Previously: "I told you and I quote 'Don't you know it's rude to ask for someone's name before giving your own first Wannabe Doctor-chan?'" The neko hissed up at him while doing the quotation marks with her fingers. Law met her glare with one of his own before walking away from the two.
For the rest of the meal Venus sat there silently. Penguin had tried to get her to at least talk to him but she wouldn't budge. He glanced at his captain who was also angry and showed it by glaring at the girl. Finally giving up on whatever she was doing. She suddenly stood from her chair and slammed her hands on the table. Law jumped slightly in surprise 'What the hell?' Venus glared at him her lips turned up in a snarl.
"So you wanna know my name? Fine. My name is Venus Trapp Carter." She spoke not looking away from Law's glare. She really didn't like to be challenged and Law kept doing just that.
"What?" Law asked confused as to what she said.
"My name. Ven-us. Trapp with two p's. Car-ter." She spoke to him slowly. Law frowned his glare sharpening.
"Are you speaking to me as if I were stupid?" He asked in a low tone. Venus smirked ignoring the small shiver that crawled down her spine.
"Yes." was her smug reply. A dark aura begun to surround the captain. The table fell silent and Penguin begun to freak out.
"Venus maybe you shouldn't piss the captain off so much." Penguin said, hoping to get her to stop. Venus looked at him and smiled brightly.
"Now why would I do that? He's really sexy when angry and I love the challenge." She said. Penguin blushed at her blunt comment as she begun to walk out of the room. Law quickly stood to follow her.
"Where are you going Carter-ya?" He spoke causing the neko to tense up. 'Shit, I was hoping I could just walk out of here.'
"Well, you've fed me, patched me up, and let me stay here for a bit. But I have something important I need to do." she stopped in the doorway, turning to look at him with a smile. Venus bowed to him in respect.
"Thank you for the food." With that she continued out of the room slamming the door shut behind her. Law just stood there, staring at the now closed door with a raised brow. Penguin cleared his throat and Law turned to him.
"Aren't you going to go after her captain?" Law blinked then took off after the neko. As the doctor stomped his way through the corridors, taking the most direct route that opened up to the deck. He caught Venus just about to step out through the door. He grasped her forearm, tugging her back against his chest.
"You can't leave yet. I still have to give you a check up." He said, his breath ghosted across her cheek. The neko groaned throwing her head back on his shoulder.
"I don't wanna. I don't like doctors." She whined with a pout. Law chuckled as he gazed at her.
"It won't take long Kitten-ya." She glared at him for calling her kitten. He ignores her glare and closes the door, leading her back to the infirmary. 'She's just too cute. Too bad she doesn't realize she's mine forever.'
"That's what they all say. It's like that one question a therapist always asks you." She frowned. Her statement caused the captain to look at her confused.
"You know the one where they're like 'So how do you feel about that?'." Law snickered
"So how do you feel about that?" He asked with a smirked. Venus scowled at him, slapping his arm.
"Shut up." She hissed "God that question always pisses me off!"
"Is that how you really feel?"
"Oh my god, dude shut up!" she whined 'If this were a meme he'd be making that damn troll face.'
"Oh, is this making you mad?" he was having way too much fun with teasing her.
"Dear god." She groaned to the ceiling. 'He's a meme and he doesn't even know it.'
Law smiled, watching as the neko grumbled. He looked up and realized they were in front of the infirmary. Venus frowned and begun dragging her feet, hoping it would help prolong having to enter the room.
"No, please I don't wanna go back into that room! It smells so weird!" she turned and tried to run away. The captain frowned and lifted her into his arms, carrying her through the threshold. He tossed her onto the closest bed. The neko's tail puffed up and her eyes widened in fear. After grabbing her folder off the ground, Law pulled over his rolling chair and sits down in front of her.
"Now, I need you to answer some questions." He said, not looking up from her file that was in his hands.
"No."
"No?"
"Yes." Law finally looked up from her paper with a raised brow
"What's your name, age, height, natural hair color and weight?"
"Venus Carter, 22, 5'5", black and 130 pounds"
"Do you have any alleges?"
"I am Aquagenic urticaria and Mangos." He looked at her strangely.
"You're allergic to water?" 'I'll have to run some test on this.'
"Past injuries?"
"All of them?" She said distraughtly.
"Yes. That would be expected."
" Ugh fine. I've broken ankles, fractured and broken right arm, fractured left arm, shattered my left hand, broken jaw three times and cracked head. I have also broken all of my ribs, oh I don't know how many times." she replied reluctantly.
" Do you smoke? Do you drink alcohol and how often?"
"No to smoking and I drink whenever I fudging feel like it."
"Do you take any medicines or supplements?"
"No, never had and never will. I don't even like taking pills when I have a headache."
"Are you sexually active?"
"I don't need to disclose that information to the likes of you." She growled. Law gazed at her with speculation. 'She doesn't seem to trust me.'
"Where did you come from?" Law asked ignoring his last question. Venus somewhat relaxed but she was still tempted to run.
"My mom's vigina." The neko said with a straight face staring the other in the eyes causing him to deadpan. "Are we done here cause I have somewhere I need to be."
"No I still have other things I need to do."
_ One medical checkup later_
Penguin stood across from the infirmary with Shachi waiting for Venus to get out. He had some questions that he wanted answers for. The door to the room slammed open as Venus ran out and kneeled on the ground rubbing her head against the metal floor.
"Finally! I'm free and out of the dreadful room! I can breathe fresh air and not that weird smelling medical air." She screamed as Law stepped out of the room his forefinger and thumb pinching the bridge of his nose. 'I don't want her in there ever again.' He mentally groaned looking at the neko at his feet. Penguin coughed gaining his captain's and Venus' attention.
"Oh, hi Pen-Pen." She smiled up at the man.
"Pen-pen?" Penguin asked tilting his head at the nickname. Venus giggled and quickly jumped up from the floor.
"Penguin, wanna be friends?" Law frowned as the neko spoke to Penguin. His crewmate smiled at her and nodded his head.
"Sure let's be friends." Shachi whined with a pout.
"Wait what about me?" he asked.
"No thanks." She said plainly. Shachi went and sat in a dark corner, depressed. She smiled softly as he circled the ground with his forefinger. Bepo showed up beside the Penguin and Law.
"Me too?" the bear asked with light pink cheeks.
"Aw, sweetie you've always been my friend!" She smiled brightly, pulling him into a hug.
"You know, it's been a long day why don't you stay here for the night and we can all go help you do what you need to do in the morning." Law spoke up as she cuddled with his first mate. 'I don't want to piss her off. She'll end up leaving if I do.'
"I'll stay but only until tomorrow." She says with a straight face. Law smirked internally having thought he won this time.
"Bepo. Take Carter-ya to the room across from mine." Law ordered the polar bear.
"Aye Aye Captian. This way Carter." The bear started to walk down the hall.
"Just call me Venus sweet heart." The neko responded.
"I'm sorry." The bear suddenly became depressed.
"You have nothing to be sorry about." Venus said hurriedly to fix the first mates depressed state. As they were walking farther down the hall Law turned to Shachi.
"Watch her and make sure she doesn't escape." He ordered in a hushed voice. Shachi nodded, the three men unaware the neko had heard them. 'This isn't a good idea. I have a bad feeling about that order.' Penguin thought with a frown.
_Time Jump_
Around midnight Venus was within the room Law was letting her stay in. She was having trouble sleeping due to worrying about her sister. A smirk slowly appeared on her face as she thought of a funny prank to pull on Law for revenge for trying to keep her locked in the sub as his bitch. Quietly, she made her way to the locked door and knocked on the metal. Shachi jumped at the sound and cracked the door.
"Do you need something?" He asked.
Venus smiled softly at him her eyes glowing as she ran her index finger from just below his chin. He gulped, tensing at her touch and face turning bright red.
"Hey Shachi, do you wanna have some fun?" She asked in a sexy tone, stepping closer to the door. At her words blood started dripping from his nose and Shachi collapsed to the floor, unconscious. Venus blinked dropping her gaze to the heap of man at the base of her feet.
"Well, that was easier than I thought it'd be." She said, stepping over Shachi. With a smirk she kneeled in front of Law's bedroom door, taking out her lock picking equipment from a pocket on her shorts. Within the next few seconds the lock on his door clicked and she mentally cheered while opening the only thing blocking her revenge. Venus slowly entered the room making sure to step softly on the floor. She closed the door and relocked it. A desk in the far left corner sat next to a black couch. A queen sized bed with black sheets and a white spotted fuzzy comforter sat against the far wall. In between his bed and the couch sat a small table with a black lamp sitting on it. Along the wall next to where she stood was a long bookshelf that ended at the foot of the bed. There was a door to her left that caught her attention slightly. As Venus walked past the door heading for the desk her ears picked up the sound of running water and she tensed, freezing midstep. After a second of her just standing there unmoving the water shut off. 'Shit gotta hide!' Her eyes locked on to the bed and she flung herself under it, crawling all the way to the wall. The door opened as light seeped into the dark room. Her body froze like water in the middle of winter. She sees Law's bare legs and the bottom edge of a white fluffy towel as he steps closer to the bed. 'Shit he's gonna find me. Why can't I blend in more?' She thought squeezing her eyes shut. Her body begun to heat up and her bones felt as if they were changing. Venus mentally gasped at the weird sensation.
"There's something off and I just can't place what it is." He speaks up and turned around to look around the room. "I guess it's been a long day. Where are those damn sleeping pills?" he questioned walking over to the night stand by his bed. She heard the opening of a drawer and the sound of pills within a bottle. After a couple seconds her ears picked up him gulping and the bottle being placed in the drawer once again. With the echoing of his drawer being shut, her eyes widened as the towel fell to the floor. Her black fur turned pink and she covered her eyes with a paw. The bed above her compressed as the springs of the mattress screeched at the weight. She suddenly she hears a scraping sound against the metal floors. Lifting her paw from her face, Venus caught sight of Law's hand dragging a previously unnoticed trunk from under the bed between his legs. 'Man, I wish that trunk wasn't the only thing between his legs.' Venus' jaw dropped and her tongue stuck out as she shook her head. 'Gross I know I'm perverted but not for an asswipe like him.' Law stood back up from the bed, slipping on a pair of sweat pants that he had grabbed from the trunk. She watched him push it back under the bed before she felt him lay down as the bed sunk. Venus stayed where she was for about an hour, making sure that when she moved he wouldn't be awake. Slowly, time ticked away until finally she deemed it safe to move. With her new feline body she crawled out from under the bed hearing the captain's soft snores from above her. The neko shifted back into her human form and as silently as she could she made her way over to the desk. Movement from the bed caused her to freeze as Law's gruff voice echoed around her.
"Fuck. So good." He moaned lightly and her face turned beet red as her body begun to heat. 'He's having a wet dream, shit I picked the wrong night to do this.' She shook her head and got to work. After finding a glue like substance she began her prank with a smirk. About two maybe three hours later she had finished with her prank. Venus gazed at the man and smiled softly. His hat laid on the bedside table. This was the first time she had ever seen him without it covering his dark blue locks. She reached for the hat her gaze not leaving Law's face. 'I can't deny that he's extremely handsome and a little bit kind for at least letting me stay for the night.' She thought moving towards the door her treasure in hand. 'I can't stay though, I have to find Lily and make sure she's safe and out of harm's way.' The neko snuck out of the room and into the hall. Her blue eyes took in the now sleeping man on the ground in front of her door with a frown. She would have thought he'd go find her when he came too. With a shrug she entered her room and crawled into the bed. She didn't feel like taking in the room. Instead she felt her eyes grow heavy before Venus decided to succumb to the sleep that plagued her body and mind, clutching the hat to her chest tightly.
_ A few hours later & POV change (Law)_
Law groaned as his body begun to awaken. He went to move his arm only for it to be yanked back. His steel grey eyes shot open and he looked to his right hand. Metal cuffs around his wrists held him to the bed. Veins begun to pop up on his temples as his gaze traveled from his hand to around the room. His desk was stuck to the ceiling and as he could see from where he laid, or well stood seeing as his bed was attached to the wall, that his couch and book shelf were left alone.
"Room." He spat, anger radiating from his body as a familiar blue half sphere appeared from his hand. "Shambles." His body vanished and the cuffs dropped against the mattress as he emerged in front of the door. With a glare firmly in place Law grabbed his pull-over as he opened his door to reveal a sleeping Shachi lying on the metal flooring of the ship. Law dragged his hand down his face from his forehead and groaned. Below him Shachi began to wake up and he groggily looked around. He saw the man flinch when his gaze locked onto his captain's barefoot.
"Care to explain why you're sleeping and not watching Carter-ya?" Law stated his eyes cold and malicious. Shachi quickly stood from the floor stuttering out a response.
"C-captain! Venus knocked on the door so I opened it thinking she wanted something b-but she asked if I wanted t-to have fun which shocked me. I remember my nose bleeding and then everything went black." Law raised a slender brow his arms crossed over his chest. 'I'm starting to regret being nice to her.' He held up his tattooed hand signaling for Shachi to be quiet.
"I understand, go to your room and get some sleep I'll handle the rest of the watch." Law ordered glaring at the door the stood between him and the source of his anger. Shachi scurried out of the way and bolting it to his room while Law just kept his gaze on the room Venus was residing in at the moment. He pushed open the door and entered the room without even bothering to knock. The room was plain with dull grey walls, ceiling, and floor. A twin sized bed laid against the far wall and a side table next it. Lying on the semi firm mattress were a cluster of white pillows and a black patch of hair poking out from under the blankets. His bare feet padded against the cool floor a he made his way over to the sleeping girl. He pulled away the covers to reveal the slow breathing neko. His steely grey eyes softened as some of his anger dissipated while staring at her gentle sleeping face. 'She even cuter when asleep.' He thought as his gaze traveled down her form. Law blinked as he caught sight of his hat that should have been on his bedside table. 'Interesting. I have a feeling the only reason she followed me this far was cause of my hat.' With a raised brow he sat at the end of her bed with a smirk. His anger had returned once he saw his hat within her grasp. Venus groaned her mind waking from its slumber as she kicked out her legs. Her eyes shot open at the soft grunt that was not her own.
"Kitten-ya, I believe it's time for you to wake up." Law's voice echoed in the small room. The neko tumbled out of the bed dragging the covers with her. She gazed up at him with wide surprised blue orbs. In a split second her surprise vanished only to be replaced by pure red anger.
"Damn it! You fucking ass how the fuck did you get in here? Hell, did you even fucking knock!?" She roared claws shooting out as her tail puffed up. Law leaned back shocked by not only her anger but also her language. 'I can see why she thinks I'm sexy when angry, she's just adorable.'
"Now the reason I'm present in your sleeping quarters is because I would like to know why you were in my room last night?" The doctor asked with a blank face.
"I have no idea what you are talking about I have been here all night." Venus stated confidentially
"Oh, so Shachi just lied to me, his captain, then?" Law asked with a raised brow. 'That rat.' The neko mentally groaned.
"I don't know what he told you but I was asleep. Maybe he was just imagining things or it was a dream." Venus patted herself on the back for the smart remake and not stuttering.
"That very well could be the case, seeing as he was asleep at your door, however unlikely due to the fact my hat still being in your hands." Quickly the girl hid the hat behind her back.
"Oh Doctor-chan your hats missing. I wonder where it could have gotten to?" Law sent the girl a deadly glare.
". . . Kitten-ya give me my hat, NOW!" Law ordered abruptly. The neko took off, with the hat in hand . Venus gripped the door frame using it to swing her body around to the other side. She just ran aimlessly through the corridors with the captain on her tail. After about four minutes of going through the ship, Venus soon found the kitchen. Barging into the room full of people with Law right behind her breathing hard, the girl opened her mouth and shouted.
"Everyone has to play hide-n-seek and I'm the seeker!"
"No -huff- we- huff - are-huff-not!. . . Law finally caught his breath ". . . Give me back my hat."
"You only get your fluffy headwear back if you beat me in hide-n-seek."
"Not happening."
"You and your crew don't play and the hat gets it!" Venus smiled smugly, looking Law in the eyes and drawing her claws out with the white fluffy spotted object hanging in the other. Law lifted his hands in surrender.
"Fine. Crew go and hide, we are going to play the stupid game to get my hat back."
"Aye, Aye Captain." The crew said simultaneously.
_Two minutes later_
"READY OR NOT HERE I COME!" Venus roared loudly. 'Kay. Now that they are hidden, it's my turn to disappear." With a smirk she began to make her way to the exit of her metal prison. As she walked she hummed a tone she had heard from her sister. 'I miss Lily.' she pouted shoving open the door and stepping out into the morning sunlight. Venus took a really deep breath and smiled lifting her hands into the air.
"Finally I'm free!" She laughed and ran over to the edge of the ship. Lifting her legs up and over the railing, the neko jumped. Venus landed on her feet, rolling so that she didn't get injured. Quickly she stood from the ground and begun to stroll away from the yellow contraption and through the groves taking in the island as she walked. After about 20 minutes of looking around she spotted a club with a long line out front.
"Oh? That sounds like a fun!" She laughed skipping closer to the booming bass coming from inside the large building. However as she caught sight of the two bouncers, she frowned not liking that she would have to wait in line to get in. 'Shit now that just won't do. By the time I get in there Doctor-chan will have found me.' With that she smirked going for her rather interesting plan. 'That's where sneaking in will come in handy. 'Might as well give it a shot.' Venus snickered and made a beeline for the back of the club.
_POV change (Law)_
It had been about fifteen minutes after Venus had yelled 'ready or not here I come.'. Something seemed off about the neko though. 'Wasn't she a cat? Finding us should be easy for her, in fact her abilities would make her a master a hide-n-seek. That bitch just tricked me!' Law was fuming from the new information as he exited his hiding spot.
"Everyone gather on deck immediately!" The captain said into an intercom, his voice echoing around the quite ship. Once everyone was present on the outside, Law started to speak to his men.
"Kitten-ya tricked us and now we have to find her. Not only for my hat but also for her punishment of thinking she could possibly get away with this. Shachi, Penguin and Bepo come with me, half of you search the island the other half stay near the ship and watch for her." Law turned to his first mate, "Can you pick up her scent?" he questioned, and the polar bear sniffed the air.
"Aye Captain this way." Bepo started walking off the ship smelling the air every once in a while. They followed the white bundle of fur all the way to groove seven behind a loud club.
"It stops here Captain." The bear informed Law.
"Good job Bepo." The doctor says calmly.
"Captain I don't want to go in there, it's loud and smells weird."
"That's fine you and Shachi stand guard out here just in case Kitten-ya tries to escape." The Surgeon of Death ordered the two.
"Hai" Shachi responded less than excited not to see the beautiful half naked girls dancing, while Bepo did a little happy dance.
"Penguin let's go." The man followed his captain around to the front of the club.
"Captain, how are we going to get in?" Law looked over his shoulder and smirked. Without a reply the man walked up to the bouncers. They look at the thin man with a glare. The next events happened so fast no one could see anything after the initial blue bubble.
"If you don't try to kick me out I will put you back together. You see, I'm not in a good mood and looking for someone, but you aren't my targets so I will forgive your ignorance and attempt to do your job. Understand?" Law asked creepily. The disembodied heads shook as best as they could, allowing the doctor to walk past quickly fixing them up.
The sleep deprived man stepped into the building, it reeked of sweat, alcohol, sex and drugs. 'Absolutely revolting. How could that girl stand this with her sensitive nose and ears?' The two men made their way through the string of bodies to where the bar was. Law was planning on asking the bartender if he had seen the girl when he spotted his hat, the captain noticed her gaze in his general direction. The doctor thought he was spotted before he could sneak up on her, however upon noticing her blue orbs locked onto someone behind him. Law turned to see a familiar small girl leading the way in front of Eustass 'Captain' Kidd and his crew.
