Hey it's me again StarvingJournalist! I hope that you like the second chapter of A New Era. I want to thank PoemLover for being the first person to review my story. So thanks!

Recap from Chapter 1:

"What was that!" Hancock exclaimed walking over to the window peaking through the curtains, "Shit Zoro it looks like the Marines came earlier than you expected!"

Zoro cussed, "I've got to go." I said thinking of my mom. I ran out of the room before either of them could stop me.

Chapter 2:

I ran down the streets of Parot Island, I heard screams as peoples houses caught on fire. I heard gun shots and more screams, it sounded as if the marines were worming out all the pirates killing any that they caught or anyone that got in their way.

"Hey! You!" I heard someone yell behind me. I glanced over my shoulder to see a chubby out of breath marine that was seriously out of shape. I don't think so fatzo I thought running faster. If what old man Zoro said was true then they probably after my mom.

The door to my house was slightly a jar which made me feel sick to my stomach. "Mom?" I called into the eiry silence. "Mom?" I called again flipping on the Kitchen light switch. I walked down the hall feet padding quietly. I pushed the door to my mother's room open and saw her sitting on her bed in the dark. "Mommy?" I asked sounding like a little girl again. I flipped on the light walked over and knelt beside her, "Mom?" She just kept looking ahead eyes glassy. "What's the matter?" I asked softly. "Come on you've got to get packed and Hancock will take you to a different island." Still no answer. "You remember Boa Hancock right Mom?" I asked.

I heard the door close and spun around seeing a man with three scars under his left eye he was tall with blue black hair, he let off a menacing air. By his uniform I could tell that he was a marine. "So that traitor is here" he chuckled darkly. "Not only do we have Straw Hat Nami, but the ex-Pirate Lord Boa Hancock.

I stood trembling with anger, "What did you do to my mother?" I asked.

"Nothing that she won't snap out of General Langston wants her alive." He grinned evily making me shiver.

"You are'nt taking her away" I snarled clenching my fist.

He smirked, "Like you can do anything about it." He said stallking toward me moving like a predator that was inches before catching its prey.

The door burst open and I tensed up expecting it to be more marines, but all that stood there was a guy about my age with dark hair. "She can't but I can." The guy said craking his knuckles. What's that suppose to mean, I wondered angrily.

"And who exactly are you" Scar Face snarled whipping around. Good question I thought eyeing the cute guy curiosly, he looked vaguely familiar.

"You really should get out of here" I said looking at the boy.

"What kind of man would I be if I left a defenseless woman in danger?" he asked.

Defensless? I thought surprised he would'nt think I was defenseless when I wacked him over the head a couple times. "I can take care of myself." I snapped,

"I'm sure you can," he said consolingly.

He was belittling me! I was outraged it didn't matter how cute he was, He was about to get a face full of my fist.

"Tch" said Scar Face obvisouly not enoying the fact that he was being ignored he flicked his index finger and my mom stood up, wobled, and straightened. "I'm bored of this conversation." He growled.

"Mom?" I asked startled. She didn't answer she was still in the trance that he put her under; I looked between her and Scar Face, "What are you doing?" All he did was smile evily baring his teeth at me.

"Like I told you she's coming with me." Angry I lunged at him and missed landing on the guy that had come to rescue me.

I pushed off him not even bothering to thank him for catching me and lunged at Scar Face again this time hitting him in the jaw, but I could tell that it hadn't hurt him even the slightest. My rescuer and I began attacking him together, but after I had hit him once he didn't let me hit him again. My mother just stood there the entire time eyes glazed over.

Eventually both me and the ass hat that had butted in to rescue me were breathing hard sweating, while he hadnt even broke a sweat. Scar Face just shook his head, "I warned you wouldn't be able to stop me." He smirked. In a blink of an eye he was in front of my rescuer and gave him a quick jab in the stomach, surprise flitted across his face as he was thrown across the room hitting the opposite wall and slidding down. I gasped when I saw blood.

"Wha-" Scar Face was in front of me now; he grabbed my face and put his ruined lips near my ear.

"You are too weak to even waste my energy on killing you." His words made me tremble, he raised his left hand and flicked me in the middle of my forehead, and it felt like everything in my entire body was shutting down. As he walked away from me I fell to my knees my mom started to follow him. I crawled over to my mom grabbing her foot.

"Mommy?" I cried weakly, for a moment I swear I saw a glimmer of recognition in her eyes, but then it was replaced by a vacant look.

"I'm surprised that your still concious I faintly heard Scar Face say. I heard the click-clacking across the floor. He grabbed my hair yanking me to my hair and flinging me across the room. I gasped when I hit the wall knocking the breath out of me, making me fall into darkness.

I hoped you enjoyed it please review
