Chapter 5:
This girl is going to give me a headache, Law thought to himself as Ivy tried to explain why Bepo had followed her. "Okay, he can stay Miss..." "Black, Ivy Black." "Miss Black, will you take a seat on-" Law cut off when Ivy skipped past him and plopped down on one of the infirmary beds like it was a simple check-up. Law smirked as she scanned the tables with fascination then her eyes landed on him and the smile on her face turned into the grin of a fox. Bepo who was standing stared as the girl grinned and he had to blink twice because he swore he saw fox ears appear on her head. Ivy beckoned for Bepo to walk over to her and he complied, the last time she was near him he had gotten scratched behind his ear and he had liked it. As he drew near she lifted her left arm and Bepo watched as it transformed into a paw that resembled his own. Law couldn't see her because Bepo was blocking his view but he watched with a surprised look as Bepo visibly flinched away from the woman on the bed. Ivy somersaulted backwards off the bed and landed on the floor with both of her arms transformed. She walked over to Law and smiled sweetly then her arms morphed back to normal and said, "What do you want to know Master Law?" Law looked slightly confused by this and she elaborated for him, "I'm pretty sure that we are submerged so... What do you want to know? I am your prisoner as of now so I am obliged to follow commands and answer any question. I was sold to you, even if you didn't pay for me." Law then recomposed himself and motioned for her to sit back down. "Miss Black," "Ivy is fine, just so you know." "Miss Ivy, did you eat one of the devils fruit?" "Yup! I ate the kuma-kuma no mi late in the night just before I was brought to the auction house." Law raised his eyebrows at this and she said, "I was brought in the night of the actual auction so I was only there one night and I didn't use my powers to escape because I didn't have a good understanding of them yet." Law nodded then casually asked one of the questions that he was dying to know. "Can I see your tattoo? Also, I would like to know you age, weight, height and any past injuries you have had." Law was shocked when Ivy only nodded and then while shrugging off her jacket she said, "I am 19 years old, I weigh 146 pounds and I am 175.26 cm tall." She finished pulling her arms out of her sleeves and she clutched the jacket around her shoulders. "As for past injuries… That's a story for later." She pulled off her jacket while angling her left shoulder away from Law and set it on the bed. She placed Aka on the jacket before turning in a complete clockwise circle, and when she turned to face him she found him staring at her left shoulder. "Law?" Ivy waved her right hand in front of her to get his attention. Law snapped out of his trance and smirked at her expression before he grabbed her left arm and turned it to get a better look at the tattoo. It was his jolley rodger only around it was blood red lotus flowers and he could clearly see the slightly darker red veins that ran along each petal. He had to admit that he was impressed with her work since such detail was rare in tattoo designs. That explains why she looked so proud on stage when it was mentioned… Law took away his hand and watched as she began to stretch like a cat. "Do you know how to fight at all Ivy? Also, I would like to know if the auction host was speaking the truth about your talents." Ivy stopped stretching and then frowned slightly, "What makes you think I wasn't truthful to the guards about myself? I only answered what they asked my to answer since I had no reason not to." Law nodded his head since her answer made since and waited for her to continue. "As for my fighting skills, I have been in training since I could walk. I could show you if you want because I think that two of them you may not know." Law had a slight frown on his face as he led her to the training room and leaned against the wall as she warmed up.

Ivy had left Aka and her jacket behind and while she got warmed up she noticed that the crew had come to watch her spar with Bepo. Men, she thought as she rolled her eyes and she then turned to Law and said, "I am a tenth degree black belt in karate, a tenth degree black belt in judo, and a grand master in Muay Thai." She then turned to Bepo and said in a harsh tone, "Hit me with everything you've got or you may end up dead." Bepo looked at her in surprise before he took up a fighting stance and with a battle cry he leapt at the girl.

The Heart pirates watched in amazement as a blonde chick got attacked by Bepo. Some made a move to step in between the two but stopped when the girl flipped backwards and hit Bepo under the chin with a sturdy kick while his foot hit the mat hard. The poor bear had no time to react as he held his jaw in pain from the jarringly powerful blow she had delivered. Ivy had landed on her feet and she charged Bepo after landing and the men watched as she threw punch after punch at the bear. The first one hit Bepo square in the gut and he had the wind knocked out of him but he managed to block the rest of the punches. She suddenly leapt backwards and turned towards Law and said, "I don't think that it would be fair to poor Bepo to fight him again with a new style so I was wondering if I could fight...Penguin this time?" With a hopeful look in her eyes Ivy looked at Law. She has a valid point and Bepo does look a little worn for wear. That first kick seems to have rattled him so I may have to check him for a concussion later. "Fine, Penguin! Get onto the mat!" The mechanic looked at his Captain in shock; Did he really just say that to me? How am I supposed to fight a girl? Ivy stared at him before she said, "Pathetic, you sure know how to pick 'em Law. Of all the crews you could've picked you chose the group that's too scared to attack a girl." She scoffed openly at the group while folding her arms and glaring at them with disgust. Come on Penguin, take the bait already… I insulted you, your Captain and you fellow crew members, come on! Ivy continued to glare holes into the crew and Law sat there smirking at her antics. She's taunting him by insulting me and the rest of the crew. She's smart- Penguin stepped onto the mat with a calm face but his fury that filled the room was suffocating. -and she apparently knows how to get other to do what she wants. I'm going to have to keep an eye on her. The enraged mechanic, forgetting that his opponent was a girl, charged the girl with a snarl. The fight was over as soon as it began because Ivy ducked under Penguin and jabbed his back twice causing him to lose his balance then she swiped out his feet and he landed on the mat. He growled in annoyance before getting up to strike at her again. He threw a roundhouse kick and she whacked his leg sending it back down then while he was unbalanced she grabbed his collar, kicked his leg up and flipped him over her shoulder. He hit the mat with a thump before she flipped him onto his stomach with his arm straight up and pinned behind his back. Penguin had to whack the mat to call 'Uncle' before she released him. Laws eyes sparkled and seeing this Ivy said swiftly, "I can throw someone or something up to three times my own weight, so roughly 400 pounds." A few whistles sounded among the crew at the comment but they stopped when she glared at them. I think I may have scared some of the crew members with that little display and comment but they will warm up to me eventually. She mentally grinned before adding, They think I'm angry but really I'm just inwardly laughing at their antics. Ivy then turned back to Law and said, "Penguins arm is out of commission so can I have a new sparring partner?" Law nodded and she turned to assess the crew. I need someone who is wiry and quick but also has the muscle power to withstand my attacks. I could choose Bart but we need him to navigate so I guess I'll choose… "You! With the pumpkin hat and oil stained jumpsuit!"

The man stepped forward and she saw that he had wise sky blue eyes and tanned skin that was like leather. His hair was brown, wavy and short but not too short. "Names Raymond, but everyone calls me Ray. Show me what cha got girlie. Ivy growled at the insult and it sounded like a bear rather than a girl but Ray didn't flinch. She shifted into a jumpy form and she raised her fists and suddenly she seemed to be someone else because she ran towards him and he barely dodged her first punch but then he was kneed in the gut and her right elbow grazed his neck slightly as he attempted to dodge. As the fight progressed he was pushed back as he continually dodged her and he finally hit the wall she threw one last punch and it hit the metal next to his face. Ergh, I need to work on my anger release. I mixed in too much thrill and I was almost lost to the fight... How does Master make it look so easy? Ivy sighed before she glared at Ray, "Don't call me girlie ya bastard." She removed her fist and then she slapped her forehead before turning to Law. "I am so sorry… Can I go to the opposite side of this wall?" The hole was blocked from view by Rays head and Law just stared at her until Shachi went to help Ray walk off the mat. "MY BABY," was what he shouted when he saw the fist shape dent, "How did you make that dent? The metal walls are reinforced with a titanium alloy!" Law got up, frowning, and stalked over to the wall. Raymond was being supported by Ivy and they were both sweat dropping because Shachi was rushing all over the wall as he screamed "the reinforcements of the ship!" and "the alloy!" Law stopped and stared. The dent was small but you could see the imprint of the small fist in the metal wall. Ray turned to her and saw that she was blowing on her left hand. "Well, at least we know your human since that hurt ya, lass." Ivy glared at him before she broke out into a grin and said, "I think that I'm gonna like you a whole lot!" This took Ray and the crew by surprise and she just laughed openly. "Ahahahaha! You all are funny! I am so glad I got to meet you all in person! Wow, the Heart Pirates, this is gonna be fun!" She was grinning ear to ear and some of the guys where blushing because she was kinda cute like that. "Oh right, Law come over here please. I think I hit Ray too hard in the gut..." She watched his eyes slightly darken. Did that sound like an order? "Ivy," "Y-yes?!" "Follow me." Law began to walk away but Ivy had other ideas, "I forgot to mention that I'm not from the grand line, nor was I born in any of the blue seas." The crew laughed at her and some shouted "Yeah right!" and "Get real!" but Law stopped in his tracks and turned to see her looking at him with eyes that said 'I am dead serous' but they switched to happy and playful as she turned back to the crew and she laughed with them. "You got me, I was lying. Y'all are so smart!" She laughed. Law saw my eyes before I turned away so he will question me later.

Later that day they surfaced and Ivy was able to slip out undetected. She smelt the fresh sea air and frowned to herself, I can't go swimming anymore. Well that sucks! She stood there before she sighed and began to sing:
/
'In the town where I was born Lived a man who sailed to sea And he told us of his life In the land of submarines
/
So we sailed up to the sun Till we found the sea of green And we lived beneath the waves In our yellow submarine
/ We all live in a yellow submarine Yellow submarine, yellow submarine We all live in a yellow submarine Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
/ And our friends are all on board Many more of them live next door And the band begins to play
/
We all live in a yellow submarine Yellow submarine, yellow submarine We all live in a yellow submarine Yellow submarine, yellow submarine'
/
Inside the sub Law was sitting in his office reading. 'I'm not from the grand line, nor was I born in any of the blue seas' Ivy's voice echoed in Laws mind and he set down his book in annoyance. He got up and walked to the galley to find her but once he got there the first thing that hit him was the smell of burnt fish and he sighed. I really need to get a new cook. Ever since Max got that concussion he's completely forgot how to cook. Law pinched the skin in between his eyes and sighed as he asked, "Where is Miss Ivy?" They jumped at his voice but someone quickly said, "We thought that she was with you." Law glared at them before he walked out. Once he was gone the crew jumped to action to look for the girl. Law walked to the door leading to the deck and found it unlocked. He opened the door slightly and heard her sing; 'We all live in a yellow submarine, yellow submarine, yellow submarine.' She was leaning on the railing and she was smiling into the sunset. "You have a pretty voice," He watched as she jumped and she then became really flustered when she saw him. Maybe she will be fun to mess with… Law smirked at the thought and Ivy began to blush. God that smirk is so goddamn smexy! Ivy turned away from him as the sun set and Law walked towards her. I guess I'll have to ask her about what she said earlier now. Along with her past injures that she forgot to include. The sky was blocking the stars and Ivy gasped, "Fuck! Tonight's the new moon! Shit, shit, shit, not good, not good!" She turned but she only saw black and she started to freak out. "L-law?" Law touched her arm and she jumped. "What is it Miss-" He got cut off when she hugged him and when he went to pry her off she was trembling. He reached for her neck and felt her pulse speeding up at a rapid pace, She's having a panic attack, I need to sedate her and fast. Law grabbed her thighs and hoisted her up to carry her. Her legs wrapped around his waist and she moved her arms around his neck while her head hid in the crook of his neck and her fingers dug into him. She is responding to my actions, that's good. Law carried her through the door and as soon as the light spilled from the door onto them her grip loosened considerably and once the door was shut she was back to herself. OMG! Law carried me inside! He touched my thighs! While the girl was turning a new shade of red the crew had gathered and Law spoke up, "Miss Ivy? Are you alright now?" He waited until she nodded once then said, "I want you to join my crew."
/
She looked at him funny and asked, "Why do you want me?" I bet he needs a new cook, I can smell that burned fish from here... "We need a new cook because none of us can." He said bluntly and he added mentally I also want to play with you some more Miss Black. The girl brightened instantly and said, " Just give me half an hour!" I totally called that! With that she jumped over his crew head first then landed on her hands then quickly somersaulted forwards. She saved her hands by using the force of the fall to propel herself forwards, Law smirked at her retreating back before turning towards his crew, "You heard her, now move." Ivy reached the galley and made a bee-line for the kitchen. I think that I will need a new 'character' so Law doesn't get to bored... I know! Sometimes an obedient slave and some days a stubborn mule. Ivy had entered the kitchen by then and had side-stepped the sleeping cook. I can also get closer to some of his crew to get under his skim should he become to... 'attached' to me. She got out a huge pot and rummaged through the fridge and found what she needed. "Okay, I need stock, veggies, meat, and... Aha! Found the cinnamon!" She then froze and sweat dropped. I don't know about the crews allergies... But then again, Law is a doctor so why would he buy something that could cause trouble? "Well, better safe than sorry!" Ivy had already chopped all of the veggies and the stock was simmering. She slid the veggies into her gumbo and turned to the meat. She cubed the meat before browning the meat in a pan and she giggled when the oil inside popped. The meat was halfway cooked when she added it to the pot. Returning to the fridge she grabbed some cheese and bread then walked back to the counter. She cleaned the pan and cutting board before returning to her work. She grated the cheese and cut the bread into chunks before plopping it into the pot. The aroma was enticing but it wasn't done so she looked out into the galley and after scanning the room she shouted, "Oi! Can I get a word with ya Law?" Ivy knew it was more of a statement than a question so she sweat dropped. Oh please just come and please don't try to attack me for that order... Law just stared at her so she defiantly put her hands on her hips. "I can't finish until I get an answer Law." She was oozing irritation and Bepo shivered at the scent which caught the eye of everyone except for Law. Well, I am a bit curious about this scent-less dish so why not. He stood slowly and sauntered over to his new cook and she turned tail into the kitchen with him on her heels. "Allergies." Law blinked at her before he smirked and said, "Why?" I can guess why but asking may be fun. Ivy looked livid and she glared at him, He wants a reaction out of me, to see if I will be an interesting 'toy'. She smirked inwardly before she huffed in frustration and she fell back on her heels and leaned forwards. She poked his left shoulder and replied, "I need a record of any allergies your crew has so I don't send someone to the infirmary!"
