Chapter 7:

Ray looked pissed but Bepo was looking very happy. What the hell happened? She took a step closer and Ray began to drag her off. I wonder who bit him. As she was lead off she turned to Bepo and pointed to Ray with a confused look.

/

Bepo only smiled more so Ivy moved on to Ray. She had the question on her lips and was about to ask when a leg snaked out of the crowd. Ray, in his pouting, didn't see it and tripped over the black boot. Ivy quickly scented the stranger before she felt weight on her arm.

/

Ray felt confused as he began to fall. He had been looking above the crowd and now he was looking at the ground. A split second later he realized he was falling but then he stopped. He was suspended in the air a few feet from hitting his face. Why am I not hitting the ground?

/

He glanced over his shoulder to find Ivy in a stiff, yet defensive, stance. She glared at him and said, "Get up! We gonna get that guy or what!?" With a miffed look he pulled himself up and stood while Ivy didn't move an inch.

/

The crowd around them where whispering when Ivy sprang into action and her hood went up. Her nose elongated as she tried to pinpoint the guys scent when she froze. Ray has his scent on him!

/

(Ivy's POV)

I spun on Ray and ducked down to sniff his leg and I caught the smell of cinnamon but there was something else. As I tried to put a pin on the scent I was jerked up only to come face to face with Ray. "What do you think y-.…" He froze when he saw my face and I smirked then ducked back down to smell his leg again.

/

I felt him freeze and I smelt the scent on the ground. I crawled over before I sniffed it. I probably look like a blood hound right now. I shook my head and took off on all fours for a few steps before I stood up and continued after the scent like there was a hell hound at my heels.

/

As I rounded a corner I ran into a chest as I skidded to a halt. Ray and Bepo where a mile behind me so I was all alone. He was a tall man with a faint scent of cinnamon and oil on his worn overalls. He looked like he was about 17 and he was surprised to see me. I giggled in delight and said, "You sure we're stupid to think you could trip my friend and get away with it."

/

He smirked and said, "And what are you gonna do 'bout it girlie?" I smirked and as I raised my eyes his grin disappeared, "Do you know who my captain is?" He shook his head 'no'. With a flourished my hand and a gentlemanly bow I answered, "The Surgeon of Death, the one and only, Trafalgar Law." With that I kicked him into a wall a left to find Ray and Bepo.

/

As I ran back the way I had come I saw Bepo looking around in the crowd. I snuck up on him and leapt into his back as I saw Ray walking over to him. "Bepo have you got her scent yet?" "No-" I grabbed his ear and gave it a good scratch before I jumped off and stretched. "I got him so we can head back." They just looked at each other and I sighed. "Your both lost huh?" Bepo looked down as Ray looked to the side in annoyance and I just laughed. "Okay, I'll pick up a scent to lead us back.

/

(No POV)

Ivy was crouched down when she picked up a scent that had her perk up. "Law" was all she said as she grabbed Bepo and Ray by the hand. She dragged them off and as she followed the scent she began to see the color of the scents and she followed the storm gray that she had labeled 'Law'.

/

She scrunched her nose and as she drew closer she recognized the stores around them. Seeing that they were so close to the docks she took off into the throngs of people crowding the docks. Ray saw her take off and he called Bepo to follow. As she neared the sub a chest suddenly stepped in front of her and she looked up. As she raised her eyes she became blind so she looked back down in a daze. "Hello lil' girl. Want to hang out with a real tough pirate?"

/

(Rays POV)

As my charge began to shake in rage I covered her mouth and pulled her into my chest and whispered, "Just be still for a sec." She shook free of me though and as I watched she took a step forward towards the sparkle pirate. I sighed in failure as I stood back and watched her step forward and say "Your a Diamond Pirate, right?" He just put on a cocky smirk and said, "Impressed by my reputation?" I then got the surprise of my life as Ivy shook her head and said, "I am not impressed in the least. Diamonds are strong but its really only highly condensed carbon dioxide. Add heat and it turns brittle then breaks." I was dumbstruck by her and so was the sparkle butt in our way.

/

As he began to open his trap in rebuttal I heard Bepo walk up. The sparkle butt went pale and said, "Lil girl... Are you a Heart Pirate?" She just nodded and he smirked and said, "So that bastard Law got himself a trophy woman. Not bad." I saw Ivy twitch and I almost felt sorry for the guy.

/

(Ivy's POV)

Did he just call me a trophy woman?! I am no piece of property! Not even to Law my fav. One Piece character! I shook as my anger overflowed and I snarled, "I ain't Laws woman, I'm a crew member on his vessel so you can shut the fuck up ya toothpick dick!" I could sense Ray trying not to laugh out loud but the sparkly toothpick didn't find it as amusing. "You BITCH!" I just laughed at his insult and said, "You call me a bitch like its a bad thing! That you best comeback toothpick?" /

He swore under his breath and said, "Hey! Control this bitch would ya? Who lets a girl talk to a man like that?" I knew this was an attempt to get Ray to restrain me. I laughed and as toothpick stared at me I said, "As if he could stop me! What a joke! No offense Ray but... Ya know." I took a step forward and I punched right into his chest sending him flying a few feet back. "Yeah, a 'lil girl' just sent you flying. Maybe you shouldn't underestimate your enemy."

(No POV)

Ivy turned to Ray and Bepo and gave a V for victory and skipped off towards the sub all happy. Ray just shook his head before following her with Bepo in tow. As they all where walking up onto the sub they saw Law coming out of the sub. Ivy looked at him and said, "Law? What is on your-" She cut off and this caused Bepo and Ray to look up. On top of Laws head was Ivy's kitten, sound asleep and looking quite comfy. "Miss Ivy, please remove your kitten from my hat." Ivy blinked, twice, and she shook her head.

/

"She looks to comfy and besides," She let out a giggle, "You look kinda cute like that. It's totally opposite from how you normally act." Law just glared at her before he was calm again and he ordered them inside the sub.

/

Once inside Law lead Ivy to his office but he passed it by and went to the next door over. "This was a storage room but its was remodeled. It's now your room, got it?" Ivy just nodded and walked in to find a small bed, a chest with a lock and a table and chairs. Ivy smiled and turned to Law and saw Aka was still on his head, she giggled before she gently peeled the cat off of him. Their eyes met and they noticed that the space between them was non existent.

Ivy smiled brightly and leaned in a bit as if to whisper in his ear.
