Max is completely terrified.
And confuse as hell.
His captain and best friend has been fighting with Whitebeard, so they can escape and sail far away from the island. Max has been expecting Ace to fly toward the ship not long after they set sail but Ace never come. And its has been past two days since they last time saw Ace. They wait until what seem to be a safe day before comeback as fast as they can before the marine know what happen. When they come back to the island. Hoping thay their captain survive and hiding somewhere, or maybe dead. Max doesn't know what he expect, but, an empty spot isn't one of them. He cannot find Ace anywhere, even the beaten up Warlord is gone. Has Whitebeard get them. Oh god,what if they torture Ace?! NOW WHAT MUST HE DO?!
And beside. What must he do to calm Rouge down. The little girl is just so mess up right now, sitting in the sand, holding her legs and crying her eyes out. Seeing this broke the entry crew heart. They maybe just began three or some months ago, they maybe doesn't know that man very well. But since they already decided to join Ace of Spade, they has swore royality to the man. Beside, the man who cares for his crew and daughter, always put their safety first before himself, is a good man, a great captain.
Max touch Rouge head gentlely before he turn toward the crew.
"Okay! Listen up guys!" He claps his hands to gather the attention of the crew, "Ace isn't here so that must be mean Whitebeard took him into their ship. Now I know what we will be doing is fu-tribblely stupid so I want to said that if anyone who doesn't want to save Ace can leave from here!"
Max wait for someone brave or stupid enough to walk away. But its better then getting left behind. Its better that way then taking any risk. Max feel so damn glad that no one has been walk away, and determination in their eyes burning like the fire of their captain devil fruit.
"Alright then! Lets pack up! Get ready! We have a captain that we must help." Said Max as he walks to the ship after picking up Rouge.
"Without plan?" Asked one of the pirate.
Max turn and look toward them, "I have a plan. I'm the First Mate remember?" He said while grining, trying his best to show his confident to the crew before continued to walk toward the ship. He then put Rouge on her bed as the little girl began to stop sobbing.
"So...what the plan?" Asked Rouge.
Max smile to her, "Rouge. We will take you to a safe place first, you can't come."
"NO! I WANT TO SAVE PAPA TOO!" Yelled Rouge.
"Listen here Rouge!" Max really doesn't want to do this, but he has to. Rouge is a strubborn girl, just like her father, cute but sometimes its a little bit overdue, "We are going to fight with the fearest and strogest pirate crews in the world! And you cannot tag along! This is not like our daily fight and run! You father told me to keep you save so thats what I will do!"
"Then don't leave me!" Yelled Rouge, "I promise my brother the time we decide to sparted, me with Papa and him with Mama, that we will try to be useful and also do our best for them! I promise him that, please Max!" Yelled Rouge once again.
"NO ROUGE! I said NO!" Yelled Max, "You won't follow us. We will bring you to the nearest safe place." With that Max walks out from the room. As much as he want to fulfill the kid wish to tag along, he can't. He already being trusted by Ace to protect his little baby angle. And Max won't ever and ever broke that promise as much as he want to. This fight will end up badly at their side. He maybe won't know what the other crew think, but for Max he is ready to give his life for his captain to reunite again with Rouge. Because since the begining, Max trust that man, and since that time when Ace yelled at him to jump along and come with him, Max already put his royality to his captain.
And he will make sure the two reunite once again. Ace better still be alive and wait for them. He doesn't want to bring home a dead body on his captain suppose to be wedding day.
OoO Line Breaker OoO
Sabo cannot hold it for much longer. There are no news of her brother-soon-to-be-husband and her little brave angle. She tried to believe at Ace, that he will be okay, he is survive and soon she will hear the news about him. Either its from newspaper or something else. She tried to act normal, eating and taking care of Rock. Its hard because everytime Sabo see Rock and Luffy, she can picture Ace and Rouge on them. Its to much to bare really.
She is so worried and uncertain.
Thats what bring her to sit in one of the cafe of Goa Kingdom. In this-disgusting-town she can easily overhear the rumour. But she has to play nice or there will be a change that her family found her. She hasn't hear anything about Ace, not yet.
But it seem luck isn't on her side today. On the corner of her eyes, she can see the most disgusting human being walking toward her place. Sabo sit up slowly and began to walk away. It maybe has been past 10 years but Sabo know for sure that man still remember her face. There a chance that man will take her back to her cage. She has to find a way out. Cannot let that man catch her again like the last time, especially when there is no Ace to kick his ass. Sabo get in the alley that not faraway and tries to make herself being invisible as she can as she watch the man that she hate the most walk away from her view.
"This is a bad idea. I have to go back to the village." Though Sabo as she keep pressing her body in the wall for more minutes, to make sure that man has gone away. She then turn around and walking outside from the alley when she bumps into someone as the two of them fall down, hard.
Sabo grunt in pain from the impact.
"I'm sorry, Lady. Are you alright?" Sabo almost roll her eyes when she hea the sweet tone from probably one of the ugly noble that crash with her, but she hold still and smile politely because its kind of weird when you are the one that crash with them and you also the one who get angry. Only the higher up who can do that.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Thank you." Said Sabo as she looking toward the man face. He has a nice look for a noble, sharp but soft eyes, an orange hair and just like any other noble, wearing a fancy cloth.
The noble smile to her and nod his head, "I'm glad then. I hope you enjoy your day." The man take her hand and kiss her palm, just like how sweet noble man would do before walking away. Sabo watch him in wonder as she wipe her hand on her dress. Even if the noble man polite and talk sweet, he just another bitchy mommy boy who though that he own everything.
Sabo just began to walk away when she see a shining object on the street from the place where the noble man landed when they crash, "A key?" Though Sabo as she pick it up and looking toward the shining object. Once again Sabo looking toward the man but he already gone. She then put the key into her pocket, "Well...I guess I have to go back. I hope Rock and Luffy won't freak out." Mumbles Sabo as she walk to the exit of Goa Kingdom, but when she get there she saw all the gunned guard are guarding the gate and sunddely Sabo find herself back into her tenth years old self when the noble burn down Gray Terminal.
"No one can leave this place. An order straight from the King." Said one of the guard as he stood there, "For all citizen, we hope that you all will come inside your house and stay at there until next information. Anyone who being found walking on the street will be aressted or shot on the spot, its The King order."
Many murmurs and whisper were being heard but all of the noble went back toward their home expect Sabo who curse and hide in one of the alley. Her only get information plan turn out so bad into cage situation. Now she only has to find away out, she hope that Luffy won't get panic over this. And also, what happen with the kingdom anyway.
"I'll just have to wait until night and sneak out." Though Sabo as she sigh and sit on the dark alleys while watching the orange sky.
The night isn't that long, and Sabo really are glad for that. She then come out from the alley and try to be as quiet and as invisible as she can. She just has to pretend that all the guard is a sneak and she is trying to steal their eggs while the sneak is eating its meal, but instead of one sneak she face up with many sneaks that not eating their meal and trying to find their prey. Sabo let out a big sigh before she run toward another house and hide beside it in time before the guards look at her as the giant flashlight being shot into her pervious hiding spot.
Sabo has to find a way out. There is no way in hell that she can sneak on the gate where all the light from flashlight pointed at there. She will be see and shot on the spot. Or not. Well, probably get shot. Every noble has lock theirself on their house and no noble are crazy enough to walk out from their house on the information of being shot on the spot.
Maybe Sabo can success if she circling the wall and find a way out. A spot thats not being guards. Sabo hold still when she hear a faint step coming from behind. If it was another person they won't notice it at all because it is a faint step and almost unable to be heard, but Sabo has spent almost all her life in the forest where many beast are living in there, hunting and aware of the things that hide behind the silence. Slowly Sabo grab the small pipe that she hide under her dress and when she feel a little touch on her hair, Sabo spun around as she then hit the person jaw hard with her pipe. She want to run away but her eyes is focus on the man that faint from the impact. Its the noble man that crashed with her early and drop the key.
She hear more footstep and Sabo went to the noble man as she pick him up, bride-style, and run away from the place to another hiding spot. Whoever this man, Sabo know for sure that he is her only ticket to go out from Goa. But first, she has to find more perfect hideout. And there is only one place on her mind, her secret heaven when she was trapped on here. The Library, the owner akways let one single window at the back being open and Sabo hope that its still being open.
And fortunately it is. So Sabo sneak inside along with the man as she then pull out a chair and find a rope before tied the man. Now, she only has to wait for the man to wake up. The noise of the front door that being open were echo loudly and Sabo curse inside her head as she hold her pole tightly, waiting for the guard to come in.
"I cannot believe it that someone is crazy enough to steal from the king." Sabo stay silent as she overhear the talks.
"Yeah. We already lucky enough to live in here, not in Gray Terminal. That person maybe has some grudge for the King." Said another guard.
"Yeah, but still, I won't even done something stupid like stealing from the King."
"What is being stole anyway. I hear from the other guard its something percious for the Kingdom."
"Well, whatever it is I hope we find him. Geez, this lazy old lady always forget to lock the window."
"Yeah, what will happen if someone sneak in and try to steal the books." Sabo watch as the guard close the window and turn around to leave but the man before groan, not really loud but this guard has a nice hearing ability that Sabo pity them as she knock the two out with her pole.
"Shit.." The man curse as he try to look in the dark and his eyes spot Sabo who walk to him, "Is that how you treat a noble?"
Sabo snort at the man acting skill, "A noble man won't be crazy enough to go out in this situation. Especially for the key that they drop behind." Said Sabo as she pull out the key that she pick and stood infront of the man, "Now tell me, who are you and what are you doing in here."
The man just stay silent before he answer, "My name is Hood. And that is a key to my family basement. My father really angry when he found out I left it behind and he won't care much about my life unless I found it."
Sabo nod her hear, "So thats why the guard discussed that something is being stolen from the King."
The man frown, "You suspect me for stealing the key from the king while in truth it is my key?"
"No. I never said that, you the one who said that." Said Sabo as she move closer.
"No. You said that." Said the man.
"Why don't we end this lies." Said Sabo, "I never said anything about the key I just assumed that The King may has the similiar problem, and there is no one name Hood in Goa Kingdom." Said Sabo, "But you want to know what give you out." The man just stay silent as if waiting for Sabo to continued her word, "Every noble in our age is a silly bitchy mommy son. And in this situation if you are really a noble, you would treat me with bringing an army or your father will hunt me down. But you didn't." Explain Sabo as she then stop in front of the man and looking straight to his eyes, "And, I know for sure it is a mark tattoed on your back." Said Sabo as she remember a line of a tattoe when she tied the man to the chair, "So again, who are you and what are you done that cause us to be trap in here."
The man just stay silent as he looking toward Sabo who stay still in front of him. A noise of Den Den Mushi was heared inside the man pocket and as Sabo move to grab it the man break free from the rope, in the same time as the library door being open loudly by the guards.
OoO Line Breaker OoO
Rouge tried to make herself stay still under the trap door of the ship. She cannot believe it that Max has tried to leave her behind on an unknow island with an unknow old smelly granny. She has make some distraction with pretend to run toward the forest but in truth she run back toward the ship and hide there. Rouge can hear some several footstep and also the crew discussing the plan to save her papa. Rouge prepare herself as she hold her small lole tightly. She maybe five, she maybe not the smartest sibling, she maybe sturbborn, she maybe just a trouble for the crew, but one thing they should know. Rouge will do everything to keep her promise toward his twin. Max should have know that when Rouge told him that she promise her twin she will do best.
After all she is a pirate. And the only command she will listen to are from her papa and her mama.
"All man, get ready!" Rouge hold her breath as she hug her pole. Her heart beat faster then she want to as she know that they already meet with their enemy. Her papa is the strongest pirate that she know, so she cannot be reckless on here, knowing her papa lost to this pirate captain. And beside her mission here just to sneak in and find her father. Hopefully nothing will go wrong.
OoO Line Breaker OoO
As the Fourth Division Commander of Whitebeard, what happen next is beyond his expectation. Whitebeard pirates is being fear in the all sea, along with Kaido of course, and no one fool enough to mess up with them, well there is some stupid pirates who think he can defeated Pops, but this is never happen.
He never though that the crew of Spade Pirates will do this stupid action, attacking their ship. Their bond must be strong enough to force this crew fighting the strongest and fearest pirates in all sea. He turn to look toward Marco who was drinking in front of him, "You will just stay here and do nothing?"
"They just a small ants, yoi." Said Marco.
"Well duh, I know that. But I'm more worried with our crew who play to far and make a hole on Moby Dick, Pops won't like that." Said Thatch while he clean the dirty glass.
Marco sigh as he stand up and went away from there. Thatch pity him so much, Marco has so much thing to deal with, first the crew, and the Pops health, and now, he has to end the play on the upstair. He hope it won't end that bad, afterall Thatch know for sure that Fire Fist Ace won't be that happy when he know they attack his crew to bad, and Pops won't beable to do take Ace into the crew. He hope anything won't go wrong.
But, they are pirates of course everything could go wrong.
Someone has escape the war upstair and running inside Moby Dick. Thatch know for sure none of his brothers and sisters will run in panic speed on the war that they can win easily, after all the real treat on Spade Pirates is Fire Fist Ace. Maybe this crew aren't that stupid, they defenitely has some brain to come inside Moby Dick. Well, at least Thatch get some part of the fun.
He pick up his knife and walk outside from the room. In time to meet up with the pirate that escape the war upstair. The Spade Pirate crew holding his sword tightly as he swore. Thatch smile.
"You think you are smart enough with thinking we will leave the inside empty." Said Thatch.
The man smile a nervouse but confident smile as he speak, "Yeah, I hope so. But turn out you also smart one to stay here and not helping on the upstair."
Thatch smile, "I confident enough that my brothers will take care all of you." Said Thatch as he watch the pirate, he look so doubtfull between wanting to attack or run away, maybe this is the change, "You come here for your captain right?" The man flinch but nod his head, "He is okay you know, we treat his wound and now he is resting." The pirate still stay silent and Thatch wait for him to say something when he finally speak.
"Really?" Thatch frown as he hear the voice that cannot be from the man, too high pitch and more like a voice from a child. Thats when Thatch wide his eyes as he looking toward the blonde hair girl with freckless who not even older then fifth years old as the girl comeout from the pirate back, looking at Thatch with blue eyes that fill with hope, "Is papa, really okay?"
In every scenario that he can think of to happpen on Moby Dick, a yound child not older fifth who tried to save his father is not one of them.
