Chapter 4- Sophie

Walking up to the bar I take a seat next to Kain, "Why so crabby out there Kain, we just defeated a bunch of pirates. I thought you would be happy."

"Yeah, but then it got me thinking about how great the powers are and then how I wish I had them earlier and then them."

"Kain you don't have to think about them, we are in a whole new dimension, in a place which we could have only dreamed of, we are members of the Straw Hat Pirates and we have powers. Forget about them."

"Yeah, well in the mean time I mean to get hammered and forget."

"No, don't."

"I'm sorry but I'm doing it anyway. So you may as well join me, Two Sake's please."

"Sure, they are on the house for getting rid of those pirates and leaving us the money needed to rebuild with." Bringing over the cup's she looked at us. "I know as a bar owner I'm the wrong person to say this but alcohol will not solve any problems."

"I know." downing the cup he gets up as the crew begin walking into the bar followed by Akoiji. "Sorry guys for being such an asshole after that fight."

"Its O.K. Sophie said the reason why."

Turning around he looked at me with fury in his eyes. "WHAT DID YOU TELL THEM!"

"Only that you have not had an easy life up till now and that you have reasons to act cold to people."

"Did you mention it."

"I said about the outcome but nothing about what actually happened."

Kain suddenly turned around and began walking out, "I don't need your pity." Stepping outside, he turned left and went out of sight.

I began after him before being stopped by Nami. "He needs to be alone right now, I know I've been through this before. Give him a few hours to calm down. I mean we are here for another 11 hours."

"He has never shouted at me like that, I don't know wh… today is the anniversary of it happening. I am such a fool."

"Is he really so ashamed of his scars so much that he has this reaction."

"I have only seen them when someone set his shirt on fire for another 'prank'" sitting in the nearest chair I look at them. "All of you have scars from doing or protecting the thing you love. Kain was scarred for simply being different."

"But we have met people like that, Hatchi for instance. he was a slave and was beat."

"Yes but they had the satisfaction of seeing their assailants punished. Kain's Father refused to press charges due to it being his bosses child who did it to him." Standing up I begin to walk out of the door, "I think I should stop talking about this stuff now, I take it Akoiji is coming with us until G5."

"I don't trust him." Replied Luffy, "So …"

Suddenly Kain burst around the corner, breathing heavily "Guy's… Pacifista…Admiral Kizaru… Destroying everything… Captured the Sunny"

As we stepped outside we saw the town on fire. "How can the World Government do this to people living in fear of Big Mam."

"They need to show that they are strong and need to be feared."

"Lets first save the Sunny and then we can save the town."

"Yes, the government will get everyone together and then will execute the leaders of the town for bowing to pirates and then will destroy all pirate ships in the harbour."

"I think we should split up, half stay at the town, and half go rescue the Sunny, I think it should be split as Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, Akoiji, Franky and Kain, should go after the Sunny." Seeing Nami and Usopp's faces of disbelief I elaborate, "Keep the most powerful away, make them take it easy."

"But surely one person who is powerful should stay."

"Yeah why do you think I said Chopper should stay, worst comes to worst he can use monster point."

"Yes. but…"

"Hey I'm taking the same risk as you, because I'm staying with you."

"Why is Kain & Akoiji going to the Sunny,"

"Because, the marines have no idea that we have 2 Logia's and one of them is an Ex-Marine Admiral. keep the element of surprise."

"Fine. Lets go." Replied Kain. "Lets, go get the Sunny back." With that the group ran away towards the hill.

"Zoro, not that way."

With that group gone I turned to Nami, Robin, Brook, Chopper & Usopp. "Guy's I think we should be on damage control, get people on our side. Nami, make it rain and put out the fire's, Brook Robin waylay any Enemy soldiers."

"Alright" they say as they begin to leave.

"Chopper, find any injured town's people and help them."

"O.K." he said changing into walk point.

"Usopp, find the marines cannons and put them out of action."

"What about you Sophie, what are you doing,"

"I'm going to prepare for the execution and the return of the guys."

"O.K."

"Oh and if you are about to be captured shoot a flare upwards and I will come help"

"Alright." He said as he ran off

'well time to get to work' I thought stepping through the nearest building. 'Time to find a suitable weapon'

Walking through several more building's I come across one with a jail cell, it looks like it was recently burning, but was now drenched. I guess Nami is doing her job, I mused, seeing the stairs going down I decided to check it out.

"Let's go down the easy way" I say to myself, vibrating my cells to phase through the floor. Landing next to Nami.

"I thought you were putting out the fires."

"I was until I found this massive safe and wanted to know what was inside." she said with beli symbols in her eyes.

"1 second" I say as I phase through the wall. I come out into a room filled with weapons. Turning around I phase my hand through the lock and grab Nami's arm pulling her through.

"I thought you had the power of cell vibration. Not walking through walls."

"When you vibrate fast enough you can simply step through walls, or fall through the floor."

"Cool. you need to stick with me then, since I'm the cat burglar."

"Yeah well I was looking for a suitable weapon for me. looks like this is the right room."

"Oh I thought it would hold the town's money."

"From what I could guess this is the towns police station so this must be their armoury." I begin looking at the racks of swords and gun's. "I think I will be best with a dagger and a short katana, help me look for some."

We begin searching down the rows. Axes, sabre's, rifle's, cannon's. Nope none of those, then I spotted a wooden box tucked beneath the sabre's. Pulling it out I reveal a short katana it had a floral tsuba. I picked up and read the card next to it. Choujin Koukon. (Withering Dusk) O Wazamono Grade.

Picking it up I draw the sword, marvelling at how light it feels and how well it fits in my hand, it seems to move on its own, I swing my arm and slice a rifle in half. "I like this blade. Hey Nami I found a short katana, only the dagger to go."

Putting my new blade on my waist I begin to look again. "Hey Sophie, I think I need some help." I run towards the source of the call and find Nami with her Clima-Tact out with a group of marines in front of her with two on the floor injured. "Glad you could join us Sophie, mind helping."

"Sure." I say as I draw my blade. "So these guy's get to meet my blade first." speeding up the vibrations in my body I increase my bodies speed by decreasing my density. Appearing behind the marines I stab each of them in their right shoulder causing them to drop their weapons. I then slice my sword across the back of their knee's. "Immobilizer."

"Stay out of this" I hear from behind. "How dare you do that to my men." I allow myself to be phased just as a giant hammer passes through my head. I perform a backstab and meet flesh and a marine collapses behind me.

"So Nami. why didn't you just strike them with lightening."

"I didn't have enough time and I also found some dagger's for you." she turned and pointed at several small wooden boxes. "Look for the highest grade dagger there is."

We begin searching through the boxes until I have a strange feeling as I touch the one wooden box. I open it to reveal a short curved dagger with a yellow and red flower to represent the sun. I pick up the card and read. Ketatamashii Keimei (Piercing Dawn)Ryo Wazamono grade.

"Dusk and Dawn, thats perfect."

"What did you say" Asked Nami. "Did you find one."

"Yes I did. Nami say hello to my blades. Choujin Koukon, Withering Dusk and Ketatamashii Keimei, Piercing Dawn."

"Dawn and Dusk. Is that why you picked them?"

"No, they seemed to call to me. It seemed right." Sheathing my blades I grab onto Nami's arm. "Lets get back to work then." I change our density and jump up through the ceiling.

We exit on the surface right next to Brook and Robin. "Nami, Sophie. Where did you come from" Asked Robin. "1 Sec. Mil Fleur,Gigantesco Mano" Sprouting two giant hands from the ground she starts slapping whole squads of marines out of the way.

"We were in the armoury underneath us. Getting me some new weapons."

Just as i said that a red light appeared in the sky. "Nami, continue putting out fires. I have to go help Usopp."
