Everyone was already out on the deck when Killer and Delta arrived, including a few crew members she didn't recognize. Kid was leaning on one of the railings with Heat and Wire, and spoke up after the two showed up.

"So, Delta." Kid started. Delta looked up a little surprised at being addressed.

"We uh...need to find your exact position here."

"...What do you mean?" Delta frowned.

"Well..you're obviously a capable fighter, but we

need to find something for you to do. When you're not fighting." Kid explained.

"So what can you do?"

All eyes were on Delta suddenly, including Killer making her feel quite awkward.

"I um...I don't know" Delta shrugged.

"There's gotta be something, girly." Kid was starting to get short with her. She'd have to think of something fast.

"Well..uh...I can cook...I mean I worked in a restaurant. And I have some experience in weapon making, and I doodle in my spare time I guess." Delta admitted.

"You can make weapons.?" Kids face lit up excitedly.

" Well sort of..I guess as long as I have the supplies I can make some crude looking things. It's been a long time though." Delta scratched the back of her head, still feeling a little awkward. Kid's smile wasn't really helping.

"Thats...perfect." Kid's smile widened.

"Thats what you'll do then..oh and another thing." He turned to the rest of the crew.

"I hear Ace's execution is supposed to be soon. No doubt that straw hat idiot is already on his way to Impel Down."

"Are we going there, Captain?" Heat asked squinting his eyes.

"No...well go after. I want us to lay low for now. Besides, we can watch it here." Kid pointed a thumb towards the archipelago.

"Thats it. Go. Except you Delta, you stay." Kid motioned Delta forward with a large hand.

The rest of the crew scurried off. Wire headed for the crows nest and Heat and Killer headed back for the inside. Heat passed Killer quickly, barely whispering something to him.

"I need to talk to you " He mumbled under his breath and continued on, not waiting for Killer. Killer sighed a little, but followed.

They ended up in the empty kitchen, Heat was waiting for Killer with his back against one of the cabinets.

"Somethings wrong with Delta" Heat blurted when he saw Killer enter the room.

Killer scoffed a little under his helmet and folded his arms across his chest.

"Well..I mean it's not like she's normal." Heat continued

"But when I found her today, something wasn't right"

"How so?" Killer spoke up, now interested.

"When I found her I caught a glimpse of some wierd guy messing with her, kinda creepy but I didn't get a good look him, but he told her something. After I got a hold of her..she was acting really weird." Heat sounded concerned.

"She wouldn't talk to me at first but after I got her attention, she just...changed. She sounded different, she looked different. Like she hated me" Heat whispered.

"She was probably hungry.." Killer calmly joked and went over to the cabinet next to Heat to get a glass

"Killer..I'm serious.." Heats eyes narrowed.

"I'm kinda embarrassed to admit it, but..she really scared me. She looked so cold. But..then she just. Went normal for some reason. But she just looked so angry..." Heat sighed.

Killer filled up the glass with water. Still listening to Heat.

"Before Kid called us to the deck I went back and looked for her ax."

"It's missing?" Killer inquired.

"She left it in the gorge. I couldn't pick it up, but I was able to take a good look at it. Killer..there's a part of it on the handle.. it's uh..not..

"Well?" Killer interrupted looking anxious.

Heat sighed. "Something's just not right Killer. And..from what I saw today she's not alone."

Killer stopped for a moment. He thought back to all the things Delta had told him before...but what Heat said made him slightly uneasy.

"...I believe you..." Killer murmured.

"Killer, she's going to have to come clean about a lot of stuff for her own good. If Kid find out too late, she be in a lot of trouble...and I know you like her..maybe you can convince her to tell him. I don't want to try because I don't know what makes her...that..way." Heat shook his blue head.

"Maybe...possibly.." Killer mumbled, a little embarrassed by what Heat so blatantly said.

"I'll tell her" Killer sighed, putting his glass down.

Heat nodded, satisfied.

"On the other hand, she's a really sweet girl. Your lucky" Heat smirked.

Killer snorted a little and coughed choking on his water.

"...stop.." was all he managed to say, but Heat had already left the room.
