CH.3 KAD THE MAN OF SWORDS.

As the group rocket skyward Rain noticed that they just going up and a little to the right. "Hey guys what are we doing?" Yelled Rain over the rushing wind .

"We're going to drop right into the marines sort of the way Forest did when he landed on the Sunny." Yelled Back Kad as if he had been doing this every day of his life.

"look guys when my feet stop burning we're going to fall . When you land don't try to resist gravity." Shouted forest as his feet burned out and they all fell earthbound. "LET GO!"Screamed Forest as he and the others plummeted down toward his house and his family . "I got to protect them they are all I have left." Thought Forest as he hurled toward Earth.

Below them holly wielding a frying pan and Ryan standing behind her scared for his life. "I told you no he is staying here with us and we already sold all the stuff we got for, your ship , not that I would give you any of it back after what you did to our Parents." Said Holly as she raised the pan higher.

"You know that you are defying a direct order form the world Government and that would result in execution ."Replied a the Marine Captain that was in the front of about forty armed marines . The Captain had a large Sword on his hip and gray beard that hugged his face tightly.

"Again I told you no Ronjo he is staying and when Forest gets Back you will be sorry." Exclaimed Holly as Captain Ronjo stepped Back from them .

"Guess I have no chose HQ did say that if I had to just kill them both , But miss Brooks you know what happens when someone with the Doku Doku virus gets cured they are the most powerful people on the planet ."Declare Ronjo for all to hear." So men take aim and fire ."Ordered Ronjo as the marines took aim. Their rifle clicked as they chambered the round .

"Good bye Ryan Forest Were on Earth are you?" Cried holly hugging Ryan as the rifles fired.

A Wall of flame pierced the air melting the bullets on the spot. As the smoke cleared Holly could see four figure two of which looked like Forest and Kad . "Hey Ronjo I thought I told you to leave ."Said Forest with his hands balled into fists by his hips. .

"God man just leave before we give you your skinny little tail on a platter again." Added Kad as he draw his Sabers.

"And what are you going to do about it punk and see you finally have gotten more to join you." Laughed Ronjo Clownly . "Men prepare to fire." Order Ronjo as he draw his sword.

As the next volley pierced the air Rain flipped out her staff and Will started kicking deflecting the bullets .

"Look marine we are part of the of the Strawhat pirates and we are just as skilled at kick marine tail as our parents." Declare Rain as she and will stood in front of Forest ."Look Forest you take this guy we'll take care of the Rest." Said Rain as she put both hands on the staff.

"Thanks." Replied Forest as he stepped out in front. "alright Let's Dance!" Screamed Forest as his hands burst into flames.

"Come Boy let me see which is stronger my steel or your flames ,Cross fire !" screamed Ronjo as he lunged at forest. Forest deflected him with his arm and punched Ronjo in the face making him stagger backward. Forest rushed Ronjo full throttle only to be hit by the swords blunt edge.

"Cross Fire!" Screamed Forest as the flame on his hand turned Cross and he hammered Ronjo in the gut.

After an hour of the two exchanging blows forest began to get tried .

"Now take this!" Yelled Ronjo as he brought his blade on to forest . Forest dodged the first swing but the e second one land on his chest cutting a gash form his left shoulder to right hip and about an inch deep. Forest staggered back a few steps gripping his chest, Blood oozing form the wound.

"forest I'm com." Shouted Rain as she was cut off by Kad as he put his sabers in the way. "Get out of the way Kad he needs help." Cried Rain tears beginning to fill her eyes.

"no let him do this himself , besides I don't think the Forest would like it if you interfered with something that he has been trying to get rid of for years." Replied Kad as he put away his blade.

Forest charged At Ronjo landing a blow on his lower jaw . ronjo countered by slashing Forest legs giving him a deep gash on his right leg. "Ugghh." Groaned Forest as he went to one knee.

"Good bye twarp it was fun while it lasted." Said Ronjo out of breath.

"Forest." Whispered Holly as she ran inside the house.

"Holly were are going." Yelled Ryan after her but got no answer. AS Ronjo lifted his word to cut off forest's head Holly came running out of the house carrying a knife. The knife had a knuckleduster style grip and the blade was a bowie knife style . The handle was rapped with some sort of red planty material . The sword swong down toward Forest as holly throw the knife at forest. Forest Caught the knife and holding it backhand block the blow.

"What how?" stammered ronjo as he stood in still in his tracks.

" Well Captain the last time I saw you was eight years ago and that was the first time I was let out." Said Forest as he stood up but it wasn't his voice it was deeper darker in a sense. Blue flames churned around forest as his eyes turned form hazel to cobalt blue.

"Crap this isn't good . Everyone Get inside now!" Yelled Kad as he rushed everyone into the small house that forest and him shared .

"kad What are we doing in here Shouldn't we be out there helping forest?" Asked Rain as she tried to move kad form the door .

"Trust Rain that isn't forest and I don't think that he will need our help." Replied Kad a bit of fear in his voice .

"Kad What do you mean ?"Asked Rain as she backed up from him. Kad and Holly nodded at each other .

"Look I guess it wouldn't hurt you to know but forest is tri polar or he has three people inside his mind. The one you just meet was Grove Forests violent side and the second most dangerous of his personalities." Explained Kad as tears formed in his eyes.

"So what can we do now?" Asked Rain as she looked to holly for an answer.

"We just watch." Replied Kad as he turned to the window to see what had happened in the five minutes they were in the house.

Grove had gained the upper hand and had given Ronjo a couple of burns. "Look let's make this quick ."Said Grove as he lowered his stance and pulled the knife back toward his shoulder. "FLARE KNUCKLE!" Screamed Grove as the knife burst into cobalt flames and Grove Charged Ronjo. Grove drove the knifes grip right into ronjos chest . After Grove plowed through he stood still as ronjo burst into flames falling to the ground.

"Well that was Easy Did you kill him Grove?" Asked Kad as he stood in front of his friend now turned demon.

"Nope just knocked him for a long time." answered Grove as he stood up to face kad .

"So how did you get out this time?" Questioned Kad as he stared grove down.

"forest about the time he grabbed this knife had a mental lasp and he let me out." Replied Grove as he looked at Rain ."You know that your clothes are torn right Chick?" Asked Grove as he walked up to her. "Buut if you want to show me that part of you I'm fine with that too Baby." Added Grove as he looked at Rains chest.

".

"YOU PERVERT!" cried Rain she covered her chest with her arms.

"Well now I see how it is you want me in the dark alone am I right." Teased Grove as he put his hand on rains check.

"WHOACK." Was the only sound you could hear all the way to the Sunny as Rains slapped Grove across the face leaving a red hand print on his face. Grove staggered back holding his face.

"I want forest not you a Pervert and player!" Screamed Rain as she ran into the house plowing over Ryan.

"Well that went well." Said Grove as he pick himself up.

"You know bro you shouldn't talk to ladies like that It only causes troubles." Remarked Ryan as he got foot print going up his shirt.

"Sorry bro but I needed her to get lost and so we could get something said." Replied Grove as he went over to Holly and Ryan.

"And What is that something?" Asked Holly as she turned form Ryan to face Grove. His Cold Cobalt eyes still held some caring in them.

"We're Pirates now pack everything we're moving on a ship and we have no more bills free care for Ryan and honest work." Replied Grove as Everyone went into the house to pack their things. Grove Went to the fire place were the Knife s sheath lay hanging on nails. Rain was standing front of the mantle looking at a half burnt picture of the once Brooks Family eight years ago the first time grove was released.

"That was eight years ago and sorry for the way I acted earlier I was just trying to see how much you cared for Forest." Said Grove with a smirk as he lifted the sheath form the nails and put the knife back into it.

"You're ok I understand that boys your age have those thoughts and that you are different form Forest." Replied Rain as she looked into his cold cobalt eyes .

"Good we're cool than I'm going to Pack." said Grove as he went off. Rain looked at him as he walked off in more detail than she had when he was Forest . His wounds were still slowly oozing and he had a slit limp but it wasn't bad. His shorts were completely torn to shreds and his hair wasn't looking much better but it was all still all there.

About an hour after they all got pack and Got their stuff , which wasn't much, to the Sunny Grove had Started to get less violent .

"That's all of it ."Declare Will as he Lifted Ryan on to the deck.

"But I'm Not Cargo ."remark Ryan as he giggled at Wills comment.

"Well I guess that means UGGGH" Cried Grove as coughed up blood and fell the deck trembling . His eyes went form cobalt blue to Hazel .

"Grove ?'Questioned Rain as She went on both knees beside him.

"Nope I'm Forest ohhugh."Coughed Forest as Rain cradled his head on her skirt.

"Someone get Chooper !"Yelled Rain as She tried to keep Forest form Passing out .

"uuughg."Groaned Forest as he blacked out .

"FOREST FOREST WAKE UP!" Screamed Rain as shook Forest s Limp Body.
