Petra closed the book and decided to stop reading. She walked into the kitchen and dinning area where the cook was scolding Shachi and Penguin for using his kitchen without permission. She chuckled at them arguing which caught their attention. "Hello Petra-san." Penguin and Shachi said in union. The cook waved at her and she waved back. "Why are you here?" he asked raising an eyebrow at her.

"I just heard the arguing that's all and I wanted to see what was up." she explained. "I'll go now."

Petra walked away quickly and let out a sighed. It was awkward for her to just march in there and have them looking at her, she needed to get use to things a bit. Looking at the clock it would be about time for dinner soon. So she stayed in her room till it was time to eat, while waiting she continued reading her book. But she stopped when she heard knocking on the door. "Come in!" Petra told them and could hear the door open behind her.

It was the white bear, Bepo. "Captain said to tell you that dinner is ready." Bepo said as she got up. Petra closed the book and left it on her bed. She walked over to the bear and followed him to the dinning area where the crew would be at.

She was a little surprised to see that the crew was being loud and this didn't even annoy the captain at all! Petra sat down next to Law hoping no one got the wrong idea. The cook brought her the food along with a cup of tea. As she ate, Petra watched the crew joke around and laugh, even the two men and the cook from before were still arguing. It felt like she found other people that could make her happy other than Renee and her mother. She couldn't help but laugh a bit as the crew messed around.

Law was sat laid back in his seat with his eyes closed. It never bothered him that the his crew would joke around during a meal. One little laugh made him open one of his eyes to search who's laugh it was. He stopped scanning the room when he found out it was Petra who had been laughing. He was glad that she was enjoy time with the crew. Law closed his eye again and lightly smirked.

After dinner Petra helped the cook wash the dishes. The young woman did get to know the cook's name though while she washed the dished. His name was Joel. After helping out the cook she said good-bye and went back to her room. She went in and closed the door. Petra walked over to a mirror and took her shirt off. She examined the wound on her back and lightly touched it. Slipping her shirt back on, taking her shorts off, and jumped into bed.

The next morning she got woken up by a knock at the door. She got up and shuffled over to the door. Petra opened the door but hid her lower body behind it since she didn't have any pants on. "What is it?" she asked yawning.

It was Shachi who was at the door. "Captain said to inform you that we will be landing at another island in 10 minutes." he explained and she nodded rubbing her eyes.

"Yeah thanks for interrupting my sleep by the way." she mumbled and closed the door. Shachi walked off his footsteps echoing.

Petra slipped on the shorts from yesterday, a pair of brown boots, and brushed her hair. She walked out onto the deck and Law standing there looking forward. The young woman walked up beside him and held onto the railing. She could make out an outline of an island far away. "Why were you reading that book yesterday?" Law asked out of the blue.

"When you have a power like this, you gotta practice a bit." she explained.

"How is your back feeling then?"

Petra touched her back a bit. "I guess it feels better now."

"Petra." she said looking at him. "Hm?" he turned towards her. "You never asked my name, it's Petra."

Law nodded and fixing the nodachi on his shoulder. He seemed too serious to her. They got closer to the island every minute. The crew had to hide the submarine somewhere around the island and when they did they all got off. Captain explained that they would have to stay on the island for a while till the log post would settle to the next island. For now they all had to stay at an inn.

As they all walked in and got assigned different rooms together. Shachi, Penguin and Joel would have to share one, so that wouldn't end well. For Petra she got assigned a room with Bepo which didn't sound bad at all. Bepo was kind and he was soft since he is a bear. The captain had a room to himself of course.

Bepo and Petra walked into their room and settled in it. She was happy to see that they had separate beds. The idea of sharing it with someone else wasn't so great to her. The white bear had already fallen asleep.

She quietly exited the room leaving a sleeping Bepo behind. Petra turned around and nearly punched Law in the face from being startled til she realized it was just him. "Where are you going?" he asked. She sighed.

"You asked too many questions."he smirked slightly. "Into town."

Law nodded and took out a pouch full of ฿elly handing it to her. "Buy yourself something while your at it, Petra-ya." he said before walking off. Petra attached it to her shorts and walked out of the Inn.

Petra walked around looking through stores seeing what to buy. She stepped into one clothes shop in search for new clothes. After going through everything she bought herself a good amount of clothes for her naked wardrobe and 2 new pairs of shoes. The saleswoman put it all in a bag and handed her the change. Continuing to look around, Petra walked around the town for the rest of the day getting use to the different routes for half the day. As the sun slowly disappeared from the sky she went back to the Inn. There she entered her room and placed her bags on the bed.

Seeing that the bear was no where to be found she decided to try on her new clothes so she didn't have to wear what she wore yesterday. Pulling out all the clothes the young woman tried to see what she could wear. Petra put on a tan dress that went up to her knees and a light brown jacket. But being the type of girl that she is, she put a pair of white shorts under it, reattaching the pouch to the shorts, and white sneakers on. Today she let her short hair loose and put the rest of the clothes away in the bag. She hid the bag under her bed as knock came from the door. "Come in!"

Petra turned to see who it was and saw the familiar fuzzy hat set on the person's head. "You're back I see, and it looks like you got new stuff." Law said. She lifted her dress and he had sweat drops on his face hoping she wasn't doing what he thought. But relaxed when he saw that she was wearing a pair of shorts under her dress. Petra detached pouch of ฿elly from her shorts and threw it over to Law.

"Thanks for the money." she smiled and put her dress down as he caught it.

Law nodded. "Everyone is at the bar come on." he said in a calm matter and went out. She quickly fully hid the bag under the bed and followed her captain to the bar. Her crew mates were all either drinking sake, talking, or arguing for no reason. Petra sighed and sat in a stool. The bartender walked over to her.

"Would you like anything miss?" she asked smiling.

"Just some coffee if you have any." Petra said and placed her elbows on the counter. Resting her head on her hand. Then the bartender came back with a cup of coffee placing it in front of her. "You remind me a lot of my friend back home. She was a bartender as well." she told her.

She looked at Petra and smiled. "What was she like?"

Petra thought for a second. "Very cheerful and kind. She was helpful, always helped me out when people bullied me. Every time i walked into the bar, she would always have coffee ready for me. And she would never give up on making me smile." she explained remembering her friend Renee.

The bartender chuckled. "Well she sounds like a good friend. What was her name?"

"Her name was Renee."

"Renee-chan! Lets be best friends forever! Nothing can break our bond apart!" echoed the voice of a young Petra.

Young Renee was with an adult who was her father. "And to prove our friendship will never end, lets give ourselves a mark of friendship!" Renee said and her father had tattoo equipment with him. He planted a tattoo of a key on their shoulders. The two looked at each other's tattoo and smiled. It stung a bit but they would get over it. "Thank you papa!"

"Now everyone will know that your friendship is eternal." her dad said smiling.

Petra removed her jacket and showed the bartender her friendship tattoo. At the bottom of the key tattoo it said 'Eternal Friends'. "You two have the closest bonds i presume." she said still smiling. She nodded and put her jacket back on.

Law was hearing their whole conversation. He was sat down relaxing with his nodachi by his side. 'It's good to know that someone had Petra-ya's back' he thought and his mind went back to when he first saw Petra and she was with the bartender. He continued to listen to their talking the rest of the time until they were all tired.

The young woman was alone now because the bartender had to go rest. She was left in the room with her crew mates passed out from drinking too much or just being plain tired. Petra could hear footsteps coming closer and someone sat next to her. Law sat down next to her and had left his nodachi back at his old seat. He stared at the wall with a blank expression before finally speaking.

"So, bartender remind you of a friend back home?"

Petra closed her eyes her eyebrows furrowing. "Don't always snake your way into people's business Captain." she then sighed and relaxed a bit. "But if you want an answer then yes."

Law didn't like how she talked back but decided to let her off the hook. She surprised him when Petra took his hat and placed it on herself chuckling. The young woman liked the feeling of the hat but took it off and set it back on Law's head, since she probably thought that he didn't like someone taking his hat off. But he fixed his hat and smiled at her calmly.
