Chapter name to change because it sucks. So yeah part two is here, and I hope you guys are enjoying the story so far.

Time now for the meeting, and I'm sorry for the long set up in the previous and current chapter. However, I consider myself a good writer and wanted to give a solid base to the rest. Now, enjoy.

"Hey Alvida!" exclaimed Buggy, running over to his ship mate. She was casually lounging in the sun in a bathing suit, her wide hat pulled down low and a glass of rum next to her chair. Alvida sighed, and looked solo meeting Buggy's painted face. "How about I drop an anchor in your port?" he suggested, winking blatantly. The female pirate sat up, lifted up her hat, and turned. "Buggy... I.."

"Yes yes?" answered Buggy excitedly, as she reached down for something. A moment later, Alvida's iron mace swung around and smacked into his stomach. He didn't have time to let out an oof before he flew away through the sky, body coming apart. "Bastard, as if I ever would..." steamed Alvida, settling down again. "Poor Captain" said Cabaji somewhere out of her line of vision, and got on his unicycle to fetch his boss. "Buggy has won not so much as any battle, and he expects me to go out its him?" thought the female pirate, resuming her previous position.

She needed a strong young man, one who could toss away Marines like ants and challenge the world. Like her dear Luffy... but he had vanished, and with no word of him the trail had gone cold. "That isn't the only thing that has" she thought to herself, and sighed again.

\v/^\v/

"Soru" whispered Coby, and pushed off the ground, disappearing a moment later. "What?" exclaimed the pirate captain angrily, looking around for the young marine. Cries of pain suddenly sounded from behind him, and he turned, seeing his men scattered to the floor like bowling pins. The young marine withdrew his fist, and suddenly appeared again, going to a single crew member and kicking his chin, dashing between his subordinates.

He heard the sound of blades, and the pirate drew his sword, countering the visored youths kukri swords. The young Marine moved fast, however, and in a few seconds the pirate Captain felt his blade fly out of his grasp, the last of his men falling. The two teenagers flanked him, and he fell to his knees, begging them for mercy: who were these Marines?

"Hichichichi Good job you too" laughed Vice-Admiral Gharb Zenatta, patting the twhouses on their shoulders. "Redbeard the Knife, you are under arrest" yelled the VA with such force the pirate was knocked back. "Take him in, and let's go get a drink" he called to his men, but Coby and Helmeppo looked at each other. "Gharb-San, it's only 3 o clock. Isn't it a bit too early?" suggested Helmeppo, but the Vice-Admiral was already heading to a tavern, not hearing the marine's protest.

"Erm, I guess we just cuff him and put him in holding, men" suggested Coby to the marine soldbeginner them. "Understood, Lieutenant" they replied, saluting, and took the pirate away. Coby then disappeared,andHelmeppo went back to the ship.

While Gharb drank merrily, Coby got the bartenders attention (The man amazed at how much he drunk). "Do you know where Iron Mace Alvida is?" he asked, and the bartender wiped down the table, wondering how today has become so peculiar. "Can't really say, word is she's hanging around with Shichibukai Buggy, whose just going all around the Grand Line. They say he's searching for Straw Hat Luffy, and no, I don't know where he is either" added the bartender, causing Coby to wilt slightly. "Are they focusing on any specific islands?"

"Well, they're apparently going to the locations he visited. I think they were in Alabasta, last I heard."

\v/^\v/ - a few days later

"Gyahahahaha, run you flashy fools!" yelled Buggy triumphantly, standing on top a mound of defeated pirates. His new crew, the Impel Down escapees, leaped and yelled battle cries as they took out their opposition. "Look at how much money I'm getting from the Marines" laughed Buggy to Alvida afterwards, his comrade dressed in her usual attire of pants, cloak and hat. She leaned on her mace. "You're not doing anything though" she pointed out, and Buggy stopped in the middle of his happy tirade, falling to his knees in depression. "Alvida-neesan..." he pleaded, and then stood up. "Doesn't matter, might makes right, gyahahaha!" laughed Buggy and walked past her.

The hot heat of the Alabastar desert slid over her skin, the hat blocking most of her slim body from the harmful effects. She should tan more later, make herself even more beautiful. It had been easy being a pirate, Buggy taking up most of the flak with his little soldiers who were at his fingertips. The man was weak, but he could manipulate like no one else. If she liked that in a man... maybe. Maybe something would happen, but he was a coward, and would never be able to hit her, or let along touch her. And it had been so long...

They partied well that night, even the most serious of Buggy's Impel Down crew brought over to the funny side of being a pirate. She enjoyed a few mugs of ale, but couldn't eat much, still thinking about how lonely she was. "Captain Buggy, Captain Buggy!" exclaimed a voice suddenly from behind her, and the clown pirate listened to his subordinate. "How can you, my flashy crew, be taken out by one marine? Go back and bring me his head!" shouted Buggy, stamping his feet and shoving the man away.

"Rokushiki" exclaimed Coby as he dug his finger into the pirates knee. The man fell down, and the marine, or ex-marine now he wasn't sure, stepped past him. Was it providence, or some higher power, that had led the ship he was on to the very place he wanted to go? Coby felt a tad guilty at leaving Gharb, but carried on anyway: he was an man after all.

As he took out another pirate, he wondered what he wold actually do when he met her? He hadn't the foggiest idea what drove him to her. He wandered near the party, and turned to the noise. Coby stood there stiff, pink hair held back y his trademark bandana, and looked at the revellers, seeing too many pirates around the fire, the cold air blowing around as Night fell on Alabasta. "Captain Buggy, Jim and the others haven't come back" commented Mohji, interrupting his captain's drink.

Thoughtfully, Buggy scratched his head with a disembodied hand, and looked into the night. "Let the man come to us then. They might provide us with some entertainment" he suggested, and all his crew cheered. "That's our Captain!" "Always looking out for his men!" "Kanpai!" called out various crew members, everyone fooled except Alvida. Buggy was just scared of facing the man alone, and that was all he was doing.

'Nobody else has a mace like that' thought Coby, hiding in a palm tree discreetly. He had finally worked out why he had come, and what he would do. If that didn't work, well, he could take all of them out all out in the end. Win win.

"Alvida-neesan! Captain Buggy! There's someone hiding in that tree!" shouted one of the men, and Coby promptly fell out of his hiding place, getting up a moment later to dust himself off. Despite most of them being half drunk, every pirate took out either a sword or pistol, and pointed it at Coby. "Damn" he thought, and looked straight at Alvida. The strong determination and unflinching gaze reached deep into Alvida's body, and rekindled the fire that Luffy had set alight when first met: and he hit her.

"So, you reveal yourself at last, you flashy Marine. Too bad you're going to die. My loveable followers, Flashy Rush!"
