Chapter Five
The bartender stood at his bar washing a glass today was a slow day he wondered if anyone would come in. He looked in seeing two young men walking into his pub. One of them being a blond wearing a top hat with goggles. He shook his head seeing the man did not have a shirt on; he had though a long navy blue jacket, having a cravat, and then longs shorts and ankle shoes. He looked to the other who had black long hair, an orange hat with a smile and sad face. He also wore a red bead necklace and a yellow open button up shirt.
"Hey Ace, I don't think this town will have any good ships."
"Sadly, I have to agree with you."
"Hey Ace, Sabo, why did you run off?"
The bartender's mouth about dropped, the girl who walked in hair reached just past her shoulders. She had a slim but curvy build that was easy to see thanks to her only wearing a light blue bikini top, then the fact she was wearing black shorts and boots. She turned and smiled walking over at him.
"Hey can I get a drink" she said smiling.
He looked at her freckle face smiling and saw her green eyes and smiled getting her the drink. "Here you go."
"Oh can I get to more" She said smiling at him.
She smiled taking the drinks from him and handing Sabo and Ace there drinks.
"So what are you and Anne going to do the moment you get your ship."
"We plan to head sail around and gather a crew. Once I have a good amount of men I plan to go to the grand line."
"We're hoping to run into Shanks to thank him for saving Luffy's life. What about you Sabo?"
Ace smiled "You could always stay with me you know. I would love having you on my crew."
"You know I want my own crew."
"We will have to see who gets there bounty first." Ace said taking a drink.
Anne smirked "I will be the first one to get a bounty."
Sabo laughed, "Alright well how about a toast to freedom, and living the way we want."
Anne and Ace both smiled toasting to that.
(Scene Break)
Three days later both Sabo and Ace had there own ships. She had to wave goodbye to her brother Sabo as he sailed away from them. Six months passed since that day they separated. Anne walked over to her brother, "Hey look at this." She said showing him a bounty of Sabo.
He smiled "so he was last one to get a bounty out of us."
Anne took it laughing "Did you see his nick name the deadly gentlemen. I would love to see his parents' reaction to seeing Sabo's bounty. One seeing he lived and two became a pirate."
Ace laughed and was smiling he looked to seeing all the other crew members getting winter coats on. He rubbed his arms even though he ate the flame -flame fruit was still cold. He looked over at Anne who was just wearing her normal clothes. Anne smiled and held up his jacket, "put this on before you get a cold you don't want to meet Shanks with a runny nose do you?"
Ace grabbed the coat smiling at her, "Thanks."
She looked up ahead seeing the island covered in snow and ice. Anne smiled and looked to Ace, "Hey I am going to go ahead."
"Fine, see you in a bit." Ace said as he watched Anne form Ice skates on the bottom of her shoes.
"Hey, I will tell some of his men you wish to speak to him." Anne said then jumped to the ocean turning enough of it to ice so she could Ice Skate to the shore.
"Captain, are you sure it is ok for her to go ahead of us?"
"There is nothing I can do to stop my sister. She has a mind of her own and when she wants to do something she will. "
He watched her reach the shore ahead of them. He went to go put on some warmer clothes.
They soon reached the island and Anne was there lying down in the snow. "Hey bro."
Ace jumped out of the ship landing next to her.
"Did you find out where they are?"
"I saw tracks leading up the mountain."
"Let's go."
Anne listened to Ace's crew complaining about the cold and asking him if he really wanted to go. Ace said it was something he had to do. Anne was next to him agreeing.
(Scene Break)
Shanks sat in the cave with his men he thought it would be just another boring day till one of his men came in telling him there was a group of pirates coming this way. He smirked and looked up when he saw the group at the entrance of the cave.
The boy bowed "I would like to give my greetings-"
Shanks grabbed his sword "so the super rookie came to say hello."
Anne laughed as Ace started waving his hands. "You have the wrong idea."
"Yeah, our brother is always talking about the man who saved his life." Anne said smiling stepping next to Ace.
"Wait Luffy had an older brother and sister?"
Ace and Anne looked at each other smirking. "Yeah."
"Well I guess there is one thing we can do." Shanks said smiling. "Let's have a banquet."
Shanks crew cheered and soon all of them were sitting around talking. Shanks crew was talking the spade pirates telling them stories of the sea.
Shanks looked at Anne, "how are you not cold?" He looked at her, seeing that she was not wearing winter clothes at all.
Anne smiled and let her self turn to ice. "I ate the Ice-Ice Fruit." She said turning back to normal.
Ace looked at her, "I always thought you had a different devil fruit from what the papers say about you."
Ace looked at her "Sis has always had a strange power."
"Yeah I was able to do weird things before I ate the fruit."
"What kind of things?" Shanks asked now interested he looked like a kid about to be told a story.
Anne smiled "Accio meat." She said putting her hand out a thing of meat flew into her hand and she started eating it smiling.
Shanks dropped his mug. "Wow Luffy's family is strange. What else can you do?"
Anne smiled and looked at Shanks "there is a few things I can make people lose their weapons, make a shield." She did not want to say much more since it made her think of the weird dreams she had been getting. She never told Ace about them not wanting him to worry.
Shanks smiled "That seems very useful. So how has your brother been?"
Ace smiled "last we saw him he has been doing well; he keeps talking about becoming the king of the pirates." Ace smiled drinking some Sake, "too bad for him I will be king of the pirates."
Shanks smiled at him and looked to Anne, "So how come you didn't sail on your own."
She smiled now not caring about her being Luffy's crew member, "Well when Luffy sets sail I will be heading back to join him." Shanks raised an eyebrow. "I told Luffy I would be his first mate when he starts his own crew."
Ace was laughing, "That is not what happen. You lost a bet to rock paper scissors. And the deal was he stopped bugging you about joining his crew if your won, if you lost you had to join his crew."
Shanks started laughing, "Sounds like Luffy."
That night they spent partying before the crew was getting ready to leave. Shanks heard how Ace was planning to fight Whitebeard and kill him. He looked to Ace "You need to be careful, that old man is very dangerous."
(Scene Break)
Anne groaned rubbing her head she opened her eyes and looked around. She was in a room by herself. She tried thinking of what happen then it all came flooding back. Ace had found the warlord Jimbei for five days straight. The moment both of them fell she ran over to her brother.
She grabbed her brother shoulder "Ace, are you ok?"
"Yeah, I'm fine Anne, just a little tired."
She smiled and was about to help him up when they saw a ship coming to shore. That was when they saw whitebeard.
"Which one of you brats wants to kill me?"
They watched as he walked forward Ace's other crew members came running over. Only to be blasted back, Anne felt the force hitting her and she slid on the ground. Looking up she went to stand next to Ace. Who now stood up, "Flame Fence!" A wall of fire now blocked Ace, Anne and the Whitebeard Pirates from his crew.
"Captain! Captain what are you doing."
"All of you run." He looked to Anne. "Get out of here."
"Not happening, Ace, you're not getting rid of me." She gave him a hard stare.
Anne glared at Whitebeard, and ran forward freezing the man in an Ice Cube, only for the Ice to Shatter and fall to the ground.
Whitebeard looked at Anne with his fist glowing sent a punch at her.
Ace watched Anne's body crack and fall to the ground in pieces. He ran forward fighting with all his might.
Anne groaned sitting back up. And watched her brother fighting she was about to join the fight. When Ace yelled at her to stay out of it.
She watched her brother get hit and knocked to the ground. She got up her fist had a slight red glow.
"Expelliarmus." A red light shot out of her hand and Whitebeard watched as his weapon flew out of his hand and Anne caught it.
Ace took the moment to launch an attack and Whitebeard just backhanded him to the ground.
The fight lasted all night. Anne stood next to Ace. She saw Whitebeard sending a punch at Ace and pushed him out of the way taking the hit. She slid on the ground a good distance away from the fight. She tried getting up, and watched her brother get knocked to the ground. Anne saw that Ace slowly sat up and started to sit up, while Whitebeard talked to him. She saw him handing his hand to him. Ace screamed at him before passing out. Anne pushed her self up and ran over to her brother. Anne put herself in-between Ace and Whitebeard.
Whitebeard started laughing and looked at her, "so some fight left in you girl."
"You got that right, I will protect my brother with my LIFE!" she yelled at Whitebeard with a glare.
Whitebeard smiled down at the twins he smiled and smirked. "You girl are full of surprises. Why don't you join me?"
"Not happening." She said and sent a punch at him as a phoenix of ice flew at him.
He went to fight Anne for another two hours before she fell.
(Scene Break)
Anne lowered her head before she got up and went outside, she saw the big blue ocean. She saw Ace sitting on the deck with a guy talking to him. She walked over to Ace.
Sitting next to him, "Are you ok?"
Ace nodded his head and when the man left Ace looked at Anne, "I will kill him."
Anne nodded knowing this was something she could not stop her brother from doing. She got up and left her brother alone knowing he didn't want to talk to anyone.
Anne went to the other side of the deck her head lowered. She saw a man walking over to her, "Hey you're Anne right." He was lean and muscular, blond-haired man. He had stubble on his chin. She noticed he wears a purple jacket and a light blue sash and a gold belt around his waist. He also had on dark pants that were knee- length, and black sandals. On his chest was the Whitebeard's Jolly Roger tattooed on it. She knew he was seen his bounties Marco the 1She glared at him and looked back at the sea.
"I'm Marco, was wondering how you are feeling."
"How do you think?"
"Better than being dead."
"Why did you let us live?"
"Pops wants Ace and you to join his crew."
"I will not join." She said looking off at the sea.
Marco laughed, "Why is that?"
"I plan to join a different crew in a couple years."
"So you were going to leave your brother's crew."
"I was never part of his crew," she said looking him in the eyes. "I sailed with my brother."
Marco sat on the railing, "well I have never heard of that. So you know your brother's crew came back to get him and you. Though they lost. There all in the sick bay healing at the moment."
Anne lowered her head. "Just leave me be."
(Scene Break)
That night Anne watched her brother sneaking into Whitebeard's room. Only for a moment later to be thrown into the hallway. She looked at her brother holding his bleeding nose. "Do you want help?" She asked smirking at her brother.
"LEAVE ME ALONE ANNE! JUST GO AWAY!" He yelled at her while glaring.
Anne was taken back, her brother had never yelled at her like that before. She had gotten in arguments when they were younger. But they never yelled like that. She stood up and saw some of the men were looking at her worried. She closed her eyes too keep her self from crying. She had been extremely upset since waking up knowing how weak she was. She had not been able to protect her brother. Anne stood up her eyes were covered by her hair. "Fine Ace I will leave." She said walking away. Anne walked to the front of the ship and saw that they were close to an island. She climbed on the edge and jumped off.
Marco watched and thought she was killing herself until he saw her running on ice to the next island. Marco looked to Thatch. "Go tell pops where I am going. And talk to Ace for me." Marco turned into a phoenix and flew after Anne who was now a good distance away.
