Author's Note: Thanks for all the wonderful reviews! Now, here is where the plot thickens and it takes a major twist! Please don't forget to review and enjoy! (:

Velica sat in the storage room with her eyes closed. Using her Devil Fruit powers so much like that usually took its tole on her pretty quickly. Though she could slow down time, and even reverse it, there was a limit to what she could do depending on her physical strength. Her eyes fluttered open upon feeling someone approaching the room from the hallway, she was right when hearing the door to the storage room open and shut again before listening as foot steps approached her. Straightening up her posterior she propped herself into more of a sitting position on the crates rather than a leaning one.

"I figured you'd be down here." Velica blinked, not expecting to find him coming down here and looking for her.

"Strange, I would have thought that our Captain would have sent Bellamy instead of you, Law." Velica said right as Law came into view. He gave her a lazy smile before leaning up against one of the boxes, his hat hiding his eyes so it was harder to read what he was thinking.

"Doflamingo didn't send me, Velica. Bellamy is looking for you, Captain's orders, but I knew where you would be hiding so I beat him to you." Velica raised a brow, why would Law be looking for her? Sure, they were crew members and she was one of the only ones that he talked to, but he had never actually went searching for her to have their little talks, so what was Law up to at the moment?

"So, why are you here then?" she asked, watching as Law shifted on the crates slightly as if trying to become a bit more comfortable.

"I'll cut right to the chase. I'm leaving the ship soon, and I want you to come with me." For the first time in her life, Velica showed a hint of expression that was of shock, but it disappeared and left a deep piercing gaze in its wait.

"You're asking me to betray our Captain with you?" she spat coldly, pushing herself off the boxes and walking toward him. Law made no motion of moving nor did he show any fear toward her, he merely continued to stand there and watch her.

"You should already know my answer, Trafalgar. It was stupid of you to even ask." she said, narrowing her eyes toward him before walking past him.

"Doflamingo is only using you for your powers. He doesn't care for you in the slightest, you're just a tool to him." Law told her, causing her to stop walking and stand with her back to him.

"That does not matter, he is my Captain and I am loyal to him till the very end. If he should chose to use my powers only as a ways to gain the One Piece then so be it." Law's eyes narrowed, knowing that Doflamingo had her wrapped around his finger more than he had expected. Doflamingo was an excellent manipulator, but he would have thought that even Velica was above such a foolish trickery. Pushing his back off the crates he turned toward her, her back still facing him as she stood there waiting for his reply.

"Then can I expect that you will not come peacefully with me?" Velica half turned toward Law with a gaze that could kill any normal man right where they stood. Her hands tightened as she snorted and gritted her teeth at the older male that stood before her.

"I will not be going at all." Law sighed before chuckling darkly, his eyes coming into view now and what they held was something that Velica had never seen in them before, but before she could figure out what it was she had something thrown over her head from behind that had covered her whole body. She screamed and started kicking, knowing that she had been thrown inside a large sack and was now being lifted like a bag of potatoes. Velica cursed to herself, Law had caused her to lower her guard and now she was captured by someone who she hadn't even registered had entered the room.

Normally, if she were at full strength, she would use her powers to escape from the stupid bag but due to the battle that she was just in about half an hour ago, she was all out of energy and using her Devil Fruit was more or less out of the question now. Screaming and kicking, she tried to draw some type of attention in hopes that one of the other crew members would hear her and either come running or go and alert their captain, which she hoped was that one, that she had been kidnapped by someone unseen.

It wasn't long before something heavy had hit her on the back of the head from the other side of the sack and everything became silent.
