Months passed as Velica slowly fell back in tune with how things worked around Dressrosa. Her captain had been extremely calm – aside from a few incidents – since she had returned and all seemed to be back to normal. Baby 5 seemed less on edge and the guys that she was dating seemed to be left alone by Doflamingo – for now. His attention was currently turned to the woman, Velica, who sat at the edge of the pool as she glared at the water with a rather unforgiving expression.
"Why the look of displeasure, Velica?" Doflamingo inquired, wondering just why she was looking at the water that way. Velica didn't even bother to pull her eyes away as she felt her anger pile up even more than before – she hated this fucking pool. She hated all the damned bimbos that swam in it because they didn't have a Devil Fruit. Why the hell did they even have a damned pool in the first place if nobody higher-up could fucking swim in it.
"This is fucking stupid." Velica said, kicking a pool noodle into the water and having it splash some of the woman. They yelled out in a frantic tone as the noddle had hit the water harder than expected, getting the woman that were trying to relax wet. Some of them glared at Velica while others tried their best to ignore the woman – those being the senior women who had been there for a very long time. The newer ones didn't know what they were in for as they gave her that type of look.
Her brow twitched as she raised her fingers and gave them a snap. Suddenly all those girls who had given her a displeasing look and were resting on an inflatable had them burst after the snap of her finger causing them to plunge into the pool water and become drenched. The women who had no idea what was going on screamed out in panic, wondering how she managed to do that with just the snap of her fingers.
From behind her Doflamingo laughed and the ladies that rested with him on the couch too either smile or give small giggles of their own. These were the woman that knew Velica rather well – seeing as how these were some of the women who had dressed her up once as a punishment ordered by Doflamingo. Regardless on weather they knew her or not – nobody was safe from her wrath. Her eye twitched again as she once again used her Devil Fruit powers to stop time as she ran up and kicked Doflamingo right in the face sending him flying back and landing on his back with his legs up in the air.
"I don't know how many times I have to tell you to not fucking laugh at me!?" From afar sat some of Doflamingo's strongest men – his Elite. They were trying to play a card game but were bothered from it when Velica had dealt a damaging blow to Doflamingo which caused his body to fly back and damage several pillars and break a fucking wall, exposing part of the castle.
"And I thought Baby 5 was mean to the Young Master..." Trebol muttered to himself as he watched the whole thing happen. The rest of the men just shook their head and turned back to the game, knowing better than to get between their Young Master and his Little Treasure.
Velica gave a frustrated sigh as she scoffed and muttered a "whatever" under her breath as she managed to disappear all thanks to her Devil Fruit powers. Doflamingo managed to sit himself back up and rubbed the back of his neck wondering what the hell had gotten into her this morning. Velica had managed to place herself right on the outskirts of Dressrosa villa. She put her hands in her pockets and made her way through the street with an extremely grumpy expression placed upon her features.
Many of the towns people were happy to see her, but avoided her at all costs by the way she looked. Making her way through the town she came to a news stand and just happened to glance at something that caused her eyes to widen. She picked up the paper and read through it thoroughly as the headline read
"Straw Hat Pirate Reunite After Two Year Disband!"
she read the article and noticed that everyone had looked much different from their wanted posters from two years ago – no doubt that their bounties would quickly rise now that they were all back together. Her eyes landed on Monkey D. Luffy – he hadn't changed one bit compared to the rest of them. She thought back to the last time she had seen the boy – fighting to save his brother at Marine Forde.
She placed the paper back down and shook her head – that was around the time when she agreed to join Law for a short amount of time. She closed her eyes as she found her thoughts drifting back to Law as she wondered how he was doing now. She wondered if he was any closer to achieving what it was he was after – after all it had been over a year since they had last parted ways. It had been a year since she had last heard his voice, since she had last seen him, since she had last had to put up with his ass – it was saddening.
She turned from the stand and walked on a bit more – her mind still on Law and his crew. She knew it wasn't wise to think of him, but she couldn't help it. She had so many questions that she wanted answered such as the one that boggled her mind the most – why did he seem so saddened when she left him?
