"Sabo-Kun! You should get some rest, you have been up for two days."Koala snached the book I was reading from my hands.

"Koala! Give that back! I need to finish it!" I tried snatching the book back but she moved her hand away from my reach.

"No! Not until you get some rest!"

"But I am nearly at the end!"

"Right. You're on chapter 10 and there is what 10 more chapter to go?"

"Ok. Fine I am not near the end but at least let me read one more chapter!"

"Get. some. rest!" she pointed towards my room, I let out a sigh.

"Can I at least have my book back?"

"Sabo-Kun!" She began to raise her voice and I knew I would get into trouble, I got up from my set

"Ok you can keep the book but give it back when I am done having a rest!"

"Sabo-Kun! Room! Now!" I pulled my hands out in surrender before running into my room and slamming the door shut.

Hanging up my coute and hat, I sat down by my desk and looked out the window as the wind blow passed, my hand went out to reach for my other book that I only read when I am bored but my hand stop half way, my eyes began to feel heavy, my arm began to ache and I began to feel sleepy, I got up from my chair and jumped onto my bed.

"I guess having a small rest won't hurt." I gave out a small yawn

Pulling the covers over me, I slowly closed my eyes.

I heard voices in the room, slowly my eyes opened to see two boys in the room with me.

One of the boys was right by my side, he was alot younger then the other boy who is walking back and forward in the room but similar, they both have black hair and eyes but the boy by my side had a scar under his left eye, he had on short blue trousers with cuffs, sandals and a sleeveless red vest, on his head was a straw hat.

"Ah! Sabo! You're awake!" the younger boy cried The older boy heard and ran towards us.

He looked like the younger boy but more serious looking and taller but he had rather childish freckles. The boy had an open-front shirt, black boots, black knee-length shorts with an eyelet-studded orange belt, a blue pouch belted around his left leg. On his left arm was a tattoo that caught my eye the tattoo was "ASCE". He also has a hat on his head, his hat was orange with two blue smileys, one frowning and one smiling.

"Sabo How are You feeling?" the younger boy asked

"Fine thanks." then the older boy pushed him away

"How can you be so stupid?"

"What do you mean Ace?"

Ace? So this guy is called Ace, wait how come I am not in control when I am speaking? and Why am I not in control of moving?

"You ran after that sick old bastard! The one we call father and you got caught in an explosion!"

Our? Father? I had two brothers and a father. I had a family. so I wasn't adopted.

"Ace! Watch your language!"

"Or what? It's not like you can do anything with one eye!"

Wait I lost an eye?

"I have two eyes thank you very much, it's just that my left eye is still healing!"

Oh...so thats how I got my scar.

"Ace...let Sabo rest..." the younger boy tried to calm Ace down

"No Luffy you're not in this fight."

So Luffy is the younger boy.

"Oh when did this become a fight? It's not like I physically punched you in the face, oh wait then again you're too stupid to understand."

"Stupid! You're the one who ran after that old bastard! Who left us for dead!"

"He is our father Ace!"

"No he is not! Do you even know why he ran off?"

I didn't reply

"He wants to survive this War! alone! Sabo! Alone! He doesn't want us! He thinks we are a worthless! He hates us! He even said that I am up to no good! Luffy is too stupid to understand what is going on and you are too weak to even live through this war! "

"He said that..." I lowered my head

Is that what my father thinked about me? But I'm not weak! I'm not! If I was then I would of have died in the explosion! But I am alive! I am not weak! I have won over 10 fights with men bigger then me and I still won! I AM NOT WEAK!

"Ace..."

"Am I that weak?" I looked up at Ace

"No...not to me anyway but...hey Sabo I'm sorry that I told you...I was told not to tell you the reason why he left us." his voice softens

"It's fine...It was my fault for running after him."

I lifted my arm up and wipped my right eye so that they don't see how much those words hurt, my arm fell back to my side.

"S-Sabo are you...crying?" Luffy asked

"No! I'm fine! don't worry!" I looked at him and faked a smile

"Sabo...I have seen that smile so may times now and I know its a lie." I looked over at Ace

"No! I am Fine Ace! Don't worry about me! I can take care of myself! I am not letting myself look weak in front of Luffy!"

Just then we heard people running and yelling over one and each other, Luffy ran to the window and looked out.

"We have to go. NOW!"

we ran out of the room, out of the house, we ran into the crowd, I held onto Luffys hand making sure he wont get lost in the crowd, we followed the people down to the underground where everything was dirty and gloomy, I held Luffys hand tighter then before, everyone stood in a group with their family, me and Luffy stood close to Ace.

"Are we going to be alright?" Luffy looked up at me and Ace, we both looked at each other then at Luffy

"We will be fine Luffy!" I squeezed his hand telling him everything will be fine

"I wont let anything happen to us!" Ace placed his hand on Luffy's head and ruffled his hair

"Sabo. SABO-KUN!"

I shot up from my bed to find Koala standing there with her arms crossed.
