Going Ashore

Sally gazed into the fridge. Nothing. An empty void. She sighed but she saw a chance in it.

"Law, can I go ashore to buy some food?" she asked.

Law was reading in one of his medical books and seemed a bit annoyed when Sally disturbed her. He lifted his head and looked her in the eyes. She didn't know what to think about that gesture.

"Food?" he repeated.

"Yes, and I need clothes too. I can't keep walking around in men shirts." she explained.

"Fine. Bepo, you go with her." he ordered.

"No." the bear stiffened.

Everyone looked surprisingly at Bepo. He started to sweat as Law looked at him.

"And why not?" he asked.

"Because everyone on the street will think that I'm the father of the child. My mother will get a heart attack if she hears about this." he blurted out.

Everyone stared.

"Fine, anyone else want to go?" Law sighed.

"On second thought none of us want to go. Not that we have anything against you Sally. But think about it. If the marines are there, alone one of us is not strong enough to protect her. What if some really powerful guy is there? Bepo is the strongest of us and he doesn't want to go." Penguin explained, the others agreeing silently.

"I'm still capable of defending myself." Sally insisted.

"Being protected by a woman will hurt our Men-Pride." they complained.

"It's alright, then I'll go alone." she insisted.

"No, you can't." Law disagreed.

"Well, then who's gonna come with me?" she asked him.

Later outside the submarine, the crew members wave after the departing pair.

"Come back soon." Shachi grinned.

"Have fun." Bepo called.

"Bye." Sally called back.

Sally waved and then turned forward with Law was walking next to her. He didn't wear his hat and his tattoos are covered with a long-sleeved top, to disguise himself. He grumbled.

"But really, I can still defend myself on my own." she told him.

"That's not the point. What will you do if the baby decides to arrive now. Someone will have to get you back to the ship." he explained.

"Fair enough." she shrugged.

"I really wanna know why they all chickened out." he grumbled.

On the submarine, the crew let out a sigh of relieve.

"We did it." Bepo wiped the sweat from his fur.

"I hope the captain will thank us for this one day." Shachi scratched his head.

"Sally is really the right thing for him." Penguin smiled.

"His laid back attitude is often just for show. I hate to see the captain hide his pain." Bepo made a sad face. The crew members patted his shoulder.

"Having someone close to him again will do him good." Shachi told him.

"Haha, listen to us. We are like women trying to make a couple out of them." Penguin laughed.

"The captain needs it. I hope he realises it." Bepo looked into the distance.

The pair walked in silence the entire way to the small town. They passed through a forest and a farm where the workers greeted them with smiling faces.

"Wait, I need a break." Sally huffed when she spotted a bench.

Sally sat down to catch her breath. She was starting to feel the fatigue more and more as it became increasingly more difficult to move for a long time. Law stood in front of her and looked around for marines. He was cautious, too cautious. Sally giggled.

"Don't worry about the marines. They are either not gonna recognise you or faint if they cause trouble." she told him.

"Faint?" he asked her with surprise.

She grinned at him. Law couldn't help but smile and as Sally tried to stand he offered her his hand. Sally looked to him and smiled sheepishly. Law pulled her up and she took his arm as they walk down the street. People around them looked at them and whispered to each other. A mother with a child who is also pregnant walked into the opposite direction. The child noticed something straight away and pulled on his mother's dress..

"Mom, look that lady is having a baby." he noted.

"Yes. How lovely." the mother smiled at her son and then at Sally.

"They look so young." a woman said.

"Ah, young love." and old man sighed.

Law pressed his lips together into a straight line.

"Wow, now I know what they meant." Sally giggled.

She looked up at Law and saw that he was trying to hide his blushing cheeks. She smiled to herself and held his arm tighter. As they walked down the street she spotted a clothes shop.

"I'm gonna look in there, okay?" she told Law.

"Sure." he nodded and stayed outside.

While Sally browsed through the shop, Law waited outside. What the locals said about them was shooting through his mind like rockets and he shook his head to rid himself from those thoughts. She was just a good friend. He glanced up the road when he breathed sharply in. Marine soldiers.

"Thank you, have a nice day." the sales woman bowed.

"Thank you. Bye." Sally waved and left the shop with a new dress.

Sally stepped outside and was suddenly grabbed and pressed her against a wall of an ally.

"Law, what are…" she was about to protest when he quickly covered her mouth.

Law placed a finger over his mouth and looked towards the road. Sally rolled her eyes in annoyance. She freed herself, took his hand off her mouth and pulled him after her.

"Good morning, officers." she smiled at the soldiers, innocently.

"Good morning, ma'am." they greeted her, not paying attention. They walk past each other as if there was no suspicion. Law was stunned. Sally turned to face him after they turned onto another street.

"See? I told you they wouldn't recognise us." she grinned.

"For now." he grumbled.

They walked down the street and Sally spotted another shop. Law waited outside again, but still on edge. A couple of marine soldiers hid in the shadow of a building.

"No doubt about it. That was Trafalgar Law." one soldier mumbled.

"I wonder who that woman is?" another asked.

"That doesn't matter. Right now we have to take him by surprise. He is very dangerous." the other ordered.

When Sally came out of the shop she was armed with more shopping bags.

"What have you brought this time?" Law asked as he stood.

"Some groceries." she peeked into the bag.

In an instant they are surrounded by marine soldiers. They stood in a perfect circle around then, all guns pointed at them. A man, who appeared to be the sergeant, stepped forward.

"Surgeon of Death Trafalgar Law, you are under arrest." the sergeant spoke loudly.
