"In the end it all comes down to explaining the situation and hoping the explanation is enough,"- Kiyo to Kaileara.
Chapter four:
I sat once more in Rookfang's office with Yukina laying on the floor chewing on a bone that the elves gave her. Kiyo is currently decimating the bugs in the Greenhouse because she likes the taste of them for some weird reason she wouldn't tell me about. I smiled at Rookfang and ask, "So what all did you find?"
"Currently you are missing 40,000,000 Galleons from the Potter account," I felt my eyes widen at the amount, "A few heirlooms and a group of books was taken, but we magically returned them to the vault. The key's that were linked to all the vaults except the one your aunt has for the Evans vault have self destructed,"
"I see..." I lean back into my chair as I link my fingers, "Who exactly stole my money?"
"The Weasley's and Dumbledore," Rookfang replied causing me to sigh.
"Let the Weasley's be," I decide causing Rookfang to look at me in surprise, "They do not have a lot of money, so allow them what was taken, but nothing else,"
"And Dumbledore?" Rookfang inquired as he wrote down something.
"I want the money he stole back in my accounts," I reply while scratching my cheek, "What of the room I requested?"
"It is ready for your use," He replied causing me to hum, "What else do you wish to speak about or do?"
"I wish to let you see some of my weapons," I answer as I leaned forward, "If you don't mind,"
"Of course though I would like a list of who will be in the room with you," He said causing me to smile.
"Here," I pulled out a slip of paper and handed it over to him, "This is what I have so far,"
He took it without a word and read through it before calling out, "Thistleblood! Please take this list to the Goblin we have waiting in Diagon. I want it copied so the Goblin we have waiting here will know who to bring to meeting room 39."
A short goblin wearing reddish gold armour appeared and took the slip of paper before slipping out. I stood up and walked over to the desk while saying, "I believe it would be best to start now."
"Agreed," He said as I pulled out a small group of daggers, "Who made these?" He pulled one from the group and examined it, "It's very well made and well taken care of,"
"That dagger was made on the island of Alabasta," I reply, "I got that one and four others, so I wish to give it to you. I believe the makers name is Norman,"
"Interesting," He pulled up another one, one of my own makes, "Who made this one?"
"I did," The goblin looked at me in surprise, "I've picked up a bit of blacksmithing while traveling the seas of my home," I took the dagger in my hands, "I used some basic steel while also adding a bit of copper to give it the bronze sheen. The handle is made of tiger bone from an 6 year old tiger that I killed on the island of Dawn,"
"Interesting, but what do these carvings mean?" He asked while gesturing to the seals I had carved into the bone.
"They are seals meant to keep the blade from rusting, wearing easily, or being damaged during a fight," I reply causing him to look at me, "I learned about sealing when I was little and as I grew, I've only gotten better,"
"I see," He murmured as I handed it back to him before he picked up another one, "And this one?"
"I believe I received it on Drum island with 3 others," I murmur as I tried to remember, "The maker happened to be an old man by the name of Gin,"
This continued for a while, I then decided to show him my weapons that I wouldn't sell. I took out Onmyo and he gasped, "Where did you get this blade?"
"I made her," I state proudly, "She was the final test my Blacksmithing master gave me," I caress the blade, "I used metal I found in the deepest pit of the ice spirits to make her blade the way it is. The handle is a mixture of silver, a few frost wolf hairs, a bit of gold, and some star dust. It took me three months to forge her,"
"May I?" He asked causing me to nod, "Exquisit. The blade is perfect and seems to radiate a frosted aura. What is her name?"
"Onmyo," I murmur proudly, "She isn't for sale though I wished for you to see her,"
He hummed in approval and I showed him the rest of my weapons. Before we knew it, it was time for him to lead me to the meeting room. I followed him through the dark halls of Gringotts and felt Kiyo appear on my shoulder. She hummed lightly in my ear as we entered the room. I took a seat and put on my illusion so that my friends would recognize me. I took out a few boxes and Kiyo asked, "What are those for?"
"I wish to see which elements they are close to," I reply as I opened one of the boxes to reveal of group of clear stones, "I also wish to let them see some of the items I've gathered during our time with Luffy and Law," I opened another box to reveal a few miscellaneous items that I really had no use for nor cared too much about, "I wanted to give them a few...gifts," I opened another box to reveal a group of items that had Kiyo snickering, "And lastly I wanted to let them see the progression of my Nakama and I as pirates,"
She took one look in the last box and fell off my shoulder laughing. Considering the top wanted poster was taken while Kid had been drunk...yeah let's not go there. I placed the boxes on the table just as I heard the door open. Yukina, who had chosen to lay behind me to act as a pillow, raised her head as Kiyo jumped into my lap. In walked Luna, she looked over at me with a smile and ran over to me. Kiyo jumped off of my lap and onto Yukina's head as the blond missile I nicknamed fea childe slammed into my chest. I felt my eyes widen in surprise as the air was driven out of my body. I coughed as she giggled and hugged me close. I shook my head after a few seconds as she murmured, "Kai Kai!"
I looked down at the blonde and sniffed the air lightly as I felt my chest become wet. Regret filled me as I realized she didn't have anyone to help her through her wanderers dreams. I held her close and used my powers to soothe her soul as I hummed lightly. She sniffled as her body slowly relaxed against mine and I murmured, "I'm sorry Fea Childe. I left you all alone without anyone to help you through those dreams. I'm so sorry."
"It's alright Kai," She murmured after a few minutes causing me to hug her tighter, "You found where you belong and you aren't planning to leave us behind. I'm going with you no matter what,"
"You've seen it all haven't you?" I ask as I pulled away slightly.
She gave a tinkling laugh as she shook her head, "Not all of it...just enough to know your stronger now..."
I gave her a smile as she turned to Yukina and Kiyo. Yukina was glaring at a smiling Kiyo who had taken a seat on her flank. Yukina grumbled, "Did you really have to jump on my head? I'm not a stepping stone you damned fox!"
Kiyo glared at a suddenly smirking Yukina as she was tossed off of the wolves flank. Kiyo cursed and growled, "I am a kitsune you lousy wolf! Show some respect!"
"Respect you?" Yukina inquired as she gave a small grin, "Why would I respect you when I saw you dance the chicken dance with Cheshire?"
I felt my mouth drop open and turn to Kiyo while asking, "When the hell did that happen? I would've paid to see that!"
"I was drunk you damned wolf," Kiyo retorted while blushing deeply and looking away, "It's not my fault,"
I shook my head while Luna snickered. I then gently tapped both on their noses before saying, "Fea Childe this is my kitsune familiar, Kiyo," I gesture to the blushing fox, "And this is my Guardian wolf, Yukina," I gesture to Yukina, "That's enough you two. Fight when we get back to the island."
"Yes Kaileara," both looked away from me.
I rolled my eyes before giving the giggling girl a smile, "So when do you think the others will be arriving?"
"The nargles told me they would be arriving very soon," She replied causing me to sigh, "Are you worried?"
"Slightly," I murmur as I leaned back and Luna moved a little so we weren't so close, "I'm afraid someone might be leaving us,"
"Have faith Kai," Luna spoke seriously causing me to look at her, "Someone might leave though it will only be for a little while. Don't let it hurt too much Kai,"
"Are you certain?" I ask causing her to nod, "Then I'll hold you to it,"
She smiled just as the door opened once more. In walked Draco, he paused before asking, "Kaileara...is that you?"
"Yeah Dragon," I murmur with a small smile, "I've changed a lot since you last saw me,"
"I'll bet," He murmured before taking a seat, "So what's going to happen and what's with the boxes?"
I let a smirk appear on my face as I lean slightly forward, "Let's just say what will be revealed will not all be pleasant, but it will be needed for you to understand," I then wave at the boxes, "Those are items that I will be showing you after I'm done revealing what I've been doing."
"Why do I have a feeling your luck is involved?" Draco groaned as the door opened.
"My luck has everything to do with it dear Dragon," I reply as Hannah and Susan walk in, "Welcome Medic and Warrior,"
"Kaileara?" Hannah murmured causing me to nod.
"Damn you look..." Susan trailed off as she looked me over.
"Hot?" Luna supplied causing me to snicker.
"Yeah," Susan nodded dumbly before shaking her head, "And Feral, Dangerous, and Powerful,"
I gave a loud laugh at that as they took their seats, "You have no idea dear Warrior. My absence from this doomed country has benefitted me more than you know."
"So long as you haven't done anything stupid-" Hannah was cut off by three snorts all emanating from Luna, Yukina, and Kiyo, "You did something stupid...I should have known,"
I gave the three who snorted a withering look before saying, "Not all of it's my fault though," I rub the area over my chest, "I will say that some of it was incredibly stupid."
"Remind me why I put up with you?" Hannah asked with a small groan, "I swear the next thing you're going to say is that you've been to another world fighting against the impossible,"
I froze as Kiyo and Yukina looked at Hannah in shock. Well shit she just unknowingly summed up a lot of what I've been doing. I gave a nervous laugh and said, "Yeah about that..."
Everyone bar Luna looked at me with wide eyes. Before another word could be uttered, the door opened to reveal Neville walking in with a surprised Blaise. I gave the two a wave as they paused for a few seconds. Neville then said, "I have a feeling shit is going to hit the fan when we get everyone here."
"Correct dear Bear," I murmur weakly as Kiyo and Yukina gave me pitying looks.
Everyone stared at me for a few moments as I leaned against Yukina. Blaise then pointed at the Kiyo and Yukina while asking, "What the fuck?"
"Everyone," I say while hoping to get this over with real soon, "These are my bonded kitsune familiar Kiyo," I point to Kiyo who nodded, "And my bonded Guardian wolf, Yukina," I gesture to her causing her to smirk at them, "You'll find out everything when everyone gets here,"
"Good thing we're here," I look up as Tracy said that.
She walked inside with Daphne, Hermione, Fred, and George following her. Hermione was leaning heavily against Fred as George held her hand comfortingly. She looked really sick causing me to sigh and dig through my pocket space for a potion to help her. Once I found it, I got up and walked over to her. She looked at me in surprise and I uncorked the potion while murmuring, "Mist I need you to drink this. It will help."
She took the potion without too much trouble. She slowly began to look better as I went back to my seat and the others went to theirs. The door closed and all around the room seals activated. I heard gasps from my friends, but held in my snicker as I smirked at them. Tracy murmured, "Awesome."
I chuckled and spoke to break them out of their awe, "That it is dear Knight, but that is a mere precaution," I gave them all a serious look, "Everything said inside of this room is not to be shared outside of these walls unless you're on my island."
"You're talking like the stuff you're going to say will change the balance of the world," Blaise laughed only to stop when he found that I wasn't laughing, "It's a joke right?"
"No," I saw them freeze, "What I am about to reveal is something that can and will change the world around us. You are not to speak of it unless I tell you that you can,"
"What could possibly make you sound so serious?" Susan asked as Tracy and Daphne eyed me.
"And make you look so much hotter?" Tracy inquired as she wiped away some drool.
"First, you must promise me on your magic that you will not reveal anything you either see or hear inside this room to anyone outside of this group; unless, I tell you that you can," I say causing them to do so, "Now I will not be speaking, but rather showing you the important points of my journey to become," I wave my hand over my body, "The person you see before you,"
"How will you show us?" Hermione asked causing me to look at her curiously, "There isn't a pensive in the room,"
"Correct," I murmur while feeling immense relief at the fact she was looking way better, "I will be using a power that I've been given access to,"
"Will it hurt?" Susan asked causing me to shake my head.
"It shouldn't," I assure her even though I knew it would most likely lead to me gaining a bloody nose, "Now are you ready?"
Upon hearing their agreement, I quickly summoned a group of multicolored threads made of a mixture of magic, haki, and devil fruit. I attached the threads to their foreheads as they cried out in shock. Hannah shrieked, "What the hell?"
"This is the power I spoke of," I murmur, "Now close your eyes and allow yourself to be pulled in,"
They all did reluctantly and were soon immersed in my memories. I let out a low whine as pain seared up from my chest. I place a hand over it and bit my lips as I kept the threads where they were. Damn I hated using this power sometimes. Kiyo rubbed her cheek against mine as she murmured, "Just hold on Kai. It'll be over soon."
"I know," I murmur as I slowly sit up from my crouched position, "But damn it hurts,"
"At least your not showing them every memory," Yukina supplied as she butted her head against my back, "Makes it easier on you,"
"I know," I take a deep breath as I monitor their progress through my memories, "Hermione and Susan will take the longest along with Hannah. They're actually pausing to examine each memory. Luna will be the fastest because of her prior knowledge,"
"Hermione seems like she would be a good first mate," Yukina murmured, "She just needs to get stronger and gain a deeper knowledge of the sea. Luna seems like she would be a good navigator. When everyone comes here, We can stick her with Nami. Susan has a an aura of either a swordswoman or a sharp shooter,"
"Draco seems like her would be a good helmsman," Kiyo looked at the blonde, "From what I saw during our bonding, he seems to have an excellent sense of direction which coupled with Luna's skill will definitely work in our favour. Neville can go either the way of the doctor or a second Shipwright since I can sense Blaise having a knack for ships. Daphne and Tracy are however a mystery,"
"We will figure it out later, but what makes you think Luffy will agree to letting me become a captain under him?" I ask them causing both to laugh.
"Luffy loves you and I'm sure if you asked he would agree," Yukina said with a smile, "The kid will do anything to make you happy,"
"I guess," I hadn't really thought of actually becoming a captain.
Now that I think about it, People that I've fought against always ended up asking me why I wasn't the captain. I always replied that it was Luffy's job since there is usually only one captain in a crew. Could we be like the Whitebeard pirates and have divisions? It actually seemed like a good idea. I broke out of my thoughts as I felt something pressing against my nose. I looked down to see Kiyo holding a tissue there. I took it from her and held my nose as the tissue became stained crimson. I quickly took out an old rag I had lying in my pocket space that wouldn't have some chemical on it and placed the tissue on the ground. Kiyo opened her mouth and burned it with her fox fire. I gave her a thankful look as I leaned back to watch my friends.
With Luffy
Luffy sat in his favorite perch as the sunny followed the hearts pirates sub. He was practically jumping in excitement at the thought of getting his sister back. He wasn't excited enough to forget his need to eat though. He called out, "Sanji! I'm hungry!"
"We just ate lunch damn it!" Replied the cook causing everyone to laugh.
"But I'm hungry," The Straw hat wearing king whined.
Sanji shook his head in annoyance as Robin leaned against the railing. The crew had gone back to their regular antics though without Kaileara the atmosphere seemed a bit...lost. Her mind wandered back to when she had first spoken to the white haired girl when she had joined the Strawhats...
Flashback
Robin stared in surprise to see the white haired beauty sitting on the railing and watching the sea. She seemed so deep in thought, but it was the sadness that radiated off of her that caught the archaeologist's attention. The sadness that radiated off of her reminded her of when she was younger, but there was a deep difference to it. The sadness seemed to be surrounded by pain and regret that Robin hadn't experienced causing her to wonder what caused it. She was broken out of her thoughts by the girl speaking, "What are you doing up so late Robin? I thought you would be asleep?"
"I just couldn't sleep," Robin replied causing the girl to chuckle.
"Still shocked over Luffy's offer to joining the crew?" The whitette asked causing Robin to nod, "Eh you get used to it. My little brother will never change his ways,"
"What are you still doing up Kaileara?" Robin asked causing the Jack of All trades to shrug.
"I couldn't sleep," She replied, "It seems we're in the same boat even if our reasons for not being able to sleep differ," The girl looked at Robin with a calm smile though the sadness in her eyes stayed, "It reminds me of..."
The white haired girl fell silent, but Robin chose not to press the issue since it seemed to bite deeply in the other girls heart. She decided to ask a question that had been bugging her since she had first seen the white haired girls wanted poster, "Why did you join up with Luffy? You could have started your own crew or stayed with the Surgeon of Death."
The white haired girl tensed visibly at the last part of Robins question. She seemed to be debating with herself making Robin wonder if she had gone too far before the white haired girl spoke up again, "A promise...I joined Luffy because of a promise. I will continue to stay on this crew until that promise is fulfilled."
"What happens afterwards?" Robin couldn't help but ask.
The white haired girl chuckled a bitter chuckle, "I have no clue, but it doesn't matter. I'll stay with the crew if I even make it past the battle that will most likely occur for the One Piece."
The Archaeologist stared at the white haired girl as she shook her head. The aura around her made it seem like she was a tool, but if what Robin had seen in Luffy meant anything she wasn't. What exactly happened to the girl to cause this? The White haired girl then let out a laugh as her kitsune appeared. She gave a giant smile and hugged the multi tailed fox to her chest. The Kitsune looked at her and smiled as the white haired girl headed inside.
End of Flashback
Robin had only gotten her answer when she joined back up with the Strawhats before they had entered fishmen island. She smiled at the memory of the girls return and shook her head lightly. When Kaileara had come back, she seemed lighter and full of life. They ended up having a party and Kaileara talked about some of her adventures during her time away from them. Kaileara had spoken to her while the others had been busy. Kaileara had told her everything she wanted to know and the results had shocked her. The knowledge that the girl had lived through so much and still came out sane had amazed her, but also made her feel protective over the girl. In the long hours they spent together, the girl had become like a little sister to her and she had admitted that Robin was like a sister to her as well. She would help the younger girl even if she denied the need for it. Robin ignored the others as they scooted away from her when she began to smile. Luffy whispered to Chopper and Usopp, "She's kinda scary when she smiles like that..."
"Yeah," the two agreed, "Let's go to the other side of the ship,"
They ran off without another word.
With Kaileara
I let out a sneeze causing blood to bubble in the rag. I blew my nose and grimace as I used my magic to clean up the blood. Damn someone must be talking about me. I shook my head and watched as everyone slowly came out of it. Luna being the first followed by Tracy, Daphne, Fred, George, Neville, Blaise, Hannah, Susan, and Hermione. I quickly retracted the threads and sent them away causing me to groan as the strain on my body disappeared. I felt their eyes on me as Hermione breathed, "Mother Fucker."
I chuckled weakly and took a deep breath, "You see now why I said that this information couldn't leave this room?"
"Yeah," Hannah murmured weakly, "But I need to ask something,"
I look at her with a raised eyebrow, "Yes Hannah?"
"Do you...feel no regret in your actions?" She asked causing me to wince as I shook my head, "Why?"
"Because while I may have done that shit, it was all for a reason," I answer with a deep breath, "I'll admit some of my reasonings for doing some of that shit were wrong...I can't feel regret over it. The life of a pirate is a dangerous one and I accepted that by getting strong," I look at her with pained eyes, "Hannah...please don't leave,"
"Why shouldn't I?" She asked causing me to sigh.
"Because...your Nakama," I murmur causing most to look at me in shock, "I'll admit I did a lot of things that are considered wrong, but I can't lose you,"
"Why not?" She asked, "You have that man, Law and that Reindeer to take care of you...even that girl Andromeda...how do I fit in this?"
"You are a blooming medic," I reply while hoping she'll stay, "They won't always be around and I need someone that knows what they're doing with magical healing. I know it's tough knowing that you're not the only healer, but Hannah," She looked at me, "You're more than that. You can do so much more and you're like a sister to me. You are Nakama,"
She bit her lip before looking at her hands, "Kai..."
"Remember what happened during second year?" I ask causing her to nod, "Do you remember the vows we swore?" I got up and stumbled over to her before taking her hands in mine, "Do you remember that we vowed to always be there for each other? That I would never abandon you?"
"Yes," She answered while I looked into her eyes.
"Hannah I will always do my best to stand by you," I murmur, "I will not needlessly abandon those I see as Nakama," I gave her a smile, "My heart and soul can not allow it for it is against my very nature as a wolf...as a human. I may have left you all here, but at the time I was a weak little girl that was so abused that I couldn't stand it. Now that I'm back...Now that I've met Luffy and the others...I realized that I can't stand alone anymore,"
"Y-you need me?" She asked with hope in her eyes.
"Yes," I murmur as I released her hands, "I need everyone in this room along with the rest of my Nakama. The only reason I am as strong as I am," I gave her a smile as I stood up, "Is because of my Nakama. My will to protect you all and help you grow strong has made me strong," I then walked back over to my seat, "I need all of you. Will you stand with me?"
"Yes," Luna was the first to speak, "I will stand with you Kai,"
"You need someone to keep your head on straight," Hermione gave me a smirk, "I'll have to be the person to do it,"
"You will need someone to help make plans," George said while giving me to grin, "So I'm gonna stay,"
"Like my twin and our little girlfriend," Hermione blushed at Fred's declaration causing everyone to laugh, "I'll stand with you because you'll make it fun,"
"I can't leave you without someone to make sure you're doing the right thing with your money," Draco said with a smile, "I'll have to do that,"
"I'm going to help because you'll need someone to make sure you're all healthy," Neville smiled a great big smile, "I'll be doing that,"
"I'll have to make sure if anything get's broken it'll be fixed if you can't do it," Blaise said with a small smile, "I have to keep my bear under control after all,"
"Hey!" Neville roared in protest.
We let out laughs as Daphne and Tracy shook their heads. Daphne spoke up, "You'll need someone to make sure you have the proper spells to work with."
"And someone to act as a fighter," Tracy said with a small shrug, "I'll do that because you need a protector,"
I rolled my eyes before turning to Susan and Hannah. Susan spoke after a few moments, "You'll need someone to keep a log of everything we do and all the Law's that we need to abide by though," She smirked, "If we're going to be pirates, we don't actually need laws."
"Damn it," Hannah sighed before giving us a grin, "I'm going to need to heal you all if you act like miss idiot over there," She pointed at me causing me to scowl, "I'll have to fix you guys up,"
I shook off my surprise and gave them a smile, "So we're good?"
"Yeah," Hermione said with a small grin.
"You all do realize," I say causing them to look at me, "If we're going to be doing this, you won't be able to turn back. The path of a pirate is one of danger and adventure," I gave them all a serious look, "You'll most likely die if you make stupid mistakes since you haven't been training since you were little. You'll be at a severe disadvantage because of that," I then smirk, "I'll have to train you up and maybe my Nakama will help, but you all have to agree to this. It means theres going to be a shit load of work you need to do, jobs you need to discover, and it will be hard. You'll beg for it to stop, but you can never look back,"
"We know," Fred said for the first time totally serious, "But that's the fun of it,"
"Yeah," George agreed, "Don't think you can dissuade us,"
"You're stuck with us now," Susan grinned causing me to laugh.
"I know," I chuckled, "I just wanted you to know that you're going to be put through hell and back to get strong,"
We all smile and let out laughs. I'm glad my magical Nakama are so accepting of this. I thought we almost lost Hannah, but we didn't and I'm happy. I can't wait until I have all of my Nakama with me again.
End of Chapter. Give me a review if the site will allow it. It's acting like an idiot at the moment so PM me if it won't allow you to review!
