Chapter Fifty Seven

Law looked over the letter I had written before looking at me, "Kaileara-ya are you sure you want to face him so soon? We could wait until after the baby is born."

"Law I'm sure," I smiled at the concern he was showing, "It needs to be dealt with and the sooner it's done, the better off we all will be," I reach across the table and took one of his hands in mine, "Voldemort needs to be dealt with and his horcruxes are gone save for the snake. It will only take a single senbon needle full of poison to kill it while Voldemort will be easy to deal with,"

He sighed and looked over the letter again, "Alright. It looks good and I can tell the bastard will most likely choose to agree."

I smiled and took the letter from him before summoning a nondescript owl. The owl hooted at me as it appeared, "Yes?"

"Can you please deliver this letter to Tom Riddle?" I ask causing the owl summon to eye it warily, "Please,"

"I can do this, but are you sure?" The summon asked, "You are playing with fire,"

"Fire is fire and ice is ice," I echo the words that I had heard a long time ago, "I need to end this as soon as possible. The threat needs to end before it can become a problem later on,"

The owl nodded and allowed me to secure the letter to it. It took off moments later and I sighed deeply. I really hoped the bastard agreed or things would get a lot more complicated then they needed to be.

Somewhere in England

Tap.

Tap Tap.

Tap!

"Wormtail!" Voldemort roared at his least favorite servant, "Let that damn owl in,"

"Yes master!" The rat-like man squeaked.

Voldemort blamed the Potter brat for his situation. Only Wormtail and a score of twenty others followed him. How word of his blood status was leaked, he would never know, but he knew it had something to do with that damned bitch. He had to admit she was rather skilled if her defeat of Dumbledore was any clue to the strength that lied within. If only she wasn't his enemy, he could have taken on the world and won if she was by his side. Yes that was a nice thought and a rather large shame that such beauty and power was wasted because of that damned prophecy. He let out a hiss like sigh as his rat-like servant appeared and handed him a letter. The letter had an odd symbol holding it closed. It was a grinning skull unlike any he had seen before and caused deep hate to resonate within him though he didn't know why. He shook his wondering off as he opened the letter and read what was inside:

Dear Riddle,

We both know that this fight cannot go on much longer, so I have a suggestion. We meet at the place where the Quidditch world cup took place last year and fight until one of us stands the victor. If I win, you'll be dead. If you win, you will have no one to go against should you try to rule the war. You will also get the key to what makes me powerful if you best me in combat.

Owl me with your decision,
Kaileara Lunar. D Trafalgar-Ashferd-Evans-Potter.

He set the letter down as he considered it before smirking. He turned to his follower and hissed, "Wormtail get me a quill, ink, and owl. I have a letter to send," The rat-like man scurried off as fast as possible as he began to chuckle, "Oh Potter it looks like I'll finally have the key to my victory and your defeat," He frowned as he looked at the names listed, "Trafalgar? Why does that name ring a bell?"

Kaileara

My body was shuddered as I tried to catch my breath. The lingering pleasure of our recent bout of love making ran through me as I laid across Law's chest. I laid my head on his chest as I listened to his heart beat. It was still beating faster than normal and I knew it would be a while before it stopped. Law chuckled as I took another deep breath, "Even while pregnant, you never tired easily when it comes to these things."

I moved and hissed lightly as I was reminded that we were still connected. I propped my head up on his chest and offered him a smile, "Another kind of stamina is required for this."

He let out a chuckle causing a small moan to leave me as the vibrations ran through my body, "Oh and how do you get more of this stamina?"

"Oh there are a few ways," I moved forward to kiss him only to stop as I sensed Mipsy's arrival in the room.

I grumbled under my breath and moved off of Law causing both of us to hiss in pleasure. I looked at my head house elf with a small glare only to blink in confusion at the letter in her hand. She handed it to me wordlessly before leaving the room with a small pop as the blankets around me pooled at my waist. Law sat up and pressed a kiss to the back of my neck, "What is it?"

"A letter," I answered as I scanned it with my magic before opening it, "Let's see what it says,"

Potter,

The terms are agreeable. We will meet next Sunday at 5 P.M.

Until then,
Voldemort.

"He's agreed," Law's grip on me tightened as the words left him.

"I have a week to prepare," I acknowledge as I looked at the letter and a shudder went through me.

"What's wrong?" He asked me.

I frowned and set the letter off to the side before turning to him. I took in the sight of him. His onyx hair was mused from the numerous times I tugged or messed with it. His grey eyes were hooded, yet held concern causing them to be an interesting mixture of steel grey and storm cloud grey. His skin was flushed slightly and covered in a light sheen of sweat. All and all he looked hot and he was mine. With that in mind, I shook my head and pressed a kiss to his lips. He pulled away after a few moments and looked at me with a raised eyebrow. I sighed and laid my head on his chest, "I know that I'm ready to defeat him, but there is still a chance he can win."

"You're having regrets about challenging him," Law summarized causing me to sigh.

"No," I cuddled closer to him, "I do not regret challenging him. I only worry about the outcomes,"

"It's only natural," He rationalized as he held me close, "Everyone who has ever had a great rival or enemy has gone down the same path as you. Each has felt as you are feeling. Even I felt like that when I realized my plans for Doflamingo were finally coming to a head,"

"Really?" I asked him gaining a chuckle and a nod.

"Yes," I lifted my head up to look at him, "It's why I insisted on traveling with the Strawhats and you. I wanted to spend as much time with you as possible just in case it was the last time I would be able to. It's why I spent so much time with Bepo during our travels before you left to rejoin the Strawhats,"

I hummed and pressed my lips to his again. He smirked against mine as I murmured, "Thank you."

"Let's continue where we left off," He suggested with a perverted smirk, "To show me how thank full you are,"

I merely snort at that before pressing closer to him.

A few days later

"So you're planning on going against that maniac we've been hearing about?" Minx asked as we sat together on the cliff by the sakura trees.

"Yup," I leaned back and stared up at the clouds, "It's now or never,"

"Why not wait until you have the baby?" She asked while laying back as well, "Wouldn't it make more sense,"

"Perhaps, but if I wait, I run the risk of him growing stronger," I tried to rationalize, "The dark magic he's found is largely unresearched due to what it does to the soul. The magic could make him truly immortal for all I know if he uses it more,"

"So you're just trying to cut the head off the snake before it can strike and bite you in the ass," She purposed with a hum.

"Pretty much," I agreed before muttering, "You've been spending a lot of time with Tsuki,"

"How'd you know?" She asked with a slight smile as I turned to her.

"You just said something she would say," I replied dryly.

"Oh," She was silent for a moment, "So what are you doing to prepare for the battle?"

I hummed and shrugged, "Training, making explosives that will go off if I throw them at the ground hard enough, making throwing knives and senbon filled with basilisk poison to kill the snake he has, and the like."

"Doing what it takes to be prepared," She murmured softly, "Damn it's odd to see you do things like that ya know,"

"Oh?" I looked at her with a raised eyebrow.

"Training sure, making explosives hell yes," I smirked at that, "But preparing things in advance just for the sake of killing one man regardless of who he is...It doesn't seem like you,"

"People must adapt to a situation or die," I mutter as I sat up, "Sink to the bottom or swim to the top," I placed a hand on my stomach, "The life inside of me depends on me wining this fight and ending this. If I do not do this now, my child will be born yes, but if I failed to win, my child would grow up without me and living in fear of the monster that I'm going to fight," I turned to Minx, "I can't risk it Minx. I can't risk allowing that bastardized mockery of a monster in human form to live long enough for that to happen. I don't want my child to grow up in fear," I closed my eyes and bit my lip, "I'm scared Minx, but I need to do this no matter what..."

She was silent for a while. I feared that I had upset her only to feel a pair of arms settle around my shoulders and her scent to float around me. She pulled me to her and laid her head on my shoulder, "I understand Kaileara. Trust me when I say that. Do what you need to do and I know that everyone will support you in their own way."

I smiled softly and leaned into her as the sun began to set.

A day later

I laid my head on Luffy's shoulder as we sat together on the figure head of the Sunny. The world around us was changing into the milky twilight between day and night bathing the world in both light and darkness. Neither of us spoke, but there was no need to. We both needed this both because of my fight in three days and because we hadn't sat like this since before the battle at Raftel. My mind went back to the battle and I smiled slightly at the memory. I spoke as we watched the sky gain it's first star, "Hey Pup...Do you know what day it will be tomorrow?"

"Huh?" He looked at me as I moved away slightly.

"It will be a year ago that you became pirate king," I remind him causing him to grin.

"YEAH!" He lost his grin, "It'll also be the day that we got seperate again,"

"Hey we found each other again!" He grinned at that, "We need to have a party tomorrow because of that,"

"You can't drink," He reminded me causing me to chuckle.

"Pup Master Valkyrie gave me more of that potion and taught me about making it," We grinned at each other, "So party?"

"Hell yeah!" He grinned and we settled into our silence once more until he asked, "Kai?"

His voice was oddly subdued making me frown, "Yes Pup?"

"You'll make it out of that fight right?" He asked causing me to look at him.

"I'll do my best Pup," I said and received a frown, "Pup-"

"You'll make it out of that fight," His brown eyes narrowed.

"Pup there are many ways that I cou-" I tried to reason with him.

"I don't care!" This was the first time I had seen him act like this, "You'll make it out of that damn fight regardless of what happens. You'll make it out of that fight, have the kid, drink with all of us, party, and live!"

"Pup I'll try, but sometimes the fates will be crul-" He shook his head and dragged his strawhat over his eyes.

"You'll win because you're my sister and Nakama," He growled as he clutched the strawhat to his head, "I will not lose another crew member. We already lost Merry. I'm not losing you again," He looked at me as he pulled the hat up, "You're a member of my crew right?"

"Yeah but-" I tried but was cut off.

"So you have to listen to me," He announced, "As captain of the Strawhats and king of the pirates, I order you to make it out of that fight!"

I looked at my youngest brother and whisper, "Pup."

Tears gathered in my eyes as he said, "I won't lose you so you have to make it outta that fight or else I'll go to the afterlife and get you back. I won't lose you again Kai..."

"Oh Pup," I wrapped my arms around him and pressed my face into his hair, "My little brother. My little monkey of a brother. You've grown so much over the last few years," I smiled as tears flowed from my eyes, "I'll try my best Pup. I promise that I'll try my best,"

He hugged me in return and we fell silent again. I resolved to make it through this. I wouldn't lose everything just because of some idiot that wanted to play king. If anyone deserved to be king of the damn world, it was Luffy not that rabid piece of shit beast that needed to be put down.

End of chapter!
