Law was a huge bore. Baby 5 could not understand for the life of her (which was admittedly still short) why on earth the Young Master had taken him in. The angsty pre-teen spent all of his time in his room, never venturing out into the base they lived in, much the less the town surrounding it.

"LAW!" Baby called, banging on the metal door. The door swung open and Law emerged, brow furrowed.

"What?" he groaned.

"We're going out today!" Baby 5 declared, trying to put on a cheerful demeanor.

"No," he slammed the door in her face.

Baby 5 bit her lip. He didn't want her around. She… She was a burden.

Law lept out of bed as soon as the crying began.

"SHUT UP!" he yelled, swinging the door open and clobbering the sobbing Baby with a pillow. She quieted down instantly, looking at him with teary eyes.

"What is wrong with you?" Law muttered, "Freak."

"You're a freak too," Baby sniffed, poking at the white spots on his skin. Law recoiled.

"Buffalo will take you, go ask him instead," he mumbled, closing the door on her. He padded back to bed and lied down, only to realise that Baby still had his pillow. Sighing, he opened the door again and jogged towards Baby.

Baby was trudging down the hall when Law put his hand on her shoulder.

"Give it back," he demanded, gesturing to the pillow she was clutching.

"Here," she uttered, shoving it into his arms. Law took the pillow and turned around.

"Please come out," said Baby. "You can't stay in there forever."

Law didn't say a word. He kept walking all the way down the hall to his room, entering, and closing the door shut. Baby huffed, and went on looking for Buffalo.

She found him in the kitchen, eating sweets.

"Doffy said you're not allowed to eat those," she grinned, rocking back and forth on her heels. Buffalo froze, turning around to see Baby looking at him smugly.

"He didn't," Buffalo paled.

"He did!" Baby giggled. "You were too busy eating pie to notice!"

Buffalo thought back to Wednesday night, when they had been served cherry pie for the first time in months. It was a very likely possibility that in his excitement, he had completely ignored the Young Master's orders. Since that night, he'd eaten about 5 packs of these candies, and if the punishment was the same as last time…

"784 training fights with Diamante?!" he cried, remembering the horrible beating he had taken. He could not endure that again.

"They're a very special brand," Baby remarked, picking at her fingernails. "If only there were someone who could find-"

"Help me buy some more, Baby?" Buffalo asked. Baby perked up predictably.

"Of course!" she chirped, ecstatic that she could lend him a hand. "These in particular are sold in a specialty shop in the middle of Pen Square. Wanna head there now?"

"Yeah, let's get going," Buffalo grinned. "By the way, is the new guy still shut in his room?"

Baby pouted. Why did anyone even give a damn about that stupid kid anyways? He was boring, a total downer, and suicidal at that...

"Yeah, he's kind of a loser," she rolled her eyes.

"Doffy said he has 'potential'," Buffalo murmured.

This wasn't particularly pleasing or displeasing to either of them. They knew Doffy had no favorites. It was simply a matter of power and strength when it came to choosing his Elite Officers. He loved all his Family the same, and would do anything for them. However, both Buffalo and Baby were a bit irked by the fact that Law had done so little to earn Doffy's praise. Just the look in Law's eyes had earned him a compliment; whilst it had taken 3 S-Rank missions before Doffy finally told Buffalo that he'd done 'a good job'. So to both of them, it was frustrating.

"I want to see this 'potential' of his," Baby crossed her arms.

"Well, Doffy does want us to acclimate him to the Family," Buffalo mused. "Should we invite him along with us?"

Baby made a noise somewhere between a groan and a whine.

"I already asked," she muttered, "he's too busy being depressing and boring."

Buffalo shrugged.

"Doesn't matter," he said, "he can do whatever he wants."

Law walked into the kitchen, rubbing his eyes. Unbeknownst to his two peers, the boy had been eavesdropping from the doorway. Unable to take the abuse, he had decided to prove a point.

"I want to go out," he said, averting his eyes from Baby's.

"Oh, now the shut-in wants to go out?" she said tauntingly.

"Will you take me through the town?" asked Law.

"O-Of course!" Baby stuttered. He wanted her to help him! She wasn't a burden to him after all!

"Anything in particular you want to get?" Buffalo asked the younger boy. The sudden behaviour was bizarre, but Buffalo could work with it. Maybe some of this 'potential' of Law's could rub off on him?

"No," said Law, "not really. Maybe some tools, but that's it."

"Tools?" Baby asked.

"For organ dissection," Law grinned creepily. A shiver went down Baby's back, and she sidestepped towards Buffalo. Maybe the idiot wasn't as boring as she thought. And maybe that wasn't a good thing…

A.N.: I am so so so horribly late. Almost 20 days late; I am so sorry. I've been so ridiculously busy and before I knew it I was missing posting date after posting date. I'll be uploading the other one-shots in (hopefully) succession, so at least they're posted in November. ObscureWriter wanted a one-shot featuring a typical day between Buffalo, Law, and Baby 5. I hope this fits your request! Reviews, Favourites, Subscriptions, and Reader Birthdays are welcomed and much appreciated!
