My friend and I wanted to share with all of you one of our daily conversations. This is for everyone to get an understanding that, yes, the way we have our characters act in the story we do actually act like that in real life. This is a text we did back and forth.

Nunya Bizniz
Chapter Thirty-two: Fateful Meetings
Rachel had the guys lower the anchor of the Nunya. Considering that Law's submarine had no power and it looked like they weren't going to have power for a while she figured they were going to be staying there a long time. Being busy with the sub, Missy hadn't noticed that Rachel had a new passenger yet.
Missy took a look at the control panel for the submarine's solar energy system. Her brows were furrowed in fury. "What the hell is this?" she demanded. "Of course you're power supply won't work. Either someone is sabotaging this ship or some moron is playing with something they don't understand." Missy was quick to find the wire that had been switched around a few days earlier. "Now what moron set this up? If you had just started charging the system while it was like this the whole thing would have blown. Obviously it was a recent change. What the hell is going on here?"
Back on the Nunya, Rachel was sitting on the railing. She was watching the submarine with interest. Though it wasn't coherent from her position, she could hear Missy yelling from the inside. "Wonder how long it will take her to come back out here and start ranting and raving to me," Rachel wondered to herself. She watched for a few more moments before Missy came storming out of the sub.
"Do you have any idea what these morons did?" As Missy got closer to Rachel another of the Heart Pirates chased after her. Rachel believed that this one's name was Penguine. She wasn't too sure since it looked like his hat had gone through a shredder.
"It's not what you think," he was saying. "We did it so that you would fix it."
By now a crowd had gathered to see what all the commotion was about. Zoro stopped his training and came to stand next to Rachel. Ace and Sabo weren't far behind. Law and several others of his crew came out on deck. Missy stopped in her forward direction. She slowly turned to face Penguine, a sickeningly sweet smile on her face. "He's totally dead," Rachel pointed out.
"Rachel?" Missy kept her attention on Penguine as she called out. Rachel stiffened and stood a little taller. She was hoping Missy wasn't going to ask her to take care of the body when she was done. "I want Bob."
"Who's Bob?" Law asked. A hint of jealously tinged his voice.
"Missy wants Bob?" Ace asked in horror. He looked towards Rachel for her to either confirm or deny. He was hoping she would say he misheard Missy. Rachel only numbly nodded her head. Ace turned around abruptly and put his hand in the air in a form of a wave. "It was nice knowing you," he said to Penguine.
Rachel went to the bridge slowly. It didn't take her long to find what she was looking for. She walked back to the railing just as slowly. "Are you sure you want him?" she asked. "He's dangerous enough with me."
"Give me Bob," Missy seethed. Not wanting to anger her further, Rachel tossed Bob to the other vessel. Missy caught it in her left hand. Standing to bat was just like riding a bycicle. You play enough in high school and you never forget. Missy fell into the ready stance, almost like she was waiting for the pitch.
"Please don't kill me," Penguine pleaded. "I was only doing what the captain asked."
Missy stood up straight and turned to Rachel. "Do you have another Bob?" she asked out of the blue.
Rachel blinked and shook her head. She grabbed a tool she had casted aside from the other day. "All I have is this crowbar I use to hit my toys with when they mis-behave," she said. Before she knew what happened, Missy had leapt over and snatched the crowbar out of her hands and then back to the sub. Rachel blinked at her now empty hand. "Had, I had a crowbar." She looked up as Missy started chasing Law, yelling at him for messing with her precious creations. "Now that thing needs a name. I think I'll go with 'Chris'."
"We know that Bob stands for Bat of Beating," Sabo commented. "What's 'Chris' supposed to mean?"
"It means 'Crowbar Hits Right In Shins'," Rachel said. "When I say shins, I mean 'shins'." When Rachel said shins the second time she put both hands up, both sets of her index and middle fingers were raised. They then lowered and raised twice at the same instant she had said 'shins'. Three out of the four men around her didn't fully understand what she was getting at. Ace, however, winced in sympathy.
He looked at Law at this point. "I hope you weren't planning on having kids," he called. The rest of the guys winced in understanding. Each sending their own well wishes to Law. Thus the chase around the two ships began. Law used his devil fruit powers to gain distance on Missy. When he was on the Nunya side, Missy used short cuts to cut him off, but he quickly realized this and spent most of the chase on the sub.
"Aren't you going to stop her?" Sabo asked Rachel.
"Are you out of your mind!?" Rachel's eyes were wide as she looked at him. "That girl is pissed as hell, wielding both a bat and a crowbar better than Babe Ruth ever did. I choose to live, thanks."
"Who's Babe Ruth?" Zoro asked.
"Don't worry about it," Rachel shook her head.
In all of the excitement no one noticed the Sunny's approach until Luffy popped between Zoro and Rachel. "What the hell Luffy!?" Rachel yelled. "You scared the crab out of me." As soon as the word left her, Rachel's head started snapping back and forth. With the mood that Missy was in, goading her wasn't the best idea.
Sure enough a shout from the inside of the sub was heard. "As soon as I'm done with him Rae, you're next!"
"Is Missy and Law playing tag?" Luffy asked. "I want to play."
"No you don't Luffy," Zoro said. "This is a game of life or death."
"Luffy." The Straw Hat captain turned to the voice that called him. A man he remembers seeing only once stood off to the side. "It's good to see you again," he said.
"You're my dad right?"
"That's right."
Luffy blinked at the man a few times. He then turned to look back to the Sunny. "SANJI! I'M HUNGRY, MAKE ME A SNACK!" Ace and Sabo fell sideways onto the deck, Zoro shook his head in exasperated acceptance. Rachel slumped forward, leaning on the rail. Zoro's hands instantly went to her hips, holding her in place.
