The Admirals Wife.

Megumi watched bored as level after level passed her at impel down, she was the wife of an admiral one that every person feared in the marines and as pirates being married to him did come in handy. She couldn't believe it has been over a year since she last saw him, her fingers brushed against her wedding band, they were too late. She smiled softly to herself, she never blamed them, they moved the wedding forward a day knowing they were near.

"Ms," Domino snapped her thoughts and Megumi looked at her, "We are at level six Ms are you…"

Megumi snapped her fingers silencing the woman, "Wait here, the guards will lead me and you can report back to my husband and you can tell him where I am."

Domino froze never being spoken like that before in her life but the woman in front of her was a Celestial dragon and the wife of a marine admiral. She was a woman no one could say no to.

Ace glanced away from Jimbei as he heard the clicking of heels, hopping it wasn't Sadi he could not be asked to deal with that woman again. He heard many wolf whistles and cat calls as the heels seemed to get closer then the person.

His eyes widened as Megumi stood in front him, she was dressed differently from when he last remembered seeing her. She wore a deep red dress that pinched in her waist and lifted her chest, the skirt brushed the ground every step she took. Another collar encircled her throat bright silver with red gems, her hair was left down curling around her in her hands clutched a key.

"Megumi….?" He questioned. The woman nodded her head holding her hands up to her mouth looking on the verge of tears, "No… No need to cry love." Ace smiled softly at her watching as she knelt down in front of his cell, "It's good to see you again."

"I thought I never would," She whispered softly her hands reaching through the bars softly touching his cheek, her fingers were smooth and soft brushing over his face. Ace turned his head and kissed the finger tips softly, "I've missed you….. so much."

He laughed softly, "We have missed you too… Pops and Marco have especially."

"How did you end up like this," She whispered.

"Do you know the warlord that has replaced Crocodile?"

She shook her head, "No…. but he was the one that captured you correct?"

"Megumi, Teach betrayed us he killed Thatch," Ace deadpanned not looking at her.

Megumi froze pulling her hand away from him, shaking her head tears brimming in her eyes, "No…."

"I'm sorry," He stated not looking at her.

"Ms," Domino interrupted pulling her away from Ace, "Your husband is on the den den."

"I have to go…." She whispered softly looking back at Ace.

He nodded in understanding smiling at her, "You better go… I hope you didn't get yourself in trouble over me."

"You are worth the trouble," She smiled and left.

"You are a lucky one," Jimbei stated, "She cares for you."

Ace sighed leaning his head back against the wall, "If we knew where she was…. I would of gone to war for her."

AN: Basically this is been sitting about in my mind for awhile and just wanted to write it, but in simple terms Megumi did marry Akainu and never returned to the Whitebeard Pirate crew, she found out that Ace was in impel down and pulled a lot of strings to finally see him again... Also have a dark thought on her meeting Doflamingo actually...
