-2 Years later-
Luffy's P.O.V.
It was time to go. Time to go back to my crew. Time to tell Ace I'll see you later. Time to find out what Marco decides. If he still loves me. I got much stronger. So did Ace. I can't wait to see how everyone is. How much stronger we all got.
"LUFFYYYY. WHERE ARE YOUUUU? IT"S TIME TO GO!"
Ace's voice rang throughout the trees.
"I'M COMING!"
I grabbed my hat which I haven't worn in 2 years and put it on my head finally feeling complete. I met up with Ace who with this snake lady who always has a fever around Ace. It was a mystery.
Ace's P.O.V.
As Hancock took us to Saboady on her ship I thoght about Luffy. My little sister had grown up so much over the years. She still attracted trouble and thought meat was the cure for everything, She was still so innocent and childish even tho she was 19 now. I noticed as each day came closer to when we would get to Saboady she would go stare out at the sea. As of right now she volunteered for watch duty. I knew what she was watching for. Or rather who. Marco. Pop's first division commander, My best friend and brother. Each night the past to years she would scream out his name in her sleep. Along with I'm sorry and please forgive me. I wondered what happened. As much as I wanted to protect her and didn't want her having a boyfriend, I accepted Marco. I'd rather she date him then that sappy love cook on her crew. I know she gave him an option if he wanted her back. I knew he would. But as we arrived in Saboady Pop was already there and the whole crew greeted us except the first division commander. And half the first division wasn't either. My first reaction was that he wanted to hurt Luffy and he got over her. That was until I saw Thatch. My lover, He's eyes were red and puffy and watery. His hair wasn't in his normal style. And he looked like he just came out of a fight. I leaped over already flaming demanding to know what happened. Though I have to admit I didn't expect Pop's to intercept me and tell me,
"Marco was taken hostage under seastone cuffs by the marines and to get him back we are to turn in you and Luffy alive. He was on a mission with Thatch about 2 days and when they got ambushed and somehow they put a cage around him where he couldn't escape. They let Thatch escape seeing him as no threat and to tell us of the conditions. Thatch just got back to us today"
"Did they hurt him?" I was starting to flame in anger
" Not me but they pierced through Marco's stomach while he was in seastone, They were going to kill me when he flung himself in front of me and took the hits and stabs. He made a promise that as long as I could go free he would take what was planned for me. When I asked him why he told me he made a promise and to give this to Luffy." Thatch was holding a letter out to Luffy.
I turned to her not surprised she was listening. The moment she probably heard Marco's name she probably was paying attention.
Luffy's P.O.V.
I took the letter from Thatch as I stood there feeling numb. When I first saw no Marco I thought he decided he didn't want me. But then the old man said he got captured and they could only get him back if they turned in me and Ace. The rest I didn't really understand. I turned my attention back to the letter that was in my hands. Unfolding it and reading it
Lu-chan,
If you are reading this instead of seeing me then that means I failed. I was stupid and got captured by the marines. I gave my life up so Thatch could get this to you. The marines that have me captured said they won't kill me until they have you. I want you to get your crew and continue on your journey. Don't come try to rescue me. I don't want even a chance of you getting hurt. As long as they can't get you I'll be alive and if I'm alive I can escape. They want you as a breeder. Some one that delivers babies so they can have more marines. Take care Luffy. I'm sorry I got caught. Become the Pirate Queen then you can come get me if I couldn't escape by then. Your friend Rayleigh comes and visits me when he can sneak in. We are thinking of an escape plan for me together. If I can I'll give him a letter to give to you. The marines think you and your crew are meeting up at fishman Island not here. So when you get there please be careful. Can't wait to see you again. I Love You
~Marco
P.S. Tell Ace I'm sorry I almost failed my promise to him.
