~Dabi~
"Where the hell did they run off too?! Those two…." Sighing, I scratched my head and sat down on the bench beside Shoto. Picking up an Onigiri from the box I bought for the both of us with the pickpocketed money I saved, a swift hand and a lot of practice is really quite handy. I glanced over at Shoto who was grumbling while nibbling on the rice, "You're not seriously upset, are you?" He didn't respond, but the brief puppy dog eye glance he gave certainly gave a clear answer.
"Look, I like fighting as much as the next villain. But last I checked, heroes don't purposefully look for a fight. I know you can take care of yourself, but as long as you're with me, I'm not sending you off into a battle unwarrantedly. So forfeited or not, you can fight later. We need at least someone saving up energy…." I assured as he glanced at me and huffed.
Chuckling, I ruffled his hair as the announcer called for all D block contestants. Shoto slightly moved, flinching a bit before turning his head toward me. He sighed and relaxed back into the seat, shoving the rest of his rice into his mouth. We got up as things in the arena seemed to pick up. Walking around, I caught a glimpse of that green mohawk fanboy who seemed to be sobbing while looking through the bars of a window.
I glanced around before sighing and walking over, immediately hearing a familiar voice as I reached the fanboy,
"Dabi?! You're in there with Luffy?!" Zoro called as my ears perked up, I pushed the mumbling sobbing mess of a person out of the way as I looked at the two.
"Zoro! Monk dude! Looks like you found your swords!"
"Nevermind that! Is Luffy with you!?"
"No, we got split up! What's going on?!"
"There's not enough time to explain! You need to find Luffy!"
At some point the green haired fanboy had taken off, probably to find Luffy, so we were left to wait….Which surprisingly didn't take all that long….
"Ah! Zoro!! Kinemon!!" I heard Luffy's voice from below as Zoro berated him for being so loud. They bantered uselessly, mentioning that the colosseum is surrounded by Navy soldiers. I tuned out most of what they were saying when they called Sanji and the others, to which Franky went off on a rant about the country's dark history and….Dwarves….? Luffy gave the go ahead to go wild and things proceeded. Putting the situation together in my head, it was a lot.
'Me, Luffy, and Shoto are in the colosseum which is currently surrounded by Navy soldiers. Sanji, Nami, Brook, Chopper, and whoever else are on the ship. Franky, Robin, Usopp, Greeny, and Blondie are with the...Dwarves….Zoro and Kin'emon are outside of the colosseum….Then Eraser and Law, seem to be facing off against Doflamingo. That would be interesting to watch, nevermind that. I thought Eraser was supposed to be in the cheering audience??' Sighing, I rubbed my temples as a headache set in. 'Guess I should prepare for chaos….'
~Eraser~
We ran through the dense forest as another meteor dropped from above, Law pulled me with him out of the way as we rolled. "Hahh….Hahh….Why isn't Nami-ya answering!? The number should be correct." Law said frantically as he held the small transponder snail.
"Damnit, why can't things ever be peaceful once in a while!?" I groaned as I jumped out of the way of some falling logs.
That damn snail finally stopped ringing as a frantic voice called out, "Hello? It's me!! Who are you!?" The familiar voice of the reindeer doctor rang from the snail.
"Tony-ya? I don't care about you. Listen.
"Eh? Torao!?"
There was a bunch of shouting and static as Law hurriedly spouted out what he needed to say. "Listen to me. Take the ship to Green Bit right away!!! I'll hand Caesar to you!!!" He quickly hung up and put the snail back into a pocket.
"Hahh….Looks like everyone's in a sticky situation right now." I noted as a large number of trees got sliced to pieces. We stopped, panting for breath as Doflamingo started talking.
"It's useless, Law!!! Who did you just call!? Huhuhuhu, give me back Caesar's heart!! It's nonsense trying to resist!!!" He went on about getting Luffy trapped in the colosseum and how he'll never get out, it was boring bragging about underestimating an opponent, or rather, opponents…."The Alliance is over. Law!!! Surrender!!!"
I sighed and stood up straight "Hah….Seriously, what are you? Some chess master? It's really not up to you when to decide if something is over, because to me….To me it looks like this is all just beginning." He turned his attention to me, a vein bulging from his forehead in anger and annoyance as he smiled grittily.
"And who are you?" He mused, seeming to lean slightly into whatever scheme he assumed I had planned.
"Just an innocent bystander being dragged along." He raised an eyebrow and laughed.
"Fufufufufu, amusing! If you truly aren't with Law or the Strawhat's then you're plenty free to leave." His words were simply sweet candy, nothing more than sounded out vowels. It's not hard to tell that he really won't let anyone even slightly involved leave.
"Wow, sweet words. You tell your mother those sweet nothings?" Aaaand, he's mad. His fingers twitched in the air, his face reddening with anger. His hand moved as I quickly activated my quirk 'Please work, please work. For the love of All Might please work!' he twitched slightly as his fingers moved around, seeming to not grip onto anything. Finally releasing the breath I had held in, Law finally got up.
"That's quite helpful." He said as I hummed.
"He can still move and use hand-to-hand combat, plus the Navy admiral is close by, we should run." I noted as he nodded, I backed up, keeping an eye on Doflamingo as Law went farther ahead. Once I thought I gave him enough time, I quickly turned around and ran. Blinking as my quirk deactivated, I ran for a while but it was quiet and no trees had been cut in my path, 'It seems they went primarily after Law. Damnit.' I suddenly heard screaming from the shore, drawing my attention. I left the crowded plantation, my eyes immediately finding Law and the others. Much to my dismay, Doflamingo seemed to have realized the plan from those screams earlier.
A few seconds passed and meteors started falling above them, it was quickly solved by Law as the ship suddenly started up, ready to speed away. Although that was the last I saw of it before I was standing next to Law on what- by my quick glances -was the bridge, "Whoa, I really can't get used to that." I looked at the person who seemed to be a hostage in Law's hand, before turning my attention to Doflamingo.
'Does he care enough for this person for her to be a hostage? Great, now I'm an accomplice in a hostage situation….Never in my life….I'll have to ask Nezu to add a "What to do when being dragged along with pirates and a villain" training course. Maybe Dabi can be the training dummy….'
