Grateful
*For people who don't know, Baby 5 is one of Doflamingo's crew members :P
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Baby 5 stormed into the living room with a roughly wrapped package slung over her shoulder. She casually threw the parcel on the ground in front of the feet of her captain.
Then the raven haired girl crossed her arms and proceeded to glare at the flamboyant man in front of her as she smoked a cigarette.
Domflamingo ignored the icy glares that Baby 5 sent him. And simply turned his shaded eyes over to the package, greedily taking in the view
"Open it ." He ordered gleefully as he leaned forward. He almost seemed like a kid waiting to open up his presents on christmas.
Baby 5 frowned at the request. "And why the hell would I listen to your orders, Captain." She growled as she defiantly stood her ground.
Doflamingo continued to remain calm. He examined his manicured hand as his voice playfully sounded. " I heard you found a new boyfriend on your trip-."
That was all he needed to say. Baby 5 immediately let out a huff and stomped over to the parcel.
"I don't see why you can't just open it yourself," She grumbled as her fingers tore at the brown paper. "What so special about thi-"
The raven haired girl froze mid sentence. Her eyes widened as the cigarette fell from her mouth and landed on the ground, small embers still burning from it.
"Careful." Doflamingo sang from his seat. "We wouldn't want any damage. It is new after all."
Baby 5 turned her eyes towards her captain. "What are you planning." she asked accusingly with narrowed eyes.
"Nothing at all. "Doflamingo replied as he gestured to the parcel. "Just think of it as a....younger sister."
At that moment the parcel began to stir more. The flamboyant man grinned wider as he watched Vegapunk's creation awake.
Pale eyelids fluttered open to reveal lifeless sea green eyes. They blinked as they grew accustomed to the light. The face began to twitch as the girl tested her new found motion.
She gazed around, taking in the room before her. A normal person would have freaked out in her position, but she couldn't remember how to express that emotion. Or any emotion for that fact.
Her sight finally focused on a blonde haired man that lay reclined on the couch. He grinned at her with a wide smile.
A spark occurred in the back of her mind, but the girl couldn't remember where she had seen the man before.
"Welcome back to the living." The man replied to her in a mesmerizingly deep voice.
"Water Demon Misaki."

Misaki POV
(Two Years Later)
"The Young Master requests to see you...." Baby 5 said as she peeked her head into my room.
I was sitting on my plank like bed, my feet firmly planted on the ground, as I stared at my pale hands. The sunlight shone brightly through the tainted window, but the room was still icy cold.
How should I feel." I asked quietly as I lifted my head.
"Grateful." Baby 5 answered without missing a beat. She had grown accustomed to my question since she visited me everyday.
I nodded and stood up, unconsciously touching a scar on my stomach in the process.
It didn't hurt, it was just a habit . A reminder that the Young Master had saved me when no one else could.
Yet something in the back of my mind would always give me an uneasy feeling when I thought about this.
And so I would continue to ask: How should I feel?
And her answer would always be: Grateful.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Fuuufuuu....Misaki, so nice to see you." The Blonde haired captain greeted as I entered the brightly lit room. He sat there, reclined on the leather sofa, wearing his bright, pink feathered cloak, a glass of wine held playfully in his hands.
" Why did you wish to see me?" I asked as I stood still in front of him.
The Captain let out a small huff. " As emotionless as ever." He commented. Then he gave a wide smile. " But that's what I love about you." He added as he sat up straighter and reached for something.
A woolen bag flashed through the air in a blink of an eye. I immediately caught it before it could crash into my face.
It clattered loudly as it rammed into my palm.
The Young Master gave a nod of approval as he watched this." 100,000 Beli and a small ship." He spoke. " That's what I'm giving you to start you off."
I raised an eyebrow as I continued to hold the bag of money. " To start me off for what, Sir?" I asked evenly.
The Captain just gave a chuckle. " On your purpose in this world." he answered as he gave a slight wave and reclined back in his seat.
" But my assistant will give you the details later." He said as he placed his hands behind his head. " For now, your test will be to reach him."
" And where is your assistant?" I asked slowly, without taking my eyes off the Young Master.
There was a silence between us. The he grinned again and let out a low laugh before answering.
"Sabody Archipelago."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I walked down to the docks of Dressrosa Island. Taking in the feeling of actual sunlight in my skin.
For two years I had stayed in the Young master's house, training with his subordinates. And even though the constant fighting kept me busy, being outside was a whole new feeling.
Exhilarating.
My feet finally took me to the end of the wooden dock, where a single metal ship no larger than three feet sat, floating in the water. I bent down, frowning, as I examined it closer.
How the hell am I suppose to work this thing? There aren't even any oars.
"It's powered by your Devil Fruit." A voice interrupted my thoughts.
I tilted my head up to find a black haired woman standing there, a newly lite cigarette in her mouth.
Baby 5 pointed at a strange contraption attached to the end of the ship. "It runs when jets of water are sent through these propellers. "She explained with a wink. "Designed especially for you."
I stared at her for a moment. She had been one of the closest people to me during my stay.
"Thank you." I finally murmured.
I felt as if I should have shown her something more as gratitude, but I didn't know what.
Suddenly, Baby 5 yanked me towards her. Her arms wrapped around me in a tight hug.
I froze up, unsure why to do.
"I'm...gonna miss you, Misaki." she whispered in my ear, as she continued to hug me. "You were like the little sis I never had."
Even though I couldn't see her, I could almost picture the gentle smile she had on.
Something twitched in my chest. Was it the old scar acting up?
"How should I feel?" I finally managed to ask.
Baby 5 let go of me and placed her hands on either side of my shoulders.
"Happy." She replied, the ghost of a smile still on her.
Then she released my shoulders and slowly walked away.
I stood there in shock for a moment. My eyes blinked.
Then blinked again.
I turned towards the small metal ship, my eyebrows furrowed.
I'm sorry, Baby 5. I thought as I shook my head and boarded the ship.
But that's impossible.

(A Deserted Island near Amazon Lily)
The snow settled down on the ground covering the earth in a blanket of white.
A single snowflake landed on the straw hat that sat in the rock.
A hand reached out and grabbed the hat, shaking the snow off the top.
"Luffy!" Called a feminine voice in the distance.
"Yeah, yeah...I'm coming!" the raven haired boy replied. Then he turned his eyes back to the hat in his hand.
Yosh! He thought in his mind as he placed the straw hat on his head. The familiar hat fitted perfectly on his head.
The boy gave a wide grin. One he hadn't been able to show in a very long time.
Time to return to Sabody. He thought happily.
Time to meet my crew again.
