Figuring it Out [Whitebeard Pirates x Child? Reader]

21. Even Farther...

-July 15th
1 Month Time-skip

M/n flipped through pages in his book, walking around his room in circles as he recited the words. His mother had found out about the contact with the Newgates and took his phone. So, He was shit out of luck with contact. She had almost hit him the other day, though Toby didn't seem to understand why M/n would want to get hurt. Of course, M/n and Toby had talked about their plan privately.

Toby was all for it, somehow remembering what had been done to their father. M/n was tasked with being able to speak in full Russian sentences by the end of the month. Thanks to his previous education and love for learning new things, whether they were legal or not. This was partially easy.

"Цветы в саду выглядят очень красиво." (The flowers in the garden look very beautiful.)

M/n snapped the book shut, tossing it onto his desk. He wasn't allowed to leave his room unless it was for the bathroom or for food. Any other reason would be unacceptable. He had recorded her saying it... Thankfully he had put it onto his computer before she took his phone. He felt a small tingle in his fingertips, His powers had been building upon his lack of use. M/n's mother had put another one of those bracelets on him and all he could do was mildly shock people. There wasn't any real use.

He had been trying to think of a way to use it to his advantage but nothing came to mind. A small knock on his door took him out of his thoughts. Opening his door he let Toby in.

"I gave the Letter to Mr. Crocodile...Like you said" Toby whispered

"Good...She's made me cut contact with the Newgate's but she doesn't know I'm smarter... I know my way around the back streets..."

"M/n... She's getting suspicious of how obident you've been..."

"Obedient, Toby. I know, but I've got no other choice...unless"

M/n tilted his head a little his eyes unfocused, Toby knew this as M/ns 'thinking' face. M/n started pacing around his room while his brother sat on his bed. Toby like watching his brother think, M/ns process was funny to him.M/n would start tilting his head, pacing, messing with papers and then he would smirk. It was the same every time. It never got old.

Currently, in the process, M/n was messing with papers writing things down grabbing books flipping through them until he had what he needed-

The door slammed open, M/n immediately stopped, turning to see who had come into their room.

"Toby. Leave." M/n said calmly. Toby left in a hurry, worried for his brother but did as he was told.

Once Toby had left the room M/ns mother slammed the door shut, Several Servants exited the premises. Not wanting a repeat of last time for those who knew what happened... What Truly, happened. M/ns mother began tearing through his room. Looking for any sign of Disobedience. 

M/n smirked, He knew this was driving his mother insane. How well behaved he had been, How calm... He had been. None of it made sense to her. She continued to scour his room uninterrupted, Stopping for a moment. She turned to M/n, seeing his devious smirk.

"That's your plan, isn't it! Be so Obedient it drives me Insane until I finally cave!?" She screamed, She raised her hand, slapping M/n across the face, "I got rid of your way of filing any proof. Good luck sharing that with the press. M/n scowled, acting as if he had lost.

"You may have won the battle...Aurelia... But you haven't won the War." M/n growled, the lights in the home flickering, Aurelia jumped, snapping her head towards M/n...The bracelet... It was cracked...

She looked Horrified... M/n was only Eleven... How was she supposed to keep him in check if she didn't have any... Leverage... She calmed herself, keeping composure.

"Don't do that. Actually... I can just send you to Boarding school... Or at least a school with dorms for the next few years... That should keep you in check... You'll only be allowed to see Toby on holiday. Pack your things I have a few calls to make." She hummed, M/n was furious. He could feel the pulses of Energy around him. Traveling throughout the house. Suddenly Dark storm clouds swarmed the area...

A Large bolt of Lightning Struck the house. Screams of servants Rang in His ears. His hair lifted, Electricity pulsing in waves around his body. Toby stepped into the room, he had been eavesdropping.

"M-M/n... Was this a part of the plan?..."

M/n calmed himself, "No. No, it wasn't...Toby. Don't let her hurt you, and God...Please... Don't let her order you around..."

"I Won't!" Toby smiled brightly...

By the next morning, M/n was shipped out to some posh school. It was a school for only the elite. So he was going to have a very hard time finding any friends in that school. It's not like he even needed them. The ones he did need, would be miles, upon Miles, away from him... Toby... Milo... Pops... Thatch... All of them. They'd be gone... He was abandoning them without choice.

This was going to be pure... Hell...
