You sat on the floor of this strange home and cried. You didn't like it, everything was strange. A man with blond hair knelt in front of you and made silly faces, but the scar on his left eye scared you. So you cried louder.
"Sabo your scaring her." Luffy says bluntly, staring at you while Sabo tried to make you laugh.
"Well I don't see you helping." He huffs with a slight pout. Ace had fallen asleep on the couch almost immediately after they returned home with two new children. A boy, and a girl.

The girl had sat herself in the middle of the room and started crying, while the boy stood next to the front door glaring at everyone.
"That one looks grumpy." Luffy, once again, states bluntly. Sabo looks over at the boy, who just pulls his fuzzy cap over his face.
"Aaace..." Sabo throws a shoe at the oldest, who just rolls onto his side. Sabo huffs and stands up, walking over to the freckled man.
"Help..." He says while pulling the man off the couch. Ace lands on the ground with a thud.

"Owww...Dammit Sabo.." Ace sighs, looking over at you, who still had big tears streaming down your cheeks. You were looking at him a bit concerned.
"You okay?" You asks softly, sniffling. Ace gives you a big smile and picks himself off the ground and walks over to you. You lean away from him when he kneels down to your height. He pats the top of your head.
"I'm okay.~" He hums while sitting crossed legged on the floor in front of you. You look up at him and wipe your eyes with your fists, still sniffling.

Luffy gets up and walks over to Law, who glares daggers at him.
"Hi!" He greets, picking the boy up. Law freaks out and tries to wiggle away from him. Luffy just laughs and hugs the boy.
"Come on lets play!" He says taking the boy upstairs, Sabo watches him and sighs.

"They don't like me..." He pouts slightly, You look up at him and hide behind Ace.
"It's cause your eye is scary..."You said, making Ace laugh. Sabo glares at him to shut up, he tilts his hat over his eye and walks over to you.
"Better?" He asks, tilting his head a bit. You look at him for a minute then you smile widely.
"Yep!" You grin, he grins back and picks you up.

"Good! I'd be sad if you kept hating me." He says tickling you. You screech and giggle, trying to wiggle away from him. Ace laughs at the sight.
"God you both are adorable..." He teases earning a weak glare from the blond.
"Oh shut up..." He sighs.

"Room." You hear the boy from the top of the steps, the whole room gets a blue tint. The older two pale slightly, they were warned about this.
"What's that?" You ask looking around curiously.
"Take her outside..." Ace tells him and Sabo nods and takes you out into the front yard. You hear yelling and crashing sounds just as the door closes.
"What was that?" You ask looking up at Sabo who fixes his hat on his head, you look at his face and frown. He looks at you and gives you a big smile.

"Want some ice cream?" He asks and you grin again.
"Yeah!!" You cheer, he chuckles and starts walking down the street. He prays silently under his breath that when he comes home he will still have two brothers.
