Law x OC: The Surgeon and the Assassin

Chapter 1: Dr. Heartstealer

Kid dropped me in the port of a small winter island, where Law's ship would soon arrive - according to "reliable sources" that he wouldn't reveal to me. It was freezing cold, and even though I was wearing a thick black jacket, I was still trembling.

When is that idiot going to arrive? It's been two hours already, I'm gonna freeze here! I thought, and decided I was going to punch Kid when I returned.

At that moment, bubbles appeared on the surface of the water, and it looked like something was going to arise from there. I instinctively hid behind some boxes and came across a really weird sight.

Out of the water arose a yellow submarine, with the Heart Pirates' symbol painted on its side. Then, a small door on the submarine's ceiling opened and out of it came Trafalgar Law, a polar bear in an orange jumpsuit, a guy wearing a hat with the word "Penguin" on it and another guy who wore sunglasses and a pink and green hat.

What a bunch of weirdos, I thought, then focused my attention on Trafalgar Law.

He was wearing the same hat as in the wanted poster, a black and yellow hoodie with the Heart Pirates' symbol on it, blue jeans with black dots and some really weird black shoes. He was also holding a katana, which made him look even more weird. Despite his oufit, he was tall and good-looking.

W-what am I thinking!? I mentally slapped myself. Focus on the mission, you idiot!

I was supposed to approach them and ask them to join their crew, but I had to be careful not to make them suspect me. I decided not to talk to the captain immediately, since he seemed sharp and would probably understand that something was wrong. Instead, I decided to approach the other two guys, which looked easier.

"Um... excuse me..." I said walking towards them. "Could you be the Heart Pirates?"

They turned towards me simultaneously.

"Yup, that's us, miss!" said the guy with the sunglasses.

"We are the famous - or, maybe, infamous - Heart Pirates!" said the other one.

Yeah, these two were idiots. piece of cake.

"Aww, this is great!" I said smiling. "My name is Azami and ever since I heard about you, I have been dreaming to join your crew! Would you allow me on board? I know how to fight and I think I could be useful!"

They exchanged some looks with meanings I couldn't decipher, and then turned back at me. Their look was serious, and I anxiously brought my hand closer to my thigh, where I was keeping my knives. If it came down to it, I would kill them without a second thought. Then...

"Sure!" they said at the same time. Then the guy with the sunglasses said:

"I'm Sachi and this is Penguin. We'll introduce you to the captain right away!"

I followed them to the submarine. They were whispering to each other, but I could hear some phrases like: "finally a woman crewmate", "she has a nice body" and "let's peek when she's in the bathroom".

And perverts to boot, I thought. I wonder what else awaits me in this crazy submarine.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

I entered through the small round door, climbed down some stairs and arrived to the main corridor of the submarine.

"This way" Penguin said and I followed him and Sachi. We passed through many doors and different rooms, and I realised that if I had entered the submarine by myself, I would have definitely been lost.

"Are you sure Captain is back?" Sachi asked Penguin.

"Of course!" he replied. "I saw him re-entering the sub 15 minutes ago."

After a while, we arrived in front of a metal yellow door with the words "Captain's room" on it. Sachi knocked it and yelled: "Captain, are ya there? There's someone here who wants to join us!"

"Come in" a voice answered. It was calm but rather cold and creepy, so different from Kid's loud but warm tone.

Penguin opened the door and he and Sachi made room for me to enter. After I stepped inside, they close the door behind them, leaving me alone with Trafalgar Law.

The room was big and bright. Its walls were yellow and the floor was black and white and it looked like a chessboard. In one corner there was one round bed with yellow sheets with the Heart Pirates' mark on them. It seemed rather comfortable. Next to it was a white wardrobe with black dots and a soft black carpet, shaped like a bear's head.

What the hell with this decoration? I thought surprised. On second thought, though, it kinda fits him.

At the other corner of the room there was an old wooden desk which didn't fit at all with the rest furniture. Trafalgar Law was sitting behind it, on a big black and yellow chair, with his dark eyes staring at me, evaluating me. He had taken his hat off, and now his messy black hair were falling in front of his eyes. I could say he was cute, if not for his creepy, ironic smile.

We stayed like this for some time -felt like ages to me- when he finally decided to break the silence.

"Take off your coat."

"Excuse me?" What the hell!?

He smiled. "I said, take off your coat."

I stared at him for a minute, trying to figure out whether he was joking or not. Then reluctantly I unbuttoned my long grey coat and let it fall on the ground.

"As I thought" he said, sattisfied with his guess. "You fight with knives."

"Tsk." Under my coat I was wearing a black leather jacket, black leggins and black boots. On each of my thigh was a garter with four knives. There was also a bunch of knives hanging from a belt on my waist, and, although he couldn't possibly know, I had a knife hidden in each of my boots.

I didn't waste any time. It wouldn't matter if I told him anyway.

"You're right" I said with an arrogant face. "I'm a trained assassin, after all. That's why I said I could be useful." I hesitated for a second and then continued. "If you want to test me, I don't mind duelling with a member of the crew."

"Don't underestimate us, woman" he said and stood up. He walked towards me and stopped right in front of me. "Let me be blunt. I don't trust you the least bit. Nevertheless, I kind of see something in you, and I want to find out what" he said. His face was so close I could feel his warm breath on me. I felt my ears turning red. "So I'm going to accept your little challenge." he continued. "If you win, you're in the crew."

"T-that's great!" I said, wondering whether he had discovered I worked for Kid. "So... who will I fight with?"

"Me." he said. His eyes glittered with enthusiasm as he leaned forward and whispered in my ear: "I can't wait to dissect you."
