Drum Island

Aikyō said her goodbyes to Law wanting to get a move on to get to the Island Ace was on; he hadn't written her back a letter per say it was more of a note it was the name of a town,Robelle. Aikyō looked through the book Pancha had left for her teleporting herself and her ship there going in her cabin she received a call,

"Oi is this thing even working??"

It was Sanji speaking so she said,

"Yeah it's working! Are you guys alright?"

Sanji spoke,

"Oh hey yeah uhm actually Nami got sick, she was bitten by something at Little Garden so we're making a stop at Drum Island..Where are you? We could really use your advice-"

Aikyō said,

"You need to put her in warm layers. Drum Island is a snowy cold place, no wet rags on her head until she's in a building in town somewhere.Give me the name of the town you're in and I'll get there as soon as I can since I'm on my way already."

Sanji said,

"Thanks I'll get to that- I'll call you back."

Aikyō went to her closet looking for something warm to wear she couldn't help but create a hoodie similar to that of Law's that she had worn except hers was a dark green with bronze colored fur around the neck.She situated her weapons in their holsters wearing special snow boots coming out onto the deck making her way to the helm so she could find a place to dock when she did she brought the anchor down looking at the town cautiously.

Aikyō never really liked quiet empty seeming towns it gave her an unsettling feeling, glancing at her book there was a little map of where everything was so she decided stopping at the only restaurant in town might be a good idea.The place should have been covered in snow and somehow the snow was melting here.Aikyō walked carefully to the restaurant entering going straight to the counter asking,

"You have any cakes?I'm in need of a proper meal too-"

The man shook his head pointing as someone whose face was embedded in a plate of food at the right corner of the restaurant.He said,

"Man there came in and has been eating all our food since a few days ago, he's been looking for a boy you don't look like the one he's describing.He needs to pay too.."

Aikyō scoffed,

"So this place ain't got anymore food whatsoever?"

The man nodded,

"We ain't gonna get a shipment of supplies for a good bit too-Ya saw. The weather out there I mean you're a newcomer and all but it always snows and well since that man's been here we ain't had none people starting to consider growing some stuff possibly."

Aikyō spoke,

"I can offer you supplies as I have plenty for you if you will give me some maps of this island."

The man thought about it staring at the man in the corner saying,

"You take care of him and you can even use the room up top in the attic to rest."

Aikyō shook his hand,

"You got yourself a deal what's your name?"

The man smiled,

"It's Bennie.."

Aikyō said,

"I am.. Aikyō it's a pleasure meeting you I'll have a chat with him."

Aikyō walked over to the table slamming her hands on it waking up the man his head was cover by his hat which had two strange bead smiley faces on it.He shot up blinking his eyes a few times he was shirtless a red beaded necklace hung around his throat and Aikyō's heart nearly stopped realizing it was Ace.She said,
