[Law's POV]
She was a part of a scientific experiment by the World Government!

However, the files stated that she failed and sent her to death. There is a chance she escaped from here and somehow reached the Grand Line.

I quickly hide the file in a corner and keep the stack of files in its original place.

She should not see this now. I will keep it with me later when the situation allows for it.

What does Project Hades mean?  What is Pluton?What are Ancient Weapons and why do they want to re-create one? Does her abilities have a huge power that no one could estimate?

What was the World Goverment planning back then?

Is that why she was uncontrollable when she fought against Croccodile? Or the Death like Aura she releases being connected to all of this?

And how is it powerful that she doesn't sink in the sea despite having some form of a devil fruit ability.

I shouldn't have brought her here. She will get in trouble if anyone finds this out.

[Y/N POV]
(Age 11-12)

" Test Failed!"

A woman in a white coat slapped me and spat on the floor, " Another Failure!"

" Don't be so harsh on the kids, [*****]."  Another woman's voice chimes in

" I am not being harsh, I am worried that [********] will be angry with us and Professor Vegapunk will be in trouble."

" I understand but..not towards the kids..."the second woman chimed politely

I can't see her face but I could hear her voice. It felt like an angel has arrived in this hell. She was wearing a mask with a white uniform. Her hair was covered in a hat with a little peak of bright blonde.

" I will escort this little girl out."

She takes my hand and walks outside.
" Can you tell me your name?" She asks as soon as we walk out of the lab

" Its Y/N....Minerva....Grace." I reply nervously
" It's a beautiful name. What do you miss?"

" My Home...Family...The friends I had here."
" What happened to your friends?"
" I heard that being a failure means death."

She shook her head. I can't see her face.
" You are not a failure!"
" I hope so that I am not."

The door to my living space opened. Filled with scars, blood and sweat.

Why am I still alive?

I look at the mountain of corpses. Young kids like me, we fought each other till death to live.

But What's the point to live? I don't want to live like this!

(Back to Present Day)

I felt a jolt in my head and I woke up. However, My body can't move. My eyes blink rapidly due to the strong lights from the tubelights.

Is this place connected to those memories? Was that lady right about my questions being answered?

I sit upright and look for Law-san.

He's not present in the room. I quickly change into a pair of cargo pants, a brown full sleeve shirt, fingerless gloves, combat boots and a zip-up Green hoodie.

I wear my mask and carry my knives as I go outside.

I hear Law-San's groan and his words, "Alright, I will do that for the two of us."

Law-San is standing at the end of the hallway with Casear Clown. The two of them shake their hands though he had a dissapointed look.

" Okay, We will go ahead for that operation in the evening." Caesar responded

Law-San rolled his eyes and noticed me

" Nightshade-ya! You woke up?" Law-San speaks with a smirk

" Er...yes, Trafalgar! I was just looking for a meal." I reply back with a fake sigh

" Great! I wanted to talk to you about something." he said with a cough

" I will send someone with the meals. Don't expect a five star dinning experience here, Surgeon of Death." Caesar Clown quiped

" Do your worst, Scientist!" Law-San spoke with a business like smile

We walk back to the room and I lift my mask off.

" Law-San, I wanted to tell you something...I saw another vision or dream or I think my past memories."

He plonks on thr bed opposite to me, " What wad it, Y/N-ya?"

" A failed Experiment, I was called a failure. There was some lady but I couldn't hear here name...they were talking about someone being angry...Vegapunk in trouble..."

I continue to ramble whatever I could remember.

" I know my full name now, Y/N Minerva Grace."
" Y/N Minerva Grace." I say it again

He gives a soft smile, " Y/N Minerva Grace, fitting for my supportive girlfriend."

There are some loud knocks on the door. I wear my mask quickly.

Law-San snatches the tray in a swift motion while he sighs.

" Bread." he mumbled

The tray had two sandwiches, juice boxes and apples.

" I will eat the sandwiches. You can have the rest." I say while taking the sandwiches away

He eats the apple in silence as I eat the dry Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwiches.

" I will make some riceballs when we are back on the Tang."
" Really? You know how to make it."
" Without Dried Plums for sure."

" How do you know that?" He asks while leaning on the wall
" I made them for you! The day the crew was out hunting on a deserted island."
" Those Lunches?" he pointed to the tray
" By yours truly." I reply with a small bow

" So, they lied..." he whispered

That duo definately lied. Those two must have connected the dots before we could and taught me to make those rice balls that Law-San likes.

We eat the remaining lunch and walk out of the room. We walk towards the operation theater for Blizzard aka Monet's operation.

A lady in a labcoat approached Law-San.

" Dr. Trafalgar, the operation theater is ready."
" Alright, see you then, Nightshade!"

He leaves with her. I see the Green haired girl behind the glasspane in the adjusent room , looking tensed.

" May I come in?" I ask
" You came. Didn't expect it." Monet commented
" Yeah...It just.."
" Seeing me lose the bet for the first time?"

" Definately not! I remember the one where they dunk glitter slime on you when you lost that fight with Alvida." I say sarcasitically

" Ha ha ha..so funny." she mocks me

The silence comes back to the room. Awkward Tension forms between us.

" I asked Trafalgar something regarding the operation and he agreed to do that."
" What?"
" You will see after that operation. It might make you feel good."

" Thanks. Though, Why are you helping me?" she asks me
" Like that." I replied and left the room

My head hurts!
