The Copyist (One Piece & OC)

Chapter 80: A Proposition

***Amaya's POV***

"Listen you damn pirates!" A marnie shouted.

"The tanker is yours!" Another mentioned.

"And this is the line between good and evil! So don't think of crossing it! Got that, Straw Hats?!"

They sure wasted a ton of ink, making that sloppy looking line. I gazed at them as Smoky started to reprimand them for doing such a childish thing.

I was chilling on my air board as if hovered in place while Chi rested in my lap. After a bit of time, my drink-drink powers had minimized the drug's effects enough to allow me a little movement.

I glanced around our 'evil' side of the line to see what the others were up to. Brook was helping Sanji build an enormous stone stove. Lu appears to have crossed over to the 'good' side to talk to Brownbeard. I turned my head elsewhere as he and a marnie started bickering.

Over by the tanker, Franky and Usopp were assisting in repairs with a group of the marines. Robin was overseeing the whole ordeal, likely finding it humorous in her own way.

Nami was talking to Tashigi likely about the children. My rumble powers were acting up at the moment so I couldn't say for sure. Meanwhile, Chopper was screaming bloody murder about something that Law's done. Which in turn led Brook to panic about being one as well since he knocked Kin'emon over as a statue.

However, with Kin'emon's statue broken, Kin'emon was alive and well once again, somehow. But the samurai didn't get to enjoy it as Sanji promptly kicked him in the face while questioning 'why are you alive?!'

I sigh with a slight smile. I love all these weirdos.

"cHi chI chi?" She questioned.

"Yeah, it is about time for the next step. You know what that means right?" I ask, looking down at her.

"Chi cHi?" She tilted her head.

"I'm sorry, but you can't go. Not this time."

She leaned her head down. I started to pet her head slowly.

"It won't be for too long. Besides, you'll be with our friends while I'm away."

She nodded her head once in determination. "CHI!"

I smiled as I continued to pet her. It wasn't a couple of minutes later when I heard approaching footsteps. I glanced up from Chi to see a white-spotted hat wearing man approaching.

"Yo, Law? What were you up to that got Chopper in a frenzy?" I ask, thankful that my voice was back to normal instead of sounding like a dying frog.

"I chopped the kids up to get the drug out of their systems. They still have a long recovery process to go through though. Speaking of which, how are you feeling, Yaya?"

I close my eyes with a sigh. "Go ahead and see for yourself. It's easier than explaining." I gave him the go ahead as I opened my eyes to watch him.

He held his hand. "Room." The blue sphere encircled the two of us along with Chi. "You have more drugs in your veins than those kids did." He states. "Do you want me to?" His question trailed off.

"Please, Chi why don't you go get Lu and Greenie for me? I need to talk to them too."

She zipped off before Law started to slice me into pieces with the room still activated.

"This feels so odd." I muttered as he was extracting the poison.

"So I've been told." He monotones, but there was humor dancing in his eyes. Once he finished, he reassembled me.
