Bye Vendantia, a sad moment

"That banquet was delicious I'm stuffed" Luffy said patting his big stomach laying on a bed "Romeo said he'd give me some of the recipes, so now I can cook lots of home dishes for Anna" Sanji said blushing happily before stopping "I'm gonna miss Anna" Chopper said sadly "yea well she has to stay home and help her people, it's not like she can just leave everything and come play pirates with us" Zoro yawned from the corner of the room sleeping "Meathead! Idiot! Moss head! Stupid swordsman!" Usopp, Sanji, Luffy and chopper yelled "you say that now but you'll miss her the most" Nami said grinning "ah! No I won't " Zoro said blushing "we should probably move up the time we need to leave, I overheard some civilians talking about news of marines coming to the kingdom" Robin said "we planned to leave the day after tomorrow but it seems we might have to say bye to Anna earlier than that" Nami sighed.

"We should leave without telling her, I fear we might break her heart if she watches us leave" Robin said "yea, we should leave tomorrow evening" Nami said before Florian entered the room "your majesty?" Robin said "strawhat I have a favor to ask you" Florian said sitting on a chair "what is it old king guy?" Luffy asked before Nami hit him "be more respectful!" She yelled "during the banquet I noticed something, Anna smiles a lot when she's around you, I've gotten transponder snail calls from the marines they're looking for you I want you to take her with you, she already has a bounty on her head" Florian said.

"Your majesty you are a very influential person I'm sure if you wanted to you can erase Anna's bounty" Robin said "true I could do that, but why would I when I want her to be a pirate? She's very happy when she's around you but she wouldn't go with you of her own free will because she thinks I'll have a hard time without her. I'm sure her mother would want the same thing, I just need you gone before the marines show up so tomorrow afternoon" he said "doesn't she have a speech tomorrow?" Franky reminded "I'll send her to you just swear you'll protect my daughter strawhat, as a father that's all I ask" Florian said standing up and walking to Luffy "...ha, no need to worry we'll never let Anna get hurt she'll live" Luffy said with a grin adjusting his hat.

Next day

"Wow, you look beautiful... just like your mother" Florian said entering Anna room after she finished dressing "thank you" Anna said as he fixed her tiara "let's go riding you and I" he said before hearing coughing behind them "us too" Emai and Romeo said "what about the speech? We have to explain everything to the people" she said concerned "we'll take a transponder snail with us" he said holding up a baby transponder snail "alright, we should tell Luffy and the others we're leaving" she said "they already left, I got a call from the marines some are coming to the island so I sent them away, come let's go if the time arrives for the speech to begin and we're not back yet then we can start from wherever we are and bring Rowan with you" he said turning around and leaving.

"Annabelle, I don't know if I've told you about this but your mother was a princess" Florian said as the four rode their horses "? I know the story, you and mother met one day when her ship was caught in a storm" Anna said staring ahead "yes but that's not the whole story. You see your mother was a princess but she was also a pirate as you know by your maternal uncle Edward, her mother was a queen but had a child with a giant, which is a story for another day, your mother was out with your uncle Edward and was caught in a storm so she drifted to the island, I immediately fell in love with her carefree nature, she was always smiling talking of the sea and her big brother, it was so refreshing you wouldn't believe she was a princess. One day at a world meeting I met her again still the same carefree woman, after some time we fell in love and got married. She and I went on our travels together but had to stop after figuring out she was pregnant with you" he said stopping his horse at the edge of a cliff.

"You wouldn't believe how happy and excited she was knowing you would come...she'd read you stories and sing songs every night, then she found out she was sick and there was a possibility neither of you might make it alive during the birth, she begged me that if I were to chose who to save I should choose you, all she wanted was for you to be a happy and healthy child that's why I let you go with the strawhats the first time they arrived cause I'm sure that's what she would have wanted, for you to be free to live your life...Annabelle your mother loved you when she found out she was pregnant she loved you, even till her final breath she loved you we both love you so if you want to go with the strawhats again you should go" he said noticing Anna tears "your majesty, princess it's time for the speech to begin" Emai said handing Florian the transponder snail.
