It was a around 7 in the morning the sun was beginning to rise it was foggy as hell outside dagger woke up to a chill on her stomach and slowly sat up looking around the room she was still half asleep when she felt a hand on her knee she looked down seeing the imprint on a hand her eyes widened "m..m...marco" she said stuttering she heard him groan before snoring again "marco" she said again she heard him groan again and sit up slightly before looking at her "what's wrong?" he asked "I.. think there's someone else in here" she said still staring down at the hand print "why what makes you say that?" he asked "someone's got their hand on my leg" she said marco's eyes widened and he stood up quickly she went to move out of the bed but couldn't pull her leg from the grasp she turned her leg to iron and grabbed a dagger from her skin before stabbing the hand she heard a growl and saw blood begin to drip from her dagger marco ran over to her and quickly pulled her up away he kept her protectively behind him "don't you have some kind of defense in your devil fruit?" he asked she nodded "porcupine shield" she  said "that's a stupid name" he said she shrugged "it works though" she said knives dropped from her body before surrounding the two "i don't know what or where this guy is but he's still in here" he said "i can sense him my haki is kicking in" she said looking up she saw a man who looked a little like a chameleon "m..marco" she stuttered "what's wrong?" he asked "up there" she said marco looked up to see the man "ah geez what is that?" he asked "he looks like a chameleon" she said marco was confused stepping out from daggers shield he looked up "come down here and fight like a man" marco said the man laughed turning invisible again before they heard him hit the ground with a thud followed by laughter "can you tell me where he is?" marco asked he's 3 feet in front of you he's going to dodge left" she said marco moved and went from the lift so he could hit him he felt his fist make contact with him "he's down" she said he became visible again she retreated her blades just as he got up and clasped her wrist with a sea prism cuff her eyes widened and her knees went weak "shit" she muttered the chameleon man picked her up over his shoulder and began running "let me go!" she shouted it cause the other commanders to wake up cause she saw them run out of their rooms "let go!" she shouted again punching the man in the back of the head a couple times the sea prism was slowly draining her energy so her blow  weren't as strong as they were suppose to be she could hear running footsteps and looked up to see the commanders chasing them down the hall she kept hitting him and kicking him she felt the cool foggy air from the deck on her back she knew they were on the deck "let go" she said gun fire was heard and the man dodged it "careful izo if you hit herby accident from his dodging she'll die" marco said "why?" izo asked "he's got a sea prism cuff on her" marco said the next thing dagger felt was heat a lot of it, it felt like fire when she was suddenly dropped she could smell smoke and saw the man was on fire instantly she got up and took off in the opposite direction of the man running face first into something solid as she bounced back she felt arms wrap around her "sorry" she muttered looking up her eyes widened "ace" she said her voice barley above a whisper he looked quite upset as he pulled her against him she felt a smile come onto her lips for the moment the chameleon man's eyes widened as he saw ace holding onto dagger protectively "were you trying to kidnap her?" ace asked his voice was completely serious izo had run over to ace and dagger "izo make sure nothing happens to her" ace said izo nodded taking dagger and heading into the ship "ah this is all my fault I let my guard down" she said izo put a hand on her shoulder "trust me it's not your fault it's o ones but that man's thinking he could sneak onto our ship and try to kidnap our sister" izo said dagger nodded after about ten minutes izo took dagger to her room so she could sleep a while longer izo dropped her off at her room knowing that the chameleon man was gone ace had taken care of it ace entered daggers room with her jacket, sword, boots and the key to the cuffs that were on her left hand he hung her jacket up put her boots next to her bed and placed her sword on the night stand before taking the cuffs off her wrist before going to his own room to sleep for a couple hours before reporting to his father a few hours  went by and dagger woke up she got dressed in her usual clothes noticing the cuffs were gone before pulling on her jacket she walked out of the room shutting the door behind her she walked out on deck stretching with a yawn she walked over and sat at the table with the guys "i had the weirdest dream" she said "i know what your thinking and it wasn't a dream" marco said "really? so I can finally be left in peace?" she asked marco nodded "oh thank god!" she shouted happily before a chuckle caught her ear she looked over seeing ace at the doors she smiled "go on" marco whispered to her she chuckled before standing up knocking the chair over she ran to ace he opened his arms and she jumped into them his arms wrapped around her torso as she leaned into his chest "you were gone to long" she said he laughed "i know sorry" he said she looked up and smiled at him "i'm glad you came back when you did though" she said he chuckled "i am too" he said "oi you two are you gonna play or just  stand there all day?" thatch teased he received a smack from izo and marco "owwww" thatch whined "come on" ace said  letting go of her she followed  him back to the table she sat between him and izo "looks like your not depressed anymore" jozu commented receiving a swat from izo daggers cheeks tinted pink and she turned her head slightly she heard quiet chuckles from everyone around the table "hey it's not my fault you guys are boring" she said "not you izo your pretty fun" dagger said she received a gentle pat on the head jozu, marco and thatches jaws dropped "were fun" they said "you guys do the same thing everyday" she said they scratched the backs of their necks awkwardly "oi lets play already" ace said and the subject changed dagger smirked as she managed to embarrass thatch and jozu as they did to her. they played cards for two hours before thatch lost his temper again "thatch don't you dare" dagger said just as those words left her lips a sword came from her hand and she pointed it at him "not today" she said thatch sat back down as the sword returned to her wrist she smirked sitting back down as well.
