Kira noticed the Marines at Enies Lobby thinking if they were to escape, they would have to leave by force. Kira looked up and noticed the Straw Hat crew on top of the opposite building as they began their attack to save Nico Robin, this would be a perfect distraction for her, Lula and Fallon to make their getaway. Kira was still shaken up over what she witnessed. She slowly began to despise everything that the Marines were for. 

Kira looked back at her crew members with a plan in mind. 

"This is our chance," Kira began, "if we can make our way through the barrage of Marines and head back to Water 7, we should be able to get out unscathed."

"But how can we if we're in our attire as Vice Admirals," Lula asked, "if we turn our back towards them then-"

"FUCK THE MARINES," Kira yelled.

Fallon and Lula looked at Kira with a shock expression. They were shocked by how Kira reacted to the danger of what she and Lula would face if they went against the Marines. Kira didn't care in anyway if she would die betraying them but if this was one way of her to become a pirate. 

"I don't care if I die for betraying the Marines," Kira growled, "I could care less if I would be the most wanted pirate in the world. If this is what it means for justice to treat others like filth, I WON'T STAND FOR THIS!!!"

Fallon and Lula were silent. Kira began to shed tears of anger. 

"This was what my father told me when I was child," Kira began, "he told me about the horrors he witnessed from the Marines. How they killed innocent lives without mercy...it's...it's...inhumane!"

"So, what's the plan Captain" Fallon asked.

Kira looked to Fallon and Lula with serious neon blue eyes but with a confident smile on her face, "If we're gonna live our lives as pirates, might as well raise hell."

Kira got up sighing to herself out of frustration knowing of what the cost of going against the Marines would result in but at this point, she didn't care anymore. Then she looked up a noticed a group of Marine ships heading to Enies Lobby. 

This couldn't be, Kira thought, did Spandam use the Buster Call?

"Motherfucker," Kira growled.

"What's wrong milady," Lula asked.

Lula and Fallon looked in the direction that Kira was looking at and noticed the group of Marine ships arriving to Enies Lobby. Shots of fire decorated the sky as they landed in the city, ablaze with hell fire. The horrors of what they witnessed in front of their eyes was too much for them to unsee. Lula began to shed tears seeing this. Fallon began to think of Lucci's warning as she began to have a panic attack. This was too much to her, this was what caused her to leave the World Government behind. Fallon got up with tears streaming down her face with a look of determination on her face.

"Kira's right," Fallon began, "we need to leave this place and let hell loose."

"Even if it means we would be considered enemies to the World Government, it doesn't matter anymore," Kira added.

Lula looked down at the ground then at her hands. Could she really turn away from the Marines and truly start her path in becoming a pirate? Lula needed to prove herself that she was strong enough to protect her crew and lay down her life for her captain. Lula clenched her fists then got up with a look of determination on her face. 

"What are we waiting for," Lula spoke, "let's show them how merciless we are."

"Now we're talking," Kira smirked, "let's move out!"
