Law had been on Joras boat for two years. She had been teaching him how to fight.

Law made Jora fall on her butt.
"Wow, you're a quick learner." She explained as she got up. But suddenly she started coughing.
"Jora-san! Are you okay?" Law ran to her side.
"Yeah, I'm fine."
She looked at her hand and was shocked.
>Blood? What's going on?<
Law wasn't able see the blood, so she wiped it off on the floor.
"Let's take a break."

A little later Jora went to see a doctor.

*at the doctors office*
Jora broke down.
"Is there nothing I can do?" she asked with tears in her eyes.
The doctor shook his head. "I'm sorry miss. It's progressed to far."
"How long do I have?"
"About a year."
She wiped away her tears. It was hard to accept, but she knew she had to be strong. She thanked the man and went back to her boat.

When she came back Law was waiting for her.
"Jora-san?" Law immediately noticed, something was wrong. "What did the doctor say?"
"Please stay calm. This might be a bit much. The doctor said I have a rare lung disease witch has already progressed too far to be treated. I...I have about a year to live."
Law looked shocked.
"I'm sorry..."
"What do you mean, 'I'm sorry'? You're not going to die! I won't let you die!"
"Law, stop. It can't be helped."
"Yes it can! I know how to save you! It would kill me though..."
"What? It would kill you?!"
"Yeah but I don't care!"
In that moment Jora snapped and slapped him in the face.
"NEVR SAY THAT EVER AGAIN !"
Law just stood there, holding his red cheek.
"Don't say such stupid things..."
She kneeled down and huged him. Law huged her back. Tears started running down her face.
