Captive special - STAMPEDE [Kid x reader]

7

Much to your dismay, his expression grew even more concerned and he stared at you in silence.

«Hey, what's that face supposed to mean?!»

«No, it's just... you won't put yourself into trouble when master Kid is not around, will you?»

«I...!» you grimaced before shaking your head with a scoff «I'll shoot the guys coming at us, that's it! What could possibly go wrong?»

He watched you stomping down the deck with sad eyes.

«Many, many things.»

The moment Donald Moderate started yelling into his microphone announcing the start of the race, things got more chaotic.

The number of hyped pirates around charged the air with electricity and all the ships gained speed.

Kid had been glued to the bow since you came back with Killer and Wire in the morning, the excitement evident in his devilish grin and impatient movements.

You didn't think he would come talking to you or even look at you anymore for the rest of the day.

You were proven wrong.

«Oi, birdie! What's with that dumb outfit?»

«Eh?»

You were currently sitting on the lower deck, busy cleaning your rifle and selecting the bullets for the imminent battle when his huge shadow fell over you.

You looked up at him and blinked in surprise before glancing at your black jumpsuit.

«What are you talking about?»

«Where's the cors–»

His disappointed frown fell slightly when you stood up. His amber eyes dropped on your cleavage and his mouth twitched.

You cocked an eyebrow and placed your free hand on your hip.

«The corset? I'm not wearing that in battle. This is much more comfortable.» you gave him a few seconds to reply, but when his eyes didn't move from your chest you smirked «Besides, you don't really seem to mind.»

«Tch!»

His glare darted back to your face and he scoffed.

«Whatever, woman. Be sure not to come in our way during the race!»

With that, he brusquely turned and made his way back towards the front.

Your brows furrowed.

«What's his problem now?»

«Don't mind that, devil-girl.»

The Mohican walked over with his rickety grin and an old shotgun in his hands.

«I'm pretty sure that would translate into "be safe".»

You shot him a dubious look before returning to your new bullets.

«If you say so, Mohican.»

But he didn't miss the little smile that crept on your lips for the rest of your work.

The contest caught fire in what seemed a few seconds.

First, dozens of ships were sliding in the stream of sea that cut through the land, then a Knock Up Stream shot an entire island in the sky.

As you do.

Obviously, Kid was the first captain to lead his ship right into the havoc, riding the vertical current through barriers of raging seawater.
