3rd pov
Kidd had planned something and (y/n) sensed it immediately.
The sound of crunching snow underneath their feet was the only sound available to lessen the tense surroundings.
They soon arrived at a bar, it was empty besides the bartender.
It would have been normal since it's midday, bars would most likely be full by dawn.
Still, the feeling of being followed lingered her senses as law fumbled in his head about how possible that they could be followed.
They sat down by the middle of the bar, the bartender seemed... Attentive.
Considering there's two different crews here, but his attentiveness wasn't on that, it was as if he was waiting for a specific command, a yell, maybe even a silent glance.
(y/n) noticed this immediately, the look that specific bartender gave her wasn't one she always encountered.
"so, what do you want from us?" law started.
The air was so tense you can cut it with a knife.
"since you like getting straight to the point" kidd huffs, "give me one of your crewmates."
"no" law immediately retorded.
He's not a bastard to do such a thing, nor is he a traitor against his own crew.
And besides, he knew who kidd was after.
(y/n).
Why go after her? No one exactly knows...
Maybe kidd was enthralled by the amount of knowledge she had back when she was 'saving' his first mate.
Or maybe he knew her power and strenght.
Like I anyone could've guessed millions of questions would be considerable, but none actually exact.
"why not?" kidd asks, now getting mad.
"because it's my crew. You have own. I have mine, leave them. Leave my crew alone" law said.
If the air wasn't this tense, it went even more tense.
"don't make this difficult for me." kidd growled.
"you're living your fantasy. What do you actually want from us?" law grumbled.
"I meant what I said. Just give me the damn girl!" kidd finally admitted and stood up in anger.
"no" law simply said, "and it's like she wants to as well" law turned to (y/n) who shook her head silently.
"see?"
"I know you'd say that" kidd grunted before feeling the walls closing in and in a blink of an eye.
Law was wrestled to the floor along with the others but (y/n) was grabbed by the arm tightly.
"you're coming with me" kidd growled.
(y/n) tried to pry herself only to get punched by the gut by none other than the captain.
Wind immediately got out from her chest, causing her knees to buckle and her body felt weak.
"oi. What do you think you're doing to my cousin?" someone said behind kidd as a dark shadow showed behind him.
A tall woman, and a strong one at that, just by the aura.
The woman punched kidd making him let go of (y/n).
"...? Lucci?" she let's out
"behind me. Now." the woman ordered in which (y/n) gladly did so.
"now... Let. them. go. Or else"
......
"everyone, this is my distant cousin, Lucci" (y/n) introduced.
The woman, probably 6'7 or 6'8, has dark blue hair cascading down her back to her waist, a white mask over her face that has black ovals for eyes.
They also had light blue sweater, despite the coldness of the island.
This person is obsessed with blue.
"rob Lucci?!"
"no... No... I'm thunderie Lucci, I'm... 25 years old... I'm the caretaker of this island" they sighed.
"why do you pause so much?" klione asks.
"it's just... I don't... Normally speak... But when I do... It's just... This" they explained.
"they use they/them pronouns, they're non-binary" (y/n) explains.
"why did you say distant cousin?"
"well.... They were disowned by their family, and that family is now cut away from the Farcia name... Everyone is looking for you, Lucci-San..." (y/n) said
"I know... But... I couldn't exactly bother them... Dammit... Where's Jaize when I need her... Fuckk...." Lucci groaned.
"who's that?" law then asks.
"my... Girlfriend... I'm not ashamed that she is... It's just... Quite... Embarrassing... On her part... Probably" Lucci shrugs
"Lucci dear~!" someone yelled happily as the sounds of crunching snow slowly regains its full sound and a red head jumping into their arms, in which they gladly accepted
"(y/n)! There you are!" she hummed
"everyone, this is jaize. She's their girlfriend"
"hello everyone!" she says wihh a polite bow.
Jaize had long hair, it reached the back of her knees, it was tied at the end with a blue bow and also had a white mask, similar to Lucci, but hers had a small cute smile.
She also wore something warm and appropriate compared it to her partner who can't feel cold.
"who are they (y/n)?" Jaize asks.
"they're my crew mates... Lucci-San, thank you again for your saving earlier... That guy was insane" (y/n) sighs
"it's quite fine... Are you alright though? I saw him grab your arm tightly...." (y/n) hums lightly before looking at her arm.
"oh, this? It'll be fine" (y/n) said
"I'm a medic, let me see" jaize insisted as she placed a hand on her still covered arm
"I see... Or has bruised"
"how did you...?" law can't even process what jaize just did
"I can. I just can" jaize huffed
"that's my girl!!" Lucci clapped.
"haha, small victory for you eh? Asshole. Go back home, change into something warm. Now" jaize ordered
"I'm not actually cold if you know that" Lucci hummed
"you may not be cold but you will catch a cold, now go. (y/n), if you have time, you know where we live, let's have some tea" jaize said while pushing Lucci back to the island.
Lucci protested that she isn't cold, jaize said they need to wear a scarf at least.
Lucci... They're quite troublesome, what a couple
"that woman... They're your distant cousin? How come I never saw them in any family picture?" law asks (y/n).
"Lucci-San had been cut off by the time I was born, so that probably explains why" (y/n) answered.
"aren't they 25? You're 22" shachi says.
"well, actually... They are... 25 thousand years old, when I was young, presumably, when Lucci-San turned 18, they were out." (y/n) explains.
"no wonder... And damn... Did you see that height?" ikkaku said.
"I know right? It's abnormally tall for them, but, they inherited the family's tall genes while I don't have it" (y/n) huffed.
"you're 6'2" law says
"but they're 6'7 or 8! Taller than dad!" (y/n) scoffed.
"heh, say... I want to know more about the person, may I?" law asks.
"why though?"
"as a caretaker of this island, how did they achieve it?"
"no one knows..."
