First Person Point Of View:

Fiddling around with my marker showed my nervousness, I was tired, I felt weak, but most of all I was disappointed.

I was explaining, in detail, what had happened to me last night, the feeling of fear and shame crawling up my spine the further I told my story.
"San," I looked at Alina, her eyes were as soft as feathers, a real motherly stare in my opinion, "you shouldn't have let it happen and why didn't you say no to him in the first place?"

"I didn't want to say no Alina, I couldn't! You see it was...him, HIM! Of all men in the world he was the one noticing me first, the only male I could ever feel for...the one I love..."

"Nonsense child, that wasn't love, but only lust! You should have know better than too...," she gazed at my eyes, "too...," the tears were visible in them, but none the less, I was holding them back to keep my pride from shrinking even more, "...it was foolish," she ended her sentence in a rush, looking to the side.

Alina was an older woman, in her late forties, she had given birth to two wonderful daughters, but she rarely told me anything about them. "I know it was rather foolish of me," I started to explain once again, "stupid none the less, but even though it was only lust that I could show him...you see...there was this feeling...this warm feeling that I have the moment I know that he is close..."

"Love is for idiots, believe me, I was in love once and it didn't help me at all," she sighed, "I just want the best for you San, you are the only thing that keeps me from going insane here, you are the only person I can trust, if something would happen to you...I wouldn't know what I would do," her eyes were now fixed on the table, her fingers entwined with one another, "I have something for you."

I blinked, "for me?" This was something new, but I guess she just wanted to show me her gratitude, something very new to me since I rarely received anything like that.
Alina turned her chair slightly, opening a draw to her right. She swiftly opened it before grabbing something from the inside.

"I want you to have this," she placed a small looking fruit onto the oak table, the orange swirls on the thin, white skin making my mind spin with sudden realization, "I guess you know what this is," I nodded absentminded, "this devil fruit will give you a certain type of power, a magic that not even I know of, but I am sure you will know what to do with it."

"You want me to eat this," I stared at the object, my mind screaming at me to say no, to just leave it there for anybody else to grab, this fruit was far too dangerous, "but if I eat this, I will loose the ability to swim, do you want me to drown Alina?"

"Swimming will not help you in battle and you are not a very good swimmer anyway," I glared at her softly, in a mocking way, "San, this thing here is no joke, but a very tough decision," she pointed at it, my mind now a little confused, "though it will be able to help you in any kind of combat. You are stronger than any other female I know here, physically and mentally. It doesn't matter which ability you will acquire when eating this Devil Fruit, I just want you to use it properly, understood?"

"Yes, I understand Alina," she smiled, happy with my answer, "I just hope that it will be a good ability, something that I can use not only for the Marines, but also for you and myself."
She gave me a questioning glance, "I want to know the truth Alina, not only about the Organisation itself, but also about the World Government, my brother...he...," I stopped, my eyes widening slightly.

"You want to see true justice," she replied, "your brother was a very courageous person San, always on the lookout for the truth, always there when needed, but I am afraid that he changed sides, his position is no longer here."
I swallowed hard, "I hope Yunei is fine, wherever he is," Alina told me, "but one of these days you will have to fight against him, maybe even murder him and with his devil ability you will never know where he is, what he is doing and how he is able to do so."

"I know," I choked at the words, "but he is my brother, I cannot kill him, I cannot even hurt him!"

"You will have to San," she gazed at me, her orbs showing grief, "either...you fight alongside your brother with me as your ally," I immediately looked at her, utter surprise crossing my features, "or you fight alongside the Government with me as your friend, it is all up to you."

"You mean, you would follow me," I was perplex, amazed?

"Yes, I would follow you, wherever you will go," she answered truthfully, "you are after all like a daughter to me, the most precious gift I could ever receive and for that I am thankful."
Her expression changed from sweet to stern, "forget about the CP9 Agent San, forget that you have ever met him in person, he is nothing but a bad influence and even the Marines, the Agents themselves have fear and keep their distances."

"But I..."

"No," I stopped, listening to her, "no...," she repeated, "take the fruit, leave this Office and come back in the evening, I will be waiting for you here, let me know what kind of powers you possess."
I nodded, agreeing to her terms, "Good girl, now go."
I did as she told me too, leaving the room as fast as possible, but I couldn't help but feel sad about all this, she was a wonderful person, a person you could look up to, respect, but there was something hidden behind her facade, something powerful, mystical, far more then I have ever seen in a human, but what it could be was a mystery, something I would possibly never find out...

Third Person Point of View:

His eyes darted from side to side, he was here, alone.
"Perfect," he whispered under his breath, the long, black, trench-coat swirling behind him as he moved. His speed, the ability to almost glide from one place to another, it was a pleasant feeling, a feeling he would miss if he would ever loose the ability to walk.

It was midday, none of the Agents were in their Headquarters, none that could mean any danger for him, this was all too easy, "I hadn't figured that they would be so incompetent and lazy, I guess that is just my luck."
His chuckle was throaty, almost shallow, his eyes a deep, bloody ruby colour which were now carefully observing the current surroundings, "now...for 'it'."
He jumped up, grabbing the wooden bench above him, flipping his entire body upwards before landing on its surface. His grin widened at this and he began to jump from wall to wall, managing to keep his entire body parts in the darkness of the hall's shadows.

"Now for the hard part," his speed was quite remarkable for a male his age, he was about 23 in years and was hoping to turn 24 in March, but as soon as he had passed the main doors his thoughts quickly turned the other way, wailing in sheer shock.

"You have come rather far, respect," the only other person in the corridor was well hidden himself, the black suit helping him to be literally invisible, "but I am sorry to say that your little visit will end right here."

The calmness of the voice, the coldness, it was too easy to see who this person was, "you are one of those Cipher Pol Top Agents, aren't you," he asked the male before him?

"Yes," was the simple answer he received a second later, "and you are one of those pesky Rebellions, correct?"

"Why yes, I am one of them," his grin faded, "what do you want?"

"The question is; what are you here for Rebel?"

"That is none of your business; get the hell out of my way!"

"I cannot do that," the man stepped forth, the light now showing off some of his features, "you will have to fight me to pass by."

"My pleasure long nose," the young adult piped, "I hope you are ready for me, because I will give it my all!"

"I expected nothing less," Kaku stated drawing his swords, "I am one of the Seven Cipher Pol Nine Agents and a Master at swords, you will have to come up with far more power if you really want to defeat me."

"Blah, blah," the black haired male giggled darkly, "you have a very big mouth, it really surprises me that you can be so cocky after your former defeat a year ago," Kaku didn't budge or quiver, "fine, have it your way go-post head, I will be sure to make your life as much hell as possible."

"Big words for such a young Lad," Kaku replied unfazed.

"I am not a young Lad, I am 23, OKAY, I might be small, but HEY, I cannot help that!!"
The outburst of the young man was ignored, "humpf," his eyes began to blaze with fury, "ignorant little swine, just wait," he dashed forth, drawing his own weapon.

"A scythe, fitting to the likes of you," Kaku mumbled absentminded, a smile appearing on his face as both weapons clashed with each other, "I must say that you are quite formidable in this form, but I doubt you will have any chance when I show you my true abilities."

"Hold your mouth and battle," the rebel drew back a little before striking forth again, he was now greeted by two swords and one smiling Agent, "how can you smile in such a situation, gee, get yourself a psychologist and get your head seen too you sick, twisted bastard!"

"Now, now, that is not a very nice thing to say," Kaku laughed, "We want this battle to be fun don't we?"

"Fun," the young man flipped away from the Agent, landing on his two feet without any harm, "you call a battle that might cost one of us our life, fun, like in, good?"

"Precisely."

"What kind of training did the World Government go through with you, what kind of evil, disturbing, sick making tactic did they use to make you become so blood thirsty?"

"I am sorry, but I cannot follow your words," Kaku flung himself forwards, slashing at the rebels throat. The dark coat of the young adult flew upwards as he evaded the incoming battle stunt, the scythe moving up towards the sky before it came barging down towards the Agent's head.
"You are far more agile then I thought, bravo."

"Shut up you incompetent fool and fight!"
Kaku used Soru, evading the attack with ease, "darn, he is fast," the male spun around, ducking before another swipe of metal could tear his head off his shoulders, "Light Beat," a blast of white, blinding light went through a few corridors, Kaku holding his eyes in sheer agony, "as you can see, my Leader is not the only one who has eaten a Devil Fruit, most of the recruits have as well," the male lunged at Kaku, trying to cut him into two pieces.

"And what use does this devil fruit have except this," the CP9 Agent questioned him, avoiding another assault of the attacker with ease?

"Actually this attack technique should blind my foe, but I guess your ears are far more sensitive than I thought they were."

"We are certainly underestimating one another, aren't we," Kaku asked the rebel before flexing his thigh muscles?

"We sure are."
A second later both swords were entangled in the large scythe, the black metal from the sharp object in the rebels hands glistering with glee, "darn," the Agent he was fighting against was neither a pushover, not a real threat at the moment, but a pain in the ass!
"Why don't you just go away and go back to your prison, I heard they are building a new Enies Lobby just for the eight of you."

Kaku could hear the strain in the males voice and he was not even giving it his all, "I am looking forward to that day, but until then you will do."
The young adult snorted before flipping over the Agent's head and landing safely behind him, "neat trick."
Kaku opened his eyes, focusing. He was able to see a little of the area, but still only the silhouettes. His legs quickly carried him away from the whistling sound and he could hear another loud crack coming from the floor bellow. "It will not help you to tare the building apart," Kaku stated.

"It will not help you to evade all the time," the two continued on, evading, slashing, jumping, in the end the rebel had enough, "gee, what are you, some kind of Adonis, can't you keep still once?"
A sarcastic laugh was his answer, "great," he mumbled, "just wonderful," he wanted to leap forth, but he stopped in his actions, "...voices...," Kaku looked up, a bit surprised, "we will end this later," and with another flash of bright light the rebel was gone.

"Kaku, what was that," the squared-nose adult turned around, making out a few proportions?

"Nothing Jyabura," he confirmed, "nothing to worry about, only another toy to play with," his comrade smirked.

First Person Point of View:

I looked at the fruit.
Was it worth eating it?
What kind of powers did it inherit?
I sighed; this was going to be a tough decision.
"Well, I could eat it and become something much more powerful, or I could just leave it and throw it away," the latter was more to my taste, but a devil fruit was hard to come by at, what did Alina do to get this thing in the first place?

"I guess...it couldn't really hurt to try," I gulped, reaching out for the strawberry like fruit. I held it in my palm for a short while before closing my eyes and taking a huge bite from it.
"Hm...I taste nothing...," a bit disappointed I pushed the entire fruit into my mouth, since it wasn't that big it was easy to do.
I chewed a little bit, trying to taste at least something...which I did a minute or so later.

"Wow, grouse," I fought the feeling that was slowly evaporating from my stomach and throat, the feeling to throw up absolutely everything I had in my stomach was overwhelming.
I coughed, swallowing the entire fruit and fighting with the disgusting taste. A few seconds later the bitter, sour and awful taste of manure left my mouth, being replaced by a rather unwelcome feeling.

"Strange...I fell...rather cold," I started to shake uncontrollably, the coldness submerging and instead a heat of unbelievable passion exploding in the pit of my stomach.
It was as if my entire torso was about to burn down, but if that wasn't enough, my veins, my heart, they were all pulsing as if I was about to have a heart attack.

"It hurts," was the only thing I managed to spit out in-between clenched teeth, the pain was indescribable at some point, but sometimes I could identify it.
Sometimes it was as if small, creepy animals had started to tare me up alive, eating at my flesh and drinking from my blood.

My quivering body was slowly gliding off the chair, I was soon on my hands and knees, pleading for the pain to just go away...which it did, it left me breathing hard, my lungs were longing for air, "I am...going to...sue Alina...for this," I gasped with every breath I took!
I didn't feel different anymore, I felt normal again, as if nothing had happened nothing big that is.
"Great," I rolled my eyes, sarcasm ringing in my voice, "so much suffering for nothing!"

I got up looking towards my bookshelf, "it wouldn't be a bad idea, I haven't read for quite a while," I staggered a little before walking towards it, my eyes scanning the titles before it settled on one superior master piece. "The Secret of the Wind, a good book with a nice title," I laughed, even though there was nothing to laugh about.
Somehow I noticed that my mind, my entire way of thinking had changed a little, "that is peculiar, what did I do to earn that? Was it the devil fruit after all? Did Alina want to change my mood, my mind? GAH!"

It was rather frustrating, even though my mind was now set a little different there was still this weird feeling in the pit of my stomach, was somebody watching me?
I turned around, nobody was there, "is...there somebody here," I asked, a bit unsure?
I heard nothing, but as soon as I turned around my senses went to overdrive, I could feel somebody breathing.
"That is strange,"I thought, but as soon as I had turned around once again I saw why my body was tensing up, "who on earth are you?!"

The man wasn't as tall as Kaku and surely not as handsome, but his piercing, cold eyes were enough to tell me that he surely was a soldier, "I heard that you and the CP9 Agent had quite the fling yesterday night," he spoke.

"And...what makes you think that," you questioned him?

"Oh, wouldn't you like to know," he asked me, his grin showing his pearly white teeth, "how about it, want to have fun tonight, I could give you the ride of your life?"

"Not really," I answered truthfully, stepping back a little to have more room to retaliate if needed.

"Really, now isn't that a shame, the bitch has no interest in me, maybe you prefer to fuck a high class soldier instead, sadly I am none, so deal with it," he lunged forward, me evading.
I didn't know from whom he had heard this from, but I was sure to tare out the person's limbs as soon as I got near him or her!
The Agent's tactics weren't the best either, the only thing he achieved through this cycle was me evading and him missing, "keep still bitch!"

"The hell I will," I spat at him, "what makes you think I bed every person in this god darn area?!"
He didn't answer to that, but tried a lame assault none the less, "go away you sick freak," my hand stretched out, my palm opened and was pushed into his face, the energy that suddenly submerged through my body was not comforting, but disturbing, what was I about to do?

I soon had my answer.
Light was gathering in my palm, wind was slowly cycling around us and I let loose a blast of pure white energy right into the weirdoes face.
His screams were muffled, but there, I could see nothing more than his body disintegrating into thin air, the small bits and pieces that shone as he slowly evaporated in the air was enough to make my heart race faster and for my voice to scream bloody murder...

*****

I dashed through the corridors, evading Marines, Agents and other people who managed to get into my way. My mind was racing further; I had just killed someone with...something. I MURDERED a person I hardly knew! Sure, he had said some pretty nasty things, for heaven's sake he was probably a rapist in the middle of our court, but he didn't deserve death!
I skidded to a halt before Alina's Office, barging in without knocking at her door, "ALINA!"

The ebony hair of Alina was pulled back into a high ponytail now, her eyes gazing at me as if in trance, "speak," she told me, "but please shut the door behind you."
I did as told, slowly making my way towards her and sitting down. "You seem to be in a state of shock San, what happened?"

"I just...I just...," I breathed in and out, "I just killed someone Alina, I...I murdered like a common thief!"

"Who did you kill San?"

"An Agent, one of those from the Agency on the other end of the hall, the white flag on his shoulder was coloured green...Alina...I didn't mean too...," I was silenced.

"I sent him to you," she stated.

"WHAT!?"

"You heard me, he was a fool anyway, said he would harm you in no way, I knew he would try a move on you, he did didn't he," I nodded, very surprised, "right, now tell me San, what actually happened to you after you ate the Devil Fruit?"
I explained what happened, but most of my words were confusing, had no meaning behind them, they were just some sort of help while my emotional state balanced itself out, "interesting," Alina stated, "a white blast from your palm, I am sure this will only be the start of your new powers developing."

I blinked before speaking, "does that mean you..."

"Yes, I know what kind of fruit you ate San, now I do," I stared at her, amazed and alarmed at the same time, "you ate a fruit that doubled your emotional trance, one that can make your mind a weapon of its own, it can make you either insane or strengthen you," she pulled me closer with one hand until I was facing her, "San, having psychic abilities is not easy, but don't worry I will train you as good as possible and in the end, one of these days, you will be free..."

My mouth dropped, this word, free..., this one little word I had been chasing before I met Kaku, this one word...could change it all...
