Epilogue

�The Devil�s Light has returned after having vanished for
the length of two months. Monkey D. Luffy was said to have been in pursuit of
the small time criminal Dabara, who is known for his thievery in many cases
with his pirate crew �The Thieves of Bandon�, Bandon being their pirate
captain. However, he and his crew suddenly disappeared. Speculations had been
that Monkey D. Luffy and his crew had been captured and perhaps killed by the
pirate crew in question. However, just two days ago, Monkey �The Devil�s Light�
Luffy, and his crew reappeared in the middle of Keibi Island,
where one of the many large marine bases is located. With him was the
illustrious Dabara himself, unrestrained. There are many speculations and
questions about the situation as well as their whereabouts for the past two
months��

L stood in place rigidly, just listening as his Jii-chan
read the article aloud to him, with his hands behind his back. Their
disappearance as well as reappearance had made the headlines.

�Should I go on?�

�No, sir��

�Start explaining boy�Where the hell have you been for the
last two months, and why the hell isn�t that criminal in a cell right now?!�

Sighing heavily as he closed his eyes, L then looked up at
his Jii-chan and began to explain every detail of the past two months. Garp
stared at him for a long while with his brow raised before finally sighing and
closing his eyes after his explanation.

�I see�� He finally said after awhile. Then he suddenly shot
his eyes open and lunged for L, pulling him up by the collar of his uniform.

�Gah!� L exclaimed as he grabbed at
his grandfather�s hands.

�You trying to make a fool of me, boy?!�

�N-No, sir! It�s the truth! I
promise!�

Garp stared up at him for a long while as his grandson�s
feet dangled a few feet above the ground. Then he slowly lowered him to the
ground. �You honestly think they will let that boy stay in your crew? He�s a
criminal with a bounty on his head.�

�It�s not a very big one��

�It�s thirty four million beli!!� Garp yelled in L�s face,
not once letting go of his collar.

�It doesn�t matter�I�ll fight my claim if I have to. I made
her a promise��

Scoffing, Garp looked away then. �The
other woman like the orange haired one?�

�She�s not �the orange haired one��She�s my fianc�Her name is Nami.� L reminded him with an upset
frown.

�You can fight it all you like, but it�s not going to be
easy��

�He cooperated at the end, and even saved her life�I may not
have the proof with me, but I�m willing to bet my rank on him��

Garp turned to him with a scowl. �Bet your rank?! On another Devil Child?!�

�Being a Devil Child doesn�t matter!�

Snorting, Garp turned slightly away from him. �I know
that�However, they won�t see it that
way, Luffy��

�It doesn�t matter�I�ve done a lot for them�They can afford
to grant me this one wish��

�You�re a Devil Child too Luffy�Or have you forgotten?�

�Never�� L replied as he furrowed his brows seriously. �But
I�m The Devil�s Light�right?�

Scoffing again, he released L with a bit of a shove, and
then turned his back on him. Grunting, L righted himself, straightening out his
clothes.

�Some may see you as The Devil�s Light, Luffy�but you�re
still a Devil Child�and so is he��

�Then maybe you can put a word in��

Snorting again, he turned to look at him. �And risk my rank
as well?�

L stared into his eyes intently, his expression serious. �I�ve
made it this far�I know I can do this�I�m the first Devil Child to make captain
at this age�I think I can convince them to give me custody of him��

Staring at him just as intently, Garp finally snorted a
third time as he turned his back on him again. �Do as you like��

Bowing, L then turned to leave before stopping. �Also�I�m
going to be getting married in two days. That�s how long it will take for the
license to go through�We�re not waiting on you any longer�If you�re going to be
there�then be there�� He said before opening the door and leaving the office.

Sighing, Garp snorted again as he stared out of his window.
Then a grin broke out onto his face. �That�s my boy��

Walking down the hall, L kept his head lowered in thought.
The Devil�s Light�That name had been bestowed upon him by the tabloids, and
from then on, it kind of stuck. Some saw him as the light for all Devil
Children�as hope. Some even saw him as a great hero. He did hope that one day
he may be able to change the views of his world as far as how they see the
Devil Children. They may be different from everyone else, but it didn�t mean that
they were evil or bad. Some may have turned out that way, but you first create
the monster and then persecute it�Most of them went bad only because of what
may have been done to them since they had been born differently.

It was his dream to make a difference, to change the world,
to make them see that they could do good things. If he could convince the World
Government to give him custody of Nate, he may be able to show this further. He
just had to convince them that Nate wasn�t a bad person, only misguided. He had
made the promise that he�d not turn Nate in, but the truth was, it wasn�t up to
him, but he would try his hardest to keep that promise.

His crew, as well as Nate looked up when he exited the
building. �How�d it go�?� N asked as she frowned at his expression.

�It went pretty well, considering��

�And about Nate?� She asked.

Nate looked from N to L with a frown. Sighing, L looked
down. �It won�t be easy, but I will try my hardest to convince them to let him
stay in my custody.�

�You�re risking a lot by doing this for me. Are you sure
about this?� Nate asked with his frown deepening.

�Aa, I�m sure. She trusted you greatly and had been willing
to fight for you, so I am willing to do the same.�

Blinking at him in astonishment, Nate gaped at him before
smiling and nodding. �Thank you.�

�What do we do now?� Z asked as he looked at L seriously.

�Hmm�well, for now�I guess we go back to the ship�I�m sure I
will be called to present my case in a few days time�� He said as he turned
towards the harbor. After they�d disappeared, their ship had been brought here.

xxxx

Throwing the door open, L laughed
as he carried his new bride into the suite they�d checked out. Also laughing, N
held onto him tightly before looking into the room. �Wow, it�s really pretty��
She said breathlessly as she looked around.

�Ooo�� L exclaimed as he also
looked around the room. �Bed�s nice and big��

N turned to him with hooded eyes and a sly smile. �The bed
the only thing you noticed?�

�Nope, I noticed there�s a pretty big bathtub in that
bathroom too�� He said as he looked over at the bathroom.

Keeping her sly smile, she then ran a finger down his chest.
�Which do you want to try first?�

He looked back down at her before grinning. Walking forward,
he then tossed her onto the bed. With a bit of a squeal, N bounced on the bed,
the comforter fluffing all around her, before laughing as he crawled in after
her. He crawled in slowly, a lucid smiling playing on his lips. Biting her lip
with a smile, she just watched his slow approach. Finally making it to her, he
loomed over her as he pressed her shoulders firmly down into the bed as he
gazed into her eyes. However, soon they shifted down, really starting to notice
his wife�s body as well.

�Mmm, damn ��

Blushing faintly, she smiled wider up at him. �Like what you
see?�

�I will as soon as I get that dress off you.� He said,
reaching up to turn her onto her stomach, and then he began to undo the buttons
and zippers slowly.

Latching onto her bottom lip again, she couldn�t help but to
smile wider as she allowed him to remove her dress.

He moaned softly at the sight of her corset before he
quickened, wanting to see the rest of her. "Damn, girl, you look so
good."

Biting down harder, her smile turned into a grin as her
cheeks flushed harder. "You really think so?"

"Hell yes." Flushing, he
reached down, and squeezed her ass cheeks through her lacey under things when
the dress was a crumpled pile on the floor behind them. "Ooh, I can't wait
to fill you up."

Gasping in some surprise from being squeezed, her entire
face flushed while her eyes widened as she felt her arousal growing. "Oh ...!"

Groaning, he cupped her womanhood from the front, and said
into her ear, "You want that, don't you? Slut, you want my fat cock
cramming your pussy."

Blinking in shock, she widened her eyes a little more as she
turned towards him, but not looking at him. "What?"

He blinked before his cheeks tinged a bit pink realizing
what he was saying. "Ah ... I mean, Nami."

She turned over to look at him with a quirked brow. She
stared at him for a long while before smiling. "Oh I see ..." Then
she sat up, leaning towards him with her arms squeezing her breasts tightly
together. They pushed against her bra, threatening to spill out. "You like
that, do you?"

His eyes widened before he started to grin roguishly.
"Oh, baby, fuck yeah, I do." He said as he grabbed the back of her
thighs, spreading her legs, and then settled in between them.

Gasping in some surprise, she then grinned back with a
giggle as she wrapped her arms around him, feeling even more aroused. Then she
bit her lower lip again as she leaned up to his ear. "Keep talking dirty
to me, daddy ..." She whispered as she licked his ear.

Groaning, he shoved her onto her
back, and kissed her hungrily, sucking and biting at her lips and tongue. He
squeezed the back of her thighs while grinding up against her through all the
cloth between her core and his growing member.

Moaning against his lips, she kissed him back with her
growing need as she rubbed back against him. She had dreamed of this moment for
a really long time. She wanted to feel him in her so bad that it hurt.
"Luffy ..."

"Ooh, yes, you want me to break your tight cunt in, huh?"

His mouth went down her neck, sucking and chewing down to
her busty bosom before sinking his teeth into the top of her breast.

"Aah!" She cried out with a moan as she arched
against him and leaned her head back. "Yes, please ..."

Grinning wider, he yanked down her corset, watching her
breasts jiggle with a moan. "Maybe, I should fuck those pretty titties first."

Flushing brightly, she looked up at
him with desire oozing from her eyes. "Ooh, Luffy ..." She cooed
breathlessly. His words were succeeding in turning her on more and more.

His breath came in a bit shallower, leaning over her to
press their foreheads together, "Then I'll fill your pussy with so much cum
..."

Groaning, she then began to roam her hands up his arms that
were still clothed as she stared into his eyes. She then yanked on his suit
jacket. "Luffy, please ... Take them off. I want to feel you ..."

Moaning, he reached back to toss off his jacket, and
loosened his little bowtie before he pulled at his undershirt. "You're
gonna be so tight, bitch ..."

She bit her lip again as she smiled wide up at him.
"Then I guess that means you'll fit nice and snug in me. Hurry up and get
them off so I can see this fat cock you spoke of."

Chuckling low in his throat, he finally tossed his shirt
back before his eyes darkened, pushing her back down. "You want to see it
up close, slut? Then I can shove it in your cheeks."

"Mmm ..." She moaned as her eyes hooded. "I'd
love to get a taste ..." She whispered with heated cheeks as her lips
parted for him.

Grinning, he shifted so that he was sitting above her head,
and he pulled up on her legs so that she was up on her head, "Well, get 'em down. I'll eat your pussy."

Laughing low in her throat, she reached up and began to
unbutton and unzip his pants. Then she tried her best to get them down, despite
her awkward position. He bent down to lick at her pussy through her panties,
and then bit at them, pulling them aside to lap at her hot lips. "Uhm."

"Aah!" She cried in complete surprise and
shuddered hard. With shaky hands, she pulled his pants down as far as she could
get it, gaping at his engorged member. "Oh...!" She exclaimed with a
deep flush of her cheeks before biting her lips. Reaching out, she grabbed a
hold of it, trying to concentrate, considering the great amount of pleasure she
was receiving. Then she leaned her head back, taking it into her mouth.
"Mmm...!"

Grunting, L almost bit down on her before moaning and
pulling her lacy panties back further to slide his tongue into her wet and warm
caverns. Clamping her mouth over him, she then began to suck on him, moving him
in and out of her mouth. Both moaned against the other at the pleasure each was
causing each other.

�Mmm �!�

�Ngh � That�s right, slut! Suck
it! Suck it!�

Crying out over him, she grabbed a hold of his base, that
didn�t fit into her mouth, and began to pump it in the same pace as she sucked.
�Hmm!�

�I�ll shoot a load right into your hot mouth!�

Moaning loudly to his words in between what he did to her,
she thought she would die from the extreme pleasure. She never would have
thought this vulgar speech would have sent her this far into ecstasy. She cried
in her orgasm, her juices spilling around his mouth. However, she never
released his manhood, continuing to pump and suck him. Groaning, he squeezed
her ass cheeks hard, the reverberation of her moan, sending him over the edge.
He pulled back, crying out slightly as he shot into her mouth.

�Fuck � Oh, baby, your mouth was so hot ��

Grinning, she swallowed it and then looked up at him. �Did
that feel good?�

�Fuck yeah ��

Crawling over her, he then turned, removed his pants
completely with his shoes and socks before removing hers as well as her
stockings and then her panties. Her cheeks flushed as she looked down at him as
well as being fully exposed.

�Damn �� He breathed as he roamed his eyes over her entire
nude body. �I�m gonna fuck you dry, bitch ��

This caused her to grin again as she laughed deep in her
throat. �Then let�s get started � I want your fat cock to fill me up.�

He only grinned and shook his head. �Not yet. I�ll have you
begging for it like a bitch in heat.�

�Mmm � But I already want you �� She said with a groan as
she began to run her hands down his pecs and abs.

Chuckling, he leaned down and began to lick her ear, all the
way down to her neck. Shuddering, she moaned as she ran her hands back up his
stomach and chest. �Luffy ��

�I�m gonna ride you so hard �� He whispered into her ear as
he then began to lick down her throat.

�Yes �� She said breathlessly as she closed her eyes.

�I�ll fuck you like the bitch you are � and if that doesn�t
get you off, I�ll treat you like a prison bitch, on your hands and knees �� He
said in a low voice as he looked up into her eyes with hooded ones.

Gasping, she groaned as her eyes hooded a long with his.
�Luffy, please ��

�You want me, whore?�

�Yes � Oh, Luffy, yes!� She cried
breathless as she began to pant heavily.

�You want my dick tearing into your pussy?� He asked as he
began to kiss down her chest, never removing his eyes from hers.

�Yes, please!�

�You want all of me?� He asked as he licked over her nipple
slowly.

�Nngh �! Yes!� She cried as she arched into his mouth.

He then slowly began to grin as he took her nipple into his
mouth, sucking leisurely. �Mmm �� He hummed as he pulled up with a soft pop. �You
want me to fill you up completely, baby?�

�Yes! Yes!�

Leaning down, he licked around her belly button before
slowly running his tongue all the way up the middle, in between her breasts and
up her throat. Then he looked at her with a lazy smirk. �Beg for it, bitch ��

�Oh �! Just fuck me already Luffy, you son of a bitch!� She
screamed as she grabbed his hair and pulled him up to kiss him hungrily.

Growling with a grin against her lips, he then chuckled deep
in his throat as he reached down and clutched at her hips. He pulled her to
him, thrusting his tongue into her mouth. Gasping, she groaned loudly when she
felt his manhood against her core. �Mmm �!�

He finally pressed his tip into her small opening, his eyes
rolling shut at the pleasure of the heat he could already feel. �Fuck � So
fucking hot � I can�t wait to tear you up inside with � my fat cock ��

He then began to push in with a groan. Gasping, N�s eyes
flew open wide from the slight pain. �Aah!� She cried as she clutched at the
sheets.

Pressing in slowly, he finally made it all the way up to the
hilt. Panting, N shut her eyes to the tears that threatened to spill over.
Thankfully, her having been so turned on, she was slippery enough for the pain
to not be so wrenching.

�So � So tight �Ngh �!�

�Haah �!� She breathed as she finally opened her eyes to
look up at him.

Opening his eyes as well, he looked down into hers with eyes
full of the desire he felt for her. Leaning down, he pressed his forehead onto
hers, continuing to stare down into her eyes. It was taking all of his
willpower not to move and to give her time for her pain to subside.

�L-Luffy �� She breathed as she reached up and cupped his
face. �I love you so much ��

His eyes softened as he leaned down to softly kiss her.
Reaching up, she wrapped her arms around him, pulling him further onto her.
Both inhaled sharply when her breasts pressed against his bare chest. Spreading
her legs further, she then arched into him, the pain having faded. Grunting,
L�s hips jerked in surprise from the sensation of her moving before he groaned
loudly, slowly beginning to pull out and push back in her. Moaning, she arched
her hips up further to greet him, digging her heels into the bed for support.

��Oh yeah � This feels
� so fuckin� great �� He said in a strained voice as
he began to slowly move in and out of her, just to get the feel of her.

She smiled luxuriously from the �great� feeling she was
receiving as well. �Mm � fucking being the operative word ��

His eyes seemed to glaze from her words and hood further as
he released a moan. Then he slowly grinned. �Fucking you feels great, Nami ��

She bit her smiling lip as she leaned her head back with a
throaty moan. �I�d like to hope so ��

Chuckling a bit, he then began to pick up the pace with a
moan of pleasure. �I�ll ram my cock so far up your pussy that I�ll have you
screaming ��

�Oh yes! Luffy!� She cried as she
arched into him further, further intoxicated by the faster pace. �Aah �!�

Groaning, he then began to kiss down her chest and over her
breasts, licking her nipples before sucking on one. He reached down and
clutched her hips tightly as he then picked up the pace, slamming into her
willing heat.

�Aah � Haah!� She cried as she clutched at his hair, leaning
her head back further. She panted loudly from the fast pace, wrapping her legs
around his waist as she moaned and cried out from the exquisite pleasure.

�Aah, fuck yeah!� He exclaimed as he also began to pant heavily,
sweat forming onto his body.

�Luffy! Yes! Oh, yes!� She screamed as she arched her hips
to meet his hard thrusts. �Aah!� She screamed in ecstasy as her orgasm exploded
luxuriously.

Grunting, he slammed into her a few more times before
releasing his seed into her wet core this time. �Ngh
� Mmm �!�

Panting, she relaxed as she stared up at the ceiling with
glazed eyes, still feeling her desire. Then she slowly lowered her head to look
at him. He was also panting heavily as he rested between her breasts. He looked
up at her and slowly grinned. She smiled in return as she softly combed her
fingers through his damp hair. She had told Nami that their first time was
supposed to be beautiful. This had been far from beautiful, but felt great! Who needed beautiful when she had
the man she loved in her arms and was quite, more than quite, pleased with
their first coupling?

His grin turned more mischievous as he leaned up a bit more.
�I want to be your stallion, baby. Get on top and ride me ��

Giggling deep in her throat, she reached out a hand, in
which he took and pulled her into a sitting position as he moved off from her.
She placed her palms on his chest, pushing him down into the bed. �I�m gonna
ride you hard � Think you can handle it, my stallion?�

�Aah, fuck yea, bitch � I can handle any rough ride �� He
said before pulling her down to him. Then he grinned as he whispered into her
ear, �Ride me ��

Sighing and shuddering pleasurably, she then sat up with
rosy, parted lips as her desire grew further. �Mm, with pleasure � my stallion
�� She purred as she sat up a bit and then lowered herself onto his still hard
manhood.

�Mm � That�s right, you whore � Ride me ��

Moaning and closing her eyes from how wonderful he felt
inside of her, she then began to move up and down over him slowly at first
before picking up the pace. �Aah!�

�Mm � Let�s see those pretty titties
bounce �� He said in a husky voice as he reached up to clutch at one. Then he
began to grind his hips up into her as she moved over him, gradually picking up
the pace with a moan.

�Oh �! This feels so good!� She cried as she leaned her head
back, beginning to move over him quickly.

Keeping his eyes on her breasts, his eyes hooded heavily as
he panted. �Bounce, bitch!�

Still sensitive from her previous two orgasms, she came
quickly with a scream. �Luffy!�

�Ah �!� He exclaimed as his hips jumped up, sending his seed
into her again.

Panting heavily and extremely tired, she fell over him, both
slippery from sweat. �Mmm �� She hummed luxuriously with a smile. �Luffy � that
was wonderful � I love you so much ��

Chuckling, he wrapped his arms around her as he pulled her
off from him and to the side to lay her beside him. He kissed her forehead,
holding her close. �I love you too, Nami ��

�Luffy �?�

�Hmm �?�

�Where did you learn to talk like that �?�

� � �

Grinning as she bit her lower lip, she leaned her head back
to look up into his face. He was blinking up at the ceiling with a blush. He
shifted his eyes down to her quickly. Giggling, she sat up, leaning her breasts
against the side of his chest. �I liked it ��

�Did you �?�

�Mm �� She hummed with a nod as she began to place kisses on
his chest.

�There was this guy I was stationed with who would never
shut up � I actually used to hate it � but � when I met you � I remember
thinking � Okay, I thought about a lot of things �� He started to say with a
deeper blush.

Giggling again, she lifted her head to smile at him. �Oh?
What kind of things?�

�I just remember thinking you were the most beautiful woman
I had ever seen � When I got to know you, I thought, you were the most
beautiful person I�d ever met � but � a lot of what he told me came to mind and
� I don�t know �� He said as he shifted his eyes away from her in
embarrassment.

She leaned down and kissed him slowly. �I really liked it �
It was a really big turn on � I can see why you would want to do it �� She said
as she continued to kiss him.

Then she began to scratch just behind his ear, in which he
melted against her. �Mmm ��

�Ah, you really like this � don�t you, Kitten �?� She
whispered into the same ear.

�Mmm �� He almost purred as he nuzzled her voluptuous bosom.

She leaned up as she smiled at him. �You know � I could
really use a bath now. How about we make use of that really big tub now?�

Grinning as well, he sat up, lifting her into his arms with
ease. She squealed into laughter as she wrapped her arms around him. �I love
you!�

xxxx

�You do realize the risk of taking in this criminal under
your command. If he were to flee, it would be your job as well as the jobs of
your crew.�

�Yes, I�m well aware of that. However, I trust him and feel
he would not flee. Otherwise, he�d have done so by now. He waits in the lobby
with the others as we speak. He has already told me that he is willing to take
any sentence or punishment given to him for his crimes. I also realize that if
I lose my position, that the others would follow suit. That is their decision
to make. I would not regret my decision.�

�Then you also realize that the world is on a very fragile
line as far as their views on Devil Children � Some may see you as �The Devil�s
Light�, however, if you take another Devil Child into your crew besides
yourself, it could cause great speculation among the people.�

Sighing, L shifted his eyes downward. He had thought of
this. �Yes, I am also aware of this, sir. It may take time, but I will prove to
the world that not all Devil Children mean them harm. I do not mean anyone
harm. Nate had fought to protect someone who did not have an
ability and had even been willing to sacrifice his life for them, even
if he had not known the person all that well. I do not feel that this is
someone who means anyone harm.�

The man in front of him narrowed his eyes slightly before
leaning to the side to speak quietly to his companions. A few nodded, and a few
shook their heads as they conversed. L clenched his hands tightly together as
he held them behind his back. �Please
agree ��

After awhile, they parted and the man to the left of the
first man, who spoke, spoke up. �It�s hard to agree to this when this man had
selfishly stolen from others not but three months ago. Yet you say he�s changed
for the better in such a short time, selflessly risking his life for another.
That hardly sounds plausible.�

Grinding his teeth, L took a deep, calming breath. �I assure
it, it�s plausible and possible. I�ve spent time with him before this hearing,
and his attitude is far different then when I first met him. I did wonder
myself if it had been an act. However, with his ability, he would not need to
lie to me. He could flee and become irretrievable at any time. I honestly
believe that he wishes to continue this ascent to better himself.�

They leaned in again, speaking quietly among themselves once
again. It took all of L�s willpower not to fidget in his spot as he waited for
them to speak again. After awhile, they pulled away from one another again. �I
honestly don�t think this sentence is fair, especially for a Devil Child. He
stole from many and yet he�s only let off with such a small punishment?
Community service is hardly equitable. Others did not get off so lightly. What
makes you think this man deserves differently?�

�Being a Devil Child has no premise here ��

�Being a Devil Child has everything
to do with it!� One of the other men exclaimed.

Lifting his chin and taking a heavy breath, L clutched his
hands tighter as he clenched his jaw just as tightly. He stared just behind
them, not wanting to meet their eyes.

�You forget your place! You were only allowed here because
of your grandfather! A Devil Child, is a Devil Child!
You may have done some good, but who�s to say how long that will last?!�

Swallowing hard, he took deep shaky breaths to control his
anger. �I have no intention of changing who I am � It�s my dream to make the
world see us differently � We are no different aside from our abilities. Some
may have turned out bad, but it�s because of how we are treated � If we were
treated the same as a normal person, this problem may not be as prominent �
It�s true that some allow the power they were born with to cause them to become
power hungry and tyrants � but I can assure you not all feel this way. I will
find those who aren�t like this, and persecute those who would reflect upon us
so badly � I honestly believe that Nate is not of this crowd who reflect badly.
It�s true he may have been misguided, but he is on the right path now.�

�Would your opinion of this criminal be any different had he
not been a Devil Child as well?�

�No, no sir it would not.� He replied immediately to the man
left of the man in the middle. �Being a Devil Child �� He started before
swallowing and shaking his head. �I view no one differently � We are who we are
- people of this world � I do not view him any differently, than any man I have
in my crew. They are all important to me and irreplaceable. Nate has proven to
me that he is a good man � I only wish to allow this to blossom. I feel that he
could contribute greatly to the marines ��

All the men narrowed their eyes at him before leaning in to
converse among themselves once again. Sighing and shifting his eyes to the
ground below him, L drooped only slightly as he closed his eyes to calm
himself. He was becoming worried that this would not turn out as well as he�d
first hoped. It seemed they�ve already had it in their minds to disagree and
sentence Nate to prison time. If it were Luffy, he�d have punched the man and
have said, to hell with it and be damned of the consequence. However, he,
himself, did not have that luxury.

In all honesty, he was surprised they�d even allowed him to
come before them in a hearing. However, he had a feeling that there was a
possibility that someone somewhere was trying to be as fair as possibly. He
only hoped he could shine through this and get Nate into his crew. After about
ten minutes, the men finally parted and faced him again. None seemed inclined
to speak right away as they all looked him over. He stood rigidly straight as
he regarded them in return.

A man he�d yet to hear speak leaned forward with a sigh. �Monkey
D. Luffy � We understand what you are trying to accomplish and how important it
is for you to change the views of this world �� He started.

Swallowing hard, L slowly closed his eyes, knowing exactly
what word was coming next. �However �� He slowly opened them again. �We do not
feel that allowing this criminal into your care is sufficient punishment for
his crimes.�

Swallowing again, his eyes drooped in disappointment as he
lowered his gaze to the ground. �If we were to allow this � there would be an
uprising of severity � Because of the majority of this worlds views on the
Devil�s Children, many would question the punishments given to others who were
not of this adverse condition.�

At hearing those words, L�s eye twitched slightly. Being a
Devil Child was not adverse. He had made her a promise and failed. Suddenly,
the doors burst open behind him. Jumping slightly, L quickly turned to the
doors. His grandfather towered just in the doorway, his chest straight out and
eyes piercing.

�Vice Admiral Garp. What brings you here?�

�I heard my grandson was to meet here for a hearing. The
odds unfortunately against him ��

�What he asks is merely impossible.�

�Impossible, you say? So then more is to be given to the boy
for his crimes?�

�Indeed. His crimes are of no meager injustice. Stealing
from others is punishable, no matter if he has an ability or not, for ten or
more years in prison.�

�That�s understandable, and I completely agree. Hard labor
works just as well ��

�Hard labor?� What are you suggesting?�

�Give me the boy � He will work very hard under me for a
year. I will show him no slack, and he shall receive little rest. I would
assume that prisoners would not have to work so hard in over five years that I
will bestow upon this boy. He will endure much and undergo fierce training in
the ways of the marines. If he is willing to do this without question, then I
feel that my grandson is right to assume he is changing for the better. After
this, I believe my grandson can take over his care from then on. I don�t think
he would go easy on him either.�

All of the men regarded Garp with frowns before turning to
one another to debate over this new proposition. Keeping his eyes on the
others, L took a deep breath before speaking. �Thank you � I know you are also
risking much by suggesting this �� He said only quietly enough for his
grandfather to hear.

�Don�t thank me yet � If that boy let�s me down � you will
take his place ��

Giving a slight smile and a bit of a breathy laugh, L then
nodded. �I understand ��

�We have considered your request, Garp � You will confirm
that this work will be diligent?�

�Painfully so ��

�If the criminal is willing to endure this for a year � we
will then consider Captain Luffy�s request to allow him custody at that time.�

�Thank you �� L said as he bowed to them.

�We will only consider it, Captain � It is not an
affirmative yet.�

�I understand � and all the same I thank you.� L said as he
straightened and regarded them seriously.

Nodding, all men stood and left the room. With a sigh of
relief, he then turned to his grandfather. �Thank you ��

�Don�t thank me yet boy �� Garp said as he turned, his coat
flowing behind him and strode from the room.

Smiling, L then left the room as well to make his way to his
crew. At spotting him, all stood to greet him in anticipation. However, Nami
looked at him in concern by his frown. However, she looked around, noticing
that he was indeed alone.

�What did they say?� She asked.

Sighing, he shifted his gaze downward before turning to Nate.
�Unfortunately, they did not give me custody of you �� He said quietly.

�Eh?! Are you serious?!� U yelled
ardently with a frown.

�Aa ��

�Oh no �� Nami breathed as she placed a hand over her mouth,
turning to Nate.

Nate only frowned a bit sadly before taking a deep breath.
�It�s alright � Thank you for trying. I really appreciate it. I did say I would
take any punishment.�

�A punishment was given, but it won�t be prison.�

�Eh?!� His crew exclaimed.

�Luffy, what are you talking about?!�

�My grandfather asked for custody of him instead, and it�s
been granted.�

�What?! Your
grandfather?!� Nami exclaimed in confusion.

�Aa, he will be working under him for a year before custody
to me will be considered ��

�A-A year?� Coby asked as he stared
at L in some bewilderment.

�Aa � However, it won�t be easy � It will be much harder
than if you were to go to prison � He will be very hard on you, and at times
you may wish you�d been sentenced prison time instead � However, they said if
you can endure a year with him, then they would consider my claim for custody
��

Swallowing hard, Nate shifted his gaze down before looking
back up at L. �I�ll do it � I want to prove to them who I am � and what I feel.
It doesn�t matter of it�s a year or two � I want to do this � I understand how
hard it will be, but maybe it�s better that way.�

Smiling, L nodded as he placed a hand on Nate�s shoulder.
�Aa, I�m glad you feel that way. Then I guess we will see you in a year�s time.
We will be back here then.�

Nodding and smiling as well, Nate then bowed to L. �Thank
you. I will look forward to it then.�

�Boy!�

Straightening quickly, Nate as well as everyone else turned
to the booming voice. �Ah ��

�Let�s go � We�ve work to do � We�ve a whole year to get
acquainted ��

�That�s my grandfather. Good luck, Nate �� L said as he
smiled at him.

Turning back to him, he reached out a hand. Grinning, L took
it and shook it amiably before turning to his grandfather.

�Let�s go boy! I�ve not got all day!�

�Yes, sir!� Nate called as he turned
and ran to Garp.

Garp turned, slapping Nate hard on his back. �Stand up
straight! Shoulders out! I�ll not have you slouching around me boy!�

�Yes, sir!� Nate replied as they
walked away from everyone.

�That was very nice of your grandfather. He risks much as
well for doing this.�

L smiled before shaking his head to N�s words. �My
grandfather wouldn�t have done this had he not believed in me or Nate. I think
he knows that Nate will turn out well. I think he just wanted to make sure he
turns out exceptionally well.�

N smiled as well as she turned to him. �Un, you�re right.�

Then he turned to his crew. �Shall we? Duty calls.�

�Aye, sir!� They all called before
grinning and following him out.

Chuckling, L grinned as he looked ahead of him. It�s not a
perfect promise, but hopefully he will eventually fulfill it. He saw why Nami
had been willing to fight him for Nate. He was a good person. He only hoped
they allowed him to join his crew once the year was up. It was all up to Nate,
really, but he had no doubts he would come out on top.

�See you in a year, Nate ��

The End �
