(On hold)The Red Demoness (One Piece FF)

Chapter 5: Seeing Big Brother Again

'sigh' Scarlett was pouting today. Of course many of the Red Hair pirates started to noticing the depressed aura that surrounded Scarlett.

"Ahh, Shanks you should go check on her." Benn said to his captain with a sweat drop.

"Eh" He turned his head to see Scarlett who was in a corner growing mushrooms now.

"I'll name you Bob." Scarlett said rubbing the top of one of the many mushrooms that she grew. Shanks sweat dropped as did the rest of the crew and made his way over to his daughter who reminded him very much of his wife. As he got closer he also saw Ruby who had been laying right beside his master acting just as depressed as her.

"Hey sweetheart are you alright what's the matter?" He asked with a smile.

"Oh, hey Dad I'm just sad that I haven't heard from Ace in awhile that's all, I'm kinda worried."

"Wait who's this Ace?" Shanks asked scared to know the answer, even if the name sounded familiar, but he pushed it to the back of his mind and focused on his daughter to hear the answer.

"OH, I thought I told you about Ace. Well he's the one I meet while living with the Bandits. Ace became like an older brother." Scarlett said her depressing cloud disappearing as her mood brightened.

"Wait brother?" Shanks asked dumbly.

"Yeah, he had become an older brother to me since I lived on Dawn Island." She says with a small smile remembering the past. Shanks remembered a cretin freckled person who had searched for him and found him on a snowy mountain top. Ace had then introduce himself then properly thanked him for saving his little brother Luffy. But Shanks had cut him off from saying anything else when he had mention Luffy and they all partied all night long. Then he remembered that the freckled man was now part of White Beard's crew. Shanks got an idea of what would really make his daughter happy.  He patted her head and gave her a smile which she gladly returned. Shanks got up and made his way over to Benn, Yasopp, and Luckly Roo.

"Benn set a course for Whitebeard's ship." Shanks said.

"Are you sure Cap?" Benn asked spectacle.

"Yeah, it's a surprise for Scarlett to see her older brother who happens to be Ace. Who she happens to see as an older brother. So not a single one of you tell her and ruin the surprise."

"Aright Captain we should be there by tomorrow seeing as we are near by."

"Good." he then made his way back over to Scarlett to continue there training since it was about that time when they would train.

*Next Day*

~Near Whitebeard's ship~

"Ok guys everyone stay here while I talk to the Old Man. And that includes you My little Red Rose."

"W-what why?!" She said with a pout.

"I want to speak to him first then maybe, you could come aboard." he said as the ship docked beside the Moby. Then after some of the new recruits set a plank to connect the two ships together, once set he then set out to board the ship with some magic waters for Whitebeard.

*Scarlett's P.O.V.*

'Hmph,'crossing my arms. Its not fair I wanted to go to. After all I know Gramps, but I guess can't really say anything since mom said to not tell dad. I then got an idea why not ask the one who will blab his mouth when someone scares him more then he could take. I made my way over to the man that will blabber what he knows.

"OH, Yasopp!" I shouted out and saw him visibly tense. I smirked I got them now of course they are hiding something from me. I finally reached Yasopp with Rudy resting on top of my head and put an arm around his shoulder and given he was sitting down was easier for me since well I'm short.
