Day 7
Jenna wore her new shirt proudly as she walked around in town. How could she not?
"This is the best!" She laughed and elbowed Ace's side, waking the commander from his attempt to close his eyes. "Come on, Ace-y, no sleeping! I can't drag you back to the Moby if you suddenly faceplant on the ground and start snoring!"
She stopped walking.
"Ace?" She blinked, turned around, and frowned. "ACE!!!!"
The young man that she was supposed to be having a conversation with is now happily snoring away with his face on the concrete. "Great, just great." Jenna sighed.
She allowed her bright white flames to engulf her body as she took on a new form.
Her Ninetailed Fox form, a dangerous part of herself that she tries to keep under control.
However, whenever Ace was around, things seemed to be okay. For a while.
"Alright, Fire-Flump, let's get you home." She huffed in annoyance, hoisting Ace up on her back using her nine tails, and started sprinting towards the Whitebeard ship that was docked a few kilometers away.
Vista was on his way out to town to join the other division members, but stopped and waved hello to the twelve ft tall fox that bounded on board.
"I see that you're doing well, Jenna." He chuckled, nodding to the sleeping man draped on her back.
Jenna smirked and nodded to him, before slowly shifting to her hybrid form and heading inside the ship while carrying a heavy, six ft tall, freckled division commander.
"Ace," she whined, half-carrying and half-dragging him to his room. "You're heavy! Wake up and walk by yourself!" She exclaimed.
Ace muttered a quiet yet audible "No" in his sleep.
She grumbled, "If you don't wake up then I'll call sis."
"Call me for what?"
Ace immediately stood upright and tensed when the voice of none other than the Ice Queen herself spoke.
Jewel raised an eyebrow at him and smirked. "Hope you weren't bothering my sister, Portgas. I'm gonna have to punish you if you stress her out." Slowly walking closer to him, she tip toed and leaned towards him. "And it won't be the kind of punishment you'll enjoy."
After hearing those words, Ace quickly walked away without another word.
"I still don't understand why he's like that when you do that, sis." Jenna giggled. Then her smile immediately faltered. "Wait. What did you mean by 'punishment'?"
She eyed her sister warily. And why was Jewel here in the ship in the first place? She couldn't possibly be seeing Ace behind her back, right?
Jewel shrugged and smiled, walking out of the ship.
