"So, what have you been up to these 11 years?" Luffy asked as he and Aisuru walked towards the resturant that she had been in with Uta before.

"Well, I stayed on Dad's ship for two more years after we met, then Dad dropped me off with my Aunt Dawn." Aisuru said.

"Your Aunt?" Luffy asked. Aisuru nodded.

"Mm-hmm. She's the best assassin in the world. She taught me how to control my devil fruit powers and taught me to use Haki. I heard you met my grandpa and he taught you Haki?" She asked.

"Oh, Reyleigh is your grandpa?" Luffy asked. Aisuru giggled and nodded.

"Yup! Anyway, while I was with Auntie, I met Verity." She said.

"Who's Verity?" Luffy asked.

"Uta's girlfriend." Aisuru said.

"Uta has a girlfriend? She didn't want a boyfriend?" Luffy asked.

"All the guys that flirted with her were jerks. Verity was actually really sweet to Uta. But yeah, Verity worked for Auntie as an assassin for a while, but she really wanted to be a treasure hunter. She was part of the Whitebrleard pirates for a little bit." Aisuru said.

"Then... she knew Ace?" Luffy asked. Aisuru nodded, a sad look across her face.

"They didn't become super close, but it still hurt her. After the war, she decided to go out on her own. Around that time, I reunited with Uta. She and I had been going around for a while, trying ti save up money for a stage ship. Uta wants to perform across all seas." Aisuru said.

"And you've been helping her?" Luffy asked. Aisuru nodded.

"Yup. For the fiest few months, I just played Violin for her. But then guys started being real creeps trying to kidnap her, so I started acting more like her body gaurd. Verity joined up with us and also acted as a body gaurd for Uta. Then they started dating." She said.

"Wow. That's actually pretty cute!" Luffy said with a laugh. Aisuru giggled.

"I know, right? Verity is normally pretty rough around the edges, but the second Uta came in to the picture, she just melted in to a puddle! Kinda like me and you." She said. He chuckled and pulled her closer to him.

"I'm glad! Verity can take care of Uta, and I can take care of you!" He said. She rolled her eyes.

"I can take care of myself, you know." She said.

"Yeah... but you're my girlfriend. Its my job to take care of you. Even if you can take care of yourself... I want to be able to protect you." Luffy said. A sweet smile was in his face and Aisuru's face ignited in a bright blush.

"Well... I want to protect you, too! So, know that I'm gonna do that!" She said. Luffy laughed.

"Its a deal then!" He said. She smiled and leaned over, pecking a kiss to his cheek.

"Deal." She said with a giggle. He leaned over and pecked a kiss to her cheek.

"Deal." He agreed.

They entered the resturant and Aisuru's eyes swept the resturant before she found who she was looking for.

"Uta! Verity!" She called. She tugged Luffy over to the table they were sitting at.

"There you are, Pup." Verity said cooly. Her eyes landed on Luffy and her eyes widened.

"Ace's little bro?" She asked.

"Aisuru! You found Luffy!" Uta said with a bright smile.

"More like he found me! He was the one the owner said was looking for us!" She said. She and Luffy sat down.

"Hi, Uta! Its been a long time!" Luffy said with a smile.

"Yeah it has! But down to business." Uta said. She crossed her hands on the table and glared down at Luffy.

"As you know, Aisuru is my precious baby sister. She's one of the things in this world that I hold dearest, so you better not let anything happen to her! And you better treat her right! If I ever hear that you hurt her or break her heart then there will be nothing to stop me from tracking you down and locking you away in the music world!" Uta said.

"Nothing to worry about, Uta! Ai-chan and I are always gonna be together!" Luffy said, wrapping an arm around Aisuru. Aisuru dropped her head to his shoulder with a smile.

"Okay, good! Next order of business, you better take care of her!" She said. Aisuru sighed.

"Uta-"

"Let me do my big sister thing!" Uta scolded her. Aisuru rolled her eyes, but let her continue.

"And don't go getting her in unnecessary trouble!" Uta told Luffy. Luffy just grinned at her.

"I'll always keep her by my side. She'll always be safe with me, Uta. I won't let anything happen to her! Promise!" Luffy said. He held out his pinky to her. She reached out and wrapped her pinky around his.

"Then its a promise." She said.

"Okay, now that that's out of the way, how about we enjoy this time? Like you said, Uta, Aisuru is a woman of her word and she made a deal with Luffy that when they met she'd join his crew, so how about we turn this in to a double date?" Verity asked, her purple eyes landing on Aisuru and Luffy.

"Yeah, that sounds like a good idea, Ver! Luffy and Uta can catch up and we can all enjoy company together!" Aisuru agreed.

"Oh, so you're Verity, huh? Its nice to meet you! Ai-chan told me all about you and Uta." Luffy said. He smiled at her.

"Thanks for taking care of my friend." He said. Verity smiled at him.

"No problem, its what girlfriends do. You really are sweet in real life, just like Ace said." She told him.

"Right, you knew Ace. You were part of the Whitebeard pirates." Luffy said.

"For a brief amount of time. I joined with my friend, Yatsumi. After we lost the Old Man, I decided to go off on my own. I met up with Aisuru and Uta and decided to stick around. I still consider the Whitebeard Pirates as my family, so I still swing by Sphinx fairly often. You should come by and visit some time." Verity said.

"Sure!" Luffy said with a bright grin.

The night continued on with Uta and Luffy catching up and Aisuru and Verity joining in on the jokes every now and again. And across the days, Uta and Verity met the rest if the crew and they all began fast friends.

Soon, the log pose was set and it was time for the Straw Hat Pirates to set sail for their next adventure. Which meant it was time for Aisuru to say goodbye. Once they had her things moved to the Sunny, Aisuru and Luffy prepared to say goodbye to Uta and Verity.

"Well, looks like this is where we part ways for now. Thanks for letting me stay for the past two years, Uta." Aisuru said.

"You're my sister, Aisuru! Of course you'll always have a place to stay with me! Take care of yourself now, and don't let Luffy drag you in to too much trouble." Uta said.

"Are we talking about the same Luffy here?" Zoro asked. Aisuru giggled.

"He's got a point." She said.

"You got a good point." Uta sighed. Aisuru looked at Verity.

"It might be a bit harder now, Verity, but please keep looking after my big sister. I know she can be a handful sometimes, but I know she'll be safe as long as you're with her." Aisuru told her. Verity grinned.

"You know me, Aisuru. I'll take good care of her and keep her safe." Verity said.

"Luffy! Aisuru! Come on, it's time to go!" Nami called.

"We're coming Nami!" Luffy called. The two turned back to the other two girls.

"So where will you two go now?" Aisuru asked.

"We'll head to Sphinx in a couple of days." Uta said.

"I want to check on things there. See if Marco and Yatsu need any help with anything. After that, well, that's up to Uta." Verity said. Aisuru nodded.

"That makes sense. Say hi to Marco amd Yatsu for me!" Aisuru said.

"We will. Take care of yourself out there, Aisuru." Verity said.

"I'll miss you, little sister. Be careful." Uta said. Aisuru hugged Uta.

"No worries, Uta. And if I see Dad, I'll let him know you're okay!" She said. Ita hugged her back.

"Alright, we'll see you later!" Uta called as Aisuru and Luffy boarded the ship. The two waved at the two women as they sailed away from the harbor.

After the sun began to set, Aisuru and Luffy sat in the head of the Sunny together.

"Hey, Aisuru... you'll stay by my side, right? Forever?" Luffy asked. Aisuru wrapped one arm around Luffy's waist.

"Always." She said.

"Then it's a deal?" He asked. She nodded.

"Yeah, a deal." She said. Luffy raised his hand to her cheek and turned her head to face him. He leaned in and pressed a kiss to her lips. She leaned in to the kiss.

"Deal." He said when they parted.

Aisuru laid her head on his shoulder and smiled.

She was so happy he kept his promise.

The end.
