Feeling the slightest bit nervous to set her plan into motion, (Y/N) drew in a shaky breath before confidently walking out onto the streets and set her eyes into the castle's direction, keeping in mind that she had less than two hours now, just great.

She walked a bit further down the hard ground but then cussed when she almost took a tumble down, feeling a dull pain already beginning to set in, (Y/N) glared at the strange black shoes she swiped that were literally tearing at her tender feet, that were unoticeably red and sore after agonizing minutes of scrubbing away the years of stained dirt and mud from the soles of her feet.

But without losing sight of her goal she kept going, giving extra care and thought in avoiding another uncharacteristic trip that could potentially blow her cover, but as she got deeper and deeper into the town, the (H/C) began to notice stares.

Taking swift glances at the nobles around her, she saw how some females did double takes at her before snickering or staring at her with a bemused expression, almost as if she was a beast who intruded on their territory, but instead of shrieking in terror they giggled at her, mocking the sight of her, looking at a few males as well, they all scoffed at the sight of her and looked at her as if she was either trash or some kind of interesting discovery that they've never seen before.

The first thought she came up with is that she should have chosen a more degrading dress up after all, maybe something this plain was too unusual after all, but then a chilling thought came into mind from the very deepest and most horrid fear she ever had, what if they were looking at her scars?

Feeling goosebumps coat her frame in a shaken chill, she discreetly glanced down at her bare arms and chest, feeling a cold, heavy lead ball drop from her throat down into her gut, pooling in massive amounts of negative energy, making her almost try to glare away the marks that made her different from both the nobles and rebels for just this once.

Once the castle was in sight, (Y/N) had already decided to pay them no further mind and try to feel normal dispite being surrounded by such a new and challenging environment, with her confidence back where it belonged, she was just about to cut the next turn and begin phase two of her plan when the most unexpected and terrible thing happened, she bumped into another human chest.

Gasping in horror as she did so, (Y/N) looked up and paled when she came into eye contact with a pair of cold silver orbs with a furious fire that practically slayed her with their held fury, but curiously, they quickly softened into looking as if they were silently inquiring something, but that only frightened her more.

Law cussed in so many languages that he almost lost himself along the way as he sped above the canals and across the half empty sidewalks, no doubt in his mind that Smoker was just stalking him from somewhere afar, waiting for the time limit to hit so he could rush down there and have a perfect excuse to throttle him, but the raven would be pissed if he ever let that self righteous swine win, not today.

But just when he was about to make the corner he felt another smaller body press into him, great, that's just what he needed, some flirtatious, relentless female to stall him up and make him late, Law couldn't afford such a thing, so with all the frustration he could use, he darted his eyes down to scare her into silence before suddenly freezing.

His eyes immediately darted down to the...strange female's bare skin, seeing all the strange laceration scarring that resembled a predatory feline's stripes, they covered her skin like dust in an abandoned mansion, from her lithe, smooth legs to even her curvaceous face, it was almost foreboding in a way, although it made Law wonder why she hadn't hidden them with concealer like any other woman, in fact, why wasn't she wearing makeup at all?

Another strange thing his eyes picked out was her clothes, it was a beautiful color, and they wondrously shaped out her figure quite gorgeously, but it had no extravagant features, no absurd design, no ridiculous shape, there weren't even any jewels, all in all, she was strange to look at, but he also couldn't deny his slight attraction for the change on his fresh eyes.

The deer in headlights look she gave him made his chest flutter and his stomach drop down into his intestines when he got caught in her lively (E/C) stare, girls were never shy or afraid around him before, so seeing her freeze at the sight of him as if he was some unidentified creature made him wonder what she would say to him, and then he did, but they were definitely not the words he wanted to hear from such a soothing voice, "I'm sorry, bye" she squeaked.

Before he could even comprehend what was going on she was already past him and around the next corner, gone like a ghost, leaving Law in a state of shock, no girl ever walked by him without flirting first, or at least asking for his name and/or address, though only the truely desprate women bothered with those details.

He couldn't help but feel a small blow to his ego that he was actually passed by one of the most intriguing fair maidens he's ever laid eyes upon, and without even getting to say a word to her either.

But before he could even overthink about it, his mind suddenly whirled back into reality, "oh shit, school!" Law then raced into the direction he originally intended and prayed to god he wouldn't screw it up.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(Y/N) felt her face heat up as she disappeared around the corner and heavily slumped against the wall in the abandoned alley, that man was one scary but at the same time curious looking guy, while the invader was absolutely mortified at the fact that she actually spoke to one of those..weird, stiffs, the glare he gave her made her suddenly have a flashback from her childhood.

The terrific monster, it's sharp black fangs glistening with red blood, it's large, nimble claws, the stained black fur that was constantly dripping, but the one thing that she was stuck on was those eyes, such menace, such aggression, so much anger, in that moment that man was almost as horrifying and the demons she used to face, these nobles were so different from the usually kind rebels.

They were so cold to each other, weird, dangerous, for once ever since she slipped into the other side's territory, she was truely afraid of what they would do to her if they knew she wasn't a noble, but she didn't cry, she didn't cower back.

A small toothy grin trembled it's way onto her cheeks as (Y/N) shakily stood up with a crazed look in her (E/C) orbs, this familiar feeling, this sensation, given to her from being surrounded by nothing but danger and enemies, it made her feel...

Wild.

Finally beginning to take in deep breaths, her body slowly began to calm down from all of the forced adrenaline moving in her veins along with her cautious, racing mind, soon (Y/N) felt completely domesticated and regained control over herself.

Tiredly opening one eye, she looked down the other end of the alley and smirked as she raised her gaze to finally see the top of the marble wall that stood not that far from her, "better get this over with before I go all nuts in here" she muttered.
