(y/n) p.o.v)

As Sebastian tightened his grip on me, I could feel myself slowly drifting off, quietly relishing his embrace but then I noticed the demon's mood change.

"Sebastian?" I sniffle, looking up at him with puffy red eyes. He looked down at me with pink slit ones that seemed to emit only rage.

"Yes, amica mea?" 

"Don't be mad.  I know that you want to hurt him, but if you do, i'll make it my personal mission to use the rest of my life to make yours a living hell."

"You act like I haven't been there before."

"You act like I can't conjure up worse than what you've seen." My voice was still weak and horse but one could hear the amusement ringing throughout my sentence. 

Sebastian and I looked at each other before I found myself being enveloped from behind. Knowing who it was, I quickly turned around to hug Shanks. 

"I'll take you with me." he said solemnly against my shoulder. I shook my head and touched his cheek. 

"Masahiko is going to need his uncle with him while I'm gone."

"Then where are you going?"

"Where are Mihawk, Pharoh and Amador?"

"They are back at Aepyornis." He replied holding me closer, nuzzling into my neck as he did so. I sighed at his reply since that was name of the city I'd originally come from. Honestly speaking, I didn't want to go back there. After all I'd seen with Mihawk, Aepyornis seemed inferior to me.

"I have to go all the way back there?"I whine, slightly bummed by the idea. My brother chuckled a bit and pulled away to look at me.

"Yup, sorry." He gave a goofy grin causing me to shake my head in mock annoyance and turn to look at Sebastian, touch his nose softly. I laughed when he wrinkled it and looked at me confused. 

"Please don't do that."

"For the next few days, I'm going to be stuck at sea bordely looking at the waves. You're going to be my company." His deep chuckle rang throughout the room before he stood up and began to make his way to the window.

"I'll be here tomorrow to help with your departure." And with that he was gone leaving me to finish packing my things, the sad smile never leaving my face. 

(mihawk P.O.V)

I groaned as I lay on my bed tossing and turning from the excruciating pain ringing throughout my body. 'What the hell did she do to me?'  My thoughts raged on as I feel another rush of pain, causing a small yelp to escape me.

"Father?" I weakly opened my eyes to see Masahiko looking up at me with a worried gaze. Not wanting him to  worry, I reached a hand out to pat his head softly.

"I'm fine, Masa. Don't worry." He looked at me a bit longer before intertwining his tiny fingers with my larger ones and holding my hand to his cheek which was wet with tears. 

"Mommy's hurt, you're practically dying, Uncle Sebastian is probably going to try and steal Mommy's heart and worst of all Uncle Shanks and his crew look like they want your head on a silver platter. What's happening? Why does my chest hurt? Is it supposed to do that? Why do I feel hallow? Why does my heart beat so fast? Why can't I stop shivering? Why..." I didn't let him finish and pulled him towards me despite the agony the simple gesture triggered. 

"You're scared Masahiko. You've finally found something you can't kill with a sword or knives and you don't know what to do in the face of it." My son whimpered into my chest, his will not to cry slowly waning. Without hesitation, I placed a soft kiss on his forehead and cheek

"Cry."

"But a good swordsman.."

"I don't care, a good man knows not to let his emotions build up until he can't control himself anymore. Now cry."

Masahiko didn't waste time and released his tears onto my arm before moving up to cry into my chest.

"I'm so scared, I don't want my family to be split apart! I love you all so much, i don't want everyone to hate each other." he continued to ramble out his feelings as i placed my head atop his. I may not have felt anything for (y/n) anymore but my son was a different matter.
