Chapter 6: Cat Out of the Bag
Tora
Oh dear, I sigh to myself when the swordsman from the other table got up and started to walk to our table. Then again, I am not that kind of Devil to sit and wait. Going to a table the moss haired man was about to pass, I bump the table for a glass of wine to spill onto the floor. And the result: the swordsman slipping and falling hard on his back.
Tora! Crista exclaims.
What, I did you guys a favor! I protested as the swordsman gets up with the people from the wine table rush over and apologize multiple times until the swordsman gets up in an annoyed manner and walks off. See? Problem solved.
Thanks, Tora, Yue says graciously as I wonder back to the table. When I do, I ended up being smacked upside the head.
Ow! What the hell, Dairo?!? I exclaimed.
Hey neko baka, turn around, a new voice sounds out. I do as I'm told to see a Devil having his arms crossed in a pissed off manner despite being calm. He reminded me of Unten, only that he had raven black hair and opal orange eyes.
Rabā, Dairokkan notices the Devil as well. It's been a long time.
Too long, the Rubber Devil says. Now what the hell are you doing here?
Taking a break from searching for Logia's Chosen, Dairokkan responds. Tora and I have already been chosen to represent Paramecia and Zoan.
You two? Rabā says in disbelief. Chosen for the Trinity? Have they gone insane? The world has been at peace for centuries! Why pop up now?!
Because someone now has the Yami Yami no Mi, I growled, causing the Rubber Devil's eyes to widened. And that person plans to free Kurai to start a new era.
That. . . explains a lot, Rabā rubs his head but gains an irk mark when staff members start to chew out Luffy in the background. Goddammit, why did that idiot had to eat my fruit?!
Which idiot? I ask, tilting my head.
Monkey D. Luffy, the Rubber Devil growls. I can't decide if it's luck or stupidity that keeps him alive.
Let me guess, it's at the point to which you hate him enough to want him dead?
Yes, so I can finally go-- WHAT THE HELL?!? Rabā shrieks, causing a nearby wine bottle to break only for Dairo to make it look like it fell off. Yue, however, sips her tea, pretending that we weren't here.
That would be my master, Yue, I responded calmly. She's able to see us.
And can tell that you guys can take it outside if you're going to have a gossip session, Yue responds while looking at the menu. Rabā however, ended up hugging her chair.
Why couldn't my fruit be eaten by a smart human like you?! he whines as the waterworks flow.
Oi, that's my human! Back off! I kicked Rabā away from Yue, sending him out of a window. Did I ever mention that I can be possessive when other Devils try to go at Yue?
Crista
"You just had to intervene," I quietly say behind my menu."You could've let them alone."
"And continue to hear the ranting by my ear? I know you were starting to get annoyed by it too," Yue responded back.
"Except that unlike you, I know better than to freak other people out."
"Someone help! My captian is in need of food!" someone shouts out. I turned around to see a pair of men staggering in. However, I can feel my pulse quicken at the sight of one of the men with the fur trimmed coat and the bandage around his head.
"Sanji-san, may we get our food order to go?" I quickly ask the blonde the moment he walks by the table. "I forgot that we're actually in a hurry to get to a place."
"Sure thing," Sanji pulls out a notepad and pen. "What can I get for you, Akai-chan?"
"Whatever is the quickest to cook," I replied. "Same goes for Murasaki." Yue nearly protested until I kick her shin under the table to shut her up.
"The two West Blue Wanpaku Sandwiches. I'll get those done and ready to go with you when you're ready to leave."
"What's the big deal, Tonchiki?!" Yue silently snaps at me the moment Sanji leaves. "We just got here!"
"Because the man that was dragged in here is someone we can't deal right now," I quietly motion to the two men. "The guy with the bandage is known as Don Kreig and spells trouble if he recognizes us. And you're calling the kettle black for that insult." However, that's when a sudden crash is heard as a chef is sent flying while customers flee the restaurant. I automatically get up and grab Yue by the hand to drag her out the door.
"Where do you think you're going, Psychic Hunter Crista?!" I suddenly get kicked in the gut by the pirate, being sent flying as Yue ducks while holding her hat to her head. I brace for impact only to land in someone's arms.
"Akai-san, are you okay?" I look up to find myself being held by Sanji, his face full of concern despite the pure anger in his visible eye.
"Trust me, I've been hit with worse," I reply before getting back to my feet. "But thank you for the save."
"Oi." I look up to see one chef holding a large bag of food. What caught me off guard was the chef looked really familiar despite his right leg being a peg.
"Me?" I point to myself, being confused on who he was talking to.
"Yes you, missy," the chef answered. "Is what that man called you true?"
"Yes sir," I sigh in disappointment. "I am Psychic Hunter Harmony Jade Crista. I was hoping to lay low. . . But I now guess the cat's out of the bag."
