Lacie was sitting in the Port Mafia prison. She was hand cuffed by the wrists and ankles, and she sat there with her face showing no emotion. Lacie didn't even move when she heard the approaching footsteps of someone. They stopped short of the bars and they leaned on them looking inside at the woman.

"Hey Lacie." Oda said softly.

Lacie looked up shocked. "...Oda."

"Why'd you do it Lacie...? Why'd you hurt Chuuya? You knew you'd never revive Rose. You were well aware of that even when you stole the book. So why?"

Lacie smiled bittersweetly as tears slipped down her face. "I loved you... you know...? I dedicated 2 years of my life to you... to us... and you left me for him... how was I supposed to feel? Happy...? Relieved...? You broke my heart Oda."

"I know... and I'm sorry Lacie. But that's not Chuuya's fault. I'm sorry I should have ended it sooner. I had stopped being in love with you way before I met Chuuya. I shouldn't have strung you along and for that I am terribly sorry, but Chuuya didn't deserve what you did to him. And neither did my baby."

"I wanted you to feel the pain I felt... So, I shot Chuuya when he was pregnant. I shot him so many times. Because I wanted to make sure he and your baby didn't survive. But then he was reincarnated..." Lacie said sobbing. "And his rage killed my daughter... in the end... I still lost everything!"

"...You didn't. You had two people who loved you more than anything. Jack and Rose both loved you. But blinded by your jealousy and rage you took them for granted. And now they're both dead. Maybe that's your karma Lacie for what you did to Chuuya and my daughter."

Lacie's eyes widened. "....Daughter? How did you-"

"When Chuuya was reincarnated, so was my baby. Seems the doctor was wrong about our baby being a boy." Oda chuckled. "She's a very beautiful baby girl. Ginger curls, and the deepest ocean blue eyes, freckles like her mother. She's perfect."

"But how?! Chuuya wasn't even far along! She wasn't even born into existence!"

"I don't know." Oda admitted. "But I'm grateful." Oda said smiling. "You could have had the same happiness Lacie. I feel sorry for you. This is the last time we'll ever talk."

"What's going to happen to me...?"

"I don't know. That's up to the boss of the Port Mafia."

"Are you going to kill me?"

"If it was up to me... I wouldn't kill you. I'd say you're already living in your own personal hell on earth. That in itself is enough punishment."

Oda said before he walked out of the prison, leaving Lacie with her thoughts.

Oda walked into the little nursery they had made for Oda and Chuuya's daughter. Mori stood next to the incubator reading charts and him and Dazai turned their attention to Oda as he walked over.

"Thanks for staying with her Dazai."

"Of course." Dazai said smiling. "She's a really happy baby." Dazai said smiling as he poked her tummy and she giggled.

"Yeah she is. Isn't she?" Oda said smiling as he looked down at his daughter.

"Have you decided on a name yet?" Dazai asked.

"I want to speak with Chuuya first. But I have an idea what he'd name her." Oda said smiling.

"Chuuya will he?"

"Remember anything from being a kid?" Oda said looking at Dazai. "No. He won't remember any of it."

"Ah." Dazai said sadly. "I see..."

Oda put his hand on Dazai shoulder and he smiled as Dazai looked up at him. "But... I know Chuuya would love to have a good friendship with you. If you want to apologize maybe you should give him Aki as a present again." Oda smiled. "I was going to take baby girl to see him why not come with me?"

Dazai looked at him surprised and then he smiled. "I'd like that."

Oda walked into the infirmary with his daughter in his arms, and Dazai standing next to him with Aki. Chuuya looked over at Oda and he smiled. Oda stopped before reaching the bed and Dazai walked ahead of him and he kneeled down, Dazai looked up at Chuuya and he smiled as he sat Aki next to Chuuya. Chuuya's eyes widened in shock and they filled up with tears as he picked up Aki.

"It's a puppy... you-" Chuuya looked in disbelief.

"I'm sorry Chuuya." Dazai said looking sadly. "I hurt you a lot. And I am so sorry. You didn't deserve that. It was cruel and I should have never did it. I hope you can forgive me." Dazai said bowing his head. "And I hope if you'll let me... we can be friends... and I can make it up to you."

Chuuya sat in the hospital bed silent for a moment, and then he smiled and he put his hand on Dazai's head. "I forgive you. Thank you for the puppy." Chuuya said as he smiled while rubbing Dazai's head. "And I... would love to be friends... partner."

Dazai smiled as happy tears slipped out of his eyes. "Thank you Chuuya."

Oda smiled at them both as he walked over to them. Oda sat on the opposite side of Chuuya and Chuuya rested his head on Oda as he looked at his daughter with content. "She's beautiful..."

Oda kissed Chuuya's head and he put her in Chuuya's arms as Oda held Aki instead. "That she is. And she's all ours."

"Yeah she is." Chuuya said smiling warmly. Chuuya looked at her tiny yawn, and he kissed her forehead as he held her close.

"Seon Mi." Chuuya said. "Her name will be Seon Mi." Chuuya said looking up at Oda smiling.

Seon Mi...

"I think... that's a wonderful name for her." Oda said as he smiled down at his daughter and pulled Chuuya and Seon Mi close to him protectively. Dazai looked at the family smiling.

"She'll do amazing things one day. This is only the beginning for you guys." Dazai said smiling as the small baby wrapped her tiny hand around his finger. "Right, Seon Mi?"

The infant slept contently as she was surrounded by the love of her parents, and her god father.
