Scarlet POV

Finally! We'll get to see Luffy and the others soon! In the few days it took to go to the Punk Hazard, where Luffy and the others are, me and Gil were playing charades and card games to which the cards were borrowed from the members of the crew. I accidentally suffocated the cute talking polar bear, which I learned his name was Bepo, quite a few times.
Gil was busy at some times so he couldn't play with me so I had to go and bother Law. He was so angry when I did. I also got toured around the submarine. I got a basic idea of the layout. We finally arrived at the island. It was very cold to say the least. I put on the parka that Law gave to me and gave one to Gil. He put it on as Law threw his own on.

" You, Gilbert and I are going inside to meet with straw-hat-ya"Law said as he pointed to a large building that looked deserted.

" Why aren't the others coming?" I asked.

" We need some people to watch the ship... and most people wouldn't want to go out in this kind of weather" explained Law.

" Ohhh. Okay! Let's get going!" And so, we started our walk into the dark building. We opened the door and went in. We went pass tens of empty rooms. We finally stopped in the biggest room so far.

" It's gigantic! It must be at least a mile!" I exclaimed. I looked to Gil and Law. Gil was smiling but Law looked agitated. I wonder why?" Ne, Law, I was wondering why you look so agitated?" He looked shock and then gritted his teeth.

" .....I'm sorry Scarlet" he whispered before a hand grabbed my arm. I felt something cold click around my arm.I knew what they were. They were Kairōseki handcuffs. Law.. what's happening? Did he.. betray us? No... he... did he? Was this all just a trick? Is this a trap set up by Law? No! I can't think like that!
As I thought that, my consciousness faded. I opened my eyes something that was terrifying.
To my left Gil was also cuffed and could not do anything. But that wasn't what bothered me, it was the man standing in front of me. It was my uncle, Clifford-san. My eyes widened as tears nearly leaked out.

" Clifford-san! Where were you?! You disappeared twelve years ago!" I cried. He left when my mom died, when I thought my mom mysteriously disappeared. He was kind but now... we were happy with my mom. That day would always haunt me after I learned the truth. He looked at me, not with kindness but with anger.

" Scarlet... your mother... my little sister... she was killed" he muttered to me a bit crazily.

" ...My..? .....Mother..?"

" Yes... she was killed by your father... " he glared at me with fierce hatred. I shrunk in my spot. Clifford-san..." It was your fault... It was all your fault...!"

" Uncle... What are you talking-" I started.

" Don't think you can fool me! It's your fault! It's your fault that you were born! Mikasa would still be here if you weren't born! My little sister would still be alive!" He yelled. Mom...? Mikasa was my mom's name... mom?
It was....my fault? A tear slid down my cheek.

" But...!-but-... I- ..My... fault..? Mom...?" Tears start streaming down my face as I sobbed miserably. It was my fault.. I was born... now she's dead... really? Then I realized... Yes, it is my fault.
It's all my fault, isn't it?

" It would've been better if you were never born! We would all be happy! If just you weren't born!" He yelled. All those memories of my kind uncle shattered as I sobbed once again. He's right.. I shouldn't have been born.
Everyone would've been better off without me-

" That's not true...!" Eh...? Who's that..? What does he mean? I opened my eyes. A figure my eyes could barely make out because of the tears. Why..? " If she was never born... I... I wouldn't be here now... " he started." If she weren't born.... I would still be someone without emotions... I would still be looking for revenge for my family...!" Why....? Why..?! Why Gil..? Why would you say this for me..?"If she weren't born I wouldve never been this happy!" He got rid of the handcuffs and was standing up.
" Ans if Scarlet weren't born I... I wouldn't have fallen in love with her!" ........What..? What... did he... just say..? Fallen... in love? Gil...? Me..? I flushed a deep red. He... likes me..?
