Law sat back and looked out the tinted, bullet-proof windows of his Hummer. Keeping his face stoic as he rolled his eyes at his flailing chauffeur. The eccentric man had been his chauffeur for a while now, and by far, was probably the worst one he ever had, constantly getting into accidents and running late for just about everything. The only reason why Law even kept him around was for the man's preposterous actions.

" Keep your eyes on the road," Law muttered while he crossed his arms and slunk back into his seat. Brook on the other hand flung one bony hand up in the air and made more dramatic hand movements towards the road.

" You're late! Yohohoho, you're late! Again!" Law took a deep breath as he listened to his chauffeur ramble on. Nothing seemed to be going well for him today. He was late to yet another meeting and the stoplights in Hokkaido didn't seem to be agreeing with him. Closing his eyes in silent aggravation he opened his mouth to say something when suddenly the car came into a screeching stop with Brook yelling at the top of his lungs that he was, 'too young to die!'

' Then you shouldn't be in this line of work.' Law thought raising an eyebrow. Driving a 15 ton car while getting shot at, on a daily basis wasn't exactly the most life-prolonging job in the world. Caught in his thoughts, he was suddenly he was slammed into the back of the front seat, his hands flying in front of him to catch himself. Groaning he looked up.

" What the hell was that?" He muttered, not seeing any reason as to why they hit a sudden stop in the road like that. Brook shook his head in a daze. Suddenly his whole body jerked back up and Brook was pulling over the Hummer. Sighing, Law wondered what possible problems Brook could have encountered this time around. Brook parked the car-illegally, not that it really mattered anymore-and hopped out.

" Hohohohoho, are you okay young sir?" Brook asked with a note of hysteria in his voice. Law's head snapped up hearing those words and was about to respond to them, when he realized that they were directed towards someone else. Wondering if he was going to have to carry home another body awkwardly shoved into the back of his car he cursed, not needing this in his already busy schedule.

Praying that it wasn't a policeman or some other law-enforcement officer he jumped into action.

" Brook, what did you do?" Calling out to Brook, he grabbed the door handle closest to him and threw his long legs out the passenger-side door. Landing on the pavement with a thud, he jogged over to where a boy was trying to get up off the grungy ground. He saw a scraggly mop of black hair and a bright red shirt. The person has shaking his head and laughing at Brooks' face that was filled with trepidation.

" I'm fine, I'm fine," the kid seemed to be saying, and Law let out a breath. Seeing as though this was nothing more than a waste of his time he snorted and with a sharp turn, started making his way back to his car. Gritting his teeth in aggravation, he jammed his hands into his pockets.

" Yo, mister, aren't ya, going to like, ask if I'm okay?" An annoying, underdeveloped voice called out to him. Without bothering to stop walking Law yelled out.

" Nah, kid. I don't waste my time dealing with dense middle-schoolers," he was about to also throw something in there about how the kid should be lucky his chauffeur even bothered to speak with the kid, when he was interrupted.

" I, am in college, though I don't expect an old geezer like you to remember what college kids look like anymore." The small, squeaky, annoying voice seemed to get even more aggravating as time went on. Closing his eyes, Law knew that he really, really, didn't have time for this, and he whirled around, to meet himself face to face with a-

Huge dent in his Hummer. Looking over at the black car glittering in the sunlight, he saw a decently sized dent on the hood. Knowing his mechanic, the dent would be an easy fix, costing him nothing to fix-the pro's to being the most dangerous man in Japan.

But yet, he wanted to mess with the kid a bit, and who could blame him really? Mouthing him off like that, the boy sure had something coming towards him. And knowing that the scrawny looking kid was infact, a college student, he knew that he probably didn't have much money on him. Smirking at the kid Law looked down at him with a malicious glint in his eye.
