WARNINGS! THIS STORY WILL CONTAIN VIOLENCE, RAPE, SWEARING AND ANGST!
Disclaimer: I do not own the characters, or the songs in this story, the only thing I own is the story itself.
I felt my heart banging hard against my ribs as I kept running as fast as I could through the dark forest, I knew I didn't have much time, my follower would catch me soon, but I had to do this.
I hissed as I tripped and landed on my damaged leg, but I ignored it and kept running for all I was worth, I didn't have time for pain right now, this was my only chance.
It had taken months of planning to get out of that hell hole and I knew the chance to break out again was less than zero, so I pushed myself into running even faster, faster than I have ever run before.
As I reached the end of the forest I came to a stop, I made a gurgling sound and waited.
After only a sec, a bird came flying down landing on the ground.
I heard a cracking sound somewhere behind me, but when I turned around all I saw was darkness, not that it said much, I knew he was in there, soon he would catch up with me.
"Take this to the moby dick, or someone who can deliver it, please, hurry, you're my only hope." I whispered as I turned back to the bird, giving it a small piece of paper.
The bird didn't answer and I watched as it flew away, and felt as my follower was getting closer.
5 months earlier!
"OI, ACE! Stop hiding, Marco is going crazy being worried over you"!
Ace smiled when he was reminded about his lover being way too overprotective for his own good as he emerged out from the kitchen.
"It's not my fault he can't even think of looking in the kitchen, Thatch. Also i thought you were supposed to look after him while i ate."
Ace answered while frowning.
"Well...i was, but.."
Ace cut him off before he could finish that sentence.
"I really hope for your sake that he is NOT running around looking for me, because then shit WILL go down and it WONT be pleasant!" He growled, giving Thatch a glare.
Marco had somehow managed to break a leg and a foot in their last battles after being shot whit sea prissonstone while in the air and was now ordered to full bed rest until the sea prissonstone would go out of his system so he could selfheal again, and of course Marco was driven insane over not being able to leave his bed even for going to the bathroom without anyone following him.
Ace did actually feel bad for him, but that didn't mean he was going to let him go on some sort of a boyfriend hunt just because he wasn't next to him all the time.
He sighed before making his way to the door.
"It's ok, I'll check on him before I head off to the Iceland" He said.
He, Izou, Vista, Haruta and a few from the 16th Division was going to a close by Iceland too look for provision, normally Marco would come with, but of course that wasn't going to happened in the state he was in for the moment, which of course, got Marco in a pissy mood since he was bored out of his freaking mind.
After a quick check-up (and Marco had indeed escaped their shared room to go look for him, damn Thatch for leaving him alone), he went down to the lowest deck, that one under the sleeping quarters that was only used for the smaller boats that was used for restocking and missions.
It turned out the others had already got there, but they didn't question him being last, after all they all knew how Marco got when injured or sick, it happened rarely, very rarely, but when it did? Wow.
If anyone would tell someone outside the crew exactly how needy, cranky, and child like the First division commander could get, they would never believe them, hell they would probably laugh in their faces and put you on a psych ward!
"Hiya Ace, Marco's on the run again"? Haruta shouted when he got closer.
"Yeah, Thatch left him alone so he got away" Ace shouted back.
The small group all winced at that, they all knew leaving Marco alone when injured was a big, BIG mistake.
The only one that could make him stay put was Oyaji by giving him an order to stay calm for his own best, and everyone else's best as well, although since Ace and Thatch had promised to keep an eye on him he didn't thought it was necessary this time, guess he was wrong.
Next morning they docked at the Iceland, it was one of those inhabited Iceland's, it was one of the biggest in the new world and completely covered with jungle.
The only reason they choose to send 4 commanders was that the Iceland was known for the enormous extremely dangerous animals and poisonous plants.
Ace, who had the most experience with enormous animals from his childhood had been an obvious choice for this mission, Izou and Vista was mostly there too keep an eye on Ace, and Haruta had good knowledge for plants.
When night arrived they had found a good amount of food to bring back to the ship and after a long celebration Ace left the small group to do his humanly needs, he tried not to go to far from the others though, he had felt like someone was watching him ever since they left Dusk Iceland over 2 months ago, he hadn't told anyone since he didn't want to worry anyone, or worse, think he was crazy!
But he still couldn't shrug off the bad feeling in his gut, that told him that something bad was about to happened, and soon.
A twig broke somewhere to his right and he turned around fast, he stood completely still for a couple of minutes, scanning the aria for something unusual.
When he didn't see anything he shook his head, telling himself he was getting paranoid, it was probably just some animal, he told himself before walking back to camp.
Little did he know, that only a few meters into the woods, a man was standing, watching his every step "You look just like her…and soon we'll be together, Portgas…D…Ace…"
Normal POV, The moby dick, time skip 3,5 weeks!
It had been 3 weeks since that night, almost 4.
The group had returned around a week after leaving and had brought a good amount of supplies, Marco had been over the moon of happiness when he got to see his Ace again, Ace on the other hand had seemed…disturbed by something.
He hadn't said anything about it and no one wanted to push it, after all they knew Ace all too well, and if he didn't want to say he wouldn't, he'd tell when he was ready.
At least that's what everyone thought, the next day they had found Marco, looking like hell, he was completely destroyed.
It seemed like Ace had left in the middle of the night, leaving only a note, breaking up with Marco and leaving the crew, leaving everyone in complete chock.
Oyaji had taken the news almost as hard as Marco, but still kept it together for the crew, no one could understand why Ace would just leave, this was his home, his family!
Even if he said in the letter that they wasn't, the only one that actually felt MAD about Ace leaving was Thatch, he tried not to say anything in Marco's precense, since talking about Ace around him was the biggest of HELL NO for the moment, but he was pretty damn pissed of, how could he just leave like that?
Without even telling anyone`, leaving a LETTER? Breaking up with Marco in a letter, telling him and everyone else they weren't even FAMILY?
THAT was taking things TO FAR!
That HURT damn it!
Thatch shock his head angrily and continued his cocking, they would soon dock at an Iceland, they both needed new provisions and check up on the people living there as it was their territory.
He sighed and started making his way toward the first division commanders room, ever since Ace left he had refused to eat in the mess hall since it reminded him to much of Ace, no one dared to tell him off, they understood how he felt, heartbreak was never easy and this was the first time anyone had ever seen him with anyone at all, even Oyaji, and he had known Marco for a very long time.
The only people who actually dared to be close to Marco now a days, was the commanders and Oyaji, Marco had been a bit… okay, VERY emotional.
When he finally reached the door, he braced himself and knocked.
Ace's POV, 3,5 weeks ago!
The first thing he noticed was the darkness.
He winced as he felt a throbbing headache in the back of his skull and at first he thought this was some kind of really bad joke made by Thatch, he was probably hoping Ace would panic if he woke up handcuffed with sea prissonstone in a dark room, tsk, yeah right.
After a while though he started to feel enough was enough and decided to let the other know he'd been caught.
"OI THATCH, LET ME GO DAMN IT OR I'LL FRY YOUR SORRY ASS"!
He shouted.
When nothing happened he frowned, suddenly realization dawned on him as he remembered what happened before he got knocked out, and a feeling of dread filled his stomach.
Flashback!
He had gotten up from his and Marco's shared bed, Marco had stirred and frowned in his sleep at the loss of contact but calmed as Ace kissed his forehead. Ace had smiled at this, not believing his luck for having such a cute, loving man as Marco. He made his way upstairs and out on the deck, it was a calm and quiet night and he walked over to one of the few spots on the deck that couldn't be seen from the night watch spots, it had always been one of his favorite spots as it wasn't only protected from being spotted, it was very far away from the closest night watcher and it was hardly ever that any sound reached them. Ace smiled as he remembered the many times he and Marco had taken advantage of that fact.
He had never felt like this, so loved, of course he knew Luffy and Sabo loved him to the moon and back, and he loved them just as much, but this was different.
He was so lost in thought that he at first didn't notice the shadow that snuck closer to him, it wasn't until someone jumped him from behind that he even realized someone else was on the deck at all.
At first he thought one of the night watchers had decided to play a prank, but as the person whispered in his ear he froze.
"Now..you're finally mine…Portgas..d..ace…"
Then everything went black.
End of flashback
his eyes widened in horror as he realized that this was not a prank, Thatch had nothing to do with this, this was for real.
Ace's POV, time skip 3 months
I looked around the room for what felt like the 100.000th time, I was clearly in some kind of cellar, it was damp, had no windows, had almost no furniture's except the bed he was tied to, the only light came from a candle on the wall, there was also this smell, kind of like rotten meat, mud, sweat..
And I really hope that is not blood on the floor…
"I wonder for how long I have been here…3 months? More?" I thought as I stared up in the sealing, "Why isn't anyone coming for me?.. oh.. that's right…" I remembered the last time I screamed at the man that my crew would look for me, Marco would never stop looking until he found me and made the man pay for taking me from him, the man had simply laughed at me before placing a hand at my cheek, his face was so close I could almost taste his rotten breath, I would never forget what he said to me, it would haunt me forever.
"They won't, I made sure of it, and even if they would, no matter how hard they look ,they can never find you. From this day forward, you only belong to me, we will always be together my love, no one will take you from me, they don't love you, but i…I love you…and you… you WILL love me too… Portgas…D…Ace.."
He then kissed me hard, forced my lips open and stuck his Tung in before he left.
I wanted to puke, I hated myself for letting he kiss me, touch me, no one except Marco was allowed to do that, Marco…my Marco…why hadn't he showed up yet?
Was he looking?
What if he didn't come?
Did he even know where to look?
As my eyes closed I had come to a decision, I had to get help, and then I drifted to sleep.
Alright people, that was the first chapter, and the second will be uploaded within 24 hours.
Feel free to give feedback if you feel like it!
Here is somethings I feel like I should point out!
Age's
Ace: 19
Marco:32 (Yes, he is very young, the explanation will come later in the story)
Sabo: 18
Luffy: 14
Whitebeard: 56 (Explanation for the young age will come)
Teach does not exist in this story, because I hate him. A lot.
Also, Marco will not be a complete wimp in this story, he is totally badass and I'm not going to change that, he is just moody when sick or injured.
Feel free to ask anything at all if anything is unclear, I answer all reviews.
