Okay some of you have been asking what's would happen if the Whitebeard and the straw hats meet up and what has happened to Thatch and everything, so here it is…

Luffy is in an abnormally happy and chipper mood then what she's normally in, or have been in lately. Like a weight has been lifted from her shoulder and turned into ash. Robin knew the answer to that but wasn't giving anything away only that a break had been a good idea.
Currently the crew are all avoiding this Luffy, not used to her being this joyful; there is one crew member that always seemed to get picked on, no matter what the poor guy tried to do.

Chopper needed to get the dry leaves on the other side of the ship without Luffy seeing him, he had put the herbs there to dry while Luffy was still blissfully asleep but needed them. He hid the wrong away behind creates and the stairs, the ships mask and until Luffy spotted Copper and ran up to him arms wide and glomped him, a huge smile adoring her face while she fluffed up his fur, Usopp stared at the sight from his hiding spot.

"Now you might say being fluffy ain't any big deal." Luffy started to sing out gaining Brooks attention he laughed and pulled out his violin and started to play it. "In this world of Rin-Tin-Tins! But it seems like being fluffy, is all there is to him…."

"SHIP UP AHEAD!" Zoro's voice said from dozens of snail speakers around the ship, Luffy dropped Chopper and climbed the mask, good mood still in-tacked. She hugged Zoro from behind reaching around and grabbing the spyglass from his hands and wrapped her legs around his waist, making herself look like a monkey, she put the spyglass to her eye and peered out of it looking around humming under her breath before the glass landed on a whale like ship… "Would you get off!"

"Hey Zoro." Luffy hummed out putting the glass to his only eye and turning towards the whale ship. "I've seen that ship before…but I can't remember where."

Zoro sighed and took the glass from his eye and sat it down, once he had done that he pulled at Luffy's locked legs and sat her down.

"Donno…" Luffy pouted but not for long as she jumped out of the crow nest, slash, training room, she raced over to Usopp that had come out of hiding when Luffy was no longer in sight, she gripped his nose and pulled it, dragging him towards the lions figure head. Pulling him over the spicks, until they were at the front of the ship sitting on Sunny's head.

"Usopp have you seen that ship before?" Luffy pushed the back of Usopp's head forward and pulled his goggled over his eyes. Usopp sighed pulled away from Luffy and fixed his goggles up, after that he stared in the direction of where Luffy had shoved his head and looked a white whale ship…white whale…white…Usopp's jaw dropped and he let out a squeak.

"T-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-that's Wh-Wh-Wh-Whitebeards Ship!" He cried out waving his arms around and he accidently pushed Luffy from her sitting spot…

Few minutes ago on the Moby dick the watchers shouted out that they have spotted another pirate ship, the crew got out their weapons and kept an eye on the ship in the distance. Untrusting of pirate ships that are not part of their allies, because their captain is weak and pirates think that they can take on the Whitebeards.

Both pirate ships have stopped and are regarding each other, trying to see who they are, seeing if they are a threat. The Whitebeards even had more stress added to them because their stubborn captain has refused to 'hid' below deck, as he puts it.

"Why doesn't Marco fly over and check it out?" The random crew member gets hit over the head for his stupid question.

"Because we don't know how good they are, we have nothing on them…"

"So it's Marco, first division commander, nobody can beat him." Nobody knew what to say at this, Whitebeard laughed. Ace tumbled out from the door glaring at his shoe like it has personally wronged him.

"What took you so long?" Thatch asked coming up to him, Ace's eyes snapped to his glaring at him, Thatch gulped and backed away from his younger brother, the burns throbbing under the bandages.

"Couldn't find my shoes..." Ace grumbled walking over next to Marco who is personally enjoying this, after all the two prank masters are fighting each other and not on speaking terms, he is being blissfully left alone for once. "Whose ship?"

"We can't see the flag but the damn thing is colourful, if that helps." Marco said turning back to look at the ship, Ace peered at it leaning over and squinting hoping that would help, unsurprisingly it didn't.

"Why don't we just get closer?" Ace asked pulling back and looking over at Whitebeard. "We can get closer, get a good look at the flag and see who it is…"

"NO!" A few of the crewmembers snapped glaring at Ace, Ace held his hands up but kept his eyes locked on Whitebeards.

"It's not like we are going to engage in battle just by sailing a bit closer." He whined out leaning back on the railing looking casual beside for the smirk that's resting on his face. "And it's not like if we do end up engaging in battle we'll lose."

"GURARARARA, sail towards the ship, when we see the flag and see what's on it we stop." Nobody could talk against an order so they did just that, turning around just a bit and sailing towards the colourful ship.

"I SEE A FLAG!" Someone shouted from the crow's nest, some eyes stayed locked on the ship while others looked up at the watchman.

"Well what's it look like?" Ace pulled his out from one of his many pockets and pulled it open looking at the sunflower like ship.

"I see a…I see a straw hat on a skull and cross bones." The watcher said just as Ace spotted his little sister on the front of the ship and a panicked crew member that he recognized by his long nose, then Luffy is slipping and falling into the ocean.

Luffy felt her weight tilt one way too fast for her to do anything only let out a startled shout and soon she's falling from Sunny's head and with a splash tumbled into the water, her eyes wide as she sank down the depth holding her breath as best she could. Refusing to let salty water into her mouth and lounges, not when she found out that its Whitebeards ship, her brother is over on it…

Too soon for what Luffy would have liked, she gasped for air only for her body to be flooded with water making her gasp again and try to spit the water out. Her body cramping in on itself as she sank down soon only a few small bubbled left her nose and the corner of her mouth her body relaxing and shutting down. The last thing that Luffy took notice off before her eyes closed was green hair…Zoro's coming.

Ace is gripping the railing so hard that it's cracking; nobody said anything knowing that it would just piss him off and stress him out more. Everyone breathes a sigh of relief when the green haired guy and Luffy surfaced, a few on the straw hat ship are already there helping them up onto the deck.

"Come on…" Marco say turning into his devil fruit form and grabbing Ace between his talons, Ace complained during the flight to his little sisters ship. Someone fired a gun at Marco; the bullet went through his forehead. "That's was a nice shot."

"Must be her sniper."

"Think he'll join our crew?" Ace snorted and looked up at Marco.

"Get Luffy to join then the others will too." Marco laughed and let go of Ace, Ace yelled but balanced himself before he could face plant the grassy deck, Marco flew down turning human and landed next to Ace.

"Yo!" They both said to the stunned crew, Ace looked around and spotted Luffy still spread eagle on the deck, he walked up to her and kicked her in the side.

"Ouch, why'd you do that, Ace?!" She shouted rubbing the spot and glaring up at Ace, that is until it fully clicked that it's Ace. With a huge grin she jumped him and wrapped her arms around his body. "ACE!"

The three straw-hats that hadn't met Luffy's older brother just stared at him.

"Luffy's bro shorter than I thought he would be." Franky commented, Brook was eyeing him.

"He has freckles, yohohohoho!" Robin smiled behind her hand, before turning to Marco.

"Please meeting you Marco the phoenix, first division commander of the Whitebeard pirates." Marco nodded, a light blush on his cheeks, he knew her, knew Robin very well in fact. Robins smile widened. "Mr. Marco if you would like we can…"

"No it's fine!" Marco said rushing, Robin giggled and turned away. "You didn't say that you were part of straw-hats crew."

"That's true, but you also didn't say what crew you were in."

"How do you two know each other?" Sanji asked.

"We met each other on the last island." Robin said, Sanji sighed and watched Marco with a snake eye, keeping him under a watchful eye, he will never touch his beautiful, Robin-chwan or Nami-swan or Luffy-chan, if he can help it.

"So are you going to propyl intrudes me to your crewmembers that I haven't met?" Ace asked his little sister, Luffy grinned and grabbed her brother's hand dragging her over to Robin first.

"Nico Robin, my bother Portgas D. Ace, Franky, Ace, Brook, my brother Ace." Luffy said dragging Ace along to meet the three of them. They did their own kinds of greetings before a shadow over came the ship, looking up they found the Moby Dick towering over Sunny.

"Get your asses onto the ship." Thatch shouted out looking down at them, Zoro and Franky roped Sunny to the Moby Dick as everyone boarded Whitebeards ship. Everyone greeted each other before a party is under way.

It's night when Thatch, Luffy, Ace, Marco and Nami are sitting close to each other. The tension between them was thick.

"So Nami…why is it that Luffy is in this?" Ace asked handed the orange haired girl Thatch's porno book, Luffy leaned over to look at it and a smile broke across her face.

"I was modelling the new bathing suits; it's not a porn book but a bathing suit book. They paid me a lot of money and I could pay off my dept in one go." Luffy said, Nami eyed some of the poses that Luffy was doing and could guess where Ace had got the porn book idea from.

"You mean it's not a porn book?" The three males asked together, Nami and Luffy stared at them before laughing out loud. Then Luffy really looked at Thatch…she knows she has seen him somewhere before but can't remember where.

"What?" Thatch asked, a little scared at such a close up of Luffy suddenly; Ace didn't even have time to yell at Thatch for being that close to his sister.

"I think I've seen you somewhere before…" Luffy said pulling at Thatch's cheeks and squishing them together before messing up his hair. "Nami…I've met him somewhere before…"

Nami looked between them Marco had an amused smirk on his face, Thatch looked like he wanted to cry and Ace looked ready to burn Thatch into nothing. Nami looked over at Robin with a raised eyebrow and pointed a thumb at Thatch, Robin nodded and Nami soon laughed. So Thatch is the reason that Luffy has been in an overly happy mood and from the way that Robins been acting she's been in a good mood too. Looks like the Whitebeard pirates know how to handle their equipment, with that in mind Nami wrapped her arms around Ace's neck, acting like the drunk fool, she's only had half of what she normally drink so she's acting.

"Ace…" She mumbles into his back, Ace has turned stiff as a board feeling all the curves of Luffy's navigator in his back, her hands trail down him chest and her lips pull the lob of his ear into her mouth and she nibbled on it. Marco watched this display quite amused…

"AH! You're that guy from the bar!" Luffy shouted out, looking pleased at herself that she remembered, the shout snapped Ace out of the daze that the devilish Nami had put him in, he didn't get the chance to burn Thatch to the crisp when his asleep. Nami stared down at him before turning her eyes towards Marco.

"Help my carry him to an empty room and I'll drop all dept that you have built up from the gambling that you've lost against me." Nami said, Marco was all too happy to help Nami out he closed the door in time to see Nami pull out some ropes and sea stone cuffs. He had started to walk back to the deck when Robin bumped into him, the sexual tension between them snapped then and Marco pinned the women against the wall before dragging her off to his empty room.

Meanwhile Luffy and Thatch are staring at each other, one in childish glee the other in a fuck-my-life. Luffy has sat herself in Thatch's lap facing him, Thatch is trying to control what little self-control he has left.

"Luffy get off me…"

"No."

"Please…"

"No."

"Ace is going to kill me if he sees us like this."

"No he won't."

"Yes he will."

"Nah-ah!"

"Yeah-huh."

"Nah-ah."

"Yeah-huh."

"Nah-ah!"

"Yeah-huh."

"Nah-ah."

"Yeah-huh."

"Nah-ah!"

"Yeah-huh."

"Nah-ah."

"Yeah-huh."

"Nah-ah."

"Ye…" Luffy smashed her lips into his, her hands balled into his white shirt, when she pulled away only a thin sting of control is left.

"We promised that the next time we met we would…" And it snaps, Thatch stood up, Luffy's legs wrapped around his body, his hands are under her butt, he gave a playful squeeze as they walked past Zoro who watched them go while he tried to keep himself from attacking Sanji in a passionate embrace.

The next morning Marco and Ace bumped into each other, Ace's hands still have bruises on them and Marco have a very gloating face on.

"I love devil fruit powers." Marco said with a grin, Ace gave him a questioning look. "Robin can make doubles of herself."

Ace hit Marco in the back before wincing.

"What happened to you anyway?" Ace flushed red and looked away.

"Umm…nothing much…" Marco raised an eyebrow and stared, Ace knew he was looking at all the marks on his body and the finger nail scratchers in his back. "Nami's a wild one…"

Marco laughed and they walked into the kitchen finding both their lovers sitting together and talking rapidly, when they noticed the boys they both smirked in a way that made them both blush. They were not sure if they wanted to go sit over their once they grabbed their plates of food, but they did, if they could do that to them in bed then they have no chance of betting them in a battle any kind of battle.

"Zoro and Sanji made up last night." Nami said turning back to what they must have been talking about before, Robin hummed, speaking of them the two males turned up and sat down next to them, Chopper is talking to the nurses and Franky hasn't been seen since he came onto the Moby dick, most likely checking the ship out, Usopp is talking with Brook and a few other people.

It's around mid-afternoon that everyone is awake enough to notice that a couple of people are missing, one division commander and one captain.

"Has anyone seen Luffy?" Usopp asks looking around, looking for his captain, Ace froze and looked around searching for the yellow straw hat or the ridicules hair style. He didn't spot either of them and ran to his friends room slamming the door open and found an empty bed…they are not here.

"THATCH! LUFFY!" Ace screamed out running around the Moby dick.

Luffy and Thatch looked up from under the red blanket towards the door, Luffy giggled and shifted her hips again making Thatch groan.

"Sounds like Ace is looking for us."

"Should we stop?"

"Shi shi shi." Luffy answered him by biting his shoulder.

"Luffy, if Ace finds us like this he's going to really kill me." Luffy pulled away and looked up at Thatch with a normal face, not playfully, or idiotic, or even series.

"You really want to stop?" Thatch glanced down at what he could see and put his head onto her shoulder and breathed in.

"No."

"Good, besides, I can handle Ace, so I'll protect you." Thatch pulled back a bit and laughed, before crashing her into a kiss. "And it's not like he'll find us on Sunny, Moby dick is huge."

Breakfast the next day is interesting to say the least, at some point during last night Thatch ended up in his own bed and Luffy in the crow's nest. He dragged Luffy to his own room and made sure that his little sister didn't disappear again. At the moment, Ace is sitting next to Luffy who's sitting across from Thatch, she would glance at him in different ways and he would grin, Ace however didn't see it, everyone else saw it but the overprotective brother. Robin and Marco sat down next to Thatch, they spotted it right away.

"So Thatch what have you been up to for the past 24 hours?" Thatch turned a bright red and his eyes landed on Luffy, Luffy meanwhile had a huge smile on her face while she bit into a roll. Nami came up and sat next to Ace, she saw the interaction between Thatch and Luffy as well.

"After-glow?" She asked, Robin nodded her head.

"Ace…" Luffy said, Ace looked her way right away.

"Hmm?"

"Thatch and I are dating, so if you hurt him in any way you're going to be in a lot of pain and I'll never talk to you again." Everyone in the gallery stopped and looked at the straw hat captain, Thatch had his cheek dyed in a dark red while Luffy stared at her brother.

"D-dating?" Ace chocked out, Luffy nodded her head. "W-when?"

"Last night." Ace was going to say something more when Luffy grinned cheekily. "Sides we are going to have to come back, Nami never lets go of what's hers, and Robin and Marco look like they have been enjoying each other."

"…" With that said Luffy stood up hugged her brother and jumped across the table sitting in Thatch's lap.

"Not like you can stop the pirate king anyways." Luffy said… "All kings need their queens."

Ten years later Luffy walked down the Moby dick her brother holding her arm, a huge smile is on her face as she looked at the front.

"Never thought this would happen."

"Me neither."

"But I did tell you." With that Luffy kissed Ace on the cheek and went to stand to the side while Ace walked up to Nami, he glanced over at Marco and Robin who have their two year old boy in their arms then over at his little sister who's a little more round then should be but lets it go, he knows that the pirate king will never be stopped from getting whatever she wants and that something was Thatch. Know it's his turn, he looked up at the old man, and Whitebeard is still alive, after the wonderful work that Chopper and Franky have done for him.

Ace turned his eyes once again back to his beautiful wife and smiled softly at her, Luffy did warn him that Nami never lets go of what she thinks is hers, but…he grabbed her hand and pulled her towards Izo. He grinned at them both.

"Gol D. Ace do you take Nami to be your un-lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, till death do you part?"

"Yeah!"

"Nami do you take Fire Fist Ace to be your un-lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, till death do you part?"

"I do." Sanji stepped forward, tears in his eyes and handed the ring over to the both of them, well he can't say anything after all his swordsman will get a little jealous and pissed. They put the lovely rings on, that Luffy found in the treasure that Roger left behind, it was in a small black box with a note, Roger was going to ask Rouge to marry him but never got the time to do it so she thought that she's give the rings to Ace and Nami.

"I know pronounce you as husband and wife for all that bear witness here today!" Izo shouted out. "You may kiss the bride!"

Ace grabbed Nami around her lower back and pulled her into his body, he bent her over just that tiny bit back and kissed her, they didn't get to see any cake and nobody saw the lovely bride and groom for the rest of the day and the next until diner where something finally makes sense in Ace's head.

"You and Luffy were gone for a whole 24 hours, like me and Nami just know!" He shouted pointing a finger at them; Luffy placed her chin in her hand and looked at her brother with a grin.

"It's great, huh?"

It's Un-lawfull because they are pirate :D
