Violet started resetting the ship's course back to the Island where Crescent Village was stationed. Marking the point of their current location and the point of their next destination, she listed in her head the weather conditions and the sea's possible temperament. When she figured out how long it would take them to get back to the Island, she nodded. "Guys, it'll take us at least 11 days to get to Riley's village!" she called.

Riley winced. "Crap, we gotta get there faster!" he yelled.

"Riley, I can't control the weather or the sea's temper so we have to hope that our voyage goes well" Violet told him.

Riley stopped panicking, looking away from Violet with a faint blush. 'Damn, it's that feeling again. Why does this keep happening?!'

Violet blinked, a blush of her own spread across her face; Riley's shirt was unbuttoned, exposing his chest. 'Crap, this isn't helping me at all. It's always the same thing' She thought.

Liam happened to walk over to them. "Riley, Violet, we've got some big trouble here!" he yelled.

Riley and Violet, thankful for Liam's interruption for the time being, ran to see what was wrong.

Two men and a busty-looking woman had boarded the ship. The men were in grey dress shirts, dark jeans, black dress shoes and red pirate coats. Their brown hair was long and tied back. The woman work a red corset with black lace, dress trousers that were tucked in her black boots and she had a cigarette in her mouth. Her face was heavily made up and her blonde bangs were curled.

The oldest man looked over at Riley. "You Crystal Flame?" he asked.

"Yeah, why?" Riley replied.

"Then, you're coming with us. All of you. We collect treasure by selling punks like you to the World Government" the busty woman remarked.

"But you'll be joining our crew, Teenage Monster. You're too much of a beauty to be damaged by the World Government, it would be such a waste" the younger man added, grabbing Violet's face.

"Kōseki Kōseki no Adamant Fist!" Riley yelled, using his devil fruit powers to punch the man back. Adamant shards jetted out of his fist and into the man's face as hard as humanly possible.

The man picked out the adamant shards embedded in his face. He glared at Riley. "How dare you scar my beautiful face!" he snapped.

"I don't give a crap about your damn mug. Keep your mitts off my Navigator!" Riley snapped back, crackling his knuckles.

The oldest man withdrew his katana. He attempted to attack Riley but Allan, discreetly swallowing a red and green pill, quickly took out his machete and blocked it. "That won't be necessary. Your fight is with me" he remarked.

"Very well, Oni Doctor. So be it" the man replied, preparing to fight Allan.

The woman glared at Violet. "Well, Teenage Monster. Let's see if your bounty is just a joke" she taunted.

"With pleasure. Bear's Claw!" Violet remarked, striking the woman in a downwards motion with her nails. She smirked when crimson blood trickled out the scratch; her own nails were dripping with blood too.

"Why, you little bitch!" the woman cried. She ran to try and kick Violet in the head. "Mallet Pound!" she yelled.

Violet caught her leg with ease. "You've gotta be kidding me, that's actually the best you can do? Bull's Toss-up!" she shouted, throwing the woman up and back with her mighty strength.

The woman crashed into the barrier then got up. "I see that your bounty wasn't a joke, after all. You really are a worthy opponent, Teenage Monster. You really are a teenage monster among women. The fight would've been mine if I fought Gentleman Ninja instead of you" she relented, sitting on it.

"Coward. Take this! Monkey's Fall" Violet remarked, poking the woman so she fell into the sea. She watched the woman fall to her possible death. "Not much of a fight as I wanted it to be" she said to herself.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Riley and the young pirate/self-proclaimed bounty hunter were still fighting.

The man was panting heavily.
 'Man, this kid's really strong for his age. Of course! Rumour has it, among pirates and marines, that Crystal Flame also had the intimidating but less-known nickname 'Son of Fire Fist' because he is also the son of the former high-ranking Whitebeard Pirate Fire Fist. But Fire Fist was executed 15 years ago. So Crystal Flame must only be 15 years old or maybe older. What the hell was I thinking, challenging Fire Fist's bastard son? Clearly Crystal Flame is just as strong as his pirate father!' The man thought, fear spread through him.

Riley was definitely not holding back. "Kōseki Kōseki no Crystal Claws!" he yelled as his crystals formed animal-like claws on his hands so he could strike the man in two diagonal motions, leaving more scratches on his opponent's face.

"Crackling Finish!" The man growled then kicked Riley in the ribs.

Riley had already used his powers to cover his body with a crystal coating that was much stronger than any armour ever created so there wasn't even a dent or a bruise where his ribs were. "I see your attack was pretty pointless" Riley remarked.

"Damn it, you didn't even flinch, Crystal Flame. You really do live up to your bounty name and your other nickname, even though you're just a kid" the young pirate muttered.

"Kōseki Kōseki no Swordsman's Strike!" Riley yelled, his arms turned to crystal blades and he cut the man's stomach and spleen. He then grabbed the man's collar and lifted him up to his face. "Take your so called 'morales' with you and get lost!" He threatened, throwing the man overboard. He dusted his palms off. "No one touches my Nakama and gets away with it" he muttered to himself.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Allan glared at his opponent with a demonic look in his eyes. Every time the man tried to attack, Allan blocked it. "Doctor Style, Deadly Scalpels!" he yelled, throwing four scalpels at the man.

"What the hell?" the man gasped when three embedded in his torso.

"Counter Shock!" Allan shouted as he smashed his palm against his opponent, sending an electric course through his body. "Room!" he said darkly, the space became blue. He used his machete to cut off the man's limbs. He took out a scalpel and started cutting the man's flesh, causing him to cry like a little kid. "Shambles!" he remarked, rearranging the man who now looked peculiar since his limbs were in the wrong places.

Riley and Violet burst out in silent laughter. "Allan in Oni Doctor mode is so awesome!" they agreed.

Allan's room technique seemed to diminish as he returned to normal. Then he used shambles again to rearrange the man to normal, except with a few significant scars here and there. "Now you know why I am the Oni Doctor" he remarked.

Liam football-kicked the man overboard and into the sea with his very unfortunate crew mates. He then turned to Violet. "Now I understand why they called you 'Teenage Monster'" he chuckled.

"That bitch didn't put up much of a fight" Violet replied.

"Remind me not to get on your bad side, Vi" Riley remarked. He then turned to Allan. "Yours too, Allan" he added.

Allan smiled, ruffling Riley's hair. "I only become the Oni Doctor when I have to protect my nakama" he explained.

Liam sighed. "It's too bad. I didn't get to fight for now" he muttered. He stayed quiet for a moment. "Ok, who's hungry?" he asked.

"We are!" the others laughed in agreement.

They walked into the ship's kitchen together, the younger three had their arms slung around each other's shoulders.

Allan retrieved his medical book and Violet's map, compass and pencil from the table before following them with a smile.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Soon the gang were enjoying another dinner courtesy of Liam. This time it was a delicious teriyaki with stir-fry vegetables for the older males and Violet.

Liam had also cooked up a mixed meat platter for Riley. It was a rather large portion, seeing as Riley had the same type of appetite as his father and his uncle.

In the middle of eating his dinner, Riley fell asleep, his face planted in his food.

Liam had a 'what the hell' look on his face. "Stupid brat" he muttered.

"Riley? Are you dead?" Violet asked.

Allan checked Riley's pulse. "Hmm, interesting, he still has a pulse" he mused.

Soon Riley woke up, sitting up in his chair. He wiped away the meat chunks that had somehow caked onto his face. "Damn it. I fell asleep again" he said with no surprise.

"YOU FELL ASLEEP?!" Liam yelled. (A/N: If you remember what One Piece episode that's from, you're golden!)

"How can someone fall asleep when he's eating?" Violet asked.

"My dad did it, I think." Riley replied with his mouthful.

"Well, like father, like son" Violet muttered.

Liam whacked Riley upside the head. "Mind your manners, brat!" he snapped.

"Shut up, Liam! Sorry, Vi" Riley remarked as he wiped the food that he had unintentionally sprayed in Violet's face. Both of them were a bright red.

"Teenagers" Allan chuckled as he continued his reading.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"CRYSTAL FLAME, TEENAGE MONSTER, ONI DOCTOR, GENTLEMAN NINJA, COME OUT HERE AND SURRENDER OR FIGHT LIKE TRUE PIRATES!" a familiar voice boomed.

Riley and his friends appeared on deck to see that Callum had found them, a huge red random megaphone at his mouth.

"Stupid Marines, don't you ever cut us any slack?" Riley muttered, preparing to fight.

"And we're not freaking pirates, just travellers. There's a difference. Idiot" Violet remarked.

"I can't do that. You are the Son of Fire Fist Ace, after all. My father spent 15 years trying to find where you and your mother were hidden. And since I, Captain Marshall D. Callum, son of 'Blackbeard' Marshall D. Teach, Shichibukai of the World Government found you when he failed, I will not let you escape this time, Crystal Flame" Callum taunted, throwing the megaphone aside and prepared to fight Riley.

"Hate to disappoint you but I don't plan to be taken to the place you marines killed my father. He wouldn't want me to give up on my Nakama. And my name is Terry D. Riley, son of 'Fire Fist' Portagus D. Ace, the former Commander of Whitebeard's Second Division fleet!" Riley retorted, his body tensed to fight. He knew that Ace would be proud of him at this moment.

Soon Genji Mori jumped on board. He smirked when he saw Violet. "Well, the Teenage Monster definitely is as beautiful as her bounty picture. I bet her assets are bigger than they look" he remarked.

Liam frowned; the vein of irritation pulsated within him. He suddenly struck Genji upwards with his foot. "Never talk that way about a lady in my presence. You fight me, lowlife" he growled.

It was now obvious how much of Sanji's teaching of the Black Leg Style had been drilled into the 19 year old.

"Bring it, bring it on!" Genji remarked, getting into a fighting stance.

Riley and his crew are targeted by 'bounty hunters' but easily fight them off, Riley shows that he shares another thing in common with his dad and the marine captain Marshall D. Callum and Genji Mori catch up with them to fight Riley and Liam.
