Cleo Captured?! Ivan vs Senshi

The New World, Onboard the Laughing Reggie
''A dark figure crouched behind a barrel, waiting for the best opportunity to strike. It's target was asleep just above it. All the figure needed was the two men standing in front of the stairs to move, then it could complete it's task.''

Dante: Hey Jackie ive been wondering for a long time now

Jackie: What is it? that you have a brain?

Dante: Hahahah very funny and no i know i have brain otherwise i wont be talking right now, Anyways ive been wondering why does Cleo have a teddy bear picture on her door? i mean she doesnt look like the teddy bear loving type

Jackie: Yeah, And you dont look like the bright type of a guy, I doubt theres something in that empty shell

Dante: Hey watch it pal if this was morning ide beat you up.

''The figure formed a rock in it's hand. It lobbed the rock and it landed on the opposite end of the hall.''

????'s Thoughts: Come on.... Go investigate.

Dante looked at the end of the hall and looked back at Jackie

Dante: Ya heard that? sounded like a rock at the end of the hall

Jackie: Are you sure its not your rock hard brain?

Dante: Wanna die?

Jackie: I dont know is it sunday?

Dante: Its the middle of the night dummy

Jackie: Hehehehe im just kiddin i also heard that we better make sure its not a cocroach or the ladies will freak haha

''Dante and Jackie walked to the end of the hall to the source of the sound. Once they were away from the stairs, the figure disappeared. It reappeared in front of a door with a teddy bear on it. The figure disappeared again, reappearing inside the room. It looked over at Cleo, sleeping soundly in her bed. The figure crept over and pulled out a length of rope. She covered Cleo's mouth, startling her awake. Cleo's scream was muffled by the hand.''

????: I won't hurt you. If you just come queitly, no harm will come to you.

Cleo stopped screaming and was quiet then Dante and Jackie were walking back to th stairs after they investigated the sound of the rock

Dante: A rock......It was just a stupid rock and i stepped on it and now my foot hurts too bad Cleos asleep now guess ill have to patch it up myself

Jackie: Hahahaha your like a 5 year old that got a booboo your so childish hahaha

''Dante punched Jackie in the face angerly and kept walking to the stairs and evantually entered his room while Jackie got up with his nosebleeding and also went to his room. The figure gently pulled Cleo out of bed. ''

????: I'm going to uncover your mouth. Please don't scream.

Once Cleo mouth was uncovered she took her glasses from her pocket and looked at the figure

Cleo: What do you want from me?

The figure took the rope and started tying Cleo's wrists behind her.

????: It's not what I want with you. It's what my captain wants with yours.

''The figure tied the ropes tightly, but they were gentle and didn't hurt Cleo at all. The figure led Cleo toward a window and opened it.''

Cleo: Wait. To make it easier for both of us, there's a ship near the side of the ship that we forgot to get back on the ships deck. You can use it.

The figure looked at Cleo.

????: You're being quite helpful. Why?

Cleo: Cause i just want to have somewhere to sleep, Its the middle of the night you know.

''The figure nodded and the two left Cleo's room. They got into the small boat and rowed away. Not too long afterwards, they arrived on another boat. This one was slightly smaller and green. The figure untied Cleo's wrists as a rope ladder was thrown down.''

????: Up you go.

''Cleo climbed the ladder and got onboard the boat and looked around and back at the figure. Several more figures gathered around Cleo. Then One tall figure with short hair walked up.''

????: Welcome to my ship. My name is Roronoa Senshi. If you cooperate, no harm will come to you.

Cleo: I will cooperate on one condition and that condition is a place to sleep without any noise please thats all i ask.

Vearth, the figure that captured Cleo, nodded and led Cleo down to the brig.

The Laughing Reggie, The Next Morning
Everyone except Ivan were awake and Dante went to Ivan who was on top of the mass and tried to wake him up at the end he dropped him down and Ivan hit the floor with his head but didnt react he then woke up and looked around and saw his worried crew

Ivan: Why is everyone so blue this morning?

Susan: Ivan its Cleo this morning i went to wake her up but she wasnt in her room or anywhere else

Ivan got up and looked at Susan surprised 

Ivan: What? How? Dante and Jackie were on guard last night right?

Ivan then looked at both Dante and Jackie with an angry look they both looked away while he grabbed both of them by the heads and knocked them together

Ivan: YOU DUMBASSES HOW DID YOU LET THAT HAPPEN WHAT DID YA DO FALL ASLEEP ON THE JOB OR WHAT?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dante looked at Ivan with a lump on his head while Jackie was unconsios

Dante: Well ya see Ivan there was a rock and i stepped on it i got hurt and went to my room to patch it up but fell asleep accidentaly and i punched Jackie in the face making him bleed and i guess he also fell asleep funny story right?

Ivan punched Dante in the face and looked back at the others

Ivan: Anyone knows what could have happened to her?

''There was a sound on deck. Everyone ran to investigate. They found a small note and a drawing attached to an arrow. It looked like it had been fired from a great distance.'' Nomako took the note and looked at and then at the others

Nomako: Guys i think you should see this

Nomako showed everyone the note and what was written in it.

"I know that you will not fight a woman if you can't help it. But I am not giving you a choice. Either fight me, or never see your doctor again. If you agree, meet me on the next island in the center of the forest. If you do not, Cleo get's to go home with Rei, My hellhound. Signed Roronoa Senshi"

The picture was a photo of Cleo. It showed her laid out on a thin matress, her hands tied behind her and her ankles bound. There was also a piece of tape over her mouth. Ivan was holding the note in his hands and was outraged as he tore the note in half

Ivan: Nomako you know the island she means right?

Nomako: Yes i do its not far will get there quickly

''After a while the crew reached the island and got off the ship and saw Roronoa Senshi with her crew. Rei was standing next to her, Cleo on his back. She was still tied up and gagged, but she appeared to be unharmed.'' Ivan looked at Senshi angerly

Ivan: What do you want? why did yu take her?

Senshi: I wanted to fight you. I know you wouldn't fight me unless I gave you a reason. So I took your friend. I promise you though, she has not been harmed in any way.

Ivan: Well i dont usually hit a woman, But since youve taken my friend as a hostage ill have to make an acception.

Senshi: No matter who wins, at the end of this fight, Cleo will go free, unharmed. I swear on my brothers' lives.

Ivan: Very well ill let you do the first move.

''Senshi immediantly formed a large spiked hammer and lobbed it at Ivan. As she attacked, the two crews moved out of the way. Cleo looked over and waved, giving them a sign that she was alright. As Senshis attack was about to connect to Ivan he unsheathed his sword and stopped the spiked hammer with it and then looked at Cleo''

Ivan's Thoughts: You wont stay tied for long i wont fogive her for this but i know that she is keeping her word

Ivan then swinged his sword and made the spiked hammer get out of his way and he then swinged his sword back at Senshi and stabbed the growned and sliced a little of her hair from the front

Ivan: Damn it this is harder than i thought.

Senshi drew her sword and held it before her.

Senshi: To give you a sporting chance.

Ivan got up and pointed his sword at senshi

Ivan: Bring it.

Senshi: Ittoryu.....

She got into a stance.

Senshi: Doragonsureiyā!! (Dragon Slayer)

''She launched herself at Ivan at an impossible speed. He barely had time to bring his sword up. The attack was so powerful, his sword nearly broke. Ivan was bleeding a little from his chest he then looked at senshi and pointed his sword at her''

Ivan: This sword wont break so easily its made from metal stronger than steel, This black blade has more capabilities than what it apears to have, Heres an example, Dark Moon Knight, Eternal Night Valley

Ivan sheathed his sword and quickly ran at senshi in great speed and when he reached her he unsheathed his sword and swinged it and caused an air thrust to blow through senshi yet she wasnt harmed but when she looked behind her half the trees were cut down by the air thrust from Ivans sword

Ivan: I told ya it was just an example that why i didnt hit you.

Senshi: Well.... I do have to admit, pretty impressive. Hmmmmm.

''She got into a familiar stance. She had seen her brother do it several times.''

Senshi: Ittoryu Sanjuroku Pound Ho

''The blade of like shot toward Ivan like a cannon. He tried to dodge, but it his his sholder, sending him flying into a tree. Everyone stared.''

Burakku: Not even I know that trick.

Sharpshooter: It's a trick her brother Zoro uses.

Laura: She's stronger then we thought.

Ivan got up while he was bleeding from his forhead he cleaned the blood off with his sleeve and looked at Senshi

Ivan: Dark Moon Knight, Eclipse

Ivan then jumped back and stabbed the ground with his sword and then ran towards Senshi while his sword was still in the ground making it hit up he then quickly pulled it up once he did that the swords black blade was dark red and was sending a sword slash but before it fired Ivan twisted the sword making the sword slash look like a drill and was then fired at Senshi, the attack was too quick for Senshi she had to block it with her sword but her defense broke but the attack was moved a little to the side it hit her shoulder and caused her to bleed the sword slash didnt stop though it continued on and reached the water when it did it drilled through it and caused a small whirlpool that nearly sucked the ship but it had stopped shortly after it was made Ivan looked at Senshi with an angry look

Ivan: You made me use it and i didnt mean to miss this time guess you really are strong, its been long since someone had been able to change that attacks direction.

Senshi: You might want to be careful. You nearly hit Cleo.

''Sure enough, the trail of destruction left by Ivan's attack nearly crossed paths where cleo knelt on the ground. it took him a minute to realize that the dog had yanked her out of the path of the attack. Ivan looked at Senshi with a serious look''

Ivan: Arent you the one who moved the attack to the side and if so why did your hellhound save her if he would have been the one that wouldve eaten her if i didnt come here i guess your not what you apear to be so tell what do you want from me and this whole fight?

Senshi: I'm here because I wanted to test my strength. I knew you wouldn't fight me if I didn't give you a reason. Besides, I never said Rei would eat her.

Senshi then launched at Ivan. Ivan blocked her attack with her sword and tried to pull her back

Ivan: How do you know that i wouldnt fight unless i had a reason?

Senshi avoided Ivan's attempt and continued striking.

Senshi: i saw the way you fought during The War. Not to mention i heard about your encounter with Bianca Blade. You needed a reason to fight a woman, so I gave you one.

Ivan: Bianca? yes i did encounter her twice once at sabaody and second at the war since she was a woman i didnt hit her or fight her seriously but that was at sabaody before i knew what she did

Ivan then pulled Senshi and looked at her pointing his sword at her

Ivan: Before i knew she was Nova Blades sister and that she didnt do anything to try and save him from execution she was his sister and she didnt even try to save him why because of just a job it was her brother and she decided to stay back and watch thats not what you do when apart of your family is in need of help.

Senshi: I know if it had been Zoro on that platform, or Yoro, I would have hung the consequences and saved him. He's my brother. Family comes before a job. Garp knew that when Ace was being executed and let Luffy hit him. Bianca didn't even do that.

Ivan: Your right she didnt but i know she wanted to she regreted not saving him shes not like them shes different and that i know, now how about we continue our fight?

Senshi then laughed.

Senshi: How can we when your sword is in my hand?

''Sure enough, Senshi now had two swords, both of the points a hairsbreathe from his bare chest. Ivan looked surprised and didnt understand what happened''

Ivan: How did you?

The devil spawns were just laughing.

Kapenta: She distracted you.

Ishi: She used a disarming technique that you wouldn't notice.

Victoria: And now you've lost.

Ivan: I need to focus more when im talking and..........

Ivan turned to the devil spawns 

Ivan: WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN I LOST IM STILL STANDING ARENT I!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and besides i dont fight with just a weapon.

Senshi smiled and lowered the swords.

Senshi: This otta be interesting. Mind if I hold onto this?

She twirls Ivan's sword.

Ivan: Hey watch it that sword was once my fathers sword i cant lose it its too valuble to me i guess ill have to take it back

Ivan took of his hat and threw to Susan to hold it for him she wore it on her head while Ivan was ready to use his next attack

Ivan: Bandage Mummy

Ivan started to get surounded by bandages and at the end he had an apearance of a mummy once he openned his eye it was a red dot with a black area surounding it

Ivan: And now busoshoku haki and Bandage Tsunami

Ivan then started to spread into many bandages and was charging at Senshi like a tsunami with his busoshoku haki it was as hard as steel before he reached Senshi he was suddenly cut many times Ivan then turned back to normal and looked at Senshi

Ivan: How the hell did you do that without moving?

Senshi stood agasped.

Senshi: Ummmmm. It...wasn't me. It was him.

She points with Ivan's sword directly behind him. Behing Ivan stood Magarani D Grim only without his white clothing but with new grey colored clothes

Ivan: Grim? your alive how? it cant be you died

The grey Grim laughed an then pointed his scythe at Ivan

Grave: Im not Grim im his brother Grave and im back from the dead to roam this land once more

Ivan: What?

Grave: You see i brought Grim back from the dead using my devil fruit ability and so i did bring back to life using my own life and as a result of that Grim came back from the dead but i was still apart of him after the years i grew stronger and learned what Grim learned and i have taken over his body after he died so now say hello to me cause im gonna wreck this place apart and you along with it.

Senshi: Ugh. I hate zombies. Hey Ivan, you want this?

She holds up his sword, hilt out so he could grab it.' Ivan grabbed his sword and looked at Senshi

Ivan: Thanks Senshi

Grave: Zombie? me a zombie? i know im back from the dead but that doesnt make me a real zombie now how about you two crews come along with me quietly or else.

Senshi shook her head.

Senshi: Hell no. Rei, release Cleo. We will need as much help as we can get.

''He gently sliced through the ropes binding Cleo. She stood up and ripped the tape off her mouth.''

Cleo: Finally i can breath took you long enough it wasnt very comforting but atleast i got some sleep

Everyone: YOU WERE ASLEEP THIS ENTIRE TIME?!!!!!

Grave: Im guessing you two crews wont do as i say very well then youll regret that

Grave teleported over the two crews and twisted his scythe around and around repeatedly then grabbed it and pulled it back then pushed it forward sending a powerfull air thrust slicing all the trees getting caught in the attack after the smoke cleared the two crews saw the island being nearly cut in half and Grave standing on the other side

Grave: This island is too weak to hold this battle how about i make this more interesting

Grave put his hand on the ground teleported the entire island along with the two crews high into the sky

Grave: This island will hit the ground in atleast 20 minutes if you beat me ill teleport you back to the ground if not then bye bye.

Senshi: Good. Ivan, temporary truce til we kill this guy. What do you say?

Ivan: Sounds fair enough.

Senshi smiled and her crew prepared for battle, weapons drawn and powers activated. Grave laughed and teleported behind Senshi and prepared to slash her but stopped once Ivan swinged his sword at him, Grave teleported from them and looked at everyone

Grave: Two crews against one person thats unfair now is it hehehehe how about the captains fight me alone unless you want your time to get decreased by 17 minutes.

''Senshi immediantly pales. She puts up her hand and her crew, reluctantly, backs off. Ivan notices, with contemped, that they herd Cleo with them.''

Senshi: Fine. Prepare to be skewered Corpse Breath.

Grave: This is gonna be fun

Grave teleported behind Senshi and prepared to slash her again Ivan was going to attack Grave once more but Grave teleported behind Ivan and swinged his scythe at Ivans back Ivan quickly stopped the scythe with his sword and looked at Senshi

Ivan: Little help.

''Senshi sheathes her sword and morphs. Her arms wrap around Graves and sends him crashing into a tree and off of Ivan.''

Senshi: Better?

Ivan: Yeah thanks

Grave got up and looked at the two as he pulled his scythe backwards and then pulled it back forward sending an air thrust at Ivan and Senshi the attack didnt hit them but the ground and made dust around them not allowing them to see then Ivan saw Grave infront of Senshi and his scythe close to her he quickly ran to her and pushed her to the side Senshi then saw Ivan getting sliced in the back by Graves scythe and started bleeding

Grave: You stood infront of my attack to save her how heroic.

Senshi: Baka... Why'd you do that?

She launched a Spiked Hammer at Grave and rushed to Ivan's side. Ivan endured the pain on his back and stood up holding his sword while breathing deeply

Ivan: This hurts more than i thought it would.

Senshi: Baka. That's bad. Worse than the one on my stomach.

Ivan: Its not.....that..bad im still standing arent i...........and besides i got worst and this wont kill me

Cleo then looked at Ivans wound and had a worried look

Cleo: Oh no Ivan has a deep wound on his back it needs to be taken care of quickly otherwise who knows what would happen his other scars a bad enough but because of that wound he could die i have to treat him quickly.

ishi grabbed hold of the doctor.

Ishi: I can tell they're bad, but we can't interfere. We must wait until we're safe and back on the ground, then we can tend to respective captians.

Cleo understood the situation so she waited with the others, While Ivan was enduring the pain his vision started to get weak

Ivan: No not this again, This is just like the last time i had a wound like this one

Grave: 16 minutes and we crash.

Senshi: Shut up.

She started turning red, activating her anger levels.

Senshi: Ivan-san, You gonna be alright to fight?

Ivan: I didnt go down when i was sliced in the chest i wont go down here either so yes i can still fight but i dont know for how long.

''She held out her hand to him, energy flowing into him. His wound closed.''

Senshi: That will last until this island is back safely in the ground. which will be in about 15 minutes.

Ivan: Thanks now lets get this over with quick

Grave: Finally now come and get me.

''Bad choice of words. Senshi launched at Graves and pounced on him. She gripped him tight, hoping to prevent him from slipping away.''

Senshi: Give up Corpse Breath.

She started punching him back and forth. Grave simply smiled and then teleported behind Senshi and grabbed her by her neck and started strangeling her

Grave: Your an annoying one

Ivan then came from behind Grave and grabbed him from his hood and smashed him to the ground but didnt let go he then smashed him and again repeatedly until Grave was able to break free and teleport away from him  Grave then looked at Ivan while his face was revealed, Grave face was actually Grims face it apeared as a normal face only its left side was completely burned and was dark red while his eye was white with no pupil, His right eye was red and had a large scar on its with no eyebrow Grave put his hood back on and looked at Senshi and Ivan

Grave: What have i done to you brother? i turned you into a monster im sorry, But im afraid thats not my problem since your dead and all hehehe

Ivan: That low life bastard.

Senshi: Yeah.... I almost feel sorry we have to kick his ass. But I'll get over it.

Ivan: Yup now cmon lets finish this we dont have much time

Grave: Im waiting.

''Red energy pulses around Senshi's fists. When she punches Grave THIS time, he can't teleport away. Her punches hit and he starts to bleed. Grave got up while bleeding and looked at Senshi''

Grave: Youve found it? how?

Senshi: You put the island down gently, and I'll tell you. If not...

''She kicked Graves with the same energy. a loud crack is heard as his ribs snap. Grave got up once more and laughed he then put his hand on the ground and teleported the island back to its place''

Grave: There now tell me how did you know?

Senshi: The thing is..... I didn't. This energy just came to me.

She punched him hard in the gut, knocking his breath out, then kicked him in the head, effectivly knocking him unconsious.

The energy stayed with her as she turned to Ivan.

Senshi: You alright?

Ivan: I think though im kinda feeling dizzy.....Maybe i need.....A-a rest

Ivan fell unconsious on the ground at the same moment Grave got up and teleported onto the mass of the devil spawns ship and looked at everyone

Grave: Hehehehe that attack was strong enough to make me have a breath taking moment i cant teleport if im not breathing hehe maybe im defeated but your friend Ivan is as good as dead

''Grave then teleported away from the area. Senshi scooped up Ivan and turned to his crew.''

Senshi: I understand if you don't trust me, but Ishi is the best surgeon. She can save Ivan if you let me take him onto my ship for healing. I'll let Cleo help.

The Alpharess pirates agreed to Senshi's offer.

Shifting Tide infirmiry, An Hour Later
''Ivan woke up on his stomach. He felt the bandages across his back and he saw Cleo holding his hands. His innicial joy of seeing her safe was quashed by the sight of a rope around her waist that was attached to the wall. She was still a hostage.''

Ivan: Ah damn.....Is me fainting counting as losing? I mean seriously i had a large wound on my ba-It still hurts a little.

Cleo smiles and shakes her head.

Cleo: Senshi said your fight was interupted, so once you're fully healed it will continue.

Senshi: I may be a pirate, but I do have honor.

Ivan: Do we have to continue the fight? i mean wasnt it enough you defeated the guy i couldnt?

Senshi: I thought you wanted to, considering I kidnapped your friend here. You told me i would pay. I thought continuing the fight would let you have your chance.

''It was odvious by now that Senshi regretted kidnapping Cleo. She just didn't know how to show it. Ivan turned around and sat on the bed ''

Ivan: Im getting too old for this even though im just 32 i still feel old for this kind of stuff especially with a big wound on my back.

Senshi: You're not old. You've just seen too much. Believe me. I'm 17 but I feel older sometimes.

Ivan: Seen too much? You dont know how many things ive seen in my life that i regret seeing.

Senshi: I could guess.

She looks down and shuffles her feet.

Ivan: I guess you could but one thing i cant bare to forget and thats my dads execution it was something that no son wanted to see happen to his father.

Senshi sighs.

Senshi: Harsh. I guess I'm lucky. I don't even remember my parents.

Ivan: Anywho i cant fight anymore even if you do have Cleo as a hostage i dont think you wanna keep it that way from what ive seen.

Senshi smiles.

Senshi: I'm that readable?

Ivan: No i just know a guilty look when i see it.

Senshi: Damn....

''She reached into her boot and pulled out a small knive. She walks over to Cleo and slices the rope binding her to the wall.''
