(meh, need some action up in here)

Third Person POV

"Neh Dadan." Leo was sitting in the shack beside Dadan, while modifying a few of his arrow. A few months later since the boys moved out but they would occasionally come back to the shack to see either Dadan or Leo for medical help "What would it be like for you if you hadn't met the ASL?"

"Quiet!"

"Is that so?" she nods her head

"Of course! I need peace & quiet, looking after this family is hard as is!" she complained "But then again, they're what make it very interesting in my miserable life." she said with her eyes closed, she opened them & noticed that everyone was looking at her with puppy eyes

"Aw~ isn't that cute?" one of the bandits cooed

"Who knew the boss had a soft spot for kids." she glared at them

"I DO NOT!!" everyone laughed while Leo chuckled, he did at least a few tweaks in the current arrow he was working on when he heard Dogura screaming

"B-B-Boss! Boss, you have to see this!" Leo & Dadan look at each other before walking out, what they didn't expect was to see a glowing light in the northern sky

"What are you blabbering on about?!" she yelled

"Is that coming from the city?" Leo asked

"No! Its just before the city, the Gray Terminal! Its on fire!" their eyes widened

"Ace, Sabo & Luffy are there..." he whispered to himself, he ran back into the shack, grabbed his weapons before spreading his wings & flying off "Sil! Meet me there, see if you can sniff them out!!"

"I'm a feline! Not a canine!"

"Whatever! Just do as I say!" Leo noticed him roll his eyes before nodding, Leo hasn't really been to the Gray Terminal but only once. It was really a big dump & what really made it sickening was that people actually lived in there, they steal, they kill... all for a living. He had finally made it to the Terminal & his eyes widened at the sight

"Holy shit..." he breathed, they sight before him was horrible! The entire place was consumed in flames & in a distance he could see people trying to run from the fire "Who's horrible idea was this?!" he flew down & it was so hard to breath & see, it felt like hell. He coughed into his hand & looked everyone, trying to find the ASL "Ace! Sabo! Luffy! Where are you?!"

With Ace & Luffy, they were currently being held hostage because Bluejam finally lost his shit! He wanted Ace to tell him where he hid the loot so he could get his revenge on the nobles in the future. Just before Ace was going to, he heard someone call his name. He looked over & saw Leo skid to a stop just right in front of them

"LE--" they were cut off when the pirates covered their mouths & hid, Leo frantically looked around with a worried look before running off in a direction where he heard a noise

"No! Leo! Where are you going?!" Luffy cried out "We're here!! Turn around!!" but Leo was already to far for him to hear Luffy's call. Leo skid to a stop when he saw a whole crowd of people, crying desperately to get out of this living inferno

"Let me do this quick! !"

That huge blast took out a whole chunk of fire that led into the forest that led to the coast, Leo instructed them to get out & they didn't hesitate to leave. As soon as they were all gone, the fire spread like wild fire like but there was still a spec of space to run through. He left in search for the ASL again but still hadn't found them, that was when he heard a cry for help

"Someone! Anyone! Please help me! Don't leave me here!" a makeshift house had trapped a woman & a child so they couldn't get out without getting hurt "Please help us sir! If not me, then my child!"

"Just calm down ma'am, please stand back though!" she did, Leo took a running start & jumped through the flames & into the little building. He picked her up bridal style before throwing her out, he picked up the little child & was going to jump out as well but the beam above him broke just as he threw the child "ARGH!"

"Sir?! Are you alright?!"

"I'm fine...! Just go!" she was a little hesitant but left, Leo took a deep breath before throwing the beam off him & getting up. His back is probably burnt but he was fine other then that, he sniffed the air & smelt something. He turned around & saw barrels... full of explosive powder "... fuck..." it exploded with Leo still in the building

He slammed into the ground & something heavy landed on his right side, he cried out in & pain, he sucked in a breath again before weakly pushing those objects off. He sat up & straight but groaned as he felt his skin on his right side burn away & peel off, he slapped his hand on his eye & instead of feeling tears... he felt blood roll down his face

He tried getting up but he was too weak to even stand, he let his right arm go limp & tried pulling himself with his left arm. He had already given up from the lack of energy & oxygen so he just collapsed...

A man wearing a cloak had come across Leo's unconscious & injured body, he just gave him a look before picking him up & leaving that horrible place. He sat at the edge of the forest where he tended Leo's wounds, when they were secure, he left Leo unconscious but wrapped a different cloak around him

"With those kinds of wounds... it'll take a miracle for them to heal." he murmured to himself before leaving

(that's all I got fam, I apologize if its short)
