NO POV

Kai struggled in his chains as Peaches did too. Shortly after they were captured the two were chained up and thrown inside a closet. They lost track of time, but they believed it was now day time.

Kai: Any luck pal?

Peaches shuck his head. They had put the monkey in sea prism handcuffs while they had Kai in regular shackles. Believing that they dont have to waste a pair on a kid like Kai. The door opened and in walked Lucci.

Lucci: Your still kicking, come we have matters to attend too.

Lucci grabbed Kai and Peaches and carried them.

Kai: Where are we going?

Lucci: we're taking you to see your dear mother.

Robin sat inside a room with Blueno(who was still in his disguise) sitting across from her.

Robin: I'm here, now what do you want?

Blueno: Merely just wondering what an infamous woman like you is doing in Water 7.

Robin: I was traveling with some people and we needed to stop here.

Blueno: You mean the straw hats correct? I cant help but wonder why a woman like you would join a rookie crew like them.

Robin: They let me come with them, so I figured why not.

Blueno: I've seen you have gone a quite a journey with them. You escaped Alabasta, then crash land in the G-8 marine base, end up at Long Ring Long Island where you met Aokiji, and finally you are here. You've been able to evade the marines ever since you were a little girl. So I suggest you cut the crap.

Robin: I dont know what your talking about, so please enlighten me.

Blueno: Never have you worked for someone and not betrayed them. So why would it be any different from Straw Hat. He defeated your former boss so then you decided to join him. How much longer before you decide to betray them?

She started to get defensive.

Robin: It's not like that!

Blueno: After everything what makes these people so different.

Robin: These people have proven to me that they wouldnt leave me behind. If they wanted to they would have just left me to die in Alabasta.

Blueno: You've grown attached to them Nico Robin, such a shame. Two of their members already have bounties making them dangerous. Even though the rest of the crew doesn't have bounties they are guilty enough for being pirates and for harboring a fugitive.

Robin's eyes widened.

Robin: Wait no please, they know nothing!

Blueno: My you've formed attachments to them, that's not good. If you wish so badly to save them we'll make you a deal. Do what we say and we not only let the Straw Hats leave the island freely but we'll also release him.

Robin got puzzled.

Robin: Him, what are you talking about?

The door swung open and in walked Lucci, carrying Kai and Peaches. Lucci threw down onto the floor. Kai managed to raise his head up and locked eyes with his mom. Both of their eyes widened.

Kai: Mom.

Robin: Kai!

Robin quickly was on her feet, ready to go over to Kai. However Blueno held her back.

Lucci: So he really is your son. Looks like we'll be taking both of you.

Robin: No please, he knows nothing about poneglyphs. I swear, I'm the only one who can read them!

Lucci: Now how can we be sure of that?

Robin: I swear on my life he knows nothing! I'll do anything you guys say, just dont hurt him!

Lucci: Alright then, in exchange for giving yourself up we'll let both your son and the strawhats go. However you must do something for us first. Do we have a deal?

Robin weakly nods her head.

Robin: Yes.

Lucci: Good, you stay here. We'll be back soon. I suggest you two enjoy these few last moment with each other.

Lucci and Blueno left the room, leaving Kai and Robin and Peaches. Quickly they ran over to each other and embraced one another. Tears started to fall from their eyes.

Kai: Mom, is that really you?

Robin: Yes, honey, yes it is.

She then held his face in her hands, taking in his features.

Robin: Kai, you're alright. I'm so happy to see you again. But how did you get here?

Kai's wings appeared from his back, Robin's eyes widened in shock. Kai chuckled.

Kai: I ate a devil fruit, it's how I've been traveling.

Peaches wandered over to the pair, Robin gazed down at him.

Robin: Is that a monkey?

Kai picked up Peaches.

Kai: This is Peaches, I met him on an island a while back. He's been with me for a while now.

Robin: How did you know to come here?

Kai: Some really tall guy told me too.

Robin(thought): Must have been Aokiji.

She then noticed the bruise on his cheek and cradled it with her hand.

Robin: They hurt you, didn't they?

Kai: Yeah. Is it true, that you're letting yourself get captured by the government.

Robin looked down.

Robin: Yes Kai.

Kai held onto his mom for dear life as his eyes started to water.

Kai: Please dont do it, I dont want to lose you again. After everything your just going to leave me again.

Robin started to cry again as she returned his hug.

Robin: I'm sorry Kai, I want to stay with you. I want us to be a family again. But these people, even if we tried to escape they will never stop hunting us down. If I give myself up at least you'll be safe. You will have the opportunity to live a normal life.

Kai: But where would I go, the only person I've known all my life is you.

Robin: There is a group of people known as the Strawhat pirates. I've been traveling with them for a while know. Go to them and tell them who you are. I know they'll keep you safe.

Kai: But...

The opened again and Lucci reappeared.

Lucci: Your time is up, we go now.

Robin faced Kai one more time and kissed him on the forehead. She smiled as tears poured from her eyes.

Robin: Kai, always remember that I love you. Now go, live the life I've always dreamt of.

Lucci pulled Robin away from Kai. Kai tried to reach out to her.

Kai: Mom wait...

Kai felt something hit his next as he fell to the ground. The last thing he saw was Peaches running over to him as Robin was being taken away.

In another part Kaku and Kalifa were talking to each other.

Kaku: Is Lucci actually going to let the son of Nico robin go.

Kalifa: Oh dont worry, I heard that we're just going to drop him off in the middle of the city and have the marines capture him as he tries to leave the island.
