A blonde haired female Marine dashed through the base she was stationed in, fear on her face as she looked behind her trying to see if that… thing was still following her. But it wasn’t there. Slowing to a stop Hibari let out a little quiet cheer.
She lost it. She lost whatever the hell was following her.
“ Too slow. ” The eerie voice came from behind her. Jumping up, Hibari tried to run. But the thing grabbed her shoulder and all she felt was pain. Falling to her knees the last thing Hibari saw was the pale pirate with a giant hole in his chest.

Fleet Admiral Akainu stared at the Den Den Mushi he just received a… not so good call from. His hands clenched tightly and pain in his eyes.
Hibari was dead.
His daughter was dead.
“Hibari…”
“Now you know how Oyaji felt.” A voice spoke from just behind Akainu, the Fleet Admiral stood up from his chair and turned around to face whoever dared to break into his office. His heart stopped when he saw who, what , was standing behind him.
Black somewhat wavy hair, dull gray eyes, ghostly pale skin. And a hole in his chest where Akainu killed him.
“Portgas…how are you here?” Akainu stared the creature down, trying to call upon his magma. But nothing, Why wasn’t his fruit listening to him?!
“...Revenge. On everyone who betrayed me, who had a hand in my death. And you, you’re at the top of the list.” The creature walked forward a smile on his face, Akainu tried to move but found he couldn’t.
What the hell was going on?!
The dead man reached Akainu and stood up on his tip toes and wrapped his arms around Akainu’s neck. “You deserve this…and so so much more.”
Akainu couldn't move as Ace leaned in and placed a chaste kiss on his lips, when the ghost pulled away an inky black substance was left on his lips.
“You know how Oyaji felt…” Ace disappeared from the Fleet Admirals sight. Than he felt nothing but horrendous pain.
His lips felt like they were burning off, he raised his left hand to his lips and rubbed off whatever was on them but all that came off was blood.
His insides started burning immediately after, falling to his knees Akainu immediately threw up.
Blood and the inky black substance was all that came up, and it wouldn’t stop. After almost ten minutes of nonstop throwing up, Akainu fell to his side.
The ink black substance dripped from his wide and empty eyes and mouth.
Ace appeared sitting on the dead Fleet Admiral’s desk with one leg over the other, a cruel smile on his face. “...One down.”
⸻
Teach laid on his bed, an arm over his eyes as he thought about the good times before Thatch found his Devil Fruit. Of meeting Ace, of falling in love. Of all the smile’s Ace would give him in the mornings when he woke up cuddled right next to the older man.
Of the pure love that was in Ace’s eyes before everything went to shit.
Why didn’t Ace just join him dammit! If he did, Teach wouldn't have been forced to send him to the Marines! Why didn’t Ace just fucking say yes!
A weight on his stomach made Teach remove his arm and give an irritated look at who was sitting on him. A lively looking Ace looked at him with nothing but love, a giant smile on his face.
His hat on his head.
“..Ace?”
“Afternoon silly! Haha, Thatch made an awesome dinner. And for dessert, I have a surprise for you.” Ace leaned down so his lips were just barely brushing Teach’s. “And it involves your favorite pie.”
…Was Teach dreaming? He had to have been. Ace and Thatch were dead.
“...How are you here? You’re dead.”
Ace gave an irritated sigh before his form changed to the creature from before. “You just couldn’t let me do what you did to me, could you.” His skin became ghostly pale almost gray, the hole in his chest appeared (Black blood dripping as the hole forced itself open) and his signature orange hat…disappeared. (Teach hated that, Ace should always have his hat.)
“Why are you here.”
“Hahahaha for revenge silly! Why else would I want to be near you again. You killed Thatch, you killed Oyaji, you killed me . And I’m going to make…you regret it.” A deranged smile made its way to Ace’s face, “And I know where to st~aaart” Ace leaned in a kissed Teach, shoving his tongue into the living Pirates mouth.
As soon as his tongue hit Teach’s he felt an immediate burning pain, but he still didn’t move. Closing his eyes Teach accepted his death at the hands of his once lover.
Ace was a Wraith, and he will stop at nothing to get his revenge. So why fight it?
