Law and Katya wandered through the forest following Bepo's Vivre Card. The trees were covered in dew and the sunset's glow came through the trees. Katya smiled and held onto her necklace.
"This island is beautiful." She observed. "If it wasn't for the constant threat of death from those seawater floods, I'd love this place."
Law snorted. "I thought you loved the constant threat of death?" He held up his hand to her, displaying the tattoos on them.
"Did...did you just make a pun?"
Suddenly, there was a large amount of rustling in the trees in front of them. Heads popped up from the bushes and the Heart Pirates appeared. Katya burst into a grin and Law began to smile too. They were all there, albeit with lots of bandages. Bepo, Shachi, Penguin, Ikkaku, Jean Bart and the rest.
"CAPTAIN!" Bepo sobbed and raced forward, throwing his whole body at Law. "You came for us!"
"Katya-chan too!"
"Everyone!" She said happily as the group flooded round. Ikkaku reached Katya first and pulled her into a tight hug. Bepo was rubbing his cheek against Law's head.
"I missed you!" The bear cried. "All the members of the Heart Pirates are here now!"
"It's so good to see you!" Ikkaku beamed at Katya, before the woman was tackle-hugged by Shachi and Penguin.
"Katya-chan! Straw Hat said you both nearly died."
"Yeah, it was a bit wild."
"C-Captain!" Bepo continued to sob and Katya could see Law smirk slightly at the affection of his navigator.
"Bepo, do you wanna squash him?" Shachi scolded.
"Like you can talk!" Katya laughed as the trio hugged.
"Sorry, sorry!" Bepo jumped off Law and the rest of the Heart Pirates rushed over to Law, including Katya. "I'm so amazed to know that you beat Doflamingo!"
"No, that was more Straw Hat-ya."
"Stop being humble, Law, we all beat the shit out of that flamingo." Katya poked him in the ribs teasingly.
"We have so much to catch up on!" Penguin said. "Let's go deeper into the forest!"
"What's happened whilst we've been away?" Katya asked.
"Ah, it's a long story."
"That's crazy! I'm glad you're all still alive after that!" Katya gaped as the crew finished their story of the battle on Zou.
"But tell us what happened with you two! Straw Hat said you both nearly died!" Bepo said. Law sat down and rested his back against Bepo.
"How come he gets to use Bepo as a pillow?" Penguin pouted grumpily to Katya.
"He hasn't seen him in a while, Pen, lay off."
"It was eventful, I guess." Law shrugged.
"That's not enough detail!" The crew shouted.
"Well what part do you want clarification on?"
"Maybe start with that wanted poster of yours, Katya." Ikkaku laughed.
"Please don't speak of it." Katya hung her head.
"Fifty-five million is great!" Ikkaku said with an encouraging smile.
"You're officially a wanted pirate!" Shachi grinned at her.
"I suppose so."
"So you're staying with us permanently?"
"Yes." Law cut in.
"Don't go answering for me!" Katya snapped at him. "But yes." She gave Law a soft smile. "I'm not going anywhere."
