The Abyss is such an awesome place.

Humans would never understand the amount of freedom a devil can experience in our natural element, and their minds are too fucking tiny to even imagine it.

Hm... I guess the closest I can describe it for a human to understand would be like outer space, except made of ink instead of a void.

Our being spreads throughout our own little area in The Abyss until we are pretty much a shapeless blob of essence and energy.

Humans will never be able to feel so relaxed.

Then... a year is up and we are forced back into our fruits.

Fucking hate it.

The fish hook feeling that pulls a devil into The Abyss is absolutely amazing, but being forced back into your fruit feels like falling from a mile up and crashing to the earth without a parachute.

I was unconscious for a while, cramped inside the itty-bitty fruit with absolutely no leg room, but I eventually woke to gross feeling of human hands manhandling my prison and I shrunk to a more comfortable size.

I could hear the murmuring outside. Something about me being a prize for some winner of some thing.

Finally, I was settled into the enormous hand of one human and all the others left whatever room we were in.

After a minute the human broke the silence.

"Fufufu. With this we will be able to draw out Straw Hat and Trafalgar, isn't that right, Ito?" He questioned.

I scowled as I felt the familiar presence of that damned witch of a devil as her hands ghosted over my fruit.

"Yes, master." She breathed, even though she knew that only I- even in my prison- would be able to hear her.

I snarled and pounded my fists against the slightly orange walls of my prison, tiny dents forming where my fists hit hard enough.

"FUCK YOU, ITO!!" I shouted, knowing that she would be able to hear me. "FUCK YOU AND FUCK THAT FLAMINGO BASTARD TOO!! YOU'RE NOT A REAL FUCKING DEVIL!! YOU'RE A FUCKING DISGRACE TO THE WHOLE DAMN SPECIES!!"

I could practically feel her eyes burning holes into my prison and a second later my fruit was hurled with all the strength of a sea king down to the floor.

"Ito." I heard that fucking flamingo exclaim.

I could see the shadows of both creatures with what little light that streamed through the seemingly thin walls of my prison.

Doflamingo reached up in the general area of where the Disgrace floated above his shoulders.

"Did he offend you?" The human asked softly, making me scoff.

"As if she could answer, you bastard!"

Immediately my fruit was picked up and slugged at a wall.

This time I hit my head and my vision blackened.

Waking up to the sounds of fighting is never as nice as some devils might tell you.

My head was pounding and I was pretty sure that my fruit was strapped to some sort of large and dangerous fish thing.

A shadowy figure that I could hardly see with this stupid fish flailing about ran up to the creature and I'm pretty sure he killed it.

Almost immediately after, my prison was in his hand and he was taking a bite out of it.

I was expelled violently from the fruit and was instantly met with the sight of some enormous colosseum with a moat surrounding a cracking arena.

I stared in awe for a moment. I had never seen so many devils in one place at once.

My new master was also strange. He wore a helmet and a fake white beard and had a cape and a long metal pipe in his hand.

So freaky.

"HEY!!" I heard a voice call out to me. I turned to see a rather nasty looking devil looming over the shoulders of a guy with green chicken hair and a nose ring.

Oh for fuck's sake... It just had to be Bari, didn't it?

"WHAT?!" I shouted back to the devil I had the extreme displeasure of knowing.

He cupped his hands around his mouth. "FUCK YOU!"

That got me angry. "FUCK YOU!!"

"NO, FUCK YOU!!"

"FUCK YER MOM!!"

"FUCK YOU YA FLAMING PIECE OF SHIT!! YOUR NEW MASTER IS FIRE FIST ACE'S BROTHER!!"

"FUCK OFF, YA PANSY!! LUFFY ALREADY HAS GOMU!!"

I could see Bari roll his eyes. "NOT HIM!! THE OTHER ONE, YOU DIPSHIT!! THE DEAD ONE!!"

"SABO?!"

"YEAH, FUCK FACE!!"

"THANKS, ASSHAT, I OWE YOU ONE!!"

"YOU FUCKING OWE YOUR MOM ONE!!"

"FUCK YOU!!"

"FUCK YOU!!"

And with that a out of the way, I turned to look at Sabo as he grabbed some gladiator looking chick with pink hair and jumped up into the air.

Heheh. Rhyming.

His helmet and beard came off and now I could vaguely see the resemblance to the stories I had heard Ace tell of his blonde brother.

Sabo then positioned himself for Ace's signature 'Fire Fist' and I exploded into a ball of fire around his hand and came down on the arena in a move called Hiken- completely destroying the thing.

I grinned at this new master of mine.

"Brother of Ace, huh?" I snickered as Sabo tried to 'control' the illusion of power I supplied him.

"Well, won't this be interesting!"
