Luffy: *Yawn*

Waking up, Luffy finds, Paige with needle fingers, transferring blood from Jinbe to him. His whole team along with Namora and Kaya watched over him, making him smile.

Luffy:(smiles) Shihihihih!

Craig: *sigh of relief* Looks like he's fine...

Kaya: *giggles*

Craig:(blushes) I taught him all that, you know...?

Kaya:(smiles) Of course.

Kitty: So to sum up the past 24 hours.... We basically crashed an amusement park, in other words, hit and ran from a S.W.O.R.D outpost...

Kitty: Ran over a princess with our Helicarrier. Slayed a giant beast, invaded Atlantis. Fought for the Atlantis rebeles. Fought the Army of Atlantis. And made a tunnel to show everyone the moon.

Kitty:(smiles) Heh, I didn't think I missed our chaotic adventures THAT much.

Robin: Ironically, this all has been a breath of fresh air, that I hope we can all continue breathing.

Paige: How are you feeling Luffy?

Luffy: Hungry.

Sanji: You're always hungry...

Luffy: And? Sanji! I want dinner!

Lila: Oh wait! We never had our reunion feast!

Namora: You're all having a reunion?

Sanji:(smiles) Why yes. We just got back together after two years.

Namora:(smiles) Then maybe we can combine our celebrations!

Luffy: Celebrations?

Namora: You saved many of my people. And you managed to convince Namor to keep the Ocean free!

Namora: We have to have a celebration! Right Cousin Namor?

She looks down at Namor who laid down, trying to look cool and not at all injured.

Namor:....

Namor: *sigh* Very well.

Luffy: Oh! Awesome! I guess we can then also triple the celebrations!

D-Men:?

Luffy: What? We gotta welcome our new members!

Luffy: Paige... Jinbe... Join us!

Paige/Jinbe:!

(Opening Theme)

In the Atlantis castle, all were invited to celebrate a new understanding between the underwater people and surface dwellers. With Kaya's crew as entertainment, Lila just stealing the musical role, and Sanji pushing himself as head chief, this celebration quickly became one that everyone would remember.

Namor sat on his throne and watched Luffy eat a ridiculous amount of food as Namora began poking him after he reached a certain level of fat. It annoyed Luffy since her pokes threatened to make him puke. Namor spotted Sanji flirting with the ladies of the sea, Laura drinking HEAVILY next to Luffy, consuming alcohol like he ate food, Kitty was chatting with Loa and Namora as she still continued to pester Luffy. Guido helped carry the larger portions of food and the kids and some ladies really had fun sitting on his arms like a chair as he carried them around, the young mutant didn't think much of it, not knowing he is destined to get an ear full from a certain set of sisters.

Paige was oddly observing all the D-Ladies, Namor didn't care for her. His thoughts were one the one member missing from the party at the moment.

Jinbe: King Namor.

Namor: Jinbe...

The First Son of the Sea arrived beside the King of Atlantis.

Jinbe: I'm sorry for everything that has happened between us. I hope you understand...

Jinbe: Leaving the royal guard... Becoming a Warlord.... Defying you. It was all for the sake of our people.

Jinbe: Both Atlantis and Mutants.

Namor:....

Namor: Everything in front of me. My people, smiling, eating, having fun. Is all I ever wanted.

Namor: To protect that, I will go to any lengths.

Namor: Make no mistake Jinbe. Deep in my heart, I believe my plan would have worked. We have have found happiness without the surface and we can continue doing so.

Jinbe: Then why relent against Luffy?

Namor: He showed everyone the moon. But to me, he showed me defeat.

Namor: Perhaps he can take on the Hulk, when he returns.... For now, I'll place my trust in him.

Namor: Speaking of the boy... Are you truly joining him?

Jinbe: Yes. With him, I see a true chance at a future where Mutants can live in peace with everyone else.

Jinbe: We are lucky... You and Namora's royalty status makes your gifts seem like blessings.

Jinbe: And my deeds have made me into a sort of folk hero that they come to accept...

Jinbe: But we could have easily been ostracized if we were in different positions.

Namor:....

Namor: Enjoy the festivities. I need to leave for a moment.

He leaves the party.

Craig arrives after putting on a suit helped made by Tak who came with him. The two then find Sanji greeting them.

Sanji: Took you long enough.

Getting behind Craig, Sanji messages his shoulder.

Sanji: Your girl is just about to end the show. I've already prepared a special dinner for the both of you back in the D-Carrier.

Sanji: So it's up to you to ask her to come with you.

Craig: Why are you helping me?

Sanji: Why do you think, jackass?

Craig: Nevermind...

Sanji: I'm going to put the moves on Kitty, Robin and our very new friend Paige. So once you're off, you're on your own.

Craig: What about Tak?

Tak: I'll super be there for you in spirit! Because I want to go show off my builds and study whatever tech they got!

Craig: Oh boy....

Sanji: She's done. Now remember, if you don't score her, I will.

Craig: What-!?

Kicking Craig towards Kaya, Sanji heads to the others, eating near Namora.

Tak: I see a low probability of him "getting lucky" as they say.

Sanji: Have some faith. The girl clearly likes him.

Tak: No. It's because of biology! Do either of them know how to "make it work"?

Sanji:...

Sanji: Pffft! I hope he does. I'd love to know what it's like with a mermaid.

Spotting Paige carefully observing, Laura, Sanji calls out to her.

Sanji: Paige-Mamba~! Allow me to formally welcome you to our team with a customary hug!

Paige walks away, dodging Sanji's hug. She approaches Laura who is only alive thanks to her healing factor. The All New Wolverine chugs down another bottle.

Wrapping an arm around Luffy the two cheer as they eat their meat and drink their booze.

Luffy/Laura: Whooo!

Behind them, Paige used her snake like a fishing pole, dangling a bottle of alcohol above Laura's head. Taking the bait, Laura followed the bottle in her drunken state to a pile of more drinks a ways away from Luffy.

Paige:(smirks) Hehe...!

Tak: What are you doing?

Paige:!!

*PA-POW*

Surprised, Paige flips forward, smashing her heels against Sanji and Tak's chins.

Paige:!!?

Paige: I'm sorry, you surprised me! You shouldn't do that, I have killer instincts.

Sanji:(rubs chin) No worries, everyone loves a lady with some kick. Right Tak?

Tak: Ugghhhh... Not super....

Sanji:(shrugs)

Sanji: As he was saying... What are you doing?

Paige: I can't tell you... All I can say is that I'm on a secret mission given to me by my Empress.

Paige:(mind) A mission that involves keeping Luffy's females members as JUST friends for Lady Boa...

Paige:(mind) Not quite sure what she means by that... But my instructions include not letting him touch ladies... So...

Sanji: Uh-huh. Anyway... May I welcome you with a hug?

Paige: Huh? Uhmmm... I guess so?

Sanji:(smiles)

Getting the hug, Sanji meets Luffy's gaze. He gives his leader a thumbs up.

Sanji:(smiles) Good job.

Luffy:(smiles) Shihihihih! Thanks!

(Meanwhile.....)

Robin having found the castle vault, was writing down notes of what she saw, before she saw Namor arrive with the eyes she bloomed on the ceiling to make sure no one snuck up from behind.

Without a care, she greeted Namor while continuing to fill her journal.

Robin: Hello King Namor. Any reason you left the party?

Namor: Just because I allowed you all to celebrate with us, does not mean I didn't keep my eyes on you all.

Robin: If you think I'm here to steal, don't worry. I'm only interested in history.

Robin: Like the one written down on that Poneglyph.

She writes down the final bit of text from the Poneglyph stored within the Atlantis vault.

Robin: Would you like to know what it says?

Namor: What?

Robin: Well... From what I currently can translate... It speaks about how Atlantis was once a city on the surface...

Robin: Before the return of Celestials who caused mass destruction, resulting in many things...

Robin: Including Atlantis sinking...

Robin: With previous Poneglyphs I've found... I've learned many things.

Robin: Celestials came to earth... Not once but twice. The first time they made something...

Robin: The second they destroyed.

Robin: I also know that whatever they made... An alien race mimicked them.

Namor: Is that it?

Robin: No... I know that four celestials came, but only three were said to have done something...

Robin: And one Poneglyph had nothing to do with the Celestials... It talked about a fight about "Joyboy and Apocalypse".

Robin: I regret tossing that one away... Even if it had nothing to do with these Celestials, it still would have helped me translate more.

Namor: Hmph. Why should I care about any of this?

Robin:(smiles) No reason. I thought telling you would just be a fair price for letting me see your Poneglyph.

Robin: Do with the information, whatever you like.

Robin: Now if you excuse me, I'm going to enjoy my time with my friends.

Robin: Unless you wish to tell me how the Horn Of Proteus and Namora share a power.

Namor: No.

Robin: Then I hope you will rejoin the party. The people are going to want to see their king.

Leaving, Robin finds his friends, and sits beside Luffy, despite Paige's attempts to use the fishing pole trick with a book on her.
