A/N: This chapter was just a short summary of EP 731, A battle of Viola and Doflamingo, during Monkey D. Luffy's absence. However, I changed few happenings at the end and that was where I decided to start my story. If you do not wish to read the recap and wanna just go straight to the story, skip to chapter two.

"So, what did you come here for, Viola?"

Viola closed her eyes and untied her red raggedy coat after the heinous sound Doflamingo made, "The Doflamingo Family is about to be obliterated. If I do nothing to take resposibility as a former executive, it's too selfish." she said in response.

Now staring straight at him, she removed the flower resting comfortably on the left side of her head, and let her hair fell down as the wind howlingly blows.

And before she drew her knife, "Either I will die, or you will...Doffy!"

"You're very passionate, Violet!" Doflamingo said in between his crack.

Viola made the first attack, trying to stab him in parts of him where she could possibly reach. An act which she knew was impossible and dangerous, knowing Doffy as a merciless demon. She knew how it will end up, she knew she was no match against him but she kept struggling in every aim she made. As a princess, she was taught how to self defence and learned how to engaged in a fight, most especially when she started being one of the Don Quixote Family. It has been 10 years, and in those years, she knew how much of a devil his opponent was.

As she lifted her leg for a kick, Doffy disappeared in her sight and grinned closely behind her before he returned the exact same attack, but more obviously in a different amount of force. Viola was sent flying to the nearby huge rock, and bounced back on the ground. Now trying to get herself together, she stood straight and put both of her hands on each side of her eyes as she spelled, "Hierro Lagrima". Two ironed tears formed in a shape of whales came right through her eyes, targeting Doflamingo.

All smoke and dusts from the collision, Doflamingo countered the attack with his strings, attached from the ground and broke the tearwhales in an instant, standing no motion. Viola knew it would not work when she rapidly started coming right at him and just after she had many attempts, Doflamingo took her by the wrist from an attack aiming straight at his face, gripping her so tight that Viola loosened up her knife.

Doflamingo continued laughing only few inches away from her face, Viola tried to use her other free hand to slap but was immediately stopped by his threads. He grabbed her head and dragged her face on the ground, and just before he was about to step on her, she took a handful of dirt and threw it almost directly at his face, and made numerous attacks of kicks and punches, but none of her attempts hit Doflamingo. Stubborn as she was, she raised her leg again for another kick but was surprised by his quick pace of getting on top of her in a second, and with no hesitation, he scratched her face, sending her on the ground.

"Did you think...I'll hesitate just because we spent a decade as a family, Violet?...

...Hesistate to kill you?" He continued as he slowly raised his hand and flicked each finger to control Viola's body. He played the role of a ventriloquist, demanding every motion anyone made. Now sending her on her feet, hands clumped up together, she struggled to be still conscious.

The surrounding was empty, only both of them were in sight. Viola knew nobody would save her, nobody would dare to, and nobody can even. But those were not the reason why she decided to confessed before he made another move.

"What did you say?" Doflamingo was frozen to what he just heard.

"You heard me," Viola said in her every breath.

Doflamingo was suddenly sent to laughter. He boisterously guffawed, letting Viola out of his trap. Bending and hands on his stomach, he continued to laugh and just as he made a serious grin towards Viola, "Oy, oy. Don't make me laugh. Are you saying nonsense now to get away from your death?"

Viola, hyperventilating, on her knees, from exhaustion, "Do not make me repeat myself."

Both of them quieted down and a second after Doflamingo narrowed his brows to argue more, both of their eyes were sent by an enraged shout of an overly energized and taunted young man,

"Mingoooooooooooooooo!" Luffy, coming back from a quick rest, ready for the second round.
