"Captain? This just came in…" Killer told Eustass who was drawing a map in the captain's cabin.
Eustass took the wanted poster from his first mate's hand and smiled. The only one who knew of his secret crush on the Surgeon of Death was Killer. Killer was not fully supportive of this because he knew how cunning the doctor could be but whatever he said fell on his captain's deaf ears. Killer could only do his best to support his captain and wish him luck.
Trafalgar Law's bounty had just increased and he smiled. As expected of the man who stole his heart. "Thank you," Eustass told killer who nodded and left the room.
Eustass looked at the collection of Trafalgar's wanted posters and pictures on the wall. He sighed. "When will I be able to meet you again?" he asked to no one in particular.

Trafalgar Law sighed. He was on board the Thousand Sunny. Lately things seem to be going way too easily and he wonders if it was due to his meticulous planning or somebody else's plan. Truly, confronting Kaido was not easy. However with Luffy's help he managed to pull through it. His Shichibukai title had been stripped off and Donquixote Doflamingo had been put into Impel down for abusing his Shichibukai status.
Right now he sailed with Luffy in order to meet up with his crew. Law wonders how he would take down the next Yonko. The man he was aiming this time happened to be Blackbeard Marshall D. Teach.
"The man who took down the God of the Sea huh? From my information network he is on the island Luffy-ya is going to. Will lady luck abandon me this time?" Law smiled. He was looking forward to getting to know more about the man who ate the fearsome devil fruit.

Eustass Kid arrived at Purplewood Island. His log pose had led him to this island. It was meant to be the most exciting one in Eustass's opinion. The more unstable the needle the better the adventure, he needed some strong opponents at times.
Eustass grinned as his feet touched ground. It felt good to be on dry land once more after sailing for weeks. Eustass had not been prepared to meet a Yonko.
Cursing, he told Killer to get the crew away from the island while he held back the Yonko and his crew. Marshall D. Teach stood in Eustass Kid's way and his crew blocked any escape routes. The red haired captain cursed. His eyes narrowed as Blackbeard showed off his ugly teeth with that twisted grin. Mockery was evident in the despicable man's eyes and the Supernova gritted his teeth in frustration. Once again his plans had backfired horribly and Eustass Kid found himself in a tight spot.
He glanced back at his crew who all had grim expressions. Eustass knew that they would not escape unscathed. "Killer," he growled with a low voice. His first mate knew instantly that it was a fight to the death.
"I understand captain," his trusted subordinate respected his wish which could possibly be his last.
Eustass waited and the tension between the Yonko and the supernova was unbearable. Without displaying their Conqueror's Haki, their aura alone was enough to knock out any weak willed pirates. Thankfully all the men on board Eustass's ship were ruddy and strong lads. They were fine dogs of the sea that sailed the Grand Line in the New World.
Without warning, all of Eustass's crew took off in different directions at the same time Killer threw a smoke grenade.
Before Blackbeard had anytime to pursue the escaping crew, Eustass launched himself at the bigger man. The red haired devil fruit user only regretted not being able to see the sexy Surgeon of Death once more.
The fight was one sided and it did not take long before the captain was knocked out However those few seconds of delay was enough for the crew to escape and that was all the captain wanted.

Luffy was sitting on Sunny's head keeping a lookout for the island that Nami had said they would arrive in a few days. Being optimistic on the new prospect of a mystery island, Luffy could hardly contain his excitement and always spent his time on the captain's seat where he could keep a lookout.
It was afternoon and the sun was extremely hot. In the New World the weather was even less predictable than the Paradise part of Grand Line. Nami and Robin took this opportunity to sun tan themselves while Sanji fawned over them like the usual idiot he was. Law occupied himself with Chopper's medical books. They were interesting because other than surgery, Law's medical knowledge was lacking.
Chopper explained about the uses of herbs for treatment while Law tried to rationalize the use of plants as medicine instead of chemicals. "This is the most primitive method of healing that I have come across. How does it work?" the doctor asked. The reindeer merely smiled and explained the theory of energy forces in a body with the balancing. Law deadpanned. Even though they were both doctors, Law could not understand how something so unscientific would work as medicine.
However, before Law could bring up more questions, the Straw hat pirates' captain yelled about having found someone in the water.
Both doctors immediately switched to professional mode, ready to receive the person.
When Ussop and Zoro managed to fish the huge man up, Law gasped. It was not only the injuries that the man had sustained that shocked him. The identity of the man in question was a far greater shock than the injuries he sustained.
"Mr. Eustass!" Law gasped in horror. His mind stopped functioning and due to his emotions running high, he was unable to perform the role of a doctor. Chopper took over that role and assessed the unconscious man while Law was reeling in from the initial shock.

Eustass woke up to someone snoring beside him. He took in his new environment and knew immediately that somehow he had survived. The man he harbored a crush on was snoring lightly by his bedside. Eustass's heart beat rose and so did the beeping of the machine.
The Surgeon of Death awoke frantically to the sound of the machine's erratic beeping, thinking that something was wrong with Eustass, only to find the red haired man blushing while staring at him.
Law was surprised for a moment but then a playful smirk replaced the stunned expression. He purred and Eustass felt his heart skip a beat. "I see that you are well enough now Mr. Eustass. You had me worried there for a moment."
Eustass felt his face heat up even more. The doctor was using a sultry tone to tempt him further. The man tried to act normal and attempted a rude remark like usual but his voice got caught in his throat. It didn't help that the sexy doctor bumped their foreheads together 'to check for fever'. Eustass was thankful that his crew was not present to see it.
The thought about his crew made the captain recall of his encounter with the Yonko. "Shit!" he cursed.
Law was thrown off without warning as Eustass tumbled out of bed in haste. "Where are you going, Eustass-ya?" Law chased after the red head who did not make it very far.
Head still spinning from a harsh impact with the ground, Eustass groaned and focused his bleary eyes at the doctor who had a concerned frown.
It took a lot of pacification on Law's side before Eustass was willing to stay still and listen to his story before the red head could jump off the ship in search of his crew.

Blackbeard was fuming. Eustass Kid had the devil's luck to have escaped the very last moment. The Yami-yami no mi was supposed to rob him of his devil fruit's ability and kill him. That Supernova had used the last of his power to shoot Blackbeard using one of his crew's muskets. Blackbeard had dropped the man into the sea but he also knew for certain that the red haired man did not perish from the fall. Blackbeard was livid and he swore to kill the red head along with anyone else that found and saved him.

Eustass Kid breathed a sigh of relief when he put down the den den mushi. Apparently his crew had escaped safely and was rescued by Law's crew. They were waiting at another island now for Luffy who was bringing Law over to meet up with them.
Law looked at the flame haired male smugly. He could not help but feel proud of his crew as a captain.
Eustass glared at the tan man halfheartedly. Honestly he was thankful however his reputation did not allow him to show any sort of soft side. The smug look on that man's face was also irking the red head. "He is not going to hear any thanks from me with that knowing look no matter how sexy he is…"
Luffy was fooling around on deck as usual when suddenly a cannon ball came whistling by. Immediately, Zoro was on his feet by his captain who had deflected the cannonball just in time. All hands appeared on deck including Law and Eustass.
"Captain! The ship is under attack!" Franky reported. Luffy frowned. He asked Robin, "Whose flag is that?"
Using the binoculars, Robin identified it to be Blackbeard's. Nami was already on deck ordering the others to prepare for battle. Eustass snarled when he heard Blackbeard. Law looked uncomfortable. The surgeon had intended to use Blackbeard against Big Mom but now that he has to fight against the man he needed to abort the plan.
Eustass thought about how Blackbeard tried to absorb his devil fruit ability and how his crew had nearly been killed by this Yonko. Rage awakened from within. Before anyone could react, Eustass used his abilities to freeze all the incoming cannonballs and send them back to Blackbeard's ship.
Blackbeard's ship was successfully destroyed and it led all of Blackbeard's crew to board the Sunny-go.
Luffy, Law and Eustass had a faceoff with Blackbeard. It was difficult to gain the upper hand because Blackbeard's devil fruit ability prevented any sort of physical contact and close range attacks.
While Zoro was occupied with his fight with Shiliew and Sanji occupied with Jesus Burgess, the rest of the crew tried to hold back the remaining of Blackbeard's crew. However the power difference was too strong and everyone knew it was a losing battle.
Ussop suddenly cried out in fear when Doc Q got hold of him. Luffy turned around only to see his friend held hostage.
Using Luffy's distraction, Blackbeard took the chance to rid of Eustass Kid resulting in Law trying to protect the man using himself. As Blackbeard killed Law in front of Eustass's eyes the red haired man lost the last of his rationality and became a beast.
Purple waves of energy covered Eustass's entire form as Law's body fell to the ground. He unleashed the fury of his powers on Blackbeard who was as stunned as anyone else on board.
Controlling the iron in Blackbeard's blood Eustass lifted the man off the ground and made Blackbeard to scream in agony when he used his ability to materialize a spear of iron from Blackbeard's blood. The spear pierced through Blackbeard's chest and then decapitated the Yonko.
When Blackbeard was dead, Eustass regained his normal self and gently cradled Law in his arms.
"Law?" his voice sounded broken and weak but nothing else mattered.
Seeing this made Luffy and his crew angry. They finished off Blackbeard's remaining crew while Chopper tried desperately to save Law's life.
Chopper cried while he did his best but Law refused to breathe. Eustass felt his breaking heart fall apart even more with every passing second that Law would not breathe. He was losing hope and for the first time in his life he cried. "If only I told him how I felt about him…"

Author's Note: This is my very first Eustass x Law and to be honest I doubt this idea is original at all. However I really wanted to read a Eustass x Law fic so badly that I had to write one since no one out there would write one like that TTATT I hope you will enjoy this nevertheless. I'm new to the One Piece fandom so I don't know much. I don't own anything here just in case. Do review because it lets me know how much you enjoyed this Please wait for the next chapter. I'll try my best to upload it as soon as I can… now to prepare for school next year ^_^
