Franky stared at the sobbing woman who had spent the last several hours accepting the treatment inflicted upon her by Spanda without a flinch. His eyes widened as his heart beat faster. The sheer emotion on her face had transformed it from a handsome façade to something gorgeously alive. Franky found himself transfixed by her brightly flashing eyes and her fierce determination as she proclaimed her desire to her captain and friends.
Tears welled in his eyes. The strength it took for her to actually publicly announce her greatest desire was awe inspiring and the sheer honesty of her emotions made his heart weep in sympathy. He wasn’t crying, dammit.
Tom had said she was a demon child, capable of destroying the world. Well it seemed this demon child had grown into a devil woman capable of destroying his heart. It was then Franky knew he would do whatever he could to return this woman to her friends. He prepared himself to throw his lot in with this reckless crew. Tom, I hope where ever you are you understand why I do what I’m about to do.
