Summary
Misinformation courteousy of the papers has spread the lie of Ace’s death across the Grand Line, but while he did survive his ordeal at Marineford, it's decided that hiding his identity for the sake of training secretly is his best option.
Unfortunately, the only one skilled enough to take him on as a student is a member of the terrorist organization known as the Revolutionary Army. Ace is less than happy about the situation, but has little choice but to seek the revolutionaries out for sanctuary.
When he does find them, he in fact finds more than just a teacher.
A reunion he never thought possible, never even dared to imagine because it simply hurt too much — but he's not the only one in pain, and seeing the extent of his childhood friends suffering terrifies him.
How is he supposed to protect Sabo from the ghosts that haunt him when everyone is claiming he's forgotten ten years of his life?
How was Ace supposed to help if Sabo didn't even remember him?

Summary
They didn't want Ace to come along, but Ace had wanted to visit Pops anyway, and what were they gonna do to stop him? Already injured like he was?
Plus, there was something… strange, about the situation. Ace didn't know why exactly, there was just something itching at the back of his mind telling him he needed to be there.
He could feel the newcomer’s haki before they'd even gotten close. It was strong. Far stronger than Ace had expected; but… it was also warm. He could tell through their haki that they were, as Haruta assumed, dangerous — very dangerous — but they didn't feel like a threat, necessarily. It was so strange. The presence felt familiar.

Summary
They were wrapped tightly in each others embrace, still connected in every way possible, clinging on the verge of terror at the thought of separating, somehow fading with traded feathersoft kisses and whispers of “I love you” spoken in voices that sounded like prayer.

Summary
Highschool sucks enough without parents who don't care whether you live or die and classmates who cringe when they look at your face.

Summary
He tried to focus on the last thing he remembered. It all flooded back to him; returning to his family, the fire the fire the fire—, leaving the island, and drowning... except he wasn't dead. No dead person would be wherever he was, would feel his body ache like he did. Which means he was alive.
For how long, though, is a good question.
AU where instead of being saved by the Revolutionaries, Sabo gets fished out by the Celestial Dragon that shot him down and turned into a slave. Ace and Luffy think he is dead for a very long time, and Sabo wishes he was more than once.
