It was a peaceful afternoon on the Thousand Sunny. The birds were chirping, the sun was shini--Hold on, Wrong story!

Ah here we go! It was a usual day on the sunny. Never peaceful, actually!

"LUFFY! LUFFY! LUFFY! LUFFY! LUFFY! LUFFY! LUFFY! LUFFY! LUFFY! LUFFY!" Usopp, Suta and Chopper were cheering. They were about to see Luffy do something crazy again. It was an impression. It could be of anyone. The door opened slowly, half-opened, creaking. No one seen inside, no one came out.

10 long seconds passed.

Nothing.

Usopp and Chopper thought maybe something scary would come out, or something bad would happen. (i really don't know why.) The two held each other tight in fear, while Suta just stared, thinking did the toilet eat him? That guy owes me 5 bucks, he does! "L-Luffy?"

No response.

"Luffy...LUFFY! COME OUT ALREADY! COME OU--"

"RAAAAAAAAAH!"

"AAAHH!" They were startled. But it was just a goofy 17 year old boy in a bed sheet with a Halloween mask on. "TAKE A PICKLE IN A CAR! GIVES YOU RELLISH IN A JAR! AYAYAYYAYAAAAAA!" Usopp, Suta and Chopper were laughing so hard. "Thats our Luffy! Nice scare!" Luffy was laughing too. "Arigatou, minna!" He took off his bed sheet, grabbed Suta's hand and decided to hop to the kitchen, when a blond cook with a tray in his hands spinning by stopped them. You could see the hearts following him.

"Ah, Nami-san, Robin-chan, I've come all the way from the depths of hell, only to enter heaven where I can see your smiling face...In my hand I hold a gift to quench your thirst. And desserts to go with that, of course. These were made with all the love in the world, for I am here only to serve the most beautiful of anything in the world!" He handed the tray to the table in between Nami and Robin's lounge chairs. The tray had 2 glasses of lemonade and two small chocolate cakes with bits of chocolate circled in the middle with frosting lining it. Nami was in a bright-blue bikini with sequins all over it, and Robin was in a dark-green bikini with a strap around her neck to tie it closed. Apparently, they were tanning outside in the Sunny day. "Arigatou, Sanji-kun!" Nami drank her lemonade. She looked into her drink. "Hm..." She handed her glass to the blond cook.

He blinked.

Twice.

"Nami-san?" He look at the glass, then Nami. "May I have some with more sugar in it? It's too sour." He smiled a big smile. "Hai, Nami-san. What about you, Robin-chan?"

"My lemonade is fine, Cook-san." Robin smiled at the cook, who's cigarette smoked out hearts. "Okay, Robin-chan, I'll be in the kitchen if you need me" He walked off to the kitchen with a big smile on his face, flared nostrils and red cheeks, showing his perverted face. He passed by a green-haired swordsman, working out. He stopped and sighed. Ero-cook... He muttered to himself. Doesn't he ever learn? He put down the dumbells and walked down the stairs to nap.

2 minutes pass.

Sanji walks out of the kitchen with a glass of lemonade in a tray for Nami. He opened the door to see a hungry straw-hatted boy and a blond haired girl. "SANJI!" They cried in their usual whiny voices. "IM HUUUUNGRYYYYYYYYY!" A vein popped on the blonde man's forehead. "Not now. I have to give this lemonade to Nami-san. I'll feed you later." He used one hand to hold the tray and one to push the two away. He passed by, but Luffy somehow managed to jump in front of him. "NO! I'm captain and what I say goes! I DEMAND MEAT! GREASY! RIGHT OFF THE BONE WITH GRAVY! AND TONS OF CHEESE AND CHOCOLATE AND FISH STICKS AND BLUEBERRIES AND--"

"What kind of person can eat all that? And who'd want to?" He walked off hastily. Luffy grabbed his collar from the back, while Suta was drooling, thinking of the best foods there could be. "SANJI! MEAT! NOW!" Sanji was really getting mad. "Luffy..." He took one arm and swatted Luffy's hand away. Luffy was mad and took a deep breath.

"SANJI! MEAT! NOW!" The yell startled him and made him lose his balance and fall, dropping the lemonade and breaking the glass. "Oi, Sanji, you should be more careful with these things! Clean it and make some niku!" Suta jumped up and down. "NIKUUUUUUUUUUU!!" That was it.

For the next 15 minutes, you could hear Luffy screaming, and kicks being hit. Chopper hugged Usopp in fear again, while Suta was a yard and a half away from the two, trying not to get involved. Luffy was now seen in bruises, bumps and a fat lip. "Bari-bari, Thanjee." He lisped his words, trying to say 'Wari-wari, Sanji'. Sanji leaned over the railing, calling out to the girls, "Im so sorry, Nami-san, our idiot captain destroyed your lemonade! Would you desire another? She smiled. "No thank you." He turned his head to Robin. "How about you, Robin-chwan?"

"No thank you, cook-san. I am fine for now." Sanji's big smile came back. "Hai, Robin-chan," He replied, sweetly.

Luffy and Suta turned to Sanji, attempting to ask for food again. "Sa--" Sanji turned his head with a glare that even scared Luffy. He gulped, "N-never mind..." and walked past Sanji and back to Usopp and Chopper.

Suta walked down the stairs and kneeled next to Deji and Zoro, who were both sleeping next to each other. She knew Zoro wasnt ticklish, but she knew one place nobody could ignore. (NO, NOT THE NUTS, YOU PERVERTS!! -throws a beaver at you- :D IT LIKES YOU!) She poked his bellybutton. He jumped and his elbow hit Deji in the shoulder, hard. "ITAE! What just happened?" she asked, rubbing her shoulder. They both glared at Suta, who had a big smile on her face. "I'm bored!" The two sweatdropped. "Sure doesn't look like it." The blond shrugged. "Well you know what they say, don't judge a jelly donut by its sprinkles. The two sweatdropped even more. "Thats not even close." Suta stuck her tongue at them. "MEH. YOU BORE ME." She poked Zoro's nose and walked away.

"Finally." The two closed their eyes, but before Zoro got the chance to fall asleep, he smelled a familiar scent. he opened his eyes and saw Suta holding a bunch of strawberry based items; strawberry jelly, strawberry milk(ITS REAL I SWEARS!!), and just plain strawberries. Zoro felt drool on his lower lip. "Alright. What do you want, Suta?" Deji woke up, looking at what Suta was holding. Oh no...she thought. Zoro could never resist anything that tasted or smelled like strawberries.

Suta had a big grin on her face, while Zoro awaited what humiliating task he needed to do.

5 minutes later...

Zoro wore nothing but Nami's purple (well people always say PINK and FRILLY) bra with flowers all over, her denim skirt and high heel white boots with unicorns. "This is ridiculous."

"SAY IT!!" She hissed.

Zoro let out a deep sigh. For the strawberries. He skipped around in a small circle, sarcastically saying "Wheeee. Charlie. Candy mountain. Candy--" He dropped to the floor and grabbed the strawberries and threw them to Deji, them jumped to his feet and chased Suta around the Sunny. "I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!!" Nami saw Zoro at the corner of her eye, grabbed the pan that her lemonade was on earlier and clashed it with Zoro's face. "WHY ARE YOU WEARING MY CLOTHES?!" He pushed off the pan and yelled at Nami, "SUTA MADE ME! SHE BRIBED ME WITH STRAWBERRIES BECAUSE SHE WAS BORED!!" Nami let out a deep sigh. "Well THAT'S not too surprising. Anyway, how can you run so fast with those high heels? It's as if you wore them before..." She walked off giggling to herself. His face turned red with anger. "OMAE..." His hands balled up into fists. He walked off to the men's room to change into his own clothes.

Suta was still running and ran to Luffy, who was sitting on the lion head looking for an island. "Zoro look-a like a monkey with girls clothes!" Luffy made a pout. "I thought I did in YOUR clothes..." Suta looked confusedly at Luffy. "What?"

"Nothing!" He now had a straight face. Zoro crossed paths with Sanji, who just stared at him. "ASK. SUTA." He turned his head away and stomped straight to the men's quarters, cursing to himself. Sanji just turned his head away, closed his eyes tight and shuddered. I'm scarred for life. He thought.

Deji was leaning on the mast, staring at the sky. "It's such a deep blue color. And the clouds are like deformed fish." Suta and Luffy turned their heads with huge eyes and drooling mouths. "SKY FISHIES?! SUGOIIIIIIIII!!" Deji sweatdropped. "R...ight..." She heard footsteps come closer to her. She turned her head and saw a blond cook with a smiling face. "Would you like any snacks, Deji-chan?"

She frowned. "Don't call me Deji-chan."

"Deji-chwan?"

"No."

"Deji-swan?"

"Just Deji." She sighed.

Sanji gave a deep sigh back. "Alright Deji-ch..." He looked at Deji. "Deji." Deji smiled.

Deji patted his right shoulder. "Sure. and thanks for not calling me 'Deji-chan'. Can I have some ice cream?" Sanji took out a cigarette, but Deji's hand took it away from his hand. "Please don't make it smell like ashes." The cook nodded. "Okay Deji..." She walked towards Zoro. Sanji looked at her and whispered, "...chan!" Deji's head turned and her face showed she was a little annoyed. But when she turned her head, Sanji had quickly turned on his heels and walked towards the kitchen. Deji just sighed and turned to walk back to Zoro.

Luffy and Suta were on the floor on their backs, arms out. They were bored, and you could tell because they were moaning in a monotonous tone, "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOREED," like a zombie. Each moan got louder and louder. "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORED..."

"There may be an island nearby..." Usopp sighed.

"BOOOOOO--ISLAND?!" Luffy quickly seated himself on the lion head while Suta was leaning on the railing in search of an island. "SHIMASHIMASHIMASHIMA...(ect.)" Robin was laughing. "I see Captain-san and Suta nee-chan are enjoying their search of land, right, Navigator-san?" Nami nodded. "They're all idiots, but thats what makes them... well...THEM!" She smiled. "But trust me, I am LESS than eager to go to that SCARY ISLAND Kokoro-san was talking about earlier. There is no way I would want to go to Thriller Bark anytime soon. I've never been there, but it sounds scary enough." Chopper screamed too after hearing Nami talk about Thriller Bark. "KOKORO-SAN MADE IT SOUND TOO SCARY! I DONT WANT TO GO THERE!!" He 'hid' behind Nami's chair.

Upstairs, you could hear a certian blond cook drop to the ground, hearing the words "Kokoro-san", remembering so quickly that she was a mermaid. His fist pounded hard on the ground multiple times in frustration.

"Alright,Navigator-san, Doctor-san, but there may be undiscovered treasure. Oh well, too bad we're not going..." Nami suddenly had beli's in her eyes. "WHO SAID WE'RE NOT GOING?! IF THERES TREASURE, SAIL AWAY!" Chopper's jaw dropped to the ground. "N-NO WAY!! NAMI!!" His eyes were also tearing a little. "YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS!!" She just smiled at Chopper. "Gomen!" He fell.

Franky walked up to Usopp, yawning. "Morning, guys! Did the cook make breakfast yet?"

"Yeah, about 3 hours ago! You overslept again!" Franky chuckled. "I guess i was working too hard last night on the new addition to the Thousand Sunny Go!" Usopp looked up to him with his wrench in his hand. "Really, what is it?"

"Surprise! You don't find out 'till I'm done!" Of course, Franky was working on the Mini Merry, but since he knew how much it hurt them when they burned Merry, he decided to keep it a secret.

Luffy squinted his eyes and looked around. he shaded his eyes with his hand and looked around. He just saw one island far away, with a big forest. He also saw something lying on the sand. Luffy's smile turned into a giant grin. "MINNA!! MINNA!! I FOUND A REALLY COOL ISLAND OVER THERE!! LOOK! LOOK!" He screamed, pointing to the island hard. Suta was looking through binoculars backwards. "WHERE?! WHERE?! ITS TOO FAR AWAY!!" Suta screamed loud. Usopp sweatdropped. "Right..."

Luffy waved his arms in the air. "ANOTHER ISLAND! ANOTHER ISLAND! I CANT WAIT TO GO! WHOOHOO!!" Suta dropped her binoculars and did the same. "Woah, we sailed fast! KEEP IT UP, DUDES!!" Everyone in the crew sweatdropped, except for Luffy, of course.

"SET SAIL!!"

At the Island...

Luffy and Suta jumped down from the ship in awe and looked around everywhere for something cool. Nami, Sanji and Zoro came too, just not as immediately. Chopper was staying with Usopp, Deji and Franky, watching Usopp build, while Robin was enjoying her book, not really noticing anything past Sanji going to bring her lemonade. Luffy found what he saw lying on the sand eariler, it was a person. But in Sanji's eyes, it was terrible to look at.

It was a girl. She had pink hair tied into a ponytail. Her purple t-shirt was ripped up to about an inch and a half under her chest, and her jeans were ripped too. One sleeve (or whatever its called for pants) went up to her knee. The other was ripped halfway up her shin, and the side of it was ripped almost halfway up her thigh. She had a couple scars on her ankle and she was bruised.

From the sight of it, she had been washed ashore, and the bruises were because she was hit against rocks. Luffy was sitting next to her, pushing her bangs aside, poking her forehead. He was poking for about 30 seconds, then stopped to ask, "Oi, is she alive?"

Sanji sat next to Luffy in the sand, hovering over her to put his ear on the left side of her chest. "Wow. We meet a dead girl out of nowhere and the first thing you do is perv over her? You ARE an ero cook." Sanji got up and turned to Zoro. "I'm checking to see if she if she's alive, moron!" The cook put his ear on her chest again to check.

"Well couldn't you just check her pulse then?" He made an angry face at the swordsman. "Urusai!"

Suta and Luffy tilted their heads to the side. "What's a pulse?" Nami sighed. "It's where you feel a heartbeat, other than at your heart. you can find it on your wrist or neck, usually." The two nodded. "I see."

The cook stood up, sighing. "She's alive. Let's just hope we keep it that way." He kneeled down again and picked up the girl from her place in the sand. "She's a little wet, so she must have been here for a couple of hours, just lying in the sand." He was just staring at her for a few seconds, making sure she's alive, seeing her also breathe from her mouth. Then he turned his head to Nami.

"Nami-san, can you please re-dress her in different clothes? I'll bring her up to the ship." Nami walked back to the ship. "Sure." The cook smiled and followed her.

Usopp, Franky, Chopper and Deji looked up at Sanji, who walked right past them. "What're you holding, Sanji?" Chopper asked. "A lady. She seems to have been washed ashore by those hard waves we saw a couple of hours ago. Remember?" They nodded.

"Did you check her pulse to see if she's alive?" Deji asked. "No, I put my ear over her heart." She sweatdropped. "You just had to put your ear there, didn't you?" Sanji blushed a little. "I didn't mean to do THAT..." Franky smiled. "After she wakes up, Luffy's gonna ask her to be on the crew, isn't he?" Usopp looked at Franky. "Knowing him, of COURSE he would!" Sanji just kept walking to the women's room.

As Nami was just sitting on the bed, staring at the ceiling, Sanji walked in and put the girl on the bed next to her. She stood up, saying, "I'll give her something warm to wear." She picked out blue flannel pajamas with multicolored stars everywhere. When she turned around, she looked at Sanji. "Sanji-kun, can i change her now?" Sanji knew what she meant. Nami didn't want him to watch while she was redressing the pink-haired girl. Or ANY girl for that matter. "Okay, Nami-swan" He walked out the door and to the kitchen.

Luffy and Suta were playing tag on deck. They were running around the whole Sunny, actually. Suta realized how fast he was running, so she stopped in her tracks, while an unexpecting Luffy ran past her, but when he tried to stop, he crashed into the door, with his whole upper body inside the next room. The door fell off its hinges and the bottom of it skidded along the floor until his head hit the wall in front of him. And then he stopped. "LUFFY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Luffy tried to get out of his spot, but it was hard. His arms were stuck in the door, and his head was on the ground, while his legs were kicking in the air. His head was near the corner of the room. It was hard to speak with his face on the floor too. "Well, me and Suta are playing tag...and she stopped, and...I ended up here!" Nami's vein popped. "I'm changing this girl into DRY clothes, and you just had to jump by?"

"IT WASN'T MY FAULT! AND NOBODY TOLD ME!!" Luffy yelled, using his head to push himself off the wall. Nami turned back to the girl, ignoring Luffy. She just buttoned the shirt and then she was all done. "There. You can..." She just forgot Luffy couldn't get up. Suta walked in, after waiting about a minute or two, to see that Luffy was stuck. Both girls grabbed one leg and pulled. Soon, he was sitting on his butt, STILL stuck in the door! "Arigatou!!" He banged his head against the door, trying to break it. BAM! BAM! BAM! The door split in two. "YOOOOOOSH! I'm free!!" Suta smiled just like Luffy. Luffy did the same. Sanji walked in. "What happened?"

Nami turned to Sanji. "Suta and Luffy playing tag."

"Oh."

The 4 heard a yawn behind them. They turned, seeing the girl was awake. She opened her eyes, then rubbed them. She stretched a little, then was confused as she saw herself in warm pajamas, in shelter. She turned her head and saw four pirates in the room. "Wh...where am I?" The cook sat on the chair in front of the bed. "Are you alright, miss?" He asked softly. "I think so..." Her green eyes were about half open. The cook smiled. He pet her hair. "I'm glad." She sat up.

"Oi, she's awake?" Luffy and Suta ran to her and Sanji. "YO!!" She smiled a little. "Yo." She looked up at Nami. "How long have I been here?" Nami scratched her head. "About...half an hour."

"How did you find me? And how long was I there?"

Luffy decided to answer this time. "Well, we found you on an island, but I dunno how long you were there. Sanji said you might have been there a few hours because you were only a little wet. How come you were on that island anyway?" She looked down. "Well... it's a long story...but after you skip all the details, I was caught in crashing waves in a storm. Maybe after I passed out, I was washed ashore." She stopped for a second. "Wait, who's Sanji?" The cook smiled and waved at her. She saw him in the corner of her eye. She turned her head. "Hi to you too. I'm Takono." He took her hand and kissed it. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Takono-chan. You may call me 'Sanji-kun'." Takono blinked. "Uh... Okay."

"Yo! I'm Monkey D. Luffy! This is Suta and Nami!"

"I think I've seen your bounties before." She stared at Sanji. "Yours is WAY off."

He sweatdropped. "I know..." She was just looking around, and after about 10 seconds she decided to brush away the hair covering Sanji's left eye. "Some hair's in the way here. It doesn't bother you?"

He took her wrist before his hair uncovered his eye. "No. And...well... that just makes it a mystery...'What's behind my hair'?"

"Well let's see!" She tried pushing her hand so she can push off his hair, but he didn't want his hair moved.

The green-haired swordsman walked in, just as Sanji accidentally let go of her wrist and she whacked him in the face. Sanji fell backwards in his chair from the impact, just at Zoro's feet. "Only a few minutes awake and she already hates you, ero-cook?"

She took back her hand. "He's ero?" Sanji stood up, rubbing his head, looking at Zoro. "No, I'm not!"

"As far as I see, he's a complete gentleman!" He blinked. Whens the last time he heard a girl say that? He turned his head to face Takono and he had a big smile on his face and a heart eye. "Takono-chan I KNEW you'd believe me!" She had a BIG sweatdrop on her forehead. "NOW I'm getting the idea you're ero..." He couldn't hear her. He wasn't even listening. He was too happy about her calling him a gentleman, he couldn't help but be happy. She was waving her hand in front of his face. "Sanji?"

She had an idea. "He's pretty ero, isnt he? Oh well. A guy like him couldn't get a girl anyway." She smiled at Zoro. "Unlike you.. You actually seem like a better gentleman than this ero-cook, cuuuuuuuu-tie!" she said in a flirty tone. Zoro and Sanji's jaws both dropped. "NANIIIIIIIII?!" She was laughing. "I'm kidding! I'm kidding!! Haha!!" Zoro grumbled.

"Sorry, I couldn't get him to snap out of it! I'm Takono!"

"It's okay. That's one way to get a pervert's attention. I'm Zoro. And by the way, I'm already...in...love..." His tone got quieter as he said that.

Suta crossed her arms. "I'm sorry, Zoro, but you're not my type."

"I DIDN'T MEAN YOU!" Luffy hugged Suta tight. "MINE!" Suta smiled. Deji walked in the room out of curiosity. "She's awake already? I thought it'd take a longer while!"

Takono looked at both Deji and Zoro as Deji wrapped her arm around Zoro's arm like a chain. "Is she the one you're in love with?" Deji blushed a little. Zoro looked at his feet. "Um..." He whispered in a growling tone. Takono smiled. "Aww! You two are so cute!" Deji scratched the back of her head. "Arigatou!"

Sanji petted Takono's pink hair. "Would you like me to cook you something?" She blinked. "You can cook?"

"Why, of course! I'm a former first class chef of Baratie." She blinked again. "I've heard of that place!" Sanji smiled.

"It's that floating restaurant with the best chefs known near the grand line? I heard there was a chef with potential who's also a ladies man. Seems like a nice guy." Sanji smiled harder. Wait'll he tells her that chef is him...

"He's also an idiot. What kind of person almost kills his own customers? The moron!" ...or not. He had blue lines all over his head. Deji was just laughing. Suta and Luffy cocked their heads to the side. "I don't get it."

Sanji stood up, facing veryone but Takono. "Everyone to the kitchen. I'll be there in a minute to make lunch. Everyone just shrugged and walked out. Deji's last comment was, "Have fun with your girlfriend!" Takono curled up, still sitting, grumbling, I'm not his girlfriend...

The cook turned around and held out his hand to her. She placed her hand in his and he pulled her out of bed slowly. She put her feet on the floor and stood up. She was 2 or 3 inches shorter than Nami. She took her hand back. "Uh...Now it LOOKS like we're a couple! We don't even know each other that well yet!" She scratched the back of her head. Sanji put his hands in his pockets. "So you want any lunch?" Was he kidding? Takono was starving! But she didn't want to be rude. "Sure! But..." She looked down at her body, then back at the cook. "...you sure I can go in pajamas?"

"Today's a good day!!" He ruffles up her hair for about 2 seconds. "Its so cute how you're so short!" Takono crossed her arms and looked the other way. "M' not short." His smile faded away. "Sorry..." He turned around. "Are you coming, or should I give your plate to the captain?" She uncrossed her arms and ran outside. "YOU BET I'M HUNGRY!!" The cook walked past her, and she knew she just had to follow. "Of course my lovely, I wouldn't dare give away your plate! That wouldn't be polite towards a lady! Plus, you're a guest!" She shrugged. "A'rite."

In the kitchen...

Takono walked in with her arms behind her head. Everyone was eating quietly, except for Luffy, who you could hear chomping sounds come out of every bite. "Hi..." Everyone looked back at her. Franky, who was already standing, walked up to her and held out his hand for a handshake. "Yo! I'm Furankii!!" He accented his name a little." She smiled. "Nice to meetcha, FURANKII!!" She mimicked his voice and shook his hand. She was pretty surprised to see his hand, it was HUGE!" He looked at her for a second. "Oh...I see...youre pretty freaked out that I'm a cyborg."

She nodded. "A little...yeah..." He pulled off the skin on his hand to reveal his robotic hand. She flinched, not expecting that at all. "Y...your skin..."

"Er...long story. But I ended up being run over by a sea train. The body parts I couldn't use anymore got replaced by robotic parts.

"Sea train?" She thought for a second. "The grand line is weird. I was born here and the weirdest thing I've ever met before today was my hair. That, and... a half-wolf man who can turn into a lion."

Usopp looked up with calamari stuck in his fork. "If I ever see that, I'll use my 5-star kicks on his rear end JUST like how I did pile drive a hippo 5 years ago." Takono just stared at him. "So youre saying you couldn't kill the guy for your life?" Usopp flicked his wrist each hand wave, whispering "Oi, oi, oi..." Takono looked down at her left to see a 2 foot tall blue nosed reindeer next to her. "Aww...you guys have a pet here? Its adorable how he has a bounty! And I guess I'm not the shortest on the ship now!" Chopper became mad and grew big. "WHO'RE YOU CALLING SMALL?!" She fell to the floor. "I TAKE THAT BACK! NOW I'M SMALLEST!"

Chopper shrunk to his normal size again, dancing around. "And who're you calling adorable, meanie?? I'm not cute!!" Takono sensed a giant question mark hovering over her head. Deji laughed. "Don't worry! He's just like that! but whatever you do, don't call him a monster."

"WHO'RE YOU CALLING A MONSTER?!" Chopper grew big again and yelled at Deji.

"I TOLD HER NOT TO CALL YOU A MONSTER!!" Takono had an idea. "YOURE SO CUTE EVEN WHEN YOURE BIG!!" Chopper became small again and danced in his spot. "Baka! I told you before, I'm NOT CUTE!!"

"Alright, stop fooling around. Takono-chan, why're you on the floor?"

"Uh...I tripped." She stood up and sat on a chair next to Luffy, taking food from the table.

"You may not want to sit there," Nami warned. Takono just saw Luffy quickly eating the remainder of his food, then at Nami. "Why?" Luffy took a piece of her bread and gulped it in a second.

She sweatdropped. "Oh. Luffy, theres enough food for everyone right there! Heck, theres enough for SECONDS!! THIRDS even!"

"Yeah, but he had seventeenths already..." Usopp whispered. Takonos jaw dropped on her plate. Luffy reached for another piece of food from her plate. She slapped his hand away. "WHAT'D I JUST SAY?" The straw hatted boy took his hand back and took food from the table like everybody else. She smiled. "Good boy!"

The blond cook placed a 5 foot high layer cake in the middle of the table. It was completely white, put had chocolate frosting lining the edges. Each layer had Hershey Kiss-shaped swirls in different colors. Usopp, Suta, Chopper, Takono and Luffy were drooling at the sight, each person with jaws dropped halfway. Stars were surrounding them all. "Well, to celebrate our new nakama, and of course, we forgot Usopp's birthday... I present to you a 7 layer cake." Each of the 4 eager crew members placed giant pieces of cake on their plates and started eating. They couldn't wait another second! "This was one of the top 5 gourmet foods in Baratie"

"ARIGATOU, SANJI!!" All five yelled. After Takono finished her piece, she exclaimed, "THIS IS AMAZING! WHOEVER TAUGHT YOU THESE RECIPES WAS A GENIUS!" Sanji's eyes turned into hearts as he twirled around in the kitchen, very happy about Takono's compliment. "SHIAWASE!!"

Luffy picked up his glass full of freshly-squeezed apple juice. "To Our new nakama, minna!"

"KANPAI!!" All 11 crew members crashed their glasses together and started drinking. The pink haired girl turned her head to Zoro. "Are you guys always this crazy?" He nodded. "Unfortunately." Everyone got back to eating and Luffy thought of what fun adventures they're going to have in the future.

ALRIGHT! I REWROTE THE STORY ALL OVER AGAIN! (whoops! caps!) It was fun to write though! But it took a while since I also wrote some in israel. JA!!
