"Nami, when are we getting there?" he whined.
Luffy was lying on the floor next to Nami's cartographer desk. She sighed. She could she his rubber face out of the corner of her eye. He was, as usually, bored. Nami had known her captain from a long time, and she already knew where this conversation was going, and there was no point in getting his hopes up.
"No, Luffy." she said returning to her work.
"No what?" Luffy said with a look of fake innocence on his face.
"No, I will not play with you." she said, not even looking up from her map which made Luffy slightly sad.
"Hmph. Then I'll go ask Usopp." He got up and opened the door.
"Wait Lu-" But he had already left. She sighed.
'MaybeIshouldhaveplayedwithhim,' she thought, feeling guilty. 'Ohwell, maybenexttime.'
"Oi! I see the island! 5 minutes in front of us!" Franky yelled from the lookout post.
Nami got up and helped the crew prepare for when they docked. They started by pulling in my sails and dividing into groups. Sanji wanted to go with Nami and she had no reason to oppose, so that was quickly settled. Luffy and Usopp, to everyone's surprise, volunteered to stay on the ship. Chopper and Robin went to by books, leaving Franky and Zoro to find something for the ship.
*FrankyandZoro*
"Bro,-" started Franky, who was quickly stopped by Zoro.
"Don't call me bro." Zoro said in a plainly toned voice. It reminded him of back when they were Water 7, and that crazy auntie practically forced him to care for her children. And even worse, his nakama almost seeing him in that girly 'Mama' shirt; except Robin had seen him. Robin.
"...can you?" finished Franky. Zoro, in his deep state of thought, hadn't heard a single word.
"What did you say?"
"I knew you lost your sense of direction, but did you lose your hearing, too? I said I can't see any places here to buy things for the ship, can you?"
"Oh. No, I can't. Let's head back to the ship and wait for the rest the crew." Zoro replied as he turned around and headed back to the ship .
'Dangit,' he thought, 'She'sgotmethinkingaboutheragain.'
*SanjiandNami*
"Where do you want to go Nami-swan~~?" said Sanji as he flailed around in love mode.
"I was thinking of finding something to eat, but like at a restaurant or something. Not romant-".
"ROMANCE! I heard there is a really nice place around the corner. I heard the locals talking about it. Romance with Nami-swan~~!" yelled Sanji. He started flailing even faster.
"San... Ugh." She knew he wasn't listening. Whatever, she thought.
After about 5 more minutes of walking, they came across a semi-large place with a banner stating the name of the restaurant, 'TheSakuraBlooms.' You had to about to a register and order which cut the restaurant's elegance in half. Sanji went up to order while Nami found a seat. When she sat down, an old woman in a shirt and a ragged pair of shorts sat across from her in Sanji's seat. She had a face similar to one of a wicked witches in a Disney movie.
"I'm sorry, Miss, but that seat is ta-" Nami was quickly interrupted.
"You seem like a girl who appreciates finer things in life." said the old woman creepily.
"Well, yes. But-" As Nami tried to continue her sentence, the old woman interrupted once again.
"Then how about you buy this?" The woman opened her hands to reveal a small, circular, light blue gem; something like a light sapphire. Nami quickly grabbed it and looked at it closely. She could tell it was legitimate.
"How much?"
"2,000 beli."
"1,000 beli," Nami bargained.
"Take it. May God keep you safe." The lady then ran out of the door.
'Safe?' She thought. Just then, Sanji came with their food. After the meal they headed back to the ship, and Sanji seemed to be the most happiest man on Earth.
*ChopperandRobin*
"Robin, can I get these?" Chopper asked as he held up the 2 books.
"Of course. We have enough for each of us to get three books." Robin replied as she held the three books she had already chosen. Chopper cocked his head to the side and pointed at one of Robin's book.
"What's that one about?" The young reindeer asked.
"Hm?" Robin picked out the book from the 3 in her hand. "The Dawning Enchantress? It's about a man and woman who are completely different in: social class and personality. Then they beat the odds and fall in love."
"Oh. I think I found my 3 books."
"That's good." She sighed and looked back at 'The Dawning Enchantress.'
'ReallymakesyouwanttoliveinaFairyTale.' she thought.
*UsoppandLuffy*
"Usooooooppppppppp." Luffy whined.
"Luuuuuuuuffffyyyyyy." whined Usopp.
"Why are we soooo bored?" Luffy asked.
"I don't know." They both sighed. Luffy was thinking of what happened earlier today. He wondered why Nami didn't want to hang out with him.
"Luffy? Luffy, are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. I'm gonna go find a snack." He walked toward the kitchen.
'Why?' he thought.
*Witheveryonebackontheship*
It was late, so right after dinner everyone went to sleep. Nami slept with her new-found gem under her pillow. While the crew slept, and midnight struck, the gem began to glow. First, it turned red, a dark shade of green, soon orange, brown, yellow, slowly turning into a pink, and then a purple. It ended with a glow of blue until it turned completely black.
