The ocean was calm. The only noise that could be heard was the waves sloshing against the side of the ship as it sailed smoothly into the dim harbor. Well, unless you counted the hyperactive Luffy that was currently dancing around on the moonlit deck.
"ZORO! Put the anchor down!" Luffy yelled.
Zoro stirred from his seemingly eternal slumber. "What?" he asked, still half asleep.
"I SAID, PUT THE ANCHOR DOWN!" Luffy repeated, louder this time.
Zoro looked around, confused. "I'm not holding the anchor, you moron!"
This made Luffy scratch his head. "Hey, you're right! …Then why'd I ask you to do it?"
"How the hell would I know?" Zoro was irritated. He lay down and started to drift off again.
Luffy just stood there for a while, looking confused.
Nami stepped out of the kitchen, where she had been enjoying a late-night snack. "What's all the ruckus?" she asked.
"I told Zoro to put the anchor down," Luffy explained.
Nami blinked and walked over to the railing. "Well, the anchor's still there."
"Yeah, I know. He said he wasn't holding it." He walked into the galley.
Nami face palmed. She opened her mouth to explain to Luffy what 'put the anchor down' actually meant, but then thought better of it and said something else.
"ZORO! GET UP OFF YOUR BUTT AND LOWER THE ANCHOR BEFORE WE CRASH INTO ANOTHER BOAT!"
Zoro grunted and rolled over. "I told you, I'M NOT HOLDING THE ANCHOR."
Nami growled and made an irritated noise. "SANJI!" she called.
"Yes, Nami-swan?" Sanji appeared, looking disheveled. He rubbed the sleep out of his eyes.
"Could you put the anchor down, please? Zoro here doesn't seem to know how." Nami folded her hands together and looked up at him sweetly.
"Of course! Anything for you, my sweet Nami," he said. He walked over to the railing, unhooked the anchor, and watched as it splashed into the ocean. A minute later the ship ceased moving.
Nami smiled. "Thank you, Chef Sanji," she gave him a quick kiss on the cheek before running off to bed.
Sanji collapsed on the floor, blood pouring out of his nose. The last thing he saw was Zoro standing over him, laughing, before he blacked out.
Zoro chuckled. Wasn't that smart of him? Now Sanji had to do the anchor duties and he would have more time for sleeping. He smirked. "Dumb ero-cook," he muttered.
He slid down to his napping spot at the base of the mast and sighed happily. "Sanji's gonna be mad in the morning," he murmured. "Luffy's in the kitchen."
Zoro sighed again and drifted off to sleep.
This idea just came to me out of the blue...Oh, the joy of random ideas!
