It was the anniversary of the Strawhat Pirates (Mugiwara no Ichimi) today. Luffy remembers everything about the first day when he first saw Zoro. Luffy also loved every member of the crew. He was really happy that the time has come. It was their 3rd year anniversary (2 years time-skip)! It would be the first time they spent it together.

However, the rest of the crew didn't remember. They thought it was just another ordinary Luffy-crazy day. Except today, Luffy was at least 10 times more annoying, hyper and crazy.

"Wake up everybody!" Luffy shouted before even Brooke had a chance to start playing the "wake up" song. Everybody groaned at the slightly annoying voice that was waking them up. "Shut up Luffy!" they shouted in unison. Luffy's face fell for a second. ONLY a second. He decided that he couldn't be let down by this. So, he continued.

It was about 3:00 in the afternoon and everyone was pissed off at Luffy.

He disturbed Zoro's training

He accidently spilt orange juice on Nami's maps.

He didn't follow the rules of Usopp's game

He ate all the lunch as soon as it was set down, so Sanji had to cook more

He threw some of Chopper's expensive medical herbs over board

He accidently ripped the pages in Robin's favourite book

He drank Franky's cola without asking

He broke one of the strings on Brooke's violin

Everyone was fed up with Luffy's behavior. So much that they walked up to Luffy and told him and scolded him right in the face. " What is with you today?" Nami shouted. " Are you just trying to be extra stupid today?" Sanji yelled. All the crew members were scolding him. "We decided that you can't talk to us or come near us, can't talk to us and you have to stay in your room and not come out for a week. Sanji will bring you only 2 plates of food (4 plates less than usual) and if we catch you out here, we will kill you." Nami announced. The crew knew that there was no way in hell Luffy would do this, especially getting only 2 plates of food, but they thought it was worth a shot (not really). "But guys, today is-", Luffy started. "No more excuses!" Nami shouted. Luffy looked hurt, but he decided that they were right. "Fine." He replied. Naturally, this shocked the crew. Was Luffy actually agreeing to this? Boy, they were happy.

Luffy walked back to his room. He laid himself down onto the bed. He stared at the ceiling and sighed. If that's what my nakama want, than I'll do it. He then drifted slowly into deep sleep.

It was dinnertime. "Oi ! You lot of pigs minus Nami-swan and Robin-chwan, its dinner time!" , Sanji's voice was heard all throughout the ship. Luffy could hear it, too. His stomach growled, but he held back the urge to run out, dive into the dining room and start eating at 300 km/h.

Everyone rushed into the dining room, not expecting only Sanji to be there, setting the table and all the food still there. Oh yeah, Luffy's in his room. They thought. They were quite happy, actually, no more food stealing, random shouts, fighting or messy eating for a whole WEEK!

They started eating. However, it was completely silent. The only noise that was made was probably the knives and forks/ chopsticks on the plates. It only took 2 minutes for Usopp to burst out saying, " It's so boring without Luffy!" everyone nodded their heads, but none were willing to give in to Luffy, so they just stayed there, eating in boring silence.

When they finished their dead silent meal, they found out that they had 10 plates of meat left. Luffy's share. How they missed that loud, annoying brat. "I guess it's out of habit." Sanji shrugged. "I'll give the food to him after I'm done with the dishes. I'll pack the other 8 plates for next time."

Everyone stayed in the kitchen with Sanji, because they were bored. Everything they did seemed lifeless without Luffy's annoying shouts and his brightening grins. But, they sat in complete silence, in their own thoughts, they'll never admit it, but how they wished for Luffy to come and stupidly interrupt their thoughts like always.

10 minutes past in utter silence. "I can't take it anymore! I need to freaking see that freaking stupid, grinning face of his!" Usopp suddenly yelled. "We want to see him too." Replied the crew in unison. "Let's go apologize to him." Robin said, calmly. "Wait, I'll bring his food with us too." Sanji said, before they left for Luffy's room.

Luffy's stomach growled for the up tenth time. "Shut up, stupid stomach! Sanji's gonna bring the food soon!"

Everyone burst into Luffy's room. Luffy was sitting on his bed, emotionless. "Luffy, we're very sorry about what we've done! Please forgive us and we've brought your dinner." Everyone (minus Luffy) said. Luffy looked shocked for a moment and then he smiled a small smile. He reached for a note pad and wrote 'it's okay, guys. I forgive you.' In messy, Luffy-like writing. Everyone smiled, but realized that he wasn't talking to them. "Luffy, you do know that you can talk now, right?" Chopper asked. Luffy nodded and wrote something else. 'But, these are the rules you guys set up and I'm going to follow them.' Luffy smiled. Everyone else was flabbergasted. Luffy was actually telling them that he wanted to stay silent! They went away to discuss about what they should do, leaving Luffy to eat his meal.

"He wants to, so why not?" Zoro said, after they reached the sitting room. "Idiot! Do you want to spend the rest of the week boring like today, too?" Nami shouted. Zoro looked hesitant before he said, "if my captain wants it, than it shall be given to him." "oh, Marimo, spoken like a true gentleman." "Shut up, love-cook." "Cut it out! You guys!" Nami yelled before they broke into yet another full on fight. "yes, Nami-swaaaannnnn." Sanji cooed. They reached the decision to let Luffy be quiet for the week.

When Sanji walked into Luffy's room to collect his dishes, Luffy was holding up the note book and on it, was written 'call the rest of them hear.'

The rest of the crew arrived in Luffy's room.

Luffy gave them each a beautifully wrapped present."Hmm? Luffy? What is this SUPPPEERRR present?" Franky asked, curious. 'Open it' They did as they were told. Zoro got a new belly warmer, Nami got a stylish shirt that looked quite pricey, Usopp got new goggles, Sanji got a set of kitchenware, Chopper got 5 books about rare diseases, Robin got history books, Franky go a cola- X-tra large pack and Brooke got a brand new violin.

" Oh? What's the occasion?"Robin asked. Luffy smiled sadly, which sent arrows of guilt into their hearts, and pointed to the calendar on the wall. They each turned to look at the messy calendar. It was that day. On the day's date it read, 'Met Zoro~ Mugiwara Pirates start!~' in colourful writing.

Each crew member felt a pang of guilt into their hearts. How could they forget? Luffy must have been waiting the whole day! They each wanted to hammer their heads on the wall.

'Don't blame yourselves. It's not your fault.'

Why isn't Luffy angry? It must have been the most precious day he ever had, yet why did he forgive them even when they forgot?

'I'm sleepy. Good night.' Luffy wrote before letting out a huge yawn. They laughed nervously before they left him to sleep.

"I can't believe we freaking forgot the most important freaking day of Luffy's freaking life!" Zoro yelled

only one thing was running through all their minds at the moment... how are they supposed to survive a week without their captain?
