Sanji slowly opened his eyes. Hi was lying in his hammock on the ship. He didn't feel good, not good at all. He watched his sleeping crew mates as his thoughts went back to when they had arrived at that island two days ago.
Sanji had just finished preparing and serving lunch when he heard Usopp yelling: "Island ahead!" Followed by Luffy's outburst of joy, and then a loud crashing was heard. Sanji sighted as he heard Franky and Usopp cursing an yelling at their captain.
It was a large island with a big mountain in the middle, surrounded by a thick forest. They docked in a natural harbor and of course Luffy rushed in to the forest without thinking. Nami just shook his head and turned to face the rest of the crew.
"Ok, listen up, this is what we are going to do!" As soon Nami opened her mouth Sanji had gone all wiggling with heart in his eyes.
"We need supplies, that means Usopp, Sanji, Franky and me are going to look for food. Robin, Chopper and Brook go and look for Luffy."
"Zoro", her eyes narrowed at the swordsman, "you are going to guard. Understand? We don't need you to get lost." Zoro sighted and nodded, as Sanji again went all wiggling.
"Nami, is so hot when she is commanding people", he wiggled, hart in his eyes, but no one really taking any notice of him.
Sanji looked after Bobin-chwan's back as she, Chopper and Brook took off after Luffy. He turned and spotted Nami crawling over a fallen tree, making her skirt crawl up a little. Again he went all wiggling and offered to help her over, she "kindly" refused.
It had been a god day. Apart from some minor issues, like Usopp getting the "I-have-to-go-back-to-the-ship-or-I-will" dizzies, or when he was running around saying he would be killed when a spider had landed on his shoulder. And when Usopp had turned to Sanji to get him to take it off, Sanji send him flying through the air. He wasn't a big fan of spider either.
But all in all it had been a peaceful day, and they had found supplies and all, until they ran into Luffy and his "rescue" team. Chopper was in panic, tear streaming down his face.
"We are going to be killed!" he yelled jumping in to Franky's arms.
"Even though I'm already dead, skull joke!" Came from their favorite skeleton. They looked confused at Robin, ho after all was the most reliable of them. But before she could open her mouth Luffy jumped down before her.
"Cannibals! And they are really strong!" His eyes sparkling. Robin just nodded in conformation.
"This is no time to be impressed by them!" Nami and Sanji yelled at him.
"Either way, I suggest that we get the hell out of here", Robin said, a slightly hint of panic in her voice. Just then they realized the seriousness of the situation. They grabbed their supplies, Franky still holding Chopper in his arms, and sprinted towards the bay and the sunny.
Luckily it seems that there were no cannibals at this side of the island, so they managed to get to the ship unseen. As they got on the ship they dropped everything, hoist the sail and headed out to the sea. It was then that Brookes voice reached Sanji's ear:
"Zoro? Where are you?"
Sanji feelt his face go peal. He quickly turned towards the island they had just left.
"That shitty swordsman" he mumbled as he jumped to the deck. Before he even realized what he was doing he was standing at the railing, looking over his shoulder, speaking calmly.
"Get out of here, I will get Zoro and meet you back at the bay at sunrise. Nami, you said that the log was already set?" He met her eyes.
"Yes, but "
"If we don't show up tomorrow… expect the worst and leave us behind."
"Sanji, don't g…" Nami begun, but was cut of once more.
"Don't argue Nami! Sanji felt bad for yelling at her, but he didn't have time to apologize. He could do that when he was back. He looked back at his crew mates, before he jumped out in the water.
Sanji crawled up at the beach looking back at the ship. He shook his head, trying to get the water out of his heir. He slowly got up to his feet and began walking straight ahead. He had no idea where Zoro could be, his sense of direction was one of the grand lines many mysteries. But Sanji knew he wodn't leave until he had found Zoro and dragged his sorry ass back to the ship. And then, Sanji grind a devilish smile, he was going to kill that shitty moss head.
