I own nothing but my OC's All rights go to Eiichiro Oda if I had made it it wouldn't have been good.
Kimiko was sleeping next to her brother while he was patting her head, she was subconsciously purring.
"So what the story of you and your sister? Johnny asked.
"Me and Kimiko are royal runaways. Kimiko would train from our father to be the worlds greatest swordsman. We loved that he was pirate and thought it was amazing but we were never allowed to talk about it to our friends. When I was four our father had come back from sea with a Devils Fruit. He had told us not to mess with it, but Kimiko didn't listen she didn't think anything would happen but she was wrong. The next morning she had two tails and ears and our step mother went berserk. She kept yelling about how she wouldn't keep a Devil Fruit child in her Village and later that day our father left, as he said, banished. After that our step mother was very horrendous to Kimiko, up until we ran away." Dachi answered.
"But your sister looked nothing like you or Hawkeye." Zoro stated looking at the girls hair.
"Our real mother, was beautiful, from what Papi says; Kimiko looks just like her. Kimmy never talks about her anymore she only told me that she died from a sickness." Dachi said scratching behind her ears she purred louder.
"She absolutely loves this." Dachi added."It's one of the best ways to calm her."
After a few minutes later Kimiko stretched and rolled onto her stomach and then laid there, she then sat up, legs folded under her, and she looked at Dachi and scrunched her nose.
"I smell fish men." She said standing up.
"Kimmy! Don't move so much your wounds aren't healed completely. As I've observed, the more blood you lose the longer it takes for you wounds to heal so be careful." Dachi said.
"I'm fine, don't worry so much. There are three fish men over there." Kimiko said pointing to the dock they were getting close to.
"Let's think of a plan and not do anything stupid." Usopp said.
"Let's attack." Zoro said ready to unsheathe his sword
"I just said let's not do anything stupid!" Usopp yelled.
Zoro began talking about what they were going to do until Usopp and Johnny knocked him out. Kimiko ran over to see if her was alright.
"You idiots! He is our al-" She was cut off as Usopp knocked her out.
Later Kimiko awoke to the yelling of Zoro and Usopp. The yelling was cut short as Dachi pointed out two fish men were coming their way. Usopp and Johnny jumped overboard but Dachi stayed and started to untie them.
"Dachi, go." Kimiko told him.
"Kimiko I'm not leaving you." He said.
"Dachi, go don't worry we can handle ourselves."He sighed and went to edge of the boat. "Also tell them if anything happens to you, even a tiny scratch, I'll kill them." She added before he jumped.
A few minutes later two fish men jumped up on to the boat. They looked the two tied up shipmates over and tried to figure out what happen. The two Fish men docked the boat and carried them off the Arlong.
...
"Last time, Neko, why did you come here?" Arlong asked his long nose stabbing Kimiko's.
"Sightseeing." She said.
"Wow, you two must be really stupid or have a lot of guts. Either way we fish men are superior to you puny humans, we breath in water and on land we out rank you're strength and we are smarter. Trying to fight us is defying nature." Arlong bragged.
A cat fish lady who was clinging to Arlong spoke up. "You'll be a nice feast." How ironic a fish eating cat.
"I"m sick of hearing your big ideas Arlong." A females voice said.
Zoro's eyes widened at the sight of who the voice belonged to; Nami.
"Nami you know I wasn't talking about you. You are quiet special, you're our greatest navigator and a great value to this crew you've always been." Arlong complemented.
"Why did he call you his navigator. You don't expect me to believe you work for him do you?" Zoro asked.
"Friends of yours Nami?" Arlong asked.
"Of course not! He's just someone that thought I wouldn't steal his treasure from under his nose and I don't even know her." Nami smirked.
"So this is the Nami you told me about, she's a real keeper." Kimiko raised her eyebrow. "I thought you said she couldn't stand pirates?" Kimiko asked feigning confusion.
"It was just an act." She moved her arm to show the tattoo to prove she was part of Arlong's crew.
Zoro gaped at the sight and Kimiko was starting to see that he was really affected by this realization. It irritated Kimiko that Nami didn't seem to care about it.
"I guess you get it now, i just used you to get what I wanted. You guys are real stupid." Nami laughed.
"She had you completely fooled. She's cold blooded, she traded her family for money, so don't feel too bad." Nami paled at Arlong's words.
Zoro raised an eyebrow at the sight.
"If I were you I'd give up and forget the day you met her." Arlong said.
"I don't need to. I didn't trust her anyways. If she turned out to be a serial killer I wouldn't be surprised." Zoro said honestly.
"Fine, get the hell out of here." She said angrily.
Zoro smirked at her words and shoved himself into the water, hooked his foot on Kimiko's bindings and pulled her along. Her ears flatted in horror.
"I can't swim you idiot!" Kimiko yelled before she fell into the water.
Kimiko and Zoro slowly sank, Zoro watched to surface, occasionally releasing air bubbles, Kimiko glared at him thinking of a million ways to torture him to death. After a few minutes Kimiko accidentally opened her mouth to breath but only took in water. She felt her restraints being pulled in a few seconds she was on land again. Kimiko yanked her self from Zoro's grip to roll over and cough out the water. After she was done coughing she saw Nami walking into the building.
"When I get free I'm going to kill you!" Kimiko looking at him through her wet hair.
"Yeah, yeah, whatever." He said trying to listen to what a fish man was saying to Arlong.
"A long nosed weirdo." the fish man described.
...
Kimiko and Zoro were now locked in a cell, Kimiko used her claws to cut their bindings. Zoro wanted to attack now but Kimiko was the only way to get out so she was going to wait until someone came to deal with them. Also she kept worrying if her brother was alright. If Usopp was causing trouble and being hunted so was Dachi.
"You alright kitten?" Zoro asked.
"Don't call me that." She glared at him.
"Why not, you look like a kitten." He laughed at the red the covered her cheeks in embarrassment.
Suddenly the door to their cell opened to reveal Nami. Nami looked to their wrists, and took notice the were unbound. Looking at them she dropped their swords at the door and turned to leave.
"Get out of here quick. Arlong will be back soon." She walked out leaving the door wide open.
After a minute Kimiko stood up and walked over to their weapons she put her in the respective places on her waist and tossed Zoro his. As the two made it out the exit the had a encounter with a few fish men but it wasn't a problem.
"She tells us to run but we have nowhere to go plus we have to bring her back with us." Zoro said as he sat down in Arlong's seat.
"You sure know how to pick 'em." Kimiko teased.
"You jealous Kitten?" Zoro teased back, enjoying the bright color on her cheeks.
"Don't call me that!" She yelled.
...
Zoro was subconsciously petting Kimiko, who was sleeping on the arm rest of the chair as a small cat. Suddenly someone started talking. Zoro looked to where the voice was coming from and saw three fishing poles. He was talking about how it's the gutsiest fish in the east blue and how even he-'Hotchan of Arlong's crew' couldn't pull it from the waters. Zoro stood, waking Kimiko, and went to investigate.
Kimiko jumped up onto the wall and Zoro stood on a large rock. The two saw it was a fish man.
"You are indeed the gutsyist fish in all the east blue: me! Hold on that's weird." He was talking to himself.
"Sure is." Zoro agreed, making the fish man look up.
"Who are you? Speak up now!" He then pointed to himself. "Who me? I'm Hotchan." Kimiko tilted her head confused
"You a fish man too?" Zoro asked.
"Yes, I'm an octopus fish man." He was doing a weird dance, where he was moving his arms in a wave pattern. " And it looks to me you're just a human with a kitty." He said still doing the dance.
"Yup." Zoro confirmed.
"A marine or possibly a guest?" He asked.
Kimiko and Zoro looked at all the dead fish men behind the wall.
"You could say that."
Arlong's not here is he?" Hotchan asked.
"No, I thought you might know where he is." Zoro said.
"Apparently there's some long nosed guy causing trouble. Arlong locked two people here and went to Cocoyashi Village to hunt down that pesky brat." Hotchan explained.
"Cocoyashi village," Zoro sighed as he jumped down from the wall along with Kimiko. "How do I get there?"
"Get in." Hotchan pointed to the giant vase in the water. "You're Arlong's guest I will take you where you need to go."
"Kimiko!" Zoro called as Kimiko jumped inside with out a second thought.
Zoro rolled his eyes and followed her into the vase. Hotchan dove under the water and started to move the vase in the direction of Cocoyashi village. Zoro held Kimiko so she didn't jump out to catch a fish. Four minutes and a eight scratches later the arrived at Cocoyashi village. The two began walking around and asking about Usopp only to hear he was captured taken back to Arlong. When they were in the forest Kimiko shifted back into her human form.
"Why'd you change? You were adorable." Zoro teased as her swords and bandages appeared.
"Shut up, asshat." She took off running towards Arlong park.
After a bit the whole island began to shake. They stopped and wondered if it was an earthquake or Arlong's doing. Once Zoro caught sight of what was causing the shaking he paled with fear. Kimiko turned to see was it was but did get to see it as it slammed it them. A few seconds later they crashed into a cliff.
"What the hell is wrong with you!" Kimiko yelled standing out of the debris.
As soon as she stepped out of them she was greeted by a lovesick Sanji. He flirted up a storm, all Kimiko could do was stared wide eyed at him and blush slightly at the comments falling from his mouth. Suddenly Zoro pulled her from his reach and started yelling at him.
"Stop flirting with her, it's not the time!" Zoro yelled.
"Then you stop touching her!" Sanji yelled back.
"Hey guys we're her to pick up Nami. Also where's Usopp, Johnny and Dachi?" Luffy asked.
"Usopp been captured by Arlong, we need to hurry before he's killed." Zoro started going towards Arlong park.
"Too late he's already dead." Johnny said with Dachi next to him.
"Wha-" Zoro started.
"Nami killed him." Dachi said before starting to sob.
"Dachi...?" She took a few steps towards him.
"We saw her stab him!" Dachi cried running into her arms.
...
Kimiko shifted into a kitten knowing how much Dachi loved it. Luffy was yelling at Johnny about Nami being their friend and how she didn't kill Usopp. Frankly, Kimiko didn't believe it either, she felt that Nami had another reason for being in Arlong's crew but she didn't know what. Suddenly a voice sounded from behind them all.
"What are you doing here?" The voice belonged to Nami.
"What do you mean? You're our friend, we came to get you." Luffy said picking up his fallen hat.
"Friend? Don't make me laugh, you're just pathetic enough to deserve each other." Nami said.
"Damn you! You killed Usopp I watched you!" Johnny yelled.
"That's right, so why don't you kill me for revenge." Nami said.
"What?" Dachi asked.
"Because of your friend's idiocy Arlong is ready to kill Zoro and the rest of your crew. If you stay on this island you will die. So you can chose to leave and live or stay and die." Nami told them.
Sanji started blabbering about how hot Nami was, even though she was being heartless. Zoro started yelling at him about it being the wrong to to be flirting. Zoro asked about where Usopp was and she told him he was dead so he tried to charge at her but was stopped by Sanji and started a fight with him.
"Don't you guys get it. I only got close to you so I could take all you money but now you're broke I don't need you anymore so go all ready!" Nami said trying to get them to leave.
After a few minutes Luffy fell down onto his back startling everybody.
"Luffy what's wrong?" Dachi ran over to him.
"Tired." He said simply.
"Right now, in the middle of the road?" Yosaku yelled.
"Well I'm pretty tired and I'm not gonna but into their affairs, I'm not interested, but I'm not leaving either." He said before falling asleep.
"Fine, you idiot! Die!" Nami yelled before taking off.
...
The crew, plus Kimiko and her brother were current on their way to fight Arlong for Nami's sake. Dachi told her about Nami's sister and why she was with Arlong, since she was asleep for the back story and Usopp's return. Kimiko was beginning to wonder why her and her brother were doing this, they weren't part of the crew, so why? They had found Luffy comforting an upset Nami and then they were on their way to make Arlong pay. Her head was starting to her hurt from thinking so much. They all watched as Luffy punched down their gate.
"Now which one of you is Arlong?" Luffy asked.
"That would just so happen to be me, and you are?" Arlong asked with a smirk.
"Yeah what do you want with my precious Arlong?" A cat fish said.
"Now, now, Suray." Arlong calmed the beautiful (ugly) beast.
"You can just call me Luffy." he answered walking towards him.
Kimiko watched as he knocked out two fish men and then punched Arlong, sending him and his clingy girlfriend into the wall. Fish men jumped for Luffy but were taken down by Sanji.
"You just had to go head on your own." Sanji said.
"Don't worry I can handle things." Luffy assured.
"We aren't worried we just don't want you to have all the fun." Kimiko said.
"I don't mind if you guys have all the fun." Usopp said fearfully.
"I see you ready for battle as always." Zoro said.
"It's him the guy who tricked me! Hey where's you're kitty?" Hotchan asked.
"We didn't trick you we just used you're denseness and I'm not his 'kitty'." Kimiko said the last part irritated.
"You're human!" Hotchan yelled.
"The simple power of a devil fruit." She said shrugged.
"I guess Nami really was a traitor after all, look long nose is alive." a gray fish man in a darkly colored gi said.
"I get it now you were all after Nami the whole time weren't you? Well too bad Nami is mine and I don't plan on giving her away.
"You can't lay claim on a human being!" Dachi yelled.
"A bunch of idiots like you aren't worth Arlong's time!" Hotchan laughed "We know how to deal with you!" He made a trumpet noise with his mouth and the ground started to shake.
Suddenly a sea monster that resembled a cow emerged from the water.
"Aw! You're so adorable!" Dachi ran forwards towards it and held out his hand.
The cow looking monster stared at him and then nuzzled his hand. He rubbed his snout until Arlong taunted him into attacking. The monster let out a roar and was about to attack as Luffy stuck his feet in the ground and twisted himself. The monster dove for Dachi but he just held his hand out. Once they came in contact Momoo calmed, but Luffy didn't care he grabbed it's horns and swung it around. Dachi tried to get out of the way but his arm got hooked in it's nose ring and he was thrown out to sea wit the cow fish.
"You idiot You just threw my brother out there! I swear on everything under the fucking sun, if he's hurt I will kill you!" Kimiko yelled at him.
It wasn't too far off the coast, but it was far enough it would take him a while to swim back.
"How dare you hurt our brother!" Hotchan yelled.
"Now we must join the fight." the gray fish, now identified as Kuroobi, said cracking his knuckles.
"We will show you the extent of your inferiority to our species." the big lipped blonde fish man said calmly.
"We will avenge our brothers, the ones that were slayed earlier." Suray said removing herself from Arlong.
"I think I want fish for dinner Sanji." Kimiko grinned pulling her swords.
"That sounds like a plan." Sanji said calmly.
"Um...guys there's something I should-" He was cut off.
"Oh shit!" Kimiko yelled as she dodged the ink Hotchan spewed at them.
"Luffy why didn't you move?" Zoro yelled.
"I'm stuck." he said simply.
"Now to finish you off!" Hotchan grabbed a piece of the broken building and tried to smash Luffy with it but Sanji saved him by kicking it apart.
"It terrifies me to know he can do a perfect split standing straight up and keep his balance." Kimiko said honestly making Zoro laugh.
"Looks like I pick one helluva idiot to be my captain." Sanji said.
"We all did." Zoro added.
"Luffy's great!" Usopp chirped.
"But the truth is our idiot captain is way better than a gang who'd prey on a lady." Sanji continued.
"A lady? You rushed into certain death for some lousy girl? That's so pathetic. Is the stupid cat not pretty enough? " Kuroobi taunted.
"No, in fact she quiet the opposite, both of these women are very beautiful and intelligent." Zoro noted the blush on Kimiko's face from the comments. "If you insult them again I promise I will turn you into fish sticks." Sanji threatened.
"Your skills are well for a human, but chivalry from a pirate seems a bit fake." Kuroobi said.
"There's nothing fake about my desire to help a beautiful lady in need." Sanji stated.
"I'll show you the true superiority of the fish men species." Kuroobi got ready to attack.
"You guys sure are full of yourselves." Kimiko scoffed.
"No we only express the truth you mangy animal!" The Suray said.
"Mangy? I am not mangy, you disgusting blow fish!" Kimiko yelled.
"I'm a cat fish!" She exclaimed.
"Really? I couldn't tell it looked as if you were trying to blow Arlong earlier." Kimiko smirked earning a few laughs from her friends.
"Why you!" Suray ran for her drawing her guns.
Kimiko jumped out of the way of the bullets and tried to slash at her. She didn't make contact because this fish seemed to have an endless supply of bullet. Kimiko found and opening but the chances of her getting shot was sky high. Yolo. She raced towards Suray and used her swords to block the bullets but one impaled her hip she didn't stop to acknowledge the pain she took her chance and cut the fish lady across her chest. Suray was down long enough to she Luffy get thrown into the water.
"Got damn it!" Kimiko shifted and ran to jump in the water.
But Suray grabbed her tails and yanked. Kimiko let out a pained roar, before turning to face the monstrous fish. Kimiko leaped at her avoiding bullets as best she could. She tackled the fish lady and the rolled around on the ground smacking and scratching. A cat fight, pun intended. Kimiko caught a glimpse of Zoro falling over. She knew he wasn't recovered enough for this, neither was she but she healed faster. She whimpered slightly as Sanji was punched through a wall. Kimiko hated seeing her friends get hurt.
"Hey stop worrying about your boyfriends and fight me!" Suray yelled punching her.
The hit dazed Kimiko to the point she couldn't stand. She toppled over into a heap of cat. She heard them talking about throwing them into the sea and how we were weaklings. It was starting to piss her off, they talked so high about themselves but they needed to beat down on humans to feel that ways. She opened her eyes to see Zoro standing, if he could do so could she. She stood up, as she shifted. She winced as she felt that her wounds reopened, but she fought not to show it.
"You two are amazing!" Johnny and Yosaku yelled simultaneously.
Kimiko took a couple unstable steps towards Suray and then much to everybody's surprise she started laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" Suray asked.
"You hit like a bitch with a broken arm!" She said between giggles.
That seemed to piss her off to no end because she ran straight for her and tackled her into the water. She didn't even struggle to get away, she couldn't, she couldn't shift, her body wouldn't let her if she was in water already. Suray took notice and smirked.
"Oh yeah, You can't swim." Suray let go of Kimiko to let her sink and drown before going up to the surface.
Well, this sucks... Kimiko watched as Sanji jumped in. He looked between her and Luffy and decided to go for her.
Why me?Kimiko saw Kuroobi jump in behind him, and he was swimming a lot faster than Sanji was. Kimiko struggled to point at Kuroobi, but Sanji didn't turn fast enough. Kuroobi elbowed him in the back of his neck. She watched helplessly as he swam quickly for the old man from the village who was trying to save Luffy, he was almost there but Sanji yanked on his extremely long pony tail. She was to get lightheaded from the lack of air but she willed all her being to hold it. Kimiko saw Kuroobi drag Sanji deeper below at ferocious speed, He was using pressure change to kill Sanji. Suddenly Kuroobi screamed in pain as Sanji did something to his gills, from what it looked like, he was blowing air into them. Kimiko's vision was failing her and turning black, she was going to drown on the sea floor. After what felt like hours she felt herself being pulled upwards.
As soon as she was surfaced she started a coughing fit. She felt someone pat her back and then they spoke.
"This is not the time for swim lessons Kim." they said jokingly.
"Really? I couldn't have thought of a better time." Kimiko scowled at her brother.
"Kimiko! Look!" Dachi Pointed towards Zoro.
He was being pushed back as he tried to avoid being stabbed by Arlong's nose. Also Suray was standing up ready to attack. Kimiko looked back and forth seeing which one was easier, and saw it was Suray so she was going for Arlong.
"Dachi, you go fight catfish over there I'll take Arlong." Kimiko stood, wobbling a bit.
"But-" Dachi started.
"Go!" Kimiko yelled as she took off towards Arlong.
As she charged she jumped and shifted as Arlong tried to stab Zoro. Kimiko let out a pained yelp as she took the stab instead but took her place in front of Zoro protectively.
"What the hell are you doing? Are you trying to get yourself killed Kitten?" Zoro yelled looking at the wound.
Well it sure as hell seems that way.All her wounds were reopened, she was bleeding a lot, she almost drowned... Yep, she was trying to get herself killed and she wasn't even part of the crew. Kimiko was barely standing she couldn't even doge the kick Arlong sent her way. She fell to the ground in pain as she her some ribs crack disgustingly. She struggled to breath, and watched as Arlong tore Zoro bandages off. He gaped at the sight of the wound and wondered aloud how Zoro was alive. Suddenly a gunshot and scream pierced through the air. Kimiko looked over to see Dachi being held by his throat and him bleeding from his stomach.
"What wrong, Kitty cat?" Kimiko struggled to stand. "Oh is this your brother?" She watched Suray point her gun towards his head. "I'll be my life that he's the only thing you have." Kimiko started towards them. "Too bad, now you have nothing."
A single bullet.
A single life.
Everything was quiet. Kimiko could hear nothing but her own heart beating, something her brother couldn't enjoy of anymore. She watched as he fell limp to the ground. Suray started laughing, which brought Kimiko from her thoughts. Everything but Suray turned to nothing in Kimiko's eyes. Kimiko grew in size, eyes became wild, she wanted blood and got damn it she was going to get it.
Kimiko raced towards Suray not caring for anything in her way. She heard and saw Suray fire at her but she didn't feel anything, From the terrified look Suray was giving her the bullet must've hit her but she didn't care. Kimiko tackled the fish and mercilessly began tearing her to shreds with her claws. She was unaware of the fight between Arlong and Luffy, she was only seeing and hearing Suray. After awhile Kimiko became annoyed with her screams she bit Suray's neck and tore out her jugular, knowing that would kill anything. When Kimiko eventually stopped clawing her, Suray was body was torn to shreds, she was covered in blood, her insides were outside.
Kimiko and looked at the crumbling building.
Well... Shit.She ran towards the water and jumped in just as the building started to fall, not here best idea. The quake of the building caused a horribly strong current, one that was to strong for Kimiko to swim against, especially since she was injured and out of energy. Suddenly Kimiko was yanked out of the water and pulled onto dry land. She shifted back into her human form and groaned, she could feel everything, it was like she was hyper aware of pain.
"Come on Kitten, don't you die on us!" Zoro said putting his hand on her bleeding shoulder.
"Stop...call...calling me...Kitten..." She panted out after a minute.
"Yeah that is not happening." Zoro laughed.
Suddenly they her people cheering, meaning Luffy won. Zoro stood and watched as Kimiko tried to stand, after many failed attempts He scooped her up and hooked her swords onto his hips.
"Zoro put me down I can walk." Kimiko said quietly.
"Yeah, that's what it looked like when you were trying to stand just a second ago." Zoro said walking off towards the big crowd of people.
"You're hurt."
"You're hurt worse, Kitten."
"Stop calling me that!
"Nope."
When they arrived at the group the mouse marine was demanding all the money he gave to Arlong. As they walked closer Kimiko spoke up with a smile.
"Have you ever wonder what happens to the mouse when it's caught by the cat?"
He turned around and glared at her and she reached out and grabbed him collar.
"The cat plays with" She punched him, despite the pain it caused her.
"and tortures the mouse" She hit again.
"until she's had her fun," Again and again.
"and then," She pulled him close "She kills him." She smirked at the scared look on his face before shoving him backwards onto his ass.
Kimiko watched as Nami beat him up some more and make him promise to fix the island and clean up after the fish men. She laughed at the sight of her tugging on his whiskers before groaning in pain. Her ribs are still broken, her brother was still dead, but everyone was happy.
"He wouldn't want you to mope around about it. He was a joyful little brat." Zoro said.
"I couldn't save him..." She whispered.
"Yeah you couldn't so live on for him, he'd want you too."
"Hey Kimiko!" Luffy yelled running up to them. "Wanna join our crew? Please!" Luffy begged.
Did she want to? She could just go on her own for the rest of her life. If she did it would be safer... But safer is boring.
"Hell yeah!"
...
Kimiko walked about as a small cat looking for someone of her crew, she didn't want to talk to Usopp he was irritating, Sanji was flirting with the towns women, she did want to disturb Nami and she didn't even want to know where Luffy was so the only person left was Zoro. It took her a while but she eventually found him sitting outside of and house sleeping.
Well there goes that, I don't want to go play with the kids they keep pulling my tails. Instead of leaving she jumped onto the bench next to him. She saw that his mug was only half empty so she stuck her face inside and started lapping at the alcoholic beverage.
"Is it that good, Kitten? You're purring." Someone called from above, making her jump and fall off the bench.
Her head was all the way in the cup so when she jumped the mug came with her, the result; a very flammable Kimiko. After pulling her head out of the mug she glared at him as he shook with laughter. She shifted back to human and smacked him.
"Sorry Kitten." He said still laughing a bit.
"Whatever...And stop calling me Kitten!" She yelled taking a seat next to him.
"You owe me half a beer." she muttered.
"It was mine in the first place!" He argued.
After a while Kimiko became bored and wanted to do something and Zoro wasn't helping. Deciding on what they were going to do Kimiko stood and grabbed Zoro's hand and pulled.
"Wha-" Zoro started.
"We're going to go dance." Kimiko said pulling him toward the crowd.
"I don't dance."
"Now you do."
They we're maneuvering their way through the crowd and Zoro had time to really look at the neko, he had to admit she was very attractive. She wore black boots that came up above her ankle a bit, his eyes traveled slowly up her lightly tanned olive colored legs to see she was in short dark blue shorts that looked like they barely fit, he slowly moved up to her mostly bare back and watched as her tails swished happily. Zoro noticed Dachi's name in black cursive letters on the back of her left hip with three dark blue and three purple ribbon like lines going up diagonally across her back until they disappeared into her black halter. Her hair was in long pony tail that rested atop of her head. He was brought out of his sightseeing when her ran into her as she stopped.
"Sorry Kitten, I was just watching Usopp being an idiot." He lied.
"You're not gonna stop calling me that are you?" She asked.
"Nope."
The two grabbed full mugs and drank happily. Kimiko danced while Zoro stood there awkwardly, soon enough she got irritated with him and grabbed his hands and started to drag him around while laughing. Something was very off about her, but Zoro did know what. After an hour of being dragged around her figured it out. She kept running into things and bumping into people, she couldn't stop laughing, she was acting stupid. Zoro reached out and grasped her waist and pulled into his chest to stop her from hitting a table when she slipped. He groaned in frustration while she just laughed.
"You're drunk aren't you?" Zoro asked looking down at the girl.
"Maybe just a little bit." She held her fore finger and thumb about a inch apart. "I'm a really light drinker."
"You should've said that earlier!" Zoro yelled.
"But if I did you would've let me drink." She pouted.
Suddenly a bird shrill came from behind and Zoro turned to see Usopp tumble down the table tower. Zoro pinched the bridge of his nose and shook his head. He turned back to see Kimiko finishing what looked to be her fifth or sixth beer.
"Please tell five of those were already empty?" When she laughed and shook her head he snatched the current cup out of her hand and set it down. "What the hell? I wasn't even turned around for a minute!" He yelled.
"Well now that you know I can't drink to much I had to get as much as I could before you stopped me and I am very good at swallowing things." She her words slurring together.
Zoro blushed at how his mind comprehended her words but he shook the dirty images away and dragged her back to the bench he was on a while ago and sat down. Kimiko saw what he was doing and quickly snatched her hand away and tried to run but Zoro hooked two fingers through a belt loop on her shorts, affectingly halting her. She struggled against him but her just pulled her into his lap. After about five minutes she gave up and pouted. But that didn't last very long, in less than five minutes she was sleeping cuddled up to his chest.
...
"You sure you understand the plan?" Nami asked once more.
"Nami I swear, I will claw your eyes out yes I get the damn plan now go do what you have to." Kimiko said before shifting and running off.
Kimiko was lying down on shore claiming that she was waiting for Nami. After a while she heard Nami yell 'set sail' and they did so knowing Kimiko would be able to jump onto the boat. Kimiko stood and stretched and the got in her position, crouched down and ready to run.
"Go, Kimiko!" Nami's voice yelled.
She took off with out a second thought. Just as she reached the edge of the island and jumped Nami jumped onto her back. When they landed Nami got off of Kimiko's back and lifted her shirt dropping the islands wallets and purses. Suddenly realization hit them all at once and they all started screaming angrily at her and Kimiko, but the girls only laughed.
They just settled for one helluva cruise.
...
Anybody got an good idea for a cover?
