Chapter 2 - Kain
"AAAAARRRRGGGHHH" we screamed as we fell. there was nothing below us other than ocean.
"Shit we cant swim anymore." I screamed as the wind rushed by our ears as we reached terminal velocity. "Maybe we shouldn't have eaten those fruits until we were safe."
"I can see a boat, HHHHHHEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYY, WE CAN'T SWIM CAN YOU FISH US OUT OF THE WATER."I saw what she meant, a pirate ship sitting in the water. It looked extremely familiar.
"Hey, Sophie is that the Thousand Sunny" I shouted.
"I don't care at the moment, I'm more thinking about our immanent deaths"
"Hey is something coming towards us." A red streak went past us
"GOMU GOMU NO AMI" I heard shouted before we suddenly slowed down. We were suspended in a net made of rubber.
"My god, we were saved by Luffy, Kain can you believe it"
"No, but it seems just as likely as everything that's happened to us today." We slowly touched down on the ship to a crowd of pirates. I turned to the now landed Luffy. "Thank you for saving us, we are both devil's fruit users so we can't swim. Thank you."
"Why were you falling out of the sky, did you fall from a sky island?" asked Nami.
"No, what happened to us is much more extra-ordinary."
By the time we finished our story it was dark. Franky had taken the blue prints to look over, Zoro had fallen asleep after drinking what was left of our Sake and Luffy had got bored and climbed the mast. Otherwise it was a flurry of questions only interrupted by Luffy falling in the ocean and needing to be saved.
"So you gained the powers of the devils fruits, from these two fruits you found in Dr. Vegapunk's lab and you just ate them, even though you knew these powers did not exist in your world?" Asked Nami with a disbelieving look on her face.
"Yes, we read manga's about your world, so we knew what would happen and even if we were wrong all we would have done is have eaten two fruits."
"Yeah and to be perfectly truthful we were kinda drunk" Admitted Sophie, looking at me and smirking.
"So why were you falling, you input 0,0 and just fell?"
"Yeah, we don't know why we were falling all we knew was that it would bring us to your world." I sigh, why is that so hard to believe. "Any other questions."
"Explain more about your world."
"Is there much meat."
"Can I see those manga's."
"Luffy, we have none with us. We only have the one manga, Nami and Robin what do you want to know?"
The questions continued for hours on end until the sun had begun to rise and only Nami and Robin were left awake with us. "I think you ladies have asked enough questions for now, its time for breakfast." Said Sanji as he wandered in followed by Usopp.
"No, no, no, no we are off course." says Nami fearfully, "We should have arrived last night."
"No Nami, I stopped the ship off the shore of the island because I didn't think we should got to the shore until morning" replied Usopp.
"Why didn't you tell me, this is the most dangerous island after Fishman Island, we could have been attacked in the night."
"Umm, is it ok if we stay with you for a while, we have no where to go and no way back to our world." Sophie asked with her best guilty look, usually saved for when in trouble for stealing from the restaurant.
"Yahoo, two new nakama, Sanji make breakfast to celebrate, something with meat." Shouted Luffy as he walked into the room, stomach rumbling.
"Baka, Luffy we don't even know them."
"I Like them, Nami. They're cool."
"Yes, but all we know that's fact is they fell from the sky."
"You do know we are right here, don't you?" I said.
"Yes, but I do have a point, don't I?"
"Yeah but you accepted Robin almost straight away even though she was Miss All Sunday. No offence Robin."
"None taken, you have a point though. While we have no evidence that they are telling the truth, we also have no reason to doubt them." Robin replied with a smile. "Nami, don't be so suspicious."
"Yeah Nami. Now Sanji make me breakfast." Luffy shouted. "Lets welcome our new nakama before we go to the island."
"Well fine but I'm keeping my eye's on you guy's."
"Nami, what island are we on?." Chopper asked. "I looked at it and all I saw was hill's with sheep on it."
"I don't actually know what island we are on. Hody ransacked the library in Ryugu Palace and they were unable to find knowledge about this island."
"So it's a mystery island." Mulled Luffy.
(Cue Anime falling down)
As we walked onto the deck, Zoro dropped down from the mast. "So these guys are still here, when are we dropping them off?."
"Zoro, Luffy and Robin decided that we are keeping them."
"Make us sound like pets why don't you, Nami" Sophie said, rubbing her eyes.
"*Yawn* Yeah Nami, You questioned us all night. I've never felt so tired." I had a sudden realisation. "Wait where is my stuff."
"Franky had it when looking at the plans."
"I got it here, mecha." Said Franky as he walked from the workshop. "What are those can's filled with."
"Good I thought I had some left. Sophie I've got energy drinks." I exclaimed as I grabbed the bag. "I have 10 of them" I throw one to her.
"What's that then, anything like cola."
"How about I give you a can and you see if you can make more. God knows we need them."
"Thank god for you buying more cans." Said Sophie as she swigged the can.
Looking at the island for the first time, it was exactly like Chopper described. Grinning me and Luffy jumped over the side of the ship, landing on the shore. "C'mon lets go guys." Luffy shouted as he began running up the hill. Taking off after him I noticed something strange about the ground.
"Wait everyone, the grass… its not grass, they are spike's. Be careful on your feet." Taking off my shoe's I throw them to Sophie. "I think you need something more substantial than those cloth things you wear."
"Thanks, but don't you need them?"
"Remember I'm a logia now, they can't hurt me anymore." I began walking just to prove my point.
"AAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHH." Looking into the sky I spotted Luffy falling from the sky.
"Zoro heads up." It was too late as Luffy smashed into Zoro, as the dust cleared I saw Luffy & Zoro lying in a crumpled heap.
"The grass is sharp and the sheep have big horns."
"I have an idea everyone stand back." I liquidise my legs and create a thin path of solid steel over the spikes. "C'mon stay close, I don't know how large my range is."
"Why didn't you do this first." said Luffy, rubbing his feet.
"Maybe he didn't do it first because you ran off. Baka" Said Nami, shortly after punching Luffy in the head. "Thank you for the walkway Kain."
Walking up the hill was easy going, having tested my limits at 10 metres around me. Getting closer to the sheep we saw what Luffy meant the sheep were much bigger than first thought, at about 10 foot high with two 5 foot horns, and one with slightly less wool on its back, in two semi-circles.
"Luffy… did you try to eat one. is that why it sent you flying." Luffy looked down at his feet,
"I wanted to know what it tasted like." he mumbled.
"Luffy, The sheep is snickering at you, he says to try it again, he likes sending you flying." Said Chopper, I could see everyone but Luffy and Zoro cracking up.
Luffy gnashed his teeth together and Zoro began drawing Wado Ichimonji, "I hate food that talks back."
That was all it took for the sheep to get the message, bolting away at the fastest speed sheeply possible. "Oi come back, I want to eat you." Luffy took several steps before leaving the steel path, "OWW." Falling back onto the steel, he rubbed his feet.
"Luffy, how about you try to think." said Sophie. "Lets just go find a town."
We reached the top of the hill, within minutes with no other sheep incidents. We easily spotted the nearest town which was a refreshing shade of grey concrete. As we neared I stopped using my power's, best not let my powers be too well known, especially with 2 of the supernova's.
As we reached the town we saw something we were not expecting. "Umm guys, isn't that the flag of Big Mom. You know the woman you are at war with."
The flag dominated the largest building in the town. It had 3 towers billowing smoke, and an oddly roman feel to the whole thing as it was supported by columns.
A loud noise came from the bar nearest to us, as a man was thrown out, crashing into the building opposite it, the mans assailant walked out of the destroyed door. Picking up the man he said. "How about you apologise to the barmaid." Luffy's face dropped, his fist clenching. Robin swallowed.
"I can't believe it" Robin gasped.
"Akoiji!" Luffy murmured.
