"Come on up you two!" Nami called down to us as she tossed down the ladder.

"Can you climb it?" I heard Zoro ask. I nodded yes and approached the ladder. I grabbed a rung of the ladder not to far above me, with one hand and the rung above that with my other hand. I then stepped onto the ladder and started to climb. After I was a little ways up, I felt Zoro begin climbing as well. When I was in elementary school I was always able to climb to the top of the cargo net, so I knew I should be able to make it up the ladder. So far I was doing fine. The ladder swayed a bit more with Zoro climbing as well, but I could handle it. When I reached the top of the ladder, I grabbed the top of the railing and pulled myself onto the ship. I was slightly tired from the climb, but I felt like I had plenty of energy. Well, it was really late and I tend to get hyper when I'm tired. That added to the adrenaline I was feeling from the weird experience prevented me from feeling too tired. Nami led me to an area with chairs and a table. We sat across from each other. I didn't realize exactly how cold I was until I felt warmth return to my body. I probably didn't notice because of how tired I was and the situation I was in.

"Where is this?" Nami asked. I guess she didn't know how or why she was here either.

"America," I replied, my voice was probably shaking or something, but I couldn't tell. If she heard that my voice was off she didn't say anything, though seeing as I was led here by sword-point she probably thought it was logical fear.

"America," she repeated. "Is that on the Grand Line?"

"No. Um, I think this is a different world than where the Grand Line exists." I replied feeling kind of awkward. Nami looked shocked at first, but she quickly regained her composure. She was used to impossible things happening.

"Why do you say that?" Nami asked calmly.

"Well, here there are stories about your world. Well, actually about your crew. You guys aren't real here." I tried to explain.

"So you're saying there are myths and rumors about us?" Nami reasoned.

"Not exactly. There are books and cartoons showing your adventures. You guys are supposed to be something someone made-up. You know, a work of fiction." I tried to explain the manga and anime about their world.

"Explain." Nami stated. So I told her about the volumes of manga and episodes of anime. I also told her about their fans.

"This must be pretty surprising for you." Nami said. I nodded.

"Can you tell me more about this world?" Nami asked. I then proceeded to tell her about my life, the planet, my government, the currency I use, and anything else I could think of. It took awhile, but not as long as I expected.

"Ok. Wait here." Nami said as she rose from her chair. She left the area and I could hear her calling for everyone. Soon people began sitting down at the table. Robin brought her book in with her and looked at me with curiosity before taking a seat and resuming her reading. Sanji came in next and started flirting with me. He then noticed Robin and began fawning over her. I was sitting there staring at the table, probably blushing. I wasn't used to people acting like that around me and all the compliments made me feel kind of awkward, but still kind of happy. Usopp, Chopper, Franky, and Luffy came in together, Luffy just nodded his head before sitting down and Usopp, Chopper, and Franky looked at me with curiosity before taking their seats. Nami followed Brook in. Brook managed to get out the words, "May I see" before Nami punched him and stated that he should learn some manners. Nami sat in a chair beside me, while Brook took a seat as well. Zoro came after Nami, yawning a little before sitting down. Nami then began to explain to everyone the situation they were in. As the story continued at least once everyone peeked over at me. I was feeling kind of embarrassed. I was probably blushing again, though I don't think people can usually see it when I'm blushing. I really wasn't used to getting this much attention from this many people and I was really nervous. If I would have looked at anything other than the table, I probably would have seen numerous eye sparkles. I could almost hear them as it was. Then Nami asked me what my name was. I glanced up at her before returning my gaze to the table. I hadn't even realized she hadn't known my name.

"Jessica." I replied. Sanji proceeded to say how lovely a name Jessica was. Nami then dismissed everyone except Sanji. Now it was me, Sanji, and Nami sitting around the table. We then started planning about what we were going to do. It was a relief that Sanji was seriously helping us plan and not just trying to flirt with us. I told them about how it was going to be bad if I was missing and about my friends who were also fans of One Piece. We decided that tomorrow I was going to call my friends and have them come over. That was going to be tough, I didn't know if they were free and I would have to convince my mom to let them, or at least one of them come over. Also, were they really going to believe me if I told them the Strawhat crew was at my house or would I be able to convince them to come over if I didn't tell them the truth? After we figured all we could out, Sanji volunteered to walk me back to my yard. I accepted his offer because I didn't really want to be walking through the woods at night, alone. We walked in silence so we wouldn't draw attention to ourselves. Once we reached my yard he silently waved goodbye and we parted ways. I made it into my house and into bed without any trouble. I was really worried. How can I possibly keep this from my parents and still convince them to allow me to spontaneously ask friends over? It took a while for me to fall asleep, but that was usually was the case. Despite all my worries though, I was excited for tomorrow.
