Chapter 2: The Day Gets Weirder
Nami and Vivi sat on the ground thinking… what could have caused this change in Nami… after it all it wasn't every day that someone changed from being a red head to blonde…
"Maybe it's connected to the island's treasure..." said Nami, "When the monster attacked… he mentioned the treasure…"
"Maybe… should we go back to the shrine?" asked Vivi.
Nami nodded in agreement and the two head back to the shrine, the two cats were nearby, watched the two then they nodded to each other and separated.
Meanwhile with Usopp and Chopper they hid in an alleyway.
"Why are we hiding?" said Chopper.
"Because… I don't want one finding out I'm a girl…" said Usopp-Chan, "It's extremely embarrassing… the other will laugh at me…"
"Oh… that makes sense…" said Chopper.
That's when a certain blonde girl who was a guy earlier walked past the alley they were in… and they noticed the similar outfit
"Hey she's wearing the same outfit you are…" said Chopper.
That's when they got a good look at her… the scar, the hat... and her scent.
"Is that Luffy!" yelled both.
Luffy-Chan who was indeed the girl turned around and saw Chopper and Usopp-Chan.
"Chopper?" said Luffy-Chan, "Who's the girl…"
"I'm Usopp…" sighed Usopp-Chan.
"Oh… you turned into a girl…" said Luffy-Chan.
"You're a girl too…" said Usopp-Chan.
"Oh right…" said Luffy-Chan, "How did this happen?"
"Did a monster attack you too?" said Usopp-Chan.
Luffy-Chan nodded…
"So maybe you two turning into girls have to do with that." said Chopper.
"Probably…" said Luffy-Chan.
Meanwhile with Zoro-Chan she was hiding the alleys… wondering what to do… sure she was embarrassed, but there wasn't any difference between a man and woman… no he was embarrassed because he knew the other would make fun of him... er… her… whatever…
Not too far away, Sanji-Chan was also hiding alleys… hoping not be seen. Right now he was extremely embarrassed and confused… why was he.. er she a girl… that's the main thing… and the other was to make sure that the others didn't find out… they would make fun of him… and her chances with Nami went down to 0… there's now she could ever score a date with Nami… and the rest would never live it down… especially Zoro… he would never, ever live it down.
Little did they know there were in the same alley… and they bumped into each other from behind, both turned around... first thing they noticed wads the similar outfits… then their eyes drifted to their well… features passed, Zoro-Chan noticed the curly brow and covered eyes and Sanji-Chan recognized the swords.
"Sword boy?" said Sanji-Chan surprised.
"Dart board?" said Zoro-Chan surprised.
Both nodded… then breathed a sigh of relief, knowing there was no way that could make fun of each other…
"So it happened to you too…" said Sanji-Chan.
"Yeah…" said Zoro-Chan, "Attack by a monster?"
"Were you?" said Sanji-Chan.
"Yeah…" said Zoro-Chan.
"So what are we going to do?" asked Sanji-Chan.
"I have no idea…" said Zoro-Chan.
Meanwhile at the Shrine, Makie was still sweeping while singing.
"Spider-pig, spider-pig, does whatever a spider-pig does. Can he swing from a web? No he can't, he's a pig. Look out, he's a spider-pig. …" she sang.
That's when she saw Vivi and some blonde girl she never seen before…
"Hey your back…" said Makie, "Are you here to help your friend, to if you can pass though too… with a strangely dress friend… because if you are then it's on the house…"
"Not exactly…" said Nami, "It's long story…"
Not too long later they were in a room of the Shrine House, while Makie look though documents... and her grandfather talked to Nami and Vivi.
"So you believe this transformation has something to do with the Treasure…" said Makie's Grandfather.
"Yeah…" said Nami, "The monster that attack me said that I was the only that went though the barrier."
"Interesting." Said Makie's grandfather.
"Gramps… can you please help me…" said Makie.
"Sorry Makie but my back…" said Makie's grandfather.
"That didn't stop you from playing Jiggly Ball with the guys…" she muttered.
After a few minutes Makie's found what she was looking for a very old book, "This is the oldest book in the shrine… it dates back to when the Shrine was first founded…" said Makie.
After blowing away some dust she began to look though… "It says here that the Treasure is a Legendary Crystal called the Ginzuishou or Silver Crystal… it's says here that it was protected by a Princess, who in turn was protected by a group of warriors. These warriors were called the Sailor Senshi..."
"Sailor Senshi…" said Nami who somehow felt that this term was familiar to her.
"Yes…" said Makie who began to look further into the book, "It says here the Sailor Senshi had normal guises then would transform into their Senshi guises by saying a certain phrase in conjunction to a certain object… the way to change back from this guise is to…"
"They have to…" said Nami.
"They have just focus on changing back…" said Makie.
This caused everyone to anime fall in the room.
"That it?" said Nami with a sweat drop.
"That's it…" said Makie.
Nami focused on changing back… and she did…
"That was weird…" said Nami.
"So what are you going to do?" asked Makie.
"I have no idea…" said Nami, "This is all too weird."
Meanwhile in a random alleyway, Luffy-Chan, Usopp-Chan and Chopper talked.
"Do you think anyone would believe us?" asked Usopp-Chan, "I mean it's pretty unbelievable that we turned into girls."
"Yeah…" said Luffy-Chan.
"So you're saying that you were boys?" said a voice.
"Who said that?" said Chopper.
"I did…" said the voice, they turned to see Luna.
"A talking cat!" yelled Usopp-Chan.
"Cool!" said Luffy.
"Now I know what happened to you…" said Luna.
"Really what?" said Luffy-Chan.
"I'll explain later." said Luna.
"Wait how do we change back?" asked Usopp-Chan.
"Just focus on changing back." said Luna.
Both did that, and they did indeed change back.
"Now Follow me!" said Luna.
"It is such a weird day…" said Usopp.
"Your telling me…" said Chopper.
Elsewhere in another alley…
"So what are we going to do?" asked Zoro-Chan.
"If Usopp laughs beat him up…" said Sanji-Chan, "What about Nami though."
"Who cares about her…" said Zoro-Chan.
"I do…" said Sanji-Chan.
The two glared at each other, knowing that a fight was imamate.
"Hey calm down you two!" said a voice.
Both looked down from where the voice came from and saw Artemis, "You know each other… right…"
"What the!" yelled Sanji-Chan.
"The cat just talked!" yelled Zoro-Chan.
"Yes… I can…" said Artemis, "And I'll explain everything just follow me…"
"Wait… is there anyway to change back?" asked Sanji-Chan.
"Yes just focus on changing back…" said Artemis.
Both did so and managed to change back… and were surprised.
"Now follow me…" said Artemis.
Both followed the cat.
Meanwhile in who knows where the mysterious man, Doug and Karen looked at their monsters.
"Honestly how do you not kill them or capture them…" said Doug, "And I didn't order one of you to drain energy… I mean… I don't think we're even going after people's energy."
"Sorry…" said all 5 monsters.
"Don't worry I have plan…" said Karen, "I'm positive Sailor Venus is going to go look for the Silver Crystal… we have wait get when she comes back…"
"I'll go!" said the monkey monster, "I will get the Silver Crystal"
"Be careful… I have the oddest feeling like the Sailor Senshi already know each other and are good friends…" said them mysterious man.
"What are the chances of that happening?" said Karen, "I mean the world is big…"
"Still be careful…" said them mysterious man.
Back in the town the two groups following the cats met up… all 4 members of the Straw Hats looked at each other blinking.
"Don't tell me…" said Usopp.
"It also happened to you…" sighed Zoro.
Meanwhile at the Shrine… everyone gathered at the cave.
"So are you going to go in?" asked Makie.
"I still don't know…" said Nami with a sigh.
"I'll give you share of the shrine's profits next time you come for a visit…" said Makie's grandfather.
"Okay!" said Nami.
"Gramps…" sighed Makie.
"I knew she would fall for that." said Vivi.
Makie's grandfather gave her a lantern…
"You know if you don't pay if she ever does come back I will make you pay in more ways than one…" said Makie glaring at her grandfather.
"Yes, yes Makie…" said her Grandfather with fear.
Elsewhere in town, the 5 male Straw Hats talked to the two talking cats.
"So what you just us we're mystical warriors called the Sailor Senshi who has to use a magical crystal to fight an evil that's trying to destroy the world as we know it?" said Luffy.
"Yes…" said Luna.
"You know how unbelievable that sounds… right?" said Zoro.
"I hate to break it you but you were attacked my monsters, transformed into girls, transformed back and are now talking to two talking cats…" said Luna.
Zoro tried to come up with a response but couldn't…
"There's one more thing…" said Artemis.
"What?" asked Luffy.
"There's another member of the Sailor Senshi on this island… we have met her… but we have talked to her yet." said Luna.
"So didn't freak her out…" said Zoro.
"You said… as in she a girl…" said Sanji.
Luna nodded, "Yes… another girl she's with found out as well…" said Luna.
"Hey maybe we can get her to join the crew!" said Luffy, "What does she look like…"
"Well she has ornate hair, brown eyes, a tattoo on her shoulder and she's apparently very greedy…" said Artemis.
All the Straw Hats anime fell…
"No way…" said Usopp.
"You know her…" said Luna blinking.
"That's Nami… she's already part of the crew!" said Luffy with a big grin.
"That's such a weird coincidence…" said Luna.
"I know…" said Artemis.
"So you know where she is?" said Luffy.
"We're sure they're at the shrine." said Luna.
"Shrine?" said Luffy.
"Oh yeah, Nami and Vivi went to the Shrine to see about the Legendary Treasure." said Chopper.
"Oh yeah…" said Sanji.
"We should head there…" said Luffy, "And talk to her about it."
Luffy ran off in the wrong direction prompting the tow cats to sweat drop.
"He like that all the time?" asked Luna.
"Sadly yes…" said Sanji.
Inside the cave, Nami came across a pedestal… and on top was a crystal that was glowing.
"Why does it feel like I've seen this before..." thought Nami as she grabbed it.
On the outside the barrier became visible to the naked eyes… then shattered.
"Look at that the barrier's no long there…" said Makie's Grandfather who took out two fans and began to dance, "Yeah, yeah! Now I can turn this into a tourist trap!"
Makie walk up to her grandfather and whacked him in the back of the head.
"Gramps…" she said.
That's when the monkey Monster ran past them…
"What was that?" said Vivi.
"Giant monkey…" said Makie's grandfather.
Inside the cave, Nami was walking back when she saw giant barrel aiming towards her she managed to jumped out of the way.
"What was that?" said Nami.
"That was me!" yelled the Monkey Monster.
"A giant monkey?" said Nami.
"That's right! Now give me the Silver Crystal!" yelled the monkey.
"No…" said Nami.
"Fine then…" said the monkey monster who summoned many barrels and began to throw them at Nami who tried her best to dodge them.
"What am I going to do?" thought Nami then she remembered, about transforming, "I should transform but what am I supposed to do…"
She felt something in her pocket that wasn't there before… it was the wand appeared her.
"What am I supposed to say again…" said Nami then she remember from she first transformed, "Venus Crystal Power! Make-up!"
She transformed into her Sailor Senshi form.
"Oh man… I have no idea, what do…" said Nami as she ran away from the monster.
She ran past the monster and towards the exit, she ran past Vivi, Makie and Makie's grandfather.
"Nami's what's wrong?" said Vivi.
"Just run!" said Nami.
They saw the monkey monster and followed Nami as well.
Meanwhile the stairs leading up the shrine… the 5 male Straw Hats and the cats were talking.
"So are you sure Nami already knows?" asked Luffy.
'We saw her transform already so yes…" said Luna.
"This day is messed up." said Zoro.
"I have the feeling that it's going to be worse by night fall." said Sanji.
Just then they heard crashed coming from the shrine, they looked up towards the shine.
"What was that?" said Usopp.
"I have a feeling that a monster is attacking!" said Luna.
"You should transform right now." said Artemis.
"how do we do that again…" said Zoro.
"I'm sure that your transform items are in your pockets." said Luna.
All of them checked them, as the wands and brooch.
"Wait… why does everyone else has wands?" asked Luffy.
"Now not the time…" sighed Luna.
"Now remember what you said the first time you transformed and say it again." said Artemis.
All of them remember what they said.
"Mercury Crystal Power!"
"Mars Crystal Power!"
"Jupiter Crystal Power!"
"Moon Crisis!"
"Make-up!"
All of them transformed…
"This is going to take some getting use too…" sighed Zoro-Chan.
"No listen!" said Luna, "Zoro, in this guise you are Sailor Mars, the senshi of fire, Sanji you are Sailor Jupiter, the senshi of lighting and wood, Usopp in this guise you are Sailor Mercury, the senshi of Ice and Water and Luffy in this guise you are the Sailor Moon, the leader of the Sailor Senshi."
"Do we get really cool attacks that come with these outfits?" asked Luffy-Chan or Sailor Moon in this case.
"Yes you do…" said Luna with small giggle.
"Well we should see what the problem is first…" said Zoro-Chan or Sailor Mars.
They ran up the stairs to find the monkey monster chasing Nami, Vivi, Makie and Makie's Grandfather… throwing barrels.
"What the…" said Sanji-Chan or Sailor Jupiter.
"It's a giant monkey that's throwing barrels." said Usopp-Chan or Sailor Mercury.
"Hey that's the monster that attacked me!" said Sailor Moon.
"Really…" said Sailor Mars with a sweat drop.
"Hey is that Nami?" said Sailor Jupiter with heart eyes pointing to Nami.
"That's her… in that guise she's called Sailor Venus…" said Artemis, "I don't know why you turned out be guys… but I'm just lucky one of you was reborn as a girl…"
"What do you mean reborn?" asked Sailor Mars.
"We'll explain later… just help them…" said Luna, "Don't worry your senshi powers will come to you…"
All 4 of them nodded… "I should help Vivi…" said Chopper.
The monkey monster continued to chase them… that's when Sailor Jupiter jumped kicked the monster the face.
"What the hell…" yelled the monster.
"Hey… a monster should chaise around pretty girls around…" said Sailor Jupiter.
Both Nami and Vivi blinked.
"Sanji…" said Vivi with a sweat drop.
"I really don't want to know…" said Nami with a sweat drop.
"I don't either… but we have to take of the monster…" said Sailor Mars.
"Zoro?" said Nami and Vivi.
"You think that's bad…" said Sailor Mars jabbing her thumb at Sailor Moon and Sailor Mercury.
"Is that…" said Nami.
"Luffy and Usopp…" sighed Sailor Jupiter.
"Oh man…" said Nami nursing a headache.
"Maybe we should go hide…" said Makie.
"Like I should listen to you Makie…" said Makie's grandfather.
"Oh really then about you back and possible Jiggly Ball injuries… you want to get even more by watching from the crossfire." said Makie.
"I hate it when you're right…" grumbled Makie's grandfather.
We're going to hide in the gift shop…" said Vivi.
"Wait for me!" cried Chopper.
All 4 of them ran towards the gift shop.
"Your name is Nami right?" said Artemis walking over to Nami.
"You can talk?" said Nami surprised.
"Yes…" said Artemis, "Now Nami in this guise you are Sailor Venus, the Senshi of Love…"
Nami or Sailor Venus sweatdroped… she sweatdroped even more when Sailor Jupiter began to do the noodle dance she heard the title.
"I really don't want to know…" sighed Artemis.
"All right! Let's fight this thing!" yelled Sailor Moon.
"Like you beat me!" yelled the Monkey Monster, "I'm prepared this time!"
That's when the monkey Monster summoned more barrels and threw them at the Sailor Senshi all of them nagged to dodge.
"I have no idea what that's thing problem is but I don't like it…" said Sailor Jupiter.
Suddenly an attack came to her… an antae came from her tiara…
"Supreme Thunder!" she called out.
Lighting came from the antennae and hit the monster.
"Awesome!" yelled Sailor Moon.
"I think I can top that…" said Sailor Mars.
"Show me Sword Girl…" said Sailor Jupiter smirking.
That's when the attack somehow came to Sailor Mars.
"Fire Soul!" she called out.
She put her hands together and shot a fireball and hit the monkey monster.
"Whoa!" yelled Sailor Mars.
The two looked at each other…
"You should go…" said Artemis.
"Me?" said Sailor Venus.
Artemis nodded and somehow the Attack came to her.
"Crescent Beam!" she called out
She pointed at the monkey monster and shot a crescent shaped beam that two hit the monster.
"That was wonderful Nami!" said Sailor Jupiter doing the noodle dance.
Sailor Venus' only sweatdroped.
"All right now it's time for the great captain Usopp!" yelled Sailor Mercury.
That's when her attack came to her.
"Shabon Spray!"
Sailor Mercury shot out bubble which created a heavy fog causing everyone to sweat drop.
"What was that point of that!" yelled Sailor Mercury, "I could just used a smoke Star!"
"Poor Usopp…" sighed Sailor Moon.
"Before he… she attack… Nami you have the Silver Crystal right…" said Artemis.
Sailor Venus only nodded, "Should I give to him?"
"Yes…" said Artemis.
Sailor Venus walked up to the captain of the crew and gave him the Crystal.
"What am I supposed to with this?" asked Sailor Moon.
"Put in your brooch…" said Luna.
"Okay…" said Sailor Moon who took out her brooch, opened it up and found the was a place to put the Crystal when she did so there was a light and a pink wand with a red heart on top, "This is pretty cool."
That's when attack came to her, for some reason she spun around and did a cool pose while saying "Rainbow Moon Heartache!"
A giant heart destroyed the monkey monster, turning it into dust. At the same time other Sailor Senshi laughed.
"What's so funny?" asked Sailor Moon.
"It's just so girly… I'm just glad I don't' have that attack!" laughed Sailor Mercury.
"So you rather be useless than girly?" asked Sailor Jupiter.
Sailor Mercury could only sweat drop, afterwards all of them detransformed.
"We need to talk…" said Luna.
"What about?" asked Luffy.
Nami whacked him in the head, "Oh I don't know… maybe about the whole Sailor Senshi thing!" she yelled.
Not too long later in the Shrine House.
"What do you mean reincarnation!" yelled Zoro.
"That's the truth…" said Luna.
"That's so cool we were friends in our past lives don't you think?" said Luffy who was eating some Frogurt.
"I know it's a lot to take in today but it's true…" Artemis, "And whoever wants to get their hands on the Crystal will stop at nothing… we've seen it before many times."
"So were we destined to meet or something because this is really weird…" said Sanji.
"I can't believe this happening…" said Usopp.
"Maybe we should go to the ship and rest…" sighed Nami, "It's been a tough day."
The other members of the crew nodded in agreement… they headed back to the ship with the cat's in tow.
That night on the Going Merry or Merry Go… whatever the ship's name is…
Luffy sat on his seat just watching the moon...
"You're awake…" said voice.
Luffy turned around and saw Luna.
"I can't sleep…" said Luffy.
"Is that so." said Luna jumping to join them.
The two sat in silence…
"It was really weird day…" admitted Luffy, "But it's sort of nice to know that I've always been with them…"
"You're a lot like her…" said Luna.
"Who?" asked Luffy.
"Usagi…" said Luna, "She was the type of person to cheer everyone up no matter what…"
"Really… that's funny…" said Luffy.
"So how are you handling it?" asked Luna.
"You mean all the stuff I found out today…" said Luffy.
"Yes…" said Luna.
"I don't know… It's a lot to take in… but I'm happy about… but for some reason… I feel like there's something missing…"
Luna looked sadly at Luffy… she knew wasn't the best time to bring up an important detail… after all who knows what the future would hold.
Next Time: It's been a week since they found, and they have gotten used to things... but worse is that the mysterious enemy has found about Luffy's bounty! What will happen? Find out next time!
