Hakurane


The small island was later identified by Nami as Hakurane a deserted island rich in plants and animals; basically it was perfect for finding food and supplies before they continued their journey.

The crew set foot on shore shortly after Usopp and Franky got the mini Merry ready. Everybody had plans as to what they were going to do on the island except for Robin who was still trying to come up with a way to approach Zoro.

She turned to see where Zoro was and saw him and Luffy talking, Zoro looked like usual, serious and a little bored, while Luffy was as energetic as always jumping around while talking about what adventures this island had in store for us.

"Robin!" she sudenly heard someone call for her.

Once she turned around she saw Nami waving from the other side of the beach.

"What is it navigator-san?" Replied Robin from where she was, she didn't want to loose track of Zoro because she knew that he would most likely get lost and then it would be a problem to find him.

"Come on over here I need your help!" there was a slightly irritated tone to her voice, but she was still awaiting her with a calm look, Robin figured that it was best not to upset her.

With her mind still wandering off she decided it was best if she planned her next move while she was helping Nami.


"Zoro! Where are you?" Luffy was looking for his friend, they had decided to go explore the island but as soon as they entered the woods Zoro vanished "Gee I can't believe he got lost again... And we're not even in that deep..."

"Well I guess I should go ahead we'll eventually meet." and with that he decided to continue.

After a while walking he decided it was best to go to a high place, if he wanted to find Zoro it was best to go to somewhere high, since it was a small island he might have view of the entire forest.

Once he arrived at the top he started scanning the surroundings for his friend, and after a few minutes he saw something that looked like Zoro and didn't think twice.

"Gomu gomu no..."


"Tch where did Luffy head to... I can't believe he got lost!" Zoro was looking everywhere for his friend.

After a few minutes walking he found himself at the beginning, he was standing on the beach looking at the Thousand Sunny, after he recovered from the shock and admitted to himself that he was infact the one that was lost he started to head off back into the jungle. I can't believe I got lost, I should find him and pretend that nothing happened! With that in mind he continued his search.


Robin was still taking care of the task Nami gave her, she was carrying a box full of herbs, they had some kind of medical properties so Chopper could use them. She normally wouldn't mind doing this kind of task, but she really needed to talk to Zoro alone, and this was a great chance.

"Ah... They already left the beach so he must be lost already..." she sighed, it would be nearly impossible to find Zoro now, if he could get lost when he's inside a building in the forest there was no doubt he was already wandering around lost.

Suddenly she heard a voice that could only belong to one person.

"...Rocket!"

Before she could understand what was happening the box was taken from her hands, and a massive cloud of dust appeared, and in the end she was looking at his face.


"Hm? What was that?" Zoro had just heard a loud noise coming from somewhere and was wondering what had happened.

After a few seconds he decided it was best for him to keep walking soon enough he'd find his way...


There she was looking at the face of the young captain who looked far more confused than her, before she could think of anything it hit her, she was alone with Luffy.

"Yo Robin! Sorry about that I thought you were Zoro hahahaha." he had an apologetic look on his face mixed with a grin "Let me help you pick all of those weeds."

"Oh no that's alright I... Wait, why did you think I was Zoro?" she had a worried tne to her voice but then it changed to one that was more similar to a thread.

"Hm? Oh because of the weed box, it really looked like Zoros head hehe." he didn't seem to notice any change in her so he just continued to pick up the herbs with an innocent look on his face.

Without her noticing all of her temporary insecurity vanished and it turned into a chuckle, and so they resumed what they were doing and soon after only a couple more herbs were on the floor, when she reached for the last so did Luffy and their hands met, before she could react her face turned red and Luffy's face had a look of concern.

"Oi Robin are you alright? I didn't hurt you with my landing did I?"

He was waiting for an answer, and she was trying, but nothing would come out. When did it happen? she wondered, when did she become so deeply affected by the young captain that a small touch was enough to make her go all numb?


Author's Notes: Well this took me a while can't say it turned out the way I was hoping but I think it's pretty decent as far as the story goes, and thanks to all of you who sticked around!
