OMG! 3 reviews! :D I'm soo happy rn! I thank you very much! A thank you to the people who also favorited and followed this story T_T makes me proud.
As for the previous statement from CallmeEevee... Wait, first of all, thanks for the three reviews ^^ lol as for Yuki's grandfather's life being in danger, you'll figure out why Yuki was saying that in the first few sentences lol
Chapter 4: Decision.
"Why would the Marines kill your gramps if they want him to make weapons for them?" Zoro asked a reasonable question for once.
"Why?! Because! My gramps was a former pirate and he sells weapons to pirates!" Yuki explained. "Gramps being able to make weapons was a plus and that was the only reason why they didn't kill him! They have plenty of blacksmiths, my gramps was just better! They can kill them anytime they want. Truthfully, I convinced them to let me pay them to get him back, and they somehow agreed. I don't want all that money to go to a waste!"
"Is that so?" Zoro nodded his head, pretending he understood. He suddenly felt uncomfortable and decide to leave; he could tell Yuki was getting emotional and wasn't to good with that kind of stuff. "Well, I'll be going then." He hurried away.
"He really didn't understand a word I just said?!" She sighed, wiping a tear from her eye.
As Zoro walked out he was surprised to see the whole crew listening to the conversation. "Marimo you dumbass!" Sanji kicked Zoro. "Why would you threaten such a beautiful lady?!"
"AH? Since when did I threaten her?!"
"Well, you warned her not to mess with us, and that if she did, you wouldn't sit still." Robin reminded the swordsman.
"Yeah! That wasn't nice!" Luffy, Usopp and Chopper shouted.
"Zoro, you idiot!" Nami shook her head.
"A-AH?!" Zoro looked at them angrily. All he was doing was trying to protect the crew!
"Yuki wouldn't turn us in!" Luffy crossed his arms in a huff. "She's our nakama!"
"That's right, that's right!" Chopper and Usopp said in unison.
Behind her door, Yuki smiled faintly and then nodded her head. "Then, I've decided."

That night the Straw-hat crew could hear a lot of ruckus coming from her grandfather's work room. "It sounds like she's looking for something." Usopp thought aloud. The other guys were asleep excluding Chopper and himself. The guys were sleeping in the living room while the woman were in Yuki's. "I wonder what."
"Hmm... I'm going to go get some milk." Chopper yawned and got up. When the reindeer would have trouble sleeping he would often go and drink some milk to calm him down and it would help him sleep better.
Yuki walked out of the room as quietly as she could. She held a long knife in her hand and hugged it tightly. As she was about to walk outside she heard small footsteps behind her and saw that Chopper was coming. She quickly put the weapon down on one of the showcases. "Ch-Chopper!"
"Ah Yuki." He rubbed his eyes and smiled. "What are you doing?"
"Eh? I'm just going for a walk."
"With a knife?" Chopper tilted his head in the same way Luffy would do.
"I-It's dangerous outside!" She panicked.
"Oooh..." Chopper yawned once again. "I'm going to drink some milk and sleep." He explained as he grabbed a glass of milk from the fridge-kept especially for the reindeer. "Good night." He walked away.
Somehow, Yuki sighed in relief. "Why the hell was I so nervous?" She wondered. She hurriedly grabbed her knife once again and ran off.

Yuki hid the knife in a place that no one could find. She walked to the Marine Headquarters and nodded towards the familiar Marines. However this time, one came up to her. "Captain Hugo isn't here right now. However, he ordered us to take you to Kaozu if you come and tell him your decision." The soldier explained.
"I-Is that so?" Yuki nodded her head, understanding and wanted to sigh with relief. "It's better that he's not here. Looks like I'm getting lucky." As the Marine slowly leaded her to the usual room, Yuki changed her normal routine. She suddenly hit the back of the Marine's neck hard, causing him to pass out immediately. "Sorry about that." She apologized and ran inside an unknown room, closing the door behind her. She found that she was in a room with a lot of papers. She skimmed throughout the papers and looked for any reports regarding her grandfather and his location on this huge base. After searching for a while, she found a folder full of WANTED posters. As she opened it she saw that Luffy's crew was there. Flipping through the papers, she saw that her gramps was there too. It was an older picture and when Yuki saw the amount her grandfather was wanted for, she gasped. "Wh-What the hell?!" She almost tossed the paper in surprise. "How the hell does he have such a high bounty?! Just what did-"
"HEY! What do you think you're doing?!" A marine walked inside in surprise, pointing a gun at her. It was obvious he was a rookie for his legs were shaking in fear. Yuki kept the folder and then ran towards the man in a flash. She drop kicked him and then knocked him out using the back of her knife. "Amateur." She somewhat scoffed. "It looks like they figured out I knocked out the other Marine though." She peeked towards the outside of the door and saw Marines running everywhere. "There's an Intruder!"
"Tch. That was too quick." She sneakily walked through the base and went from room to room.
After avoiding people and fighting off lower ranking Marines, Yuki unknowingly ended up in a strange room. "What is this?" The whole room was full of icecream and cake posters. "What the hell?!"
"You must be the intruder everyone's talking about in this part of the base." Suddenly she heard a click and turned to see a large woman standing by the door. "I am Lieutenant Aisa." She stated as she ate a piece of cake.
"Lieutenant? Kaozu is a Commander so you're one rank below?" Yuki took out her knife as a precaution. "You're slightly higher ranked then the normal soldiers huh?"
"That's because of my devil fruit." She explained as she ate some more. "I ate the Tabe-Tabe fruit. Because of that, whatever I eat, I become!" She suddenly turned into a cake and Yuki stared at her in disbelief.
"HOW THE HELL DOES THAT DO ANYTHING?!" Yuki snapped, not taking the woman seriously. Suddenly the cake lady jumped up and down, and increased in size. "You will get smashed with my weight!" She laughed.
"WHERE THE HELL IS YOUR FACE?!" Yuki screamed as she ran away from the woman. "I don't have time for this!" She slid to the side and got her knife. "Well, knives are here for cutting cake!" She jumped up and was about to slice the cake in half but when she tried it just poked the cake woman.
"Silly girl! I won't go down that easily!" The woman suddenly turned into a large pancake and flew towards Yuki. Yuki managed to avoid the attack and noticed the pancake slice the walls and desks.
"I guess you're not a Lieutenant for nothing..." She sweat-dropped.

"Are you sure, Chopper?!" Luffy questioned for the 10th time as they ran.
"Y-Yes! Yuki defintely took a weapon with her!" Chopper insisted. "I thought it was weird, so this is why!"
"Hmm... instead of turning us in, she's fighting?" Robin somehow admired her. "She's quite brave.
"YUKI-CHAN! I'M COMING FOR YOU!" Sanji spun around.
"That stupid woman..." Zoro scoffed.
"Wait doesn't this mean we're also invading the Marines?!" Usopp noticed and Chopper's jaw dropped. "EHHH?!"
"We don't have a choice!" Nami answered. "Yuki's doing this because she doesn't want to turn us in!"
"Yeah! Besides, Yuki's our Nakama! I won't let her fight alone!" Luffy grinned.
"What if we go there and she's not even there..." Usopp whispered and then glanced to the side. "ZORO! YOU'RE GOING THE WRONG WAY!"

Yuki put her hands on her hips in victory. "Hmph! I cut you up in the end!" She bragged to herself. Aisa was cut in half in her cake form. "I really don't want to see what she looks like when she turns back to norma thoughl." The woman shivered. As she opened the door she saw a familiar person standing right in front.
Yuki's mood changed as she glared at the man in anger. "Kaozu."
To be continued! I really liked Aisa honestly... she was funny. UHMMM all the information about the Marine ranks and everything were thanks to One Piece Wiki btw. I did not know that at the top of my head lol.
Uhm... please review and until next time! :D
