Right next Chapter START! A few things about the last chap, I hope Zoro was ok I tried to stick to his character; you have no idea how much editing I did to his talk with Hana. I think that was my longest chap so far. Thanks to everyone who is reading this :) And here goes the next chap (I am worried about Luffy's character as well cause it's difficult to remember how foolish he actually is lol)

Fushigi no Shitsumon

When Luffy and Hana returned to the ship they were immediately interrogated by Sanji and Nami, Nami questions along the lines of 'What happened? Why were you gone for so long?' and Sanji's more like 'Why is that shitty-gomu carrying you Hana-Chan? Should I carry you instead?' Eventually when they calmed down Hana explained how she had hurt herself when she had got lost in the forest and Luffy had helped carry her back. Sanji was still annoyed about Luffy carrying her but he was interrupted by Nami who told Luffy to talk Hana to Chopper's medical room. Luffy obeyed and Chopper hurried along with them to check on Hana.

Luffy placed Hana so she was sitting on the bed and moved to the other side of the room. Chopper looked at her arms, which had quite a few scratches, and dabbed some disinfectant on them before putting on a few bandages for good measure. Then he began to check for any major bruises by gently pressing his hooves on her back and sides. Hana breathed in sharply when Chopper pushed down on her right side.

"I'm gonna have to examine your side." Chopper said realising that it might be something serious, "Gomen but could you take of your top." He blushed slightly as he said this but Hana didn't mind as he was only taking care of her. She nodded and began to lift up her top when she realised something very important. Luffy was still in the room. This time Hana blushed and pushed up top back down as Luffy looked at her. She had to get Luffy out of the room. It was fine with Chopper because he was a doctor and not fully human, but with Luffy in the room...there was no way she would remove her top with him there. Even though she had a bra on she still wouldn't do it, it would be way too embarrassing.

"Ano...Luffy-san" Luffy blinked and continued looking at Hana, she thought quickly, "D-Do you want to get something to eat, I mean you carried me so far you must be tired." She didn't want to be rude and ask him to leave after he saved her and brought her back to the ship. However it didn't quite work as Luffy's answer was, "Don't worry; I won't get tired so easily I'm really strong" he said with a big smile. Hana forced a small smile 'That's not it' she thought 'And I can't believe he's turning down food.'

Thankfully Chopper knew what she meant and bluntly said to Luffy, "Oi Luffy you're gonna have to leave for a bit whilst I check on Hana." Luffy turned to Chopper with a seriously confused look on his face, "Why?" Hana and Chopper sighed as dropped their heads at his question. But before either of them had to answer this incredibly stupid question Robin walked in.

"Sorry to disturb you, but everyone was wondering if we could set sail" Robin asked looking at Hana. Hana blinked slightly confused, "Shouldn't you ask Luffy?" she asked "He is the Captain." Robin smiled and nodded slightly, "Yes. But we wanted to be sure this wasn't your home before we left." She answered calmly. Hana understood and smiled back at Robin, "It's fine we can go." She said. Robin was about to leave when Chopper stopped her "Robin could you take Luffy with you?" he asked. Robin paused and looked around the room to assess the situation. She understood when she saw Hana with her hands on her top and Luffy standing on the opposite side of the room, but before she could say anything Luffy cried out "But I don't wanna go."

Hana sighed again; he was acting like a small child. She mentally shook her head at him but then inwardly smiled at him for being quite cute. She fought down a blush from this thought. Robin smiled gently at the problem's Hana seemed to be having and decided to help, a little. "Deux Fleurs" Two hands appeared from Luffy's back and moved so the hands were covering his eyes. Luffy was shocked at first and looked around very confused. "Oi, what's going on?" He asked. "Sumimasen Captain-san" said Robin "But you're not allowed to look." Luffy crossed his arms not happy with being blinded but didn't argue. Robin turned to leave the room but before she completely left she took control of the hands covering Luffy's eyes and moved the fingers apart slightly so he could see. Robin smiled to herself and left the medical room to go back to her shipmates.

Hana sighed, still a bit concerned that Luffy was still in the room, but as he couldn't see she lifted her top off so Chopper could get a good look at the bruise on her side. It wasn't too big but it covered half of her side below her breasts. Chopper knew how to treat bruises and asked Hana to lie down whilst he got some ice from the kitchen next door. Hana followed his instructions still mildly embarrassed that Luffy was in the room. Soon Chopper returned with some ice in a bag and placed it on Hana's bruise. Luffy who was curious as to what Chopper was doing asked him "What are you doing Chopper?"

Chopper explained that the bruise was due to some blood vessels being damaged and blood was leaking out. The ice was to help constrict the damaged blood vessels and minimize blood leakage and Hana was lying down so that the blood didn't flow as much to the bruised area. He then spoke directly to Hana saying that she would to eat lots of fruit and vegetables to help the blood vessels heal. Hana nodded and reminded herself to talk to Sanji later.

Luffy just nodded his head "I see it's a mysterious treatment." Chopper and Hana sighed but Hana smiled and giggled slightly at him. Luffy saw her laugh from where he was standing and was slightly confused. He didn't think he had ever seen Hana laugh like that before. Chopper checked Hana over for more bruises and asked her to lie on her stomach. Hana did so whilst holding the ice to her bruise. Chopper took one look at Hana's back and gasped.

"What's wrong?" asked Hana hearing Chopper's gasp. Her back didn't hurt too much so she was unsure about his reaction. Chopper thought for a bit before deciding to tell her "Hana, you have scars all over your back." Hana stiffened; her hold body seemed to go ridged. 'Scars...?' Hana turned over and sat up. She looked down to see that there were scars on her front too. There were thin long scars and some small but thicker one. All of them were white and quite difficult to see on her already pale skin, but they were there.

The ice pack had dropped to the floor when Hana had sat up and Chopper picked it up and held it against her bruise. The cold snapped Hana back to attention. "Ah it's probably nothing." She smiled at Chopper with the biggest fake smile she could so not to worry him. Even if he was a pirate and a reindeer he was still a child and she didn't want to upset him. Chopper smiled a small smile back and went to fetch Hana some food.

Hana sighed and looked down at her scars again. What had she done to receive these scars? She was deep in thought until a familiar voice shook her out of it. "Don't worry." Said Luffy looking at her through the gap in Robin's hands, "We're your nakama now so no one will hurt you again" he grinned at her and Hana found herself smiling a real smile. Why was it that when she was with Luffy she felt so happy? He seemed to make all her pain and doubts go away. Although he did bring in other very confusing emotions as well Hana was still very glad she was with him. Hana blushed and looked down away from him. "Thank you" she muttered quietly so Luffy only just heard her.

Chopper returned again with an apple for Hana and told her that he had informed Sanji about her need for more fruit and vegetables. Chopper took one last look at her bruise and told her that she would have to rest for 10 or 20 minutes before he could take off the ice pack and that she was lucky she hadn't got any broken bones so she wasn't to do anything reckless again. Hana smiled and, nodded before putting her shirt on over the ice pack and quickly ate the apple before lying back down on the bed. Luffy sat down on the floor where he was standing to wait for Hana and Chopper continued to look through his books to make sure he could help Hana recover quickly.

When Chopper said it was ok Hana took off the ice pack and stood up again. Luffy seeing what was happening stood up as well to Hana's surprise, but she figured he must have heard her stand up; after all he couldn't see anything with Robin's hands in the way. Chopper explained that she would have to come back in two days for more treatment and that she was allowed to do anything that could make her injuries worse. Hana nodded and smiled at Chopper before thanking him.

Hana then turned to Luffy who still had Robin's hands on his face. Hana wondered how she would get them off as she was finished changing so he didn't need to be blinded any more. Hana moved towards him and leaned forward to put her hands on each of the arms, she was still a bit nervous about getting too close to him. However, no sooner had she touched the arms they both dissolved in a shower of petals. Hana immediately lost her balance and fell forward. She was caught by Luffy who was now holding her by the shoulders. His face was inches away from hers and she blushed deeply, quickly straightening herself to move away from him. But Luffy didn't let go of her. She felt herself go redder as his eyes stared into hers.

"You're ok now?" he asked her. Hana couldn't speak so she just nodded. Luffy smiled at her and she gave him a small smile back. Luffy let her go and still smiling said "Let's go see everyone now." Hana nodded again and Luffy called for Chopper to come too. "Un!" the reindeer cried dropping down from his seat and following them to the deck of the ship.

They were back on the open sea and Hana couldn't see the island anymore. They arrived on the deck of the ship where Nami, Sanji, Franky and Usopp were waiting. Robin and Zoro were nowhere in sight but that didn't bother Hana. Sanji immediately ran to Hana with hearts in his eyes to check that she was all right but he was quickly stopped by Nami who knocked him down before going to see Hana herself.

"Are you ok now Hana?" Hana smiled at how kind her new nakama were and nodded. "I'm ok." She replied. Nami quickly grinned at when she heard this "Good." She said "Now that you're ok you can try this on." She pushed a bag into Hana's arms. Hana blinked and looked down at the bad in her arms. Inside she could make out some clothes and shoes, Hana blinked again and looked up at Nami confused. Nami just smiled back "Go on, you can't keep wearing mine and Luffy's clothes." Hana blushed slightly and nodded before heading into her room.

About 5 minutes later

Hana returned to the deck in her new clothes. She wearing a purple top which clung to her quite tightly, it had straps over her shoulders and then more straps that hung loosely on her upper arms. On her bottom half she was wearing jeans, which also seemed a bit tight, with some carefully positioned rips in it. And finally she had some white trainers on her feet. Hana was slightly nervous about these new clothes but knowing how angry Nami got about clothes she smiled at her and said "Arigato" as she desperately tried to hide the small blush on her face. (Sorry I'm not too good at describing clothes)

Nami smirked and Usopp seeing this quickly rushed over to Hana's side. "Baka." He whispered to her "Nami loves money more than anything. If you accept these clothes she'll make you back triple the amount they cost her." Hana stared at Usopp for a second and saw the look of worry and fear written all over his face, however before she could say anything Nami pushed Usopp away and leaned towards Hana. Nami looked quite scary and Hana tried not to turn and run. "Too late you accepted them." Nami grinned evilly "There's no way anyone can wear clothes that someone else has worn." Usopp looked at Nami with a sweat drop on his head. "But Hana's been wearing you're clothes until just now." Nami kicked Usopp away and he hit the wall with a loud whack. Chopper ran over to him yelling "He's hurt! Doctor! Doctor! Ah that's me!" before checking his wounds. Hana looked back at Nami the evil smile still on her face.

"So you have to pay me back for these clothes by getting me treasure." Nami told her. Hana wasn't sure what to do anymore and she had difficulty speaking to this scary Nami. Thankfully Franky spoke for her "And how's she supposed to do that?" he asked Nami. Nami turned to him with a smile that was slightly less evil than her previous one. "Simple." She replied "We train her to use her Devil Fruit ability." Hana snapped out of her fear and looked at Nami, whose back was still turned to her. "Nami-san..." she began still unsure of what to say. But Nami turned back to face her smiling "You better learn how to use that voice of yours. I want lots of treasure." Hana smiled at her nodded. She had been a bit scared about her ability but if she trained it and could use it a will she wouldn't have to worry. But her thoughts were interrupted by a voice next to her.

"I agree," said Luffy. "It would be really cool if we teach Hana to control her powers. However..." Luffy's face turned serious as he faced not just Hana but everyone on the deck. "We can't use them to get out of fights." Usopp, Chopper and Nami's face fell slightly "But Luffy..." began Usopp as he quite liked the idea of being able to run away and stay alive, but Luffy soon interrupted him. "If I'm gonna be the Pirate King I have to be the strongest pirate, so I'm not gonna to use Hana's power to run away." Luffy continued "Besides if we didn't fight our adventure would be really boring." He grinned at everyone. Franky nodded "I agree with Straw-Hat." He said. "I can't be super if I don't fight battles with my own power." Sanji also agreed saying "A man can't use a woman's power to run." Nami, Chopper and Usopp were still a bit reluctant but they understood what Luffy was saying.

"So Hana," Luffy turned towards his new nakama, "You can't use your powers to stop our fights unless I say so, kay?" Hana nodded. Luffy was now even more amazing in her eyes, that fact that he would chose to fight and protect his friends with his own power rather than take the easy road by using her powers made him much cooler. Nami ponder something for a minute before saying. "I'll ask Robin and we can think on other ways to use Hana's powers." Usopp then had an idea "Hana will probably need a weapon if she's gonna stay in this crew." He said, "Franky and I can work on that." Franky immediately livened up at the thought of making a weapon. "SUPER!" he cried "We'll make you something that can be used with your powers."

Hana looked around her. She really had found great nakama; they were all being so nice and trying to help her. She tried not to cry, but she felt like no-one had ever done this for her. She smiled one of her biggest smiles and thanked everyone with a loud voice. They all turned to Hana seeing her smile and the slight tears in her eyes. They all smiled back and said "What are nakama for?" Hana desperately fought back the tears as she kept smiling. Nami took her by the hand, "Come on lets go get Robin so we can figure this power out." Hana nodded and Sanji ran to her saying "I'll get you a drink Hana-Chan!" "OI Sanji! MESHI!" cried Luffy chasing after Sanji as he went to the kitchen. Usopp grabbed Chopper and they went to Franky's workshop with Franky following behind them. Hana smiling went over to the aquarium, which was directly under the kitchen, and waited as Nami's went to find Robin. 'These are the best nakama in the world' she thought.

Nami soon return with Robin and all three of them sat in the aquarium. Hana hadn't been in the aquarium yet and she quickly decided that she liked it. At first she just kept looking at all the fish and completely ignored Nami when she spoke to her. After feeling Nami's annoyance at being ignored, Hana quickly diverted all her attention to the red haired girl sitting next to her. "First," said Nami "We should of ways to use powers in battle other than controlling our opponents." Hana thought about what Luffy had said. She had to get into battles to get stronger. But if she couldn't just tell them to stop like she had when Luffy was hurt, what could she do.

Robin was the first to speak up. "You could use your powers on yourself." She suggested. Hana and Nami looked at Robin "What do you mean Robin?" asked Nami. Robin thought for a bit before explaining herself "You could try to tell yourself that you're strong so you could fight your enemy." Hana nodded and Nami began to think to "Maybe you could try telling yourself other things as well." She said "Like you can run fast or jump high or maybe even that you can use swords or martial arts." Hana thought about all of these things but she didn't want to be a copycat but telling herself that she could fight like Zoro or Sanji, she had to find something that was uniquely hers. But what?

"Maybe we should just start on controlling them for now." Robin said seeing the confused look on Hana's face. Nami and Hana both nodded. "Ne Robin-san?" Hana asked. Robin looked at Hana and smiled "Yes Hana?" "What does it feel like when you use your powers?" Robin thought about Hana's question before saying "I have to concentrate a bit, but I reach out and find this strange feeling in me that just seems different." Robin closed her eyes and raised her hands to their usual position when using her ability. "I then just think of what I want to appear and how many and then..." A hand appeared on the floor in front of them. "But it will be slightly different for you as you have a different ability." Hana looked at Robin questionably. "Different?" she asked Nami nodded understanding what Robin meant "Well Chopper has an ability but he probably thinks of what form he wants to take." Hana nodded "And Luffy too, he has to think of what he wants to stretch, although he is always rubber so she doesn't have to think about being rubber." Hana nodded again but blushed slightly at the mention of Luffy. However unfortunately for her both Robin and Nami noticed.

Nami looked at Hana carefully and Hana backed away a little not sure why Nami was staring at her. "You don't?" Nami asked her. Hana was very confused by Nami's sudden strange behaviour, "Don't what?" Nami wasn't sure how to ask Hana and she didn't want to say something so stupid; however Robin seemed to have an idea of what Nami wanted to ask and simply said "Luffy." The effect was immediate. Hana's face went slightly red and she looked away from both of them. Nami was very shocked and Robin smiled slightly. "YOU DON'T!" cried Nami again. Hana finally realised what they wanted to ask and she furiously shook her head. She could never admit to liking Luffy, especially not to Nami who might try and turn it into a profit. Robin kept smiling and small laugh escaped her mouth. Nami had gotten over her initial shock and began to sense that something interesting was happening and she soon became determined to get the information she wanted from Hana. 'This will be fun' thought Nami.

"Come on say it." Nami nudged her, "You like Luffy don't you?" Hana blushed even redder and shook her head more. Nami grinned "Come on admit it. I'll answer any question you have about me if you tell me." Nami was really determined now. If there was going to be any gossip on this ship she want to know everything. Hana thought about it and realised that she did have a question for Nami, but she still didn't want to admit it. Hana looked past Nami at Robin. Robin was smiling at her with her normal nice smile. 'Maybe it wouldn't be bad if these two found out' she thought. 'I'd at least have someone to talk to about it.' Hana looked back at Nami who had also put on a sweet smile but Hana was suspicious of the true intent behind that smile. Hana sighed, still blushing slightly. "I'll answer your question if you answer one of mine." She said. Nami was eager to find out about Hana's crush so quickly agreed. "So you do like Luffy?" asked Nami. Hana blushed and looked away before slowly nodding her head. Nami grinned and this information and was about to ask something else before someone burst into the room. Nami jumped in her seat. "Sanji-Kun!" she cried as she saw the blond cook enter the aquarium. "Nami-San!" Sanji cried, a different cry from Nami's one, as he skipped into the room. "I brought snacks for all of you" he bowed low in front of them passing a plate of snacks to Nami before turning to Hana. "And for Hana-Chan a drink with the vitamins you need for your bruise." Hana took the drink from Sanji thanking him "What is it?" she asked him and he answered "Lemonade my dear!"

"Hai Hai!" said Nami before pushing Sanji out of the door, "We're having a conversation so please don't interrupt." Hearts appeared in Sanji's eyes at being touched by Nami. "Of course Nami-San." He said and closed the door but not before given Nami a big smile. Not his usually silly smile but a genuine smile like the one he had when buying new ingredients or when he talked of All Blue. Hana saw this and as Nami sat down again Hana turned to her and blurted out without thinking "Are you and Sanji a couple?"

HAHA nice cliff hanger! As you may have guessed the next chap is mainly Sanji-Nami hehe :) god I am really slow at this, sorry I had a bit of writer's block but it seems to be fading. Oh in case you didn't spot the hidden message the next chap will be a bit smutty ;) Oh and all that stuff about Hana's bruise was real medical stuff I ain't just making it up I put a lot of effort into my work hehe. I may get a bit stuck again after the next chap as I am currently trying to figure Hana's ability myself, (yes folks this is mainly thought of as I go along) I have many ideas but I must think about if they will work.
