Sorry for the wait, guys, I hit a writer's block.
I'll probably cut this short because I want to move the story up.
(Next morning, on South Side of Mt. Colubo's base …)
Not long after Rosa woke up from her long sleep, they stumbled across a grumpy, scar-faced, brown bear. It began to rise up on its hindlegs and roared loudly to make itself even more threatening to the girl and snake.
Of course this didn't work, Rosa stood her ground against beast, looking up at it while smirking and licking her lips. The bear growled brought its immense paws, armed with sharp claws down on her. However, the young teen saw this coming and jumped high into the air above the animal. The prey only managed to make crater in the ground. It looked up in surprise to see her and made another swipe at her but missed, again. Before it had another gamble to attack again, Orochi leaped out from underneath his master's sleeve.
"Stranglehold!"
She guard snake wrapped itself around the bear's throat with several strong coils. Its turned face turned blue from suffocation and eyes widened as gravity brought Rosa down towards it.
"Soku-Soku no Ono (Speed-Speed Battle-Axe)!"
:D
Delivering a fast and powerful drop-kick onto the bear's neck, it was killed almost instantly as it fell back and collapsed with a loud crash.
"Yay! We get to eat bear meat for breakfast, Orochi-chan" Rosa cheered while throwing her arms up into the air.

(Meanwhile, at the North side of Mt. Colubo's base …)
:D
"Okay, so what's the plan again boss?" asked a Bandit minion.
This earned him a bash on the head from his boss.
"I told you 20 times already!" Momo roared. "We wait here for that troublemaking girl to come through that path in front of us and we ambush her"
"Oh…but what about lunch?"
"NO ONE'S GETTING LUNCH UNTIL I HAVE HER HEAD!"

(Deep in the forest of Mt. Colubo...)
Rosa decided to take a break and have her bear stew breakfast. After she finished eating, she and her snake continued to wander through Midway Forest, leaving the bear's remains for the vultures to pick at. They continued wandering around until she comes across the Gray Terminal.
Rosa is amazed that such a massive garbage dump exists just outside the great gate of Goa. From a bird's eye view, the girl could tell it was filled with trash and outcasts that were probably evicted from Goa City. There had been a few accidental fires at the dump site but every time it returned to being a dump site inhabited by refugees. It's a lawless community without proper medical care, leaving many ravaged by disease.
D:
She had to go there later. Once she's done gazing at the Gray Terminal, she continues her quest to Dadan's house.

After a few hours of wandering past an opening in the forest, Rosa finally reaches the Dadan Family's house and starts knocking on their door, rapidly.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
"Hello! Dadan, are you there?" Rosa called out while knocking louder. "Hello! Hello! Is anybody home?"
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
The girl with the Strawhat failed to hear some heavy footsteps quickly towards her from inside the house. She also didn't see a large middle aged woman with orange hair and a greyish tinge open the door.
SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!
"Hey, I'm here, already!" Dadan bellowed. "Who the hell is it?! …"
The veteran Mountain Bandit takes a good look around. Left, no one's there. Right, no one's there. Then she looked down to see a young teen seemingly hitting nothing, except thin air.
"Huh, Rose?" the Bandit realised. "Where the hell, have you been yesterday, did you get lost in the forest?"
SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!
The old woman looked down vacantly at the girl who didn't notice her presence or that the door was gone and was still knocking on nought. Dadan decided to bring herself down to eye level with the Will of D carrier.
Bad idea.
BOP! BOP! BOP! BOP! BOP! BOP! BOP! BOP! BOP! BOP! BOP! BOP! BOP!
"Oh, hi Dadan" greeted Rose finally seeing her but still bopping on her face.
"YES HI, NOW STOP BASHING MY FACE" she roared.
xxxx
Dadan then invites Rosa into the Dadan Family house and the girl looks around, while the Bandit Boss nurses her nose. She noticed several Bandits, all of which were wearing turbans, black shirts, beige pants and orange sashes. They were doing their own thing: a little man in the corner was gambling with a far larger behemoth and others chores such as counting their 'earnings', cleaning up the place and cooking dinner.
The red-haired woman introduced Rosa to her gang, she explained her relationship to Luffy yesterday to them, so they weren't they weren't as shocked as they would be.

(The next day...)
"Alright then, Dogra, Magra it's your turn to get dinner tonight" Dadan ordered her best henchmen's next tasks.
The 2 men nodded together, not questioning her authority and marched out of the door to look for food.
"Okay so what should we get for dinner this time?" the midget wondered. "How 'bout deer?"
"Nah, we had that last night" the big guy reminded. "What about bear meat stew?"
"How about alligator?" a third voice chimed in.
"I don't know they aren't easy to kill-EHHHH ROSA!" the 2 said with jaws dropped and eyes popped out.
They clearly didn't notice the girl with the Strawhat had followed them.
"I heard you men were going hunting, can I come?"
The 2 looked at each other nervously and nodded.
D:
After all, what could go wrong…?
The boss fight is coming up next Chap!
