With Robin
The rest of the Strawhats seemed to be effected by it as well as they all staggered save for Robin who stood confused on what exactly was happening but none the less summoned arms to hold up the dazed Strawhats. She looked to the man remaining in front of them he had yet to move his silver gray eyes watching the Strawhats with cold distain.
Zoro stood tall with the help of Robin's arms but was in no way capable of taking a step, hell he was barely able to keep his eyes open with the enormous weigh that seemed to have hold of his senses. He looked to Robin and silently thanked her for holding them up but as he looked his eyes caught the light off of a thin noose that slowly worked its way around Robin's neck.
"Robin!!!" Zoro roared as he jumped out of his paralytic state with Shuusui aiming directly at the string but as he reached it Robin had already been lifted so he had to pull back as Robin was whisked away leading to all of the Strawhats to fall down.
She didn't have time to think as the noose that threatened to strangle her gave a sharp wrench pulling her in the direction of the exit. She screamed a chocked scream as the pain from her soon to be broken neck made itself known. She found herself unable to summon up arms fast enough to catch her making her wonder what was carrying her away. All she could hear was the faint giggling that sounded faintly of a little girl.
"Robin-Chwan!" She heard Sanji scream as she turned to see him reaching out to her she reached out to him as well but sadly a figure appeared between them and a cane cracked into Sanji's face effectively crushing her hopes of escaping this.
"Yehahahaaha That aint your fight blondy so STAY OUT OF IT!!" Monty screamed as he stood in the air temporarily held himself in the air before kicking and then heading back to the ground near where Sanji had crashed. He cringed as he heard the childish giggle of the ball of pink whisked the archeologist away.
She wanted to scream, to cry but she wouldn't in a sudden burst of courage out of will to save her Nakama she quickly summoned arms that took from herself and headed to the ground at the speed of a bullet and effectively anchored her movement. But at a cost in her surge she had forgotten the thin noose that had been used to pull her this whole time, and when her arm suddenly stopped her movement the noose continued to pull almost snapping her neck. Her assailant seemed to notice because it stopped Robin then felt her chain of arms that held her was ripped apart and then they went back to moving until the noose was unceremoniously dropped
Robin landed on her side nearly causing her ribs to break and Robin was sure her elbow had broken. She struggled to stand and find her assailant but sadly there was no one.
"Up here Nee-san!"a high pitched and sweet sounding voice giggled out. To Robin's surprise there hanging vertically in the air was a young girl with her hands covering her mouth as she giggled. Robin watched as she made a kick to the air before dropping down to the ground in front of Robin.
"Hi Nee-san my name is." But before she was able to finish Robin interrupted her.
"Nadia correct?" Robin interjected watching the child before her she looked to be about thirteen but if what Alf said was correct wouldn't she be about her own age wouldn't she.
Nadia gave Robin a puzzled look before brightening up and then shaking her head and then doing a spin as to present her self before curtsying.
"Yep! Don't know how you knew that but it doesn't matter want to be friends." Nadia chirped as she offered a hand out while rocking herself back and forth on her heels. Robin didn't know how to attack the situation never before had she been faced against a child unlike her crew she had no problem with killing but she was a kid and that was were Robin drew the line.
Robin couldn't help but go over her features she was almost angelic. Her almost platinum curly blonde hair and her porcelain face served as a assist for her deep sea blue eyes. Her outfit consisted of a light pink Lolita dress with a matching pair of slippers that were laced to climb up her leg she had the look of innocence. But on a second look Robin could see the malice, the hatred that seemed to seep out of her. Thousands of questions ran through Robins head almost all of them were what could possible have done this to such an angelic child. But her questions could wait because Robin could see what hid behind that sickly sweet charade was a demonic killer.
"I'm sorry but I think I will pass on the offer." Robin answered while rubbing her shoulder before snapping it back into place. She watched as Nadia went from happily rocking on her heels to crossing her arms and pouting.
"Ugh your no fun Nee-san but just because you don't want to be my friend doesn't mean we cant play." Nadia began with a pout but quickly went back to her joyous self. With those word said she disappeared into almost no where.
Robin twirled around trying to find were the demented child had gone but when she didn't see anything she stopped to walk back in the directions were the sounds of clashing swords broken buildings and the sounds of a stampede were. But just as she began to walk she saw a blur of the child go by but then it disappeared. As she continued she heard whispers and giggles.
Robin wasn't sure whether the girl was an illusion or just fast. The God had said that Dread could get into heads and attack their fears but why would he use the image of one of his own crew mates to strike fear. Robin then saw memories of the past when she was that age she couldn't trust anyone and everyone she began to trust winded up trying to have her killed. But she quickly threw those fears away Luffy and the others would never do that. She smiled knowing she had no fears so Dread could not hurt her.
"Heheheehe! Of course you have fear Nee-san everyone has a fear your just not looking at the whole picture right now." Nadia's voice seemed to whisper into Robin's ear.
"I lost my fears awhile ago." Robin spoke sternly as she continued to walk in the distance she could hear a demonic cackle. Nadia continued to appear and disappear as if she wasn't there.
"Yes and when you lost your fears you gained a new set of fears. I mean come on you were willing to sacrifice the world to make sure they wouldn't be hurt." Nadia laughed as she saw Robin's eyes widen.
"LEAVE MY NAKAMA ALONE!!" Robin screamed before crossing her arms and summoning up arms every where an attempt to catch the young girl. But Nadia just stood in front of her as if she wasn't even there. Maybe Robin had been right maybe she was just an illusion.
Robin had decided she was an illusion and had decided it was time to run but before she could run she felt a pin prick in her neck and then everything went hazy. Robin felt or rather didn't feel the rest of her body anymore. Before she could react she was grabbed from behind and flung across the courtyard like a rag doll. Before she had time to react not that she could have, she found her body tied down with the fine string that once held her in a noose. As the string was pulled Robin found her body moving as if she were a puppet until she was positioned to make her look like she had been on a swing.
"See Nee-san I knew I could get you to play with me. So what should we do first draw or play uncle?" Nadia chirped as she stared wide eyed at Robin awaiting an answer. Robin wasn't happy to have fallen prey to the bubbly child who was now becoming impatient but she was smart enough to know when to play along.
"How about we play hide and sink." Robin spoke finding it weird that she still had the ability to talk despite the lack of feeling in her body. She hoped Nadia would take the bait as the child seemed to think over the question. It was answered with a organ rupturing blow to the stomach as Robin violently hacked blood in desperation to breathe.
"Now Now nee-san I don't remember asking you what you wanted to play I asked which you wanted to draw first or play uncle. Actually now I feel like drawing I am going to draw the prettiest flower." Nadia began sternly but ended in her sickly sweet tone.
Robin finished catching her breathes when her strings brought her to Nadia's eye level as the girl eyed her. Nadia ran her hand across Robin's face ending at the edge of her lips before pulling her hand away. She continued to ghost her hand across Robin's body
"Wow Nee-san you have such a great body I am jealous you must have guy line in up to get time with you." Nadia swooned as she ran her hand across the older woman's body until she reached her left shoulder right above her tattoo.
"Hmm Nee-san you don't seem like the type to get tattoos so this must be that pesky protection charm that freed turtle head. It ruins your beautiful skin Nee-san if you want I could take it off but then again that probably wouldn't heal your beautiful skin anyway." Nadia giggled to herself since she didn't expect Robin to answer her especially with her ruptured kidney causing her pain.
"Oh well anyway I found the place I want to draw my flower for you." Nadia chirped before putting her hand into the hem of her dress and pulling out a pink scalpel. Robin's eyes widened as she looked to the scalpel and knew that the demented child was going to use her as a canvas. Robin tried to move but whatever the child had done it till had effect so Robin did the only thing she could think of scream. She screamed loud and long hoping someone would come to her rescue but all that came was a chop to the neck that caused her to break into hacking coughs again.
"Quit being a baby Nee-san I haven't even started yet." Nadia whined unable to picture her flower with all the screaming, she loved screaming but not while drawing that was when quiet time was suppose to be.
Nadia quickly grabbed Robin's shoulder with her left hand for support and then began to draw with her right. After the initial stab the scalpel pretty much cut for itself Nadia flashed back to when she use to use a machete to draw by the time she finished they were more sculptures compared to drawings. Her scalpel had been a present from her Dread and she promised to treasure it till the day she died.
Nadia's face blushed at the thought of him but she quickly pushed that thought to the side she had a mission to succeed and make him proud. Nadia contemplated ending it right there it would be so easy to just slit her throat and be done with it but then again she hadn't heard a girl besides herself scream in what it was again fifteen years. Nadia started her flower and had all ready finished to petals when she thought of something Robin had to be around her actual age right now maybe she actually knew who they were maybe Monty, Reptile, and Ashtier had been right and they had gotten bounties she thought happily.
"Neh Nee-san how old are you?" Nadia questioned not taking her eyes off her art work that she was concentrating on trying to make the perfect petals.
Robin hardly heard the question as she felt her arm getting carved be a two inch blade that was about three fourths the way in she could feel the knife cut into the bone if it got into the way. Robin tried hard to keep herself from crying rather biting down on her lip to keep from howling in pain. Robin felt the blade leave and almost sighed in relief until she felt it enter her abdomen.
"Hehehe Nee-san I asked you a question how old are you?" Nadia's voice went from sickly sweet to a dark and sinister voice that could make the strongest man run and hide.
"Twenty-eight." Robin answered almost immediately after Nadia started to twist the blade in her gut. To her relief Nadia stopped and looked Robin in the face as if trying to see if she was lying before beaming a smile that showed her pearly white teeth.
"Really! Your twenty-eight I am too well my body isn't but my age is… I think it's so easy to lose track of days in this place what we call fifteen years could have been longer could have been shorter theses people don't help us because none of them are old enough to remember us coming here in the first place." Nadia ending with a sigh but quickly got happy again as she looked over Robin again wondering what it would be like to be like that and having to kill every guy who tried to talk to her just to save them from the unnaturally long mental torture Dread would put them through for merely glancing at her she giggled to herself again.
Nadia removed her blade dreamily from Robin's gut and went back to drawing on Robin's arm as she thought of her life if she had her prey's body. While Nadia drew into Robin she had began to hum in an attempt to block out the now loud and never ending screams that gushed from Robin.
Robin couldn't handle it she prided herself on being to stand with the main fighters of the Strawhats and not need help after taking a punch or two unlike Nami who would choose to stay back and fight with Ussop. But sadly Robin didn't have this sort or pain threshold as Nadia had now begun leaving an imprint of her picture in her very bone not even carrying for her screaming. Robin could no longer see as the tears had started even before the screams she could only hope Nadia was almost finished so she would stop.
In between screams Robin could see and hear the destruction the other two of Dreads crew were causing on the rest of the Strawhats and couldn't help but feel guilty as she thought of wanting to be saved when all Nadia had done was made two cuts.
"Neh Nee-san have you ever heard of the Nightmare pirates?" Nadia asked in a quiet voice as she completed the last petal. She pulled the blade out and waited patiently for the screaming to stop so Robin could answer before putting the blade back in to her gut. Robin stopped screaming the moment the blade came out and quickly thought of the nightmare pirates a terror to the grandline that seemed to come from nowhere the crew itself had never been named since they disappeared but what they had done would be remember forever.
"Yes fifteen years ago a small crew went from island to island slaughtering everyone within the first day of being there. They were thought of as the biggest threat at the time so the marines sent a buster call to an island they were staying at waiting for their logpost to set. The crew escaped the buster call but not before killing each and every marine present that day. After that they said the crew was lost to the sea because they never hurt another island." Robin spoke as if she had just read it she could recall her hatred for that particular pirated crew the most they were their own buster call killing everyone man women children with no remorse. A smile beamed as Nadia did a spin before jumping in place.
"They remember! They remember! I knew they would remember us for what we did Dread and Hoji said they wouldn't because we never left anyone to tell the tale but they must have because you remembered us!" Nadia practically screamed like a child it was hard to tell her age anyway people would often mistake her for eleven or ten along time ago it would be funny trying to explain that she was twenty-eight.
"What you all did was horrible those people were innocent they did nothing to deserve what they got!" Robin roared hating those who kill innocents or for without reason.
"Hehehehe! Silly Nee-san Dread told me this a long time ago and now I am going to tell you the same thing you ready! No One Is Innocent." Nadia chirped as she slashed at Robin in between words for her last sentence. Robin's screams echoed the room as she again tried to move and this time she got a response in her leg. Robin quickly shot her leg up in hope at kicking the child but instead hit air as Nadia appeared a few feet away.
"Is that the Rokushiki technique?" Robin said as she cut the cords that held her not taking her eyes off the demonic little girl who rocked herself on her heels. Nadia's eyes widened and then tightened quickly.
"No this is my ability!" Nadia screamed defiantly like a child not wanting to go to bed. As Nadia kicked the ground and disappeared again trying to surprise Robin, but to her surprise she was quickly captured in sprouting arms.
"Hmm I don't think so now that I know you're not an illusion I won't be fooled again. Now its my turn for questions to start how do you still look like a child when you're the same age as I am."Robin questioned waiting for Nadia to respond. Nadia for her part looked scared out of her mind as she tried to break away but to no avail.
"Grr fine you win we still don't know why we haven't aged Dread thinks it's the island and how it wasn't meant for humans so we don't age or something like that. Now let me go!" Nadia squeeled as she fought to break free.
"No now settle down or you'll get punished." Robin warned but it fell on deaf ears as Nadia continued to struggle. Robin didn't want to break the little girl but the girl was a psychotic killer.
"Mano Clutch!" Robin shouted as an arm sprouted from the arm holding Nadia's left arm and grabbed her pointer finger and snapped it.
"Aaaaaah!" Nadia screamed as the pain of having her finger snapped traveled through her body but the pain brought pleasure. What were screams turned to moans as Nadia wriggled around hoping to receive more punishment. Robin watched in disgust as the girl shook with pleasure wondering what sick mind would touch a thirteen year old angel like that.
"Ooooo! That felt good Nee-san but it wasn't enough let's say you snap my whole arm that will do the trick!" She giggle moaned for a moment before deciding she had played hostage long enough and that now her thoughts of Dread had officially cut off all wants of continuing this.
Robin watched in horror as four arms ripped from Nadia's dress and pulled the arms that bound her apart causing Robin to grunt in pain. Nadia's teeth grew long and sharp and her eyes blackened and grew larger as she began walking closer to Robin.
"Bye Bye Nee-san it's been fun but I have to go." Nadia chirped as she was about to rush forward and drain her of her life an unexpected visitor arrived.
Robin didn't have enough time to react as another child appeared in front of her using the Rokusiki ability and brought his heel down on the top of her head sending her into blackness.
"Ugh Hoji I wanted to beat her! Wait she isn't dead let me kill her." Nadia whined as she looked at the boy of eleven between her and her pray. Hoji just started to walk away not sparing Nadia a glance.
"Grr don't ignore me you parasitic bastard! Hey wait where did you get that energy you have been draining Dread-sama again haven't you!" Nadia pointed an accusing finger at the boy who jumped onto Ashteir's shoulder causing the swordsmen to cringe.
"One Dread told me to tell all of you not to kill anyone and two shut the hell up spider whore." Hoji answered in his almost whisper voice causing Nadia to glare viscously at him.
"What was that you ugly leech at least I can get some unlike you! You look like a skeleton!"Nadia spat hating that Hoji had somehow managed to become second in command making it so Nadia had to take orders from him otherwise she would have killed the bastard years ago.
"Hmm I am a skeleton and you're a slut with eight hands. I think I rather be a skeleton." Hoji almost laughed out knowing the effect it would have on the little girl.
But before Nadia could react Ashtier interjected like he usually does to end their bickering he hated being stuck babysitting.
"Ugh will you both shut up and act your own age! Nadia you're not a whore or a slut that implies your seeing more than one person so calm down and Hoji you are twenty-six years old act it!" Ashtier's voice boomed effectively silencing Hoji and causing Nadia to blush uncontrollably.
"Lets go get Monty before he kills that other guy." Ashtier said and with that left with Hoji as Nadia trailed behind.
Nadia looked back to her little plaything so fragile, so delicate, so weak, and so pathetic Nadia spat at the thought that if not for Dread she may have turned out like that. But it was Robin's weakness that made her so intriguing to Nadia and the little girl started to hope that Robin would make it so they could play again.
