Time on the Sea

Chapter Nine:

Walking leisurely down the dirt road, towards the Sea, I stop. Noticing that someone's following me…

"Who's there?" I turn around quickly

The blank road becomes suspicious. Then 4 claw marks appear in a tree trunk beside me, then another 4 in the dirt. "Wha-"the invisible enemy manages to cut one of my thighs, leaving 4 rips in my leggings, blood seeps down my leg.

I focus, and see a man, running around the path, its Klahadore… with claw like weapons attached to his hands, cutting everything they touch.

A hand goes for me, I duck easily, "Too slow butler, if you really are one"

He rushed forward for my stomach, and I just take a step back, the attack just grazing.

He stops, his eyes are calculating.

"What? Shocked I'm faster than you?" I laugh, and run circles around him.

Klahadore lunges, and misses. "Not this time bub!" I dart down back towards town, but my feet trip over something, a wire and I go flying, to get a face-full of dirt.

"Ow~" I get up to my knees, and look at Klahadore, standing above me. I laugh "Baka~, whatever you're planning, it won't work"

He growls, and kicks me in my ribs; I hear a large crack and fall again, curling up in pain.

My cheek stings, I rub it, blood stains my hand; he cut it. I growl, as he kicks me again, and again, and again pain erupts as he hits my stomach, and some blood dribbles from my mouth

I laugh lightly, through the pain and stare him right in the eyes "See ya" I smirk and charge past him, right into town as fast as I can go. Where would they be? The restaurant? I run by there, no Luffy…. Nowhere, where are they?

Running around the small town, I stop outside the gates of Kaya's mansion, my stomach growls. Damn, I'm empty…

I cough up some more blood, and hold my throbbing ribs.

"Pirate-san?"

I turn suddenly to the voice, "Agh" and wince in pain, my stomach growls again. Kaya is there, on the other side of the gate, "What's wrong? What happened?"

"Miss…" I fall to my knees, she rushes out, and to my side "What's wrong? What hurts?

"Food~" my stomach grumbles one last time, and I pass out.

With the crew on a beach:

"The village is gonna be attacked? Is that true Straw-hat Niichan?"

"They're going to kill Kaya-San?"

"Oh…My god!" The three Usopp pirate kids panic.

"Yep, That's what the butler said, no doubt about it!" Luffy confirms,

"Oh, yeah why were you sleeping over there anyways?" asks Zoro, He Nami and the kids found luffy asleep at the bottom of a cliff by the ocean, he and Usopp learned of Klahadore's plans and the hypnotizer put him to sleep.

"Where's Melody?" Asks Luffy, looking around for her

"Melody, said she was going for a walk" Nami answers.

The three kids are bickering in the background, "That's why your Captain ran into the village in such a hurry, to warn everyone!" Nami concludes, the three kids stop and listen to her "Well that's good you're the first to know, you should escape while you can! It'll be too late when the pirates get here!"

The three then whisper among themselves "Gotta Hurry!" they yell, and dash away from the sea, into town.

"Oh. No!" Luffy screams

"What now?" Zoro sighs

"We haven't bought our meat yet! Even the butcher will run away!"

"LUFFY! We should concentrate on finding Melody!" Nami screams at the captain.

"Oh ya!" Luffy laughs causing Zoro to sigh even more.

Back with Melody:

"Ugh…" I open my eyes and there is Kaya's worried face above me "Agh!" I jump up, banging heads with her.

"Ow~" she holds her head

"Damn, that smarts…. Sorry, are you ok?"

"Ya, ya I'm ok" she smiles. "Looks like you're doing better"

I look down, my shirt and leggings are missing, instead a white night gown covers my body, many over bandages. My face glows red, "W-who changed me?"

"Oh, don't worry Pirate-san it was me" Kaya explains

"Thanks, I'm Melody by the way" I smile, and my stomach growls

"Kaya" he giggles "I've got some food for you, you must be very hungry." She motions to a tray with an assortment of food, next to me.

"Perfect, thanks, my devil fruit uses lots of food as fuel" I start to dig in.

"Devil fruit?" she questions

"Yea, it's like a special fruit that gives the user strange powers, but takes away their ability to swim. I ate the Speed, Speed fruit, so I'm super-fast."

"Oh" she understands.

"Agh!" I scream "I remember!" I grab my head, shakes it furiously. "Your Butler is evil! He attacked me!" I cry.

Kaya looks down at her hands that lay in her lap. "I'm sorry, I didn't know until I found Merry, my other servant. He was attacked as well, he's ok now." She explains "I am planning on confronting him. I was just waiting for you to wake up."

"What, he can kill you" I worry.

"I know, but I have to." She smiles sadly. "He… he killed my parents… this is my problem"

"No" I stand. "This isn't just for you, I'll help, and you saved me so let me" I smile.

Kaya stands shocked, and nods silently.

"Come on,"

"But, your wounds"

"I'm fine, the food helped. Now I gotta change, where are my clothes?"

I change back into my leggings and blue T-shirt, Kaya cleaned them before and she puts on a coat,

"Hop on" I motion to her to hop on my back, "I'll race us to the docks, they're most likely there"

Kaya agrees, and I run us there.

What we find, is shocking.

"Klahadore, stop it!" Kaya yells

Hello another redone, done and gone!

Yay! Sorry it's still short, lots to change.
