The Lost Sea Files

Chapter 11:The Straw Hats Snap Back at the Hulla Hulla Witch!

Zoro's Journal Entry

We are now rewinding back to Hulla Hulla Island.

Zoro reveals the time they all forgot their own pettiness and fought the Hulla Hulla Witch together. The Luffy/Robin thing was forgotten- at least for a bit.

Franky knocking out our captain did something to me.

I watched Luffy fall. The one who rescued me and allowed me to cater my own dream, fall harshly to the dirt and when blood flew from his mouth, I drew my sword. "Man, Franky! Why'd you do that?" I rush over to Robin and Luffy and Franky stood there huffing and puffing.

"I asked a question."

Franky pulled off those damn sunglasses and eyed me as if he never knew me. Then he looked at Luffy on the ground.

"I- I don't know."

I offer my hand to Luffy and Robin did the same. I knew we shouldn't have a cyborg on our crew! Why do Luffy do stupid things like that? He is out of his rubbery mind for that one. Franky could short circuit and try to kill us all.

Luffy stands and dusts himself off.

At this point, it look like a purple sun is overhead. Yes. I said island is weird. Robin only told us a little about the place. It ran off of emotions or something like that?

There was literally no other creature here. No people. Not even a bush. Tall trees and dirt. That's it.

We all stood by the lip of the ocean, along the shore as Luffy stretched out his body and neck. Chopper gave hive some gauze, but Luffy waved it away.

"That will be the last time you do that to me Franky. Just so you know."

Franky pointed at Luffy. "I know what you are doing, Brat!"

"Franky," Robin said in a grave tone. "Enough."

Franky looked wounded hearing that from her. I was confused as hell. Did I miss something here?

I know I sleep a lot, but I feel as if I missed an entire chapter of something important.

Chopper looked at me then with some kind of guilt riddled on his face. "Hey Chops, you know what the hell is wrong with everybody?"

"Not quite."

I took that as his honest answer.

After a while we all shot the breeze, forgetting about that Franky and Luffy mess and I caught some Z's. I need to amp up on sleep to stay strong, you see?

It was sometime later when I heard a shout. Not normal shouting, but a shout of alarm.

I opened one eye and Nami is shaking my arm. Her big breasts shoved on my cheek and gently move her away. Itell her I'm up.

In more ways than one I am up. Geesh.

"Yeah? What is it?"

"Just come on! There is some dark cloud hovering over there! I shouted your name to wake you up! It looks…weird. The weirdest thing I've seen all day."

She has her stick in her hand and I stand and run with her. The rest of the crew are huddled and looking up at the sky north westward.

Sure enough, some black cloud abnormal from the rest, moved inch by inch toward us. The island was awash in violet light from the strange, purplish sun. Were we on another planet?

"What the hell is it?" I say as I catch up with everyone else.

Franky shrugs, "Hell if I know. It was tiny at first, then just grew."

Luffy, back to his old self cheesed, and giggled. "A big floaty cloud! Could be a sign right?" He bounced up and down.

I rolled my eyes.

"Doesn't look like something to smile at, Luffy!" Usopp chastised, and rightly so. This cloud felt…wrong. Ominous.

Suddenly, I felt the overwhelming need to stab Sanji. Just like that. A powerful, emotion of hatred and envy.

I always felt that need, but on that island, it was so sharp, I drew my sword and stood near him. No one questioned why I made a move like that and Sanji was not paying attention, he was riveted by the cloud.

I saw his hand twitch though as he tried to reach out to Nami's orange hair.

No one saw this, but he took a strand in his hand, let it drift over his pale, bony fingers and he sniffed her hair.

I hit him in the back with the hilt of my sword, sending him sprawling to the ground.

I climb over him, to jab him again just as something hot swept my ribs.

He used his stupid Diable Jambe on me!

We fought hard. I guess I fought better. Who knows?

Pretty soon we were all fighting.

I can't tell you how this happened, well now that I reflect on it, it had something to do with that island. That cloud.

I caught Robin off in the distance, not fighting anyone, just looking at us.

I wanted to hit her too, just for seeming like she was unaffected. It was like a potent hate I had for her!

Suddenly and out of nowhere, a cackling sound grew. Soft at first, then loud enough for us all to hear. I swear, we would have killed each other. Franky and Luffy were still going at it, they didn't hear the cackle at all. Figures.

I look up just as Sanji kicks my neck and I fall to the ground. When I look up a gorgeous, long legged, brown skinned woman with moss green hair like mine, emerges from the cloud. Her green eyes were as green as the tree leaves, her smile wide and menacing. "Oh look! Fighting! I love it!" She claps her slender hands.

Man. How can someone so beautiful, be so wicked!

"Hey, stop!" I call out. Everyone halts and immediately, Luffy is by my side. I am grateful.

"Who is she?" He asks, taking in her appearance too. She is covered in some traditional Japanese gown that is green and red, with a long slit riding up to her hip, revealing creamy brown skin. Sanji whirls his crazy ass up and instead of assessing the situation(well, I was checking her out too), he suddenly gushes how pretty she is and Nami, thankfully knocks him out with her clime-attack stick.

The woman from the cloud, she rides a silver broomstick and hovers over us, her breasts spilling over the top of her gown. But that is not what peaks my interest.

Her sword by her side does.

It is long and silver too. Even its handle.

"You disturb my island, then you pay!"

"What?" Luffy said confused. "Your island?"

Robin stands next to him, a hand on his shoulder and with so much care she adds, "Yes. This is her place. The witch of Hulla Hulla Island I told you about." Robin stares up at the witch with worry and wisdom.

"No togetherness. That's my theme. Now you all go up in steam!" She sings.

A jet of something flew from her sword which she was very quick to draw, but with Sanji's leg power and my 36 caliber motion, we deflect it and tell everyone to run.

The witch is stunned for a minute then says, "A challenge?" Such a pretty voice and face. "I like it!"

But she was trying to kill us. Dammit!

Luffy did not want to run. He looked up, darkness clouding his face. His straw hat firmly in place. "We can take her," he says with determination.

At that moment, we all stood behind him, my sword was drawn, Usopp's kabuto was drawn, ready, aim and about to fire, Robin had her arms crossed, ready to unleash her flower-flower fruit.

We. Were. Ready.

But the fight proved nearly deadly.

I'm not one to write much, but let's just say, the witch gave it all she got. She and I had a duel with swords for what seemed like days, and she was magnificently trained. A skilled swordswoman, while at the same time, shifting so the steam could be sprayed from the end of her sword.

Then with some magic words, some little clouds burst from her big cloud, then morphed into some smaller versions of herself that ran and threw fireballs at everyone. The mini-witches were cruel little gnomes.

Later, we learned her name was Jaime Hulla of some unknown island.

We cared not for her name then. Luffy pulled the gum-gum gatling move which tossed her butt at sea, and when I felt she would definitely come back, I unmercifully, cruelly, sliced her with my highest caliber move. The power from my weapon sent her flying back with white eyes and a spray of green hair.

That day lives on, haunting my dreams actually. Sometimes I wish we would have talked to her, learn more...

The good part was that we fought good and hard.

Sanji cooked up a mean feast and we sailed onward aboard the Thousand Sunny.

Sometime later as the stars dotted the black sky, I saw a silhouette of Luffy and Robin. His hand possessively wrapped about her waist and she leaned her head down on his shoulder. They were so close.

Too close. His hand was tight on her.

I close my eyes and for the better part of our cruise, I see green hair and brown skin in my dreams…

To be continued…

A/N: Hi guys! I thought I would venture off a bit with a tiny bit of action. Stay tuned for more Robin and Luffy! And as always, I thank you a million for reading and reviewing!
