Hey readers, sorry for the big delay! I'm in my last year of high school and trying to finish strong so that I can walk haha! I've also got some personal problems going on so chapters may not come out as soon as you would like.

I am going back into the cannon story after this chapter, which is mainly for Chopper. I am also considering not putting every single chapter into the story, and only acknowledging them at times, but I'll keep most of them so don't worry. Now enjoy, here comes chapter 11!

Welcoming a Crewmate

The group of pirates, including Chopper now, was now in the headmaster's room. Robin explained the situation they were in: the traveling to a different world, the new friends, and the monster high school that they are now all in. Choppers face was filled with mixed emotions and confusion. Zoro and Luffy of course had fallen asleep near the beginning of the story, while Mikogami sat in his chair with his dark grin. Chopper was very creeped out by him and kept his distance.

"And so that's what has happened to us Chopper, and now you have joined us here." Robin finished. Chopper sweated a little, still drinking in all the information.

"I can't believe that this happened… not that I don't believe you, but to think it's been a few months since you got here, its hard to think…" Chopper said exasperatedly.

"Well, since you are now here, it would be wise to register you into the school." The Exorcist now added after his silence. He made Chopper jump in fear and hide behind Robin. The archeologist turned to Mikogami, smiling and nodding.

"Yes, I think that would be best for everyone."

"So you're gonna join us Chopper? That'd be awesome!" Luffy piped in as he grabbed Chopper. Apparently he was listening more than the others thought.

"I guess but the school sounds really scary!" Chopper said shivering.

"It's not really; we even have a bunch of friends we hang out with now! You gotta come meet 'em!"

Chopper perked up when Luffy said they made new friends. Usually the people that Luffy befriended were nice.

"Alright, let's go soon then!" Chopper said more cheerily. Luffy smiled widely and nodded. He grabbed Chopper by the arm and pulled him out of the room while running.

"See you guys later!" Luffy shouted back and Chopper waving goodbye as they go.

"Oh my, I haven't registered him yet… " Mikogami said with a dark chuckle. "I'm sure it will be fine until he is." Robin answered him with a small smile.

"Oi, is the meeting over?" Zoro said quickly sitting up, finally awake.

"Hey everyone!" Luffy said as he burst through the door of the newspaper room. All were present except for Moka. They were all surprised by his sudden entry, but greeted him curtly still.

"Huh, where's Moka?" He asked as he looked around the room.

"She said she'd be a bit late today." Tsukune answered.

"Ok then, I'll just have her meet Chopper later. Guys, this is my friend Chopper, back from my home!" Luffy said happily holding out his arm in introduction. Of course being the nervous little doctor he was, he was hiding on the wrong side of Luffy. The entire group looked at him curiously, but both the succubus and witch got closer to look at him.

"H-hi!" Chopper squeaked out. The girls stared intently at him, but finally picked him up and squeezed him in a hug.

"He's so cute and fluffy!" Kurumu said as she sways him in her arms. Yukari grabbed him out of her hands and held him in a tight hug.

"Stop it boob monster, your choking him with your udders!" The little witch said. Chopper was too scared to do or say anything in the matter. Luffy was chuckling on the side while Tsukune and Gin had sweat drops.

"What'd you say you little flat chest?" Kurumu said angrily. The two got in each other's faces, giving the reindeer an opportunity to escape from them.

"Are they always like this?" Chopper whispered, and the other three nodded in agreement. "It reminds me of Zoro and Sanji a bit." Chopper thought aloud, him and Luffy now laughing together about it. Zoro finally walked in scratching his head and looking irritated.

"Oi, why'd you guys leave me like that?"

"Zoro-nii!" Yukari shouted as she jumped on him happily.

"Yukari, get off!"

"'Nii?" Chopper said now thinking, but then his jaw dropped to the floor and his eyes popped out, "You have a sister Zoro?"

"NO!","YEP~!" Yukari and Zoro shouted at the same time.

"By the way, what kind of monster is he?" Gin asked Luffy, ignoring the others who were fighting.

"He's a reindeer man!" Luffy said happily, although the others face faulted.

"What kind of monster is that?" The werewolf and human asked. Luffy didn't answer as he went over to Chopper trying to get him to dance.

"Hey everyone, sorry I'm late!" Moka's voice rang through the door. She looked a bit tired from possibly running.

"Hey Moka!" Luffy said waving and bringing Chopper over to her.

"This is my friend Chopper, he's gonna come to school here now!" Luffy explained happily. She looked at him for a second and smiled genuinely.

"You're so cute! Nice to meet you Chopper." Moka said sweetly. The reindeer blushed and jumped out of Luffy's hands.

"Don't think you can make me happy with your compliments you jerk!" Chopper said although doing his happy dance, making all the girls "awe" together while watching him.

The next day, Chopper was introduced into school. He was able to get assigned the same class as Luffy and their friends. Many looked at him with wonder, never before had they seen such a monster.

"Teacher, how come new kid gets to be in his true form?" a random student asked, because Chopper was still in his small form, but now wearing a smaller version of the school uniform.

"Well that's because his teachers have all been given notices from the headmaster to let him stay as he is, something about his human form not coming out right." Nekonome explained. She looked at the reindeer and pointed to a seat next to Zoro.

"That is where you will be assigned, ok?" She spoke, and Chopper nodded nervously and went to his seat. As he went, he was receiving fierce gazes from many of the other students, malicious and disgusting. He shivered greatly and quickly got to his seat next to Zoro, who looked at him reassuringly.

"Don't worry about all of them; they're just a bunch of losers." Zoro spoke, loud enough for everyone to hear him. They all backed down, knowing his strength from the rumors.

"Thanks Zoro." Chopper said a little more lightly now, which the swordsman nodded to in response. The class was still boring to all, with both Zoro and Luffy having fallen asleep as usual. Chopper, however, was a good student and listened to the lesson being taught with intent. Finally the bell rang and both pirates woke up suddenly.

"Cool let's go!" Luffy said happily as he left the room.

"You were asleep a second ago, now you're all full of energy?" Tsukune asked with a sweat drop. Moka chuckled and followed after Luffy with Tsukune behind her. Zoro rose slowly and yawned.

"Come on Chopper, let's go." He spoke, looking back at the reindeer, who seemed to be writing something down.

"Hold on, I have to finish my notes real quick!" the doctor spoke but not turning to the swordsman. Zoro shrugged and left out the door. He waited a bit outside for the reindeer but got bored. Looking around he found a vending machine, and decided to get a drink.

"Its only down the hall, I'll be back in a bit." Zoro thought to himself, now walking towards the drink machine. After grabbing a soda (to his disappointment, there was no sake for him to drink) he started to make his way back. He walked to where he thought the spot was and opened the door.

"Oi Chopper are you-"

Only to walk into a broom closet.

He mentally cursed and left to another corner of the hall and opened the door, only to find Ms. Kiriko's class.

"Oops, sorry wrong class." He said as he was about to leave.

"Oh don't worry about it Zoro-kun, by the way I'd like to talk to you about something." She spoke before he was gone, making him stop.

"Can it wait; I'm looking for someone-

Suddenly the door closed in front of him, stopping him in his tracks. Ms. Kiriko was suddenly right next him, brandishing her womanhood.

"No, I think we should talk about it now." She said, but sounding seductive. Zoro deadpanned and started to back away.

"Something about her is creeping me out." Zoro thought as she scooted a little closer to him.

"I've been overlooking your grades, and they are just terrible, especially in my class." She said, although more plainly than her other words.

"Yeah, so?"

"I think that you and I need to have some one-on-one tutoring sessions…" She said. Zoro didn't find this wrong at least… until she started to take off her coat.

"Oi, what are you doing?" He said exasperated.

"Like I said, we should be doing some one-on-one tutoring… very intimate one-on-one tutoring." She said now much more lustful than before, cornering Zoro in the room.

"I think your tutoring is going someplace wrong!" Zoro said now freaking out.

"Damn it Chopper, why'd you have to get lost?" Zoro mentally screamed as the teacher proceeded to try and grab the swordsman.

Back with Chopper, he had already finished his notes. He was waiting for Zoro to come back, having saw him go to the vending machine as he had finally left the room. Chopper only looked away from Zoro for a second, and when he looked back, the swordsman wasn't near the vending machine anymore. Chopper waited patiently for his brother figure to come back, but was getting nervous.

"I don't wanna walk alone in this school, where did Zoro go?" Chopper thought aloud. He looked around the hallway hoping to spot him, but failed.

"Wait don't tell me…" Chopper now thought, "He got lost even though he was down the hallway!" Chopper shouted. With most people that would be ridiculous, but Zoro was a special case. He would go left after someone had told him to go right. It was very possible (and was right) that the swordsman had yet again gotten lost.

Chopper slumped in anguish, knowing that his theory was probably true. The best thing he could do is find his way to Luffy and the others, who were probably in that newspaper room now. He trekked down the stairs to the next floor, but suddenly remembered that he didn't know where the club room was. When Luffy had taken him there, the reindeer was practically being dragged along, so he hadn't gotten a good look at the area before.

"What am I gonna do now?"

"Well well, look what we have here guys, the new kid!"

Chopper looked to find five students walking toward him. The leader was holding some sort of small book in his hand turning the pages. Chopper felt a malicious aura coming from them and backed away a little.

"You may be new here, but I'm sure you heard the rules of true forms. You're supposed to be in your human form on campus!" The supposed leader shouted, making Chopper flinch.

"B-but I have permission to-

"What makes you so special that you're allowed to be in your true form? Who cares if you've got permission, you're still breaking the rules!" the leader said cutting him off. Chopper gulped in fear, backing away more but the group of boys still pursuing him.

"The thing to, what kind of monster are you? I've never seen some little fury thing like you before, it's kind of disgusting." The leader spat again, this time hitting Chopper in the heart. He never liked being called a monster, but here at a school for monsters, to be considered different HERE was definitely strange.

Hey boss, lets teach him a lesson, for thinking he's above our rules." One of the henchmen suggested, making the reindeer gasp in fear, especially when the leader grew a vicious smile on.

"Wait, but I don't-

"Good idea, let's show him what happens to those who defy our rules!" the leader said now launching his clawed hand at Chopper. Chopper put up his arms in defense, but was surprised when he didn't feel a strike. Suddenly a metal hitting surface sound came, and the reindeer looked out. He found the boys had fallen to the ground with giant water pans on their heads.

"Don't touch Chopper, he's my new friend desu!" Yukari shouted, revealing herself and holding her wand. Chopper smiled happily at her and ran to her side.

"Thanks a lot! You're Yukari, right?" The reindeer said, with the witch nodding happily. The boys recovered and stood up full of anger.

"Damn it, you again! I've been waiting for a chance to get you alone and get revenge!" the boss shouted pointing at Yukari, making Chopper turn to her in question.

"You know these guys?"

"Yeah, they used to bully me, but let's talk after we run desu!" Yukari said grabbing Choppers arm and dragging him along as she ran. The boys followed quickly after, and were gaining on them.

"Wait, I have an idea!" Chopper said, getting Yukari to let go of him. He suddenly changed into his full reindeer form, surprising the witch and the bullies as he lifted her up onto his back with his head. He suddenly dashed with great speed, easily leaving the group of thugs in the dust. The two decided to go onto the roof for a bit, just until the coast was clear.

"How did you do that, that was amazing Chopper-kun!" The witch said happily hugging the reindeer, who pushed away and did his happy dance.

"Stupid, don't think you can make me happy by saying those things!"

Yukari chuckled as he continued to dance. When he was done, he took a seat next to her, looking over the railing.

"Oh yeah, so you know those guys right? They bullied you before?" Chopper asked. The witch nodded in response.

"Before I met Moka-san and the others, I used to cause a lot of trouble desu." Yukari said thoughtfully, not looking at the reindeer as she talked. He listened to her curiously, keeping his eyes on her.

"I used to be really lonely during then. I would play pranks, just so people would pay attention to me. I'm a witch, and so a lot of monsters hate me desu."

"Eh, monsters discriminate against witches? Why?" Chopper asked very surprised by this.

"It's because out of all monsters, witches have the closest relation to humans." She said. She seemed a little sullen at first but then smiled greatly.

"But I don't care about that now. After I met Moka-san, Zoro-nii and the others, I'm not alone anymore!" She said quite happily. Chopper widened his eyes in understanding. In a way, this girl was just like him. His own race of reindeer cast him out because he was different. She had been looked down upon by other monsters, supposedly her people, because of her heritage. They also had people who had saved them. Chopper had Luffy, and she had Moka and the others. This put a smile on his face.

"It's nice to have friends!" Chopper said with a large cute smile of his own. The two laughed together for a bit.

"You know, Luffy-kun was also one of the people who made me realize I'm not alone. He fought for me, even though he barely met me." She said happily. Chopper looked at her and understanding, and began to chuckle now, with Yukari turning to him in question.

"What is it?"

"Luffy would do that, because he did the exact same for me too!" Chopper said happily. She tilted her head in question, quite surprised.

"I was kicked out of my own race because I was different, and humans hated me because I was a monster. Only two other people cared for me, but one of them… died and the other was… really harsh at times." He said with a slight shudder as he thought of doctor Kureha's intense discipline. Yukari wondered why he stopped, but he shook it off and continued.

"They taught me how to be a doctor and-

"You're a doctor?" Yukari shouted in surprise, with Chopper nodding happily in response.

"But even with them I was alone. After a while, I was used to it, and didn't care for humans at all. But then I met Luffy. He didn't care about me being different, and asked me to join his nakama. Doctor Kureha was mad, and almost killed me for leaving her but… I know she still loves me." He said with a hint of a smile.

"You know, me and you are really alike, Chopper-kun. I'm glad you came to Yokai Academy." Yukari said happily.

"I'm glad Luffy introduced me to everyone, you're all really nice!" Chopper returned.

Chopper and Yukari now began to talk about pretty much everything. Chopper would tell her of stories of the Straw Hats adventures, although safely changing details not to reveal too much. Yukari talked about some of the pranks she had pulled on many other students before, making the two laugh. The two lost track of time, although they didn't really care. Finally they saw the sunset, entranced by it's beauty as it went away.

"Wow, I didn't realize we were here for so long, let's go find everyone." Yukari said stretching her arms while Chopper yawned a bit and nodded. The two rose to get up, but Chopper froze suddenly.

"What's wrong Chopper-kun?"

"Oh no its-

"Well well, look who we have here."

In front of them was the student body of Yukari's class, the bullies from earlier. Yukari sweated a bit, but Chopper got in front of her protectively.

"Oh the little fur ball is trying to be brave huh?" The leader said while his lackey's cackled heinously. The Three began to transform into their lizard forms, scarring the reindeer.

"What kind of monsters are they?"

"Lizard men, be careful!" Yukari replied.

"All right fur ball let's start with you!" The leader said charging. Chopper stood firm in his path.

"Chopper-kun, run!"

"I'll fight for my nakama, no matter what!"

Heavy Point!

Suddenly Chopper changed into his larger form, making the boss stop in his tracks, and all present dropping their jaws.

"Wh-what the- is this his true form?"

"I won't let you touch Yukari!" Chopper roared, now punching the leader hard in the jaw and straight into his men. The others shuddered now seeing his strength. The leader recovered now, bleeding from the mouth.

"Damn he's strong, but if we jump him together, he'll be helpless!" The leader shouted, jumping at him again with his lackeys now coming at different angles. Chopper ran a cold sweat, but was surprised when Yukari took a step up beside him.

"Don't worry, I'll fight too!" She said determined, both now smiling at each other. She launched a spell at one of them, meaning a water pan, while Chopper punched the second lackey. But while they fought, the leader jump at Yukari to bite her. Only inches away, Chopper jumped in front of her, letting the teeth latch into his shoulder while he cringed in pain.

"Chopper-kun!"

"I'll teach you for messing with me, then the little witch! Now men, jump him!" The others never came, but the sound of metal swiping was heard.

"Oi, what the hell do you think you're doing to my nakama."

The three looked back and saw Zoro, his sword drawn and the other two lizards at his feet knocked out. Chopper and Yukari smiled while the leader sweated greatly, but forgot that he was still on Chopper's shoulder. The reindeer unlatched him and punched him hard across the roof top, knocking him to Zoro's feet. The three looked up to a deadly expression.

"If I find you guys bothering these two again, I'll cut you all into a meal… understand!" Zoro warned them harshly, scaring them into despair.

"We understand!"

"Good." Zoro said now raising Shuusui into the air, making them shriek in fear.

"Now get outta here!"

36 Pound Cannon!

The air blade sent the three flying off the roof, the lizards crying in despair after hitting the ground.

"That was a bit too much, don't you think?" Chopper said with a sweat drop.

"Shut up." Zoro said while walking over to them. The two ran to him, Chopper now shrunk down to his regular size. As the two got close, they noticed that Zoro's shirt was ripped up, and there were a few slight scratch marks on him.

"Zoro what happened to you, did the lizard guys jump you too?" Chopper said looking at him.

"No it wasn't them it was-

He stopped suddenly, his expression now becoming dreaded. He turned away suddenly.

"Just forget it, lets go." He said walking ahead of the two now. Chopper and Yukari looked at each other confused now, but shrugged it off and followed after him.

"Thank you Chopper-kun, for earlier. You were so brave protecting me like that." Yukari said happily hugging him.

"It's ok. That's what friends do right?" He said happily, and the two smiled greatly at each other as they walked on behind the swordsman.

Back at Ms. Kiriko's class, things had been destroyed, cut in half and thrown everywhere. The teacher sat in a chair with a disappointed look on her face.

"Dang, and I was so close to getting him!" She shouted in despair and slumped down.
