Chapter 14:

Yuki woke up with a sharp pain in her stomach. "Ouch." She muttered clenching her stomach; it had been sloppily bandaged and carelessly taken care of. "Where am I?" She looked around. "Déjà vu." She thought to herself and shook away her thoughts trying to remember what happened to her last. Memories of her meeting her father and him injuring her went through her mind. "Damn it." Yuki cursed. She slowly got up ignoring the pain and noticed she was in a really tiny room with only the one bed she was on. Trying to get up from the bed, she was held down by something. Yuki glared at her leg and noticed that there were shackles tied to her ankle. Sighing, she went back and laid down. "So now what? Am I just going to stay here?" She shook her head. "I don't want to be in this crew, I want to go back to Luffy and everyone else. But how?" She was completely shackled to the bed and she didn't even have her swords with her. "I never even got to use them ever since I came to the crew!" She complained to herself.

*knock knock* Yuki cocked her head towards the door. "What?" She spat. Someone turned the doorknob and came in. It was a boy who looked two years younger than her; he had long black hair tied in a pony tail, and wore a dirty white shirt, brown pants and black weary boots.

"You're awake then." He smirked, his yellow teeth showing. "Capt'n wants you on the deck." He came over with a key and took away the chains from her leg. "Don't try anythin' though. Capt'n could kill you in an instant if you try to run away." The boy warned. "The name's Sai by the way."

Yuki glared at the boy. "I could care less what your name is and I have no thoughts on joining your crew either." Yuki snapped while Sai chuckled in amusement.

"Of course you don't, but that'll change in due time. Don' worry." He smiled innocently. Yuki scoffed and looked to the side. "I don't have time for this."

Sai took the girls hand and dragged her out of the room. "Let me go damn it!" Yuki struggled. "I don't want to be in this damn crew! I'm already a member of the straw hats!"

"The straw hats huh?" A new voice spoke out. Yuki looked in the direction of the unfamiliar voice and saw a man in his 40's or 50's smirking evilly at her. "That rookie group has been quite infamous compared to other crews."

"Yeah what about it?" Yuki snapped and the man frowned. Sai hit her in the head and she screamed a "hey!"

"That's the capt'n stupid! If you talk back to him your dead!" Yuki scoffed at looked at the captain.

"I don't give a fuck if he's the captain or not! He's not my captain and he won't ever be!" Yuki stated firmly; she was completely serious. Surprisingly all the captain did was laugh disgustingly.

"You seem to misunderstanding something, missy." He smirked. "I brought you here out of force, it's not something you could just refuse so easily. I need your power and since you're the only successor left from Azuma here (the dad's name) I have no choice. I wouldn't prefer a woman since they're really weak anyway, but since I have no choice…" He kept on talking and Yuki tuned him out. "The only one left as his successor? What about-? No, maybe they thing he's dead." Yuki looked around the ship and saw many dirty men guarding all around. "Damn." She said under her breathe. "It's not going to be easy getting away."

"Hey you brat! Listen to captain when he's talking!" A familiar voice punched her in the stomach, where her wound was, and she flew to the other side of the ship coughing out blood. She looked up and saw her father standing a few feet away, his fist up. "Don't get too cocky now!" He spat.

Yuki didn't say anything but glanced behind her. She was at the corner of the ship, meaning she could jump overboard and swim away. She clenched her fists and took in a huge breathe. The men looking at her confused, she jumped.

/(ºoº)\

"I can see Going Merry!" Luffy exclaimed to Robin, Nami and Chopper. He grinned to see his ship waiting there, "I hope Sanji's on there! I'm hungry!" He complained.

Nami sighed at his behavior and Robin smiled. Chopper running next to them spotted something green next to the ship. He put his hoof above his eye and squinting he saw Zoro laying on the ground.

"Hey guys! I think Zoro got really tired and fell asleep on the floor instead of the ship!" Chopper chuckled.

"Really? That idiot!" Nami shook her head. "Though I'm not surprised." Robin nodded her head in agreement. "It's about time that happened to Mr. Bashido."

Luffy did the same as Chopper and put his hand over his eyes. "Hahahah! That idiot!" Narrowing his eyes he saw red… paint? "I think he's into painting too! There's red paint surrounding him too! Hahahah! He fell asleep while painting!" Luffy laughed at the so called carelessness of his first mate.

"PAINT?" Chopper and Nami shouted simultaneously. They all squinted their eyes and gasped. "That's not paint!" Chopper cried, running even faster and went to his green-haired friend.

"Zoro! What happened!" Seeing that Zoro was unconscious, Chopper turned to his human form and picked him up. He jumped onto Going Merry and took him to the ship's infirmary.

"Eh? Did something happen?" Luffy stopped running and asked the navigator and archaeologist.

"Apparantly so, Mr. Captain." Robin answered.

"Damn that idiot! How'd he get injured like that?" Nami asked concerned.

"WHAT? Zoro got hurt? How do you know?" Luffy asked shocked.

Nami sighed. "HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW? That wasn't paint you saw! That was blood, Luffy!" Luffy's jaw-dropped.

"ZOOOROOO!" He jumped onto the ship and ran towards the infirmary. "What happened, Zoro?" He shook the swordsman continuously.

"Luffy! Stop it! I need to treat his wounds! When he wakes up I'll tell you!" Chopper pushed away the crazy Captain and closed the door.

"Aw man." Luffy pouted.

"Luffy, you idiot!" Nami hit him on the head. "You just don't do that to a patient!" She scolded him like a nagging mother.

"Subi ma seeebn." (Sumi ma sen: I'm sorry) Luffy told her.

An hour had passed and Chopper came running out of the door. "Zoro's up!" He exclaimed.

\(ºvº)/

Yuki had jumped.

Though she didn't have a devils fruit or anything, it was still dangerous to swim in her condition. She panted heavily; the wound in her stomach opened up and she was bleeding fatally. "Damn!" She moved her arms ignoring the pain. Suddenly she began to float up. "Wh-wh-what the hell?" She was above the ocean and slowly got pulled back to the ship. With a thump, she landed on her rear. "Ow." She whispered. Looking around she saw the same men laughing at her foolishness, the captain and her father did the same.

"You thought you could escape that easily?" The captain chuckled. "You're quite stupid y'know? I wouldn't let my new crewmate go away so easily." He mocked her.

"I never agreed to be your crewmember in the first place." Yuki snapped.

"Oh? Is that so? Well in this ship… what I say goes." The captain got up and walked towards the blacksmith. He grabbed her by her wet hair. "And I say that you're going to stay here and learn that damn good power and put it to some good use." He smirked pulling on her hair even more so that they were face to face.

Yuki glared at the man and spat on his face. "Like hell I would." She smiled.

He immediately dropped her, face first, to the floor and stepped on her head. "YOU DAMN BRAT!" The captain shouted wiping his face with disgust. "Don't get so damn cocky! KNOW YOUR DAMN PLACE. I HAVE FULL CONTROL OVER YOU." He calmed down a bit. "I could kill you in a second. Hey, boys." He motioned to his crew. "Let's show this girl we mean business."

\(º_º)/

Nami, Robin, Chopper and Luffy looked at the swordsman with shock. "H-Hey what are you talking about Zoro?" Nami shouted. "Yuki's been kidnapped?" Chopper added while Robin sweat-dropped.

Luffy stared at his first mate. "Yeah… this guy said he was her father or something and gave me these damn injuries and took her." Zoro said humiliated. Luffy angrily grabbed Zoro by the top of his shirt.

"Why didn't you save her?" He shouted angrily. Everyone looked at their captain in surprise; they never saw him like this before. His eyes showed pure anger and he was yelling at his own nakama. Zoro didn't say anything.

"L-Luffy! He couldn't! The man… whoever he was… poisoned Zoro very badly! It's amazing how he even lived until now…" Chopper tried to defend his friend.

"Damn it!" Luffy let go of Zoro. "Her father? WHAT THE FUCK?" Luffy knocked down some supplies on the table.

"H-Hey Luffy? What's wrong?" Nami asked nervously.

"Yuki…. Her father… No I don't even want to call him that… He… He was a devil." Luffy simply stated.

"Devil?" Nami asked surprised. Luffy didn't say anything and walked out of the infirmary.

"Let's go. We're going to look for her." He ordered. The rest nodded their heads not saying a word and went to their posts.

"But we're missing-" Chopper began but was interrupted.

"NAMI-SWAAN~ ROBIN-CHWAAAN!" "Luffy! Chopper!" Two voices came their way, Usopp and Sanji. "We're here!" They grinned, not knowing the situation at all.

TO BE….. CONTINUED :D Haha I LOVE cliffhangers… ;) Until next time guys!
