A/N: I'm back! But I won't be posting chapters as much. I have a job now and it takes up most of my time. I ended up buying my own laptop by the way and it's already showing the blue screen of death here and there. Soooo I have to send it to get it fixed. x.x I was going to do a Christmas Special, but my boyfriend talked me out of it. He told me to wait until Brook was in the story. I've also been sketching out how Lilith will look after the time-skip and I think you guys will like her new look when the time comes. (I like doing stuff ahead of time)

Also, I have to say thank you to all of you who were waiting and those who added me to their favorite and watches. I loved reading the reviews on my iPod while I was gone. I hope all of you enjoy this long awaited chapter.

Disclaimer: I do not own One Piece, its characters or the original plot. I do however, own Lilith and this story. Plus, the bf is my editor.

Chapter 18

The Fallen King Bull!

Lilith would have had to deal with one, if it weren't for Zoro. He had hit the man with one of his blades and the marine was already falling off the ride. "Th-thank... you." Lilith announced to the green haired man, clearly having trouble with thanking him. He just grunted.

"He's our captain, his will is strong! Get us to Luffy on the Main Island, King Bull!" Sanji directed only for the King Bull to neigh in response as he continued to plow through the government men. "Don't let the pirates proceed any farther!" A marine ordered as they shot bazookas and normal guns at the King Bulls.

"Kill all of them!" Another marine called out. "Fire! Bring those Marines down!" One of the Franky Family ordered, them shooting back at the marines. Lilith sunk herself further into the seat, not wanting to be hit by the bullets being shot at them. Zoro just blocked one's that were to hit him, a clanging noise being made.

Sanji barely dodged one, as it cut off a piece of his hair, "You bastards!" Sanji kicked the side of the seats, causing the board to come loose and hit it's mark. Which were three marines shooting at them on a balcony. Chopper was having a conversation with the King Bull, nodding his head every now and again, telling him to continue.

A smile formed on his face as he turned to his crew mates, "I understand!" Chopper then went on, telling them of the story of the two King Bulls, "And then, just when they were about to die in the stomach of a gigantic Sea King, the two brothers, Sodom and Gomorrah, were rescued by the Franky Family and were told this: We're full now, so we won't eat you! From that time on, they swore loyalty to their savior Franky!"

Sanji disagreed with the story, "No, that's not it... It's just a story about them being in the stomach of a Sea King the Franky Family just happened to be eating." Nami agreed with a statement, "Probably." Sanji just shrugged, "Mah, it's okay..." He looked up at the King Bull, "Could you look in front of you? That's dangerous."

The King Bull went to talking to Chopper again, only for the doctor to translate, "'I will follow Franky for the rest of my life!', he says." Lilith tried to smile, but found it difficult. She needed something for nausea. "He must be quite happy that you can understand what he says." Sanji stated, looking at the happy pre-occupied King Bull. "Hehehaha" Chopper giggled with the agreeing neigh of the Bull.

The yellow King Bull started to talk to Chopper again, "'By the way, the masked guy who was with you didn't come aboard, is that okay?', he says." Chopper relayed to the others. "Eh?!" Lilith could hear Nami screech and the two human males grunt in agitation. She could hear the doctor, questioning what was wrong and then having it click, "Eeeeeahhhh! Sa-sogeking is nowhere to be seen!" Chopper panicked, flailing his arms in the air.

"Why, why?!" The navigator cried. "That guy... Did he fall off?" Zoro grumbled. "No! Now that you mention it, he's not been here from the start!" The little human reindeer cried. "Mah, don't tell me he ran away..." Sanji sighed, annoyed. Snot spilled from Choppers nose as he panicked, "Kyaha! What should we do?!"

Zoro took one of his swords and plunged it into the wooden floor on the King Bull's saddle. The noise shut the little doctor up. "Anyway we can't go back for the ones who didn't come aboard now. He'll manage to do something by himself." The green haired swordsman explained. "But this is an island covered in soldiers!" Nami retorted, seriously disbelieving that Usopp could do anything with the current status of the island.

The navigator continued with her rant, "He's no Luffy and if we leave him alone, his life will..." She was cut off by Zoro, "On our journey across the islands, all of us became stronger without even noticing. He too has overcome death on every island we passed by. Someone who would die from a little brawl... We don't have anyone like that in our crew."

Lilith had to agree with the green haired swordsman. She'd seen some strengths and weaknesses from everyone since she joined. They were all something else. Poor little Chopper, however, was confused, "Every time? Our crew? What are you saying, Zoro?! Sogeking was asked by Usopp to help us save Robin... and then he came to help us!" Sanji went along with the doctor's naiveté, "He is..." Sanji paused, thinking of a way to describe Sogeking, "An invincible hero, right?"

Chopper stopped to think about it, his eyes turning bold as he faced back to the front of the King Bull. "That's right!" His voice was no longer wavering or concerned, but determined, "If it's Justice's Superhero, Sogeking, then... he'll certainly live!"

Everything was going fine as the yellow King Bull kept it's pace towards the Courthouse. "Hey! We're almost at the Courthouse!" Zoro announced, causing Lilith to pick up her head to look. She was tired of being on this sea creature, even though she liked him.

A whizzing sound pierced the air as a bomb hit the King Bull they were currently on. Everyone's eyes widened as he made a wretched sound of pain"Damn! King Bull!" Sanji yelled, his cigarette flying from his mouth. Blood gushed from the sea creatures wound.

"Sodom!" The Franky Family called, just as in much shock as the Straw Hats were. He was wailing in pain, keeping his neck as it was when the bomb hit him "Sodom! This is terrible! We must treat him immediately!" Chopper cried, wanting nothing more than to help his new friend.

The Franky Family made their way over on Gomorrah. "Sodom, hang on! Don't fall yet!" They cried, wanting to get the crew to the Courthouse. The purple striped King Bull was fast. "Guys, hurry over to this side! Don't just stand there!"The family waited for the crew to jump on."Sodom is done for!" They continued,

"That mortar got his heart! Hurry before he collapses! If you don't move forward, who's gonna do it in your place?!"

Sodom cried to the sky, twisting his neck so he could look at the crew on his back. He was looking at one in particular and told the little reindeer something. Chopper began to cry, "He says, 'go!'" Sodom nuzzled Gomorrah in a farewell.

Lilith felt herself being lifted up and looked up only to blush. Zoro had grabbed her from the waist and jumped over to the other King Bull, the rest of the crew following. As soon as the two landed, the green haired man dropped her. She glared at him, and watched the yellow King Bull.

Sodom made one last cry as he fell away from them and landing on a few running away Marines. Everyone of them were sad about Sodom, but they couldn't stay. "Oi..." Zoro turned, moving to the front of the seats. Lilith turned too, but she headed to the back of the seats with the giant frog, Chopper, and Nami.

"Let's go, Gomorrah!" The Franky Family cheered as the purple King Bull continued its trek to the Courthouse. The gun fire didn't seem to hurt the big King Bull. "They're here! Aim well! We have to slow them down!" The Marines called. Lilith tried to not focus on anything going on around her, but she couldn't help but feel bad for Chopper.

"It's a mortar! Dodge it Gomorrah!" The King Bull lowered his head just in time as the bomb flew past him. "This central road was a bad idea! They had organized to ambush us! We're changing direction!" The white haired girl felt Gomorrah turn and made his way to a less crowded area of the city.

"Sodom..." The reindeer cried, looking at his fallen friend behind them. He turned, looking at the back of the seat in front of him. Lilith frowned, picking him up and putting him in her lap. "Chopper..." Nami felt the same sympathy for him. Chopper didn't look up as he cried into her shirt. Closing her eyes, Lilith tried to imagine she wasn't high up so she could continue to comfort the youngest of the crew.

"Purupurupurupurupuru" Something began to ring, "Ah? The baby Den-Den Mushi?" Nami questioned, pulling her jacket from herself as a baby Den-Den came out. "Yes? Who is it?" She asked the caller. "It's us." The hoarse voice of Kokoro called back through the Den-Den. "It's Kokoro baa-san!" One of the many men on the King Bull announced.

"What do you want?" Another asked, curiously. "Gnahahaha! Looks like you're still alive. Where are you now?" The old lady laughed and questioned them."We're approaching the Courthouse. Why do you ask?" Nami answered and questioned back. "That's just perfect. There's something I forgot to tell you." She simply told Nami.

"Something you forgot to tell us?" Nami asked and the old woman continued.

"You must be busy now, so I'll tell you already. Listen well." She paused, only to continue, "On Paulie's map, there wasn't any road from the courthouse to the Judiciary Tower, right?" She inquired. "That's right, it's been bothering me." The cook piped up answering truthfully.

"Look at the Courthouse, there's a tower on either side." The old woman stated. "Yeah, there is." Nami confirmed it. "In both the left and right tower, at the top floor of each one of them, you should find a lever. If you pull those, a drawbridge should lower between the Courthouse and the Judiciary Tower."

"Baa-san! Why do you know about this?" One of the men examined. "A long time ago, I was here with Tom repairing the bridge. That stupid ungrateful

government!" She screamed the last part, surprising most of the crew. "Don't pass your anger onto me." The same man complained, covering his ears.

"And Chimney wants to talk too." Kokoro told them as the little girl's voice came through the Den-Den. "Hello! Pirate neechan, can you hear me?" She showed curiosity. "Wah! What is it, Chimney?" Nami interrogated. "You know, I saw the rubber pirate niichan on the Courthouse's roof." Lilith's eyes snapped open and blinked. He was all the way...up there?

"Naw! Naw!" The bunny agreed through the call. "For real? Luffy is there?" The navigator questioned, surprised. "And then, I also saw rocks crumbling on the roof, so it seems like they're getting kinda wild!" Chimney finished telling the orange haired pirate as she gratefully replied. "On the roof. Understood, thanks!"

"Pirate girl, don't hand up the Den-Den Mushi yet. We'll be able to know the situation from where we are." Kokoro's voice came back through the speaker."Roger! That's it." Nami looked up at everyone. "With this, our goal is decided!" Zoro announced. "Geru!" The frog agreed. "Yah!" The rest of the people cheered, Lilith quietly for she was less enthusiastic about this.

"Aright, you guys head directly towards the Courthouse and unite with Straw Hat!" Zambai explained to Zoro and the rest of the Straw Hat crew. Zoro nodded, "Understood." The other's nodded as well as Lilith.

"We'll split into two groups and lower that drawbridge!" Zambai ordered the Franky Family. "We'll leave this to you Gomorrah! Get us to the Courthouse!" He called out to the big King Bull. Out of all the planning, none of them seemed to notice the oncoming attack as the King Bull got hit in the neck and into a building.

"Gomorrah!" The family called, full of panic. Lilith held onto the seat and Chopper, both with tears falling from their eyes from panic. Nami's eyes teared up as well, as Lilith grabbed the orange haired navigator by the arm. "Shit! Who the hell is he?" The purple haired Franky Family man questioned, looking at the perpetrator.

Zoro got ready to fight, getting into a stance with his katanas. Lilith would've slid from the King Bull's back, but he was being surrounded and quite fast. "It won't go that well. Pieces of trash." The guy who hit Gomorrah spoke. Lilith's eye twitched, who was he to call them pieces of trash? If anything that was most of the government. They trampled on anything that would help the good people.

"We beat the second one!" The marines cheered below. "Those pirates have lost their legs now!" Someone called out with the cheering. "Surround them and stop them!" Another called as they did just that. "To all of Enies Lobby's military personnel! At the center of the Southeast Block, D Block, we have stopped the pirate's Kind Bulls! All hands converge towards that place, and completely encircle the D Block! I repeat! All military personnel, completely encircle the D Block!" The announcement could be heard all over the small island from the speaker Den-Den.

"The soldiers we passed by are catching up. This is bad." Sanji scowled, glancing behind them to see dust flying with Marines running towards them. "There are a lot coming from the front and the sides!" Zambai glowered as well. Lilith bit her lip. She could go down there, but what if they caught her. They were in a tight pickle.

"They're aiming mortar cannons at us too!" The twins cried, gaining the attention from the rest of the crew. "AAAAAHHHHH! This is terrible! There are thousands of them! If we get surrounded in a place like this, we'll be done for!" Chopper panicked in the white haired blacksmith's arms. She knew this as well and wondered what to do. Her mind had wandered from her fears of heights and to that of their predicament.

A piece of the Courthouse crumbled and fell, revealing the hair horned man from the train. She glared at him. "Oi, cook!" Zoro called back to Sanji as those two noticed as well. "Yeah, I saw. Luffy is already fighting with the CP9." Chopper and Nami gasped, not noticing at all, "Heh!"

"I-is that true? Damn, we were too late! But we're completely surrounded, how are we gonna get out of this? Because of some guy's steel ball, Gomorrah can't move anymore!" Zambai was trying to plot a plan, only to be interrupted by the government officials. "Fire! Shoot down all the pirates from the monster!"

Lilith stood, ready to get off this giant sea creature. "There's only one way remaining!" The green haired pirate announced, the cook agreeing, "Yeah, we're gonna have to go through them to the Courthouse!"

Nami stood her ground as well, "We can't do otherwise." The family apparently agreed with them as they too stood, "Alright! Let's go guys!" They cheered, as they got their weapons ready and loaded."Yah!"

"WAIT! DON'T GET OFF, EVERYBODY!" Chopper called from his place in Lilith's arms. "Chopper?" She questioned him, tilting her head to the side confused. "HOLD ON TIGHT!" He continued, tears welling behind his shut eyes.

Gomorrah got up, making a battle cry, "Gomorrah is... Gomorrah is saying this!" The little reindeer delivered the message. "That monster!" One of the Marines scowled. "It's still alive!" Another called, just noticing. "Fire! We have to stop it with mortars!" One of the higher ups commanded.

"Fight back, we have to cover Gomorrah!" The family began firing back at the Marines and Government officials. "GO, GOMORRAH!" Everyone cheered as they fought the onslaught of the government.
