The tension between Zoro and Skie had subsided. Well, at least the tension from Skie. She sort of seemed to forget about it. Zoro was still grumpy though, of course.

They were docked at an island, to restock their food supply and so Nami could get a new wardrobe.

Skie wandered off by herself into the very large city. The tall buildings stretching out into the distance.

Skie put her hands in her sweatshirt pockets and walked through the crowds in the street. Several people tried to sell her something, but she just shook her head and kept walking, growing steadily bored by the second.

That is, until she head a familiar voice from an alley. She walked down and turned the corner. She looked down it, seeing one of her bestest pals getting thrown into a large iron cage, filled with several other kids her age.

One of her eye brow's twitched, she knew everyone in there. Not all of them personally…but still!

There was Bibs, Kelly, Tasha, Sarah, Muff N' Z-boots, Thomas, Aimee, Wanako, Krystn, Mr. Thumbsup, Billie, Monkey, Kree, PirateKid, Mei, and Shloop. (tell me in your reviews if I forgot anyone...and you shal appear in the next part!)

Skie cracked her knuckles, getting a little ticked off that all her pals were being shoved into an iron cage. She didn't really think about why, she just thought about how bad she should beat the creeps up.

"AYE!" She roared, stepping into the alley.

One of the guys looked at her, the others were out of sight inside the truck/cart thing. "Ack! It's her!" he said loudly, he looked like a…clown?

"Buggy? What the hell?" Skie said.

Then, stepped out Arlong, Don Krieg, and Kuro.

Her eyes widened. "…Frick." She said, her shoulders drooping.

"Skie!" Yelled Bibs, "Get us out of here!"

"I remember you! The one who got drunk on chocolate milk!" Kelly said, "Hi!"

"Skie's here? That means the rest of the crew's here too right?" said Tasha, "Like Zoro…?" she started drooling.

"Go Skie! Beat 'em up!" Sarah cheered, everyone else started cheering also.

"HELLO!" Skie yelled, pointing at the four guys, "DO YOU KNOW WHO THEY ARE? LUFFY ALMOST DIED FIGHTING HIM ALONE!" She pointed at Arlong, "LUFFY! I'm SKIE, not LUFFY!" Skie snapped.

"…She's right. We're doomed." Said Billie.

"Oh, nice." Thomas rolled his eyes, putting his back against the wall of the cage.

"Anyways." Skie said, "What do you want with my friends?" she growled, seeming to get over her little panic attack.

"They wanna KILL US!" Muff (N' Z-boots) shouted.

"Actually, we were going tie them up at the town central, therefore luring you out."

"WHY?" Aimee sounded irritated.

"Because, she's a straw hat right? We bet she's the weakest one there, so when we get her, which would be easy, she would be bait for the rest of the Straw Hats!" Buggy said, "CURSE LUFFY!" he yelled.

"YEAH!" Kuro, Arlong, and Krieg yelled.

"Dude, she's so gonna kill you." Wanako grinned.

"And why's that?" Kuro asked, the rest of them chuckling at the statement.

"Because, morons, you called her weak. Which will probably remind her of her arch nemesis Derek, and therefore, since she's a total nut, she'll picture you all as Derek's crew and beat the crap outta you." PirateKid laughed.

"She'll beat us up when pigs fly." Arlong said.

"They do, idiot. At least, they do here." Kree said.

"…She's still just a human!" Arlong hissed.

"You dang prejudice fish." Shloop said, "You can't say that, 'cuz Luffy beatcha up."

Arlong crossed his arms and pouted.

Kreig sighed, "This is getting idiotic! I'm awesome! Therefore! I shall be the one to capture…her…?" Krieg looked at Skie with wide eyes.

"Holy –censored-!" Shouted Buggy, hiding behind Krieg.

Kuro and Arlong's jaws were touching the ground, "WHERE'D SHE GET THOSE?" they both yelled at the same time.

"COOOL!" Everyone in the cage yelled in unison.

"Kill 'em Skie!" Krystn said.

Skie had a black jacket, looking exactly like a female version of Neo from Matrix, when they're entering the building to save Morph.

She had a machine gun in each hand and her eyes had angry anime fire in them. "Prepare to be annihilated!" she said in an Arnold voice.

She pulled the triggers and held them down, countless bullet shells falling to her feet. Krieg put his bullet proof new armor out in front of him, Kuro vanished, Buggy was in pieces (literally) and Arlong was behind Krieg.

Kuro reappeared behind Skie and put one of his cat claws at her neck.

"Skie! Look out!" several of them yelled.

"BACK FIEND!" Skie threw her head back, smacking Kuro in the nose, blood spraying out of his nose as he fell onto his back, "OW!" he yelled.

"WHO'S THE WEAK HUMAN? I'LL KILL YOU DEREK!" Skie ran forward, dropping the machine guns. "Muff! Quick, your bag!" Skie yelled.

Muff nodded, throwing her backpack through the bars, Skie caught it, and pulled out a pair of spiked brass knuckles she tossed the bag back to the cage, Monkey catching it and giving it back to Muff.

Skie was no where near as strong as Luffy, but the spiky brass knuckles made up for that.

She roared, swinging her fist directly at Krieg's face.

"GAH!" Kreig ducked, and Skie hammered Arlong in the nose, bending it. (it was easy to break 'cuz Luffy already broke it)

"Not again!" Arlong said as he flew backwards. He slammed into a brick wall, but got up a second later, looking ticked off as he readjusted his nose.

Skie was trying to hit Kuro, who kept dodging her.

"You're wearing yourself out!" Mr. Thumbsup yelled.

"Slow down!" Krystn said.

Skie swung at Kuro, who once again disappeared and she ended up hitting the brick wall behind him, leaving a crumbling dent.

Skie still had the anime angry fire in her eyes, but was panting. "I'm…not tired…" she said, then went to punch Kuro but her fist just sort of flopped and swung down. "Gah…" the fire in her eyes vanished and she blanked out, toppling over.

"I told you we were doomed." Billie said.

"Oh hush." Mei sighed.

-O-M-G-

"Well, we're all set to leave. Everyone on board?" Nami asked.

"Where's Skie?" Luffy said, looking around.

"Oh jeez. Not again!" Usopp sighed, "She's still in the town."

"Well then! Off to find Skie-Chan!" Sanji said, jumping back out on deck.

"Hurry up or we'll miss it!" A little boy said, grabbing his little sister's hand and speeding up. "But I don't wanna see a girl die!" the little girl yelled.

Sanji put his leg in front of the boy, stopping him, "What are you talking about?" he asked.

"Four really strong pirates kidnapped a girl and say they're gonna kill her unless the Straw Hats show up!" the boy said, "I don't wanna see her die, I just wanna see the pirates!" and the boy ran off, his sister in tow.

Sanji looked back at his crew, "You don't think…" Sanji started.

"Let's go." Zoro said, and the Straw Hats headed back into the town.

-L-Y-K-E- -O-M-G-

Skie slowly opened her eyes, yawning, "Ah, that was a weird dream." She mumbled, still out of it.

"SKIE! YOU MORON! THIS ISN'T A DREAM!" Bibs screeched in her ear.

"Gah! Bibs! What're you doin' here?" Skie said. Then she looked around.

She was up on a tall large platform. The iron cage next to her. She was lying on her stomach, her head and hands through the holes of a guillotine. She looked up, seeing a large, and very sharp blade twenty feet above her neck. To her left was the cage, to her right were the four famous pirates who captured her.

"When I get outta here, you guys are dead! You hear me? D E D!" she said.

"You're in a guillotine Skie. It's probably best not to aggravate them." Said Thomas.

"Crap. I'm about to have my head chopped off. And my hands! How can I draw stuff without my hands!" Skie just started panicking.

"Don't worry Skie! Zoro'll come and save ya!" Kelly said.

"WHY? He hates meh." Skie sounded calm again.

"Because! He likes ya!" Krystn said.

Skie blushed, "Does not!" she yelled. "He tried to throw me overboard!"

"He's just hiding his feelings." Aimee said.

Mr. Thumbsup and Thomas looked at each other, pretending to gag.

Billie sighed, "I'm bored."

"BORED?" Muff yelled.

"MY HEAD HURTS!" Skie yelled.

"It won't for long." Kuro said.

"Oooh! Creepy! Get away from me, cat-boy." Skie said.

Kuro narrowed his eyes but continued searching the crowd for the Straw Hats with his three partners.

Monkey, Kree, Mei, and Wanako were playing rock paper scissors. "Ooh! Let me play!" Skie said.

"Alright." They alls aid.

"Rock, Paper, Scissors!"

Kree got paper

Mei got Rock

Wanako got Rock

Skie got Scissors.

"HA!" Kree said, "Paper beats rock!"

"But scissors beats paper!" Skie grinned.

"And rock beats scissors!" Mei and Wanako said.

"Crap! I lose." Skie sighed.

Mei and Wanako started again.

Mei got Rock

Wanako got Rock

"Pick a different one!" Krystn said.

They were about to start again when a voice was heard from across the large city central (picture Rouge Town)

"SKIE!" roared Luffy, charging through the crowd, the rest of the Straw Hat pirates by his side.

"Shall we do it?" Kuro asked.

"Sure! Off with her head!" Buggy said.

"Alright, Queen of Hearts!" Skie yelled angrily, "I dare you!"

"Skie! You MORON!" Bibs said.

"Stop TAUNTING THEM!" PirateKid tried kicking her though the bars, but her leg wasn't long enough.

"Dare accepted!" Arlong grinned and pulled a lever, and the blade fell…

"SKIIIE!" Everyone shrieked.

She closed her eyes tightly, waiting to feel the sharp blade…but didn't.

She looked up, seeing why she wasn't dead yet.

And she saw…
