New Year's Special

"I know you touched my sword!"

"Shut up, I haven't been near those plastic knives!"

"What did you just say?!"

"Are you deaf marimo? I said I didn't go near them!"

"I'm not stupid you shit cook!"

The Straw Hats had been sailing idly in the sea for a while, and Sanji and Zoro had been bickering like no tomorrow. "Does this usually happen?" Chopper blinked at the scene in front of them. Kya sighed and squeezed the little reindeer lightly in her arms; she had become increasingly fond of him as of late. "They fight, but never like this."

"Listen up!" Nami shouted, hitting both boys on the back of the head. "New Year's Eve is today, and we are all going to make resolutions." She insisted, putting a fist into the palm of her hand. "What do you mean resolutions?" Luffy raised an eyebrow at her as he sat against the mast. "Oh Nami-swan, you're so smart and beautiful!" Sanji cooed, a large lump rising from his head as he spun around the navigator. "Alright here's what we're going to do." She ignored him. "Write down a list of things you want to change about yourself on paper and hand them to me!"

"This is lame. I'm going to get an apple." Kya set Chopper down at her feet and walked off. "You should write down your attitude!" Nami muttered, putting her hands on her hips. "You're one to talk dear Nami." The assassin waved her off as she walked into a kitchen.

Sitting on the table was an apple held in a handmade of paper. She frowned, knowing exactly who it was. Once the apple was removed, a bigger piece of paper was revealed. 'An apple a day keeps the doctor away.' She frowned, holding the red fruit in her hand as the papers dispersed. "What a stupid shit." She muttered, taking a bite.

"Do you ever shut up?"

"I wasn't even talking to you!"

"You're irritating."

"Do you wanna fight?!"

'Do they ever stop?' Kya thought to herself as Sanji and Zoro walked into the kitchen; a headache was already beginning to brew in her. "Oh my beautiful Kya-chwan is in here!~" Sanji spun over to her as she munched on the apple. "I thought we were out of apples though…" Zoro pointed out. "You were complaining about that last nite." She shrugged lightly. "I found one today."

"You're annoying her, leave." Sanji demanded, pointing at the door. "Maybe it's you that's annoying!" She sighed, rubbing her temple; the headache was now turning into a migraine. "Don't talk to me like that stupid marimo!" The two boys got in each other's faces. "Don't be such a shit cook!"

The migraine suddenly converted into an allover pain. Her body was aching, her head was spinning, her legs were shaking, and it hurt to breathe. "You guys…" She said quietly, falling to her knees. Blood spurted from her mouth, and she threw it up all over the floor. "What the hell-" Zoro grabbed her before she could fall over onto the floor. "Go get Chopper!" He yelled as she fell over into his chest, blood dripping from her mouth to the floor. He watched as Sanji ran out the door, screaming for the little reindeer.

"What did you do to Kya?!" Luffy screamed, running in the kitchen before Chopper. "It wasn't even me!" Zoro yelled back, knocking his captain in the head. "Zoro, move Kya-san over to the bed but keep her leaning forward, we don't want her to drown." Chopper pushed a chair up next to his patient's bed.

"Was she eating or drinking anything when you came in?" He asked as he pressed a stethoscope to her back lightly. "Uh, she was eating an apple. She found it apparently." The swordsman explained, holding the small girl awkwardly. "Most likely poison. I've seen something like this before, but we have to hurry. Her breathing is beginning to shallow." The rest of the crew piled into the small room, gasping at the bloody mess. "Did you gut her?!" Nami cried fearfully, earning a glare from Zoro. "It wasn't me!" Luffy pushed himself onto the table. "So if we just give her some meat she'll be fine right?"

"Shut the hell up!"

The pain started in her stomach, moving its way to her throat. Kya sat up and coughed loudly; she could feel something sliding out of her throat as she did so. Flopping down on the bed she sighed and decided to open her eyes. Slowly, the lids fluttered open, only to reveal darkness. She flickered them again, hoping they were only kidding her, but proved the same result. "What the…" She mumbled, sitting up slowly. "What's going on?"

"Oh good! You're awake!"

'Chopper?' She figured the childish voice could only belong to him. "How are you feel?" The doctor asked, his hooves pressing against her chest lightly. She reached up and touched the side of her face slowly and carefully; frowning. "I can't see." She muttered. "Can't see….?" He repeated as a door was opened and shut loudly.

"Oh, she's awake." A gruff voice said as their heavy footsteps clunked over to her bedside. "Don't pull that shit again, pretty freaky princess." She frowned even deeper, swinging her legs off the bed. "Back off Zoro, I can't fucking see alright. Chopper, can I take a shower?" She asked, standing up on shaky legs. "Uhm, yes. Zoro will help you out. But, by you can't see, you mean, you're blind? You can't see anything?" The reindeer chirped bashfully. "Ya, I can't even see my hand in front of my face." She demonstrated until Zoro grabbed her wrist. "Alright princess, let's go." He chuckled as protested being dragged forward and out the door. "Quit complaining; you're biting the hand that feeds." She nearly died as he pulled her down the steps. "You're not even helping me."

After fumbling through the onslaught of questions and cheers of the other crew members, the two finally made it to the bathroom. "How are we going to do this?" She asked, awkwardly rubbing her arm. "Well, uhm…." He mumbled something incoherent afterwards before pulling her inside. He released her wrist and the sound of the water hitting the tub echoed around them. "Just call me when you're done." He said before rushing past her and slamming the door behind him. "Bastard."

The hot water felt nice against her cold skin, washing away all the blood and grim that had accumulated. Running her hands through her hair, she never actually realized how pissed she was. Ron had nearly killed her and she was blind; possibly for a long time. Part of her wanted to cry and the other part just wanted to scream in anger. She leaned forward, pressing her balled up hands against the wet wall. There wasn't a chance in hell that she would let this ruin her.

"Hey, you might want to hurry up." Zoro knocked on the door. "There's a storm heading our way." She sighed heavily, and managed to find the faucet to turn the water off. "Can you get me a towel?" She asked awkwardly, grabbing the shower curtain and holding it over her body while she stuck her head out. He gave a loud grunt before walking in slowly. "Don't get mad at me if I see you naked." He groaned out. "Shut up; just get me a towel and ask Nami to get me some clothes."

After throwing her the towel, he stomped out of there, calling Nam's name. "Baka, leaving me here alone." She grumbled, reaching down for the side of the bathtub so she could get out. After taking ten minutes just to get out of the tub, Nami waltzed in, humming to herself. "Damn that Zoro. What would he have done if you tripped and killed yourself?" She ground out.

"Thank you for getting my clothes. Could you help me put them on?" Kya chewed her lip nervously, grabbing at the scar on her thigh. "Uh, sure. I brought you that blue dress." The ginger informed as Kya turned and dropped the towel just before her butt. "That's fine. So you said a storm is heading our way? Is it bad?" She asked, tying the towel around her waist. "It's pretty strong; we're going to have to find a way around it, which will be difficult." The navigator replied awkwardly; the two had never really had an open conversation like this. She helped pull the dress over her head, helping her situate the strapless piece of fabric over her boobs. Letting the towel drop, she quickly placed her wet hair up in a bun. "Thankfully that wasn't too difficult."

"Hey, Kya what's that?"

Swallowing hard, the assassin pulled the hem of the dress down. "I don't know what you're talking about." She said quickly, earning a snort from the other girl. "Bull, even though you can't see, you know exactly what I'm talking about." Her arms wrapped around her awkwardly. "I don't want to talk about it. Let's get back out there before we die, okay?"

She held onto Nami's wrist as they went down the steps. "Zoro!" The swordsman opened an eye lazily at them from his sleeping position. "What?" He groaned. Nami lifted the assassin's hand up in the air. "She's your responsibility. Take her." She explained loudly. "Thanks for making me such a burden." Kya muttered as a rough hand grabbed her wrist. "You guys are so annoying." A loud smack made it clear the navigator had hit the first mate in the face; and quite hard too.

A loud rumbling in the distance made everyone's blood run cold. "The storm is here!" Nami yelled as everyone scrambled to their positions. "Shit." Zoro growled, looking down at the wrist he held in his hand. "Okay princess," He pushed her over to the railing, wrapping her arms around it. "Hold onto this and don't let go." He told her before running off. "Zoro!" The wind started hitting her face violently as she held on for dear life.

The rain started coming down, first as little drops, then hard pellets. She clenched her eyes shut and curled up against the railing, still holding on. She felt useless and insecure; she wasn't able to help them at all, in fact she had no idea what was going on. The crew was shouting at each other but it all started to run together and sounded more like mumbles.

"Kya-chwan!"

Sanji was at her side, holding her tightly. "That shitty swordsman left you here didn't he?" He growled as she nodded. "That bastard! I'll kill him! Ah, but first, here. Let me help you inside." As he helped her stand to her feet, the Merry crashed into an angry wave. The two of them tripped, tumbling over the railing. Sanji held onto the railing as Kya grabbed onto his waist.

"Sanji-san! Kya-san!"

"Zoro! Luffy! Go help them!"

Unfortunately, the Merry was pushed around roughly by stormy sea, and the water made the railing slippery; the two pirates fell into the dark ocean. "Kya! Sanji!" Luffy screamed, leaning over the railing. Usopp ran over, grabbing his captain and pulling him away. "Luffy stop! We don't need you falling in too!" He cried, holding the seething boy tightly in his arms. "We'll find them!"

'Am I dead?' Kya could feel her body being lifted up as she came back into consciousness. "Sanji?" She asked hoarsely, coughing some water out of her lungs afterwards. The person didn't answer, but it definitely did not feel like Sanji. She slowly opened her eyes, the salt water burning them as she did so. It wasn't pitch black anymore, just extremely blurry; she could make out colors and figures though and this definitely was not Sanji nor was it someone she knew. "Who are you?" She pressed weakly. "Where is Sanji?" Again, the person did not answer.

They walked on through what seemed like a forest until they came to a large mansion. "What is this place?" She demanded as they walked up to the front door. The man proceeded to through her over his shoulder before opening the door and walking in. "Master Zaroff, I have returned." He called with a thick accent.

"Oh my dear Ivan, how great of you to return in time for the party. And I see you have brought me something." The other man's voice did not have such a thick accent, but it was still noticeable. The way he spoke was with more propriety than Ivan and with less of an angry tone. "Set her down, set her down. I must see this lady."

She was forcibly thrown to the grown, but another set of arms caught her before she could fall. He had a cane in his hand, and she could definitely tell he had dark hair and beard. "My, my. What a beauty. What's your name, dear?" Zaroff grazed his hand up and down her arm lightly. "Kya." She answered stiffly, trying to move away from him. His hand grasped around her upper arm tightly and he chuckled. "Oh, so beautiful and young. We shall present you to the town at the party. Ivan, take Ms. Kya to the maids to get her ready. I will meet you back here in an hour and a half." Ivan grabbed her arm and pulled her forward. "Come, we must get you ready?"

"Ready for what?" She tried pulling away but his grip was too strong. "You're too be introduced to the town as Master Zaroff's fiancé." He informed as she tripped up some stairs. "What is your problem, can you not walk by yourself?" He growled as the buzzing of feminine voices reached her ears. "I'm blind dipshit." She spat, pulling her arm out of his hand. Today was just not her day.

The Straw Hats slowly sailed up to a small, but festive looking, island. "Do you think Kya and Sanji are here?!" Luffy shouted as they docked, nearly fling off the boat. "There's no way to know Luffy! We'll check, but don't get your hopes too high." Nami placed a hand on his shoulder. She knew in her heart that they were not here; they were either at the bottom of the sea or in a Sea King's stomach, however morbid that may sound.

"It never hurt to try."

The crew watched as Zoro jumped over the railing and onto the dock. "Are you guys coming or what?" They all knew he did feel slightly guilty about what had happened; Kya was his responsibility after all. "We're all coming." Luffy informed him, landing on the docks next to him. Usopp came down next, followed by Chopper exclaiming how 'cool' they were. Nami let out an exasperated sigh. "Fine, fine. I guess I'll help."

The group walked into the small town; children ran around with sparklers, people sang happy songs, and everyone looked happy. "I don't see them anywhere." Luffy whined, holding his hand over his eyes. "Well of course not baka, they wouldn't be out in the open like this." Usopp grumbled, pushing Luffy's shoulder. "They're probably hidden away somewhere, or maybe they're getting help by a doctor!" The latter statement made everyone's ears prick up. "Good idea! Let's go find a doctor!"

They searched for over an hour, asking the brain washed-like villagers if they had a doctor. After each question, the person just laughed and strode away from the pirates as if they had just made a terrible joke. "They're not here." Nami huffed, sitting down on a box. "Don't give up hope just yet!" Chopper cried waving his little arms in front of her. She was about to yell at him when a familiar voice came towards them.

"Nami-swwwaaaannnnn~!"

Zoro frowned as he watched the cook twirl his way over to the navigator, taking her hand in his. "How I've missed you so!~" He said, hearts in his eyes. "Sanji!" Luffy, Chopper and Usopp were quick to tackle him to the ground, crying things like 'I'm so glad you're say!' and 'Good thing you didn't get eaten!'. "Get off me you shit heads!" He yelled, kicking the boys off him. "Sanji-san! What happened to you? Where is Kya?"

"After the stupid swordsman left Kya-chwan alone, I went to help her. We ended up tumbling into the ocean. She should be on the island somewhere; I held onto her so we would stay together. Once we landed on the beach, I passed out. When I awoke, she was gone and I've been searching for her since."

"See Nami! They are here!" Luffy pointed accusingly at the redhead. "Shut up!" She screeched, hitting him in the head. As the pair began to bicker, a crowd seemed to form around some sort of stand decorated in New Year's garb. "What the hell kind of town is this….?" Zoro muttered, crossing his arms over his chest. "Are there any bad people here?" Chopper tugged at his pants leg nervously. "At the moment, doesn't seem to be, but things could change."

"Hello my dear townspeople!" A lightly accented voice came onto the microphone. The man was rather short and scrawny, medium length black hair and bad hairline adorning his head. He had a goatee and a scar just above his left eyebrow. "It's the New Year!" The villagers cheered and danced with joy. "We have all gathered here to celebrate not only the New Year, but the future of this island! I have met my future wife and I would like to show her to my people!" Again the people cheered wildly. "Ivan! Bring her forth!"

The Straw Hats' jaws dropped to the ground (and Sanji's eyes grew hearts five times their normal size) as a fat man dragged their missing crew member to the stage. Kya was wearing a long and flowey white strapless dress. Her hair had been braided to the side and was adorned with various flowers. And for the first time in their lives, the crew saw her with various types of makeup on her face. "My Kya-chwan is so beautiful!~"

"Stop gawking and let's go get her!" Zoro shouted at him, pulling out some of his swords. "Kya!" Luffy let out a cry as he shot his arm out, hitting the deck. The people in the crowd were still cheering for some unknown reason as the straw hat boy glared at the man at the microphone. "What is this? A group of pirates causing a disruption at our party?" The man said lowly, and suddenly the townspeople turned to them, their eyes glowing blue. "Stop them!"

Chopper, Usopp, and Nami screamed, holding onto each other. "Sanji, stop them! Me and Zoro will go for these guys!" Luffy yelled as he and his first mate charged through the zombified crowd. "Got it!" The cook called back, kicking some of the people away. The fat man jumped in the way of Luffy, punching him to the ground. "Master Zaroff, take her and run. I will stop the runt!" Zaroff grabbed Kya by the arm tightly. "I didn't realize you had friends." He hissed, making his way for the forest.

"Zoro! Go get Kya back!"

"Got it!" The swordsman ran off quickly, following Zaroff into the woods. He figured Kya still wasn't able to see or else that man would have been killed by now. He came into an open clearing, a large waterfall and a small lake on his right. "Kya! Where are you?" He called out. "She won't be joining you today." A voice told him, coming out from the shadows. "What did you do with her?" Zoro placed his sword in his mouth, ready to advance at any second.

"Why does it matter? You'll never see her again."

Kya struggled against the rope that tied her to a tree. "Shit." She cursed, kicking the dirt angrily. "What a mess." Blinking her eyes, things began to take shape. "At least this blindness is wearing off." A rustling in the bushes caught her attention. "Let me go you bastard. You're lucky I'm partially blind or you'd be dead by now."

As the person came out of the brush, she could easily tell it was not Zaroff. "Zoro!" She cried, spotting the moss green hair and three swords. He looked at her for moment before removing the katana and placing them up against a tree. He grabbed the one in white and made his way over to her.

"What are you doing? Can you not speak?" She struggled against the ropes angrily as he unsheathed the blade. "What the fuck are you doing?" He still did not answer her as he cut the ropes off her. "Zoro?" He dropped the sword to the ground and took off. She stumbled after him a little ways until they came to ledge.

She let out a small scream as the man in front of her dived off into the ground below. "What the hell are you doing?!" She yelled to no one, balling her hands into fists and putting them on either side of her face. She had a feeling that the person wasn't really Zoro, but who else could it be. "Maybe he was under control like the townspeople." She swallowed hard. "Or maybe it was an illusion. Zoro wouldn't die that easily."

The sound of barking dogs made her freeze. "He's hunting us?!" She ran back to the tree, gathered up the swords and ran. She dodge anything that looked like it could stop her, even if it was only a flower; the downside to not being able to see right. "Luffy? Sanji?" She called out loudly, hiding behind a rock. She could feel the pounding of the feet from the dogs; they were gaining on her.

"I guess this is all I can do." She unsheathed one of the katana and held it lightly in her hand. She never would have imagined something like this to be so heavy; they weighed probably as much as herself. "I've never used one of these in my life." The dogs were merely feet away from her spot, and she launched herself into an opening.

The dogs were large; stopping at her hips. They were skinny and lean with pointing ears. Their black and brown coats shimmered under the moonlight almost as much as their spiked collars. "I think there are ten of you." She chewed her lip, holding the sword tightly in her hands. "But there's only one of me." The dogs charged, snarling and drooling. "Oh fuck."

She made a swiping motion, stupidly closing her eyes. A few whimpers brought her relief at the fact she hit some. "Okay, I think I got this." She counted eight dogs now; she was pretty sure she could handle it now. The largest one in the front punched, knocking her down on her back. She held the blade up, the dog trapping it in between its teeth. She pushed with both hands, realizing too late it was the sharp side. The blade dug into her hand, causing blood to flow from her palm to her elbow. "Shit." She easily kicked the beat of her and into another dog. "Maybe I don't have it."

"Damnit princess, what are you doing with my swords?!"

She was suddenly pushed behind the rock again, the other two swords missing while she held the white one in her hand. "Zoro?" She peered around the rock to see the blurry figure of the first mate, easily fighting off the dogs. "What the hell is going on?"

"What do you mean 'what the hell is going on'!? I should be asking you that!" Zoro grumbled, kicking the last dog as it scurried away from him. "I come into the forest to look for you, get attacked by some weird guy, and find you fighting off dogs with my swords." He sighed as he sat down next to her. "What do you mean some weird guy attacked you?"

"Luffy what the hell are you doing?" Zoro growled as his captain walked into view, a smirk on his face. "You can't take Kya back. She belongs to Zaroff." Luffy's eyes had tint of blue shining in them as he spoke. "You're not Luffy." The swordsman gripped the katanas a little tighter.

"Are you sure?" Zoro jumped over the leg that nearly sent him into a tree. "Where's the real Luffy? How are you doing this?" He blocked the oncoming punch with ease. "You talk way too much." Luffy laughed strangely before wrapping his rubbery body around Zoro. He pulled back, knocking the swords out of Zoro's arms and mouth. "You're distracted."

"Get the hell off me." The swordsman struggled in the grip, but it was too tight. "When do people ever learn? Once you get here you never leave." His voice was taunting as he forced Zoro into the ground, hitting his head hard. "I'll be taking these." He ripped the sheaths off before placing each katana inside. "Santoryuu, interesting." Luffy hummed before disappearing into the forest.

"Bastards." He grumbled kicking at the dirt. "That's how I got your swords. But instead of Luffy, it was you and then you, or whoever it was jumped off the ledge. I haven't seen anybody since." She rested her head back against the rock. "So you can see now?" He raised an eyebrow warily.

"Vaguely. It's blurry, but I can tell who is who."

"You didn't tell me you were blind, sweetheart." They quickly stood to their feet as Zaroff walked over to them, a smirk on his cunning face. "Just back off." Zoro pointed a sword at the man, but he only laughed. "I wouldn't do that if I were you."

"Stay away from our leader!" Usopp came crashing out of the trees and rammed into Zoro. "What the hell?!" The swordsman kicked him clear across the field. "How are you doing this!?" Kya yelled at the chuckling man. "Easy my dear." He snapped his fingers and the man who was once Usopp suddenly turned into a pudgy man with a bald head and a beard. "Wh-What the hell just happened?!" She gasped, holding onto the rock. "It's easy." With another snap of his fingers the pudgy man turned into Sanji and another one came out of the woods, looking exactly like Kya.

Zoro looked at the clone then back to who he thought was the real assassin. "Kya, run. Get back to the crew. I'll you two mixed up if you don't leave." He said lowly, and she gave him an understanding nod. "Got it." She said before taking off. The Sanji clone ran after her, but Zoro jumped in his way.

"Nice try."

Zoro was knocked off his feet, letting clone Sanji run straight past him. "Fuck." He wiped the blood off his mouth and glared at the clone Kya. "Guess it's just you and me now." Strangely, he didn't have a problem fighting her. Tying his green bandana on his head, he smirked. "Time to get this started."

Kya ran, tripping constantly over roots and such. "Why does this always happen to us?" She grumbled, leaning back against a tree. "Why can't we just be normal pirates? Why can't we just go to an island and take it over?" She rubbed her head; a migraine was definitely coming on. "I just need to find the others and get out of here."

She ducked quickly as the tree behind her was spilt in two. "Didn't take long to find you." A voice sneered. "I bet you aren't this talkative in your natural form." She snapped, dodging oncoming kicks. He frowned, landing on his feet in front of her. "You're very rude." She took her chance and flipped with her hands on the ground. "Rankyaku." A cloud immersed than man as he flew back into the trees, turning into his original self again. "What the hell kind of Devil Fruit did he eat?" She murmured, rubbing the dirt off her hands. "Where to now?" She looked at the muddy ground, trying to retrace her steps. Thankfully, no one was following her at the moment.

"This is going to take forever." She sighed, closing her eyes. She focused all her energy to her mind, trying to look at her surroundings. A fight was going on just a hundred yards away from her; she wasn't too far off. She began to run; jumping over a fallen branch. The haki was extremely helpful in situations like this, why hadn't she used it before?

Just as she came into the clearing (and stopped relying on haki) she was sideswiped by a rubber arm. "Kya! Don't run off like that ever again!" Luffy chastised her as he nearly crushed her body in a hug. "I didn't run off." She groaned, attempting to push him, but he only snapped right back to her. "And we have other things to worry about." She motioned towards Zoro, who was fighting off an extremely frustrated Zaroff. "Zoro!" The swordsman stopped and looked at his captain, who was untangling his arms from around the assassin. "Move!" The swordsman frowned heavily, but complied. "Gomu Gomu no…Bazooka!"

Profanities were spat as Zaroff flew off into the distance, hopefully never to be seen again. "I could have taken care of him." Zoro grumbled, putting his swords away and waling over to the pair. "You were struggling!" Luffy pointed a finger at him as he laugh, gaining a small chuckle from the pink haired girl. "Kya-san!" A brown furball suddenly clung to her leg tightly. "Chopper." She said softly, bending over and picking him up. "I'm alright." Through her blurry eyes, she could see he was crying and snot was running down his nose. "No need to worry about me!"

"My beautiful Kya-chwan is safe!~" Sanji cooed, twirling over to her as she held the reindeer tightly in her arms. "Not even concerned for any other crew members." Zoro scoffed, crossing his arm. "That is a lie! I care about Nami-swan just as much!" The cook shouted back. "Now, now you guys, we shouldn't be arguing! We should be happy we're all safe!" Usopp waved his hands trying to be peace keeper. "Forget it." Nami groaned, placing a hand on his shoulder. "They'll never listen." He sighed lightly and hung his shoulders in defeat. "But-" Two long arms wrapped around the entire crew, followed by Luffy's bright laughter and cheerful voice:

"Group hug!"

According to Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji: "If an island tries to attack us and we defeat them, we take all their stuff." This is why the crew was hauling food, supplies, and of course, party stuff. "It's New Years!" Luffy shouted from Merry's head, throwing confetti into the air. "It's New Year's Eve dumbass." Nami rolled her eyes, leaning over the railing with a bored expression. "Can we please just get going?"

"I already hauled up the anchor." Zoro informed, rather late if you asked the navigator. She ticked in aggravation, but let it go with a sigh. "My resolution is to stop getting so angry." She said to herself, clenching her fist. "Well maybe you should start meditating." Kya threw in, sitting on the deck as Chopper checked her eyes. Her small cuts were bandaged and he told her the blindness should clear up within the next view days.

"Sanji! Make us some food!" Usopp yelled, holding up a kazoo like a sword. Sanji grumbled something and threw his cigarette out. "Fine, fine." He sung, obviously annoyed, and sauntered off to the kitchen.

As midnight began to approach, the crew gathered around the front deck, drinks and food in hand. "This is going to be the best year we've ever had!" Usopp chuckled loudly, just beginning to get tipsy. "We'll party every day!" Chopper added, his cheeks tinted pink.

"To a new year!"

"Kanpai!"

Everyone chugged their glass, their minds full of thoughts about what this year held. "I bet will meet a lot of cool guys!" Chopper twirled around, clinging onto Kya's leg so he couldn't fall. "Or maybe some really scary ones!" Usopp began to shake. "You're an idiot." Sanji informed, slapping the sharpshooter on the back so he fell onto the deck ace first. "You guys cannot hold your alcohol!" Nami shouted, her face and neck red. "It doesn't seem like you can either." Kya muttered, leaning against the railing.

"I w-want to party." Chopper stuttered, swaying back and forth as he tried to walk over to Luffy. "Are you even old enough to drink?" Zoro asked, picking the little reindeer up by his antler. "I-I-I'm a pirate now!" He flailed his legs around, attempting to hit Zoro in the face. She couldn't help but chuckle at the scene before her. "Maybe you should go to bed." She said lightly, taking him away from the swordsman. "Meh, you're babying him." He grumbled, chugging his drink. "He's new, it'll we-" She stopped suddenly as he put his hand on her face, wiping her eyelid and cheek forcefully. "What the hell is on your face?" He held up his hand to show her. "You're an ass. It's just make up. I was supposed to get married today, don't you remember?"

"Ya, well, don't ever wear it again." He wiped his hand on his pants leg and continued to drink. "I saw that you stupid marimo! Don't ever touch my Kya-chwan again!" Sanji was quickly in Zoro's face, his passion burning like flames around him. "And what are you going to do about it ero-cook?" The swordsman's smirk at Sanji's boiling anger was clear under the moonlight. "Oh dear." Kya sighed, holding the unconscious Chopper tightly. "Hey everyone!" Luffy stood from his place on the figurehead. "Cheers to a great year!" He held out his glass, didn't wait for anyone to cheer, and gulped the whole thing down. "Let's party forever!" The rubber boy clearly didn't understand when enough was enough. He swayed back and forth before finally falling into blue sea.

"You dumbass!"

Not my best, and certainly not on time. I'm going to get better on updating you guys I promise. 3
