Ah ha ha ha ha ha!!! Welcom back to my torture chamber -er- Fanfic!...

Chapter Twenty-Eight

Ia stared in disbelief at them, Zac looked disgusted, Cam was protecting Ia (or trying to), and Chey was staring blankly at them.

"What should we do?" Chey asked.

"Fight them!" Zac yelled.

"They look weird?" Ia said from behind Cam.

"So? They're going to kill us!" Chey yelled as she kicked one as he came closer.

"I wonder if they can swim!" Ia said evilly and flung most of them off the boat into the water where they just floated on their backs.

"Hum?" Ia thought as Zac started slicing them with Zoro's fallen katanas.

Chey had about 10 around her trying to kill her but she just kept kicking them in the legs but then aimed a bit higher where no guy wanted to be kicked. But nothing happened. She kicked one guy really hard in the leg, and her foot went right into the guys leg. Like he was made of rubber, or something.

"OH! GROSS GROSS GROSS GROSS GROSS GROSS!" she screamed, hopping around the ship, crashing into several of the strange men and getting her fist stuck in one's stomach, her elbow in one guys arm, and her other foot up to the knee in some guys shoulder down to his stomach.

Cam sprinted up behind them without them noticing and threw them off the ship.

"They're really light." he said as he took four guys and threw them off where they just floated for a bit and climbed back up.

"IA! BEHIND YOU!" Sanji screamed fromt the mast to Ia, who was standing there when a guy came up behind her and twisted her arm around behind her back.

Whining from the pain, the guy twisted her around and said, "STOP OR SHE GOES OVER!"

Everybody looked up. Cam was holding up a few guys, Zac was dicing another and Chey was still trying to get out of the four she was stuck in already.

Ia rolled her eyes but heard a horrible crack.

"HOLY -censord-!" she screamed as he pushed her to the floor but as he did so, her ankle, which was caught on some loose floorboards, twisted around and snapped.

The Candyman started laughing and everybody else, the redmen, started laughing.

Tears burned in Ia's eyes as she moved around and bit the guy in the arm and managed to take out a huge piece.

"THAT'S DISGUSTING!" Zac and Chey yelled.

Ia started chewing and smiled. "It's good!"

Cam and Zac stared at Chey yelled, "CANNIBAL!"

"No! No! They're all gummy! Like gummy bears!" Ia yelled, getting up and taking a huge piece out of the guys face. He screamed in agony and fell down dead.

"NO WONDER I'M STUCK IN YOU GUYS!" Chey screamed and took off one guys head and started chewing. Blood didn't come out, but red pop.

"That is disgusting." Zoro said as he watched the four teens eat their weight in candy.

"Ia-swan? Are you ok?" Cam asked, looking at her arm as it bent a different way.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Could you get Chopper for me, please?" she asked as she at the fingers off of the hand of a gummy man.

"Kay." he said and a second later was over untying Chopper.

"HEY! YOU CAN'T EAT MY ARMY!" The Candyman yelled.

"Apparently, we are." Chey said.

"How are you going to defeat me?" he asked.

"Can you swim?" Ia asked.

"Yes?"

"Damn." Ia muttered.

"What? Were you going to throw me into the water!" he laughed.

"Well, if you couldn't swim." Ia said arguingly.

"Hey, Zoro! Here's your swords back!" Zac yelled as he tossed three swords over to where Zoro stood, placing his bandanna on. The rest of the crew stood there too. Nami was getting her staff ready, Usopp was pulling out his sling shot, Sanji was tapping his foot, Chopper was readying his horns, and Luffy was placing his fallen hat on his head.

"W-what are you g-g-going to do t-t-to me?" he asked nervously.

A few short minutes later, The Candyman was flying through the air away from the Going Merry.

Ia, Cam, Chey, and Zac were sitting on the railing, massaging their stomachs when Luffy's stretched out leg came from around and pushed them all into the water below.

To Ia's confusion, they hit ground fairly quickly. The water didn't taste salty and it smelled very familiar.

She stood up and found that the water only reached her shoulders. It was nice and warm while the wind was blistering cold. She cleared her eyes and opened them to see Chey, Zac, and Cam all standing.

"Um... where's the ship?" Chey asked, looking around.

Ia looked behind her and saw not a ship, but lights, off in the distance.

"Where are we?" Zac asked.

It was nighttime and there were orange lights off in the distance. Behind them were trees and over a ways was a bluff with faded graffiti on it that said (or was suppose to say) Sweed.

"Looks like Negaunee." Ia said as she walked towards shore, shivering as she touched the cold night air and 50 mph wind.

"I can't be." Cam said.

"It is." Ia said when she heard, way off in the distance, a log truck and a speeding motorcycle with it's engin revving.

"I wonder what day it is?" Zac said when they reached shore.

H-Y-M-N-T-O-T-H-E-S-E-A

Sanji ran over to the edge where he saw them all fall and expected to see them all floating there.

"Where are they?" Sanji yelled.

"They're not there?" Luffy asked.

"YES!" Sanji yelled angrily.

"Chey's gone!" Zoro yelled in frustration.

"So is Ia-chan!" Sanji yelled and sat on the railing and looked down to see the half heart necklace. "Ia's necklace." Sanji whispered and pocketed it.

O-N-E-L-A-S-T-S-H-O-T

As they were trying to navigate their way through the dark and muddy trails sopping wet, and in Ia's case, muddy (she had slid down the hill that was covered in mud puddles), Cam noticed something wrong.

"Ia, wheres the necklace?"

"What necklace?" she asked as he helped her along. She was managing to step in every mud hole.

"The other half of the one I gave you!" he yelled.

Ia's hand instantly grabbed hers which was hanging from her neck.

"You're missing yours?" she asked. "It might be back in the lake- we'll look later!" she said as he was about to turn around and go back for it.

"You're right." he said as they started climbing a hill.

Ia just nodded as she tripped in, yet another, mud puddle. To make thigs worse, it started to pour.

"This probably's not gonna get any worse." Ia shivered as they kept walking.


I-T-S-N-O-T-O-V-E-R...
