Blah needed to say that I was sad at the lack of reviews other than that R&R hope it's good enjoy! Later :)
Sneak. Run. Fight.
Bang.
The hollow sound wrung from all corners of the room as all super mutants present went dead silent. All looked between each other and then at Arlong, the super mutant stood there eyes wide as Nami slumped to the ground. The gun wound in her abdomen as blood began pooling around her as her upper body fell to the ground with a thud. The super mutant master took a hesitant step forward and checked her pulse. Nothing.
Wide eyes became livid as Arlong slammed his hand into the ground over and over. A loud roar pierced the silence as Arlong cried out for his beloved pet.
"You fucking filth! You killed her!" Arlong raged as he got up and moved over to the practically dead Ussop. Chew's and Nami's beatings as well as Kaya's sleep needles still fresh in his system. Arlong picked Ussop up and roared in his face.
"She's dead. Now let me go." Ussop said dangling in the Super mutants grip.
"Take him to the furnace! That is where I'll let you go filth." Arlong said as he dropped Ussop to the ground not so gently and went to where Nami's dead body was.
"Take her to the morgue." Arlong said with a hint of regret in his voice. The Super mutant stormed out of the room intent on finishing off the last of the human filth that had followed Nami to the factory. Raider Butcher Zoro would die by his hand.
"That wasn't part of the deal!" Ussop tried yelling but his scream fell on deaf ears as random Super mutants pulled him away. Chew followed them hoping to do the deed himself.
"Shit shit shit..." Ussop whined wincing in pain as his broken body was dragged away. He hoped Kaya could save him in time.
Several Super mutants pulled Nami's body away in the direction of the morgue.
~~~~~~~~~~~~ with Kaya ~~~~~~~~
"Ussop you idiot." Kaya muttered as she tried to decide who to save. On one hand there was Nami the one woman who had a hold on Luffy's heart. And on the other... A coward who had stalked her since she was a teenager. Kaya chose Nami as she scurried through the vents to reach the morgue or what the Super Mutants called the morgue. After a short time they reached the opposite side of the factory where Kaya had to hold her mouth to keep from vomiting.
The morgue as Arlong had called it was a place of horror where a mound of dead women nearly ten feet high rotted away. Some bodies were missing appendages and others decapitated. Then there was what Kaya could only describe as flesh cages were hung to dry. Pieces of rancid flesh left to dry hanging on fencing giving them a spherical shape.
Nami's body was tossed to the ground roughly beside the mound of women, her body sliding in a half inch of blood. Kaya wondered if Nami was even alive at the moment. Maybe Ussop had killed her. She wouldn't put it past the coward.
Kaya quietly pulled her self through an open vent hatch and on to the sky walk high above the mutant who walked the room. He had the look of a butcher with a layer of filth covering his whole body. He made his way to Nami with a sick grin on his face.
"Arlong pet... Dead... Finally." The Super Mutant struggled to say as he reached Nami's body and lifted her up by one arm. A lecherous grin filled his face as he lifted a crudely assembled machete to her neck.
"You make pretty gift... Arlong." The Super Mutant began before hearing something above him. The Super Mutant looked up to slowly as Kaya came down with a pipes he had found in the ventilation and used her momentum to put it through the Mutants head. The Mutant's body stood still for a moment as if it didn't register it was already dead before beginning to fall to his knees.
"Nami." Kaya whispered as he grabbed the girl mid air and made sure she didn't go down with the Super Mutant.
Kaya searched the room for a clean and sterile place to operate on the girl before giving up and moving the girl to a butcher slab. Nami looked terrible as her face and body were bruised purple and a gunshot in her gut. Kaya took a deep breath as she inspected the wound. With a needle and a knife Kaya inspected the wound and found it was a through and through wound that had missed her stomach and liver by millimeters. While inspecting the wound Kaya's medic hands had noticed a slight twitch in Nami.
The medic smiled as she held the other woman's wrist and used her hyper sensitive senses to catch a faint pulse that would be missed by even a trained surgeon.
"I take it back Ussop." Kaya said to herself with a smile as Kaya identified a puncture wound on Nami's thigh. It was tiny and hardly noticeable but there. Ussop had pulled one of the sleeping needles from himself and injected Nami. While it was a weak dose it had done the job mixed with the gunshot and Nami's already weakened state it had simulated the girls death. The cowardly Sniper had given Kaya the chance to save Nami.
Thinking quick Kaya injected Nami with a Med-X and numerous stimpacks while pulling out a lighter and burning the gun wound closed. It wasn't the best cauterizing she'd done but it was the best she could do with what she had currently. Kaya ripped Nami's shirt sleeve off and bandaged the wound as the girl laid on the slab.
"Hungry.." A super mutant announced in the distance causing Kaya to jump and run to the door and look for something to bar the room. Kaya grabbed the iron bar that she had impaled the butcher with and kicked the bar free from the skull of the mutant before using it to hold the door.
The door attempted to open the first time calmly but progressively got more violent as the Super Mutant on the other side got more irritated. Kaya backed away slowly realizing that the room was a dead end and she couldn't possibly get back up into the vents with Nami.
"I'm sorry Nami please forgive me for this." Kaya whispered before moving her body into the mound of the dead and putting a couple bodies over her. Kaya could no longer hold herself back and vomited over to the side holding herself on her knees. She gathered herself just enough to run and jump off the wall nearly slipping due to the blood soaked floor. Grasping the bottom ledge of the skywalk and pulling herself up. She made her way back into the vent just as the Super Mutant broke through.
"Hmm... Butch... Dead... Hungry.." The Super Mutant said before picking up the Super Mutant butcher's arm and ripping it from its body.
"Fresh... Flesh... Good." The Super Mutant drooled over the piece of flesh before biting into it. A blood drop hit the super mutants eye causing the beast to look up towards the vent. He saw Kaya's bloody trail but couldn't put two and two together so he continued eating.
"Too close." Kaya muttered before thinking of the coward who was still in need of rescue. She made her way through the ventilation before reaching a large open room where the shaft she was in had been torn off forcing her out of hiding.
The room looked like a holding cage with Brahmin and other creatures torn to pieces and scattered about. It was almost pitch black in the room as the only light came from the cracks in the ceiling. Kaya gulped and looked for an exit before her eyes stopped on a figure in the dark. To Kaya's horror in what little light was provided she could make out the unique super mutants physique. Six arms carrying six miniguns. It was the super mutant who the three Strawhats had fought before reaching the Factory. How could the creature be alive?
"Gyuhuhu me found you!" As a familiar sound of miniguns spinning were heard as Kaya ran to avoid the gun fire.
"You think you kill 8? 8 strong! 8 not die! 8 kill you! 8 eat you!" 8 called out as he chuckled watching the blonde run from his firing.
"Hold out Ussop I'll be there soon." Kaya said as she slid under the minigun fire and attempted to attack the lumbering Super Mutant.
~~~~~~~~~~ with Ussop ~~~~~~~~
"He... Dead." The super mutant who was dragging Ussop said to Chew. The superior Super mutant looked to Ussop and sneered.
"Not dead... Dying." Chew said hoping to watch the life leave Ussop's eyes.
"Furnace burn... No food." The other Super Mutant said with sadness in his voice all the super mutants had been eating as of late was old flesh a little fresh flesh made him drool.
"Eat first... Burn second.." Chew told the other Mutant causing both to laugh as they reached the furnace.
It was a large furnace to keep the heat going in the factory standing at nearly 10 feet tall and could easily fit a human into its access door. The heat coming off it was enough to keep a normal person standing a good 5 feet away to keep from sweating.
"I eat head now." The other Super mutant yelled as he tried to tear off Ussop's head before Chew pushed him away.
"I eat all!" Chew screamed as he punched the other Super mutant in the face knocking him off his feet.
"Hungry!" The other Mutant yelled as he stood up and tackled Chew to the ground biting at the superior mutant.
"You eat rot flesh!" Chew roared as he punched the other Super Mutant multiple times in the head knocking him off. Chew then climbed on rope off the other and wrapped his hands around his throat and strangled him.
The other super mutant fought and struggled against Chew but eventually started to convulse at the lack of air. Chew wore a wicked smile as he strangled the life out of the other mutant.
"Weak." Chew said before crushing the Super Mutants throat and standing up. When he stood up he let out a roar. Ussop was gone.
Chew threw the dead Super mutant into the fire in a rage and set off in finding his prey. Ussop was battered and broken and Chew knew he couldn't have gotten far.
"Find you! Kill you! Eat you! Burn you!" Chew roared as he tore the room apart looking for the sniper.
Ussop had left the room dragging himself along the floor behind numerous barrels. He hadn't expected a chance to escape and was pretty sure he was going to die but Chew had inadvertently saved his life. All that was on the Sniper's mind now was to flee. He had done his part now it was up to the rest of the Strawhats.
'Coward! Your just going to run?' Deadshot called from within Ussop making the Sniper roll his eyes.
'My arm is broken. My leg is broke. My nose is broken. My ribs r cracked and broken. I'm bruised head to toe. The only reason I'm still moving is because the sleeping needles Kaya threw at me are acting as a pain killer. Oh yeah and I was seconds from getting my head ripped off. I've done my part.' Ussop told himself only to receive a huff in response.
'A cowards excuse. Find some medicine and get back in there! A stimpacks or two and you'd be good to go.' Deadshot said back only to be ignored.
'No I'm done being heroic... Now I'm going to do what I do best. Survive." Ussop said as he pulled himself to hide behind a barrel watching two Super mutants head for the exit.
'God damn coward." Deadshot said before falling silent. Ussop shook the voice out of his head and continued on. He hoped them the best but this was too much. Ussop hadn't expected anything like this.
~~~~~~~~~ with Zoro ~~~~~~~~~
"That all you have?" Zoro said as he decapitated yet another Super Mutant as he out ran bullets that were flying from every direction. He had to admit he hadn't expected the many Super Mutants and Nightkin they were like ants where he cut down one two more would appear and continue to try killing him. If it hadn't been for the GOD gene Luffy had bestowed upon him he would have fallen long ago.
Zoro dodged out of the way of a Super Mutant with a cleaver while at the same time deflecting a stray bullet that would have pierced his skull. He cut the Super mutant with the cleaver in half vertically using its body as cover briefly before dodge rolling away from a grenade that had been tossed.
There were too many to escape and too far away to kill them all Zoro thought as he cut through a Nightkin who thought he could get the drop on him. Zoro barely had time to think as he dived out of the way of an incoming RPG as his dive turned into a summersault with two blades free cutting off the legs from to un expecting mutants. Zoro stood immediately and put his swords into the hearts of the two before continuing his running.
"Zoro!" Came a gurgled but familiar voice. Zoro practically lost step as he peered to his side and saw the super mutant standing in afraid with a sword in his hand. Some silver hair shot in random strands out of his head.
Zoro slid into cover goring a Nightkin in the process before pulling his blades out of him and wiping them clean. Zoro then pushed the Nightkin body over a grenade that had been thrown his way and watched the body explode into pieces.
"Saga that you!?" Zoro yelled over his shoulder as he rushed from behind his temporary cover to dodge another RPG.
"Me.. Saga... Kill... You... Me best!" The Super Mutant gargles out as he threw himself into the fray running at Zoro with a new blade that looked like a broadsword. He cut into a Nightkin who had attempted to surprise Zoro. Zoro turned in surprise and blocked the blade that would have cut through him to. Zoro kicked Saga in the gut pushing him back several feet where an RPG was on a collision course. Saga didn't even bother with the RPG as he swung in a circle in an attempt to cut Zoro in half missing Zoro but connecting with the RPG and continuing his spin. A tornado of fire moved at Zoro causing the swordsman to back away and run for more cover.
Saga threw the fire tornado as if it were his to control at Zoro just barely missing the raider butcher as he hid behind cover.
"Me Best!" Saga screamed as he came down with a vertical slash cutting through the cover like butter. Zoro grew angry at his cover being blown again and stepped on Saga's blade which had gotten stuck in the ground.
In one move Zoro sliced Saga diagonally upwards across his chest before moving to better cover batting away a grenade as he did.
"Your still shit compared to me Saga." Zoro said with grimace sad that his old bounty buddy was now a super mutant.
"Saga... Best ever!" Saga said with a roar and pulled his blade out and slashed at Zoro locking blades. The Super Mutant didn't even notice the huge bloody wound Zoro had left on him.
"Your not." Zoro said as he pushed Saga away and sliced the super mutants kneecap. Saga ignored this and the blades that puncture his chest as he grabbed Zoro's neck.
"Super Mutant Strong!" Saga said as blood gushed from his mouth ignorant of the wounds he was sustaining. The super mutant was too focused on killing Zoro. Zoro began stabbing Saga as many times as he could in order to break the mutant hold before cutting off the mutant's hand. Zoro rolled out of the way pulling Saga's hand off as he did.
"Looks like becoming a mutant really does steal intelligence." Zoro spoke aloud before dodging Saga's blade. The Super Mutant was now wielding it one handed and wild, swinging it with reckless abandon.
"Kuurobi." A voice called out as Zoro blocked Saga again but this time got hit in his chest so hard it launched him into a nearby barrel denting it.
Zoro barely had time to think before Kuurobi's fist came down on his chest. Once. Twice. Thrice. Kuurobi didn't let up till the Super Mutant knew Zoro was weakened. Saga looked on in fury as Zoro was being hit by Kuurobi and charged at the Nightkin.
"Saga stop you've fought enough." Arlong said from his place on a nearby building before jumping off.
He made his way to where Kuurobi was trying to smash the life out of Zoro before watching Kuurobi howl in pain as he pulled away a stump.
"Fucking mutant another hour of that and it might have hurt." Zoro said as he had noticed all the gun fire had stopped and looked toward the mutant that walked towards him.
"You the boss?" Zoro spat blood as he kicked Moved past Kuurobi who cradled his stump of an arm. The Super mutant merely nodded at Zoro before cracking his knuckles and barring his shark like teeth.
"Your the last Strawhat huh? That long nosed scum... He's dead. So is the girl. All that's left is you." Arlong said as he ran at Zoro.
"Liar! They're stronger than any of you!" Zoro yelled as rage took his mind. Ussop and Kaya couldn't be dead. He blocked Saga who made a swipe at him before bringing his blade down on Arlong.
"He died like the scum he was! And she... She was weak! She should've just killed him!" Arlong said as he expertly dodged the blades for his size showing knowledge only experience could teach. Zoro realized he was fighting someone of skill. If he hadn't lost his cool he would have smiled.
"Bullshit! Ussop and Kaya aren't dead!" Zoro screamed as he turned his blade mid swing and watched as Arlong barely dodged it. Arlong backed a few more feet breathing restlessly before eyeing the factory.
"All of you head back to the factory we've been had! The human filth have infiltrated our home!" Arlong yelled before Zoro laughed.
"Didn't know about Kaya huh? Well I'm sure that will come back to bite you in the ass." Zoro smiled smugly knowing that things would be alright if Kaya was still alive.
"Shut up scum! Kuurobi! Saga! Kill him." Arlong said before brushing himself off and walking toward the factory.
"You know... He's not dead and he's coming. Right now. As we speak." Zoro smiled as he watched the two recent amputee victims circle him like feral dogs. Arlong turned his head slightly in fury.
"Strawhat." Arlong seethed before heading back to the factory to make sure that this Kaya was dead.
