Perona sighed as she sat on her bed in her room, she had just sent most of her zombies to go search the new ship that they had caught. So far she hadn't heard anything yet and it was annoying her. "Ugh, why does this have to take so long, I want to scare people and get some new zombies! I want cute ones!" She groaned as she kicked her feet on the bed.
"Don't worry Lady Peron-" Started Kumashi before seeing her glare at him.
"I told you not to speak, you're not cute when you do! Your voice is too deep!" She shouted as she stuck out her tongue.
He covered his mouth and nodded while the camera panned away to show the Risky Brothers lugging three coffins over their heads.
"We got them, we got them!" They chanted as they ran through a doorway, unaware that the top coffin was knocked off the stack by the low door frame. It landed on it's side while they turned a corner as the lid on it opened up.
Inside was an unconscious Chopper, unaware that he was in a coffin. He muttered to himself while the lid slid off all the way with a thud making his eyes begin to slowly open.
"Ugh...why does my back feel so hard….where am I?" He groaned as he began to sit up. He crawled out of the coffin and rubbed his head before looking around in confusion. "What happened, where is everyone?" He said before looking down and seeing he was in a coffin. "A-Am I dead?!"
He paled and touched his head and body all over before checking his pulse which was still going. "I'm alive! Whooo-hooo!" He cheered before looking around nervously. "Wait, I remember, this is Hogback's mansion, but where are Nami and Usopp and the others?"
He looked at the empty and chilling darkness which was making him feel a tad scared. 'Oh no, am I lost?'
He began to slowly walk forwards as he looked around nervously. 'Are one of those dangerous zombie pictures going to get me?' He took a gulp and carefully looked around the corner to make sure the coast was clear. 'I have to find the others and get out of here!' He thought as he looked around nervously. When he didn't see or hear anyone he began to walk down the hall.
Meanwhile Perona was groaning on her bed. "Hey, Kumashi, I'm hungry, go get me some food."
"Yes Lad-."
"I said no talking!" She snapped making him jump and nod before rushing out of the room. "Ugh, I so need a new cuter zombie, one who's voice is just as cute as it is." She muttered with a pout.
Back with Chopper, he was jogging to try and find a way out faster. "Why is this place so big!" He groaned before he began to hear footsteps heading towards him. 'Oh no, I need to hide!' He looked around and spotted a suit of armor before running over and tried hiding behind the legs. A few second later what looked like a giant teddy bear wearing a face mask ran past him, confusing him. 'Was that a zombie?'
'I need to get Lady Perona something filling before she gets more annoyed.'
'If it's running away then maybe the others were fighting it in that way!' he thought as he got out from behind the armor and began to run in the direction the zombie had come from. 'I'm coming Luffy!'
Perona layed on her stomach and tried to get comfy, but her stomach growling made it hard to relax. "Ugh, I'm so hungry! That food better be delicious!" She groaned as she buried her face in one of the stuffed animals. She heard footsteps coming nearby and peaked up. "That was fast."
The door began to slowly open and to her surprise instead of Kumashi coming in with food Chopper walked in, closing the door behind him. "Hey, you're not Kumashi!"
"Wha!" He jumped and turned to the girl with wide eyes. "Y-You're not Luffy!"
"Huh? Who is Luffy? And who are you?" She asked in confusion as she got off her bed and began to walk towards him.
"N-No one." He spoke up with a gulp. 'She's probably working with Hogback if she's living in this mansion.'
'Hmmmm, I don't remember seeing him before, but he definitely doesn't look like a normal pirate or even a human….He's pretty cute….maybe Hogback made me a new zombie?' She thought as she looked him over with a grin.
"Um...my bad, I'll just leave you alone."
"No. You're my new zombie, aren't you, that would explain why you said some stranger's name, your old memories from a pirate are still in there, aren't they?" She said as he paled a bit.
"W-What?!"
"Yeah, I guess Hogback finally got around to making me my new cute zombie!" She said as she reached down and grabbed him. "Your voice even sounds cute!"
"W-Wait!" He cried out as she picked him up. "There's a mistake!"
"You're so soft too, like a cute little stuffed animal!" She said as she began to walk towards her bed.
Chopper tried squirming in her grip, but she wouldn't let up. "Hey, let me go!"
"Now calm down, even though watching your cute struggles is fun, you're my zombie now, your shadow is just settling into the new body." She said as she sat down on the bed. "Hogback did amazing work on you, I can't even see any large stitches on you."
"But I'm not a zombie!"
"How can you not be one, you're small cute, you look like the cross of a racoon dog and a deer, plus you can talk and you have a cute hat, there's no way you weren't created by the doctor!" She smiled hugging him closely. "Besides, I've been wanting a zombie as cute as you for ages! Now all I need to do is think up a new name for you…"
"I already have a name! And I just said I'm not a zombie!"
"Now hush, talking back to me isn't cute at all, I am your superior on this ship after all." She said with a frown. "Kumashi is already taken...what to pick, what to pick….."
'Is she nuts or just delusional?' He thought as he tried to crawl out of her arms, but with no luck.
"Let's see….I think I got it! Shikashi!" She called out with a smile.
"That's not my name." He muttered with anime tears. 'That just says deer corpse!'
"From now on your new name is Shikashi! How do you like it?" She asked with a smile.
"It's not my name, it's Chopper."
"Chopper? No, that's not cute at all! Your new name is Shikashi, so forget your old name right now!" She said with a pout. 'How long until his shadow forgets his old life?'
Chopper groaned and slumped down in the grip. 'She's delusional, completely delusional.'
"There we go, you're so cute Shikashi!" She called before there was a knocking on the door. "Kumashi, is that you?"
'Does she just add Shi to everything?' He wondered before the door opened and the same large bear he saw earlier popped his head in which made Chopper notice the stitches and freak out. 'Ah! Zombie!'
"Lady Perona, I have gathered yo-." He started before a ghost flew through him.
"I told you not to talk! Your voice isn't cute at all, not at all, not like Shikashi!"
"I feel like crawling under a rock forever." He groaned on his hands and knees making Chopper's eyes widen.
"Now where's my food?" She asked with a frown as she cuddled Chopper.
'How did she do that, is she a devil fruit eater? Wait, she said she was my superior….is she a pirate on this island?!'
"Oh! Right here." Perked up the bear holding a tray out before noticing Chopper. "Um, who is that?"
"This is Shikashi! He's a new zombie, isn't he cute?" She smiled holding Chopper up who grew nervous with Kumashi frowning.
"I don't remember Hogback ma-." He started before she smacked him.
"Say yes or no! And do it quickly, your voice is so uncute!"
He nodded quickly and just glared at Chopper. "No."
"What?! He is so cute, he's even cuter than you are, and his voice is high and cute!" She shouted before sending another ghost through Kumashi.
"Ah, oh why do I bother? My life is pointless." He groaned on the ground with Chopper feeling sorry for the zombie with a sweatdrop.
'She's really petty if things aren't cute.'
"Now give me the food and leave you uncute idiot!" She shouted as Kumashi got up.
He nodded and set the tray down in front of her before he walked out while sending Chopper a final glare while making a fist. 'Hogback never made a zombie like him, and he's not cuter than me! I'll make him pay.'
'He's scary! I need to leave!' Chopper thought as Perona looked over the food.
"Decent, but it could be better." She remarked while picking up the utensils and started cutting a piece off the steak before eating it. She had Chopper in her lap so he couldn't get away from her as she ate. "This is pretty tasty, but it could use some salt."
'That's it!' "Hey, why don't I go get some from the kitchen?"
"Hmmm… no, you still have your old memories and I don't want you to eat any salt on accident." She said as Chopper looked at her in confusion.
"Huh? What are you talking about?"
"Oh, you'll just lose your shadow if you eat salt, then I'll lose my new cutest zombie." She said as she hugged him to her face.
Chopper inwardly groaned while rubbing his chin in his mind. 'If that's true, then I need to tell the others! That'll really turn things around for all the zombies, but how do I get away from her?'
"Hey, what number are you anyway? Did Hogback recently make you or have you been in cold storage waiting for a good shadow?"
"Um...recent! Yeah, I didn't get a number yet."
"Of course you do, Hogback is a real stickler for that, he marks all his corpses before putting a shadow into them, even if he hid your stitches he would have put the number on you somewhere." She replied before holding him over her head and started looking him over.
"H-Hey, stop that!"
"Don't worry, I'm just looking for your number, and don't worry about not knowing your number, most zombies don't know it until they are either told it or they see it...is it under your hat or your pants?"
'Crap! I can't let her just look there like I'm a toy!' He thought with a pale expression.
"Wow, your fur is really soft, I wonder if he cleaned you before sending you to me?" She said as she began to take his hat off. She looked inside and around his head. "Hmm, not here, must be in your pants."
"H-hey! You don't need to look there!" He cried as he grabbed his pants in order to keep her from pulling them down.
"Oh relax, I'm just gonna take a peek." She said with a smile as she moved his hands away and started to pull down his pants. "Besides, most zombies aren't anatomically correct."
Chopper went wide eyed and flailed his arms around before managing to kick her hands back and fell on the bed before darting off and out the door with a slam. "I gotta get out of here!"
"Hey, what are you doing? Get back here!" She shouted as she raised her hand at him as a ghost flew out of it.
Chopper ran as fast as he could before seeing the ghost following him and screamed before turning left. 'I can't let it catch me!'
"Get back here!" She shouted as she ran after him, firing off more ghosts with her hand.
"I can't!"
"Just stop running and I'll be able to get you, it's that easy! You aren't being very cute right now!"
'Should I take a chance and fight her? I don't know what her ghosts can do, but if I don't take this serious I'll never be able to warn the others!' He thought as the ghosts got closer and closer until they were almost about to touch him.
Perona glared before the ghosts managed to go through Chopper making him fall down allowing her to catch up.
"Why do I bother? I wish I was a sea cucumber."
"Bad Shikashi! Why did you run away like that? That was so uncute!" She said as she grabbed him with a frown.
He let out a depressed groan while she picked him up. "I am scum, I wish I was never born."
"Yes yes, but you're mine now, now are you going to be a good zombie?"
Chopper just let out another groan.
"I'll take that as a yes." She said as she carried him back to her room with a smile as Kumashi watched from behind a corner with a frown.
"Damn that deer, I should be the one being there for Lady Perona." He muttered with a frown as the doors closed behind her. "I have to get rid of him somehow."
Chopper was set back on the bed with his mind beginning to go back to normal allowing him to groan and shake his head. "Ugh, that felt so weird…. I felt so depressed."
"And you will again if you try to run again, ok?" Frowned Perona while moving to her dresser. "You sit there while I get some stuff for you."
"Huh? What stuff?" He asked in confusion as she opened up the dresser doors.
"This." she grinned while reaching inside and pulled out some small clothes making him get a sinking feeling.
"H-hey, what are you going to do with those?" He asked, already dreading the answer as he tried to scoot off the bed only for ghosts to surround it from all sides.
"I wanna see which outfit will make you even more cuter." She said with a grin a he paled.
"N-No way! I won't let you!" He cried as she began to approach the bed.
"Hold still, you're gonna look great." She said as she set the outfits on the bed before reaching towards him. "Think of it at punishment for running away."
'Crap!' He thought as she grabbed him.
"Now, which is first, the sailor uniform or the ball gown?" She asked with a smile.
"...neither?"
"Sailor uniform it is! I'll just need to take off your hat and pants first." She said as he began to struggle more.
"Why can't I just keep them on!"
"Because, they won't make you look as cute."
After some minutes of struggling, Chopper looked at his reflection in the sailor uniform while feeling less of a man, or, male reindeer.
"Aw, you look so cute!" She cried with a smile as she picked him up and began to snuggle him happily.
'Thank god none of the others can see me like this.' He thought with anime tears.
"Oh! I forgot to check you for a number! Oh well, I can do it when I'm changing you into your next outfit." She said as he groaned.
"Do we have to?"
"Of course!" She said right before there was a knock on the door. "What, who is it?" She called in annoyance.
"Perona-sama, Gekkoh-sama wants to see you." Called out a zombie.
"Uuuggghhh, damn it, I can't ignore him." She groaned as she got up. "Don't you dare run away, ok?"
"Crystal." He said as his hopes began to rise. 'She's leaving, I can finally get out of here!'
Perona walked to the door and went out while not noticing Kumashi watching from around the corner.
'Finally, she's gone, and now I can deal with that damn deer!' He thought as he began to move towards the door. He peeked in and saw Chopper looking down at the uniform making Kumashi narrow his eyes. 'She's using him for dress up? That's my job!'
"Why does she even have all these outfits, they obviously don't fit her…" He said as he tugged at the shirt when suddenly he heard the door slam shut. He turned around nervously, expecting Perona, but when he saw it was Kumashi, he became confused. "Huh? What are you doing here?"
"I am Lady Perona's favorite zombie, not you, and I'm going to keep it that way." He growled as he began to approach Chopper.
"W-Wait!" Spoke Chopper with his hoofs up. "I'm not even a zombie!"
"...I KNEW IT! You are getting close to Lady Perona to hurt her, I will end you!" He cried as he rushed towards Chopper.
The reindeer jumped to the side as Kumashi swung his paw and caused part of the bed to break before he ran past him and out the open door. "Freedom!"
'Get back here!" Kuma shouted as he began to run after the reindeer as we cut to Perona with Gekkoh Moria, Hogback and Absalom.
'I can't believe I had to leave my cute zombie alone, I hope this is worth it.' She thought with a frown as Hogback reported the status of the Straw Hats to the group.
"And so they've been split up and are being hunted down right now as we speak." Smiled the demented scientist.
"Very good, no one has escaped Thriller Bark before, it's just a matter of time." Moriah laughed as the others nodded. "You are dismissed, just be on the lookout for those Straw Hat pirates."
"Wait Moriah-sama." Spoke up Absalom. "Regarding the red headed woman, I want to make it clear if she's captured, I want her to be my bride."
"Fine, but if she causes any trouble at all she's going to become the doctors newest guinea pig, understood?" Moriah said with a laugh.
"Absolutely."
'Oh, I should probably thank Hogback now while I'm here, that way I don't have to do it later and I can spend more time with Shikashi!' Thought Perona turning to the scientist. "Hogback, I should thank you."
"Eh? Whatever for my dear?" He asked as he turned to the pink headed girl.
"For the newest zombie of yours, he's absolutely perfect!" She gushed with a smile. "Soft fur, clean, warm, and no stitches anywhere! He's so realistic I couldn't tell the difference."
"Eh? What are you talking about, all my creations have stitches, and the last zombie I made you was a penguin with a dogs face." He said in confusion. "What number was this zombie?"
"I couldn't find any numbers under his hat or pants, I was having too much fun dressing him up."
"Huh...I don't remember making him, could you bring him down to my lab later so I could check him over?"
"Sure, after he wears a few more outfits I have in store." She smirked before walking off.
"That girl and her obsession with cute stuff...oh well, time to go find the straw hats and my Cindry!" He cackled as he began to walk away.
Back with Chopper, he managed to ditch the uniform while Kumashi chased him and was swinging his arms around. "Just leave me alone! I just want to get off this island and find my friends!"
"No! I will punish you for getting close to Lady Perona!"
"I didn't even want to be hers!" Cried out Chopper jumping to avoid a claw which broke part of the floor. "Helpppp!" He cried as he kept running from the over jealous bear.
"I won't let you or your friends hurt Lady Perona! I'll crush you into dust!"
"Huh? Kumashi? Shikashi?"
They both froze as they turned their heads to see Perona staring at them from the end of a hallway.
"What's going on here?"
"Um….he was trying to escape!" Kumashi said quickly.
"What?!"
"That's not true!" Chopper cried as she began to march towards him.
"And where is your sailor uniform?!"
"Um….he ripped it!" He spoke up in panic pointing to Kumashi.
"That's a lie! He told me he's not a real zombie!"
"What? That's impossible! Of course he is a zombie, just look at him! And I thought I told you not to talk!"
"Well, where are his stitches and serial number then?"
"Clearly the number is in his pants, oh! Which reminds me, I need to take him down to Hogback since he says he doesn't remember making him, probably hit his head and knocked himself out while forgetting."
"But he's not wear-." He started before a ghost went through him, silencing him as he fell the floor in depression.
"He is! And I'm gonna prove it." She shouted as she marched towards Chopper and grabbed him. "This will put an end to all this not zombie nonsense!"
"But I'm not! I'm really not!" He spoke in panic at the idea of losing his pants.
"Shikashi, stop this nonsense right now! You are dead and you are my cute little zombie, now stop struggling!" She shouted as she grabbed him and started carrying him down the hall.
Kumashi groaned while curling up with anime tears with Chopper doing the same.
"Honestly, I can't understand why my zombies can't get along, is he jealous that you're my new cute zombie?" She said as they reached her room.
"Alright, you left me no choice." Spoke Chopper reaching into his pants pocket.
"Hey, what are you doing Shikashi?" She asked in confusion. She saw him pull out a yellow orb and bite down on it before eating it and swallowed. "What did you-"
"Guard Point!" He let out before his body fur expanded big enough to make Perona let go and get pushed back while he landed and shook his head. "See? Could a real zombie do this?"
"W-What is this Shikashi? You're so...so….fluffy!" She cried as she tried to hug him. "It's so cute!"
Chopper's jaw dropped while she snuggled against his fur. "W-What?!"
"I knew Hogback made some modifications to some zombies to have powers or abilities, but I never knew he could do this! You are the cutest thing ever!" She cried with stars in her eyes.
'She still doesn't see it!' He thought before groaning. "I'm not a zombie! I'm a pirate!"
"Of course, all the zombies are pirates here, you're part of Gekkoh Moriah's crew now, like me!"
Chopper felt his eye twitch before a lightbulb went off making him smirk. "Oh yeah? Well let's see if you think this is cute! Heavy Point!" He called as his body began to lose the soft fur as he grew taller, his arms becoming incredibly muscular as he looked like a mix of a deer and a muscular human.
"EEHHH?! That's not cute at all!"
'Yes!' He thought with a smirk before crossing his arms. "See? I told you."
"Turn back right now, I want my cute Shikashi back!" She shouted with a frown. 'Wait, two transformations? The most I've ever seen a zombie do is one, and only on a rare occasion…'
"Sorry, I got stuff to do, by!" He waved before he started running and changed into his Walk Point which picked up speed.
"Oh no you don't! Negative Hollow!" She cried as a ghost flew out of her hand and rapidly caught up with Chopper.
"Not this time!" He jumped over it as the ghost went by and went through a zombie that was going around the corner making it drop down before he bolted down the opposite hall.
"Nooooo! Get back here!" She cried as she began to run after him, sending out more ghosts as she ran. 'Why did I have to be in my regular body today, why couldn't I have been in my hollow one?!' She thought as Chopper kept running away.
'I need to try and lose her somewhere without attracting too much attention.' He thought as he kept running, occasionally passing surprised or confused zombies. 'I need to find the others!'
"I said get back here!"
"Huh?!" Chopper said as he turned his head to see Perona riding on top of a zombie horse with an army of ghosts next to her, making him pale. "Crap!"
"Get back here right now Shikashi! You are in big trouble!" She cried as she pointed at him as her ghosts speeded towards him.
"I'm not Shikashi! I'm Chopper!"
"That name isn't cute at all!" She yelled while two ghosts nearly hit Chopper's back legs. "That's why your new cuter name is Shikashi! Shikashi!"
"No, just leave me alone, I have to find my friends!" He yelled back before jumping and knocking over a suit of armor which tripped up some of the zombies.
"Shikashi, I am losing my patience, get back here to me or else, and change back to your cute form!" Demanded Perona with more ghosts catching up to him.
"No!" He cried as he rounded a corner before seeing it was a dead end and paled. "Oh no!"
"Shikashi! I have you now!" Perona cried as she stopped at the hall. "You can't escape now, you've been a very bad zombie!"
"Um, Perona-sama? I'm pretty sure that's one of the pirates that came here." Spoke up a zombie. "I think I have his wanted poster with me."
"Huh?! Show me." She said as the zombie handed her Chopper's wanted poster.
'Finally! Now she'll know I'm not a zombie! A powerful enemy crew member who commands zombies who I've probably angered now knows I'm her enemy….why am I happy about that?!' Chopper thought as Perona stared at the poster.
"Hmmm." She hummed looking between him and the poster. She kept looking back and forth several times before her eyes widened in shock before she turned her head towards him. "Wait, so you're not a zombie? You're real?" Persona asked as she narrowed her eyes as Chopper started to sweat nervously.
"Well, I DID keep mentioning that." He gulped as he shifted back to his regular form. "So, I'll just go then, could you by chance point me to the exit?" He asked nervously.
She glared at him with the horse snorting. "You tried to trick me, didn't you?"
"Nani?! How? I literally tried telling you, but you didn't listen!"
"But you still stayed, letting me believe that you were a zombie!" She shouted as she got off the horse.
"No, I tried to escape, multiple times!" He cried out with over exaggeration before one of the ghosts went through his body. "I am trash, utter trash, I wish I was a sea barnacle…"
"Well if you're not a zombie, that means you don't have any stitches, or number." She remarked picking him up while having a thoughtful expression.
"I am garbage, I should go bury myself in a landfill…." He groaned in depression.
"Hmm, I could show you to Moriah-sama and he could use your shadow." She said as she tapped her chin as she looked him over. "Or I could take you to Hogback and have him turn you into a new cute zombie for me."
"Sea cucumbers get all the breaks, unlike me…"
"Or….I could keep you as you are now and punish you myself...though I'd have to ask Moriah-sama if it's ok, but if Absalom can have a wife I can have a cute pet too, right?" She smirked making the zombies look at each other confused.
"Um...Mistress Perona, pardon me for asking but...why would you keep him as he is now and not give him to Moriah-sama or Hogback-sama?" A zombie with a koala's face asked in confusion.
"Because he's soft and cute, that's why." She replied in a blunt tone. "So no one tells either of them about him, got it?" She snapped as the others quickly nodded their heads. "I'm going to have some fun with my new cute pet Shikashi, then I'll tell them." she said as she nuzzled him against her face happily before turning around and walking away. "Let's go back to my room, ok Shikashi?"
"It's Chopper." He sweatdropped.
"No, that name still isn't cute, not at all, and you have a lot to answer for mister." She said sternly as she kept cuddling him.
'She says that while rubbing her cheek against my fur.' He thought as she kept walking towards her room, a large smile on her face. 'I just hope I can get away from her soon to go find the others.
When they got there she set him down on the bed, made several ghosts around him, and went to her closet.
"Let me guess, more outfits?" He groaned as he looked around at the ghosts.
"Of course. You only got to wear one after all, and I've got plenty to put on you." She said as she looked through her closet with a grin. "We're gonna have so much fun making you look cute!"
"I doubt it...can you just let me go?"
"No." She said as she walked back towards the bed, her arms full of different clothes. "I want you so you're mine now, you're just too cute to let go or to make into a zombie."
"But I'm a strawhat!"
"Not anymore, now you're my Shikashi, ok? You are cute so you need a cute name, understood?" She frowned before holding up a maid outfit. "This one will be a good choice."
"What? B-but I'm a guy, I'm not wearing that!" He cried with a blush.
"Yes you are, now hold still." She said as she grabbed him with a grin as he tried to struggle. "You're going to look so cute in this!"
'I hope the others are having better luck than I am!'
