Did you guys feel it too? *crying*

Eiichiro Oda- sensei still own One Piece, Hail Oda...~~ \(^o^\)


CURSED or BLESSED [35] : Wedding Mass Mess

"So how come I didn't?" the boisterous noirette added.

"But I still did!" Sabo a little annoyed.

"And that exactly what I… We want to know!" spat Nami hastily.

"Because I'm getting stronger!" Luffy blurt out whatever popping out from inside his mind.

"I… might have an explanation for that…" Robin cut out calmly as she always was.

* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *

"You do?" The fire demon asked. All attention was on her now.

"SUPPP-!" Franky was trying to shout when everybody else agilely jumped on him to shut his mouth. They didn't want to be caught now, did they?

"You hentai jerk! You wanna us to be caught?!" Usopp hissed while trying to cover Franky's mouth so he couldn't continue what he wanna do.

"I will haunt you until I die If they caught us! Ah! I am already died by the way, yohohoho!"

"Suuupppeerr genniiuuusss! That was what I wanna say!" Franky sulked.

"Guys.. guyssss! Calm down already…" Sabo grumbled. Having their time wasted was as good as being caught, was it?

Robin giggled watching their antiques. They might be in a very dangerous situation, but they couldn't stop being silly. Such a way to calm their nerve down. Wonderfull!

"Now… where were we?" Sabo said after everybody manage to control themselves and all attention once more was on Robin.

She smiled her trademark charm opening her mouth, explaining what was her deduction is.

"If I ain't wrong, Luffy and Law were united, weren't they?" She started the explanation with an obvious question. All heads turned to the now blushing noirette and trying to be stoic brunette.

"They were.. yeah, they are." Brook answered for her.

"Now that they are together now, I do think Luffy now has some of Law's power which made him capable of living in this world." She continued, "and I do think that the two has been bind since then, am I right?"

"Bu- but that mean…" Sabo turned his gaze onto his lover."

"W… we haven't bonded yet? Bu- but why?" Ace asked in disbelief.

"What is it the requirement to bond to each other?" Nami asked back, trying to find the answer.

Now everybody is looking to the two that has been bind.

"W-what… Don't look at me. I know nothing." Law chided, while Luffy was blinking in his usual stupid face. Luffy answered their question even not being questioned.

Then silence fell upon them.

"Well…. It's not the time to be searching the right answer about it. We have to do what we have to do right now." Sabo broke the silence.

"I-Indeed… we have to… go save Sanji now…!" Usopp exclaimed trying to regain his courage which has flew the moment Sabo opened his mouth.

"Bu- but… what should we do about this passing out things?" Nami asked.

"Don't worry… I have solution." The watcher said, "But there is limitation."

* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *

"Are you sure about this?"

"Do I have any other options?" the blond said, flat cold, no emotion whatsoever. He fixed the hem of his white suit.

"But… Sanji…-"

"Chopper, we promised not to talk about this anymore, didn't we?"

"We did… b-but is it-"

"Please.. Chopper. Don't make this… any harder-"

"I'm sorry…" the little reindeer sulked while holding back his tears, though couldn't hold back the snot coming out from his nose.

Sanji couldn't help but gave him little pat on his back. He took a tissue then wipe his hanging snot.

"Why do you even sorry? It's not your fault to begin with. C'mon.. cheer up! It's my wedding day."

Still frowning, the little deer wiped the mess on his face then forced a smile on his face.

"That's better." Sanji smiled back.

"Oooii Sannjiii! Are you ready? Don't make your bride wait too long!" came the sound from outside, urging the blond to be ready to face his diminish.

"Well then… this is a goodbye Chopper. It was nice meeting you." He petted the little deer whom he met just some days ago.

"I wish we could spend more time together. And I'm sorry we couldn't find your precious thing."

"Don't be sorry for that. I just have to keep looking for it. And I do hope I could taste your food. I bet you are great!"

"I wish I can make it for-.."

[I wish you can stay… But for your own safety, you have to go, Grey.] suddenly sentence popped up in Sanji's mind from nowhere. [Wh-.. what was that?] he frowned in confusion.

"What happened?" Chopper pulled Sanji's pants to make sure he was alright.

"Ah.. no-nothing."

* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *

"Where have you been?" Ichiji asked when he spotted his older sister. Her lips curved upward, but then she didn't even smile.

"Checking on our little brother." She returned calmly.

"Sit Reiju! It's not a good impression to showing up late! We are the bride's family after all." Judge commanded, with his aura of a leader radiating all over him.

"Family eh?" Yonji repeated then laughed, followed by the other, except Reiju who was only giving out a smile.

[They deserved it.]

* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *

"ARE YOU FUCKIN KIDDING ME?!" Nami's voice was resounding in the air, full of surprise more an anger.

"Do I look like joking to you?" replied the tengu holding on his tears, both in fear and despair.

"Yohohoho! We aree sooooo dooommmm… Ah, though I was doomed long time ago, Yohohoho~~!" Brook and his usual antique.

"I couldn't find him anywhere!" said Sabo panting. Tired wasn't the only reason his breath was uneven.

It was the fact that Zoro, yes… that stupid mosshead, the fucking lost kid was gone without any trace. Ohh… they knew exactly where he was. It was the usual thing…

. !

In other time, they would just laugh it off, but… this time? Oh… this time was very very very bad. This was the worst. It was just like when you notice in front of you was the hades, and you thought you were ready to fight him with your Holy Sword. And said sword vanished. Just like that. Now… what were your options again? Fight? You lost your sword. Run? Impossible don't you think? Do nothing? Congrats!

"Should we look for him?" Franky asked trying to find solution.

"OFCOURSE WE HAVE TO KEEP IT GOING!" Luffy exclaimed. Of course! There was no strategy whatsoever in his head. You couldn't blame him. It was only Luffy being Luffy.

"FINE! WE have no choice except this!" Law intruded.

* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *

"And let the ceremony begin." Announced the MC, giving notice to all the guests. All the guests stood and turned their attention to the huge gate. The songs started to fill the air, singing love themes. Mentioning true and eternal love. Love that you have to cherish, love that you have to share with your beloved one. Love which was pure and filled with joy. Love that made the world even better.

But not for the groom.

It made him want to puke.

It was all bullshit.

What kind of love was there between them? They haven't even met, even for once.

And was this the best for him? NO! this was the best for them, not him!

He didn't want any of these! Anger, hatred, vexation, dejection. The more he felt, the more he wanted to run. He wanted to be back to that stupid group. Sure, they were lousy, fool and disaster, but they were also warm and fulfilling. They were everything Sanji needed. It was everything he ever wanted. Especially that… green stupid wolf!

"And here comes the bride!" Announce the MC.

* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *

"Where the hell is everybody? Did they loss their way again? Tsk! So troublesome…." Zoro scratched his head while frowning. He looked around and decided to open a door on his right, not so far in front of him.

The room was dark. A normal person wouldn't be able to see anything, but he was a werewolf who had a great sight and hearing even in the dark, it wasn't a problem for him.

He peeked inside then look around. Something piqued his interest. Nonchalantly he strolled inside and walked closer to the thing that has been calling him since he opened the door. He looked down over the glass case that protecting the thing.

[Hoo… what a beauty….] He smirked.

* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *

"Oohh… not bad!" Yonji praised when the bride walked down the aisle.

"Well, he couldn't complain about anything anymore, could he?" Niji smirked, stirring the blood in his hand.

"Hmph! Isn't it nice to be him? We did the worked, he got the result." Ichiji said mockingly.

"Hahaha! Indeed, indeed! He should be very grateful for it!" Yonji laughed.

"At long last. That fucker could be used for something for us." Judge said, getting another laughter of agreement from the other, except the pink haired lady who was sitting with them.

[I'm sorry for you little brother] she thought.

The bride was in a ruffled elegant ballroom type pure white wedding gown. Transparent veil was covering her head down to her slender hip. Her usual pigtails hairstyle was now being curled and flowing naturally. She was gorgeous. Most of the people would envy Sanji for marrying such beauty. Yeah.. most of the people, but not everyone, including himself. His heart had been stolen long ago. He had no spare for this lady. He felt terrible but he couldn't do anything. His heart wanted what it wants.

"Now let us start with the ceremony." The MC announced, he was full of spirit, or it was what it seemed.

Because,

These whole things were only a show.

A show to control the power. The world.

"Now here on, we will proceed with the wedding promises." The MC pronounced, "Will you, Charlotte Pudding take Vinsmoke Sanji as your husband, in health and in sickness, in happiness and in sadness, until death separate you apart?"

[Please… don't answer him… I couldn't..] Sanji couldn't help but pleading in his heart.

"I- I do…" but of course, it wouldn't be going as what as he hope for.

"Will you, Vinsmoke Sanji take Charlotte Pudding as your wife, in health and in sickness, in happiness and in sadness, until death separate you apart?

[I CAN'T! OF COURSE I CAN'T! I DON'T EVEN LOVE HER! WHO IS SHE?!] his inner was screaming desperately.

"…- I.. I…" he was stuttering. His mouth tasted sour. His throat dried like desert. He didn't want this. He didn't hope for this. He wouldn't want any of this!

"E-Ehem…" the MC cleared his throat, making Sanji jumped on his spot.

I know you have been running these whole years. I don't even know how many years you distanced yourself but in the same time you keep trying. Why don't you try with us this time? Bet your life with us. Luffy won't let you down. None of us will. Besides, I believe my luck surpass your cursed better.

Suddenly the words buzzed into his mind. It was like an oasis in his deserted heart. They could try to kill his precious found Nakama, but he could try to protect them together! Why didn't he think about this before?!

Sanji found his courage.

One saved, and all will be; One doomed, the other will follow.

Why didn't he remember this… WHY?!

"Vinsmoke Sanji?" the MC called him again, making sure his existence.

The guests were starting to whispering to one another. Sanji frozen state was making the questioning the whole event. Would they be getting married?

"I- " Sanji was trying to open his mouth,

"HE IS MINE!"

A shout. From the door. AN ARROGANT voice.

Everybody in the venue turned their head to source of the voice. All of them, so did Sanji.

His jaw slacked, seeing what he saw. Was it his hallucination? It might be is.

A man with wolf ears, tail was tensing up in rage. His head was green.

Panting, trying to even his breathing. But he was growling. Dangerously.

"A WEREWOLF?!" shrieked one of the guests, starting commotion.

"WHAT THE HELL!?" the other shouted.

"HOW COME HE ENTER OUR SANCTUARY?!"

"INTRUDER!"

"Lightning Essence; STORM!"

Suddenly the room was engulfed in darkness, rain pouring and thunder rumbling. Storm? In a room? You got to be kidding me!

"Kuuhakuka; Nu-rushiba!"

Some Vampires were being disarms. They couldn't move even if they wanted too. Then they felt their power was being suck away.

"I.. I can't move…" one said to another.
"I can't feel anything…" the other said.

"GIVE SANJI BACCKKK!" the noirette shouted.

"Room: KIRU!"

A blue sphere appeared in some space, caging some of the vampires.

"Wh-what is this?! Aa-! AAAAA!
"I- I was cut!"
"WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?! SAVE USSS!"

The caged vampires were being torn apart, bisected into smaller parts, but no blood oozing out.

"Yohohoho~~! Hear me sing! A bright day, what a nice day to rest.. Won't you close your eyes, hiding away from the sunrays. End your day, to start a new one… Yohoho!"

Those whom focus on to the song were suddenly toppled on to the floor, sleeping peacefully.

It wasn't hallucination. It was REAL! THEY WERE REAL!

"WHO THE HELL TOOK HIM AWAY?!" the werewolf roared, pissed off, while slashing the vampires who were attacking him, but all was futile. The werewolf was so agile they couldn't react. Blood sputtered, wailing before collapsed on to the floor.

"Hoii! And now you are on our side! Fight your own, vampires! Muahahaha!" laughed the tengu after he sprinkled some glittery dust to some vampires around him.

"Yees… my lord." They said unconsciously then join the farligenetes to fight their kin.

"What the hell did you do?" Nami asked confused.

"Hahaha! This is my magic! I got a lot of magic I can use! Muwahahahah! Fear me now worthless!" Usopp said pompously and flew away, sprinkling his magic around. Causing ruckus around vampires.

"En Ten; SHOUNETSU!" The fire demon casted his fire, setting up blazes around him.

"HOTT! HOOTT! NOOOOOOO…"
"I'm BURNIIINNGGG! SAVE MEEEE…."
"FFIIREEE! FIIREEEEEE!"

"KAHKAKHAKHAKHA! Now you see how dreadful I am!" Ace laughed slyly.

"You are just cruel, that's that." Sabo commented from his side, catching another vampire who was trying to attack his lover from behind.

"ARKKKKK!" the vampire screeched painfully when his head was being crushed by the Dragon Farlig.

"How strong is that hand…" Ace asked tone laced with fear.

"You want to try?" Sabo smiled brightly, making the fire demon backing up.

"And you were the one who called me cruel." Ace perplexed. Sabo just smirked as a response. "I AM SOOOOO HEAD OVER HELL FOR YOUU!" Ace suddenly jump and hugged the dusty blond head from behind.

"YOU JERK!" and Ace got a rough head chop.

"Aaahhh… rough love indeed."

* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *

"Wh-why the hell you guys are…." Sanji mumbled in awe. He still couldn't believe what he was seeing. Those he thought he had to protect, was now protecting him. Saving his sorry ass. He couldn't hold back his own tears.

"I-idiots..." he murmured in between his sobs and a smile.

* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *

Seconds after Zoro barged into the room, the others were surprising the party from everywhere inside the wedding hall. Luffy, Law and Brook were inside the cake from a night before the party. Nami and Usopp were from the other ornament in the room. Ace and Sabo were blending into the guests.

In perfect harmony, just like in a concert they all helping each other to destroy the party, saving their lost Nakama, Sanji. And of course, Zoro… who was helpless without his soulmate.

* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *

"WHAT THE HELL ARE THESE PESKY FLIES?! Yonji was shouting with rage.

"Less talk, more action. We have to finish them." Niji dashed to his target, an Afro skeleton and the flying… what the hell was that again?

"So, you pick those? Hehehh… I will take them then." Ichiji jeered, decided which target would be his. A dragon eh? Seemed nice to build a reputation.

[So, it won't be as easy as it seemed.] She thought, smiling sadly.

* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *

"Mamammma! What is this all about? Charlotte Linlin asked in confusion.

"It seemed the Vinsmoke had been lying to us." His oldest son answered for her, Charlotte Katakuri. He was one of the strongest fighters in her Royal family, feared by all. "And I have already contacted for backup."

"We won't be needing it. We are more than enough to handle this, perori~n."

"Indeed Anii-ue. What has become of this party? I'm so pissed!" added the other sibling. It was now a lady with a very long leg, Charlotte Smoothie chided.

"Just to take measure, we still need the backup. Right Anii-ue? Even so… how come we didn't smell this human's smell?" Brulee asked, a little concern.

"Make sure they arrive here. There might be one of them who could conceal their smell or existence We have to be very careful." Katakuri answered. He stood tall with his trisula in his hand, ready to rumble.

"MAMAMAMAMAMAA! YES! CHILDREN! SHOW THOSE PESTS WHAT WE GOT! SHOW THEM NO MERCY! KILL THOSE RATS!" Commanded Big Mom in rage. How dare those rats destroying such event, moreover… THE FOOD! SUCH ACTION WAS UNFORGIVEABLE! DESPICABLE!

* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *

"What is that ruckus?" he asked coldly.

"How do I know? I is with you the whole time, isn't I?" She chided with her usual high-pitched voice.

"I know it's a wedding party, is it always this lively?"

"Let me take a look then?"

"Hmph! No need. We are under attack." He said flatly.

"NA-NAAANNIIIII?!" she shouted in surprised.

* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *

"My King, My King!" the black creature flew in hurry to his ruler.

"Nnh… Sto-shtop it… I-…"

"You sure you want me to stop this?" teased the voice above him.

"My KING!" the creature bursting into the room, without knowing the consequences. Poor guy.

While the one who was sprawling on the bed, combusting in embarrass, the other just peeking lazily from behind.

"You do have a dead wish, don't you?" he said flatly. While no emotion laced with in his tone, everybody knew he would be erupting madness in no time.

"Please, please forgive me. But the death surgeon is requesting your presence right away." The creature fell on his knee, trembling in fear and despair.

"….. Fine." His king said with finality and the creature flew away as fast as possible.

"What was that?"

"I don't know. He will pay for interrupting our time!" the King spited vengefully.

"We can continue this later. Come." The other sat up and gave his King a quick kiss and get dress.

"Tsk! You will also pay me for this!"

"Yes, yes… I will be in your serve, for as long as you need me."

"Hmph! How noble." And he received his white shirt with his face.

"One…."

"Okay, okay… no need to be bitter. Khehehe.."

"Two…"

"Fine." He sulked but do as his partner wished him to do.

"That's better." The shorter blond smiled and gave his King another peck. "Off we go then."

* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *

"Are you sure we will reach there on time?" asked the mand behind him.

"We have to!"

"But it was too far…" Added the other fat man who was eating his meat greedily.

"And why exactly we have those dragons?"

"Hmmph, so this is what you said in the urgent time?"

"It is. Now off we go! We have to be there, before the prophecy take its place."

"Yes, my king!" All of them knelt to obey their king.

[… I hope that Nosferath won't do anything too harsh.] he thought deeply.

* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *

"Luffy! LEFT!" Law screamed to notify an incoming attack. It was too late, the attack was so fast, Luffy didn't have time to react. He was being kicked away, crashing into the wall, making debris all around him.

"Uughhh…. That was hurt." Luffy groaned in pain.

"Room; Kussume!" Law launched his attack to their opponent, but the man managed to dodge all the claws that being directed at him. What a speed!"

"Hmph! Is that all you can do?" asked the man, flat and cold. He didn't have any intention to mock nor praise them.

"Who the hell are you?! Why did you bring Sanji with you?!" Luffy roared.

"… I didn't bring that blond. His family did." The man answered.

"So why did you attack us?!"

"Because it was wise. I think the two of you are the strongest around here, aren't you?"

"WE-" Law's hand was already in front of him.

"Yes we are. Are you?" Law taunted the man.

"Hmmh! I am the first commander of Big Mom Family, Charlotte Katakuri. I have to stop all of you."

"You can try, but we won't let you win."

"Fair enough."

* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *

"He- he is so fasssss- KKYYAAAAA!" Usopp was complaining and dodging the incoming attack at the same time.

"Yohoho! This is baaaadd… But I won't lose to vampire! Yohoho!" Brook jumped, dodging the lightning blue, readied his sword.

"Nheeh.. Will you be able to win over me?" Niji grinned, making the wall as his stand and bouncing around the two farligenetes.

"Usssoooppppp:HAMMEEERRR! HAMMEER!" Usopp was throwing some hammers towards the blue man, but all was being dodge like it was nothing.

"Kehh! What a child pl-!" DOONK! A dumbbell hit him on his head.

"NYAHAHAHAH! I did say hammer but not all of them were it! KYAKYAKYAKYAKAY!"

"YOHOHOHOHO! THAT IS ABSOLUTELY NICEEE USOOPPP-SAN!"

"… Now you've done it…." He said trembling with raging madness of humiliation.

* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *

"Ka En; HIDARA!"

Fire was summoned and flying to random direction, burning whatever on their way. Ace was still focusing himself to summon the fire, maintaining them to keep rampaging around.

"I WON'T LET YOU RUN!" With the wing on his back, Sabo was flying after the red guy who suddenly appeared in front of them, interrupting their mission.

Ichiji moved with great speed, kicking the air, trying to keep their distance.

"Hehehehe… I have no intention to run." Suddenly Ichiji turned back and readied his fist, welcoming Sabo who wasn't expecting that.

"GAAAHHH!" Sabo cried in pain when the fist came contact with his abdomen.

"Sparking Red; Burning Fist!"

Followed by an explosion.

"SAAABBOOOO!"

Sabo has been blown away by the wind of explosion, moreover he could feel his abdomen burning in pain. He hissed, trying to hold his conscious.

But, suddenly the Red haired was already above him.

"I am the one who won't let you run. Sparking Red: incineration."

"… Ryu-souk-… ukh…: Hansho- GHAAKK!" The dusty blond tried to use skill to protect himself, trying to avoid direct hit onto himself, seemed it was futile. Either he couldn't gather his strength enough, or the other was too powerful. He choked on his blood and felt blood spurting out from the hole. Dammit! Was it really? This vampire really made a hole on his abdomen? This was gonna be soooo fuckin messed up.

"SABOOOOOOO!" He heard another long shrieked, followed by another painful voice from the red head.

He saw Ace was coming closer, while the red head was nowhere to be found. He smiled to his demon, trying to reach him. But he couldn't. The dragon Farlig was free falling until darkness drowned him away.
