Forgotten Memories
Chapter 6- Nightmare

Since not much had happened over the next few days, Nami ate in the galley every morning with Penguin and Shachi. She really began to like the two. They were both really funny and she found herself laughing a lot around them. The navigator learnt very quickly that they both womanizers, though still not as bad as Sanji. Shachi told her news on what was going on in the world, while Penguin would interrupt with some joke he thought was funny. They made Nami feel comfortable and she was grateful for that.

After breakfast, Nami would take a stroll around the sub, since there wasn't much else for her to do. All she had been told to do was eat and sleep. Nami hadn't seen Law much since he let her get some fresh air, she mostly saw the Heart captain at dinner in the galley(which wasn't much). Shachi explained that he was trying to find a way to get her memories back, while other members of the crew were trying the locate the man who caused the mess in the first place... Though it wasn't going well since they didn't have much to go on.

Nami had finally moved out of the infirmary and back into what was her old room. It had maps for different islands and map drawing equipment. Bepo would stop by at night to check on her and chat for a while. The orange-head really liked the bear and found that he was sensitive about his appearance and would apologized profusely to her, which Nami found funny.

"Do you mind if I sit here? " Nami asked, as she had been having a hard time getting some sleep, the navigator decided to take a walk to try and clear her head, ending up in the control room.

Bart looked at her for a moment. "Go ahead."

"Thanks." Nami said, as she took one of the available seats neat the controls. Silence washed over the two pirates, though it wasn't awkward. It felt right, even a bit familiar. The navigator found it calming to look out of the window into the deep ocean - it looked like another world underwater. It wasn't long before Nami drifted off to sleep.

"Bart any-" The Heart captain trailed off once he noticed a sleeping Nami.

"She came up a while ago." Bart answered the unspoken question.

"Things don't change." Law said with a smirk appearing on his face.

"I suppose not." Replied Bart.

Without a word, Law picked Nami up bridal style and brought her back to bed.

Nami shot up in her bed, she was breathing heavily and was covered in sweat. It was one of those nightmares about Arlong. The fishman captain had given her a task to do and she failed. Arlong had been so furious at her, he struck her. The pain was unbearable but Nami didn't show Arlong her tears - she wouldn't give him the satisfaction.

Nami headed to the bathroom and threw some cold water against her face. It would still take Nami a while to get used to seeing herself in the mirror. Her orange hair now passed her shoulders and she looked older.

Needing a drink, Nami headed down to the galley.

When she entered the galley, she noticed she wasn't alone. Trafalgar Law was seated by the table drinking coffee.

The Heart captain looked up and said, "you should be sleeping." It became noticeable to Nami how tired the captain was, he had dark circles under his eyes. Nami was surprised to see him without his hat.

"Just a nightmare," mumbled Nami. She really didn't want to talk about it, she hated those dreams. The nightmares always made her relive the worse times in her life before Luffy saved her.

"Arlong?" The captain questioned.

Nami stared at him wide-eyed. "How did you know?"

"You told me about your nightmares before." Law answered simply. "You okay?"

All Nami could do was nod her head, having been too shocked to form words. She hadn't even told her nakama about those nightmares, so why him? That didn't make any sense.
