Jennifer stood at the balcony watching he leave " Pirate ship? He's a Pirate?" She questions outloud as she watches him run towards the ballroom enterance. She tilts her head to the side and wonders why he is going there.
Zoro rushes to the ballroom entrace to retrive Wadou Ichimonyi, Sungdai Kitetsu, and Yubashiri. He manages to take them under the Marines knowledge and runs back to the ship. He sneaks onto the ship so he wouldnt have to deal with questions about where he's been. He walks over to the trapdoor that leads to the men's quarters. He opens it and climbs down, shutting it. He smiles when he sees that all of them seem to be asleep asleep and lays down in his hamock. About 20 seconds later, He sees a dim light through his eyelids and opens his eyes to see Sanji and Ussop looking over him smiling evily " hn? why are you guys looking at me like that?" Usopp had a flashlight in his hand " why were you out so late?" Zoro grunts and closes his eyes once more " I went out to challenge Mihawk..." Usopp snikers as Sanji exclaims " did you kiss him or something?" Zoro's eyes open wide and he furrows his brow " what the hell is that supposed to mean?!" Sanji smirks and then points to Zoro's lips " because you have a red lipstick smudge on you lip and some on you chin..." Zoro's eyes open wide ' damnit!' he says as he wipes his face with his sleeve and Sanji pinches his cheek " has our lil Zoro discovered girls?" He says a few seconds before Zoro's Fist flys at him and ends up knocking Sanji out cold. Usopp was dancing around singing "Zoro's got a giii" He stops when he sees Sanji out cold on the ground and bolted out of the room at a blinding speed. Zoro lays back down on his hammock and sleeps for the night.
Morning came and Jennifer was brushing out her hair at her vanity set when a tap came to her balcony window. She walks to it and opens the glass doors. Zoro stands there with his bandana on his head. He takes her in his arms and kisses her passionatly. " I cannot stay long, Jenn.." Jennifer looks up at him " you didnt tell me you were a pirate..." Zoro looks a bit dumbfounded and then realizes what he said last night. " yea...i forgot to mention that, anyways can you tell me where the vineyard is?" Jennifer points off to the east were a vineyard is easily seen from their view "that way...its not that hard to miss" Zoro smiles and then kisses her once more " i have to go now, I'll come back if i can, if i do, i might be bloody and injured, but i have to fulfil a promise to an old friend..." He climbs down the Rose vines once more and runs off in the direction of the vineyard. Jennifer remembers something important " Zo.......!" But he was already to far. '' Damn....he sure is fast, i have to tell him about my children...'' She mumbles to herself as she walks back inside of her room. ' hold up a minute!? bloody and injured? what the hell is he going to do at that vineyard!?'
Zoro walks through the vineyard searching for his opponet. The air was filled with the smell of grapes as he treads further down the rows, muttering " where the hell is he?" Walking down the rows of grapes, He comes to the middle of the Vineyard where a fountain was built and sitting on a concrete bench was Mihawk. "So you finally found your way here young swordsman" Zoro grits his teeth and unsheaths wadou. " you didnt tell me where in the vineyard..." Mihawk stands and reaches his hand behind his head to crasp onto the large, black, cross-like sword. Zoro place wadou in his teeth and then unsheaths his cursed swords. Mihawk smiles " ready young swordsman?" Zoro smirks " as ready as i will ever be...." Mihawk charges and Zoro charges with his OniGiri attack, but instead of peforming two horizontal slashes at the same time; Zoro keeps them crossed and blocks Mihawk's attack. They push off and end up a few yard away from eachother " You have indeed got stronger these past three years.." Mihawk exclaims before charging once more. The clinking of swords was heard throughout the vineyard. Zoro has managed to lay a few minor cuts on Mihawk's chest, arms, and one on his face. Zoro on the other hand...has a large gash on his shoulder. The battle rages on for the longest time, both men giving their best. Zoro, refusing to loose and Mihawk defending his postion as the world's greatest swordsman. The noon sun beating down on the two men as they duel. Zoro performs Sanzen Sekai as Mihawk charges. Juraquille lays a gash upon Zoro's Side. Zoro holds his side and the memory of the night he made the promise to Kuina flashes before his eyes. He closes his eyes tight and stands up. Turning around, Zoro opens his eyes. A fierce look upon his face, determining why he is called a demon in battle. Any normal swordsman would cower in fear if this look was cast upon them, But Juraquille 'Hawk eyes' Mihawk was no ordinary swordsman. Mihawk stands there waiting for Zoro's attack. Zoro outstreches his arms and performs TatsuMaki. Mihawk ends up flying in the air and landings on his back. " Pretty good young man...." Mihawk says when he tries to get up. But Zoro is already there...with Sungdai Kitetsu behind Mihawk's neck and Yubashiri in front of it, about to perform Gazami Dori. Mihawk looks at the blades and then to the swordsman's face " I knew you would someday defeat me...you now inherit my title as the Worlds Greatest Swordsman..." Zoro removes his swords from Mihawk's Neck. Mihawk stands up and takes a small bow. " I know the mistake i made in battle...you have heart, swordsman, and that is what will make you stronger...." Mihawk picks up his sword and places it back in its original postion on his back. Zoro sheather his cursed blades and then takes the Wadou Ichimonyi out of his mouth. Mihawk stands there facing him as Zoro slices a large deep gash from Mihawk's right shoulder down to his left hip. " A scar opposite of the one you gave me...a way to remember how you were defeated" Mihawk bleeds heavily and takes off his coat. He wraps it around him and usues it for a bandage untill he can get back to his boat. Zoro fells light hearted in a way. After so many years....he has fulfilled his promise to Kuina. Mihawk turns "Goodbye Roronoa Zoro...go tell your tell your woman about your victory." Zoro looks at him oddly " how did you?" Mihawk turns his head " you have a lipstick smudge on your chin..." He says as he disapears among the rows of the vineyard. Zoro walks over to the fountain. He indeed have another lipstick smudge on his chin and a small part of his lip. He cooled his face in water of the fountain and washed off the lipstick smudge. He sheathes wadou and walks out of the vineyard.
Walking upon the GOING MERRY, the crew look at the battered and bloody swordsman. " Zoro what happened to you!?" came Chopper's voice. Zoro stops beside the mast " I beat him...Hawk Eyes Mihawk is no longer the worlds greatest swordsman..." Zoro says smiling as he disappears through the trapdoor. Zoro bandages himself and changes into his skypiea shirt. He removes his bandana from his head and wraps it around his left bicep. He emerges from the men's quarters and starts to head of the ship. Sanji smirks and loudly says " where ya going Zoro? gonna go see your new lil girlfriend?" Usopp snickered and everyone just stared at Zoro. Zoro turned around and looks at Sanji. He bluntly says " Yeah, I am, But at least i can get a Girlfriend and NOT waste hours of my life trying to woo a girl when she was only taking advantage of me and never realizing that she will never love me!" He says while walking off of the ship and heading in the direction of the village. Sanji fumed as Usopp started to laugh. Usopp's laughter didn't last for long when Sanji gave him a swift kick to the head.
Jennifer takes a deep breathe and plays the music piece out once more. She could play so many instruments, since her sister stuck her on piano, clarinet, trumpet, percussion, violin, and flute to culture Jennifer, but she hasnt practiced the flute in a couple of months. She plays a piece called 'FINALE FROM THE FIREBIRD SUITE' by: Igor Stravinsky. Jennifer continues to play until a pair of Strong arms wrap around her waist " Jenn, i didnt know you were a musician! " Zoro exclaimed as he kisses her neck. Jennifer relaxes " god zoro, you scared the hell out of me!'' She places her flute down on the nearest table and lays her head on Zoros chest. "Zoro...." Zoro kisses her neck as she speaks " Zoro, im a..." Zoro blows in her ear affectionatly and whispers " your what?" Jennifer turns her head to look at him " A mother.." Zoro looks at her funny. " you....you have a child?" Jennifer walks out of his arms " i have children....2 boys and a little girl..My husband was killed in a war when my twins were only a month old..." Jennifer looks down facing away from Zoro. He was dumbstruck until he smiles " why are you telling me this now?" Jennifer turns, but her head was hung low. " i was going to tell you this morning...but you were already gone before it crossed my mind. " Zoro walks over to her and places his hand on her shoulder " that may be when you were going to tell me...but it isnt why you are telling me..." Jennifer looks up at him " because, I love you, Roronoa Zoro...and i didnt want us getting too far without your knowledge of my children...." Zoro lifts Jennifer's chin and stares into her eyes " so when do i get to meet them?" Jennifer's eyes open wide " you mean...you wont leave me because of them?" Zoro leans his forehead against hers " now why would i do that...I love you too, Jenn and thats why im not leaving you behind...Luffy has alwasy wanted a musician on the ship and if Sanji doesnt mind having 4 more mouths to feed, Im going to take you and your children along." Jennifer smiles brightly and hugs Zoro's neck, kissing him passionatly. Zoro returns her kiss and rubs her back. Jennifer breaks the kiss " wait here, I'll go get them!" She hurries out of the room and shuts the door. Zoro stands there for a short while with a blank expression on his face as she leaves the room.
Meanwhile, Back on the GOING MERRY. Sanji grumbles as he prepares the dinner for the night. Thinking about what Zoro said. Nami looks at Luffy " you think Zoro will leave us for this girl...i mean if he really loves her.." Luffy looks at Nami " Zoro wont leave the crew...he wouldve told us if he was going too.." Luffy for once said seriously. BOOOOOM A loud explosion came from the stern. Luffy and Nami hurry outside to see if Usopp destroyed anything with that explosion only to discover him stand there completly still with his hair straigthened out behind him and him looking like he had just come out of a pile of coal. Nami walks downstairs and then returns with a bucket of water, a mop and a rag. She hands all of them to Usopp " since you made the mess...you clean it up!" She says while walking down the steps and going back inside of the lounge followed by luffy. Usopp looks up to the sky with the mop in his hands. mouthing the words 'why me'. He then starts to clean up the ship. Chopper sneaks over and helps Usopp.
Zoro sat there with on Jennifer's bed playing with two little boys. The oldest has Scraggly dark brown hair and barbarian like solid blue eyes. The other had Dark Brown hair and Green eyes, but he looked more like Jennifer than the other. Jennifer was next to him with a little girl with the same Dark brown hair, and Green eyes like smaller boy. Zoro sits there telling stories and tickling the young boys. Zoro looks at Jennifer and smiles " so this one is Katrek?" he says while pointing to the older boy with scraggly hair. " And this one is Jeh'don or better known as JD?" he says while pointing to the younger boy. Jennifer nods and Zoro points to the little girl on Jennifer's lap " and thats Alice? right?" Jennifer smiles " uh-huh..." Alice yawns and shifts on Jennifer's lap to where she could sleep. Jennifer picks her up and lays her down on the bed, kissing her daughters forehead. Zoro looks down at the two in his arms. Their eyes were drooping a little. Zoro lays them next to Alice. Jennifer places kisses on her sons' foreheads and then leans against Zoro's shoulder. Zoro leans down and kisses Jennifer where her jaw meets her earlobe. Jennifer smiles " should we go public or keep dating behind my family's backs?" Zoro chuckles a bit and then rubs her shoulder. "well the crew already knows....why not your family?" Jennifer looks down " they wouldnt aprove and try to seperate us..." Zoro cups her chin in his hand and looks at her " let them try...im going to go back to the ship to see if they will accpt you into the crew... when i leave, i want you to tell your family everything...but dont tell them that i will come back...wiether they accept our love or not...i will take you and your children with me..To help Luffy Find One Piece and become Pirate King. pack katrek's things, and then Alice's the next night, and then JD's The next...the last night, i'll come for you and your things.." Jennifer nods and then kisses him passionatly. Zoro kisses back and then walks to the balcony. He climbs down and then hurries back to the GOING MERRY.
A/N: AS i said...i suck at Fight scenes, The reason i made Zoro win his battle against Mihawk was b/c other fanfic i read wiht that sort of thing, he would loose. so why not a change? i wanted to do something just a lil bit new...
