A/N: Sorry it's been a while since I've updated! Alli is going to Europe soon for two weeks, and since she's practically a co-author even though she wrote squat, don't have high hopes about updates soon. I might, but its unlikely. Soon after she gets back, she's leaving for college then...but at least she's only about three hours from home so don't worry about lack of updates then too much. Okay, so for now, enjoy. And remember-speaking in italics means they're talking in Japanese! Oh, except for one part where there's a puppet show. The show's in italics, but it shouldn't confuse you. I hope.

"Meat, meat, meat!" Luffy chanted to himself happily. He then stopped and looked around. "How'd I get back here?" He then spotted Zolo and started waving around happily. "Yo, Zolo!" Zolo turned around, not feeling surprised at all to see his captain.

"What is it?" Zolo asked wearily.

"Where's the restaurant?" Luffy demanded to know, a smile still on his face. Zolo was silent for a long time.

"You think I know?" he replied finally.

"Aw, you don't?" Luffy responded with a disappointed tone. "I'm hungry..." He looked at Zolo with sad eyes that made Zolo twitched.

"Fine, let's go. I think I saw a place...this way..."

SOMEWHERE IN TOWN...

"What's my total?" Nami asked the clerk of a clothing store after piling clothes on the counter. The clerk accounted the total quickly. Which is amazing considering how much clothes Nami grabbed...

"Your total comes to 75 thousand," the clerk told her as she put the clothes in a bag. Nami looked at her, both surprised and confused.

"How much did you say?"

"75 thousand. Can you pay?" The clerk responded, narrowing her eyes suspiciously at Nami. Nami couldn't understand anything she was saying, so she decided she'd have to guess how much she meant.

"This much?"

"No, more. It's 75 thousand," the clerk replied, shaking her head. Nami was starting to feel distraught. She almost felt it wasn't worth it, but she wanted that one shirt so bad...

"This much!"

SOMEWHERE ELSE IN TOWN...

Usopp walked into a gizmos shop in complete awe. Everything looked amazing, absolutely amazing. He examined everything excitedly, when suddenly a man popped out of nowhere wearing a strange bright blue jumpsuit and a yellow cape. Usopp stared at him wide eyed.

"Can I help you sir!" the man asked. Usopp kept staring.

"M-m-m-moster!" he cried, now freaking out. He ran out of the shop in tears and fear. The strange man followed him out.

"Sir! SIR! Come back sir!" the man yelled out after him. Usopp started running faster.

"H-h-help me!" he screamed.

AND YET EVEN SOMEWHERE ELSE...(in the same town)

Sanji happily walked down the street, happy now that he'd bought enough sugar and meat to last a lifetime. Or more realistically, a week. But it'd have to do. Since he already had a trap to catch Luffy from the meet, he had then bought a safe to keep the other two out of the sugar. He felt incredibly happy, like nothing could bring him down...

"Say you're sorry!" His attention was immediately up-that sounded like Senka.

"Stop choking me!" That voice he didn't recognize. He started walking a little quicker.

"You're the one choking me!" Hearing that, Sanji turned into a run to hopefully save Senka from whatever horrid person was choking her.

"What are you talking about!" Sanji was almost there...

"You choked my heart, man! My heart!" Sanji stopped confused and wide-mouthed, resulting in his lollipop falling out of his mouth. He saw Senka stuffing some blond guy into a huge bag of candy, and the guy was clutching to a stuffed parrot that was torn at the neck and had stuffing coming out. The guy seemed to have passed out...he probably deserved it.

"What's going on?" he asked, slowly approaching them. Senka completely ignored him and started to attack the passed out guy even more.

"Senka and Elwood are in a fight!" AlliKat said from seemingly nowhere. He then realized AlliKat was painting the ship bright neon colors.

"Usopp's going to be mad," Sanji said after realizing she's already painted more than a quarter of the boat.

"I know," AlliKat replied, putting down her paintbrushes and capping the paint. She straightened herself up and smiled at Sanji. "Shall I explain their fight, Sanji?" Seeing her smile, Sanji could think of one answer.

"Yes, AlliKat!" AlliKat grinned even more and after grabbing a crate to hide behind, pulled out two puppets from her pocket. One looked like Senka and had a small parrot on it's shoulder and the other looked like Elwood. Sanji sat down to watch the show.

"Senka," popped up the little Elwood puppet.

"Elwood," popped the Senka puppet. Everything was silent, until the Senka puppet bobbed up.

"Caaawwwwwww..."

"That was the stuffed parrot. It has a 'push here' sticker. Senka pressed it," AlliKat explained from behind the crate.

"Ah, continue," Sanji nodded, watching intently.

"What the hell was that!" The Elwood puppet was popping very excitedly.

"My parrot. I'm a pirate."

"Real pirates don't have stuffed parrots!"

"It's not stuffed and it's for travel convenience!"

"It's stuffed-" The Elwood puppet ran into the Senka puppet and knocked off the little parrot. "-see!"

"At this point, Elwood had ripped a hole in the neck of the parrot which was indeed stuffed," AlliKat informed Sanji.

"Okay, go on," Sanji nodded, still watching closely.

"Noooooooo!" The Senka puppet threw itself repeatedly at the Elwood puppet.

"Quit it! It was just a stupid plushie!"

"He had feelings too! Plushies have feelings! Didn't Cyrus have feelings when I turned him into a plushie!"

"One, he was a human once. Two, how would you know!"

"I read their minds!"

"How can you read the minds of a plushie!"

"MAGIC! Now say you're sorry!" The Senka puppet was still very persistent and now accidentally knocked off the hair of Elwood puppet.

"Stop choking me!"

"You're choking me!"

"What are you talking about!"

"You choked my heart, man! My heart!" The head of the Elwood puppet popped off and the hair of the Senka puppet started to fall slightly.

"End!" AlliKat shouted, standing up. Sanji clapped and then stood up too.

"You are full of so many talents!" Sanji praised.

MEANWHILE, IN THE WOODS OUTSIDE TOWN...

"Luffy, I think we're lost," Zolo sighed, stopping suddenly.

"How can we be lost? Is there anyone to ask?" Luffy replied, looking around at their surroundings intently.

"We're not even in town anymore!" Zolo yelled.

"Huh? Ah, you're right!"

MEANWHILE, IN TOWN SOMEWHERE...(again!)

"A-a-ahhhhhhhhh!" screamed Usopp, still running through town.

"Usopp?" Nami said, watching Usopp come running. He almost ran past her, but then stopped when he saw her.

"N-N-Nami! It's terrible, there are monsters here...!" he cried. "There was this man in a strange suit and he talked in some other language...!" Nami looked almost as distraught as he did.

"Almost everyone here speaks some weird language...and the few that don't can't translate!" Nami sobbed. "I couldn't buy anything 'cuz I didn't know what she wanted. That shirt was so cool..."

"We should go back to the boat!" Usopp told her hurridly. Nami nodded weakly, still upset that she couldn't buy anything. Usopp raced back to the boat, eager to meet up with everyone else, while Nami just walked on solemnly.

MEANWHILE, SOMEWHERE ON THE ISLAND...

"Look Zolo, a villager!" Luffy exclaimed, pointing to a figure in the middle of a vast field. Luffy ran to it while Zolo followed cautiously. By the time Zolo got there, Luffy looked very upset. "Zolo, he won't tell me where we are..." Zolo stared at the strange figure intently...

"Luffy, I think it's a scarecrow..."

"A what? It doesn't look like a crow...," Luffy replied, looking back at the scarecrow. Luffy then laughed. "But he does look scary! Hahaha!" Zolo suddenly narrowed his eyes as he hear footsteps behind them.

"Don't laugh, I modeled that after myself," came a gruff voice. Luffy and Zolo both turned around to face the man. Luffy then suddenly started grinning wildly.

"Hey Zolo, it's another scary crow!" Luffy laughed.

"IDIOT! HE'S A PERSON!"
