Note from CaptainKuroKlahadore: I do NOT own One Piece, or any of these characters in it! (Unless I put in a made-up, but I'm trying to stick to originals) And do not flame me, lecture me, or simple yell at me over spelling 'Zolo' instead of 'Zoro', I watch the crappy Dub. I wouldn't mind one bit if anyone gave me tips, or ideas for the story, nor would I mind if someone tried to help my writing skillz.

Anyhow, I do think that this story will be 'OK', except learning how to actually MAKE the Chapters and all, that's another story, because this is my first fic. Anyhow, enjoy!

"C'mon, Cap'n, cheer up! You can still get Peace Of Mind!" Django said, trying to cheer up a highly depressed Kuro.
Kuro was silent for a moment, then sighed. "Give---" He started but was cut short as a bullet dug into his left shoulder and sent him into a wall. No, it didn't destroy the wall, but the right side of Kuro's head had busted open, and he had been knocked unconscious.
"Whoops, didn't mean to shoot him." A Marine said, not knowing he had shot Kuro.

Django tensed, then looked at the MArine. He frowned and took off running, leaving Kuro behind.

"H-hey! Get back here!" The Marine shouted, running after Django. Both of them had forgotten about Kuro...

---An hour later---

"Wake up, old man, give us the valubles you have, or die." Some Pirates snapped, talking to Kuro, whom wasn't even awake. One kicked him in the side.

Kuro winced, coming to. "Buzz off." He mumbled.

"We will, if you give us what's valuble that you have, old man." The same one said.

"Why don't you just leave old people alone?" A female demanded and a stick slamed into one Pirate, sending him into the next and so on, there was four, by the way. The yelped, stood, and glared, but scared. They turned, taking off.

"YEs ma'am!" They called.

"Sir, did they hurt you?" The girl asked, walking over to Kuro, not able to see his face since his back was towards her. That girl was Nami. Back about three feet behind her was Usopp, Zolo, and Sanji, Chopper was at her side since he was wounded.

"Ugh, just leave me alone, please?" Kuro siad, his voice a groan rather than a normal voice.

"Sir, you need help, I'm a doctor, I know you do, let me help." Chopper said.

Kuro's expression was sorta confused, but he sighed. "Fine." He siad.

Nami and Chopper smiled, then Nami grabbed Kuro's shoulder gently and tried rolling him over. She gasped at first, seeing who it was, her eyes wide.

"What's wrong, NAmi?" Chopper asked, looking at Kuro, then Nami.

"This man tried killing us all one time." Nami whispered to Chopper.

"You doing alright?" Luffy asked, walking over. He looked emotionless as he looked at Kuro. "Who's he?" He asked. Nami nearly fell over.

"Luffy this is...I don't know." She lied, seeing Luffy clearly didn't remember Kuro.

"Wait, isn't he that evil caretaker from Kaya's mansion?" Luffy asked. Nevermind what Nami had thought.

"Took ya lo---" Nami started.

"IT'S KURO!" Usopp yelped, then turned and went to run.

"Oh no ya don't." Zolo said, reaching over and grabbing Usopp's arm.

"Usopp, calm down! He's wounded too badly to even bother hurting us!" Nami snapped.

Kuro glanced at them frowning some. 'I should've said no.' He thought, trying to sit up.

"Stay down, Mr. You're hurt." Chopper said, holding Kuro down.

Kuro sighed. "Fine." He said reluctantly.

Chopper sat his backpack down next to him, then began to dig through it, then got out medical stuff to help Kuro's wounds.

Kuro was looking off towards one way. 'I wish they hadn't found me, they are my enemy.' He thought.

Usopp was hiding behind Zolo, seeing he knew what Kuro had done, since he had witnessed it.

Luffy fell backwards, asleep, hat covering his face now. He was more bored than sleep.

Kuro tensed up at the sound of luffy hitting the gruond, but he quickly relaxed again. After a few minutes, he sorta lost conscious from having a lack of energy---The next morning---

"...Ugh..." Kuro groaned, coming to again. He rolled over onto his back, since he had been on his left side.
"Hmmm?" He said, lookign aorund. He quickly sat up, but winced some and felt dizzy. He frowned.
"...My glasses." He said quietly, since he just woke up. He reached around, then felt a tbale. He felt a moment, then grabbed his glasses and put them on.

"Much better." He said, then looked around the room. He was on 'a' ship, yes, but what ship? This wasn't the Black Cat Ship, that's for sure.

He pushed the covers that were on his legs, off. He had his pants on, yes...but his jacket, tie, and white shirt were gone, having bandages around his chest and wounded shoulder. He paused a moment, noticing he also had bandages around his head.

"How'd I get here...? Where am I...?" He asked himself, then saw a small note. He grabbed it, seeing it had his name on the front. It read:

Good Morning, Kuro, glad you're up, grab your shirt, and jacket and put it on, and come on above deck, we sat them near the bed so you'd see them if you didn't get the note. - Nami

Kuro looked at a small pile on the floor near the bed, then grabbed his white shirt and slipped it on, buttoning it how he liked it, then grabbed his tie and slipped it on, and then, last, his jacket.

"Wait, my shoes...oh, there they are." He said, seeing his shoes by the door. He got off the bed and quickly walked over to the door, sliipping his shoes on. He still held the note, then slipped it into his pocket and opened the door, walking above deck.

"Well look who's up!" A female's voice said cheerfully.

Kuro tensed a moment, then looked where he heard it from, seeing Nami sitting on the railing with a 'It's a great day to be alive' sort of look. She jumped down from the railing and walked over to Kuro.

"You feeling okay?" She asked.

Kuro raised his eyebrows in confusion, then nodded. "Yes, I'm feeling fine." He said.

Nami smiled. "Well that's good! You hungry?" She asked.

"No, not at all." Kuro siad, shaking his head softly.

"You sure?" Nami asked. BR "Positive." Kuro replied.

Nami nodded. "Alright, if you need anything, jsut ask, alright? You're a guest here, now, Kuro." She said.

Kuro looked positively confused. "Guest?" He repeated.

"Yeah, guest." Nami said. "You'll be staying with us until you're wounds are better." She added.

Kuro smiled slightly and nodded. "Alright." He said. Something about this girl made him extremly calm and happy...not to mention made him feel really strange inside...but he just couldn't name what it was...
