Yay! A nice short chapter: only four pages.

"Argh, Luffy! You can't just barge in there!" Sanji said struggling to hold the angered rubber man with Zoro's help.
"Why not? He has Natsuki!" replied Lufffy.
"If we just crash in there he could shoot her. Do you want that to happen, Luffy?"
"No," he said calming down a bit.
"Ok," Tashigi spoke up. "We're going to have to sneak in than."
"How?" asked Zoro.
"We could climb through a window," suggested Kaya.
Luffy was to impatient. He stretched his arm toward the window and grabbed the seal.
"Luffy, no!" whispered Ussop. "He'll hear you!"
Luffy paid no attention as he tried to see through the old, dirty window on the top floor. As he peered through he saw two figures, one on the bed, one standing. The one standing was tall and skinny while the one sitting was was also skinny, but shorter and more curved. He heard a female voice from the one sitting down.
"Natsuki!" he screamed.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(in the bedroom)
Natsuki looked up, "Daddy?"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Carmen put her face in her hands and grumbled, "No, Luffy."
A large man with dirty (as in dirt) blonde hair burst out of the door for a second time this time shooting uncontrollably. "Damn you bastards!" Butch screamed.
Luffy fell from the window and recorshaded the bullets. "Gum Gum Ballon (I don't care how you hear it in America or Japan, that's basically what he is saying) he repeated over again. Butch looked furstrated (not being able to shoot them and all).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Natsuki and Kyo listed to the rucas going on outside.
"That's my dad!" exclaimed Natsuki excitedly. She looked out the window. A bullet came wizzing past her cheek leaving a small cut trickling blood.
"Get out of the window you Bitch!" yelled Butch.
"What did you call her!" yelled Luffy even more angered (I would be too).
"Dad!"
Another bullet came through the window and she finally retreated. Kyo grabbed her hand. "Come on!" he screamed. "Here's your chance to escape!"
"Ugh..."she grunted as she half ran half being dragged downstairs.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Outside Butch couldn't defeat the sevev crewmates. He ran inside (the house). "Now you're really going ot get it you Sons of a Bitches!" he yelled as he ran up the steps to the room. Noone was there.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Natsuki and Kyo hid behind the corner (wall) as they heard the criminal stomp up the steps yelling. "Come on," whispered Kyo. He opened this apparently hidden opening in the floo (like a basement) and lead her inside. He continued to hold her hand as he took her through the dark room. "Hurry, there's a secret exit down here."
"How do you know of this place?" (Natsuki)
"I use to come down here when Butch dealt with the other kids."
"Dealt with?"
"Raped! Do you have to ask so many questions?"
"Sorry."
They continued until they got to a small hole like passageway.
"It's a sewer line," said Natsuki disgusted
"Come on," repeated Kyo as he started to crawl through. Natsuki followed. "Ok."
It was dirty and, wet and disgusting. She held here breath as she continued through the muck.
"Where does this go?" she asked.
"The forest."
"How do you know?"
"Gosh… I use to come down here to hide from Butch. The second time I ran away, I used this sewer cause he had barred the window."
"Oh."
The heard the door to the secret passageway swing open with a loud clang.
"He knows it's here?" Natsuki said (asked) starting to panic.
"Oh crap! Hurry!" whispered Kyo.
"Come here you little Bachi Mono (monsters)!" Butch screamed as he pursued through the basement.
Natsuki (and Kyo) sped up the paste.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Luffy burst through the door (from outside). "Natsuki!" The rest of the seven crewmates followed. They found the opening in the floor and went inside.
"Butch!" Luffy continued as he ran, infuriated, after the murderer. "Where's Natsukiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!"

Yep, that's all folks. I really enjoy short chapters like that. I had to make it short this time. I'm getting' really tired of 7/8 page chapters. My back, eyes and fingers hurt. And I'm always sleepy from lack of sleep (and jetlag from traveling). This was four pages and I planned a whole lot more! I know there has been a lot of cussing (as I said before) in these chapters with the Natsuki kidnap. I hate doing it but it's the only way I can really show Butch's character. Don't take this wrong, I don't cuss at all myself. I make sure of that. I had planned to get this event done by now, but it (Natsuki kidnap) is almost over: about four more looooong chapters. Then it's on with the next adventure! Whoopie….
