Death by Nature

A/N:

Hi guys, sorry I haven't put a story up in a while, I was … busy. Anyway, lets get back to the story; this chapter is gong to be good (as always).

Zoro and Nami sat next to each other cuddled up, sharing their body heat. Nami was shaking and she had no energy. Zoro was basically the same.

It was a week after Zoro had told Nami how much food they had.

Zoro gripped onto Nami and smelt her hair, as he always does. He took in her beautiful scent. Even though they both felt dead inside, Nami's hair was alive and full with energy. Zoro enjoyed the moment, he began to think about what they had done together; their first kiss. Zoro smiled and smelt her hair again; a tear fell from his eye.

We aren't going to make it he thought.

Zoro was out of energy, so was Nami but she was suffering worst, she hadn't had food for almost 5 days, they had managed to get some water from the window, but that had run out recently too, the snow was melting and dripping through tiny gaps in the glass, what worried Zoro the most was the lack of oxygen that they had, both of them couldn't breath very well, and Nami had being repeatedly fainting throughout the last couple of days.

Zoro looked up at the roof of their hut, he began to think long and hard, about when they made it out, if they made it out, then how would they raise their new baby…

He was stopped in his tracks by a noise. He raised an eyebrow and stood up, he frowned and lent against the wall, gasping for air, he had a tiny bit of energy left. A grin appeared across his face.

"Footsteps!" he gasped. Zoro pressed his ear against the wall, the footsteps were becoming louder. Zoro used the rest of his energy and began to shout for help, he banged on the wall rapidly. Finally he fell silent and listened intently. What he heard were footsteps walking away, but it wasn't walking away, it was galloping. Zoro began to cry and collapsed, realising that it was just a deer, or a wolf of some kind, he lay on the floor and breathed heavily, his hopes of getting out alive plummeted.

Zoro lay on the floor holding his knees for warmth. He stared at Nami who was sound asleep, he tried to sit up, but he couldn't, it felt a if one hundred and one Don kreigs were holding him down. Zoro looked at Nami, thinking about how lucky he was to be with her, but how unlucky he was to be with her underneath about one and a half feet on snow. Zoro looked at her face, he began to memorize every feature. He stared at her hair, her beautiful hair, her eyes, the eyes, which make her who she is. He looked down at her mouth, his eyes widened, it wasn't moving! He quickly looked at her chest, that wasn't moving either!

Zoro tried to reach his beloved Nami as she suffocated right in front of him, he shouted her whilst trying to crawl to her. It was no good! Zoro constantly shouted Nami's name as she drifted of to heaven, into the light!

Zoro breathed heavily, looked around the hut and saw in the corner a note, it read…

Zoro

Loves

Nami

…and underneath that he saw…

Nami

Loves

Zoro

Zoro smiled and closed his eyes, to join Nami on her way to heaven…

"Till death do us part" he muttered and closed his eyes.

Three days later:

Luffy and Chopper walked through the woods, Luffy was calling Zoro's name searching for him.

"I wonder where they sheltered through the storm," Chopper said gazing around. Luffy looked at him "I dunno, we split everyone up to find shelter. Robin and Usopp found our ship, you and me found a house where we were treated to cookies and tea…" Luffy licked his lips "…and we don't know were they got to" he says frowning.

"I hope they are all rite" chopper says in a worry.

"LOOK!" Luffy exclaims. He points at a heap of snow. Chopper follows his gaze to see a heap of snow and some wood showing through, it was a hut of some sort. "Zoro and Nami might be in there…" chopper says and runs after Luffy who was already heading in that direction "… I just hope that we aren't too late!" he says sprinting after Luffy.
