The rest of the crew made their way up towards were Zoro was.

Zoro stood and looked at his crew coming towards him.

" Hey what took you guys so long," said Zoro looking at Robin.

" We just walked normally we never slowled down... perhaprs you went into a different direction that lead here faster, " said Robin smiling.

Zoro shrugged, " maybe... I wasn't really paying attention."

The crew made their way upward and as they did the ground got harder and stiffer.

" Its so hard," said Chopper looking at the ground.

" So," said Ussop shrugging.

" Easy for you to say that you have shoes," said Chopper annoyed.

" Is it bothering you," asked Robin looking at him.

Chopper looked down, " Just a little..."

Suddenly after he said that he felt two strong hands lift him of the ground.

Chopper looked alarmed, " What whats..."

Chopper looked at two of Robin's Hana Hana hands carrying him slowly.

" Is this better," said Robin smiling.

" Yes much better," said Chopper laughing.

Robin payed back her attention at Zoro who had been looking at one of his swords for a very long time.

" Whats wrong," Asked Robin putting her hand on his shoulder.

Zoro looked at her, " I feel something bads going to happen..."

Robin looked at his sword, " You've told me that ever since we landed here,"

" I don't know why... I just know," said Zoro looking at Wadou.

" Are you worried so much about it," Asked Robin.

" I'm worried about you," said Zoro looking at her hard.

Robin looked shocked, " What...what do you mean by that"

Zoro sighed, " Well your wanted pretty badly right? And the marines are here..."

Robin gave a faint smile, " I can take care of them,"

" Maybe... but.." Zoro suddenly held her hard.

" If anything... bad happened to you... I would not know what to do."

Robin looked at him surprised, " Zoro... I will be fine,"

Zoro's emotions were getting the best of him right now, he wouldn't be surprised if he said something dumb like that shitty cook.

" I lost her I won't lose you too," blurted out Zoro.

Zoro stood in shock ... Did I just say that out loud ?

Robin stared at him hard, Her... what does he mean her ?

" Zoro...I will be fine... trust me," she said making their embrace harder.

She looked at her gift ring, " I know I will be fine. Because you'll be there for me,"

Her words make him feel less worried, " Yes... thats true..."

" All that has happened between you and me has been amazing... this much I admit," said Zoro.

Robin smiled, " Yes indeed I will never forget that night that started our bonding,"

" I have no clue what to call it," said Zoro stroking her hair gently.

Robin laid her head on him, " How about Incredible ?"

Zoro smiled at the suggestion, " Sounds about right,"

They were to busy embracing each other that they didn't see everybody was ahead of them.

" Oi you two hurry it up," said Nami from a distance.

They looked at Nami and then they quickly made their way up.

It felt they were going up now which meant they were climbing the mountain.

As Zoro and Robin made their way to the others Robin asked him something.

" Zoro... when you said you lost her you wouldn't lose me too... who did you mean?"

Zoro froze at the question, he knew she was going to ask him sooner or later.

He smiled at her, " Back when I was a little boy I made a living of beating different dojo's masters."

Robin wondered about why he didn't mention his parents, but decided not to ask.

" I went to a small dojo and I asked to face the owner...but instead I faced the owner's daughter...Kuina."

Zoro laughed now remembering those precious moments.

" I of course accepted... and lost." he said smiling.

" I never gave up though I fought her so many times... and yet I couldn't beat her."

Robin looked very interested in this story now.

" I trained harder saying to myself if two swords weren't enough to beat her then three would,"

" But before that. I faced her once again... and uh... once again I lost." he said looking at wadou.

" But that night we made a promise... a promise that one us would be the greatest swordsman or swordswoemen in the world." he said holding wadou.

" But... that promise was kept short... the next day she had an accident... and ended up causing her death."

Robin looked at him, " And was she special to you,"

" Yeah... she was," said Zoro looking at wadou.

" I asked her father for her sword Wadou and I promised to be the best,"

Robin looked down at his sword, " Is that it... the white one,"

Zoro nodded, " Yes this one is it,"

Robin looked amazed, she never thought Zoro would have this kind of a life.

" But I don't worry about her... shes somewhere better, I have learned to rejoice for the fallen," said Zoro smiling.

Robin smiled back, " I hope you do become the best Roronoa Zoro... I'll be there to see it... I promise,"

They finally made their way to the others more confident than ever and there bonding only got stronger.

There was no telling what was in front of them... they would just know... they would be there together...
