one hour later

you felt someone shaking you. You fluttered open your eyes and said "ow".

"I'm sorry Nami-Chan "said Robin."What is it?" you asked. "Look at this!" she stammered. She held out a paper you grabbed it and she went over to the window and looked out. You read the paper it was a flyer for the miss. Piratical pageant.

"Holy Shit!"you said as you sprang out of bed. "OW!". "Sit down"said Robin .She dropped her voice "what are we to do Nami-Chan? You can't enter with a bad ankle and we need the money to make repairs on the ship and that map will come in awful handy". "You should enter than" you replied. "I can't I would need you to help me "she said looking at you."sighwhat are we to do. We need that money and that map! Is there no other way to enter?" you said as you sighed deeply.

It had been a dream of yours to enter this pageant. "CHAROLETTE!"You both said at the same time. "She's our last hope!" you said. "Will have to do a complete makeover but how on earth are we going to get that little tomboy to agree?" She asked.

"I have my ways" you said with an evil little smile.

"Well we need to sign her up by tonight and get her ready in a week." said Robin as she read the paper. This is going to be a long week" you said. "Let's go tell the crew" said Robin "I'll go get them".

You laughed to your self as you pictured charlotte in heels. Robin came down the stairs into your room with Zolo, Sanji, Chopper and Usopp. She shut the door behind all of them.

"Where's Luffy?"You asked. "Sleeping on deck along with Charolette"replied Zolo as he sat in a chair. "What's wrong Nami-San? Would you like me to fluff your pillow? Perhaps something to eat?" asked Sanji. "No! No! Look at this!" you said handing Sanji the paper.

"Holy Shit!"He shouted. "Yeah"you said angrily. He handed the paper to Zolo, Usopp read it over his shoulder and Chopper tried to read it. "Holy Shit!"Exclaimed Zolo. "I know I know" you said.

"What are we going to do?" asked Usopp. "We can enter Robin-san she's lovely enough" said Sanji. "No!" you both said at the same time. "Were entering Charolette!"You said at the same time again.

"WHAT?"They said at the same time. "We have a whole week to turn her into a girl" said Robin. "And I think it's do-able" you said.

The guys looked a t each other and laughed. "hahahaThere's no way you can get Chikako to agree!" said Zolo through loud fits of laughter. (Chikako is Charlottes nickname used by the boys with the exception of Luffy who calls her Charlie.) "hahahahahahahaher her talent can be picking a fight!" said Usopp.

"Just for that you guys can't see her until after we turn her into a girl" You snapped. The boys just laughed. "You guys better not tell her "said Robin. They laughed. "Okay you guys go get her" you said. So they got up and went on deck.

"OW!"You heard. A few minutes later your door opened Charlotte walked in rubbing he side. "Yes Nami-San?"She asked bowing politely.

"Sit and read this...Tell me what you think" you said as you held out the paper. She took it from your hand and sat in the chair. "WOW! Um...a beauty pajgent?"She said not knowing what else to say. "Yes...and you are entering it" said Robin.

"What!" she said trying not to raise her voice. "You said if I ever need you to do anything for me you will" you said as you folded your arms across your chest. "Yeah anything SANE is what I said..!But this is insane!" she snapped. Robin put a pair of hands around her neck. She broke free of there grip.

Robin's arms appeared and pushed Charlotte to the wall. She squirmed and tried to get free. Robin walked up to her and slapped her across the face ( . Bitch slap!). "Listen you either enter this contest or you quit Luffy's crew" she said as a hand squished her cheeks in making her have fish lips. Charlotte's eyes fell to the floor and she looked rather depressed and sad now. Robin let her go and she slumped to the ground. It was quiet; your eyes full of hatred along with Robins fell upon her slump figure.

"Fine, I'll do it" she said in a low voice. She got up from the floor and left your room.

"Yes! Yes! Were in!" you said as Robin hugged you. "Were going to win!" she said. It was four o'clock. Robin helped you up the stairs.

"Hey Nami is that the place?" Asked Chopper. Sure enough there was the island/Boat. "Were almost there" you said to your self. "Yeah it is Chopper" you said to him.

Luffy woke up and started flipping out like the way her dose when someone take's his hat and he can't find it."Hey have you guys seen Charlie!" he asked loudly. "No we haven't "answered Robin for you. He started to get panicky. "Did you check down stairs?" suggested Zolo. "Right!" he said as he sprinted down stairs.

"Where was Luffy off to in such a hurry? Asked Usopp. "He went to find Charolette"you said. "Speaking of Chikako...Did you gather to agree?''Asked Zolo. "Yes" you said. "With some persuading she did" Finished Robin.

He nodded and went on to the deck.

Laughter filled your ears; you looked down towards the stairs door. Luffy had found Charlotte and he was making her laugh. You looked at her. "Were almost there" you said so she could hear you. She nodded and leaned against the railing near the bow where Luffy sat.

She was talking to him but her words were out of your reach.

The boat hit the shore. "Let's go" said Robin to Charlotte "Luffy you need to come too". Luffy and Charlotte both jumped off the boat while Robin climbed down the latter. You watched as they walked until you couldn't see them anymore.

"Nami-San it's time for dinner" said Sanji. ''Alright!'' you said as chopper helped you to the kitchen.

Robins POVyou walked ahead of Luffy and Charlotte. You found the booth and you were surprised that there wasn't a crowd. You went up to the booth with the two of them.

"Looking to enter missy?" asked the lady. "No my friend is "you said as you signed some papers.

She looked at Charlotte and then started laughing. "She would do a better job in a dog show!" said the lady. You bit your lip to keep from laughing.

You heard luffys knuckles crack. "Uh...you need to sign this" she said handing Charlotte a clipboard. She filled it out quickly then handed it back. The lady skimmed it. "Good" she said

"now your captain needs to sign here "she said pointing on the clipboard luffy signed his full name."Here, here and finally here" she said as Luffy followed her commands.

"Alright...Charlotte is it? See you in a week" she said to her. "Thanks" you said to the lady.

"Come on let's go back to the boat and eat!" said Luffy. You walked ahead of them once again. You reached the boat Luffy had rocketed himself and Charlotte on board laughter then followed the rocketing; you climbed on board.

Luffy and Charlotte laid on the ground laughing up a storm. You couldn't help but to smile.

"come on Luffy let's go get something to eat" said Charlotte as she got up and headed to the kitchen.

"Yeah!"Said Luffy as he got up and ran to the kitchen. You followed them up to the kitchen.

Nami's POV

luffy burst into the kitchen."I'm hungry!" he said loudly.

Charlotte followed in after him. She grabbed an apple. "I'm going to bed" she said as Robin walked in. Charlotte walked out.

"She's signed up" Robin said to you. "Signed up for what?" asked Luffy as he ate.

You all fell over Anime style. "The beauty pageant. You should know Luffy you were there when she signed up" said Robin.

"Oh! That's what we were doing?" he asked. You all fell over again.

"Your and Idiot with a capital I!" you snapped at him.

down Stairs

she lay on her bed and stared up at the ceiling. The uneaten apple on the nightstand by her bed. It got dark quickly. She thought of what that lady had said earlier and it was pretty true.

She turned on her side. "What do I REALLY want?" she asked her self as she stared off into the darkness. "To be beautiful" she whispered as she fell into a dreamless sleep.
