6. Coma patient and vodka coffee
AN: Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me thrice, and you will know what it's to born again. I had a mean strike, read: insane, in this week. At first I started to think ways how Rose would kill and when my friend showed me cup song, I bursted in laughter as I saw Rose doing cup song with knifes and people's heads. Then I started to sing something like: If you have been once crazy, you will always be crazy. There is no cure, no antidote to madness. And tugged, quite hard it seems, her hair. Then I almost scratched her. Later on day, I joked about how my biology teacher would 'accidentally' fall on stairs and die. Call me crazy or stupid, I haven't still found anything that I good at and I'm cool with it. (That was a lie...) Anyways, I don't own One Piece or anything that my subconciece might put in here. Love, Rose!

Kid had just upturned whole boat in his mad search for girl thief and was now breathing heavily, leaning on wall next to him. Men behind him moaned and groaned, whining about bruises and broken bones their captain had made on them. Killer was flat against wall, only places where you would be somewhat safe from hurricane.
"Wow, you really are strong!" Kid's, and others, head snapped towards roof over red haired teen. Rose was happily sitting there, eating lollipop as she looked amusedly at destruction. "You!" Kid pointed at her, starting to get angry again. She smirked and took lollipop out from her mouth with loud 'pop!' before leaned closer on angry teen.
"Aww, didn't you like it?" His eye twitched as his mind replayed the kiss. "No, I didn't." He scowled at her, which was welcomed with happy grin, whose owner was closer than she was second ago."Well then answer this, why you didn't push me away right away?" He opened his mouth to answer, but closed it as he couldn't think any response to question.
She chuckled at his look of thinking, which granted her a scowl from him, before answering her own question. "I can give you an answer why you didn't punch my face. In deep on your mind, you recognized me as potential mate and sent electric impulses to your brain, don't let her go. Your body reacted like it should, that is dominating me, and tested how submissive I can be. It was only after your memory part of brain recognized you were kissing me, did you grow disgusted and horrified seeing you went against your promise, am I right?"
She was now nose-to-nose with him, her eyes glinting with enjoyment as his own with understands, before changed to anger again. "You are lying." Hurt flashed quickly in her eyes but was overthroned with amusement.
"Belive it or not, I don't care. What I care is what are you going to do with me." He blinked at sudden change of subject, but kept quiet. "I was teached in my youth that if you kiss someone and thought they will become your family or are your family, but they reject it, they can do whatever they want to do with you. Of course if your parents tell me I'm free to go, this deal is broken and I will leave without another question." She shrugged after explanation. "Think me as your slave until your parents tell otherways."
He looked blankly at her before snorted. Snort turned to chuckle, chuckle turned to dry laughter before finally he was full blown laughing. Other, read: injured crew, almost jumped up at sudden noise, but hissed and went back to ground as pain came back. Rose kept her grin on her face, not minding that her master was laughing at her seriousness.
Kid laughed for few minutes until he slowly stopped, optioning to chuckle as he spoke. "That was a good one. What are you, a comedian?"
She frowned at question, but replaced it quickly with gentle smile. "I told you the truth, now it's your decision if you belive or not. But hear me out, I'm what you desire, either consciously or subconsciously. If you want me to be dead, then I shall die. If you want me to be gone, you will not see me even if you search for me. I will follow you until you get bored with me, till then I will serve you with passion and love, master."
She spoke quietly so normally other people couldn't hear it but seeing everyone was listening their conservation, they heard her clearly. Even if she was quieter than usually, all heard the emotions on her voice, adoration and love on her master, passion of her beliefs and absolute trust in her words. What others couldn't see were her eyes. They were filled with hopefulness, for him to accept her, fear, that he rejects her, and emotion that made Kid curious, was understanded sadness, like she knew he was going to tell fuck off.
When silence continued about half a minute and she didn't got any reply, her head dropped, her hair shadowed her other eye too, said "If that's what you desire, master." and started to shuffle her feet away from him. He blinked, as did others, when she went to boat on the side and knocked to wood. "Fang, we are leaving." She said in broken tone, her voice cracking at word 'leaving'.
Childlike face with silver hair peaked under cover, squinted her eyes in worry before nobbed, small sad smile coming to her lips. Rest of girl climbed out from boat, plopped on Rose's side and laid a hand on her shoulders. They walked in silence, men on floor, Kid nor Killer daring to say anything, until they reached railing where another, smaller boat resided.
Fang climbed on board and was reaching for her companions hand, but she shaked her head, said "No. I'm not coming with you, not anymore..." before she backed away from her friend. Fang looked confusingly at Rose, as did others on ship, until Fang saw what she mumbled. "... if you want me to be dead, I shall kill myself, master..." She grow horrified at words and even more horrified as Rose started to run towards railing, already guessing what her intension is.
Jumping out from boat, she tried to reach Rose who was twenty meters away from end of ship, shouting to her. "No, Rose!" She arrived in front of depressed girl, thinking she would stop, but she kept going, either not seeing her or not minding her. Fang closed her eyes, fearing for pain that was sure to come, but when she heard swish and air over her gaining presence her eyes immediately snapped open to see her sister in air, legs indicating she had jumped over her. She turned fully around and gripped railing tightly as she watched with watering eyes as Rose dropped on water, shouting on top of her lungs. "Rose, nooo!"
She turned to look at frozen Killer, surprised men and confused Kid, yelling. "Help! Someone of you must help me!" Kid, getting more confused by second, asked. "Why?" Her tears started to roll down on her cheeks as she said four words that made Kid understand the situations seriousness. "She had ate a Devil-fruit."
It was like somebody had pushed 'play' button, seeing once injured men jumped on their feet and went around, who looking for towel, who for doctor, but to Fang it was all in blur.
She heard shouts that went all over the ship, but her mind didn't register them.
She heard men around her fuss about lowering a boat, to be yelled at Kid for it taking too long.
She didn't lift her gaze as he sent men to dive for her, her eyes staying at spot where she last saw Rose. Tears streamed on her cheeks and wind messed with her hair but she didn't care.
She stayed frozen at spot, gripping railing so hard it broke in her grasp. Some man noticed her now bleeding hands and tried to move her from her place. She didn't say anything back to him, still looking with wide eyes at dark water that had gulped Rose. Man, seeing her vacant look, gently took hold of her shoulders and guided her to chair who others had put after seeing her state.
Doctor came and put her hands in bandage after taking most of sticks away, but went quickly away after shouts of "We found her! She isn't breathing!" reached to his ears.
Men on ship and on water pushed her body onboard and Fang almost cried again as she saw her limp body.
Her skin, once so healthy looking, was now tinted with blue and purple.
Her hair was, for once, staying at one place cleanly but Fang hopped it would come back to its vibrant colors and style.
But the thing that made her almost go to Rose and shake her heavily, was vacant look on her eyes. No amusement, no michivieousness, no small but noticeable glint of sadness, nothing. "Rose..." She whimpered as she saw how doctor bustled over unresponsive female and started to shout orders to men around him.
They carried her away, her hand laying limply on her side as she was put gently on stretches. Doctor came over her, giving her mouth-to-mouth until she breathed somewhat on her own before covered her nose and mouth with air mask.
Doctor asked for some privacy and they carried her away to cabin where he would put a plastic tube to her lungs, hoping it would take away rest of water in there.
Fang didn't move from her chair the whole Rose was operated. She kept staring at door where doctor had taken Rose even when doctor himself returned. He went straight to Kid and talked with him for awhile until walked away, maybe to take some pills to his headache that was apperantly starting, if those hands over his head meant something.
Kid lost his mournful look as doctor talked to him, he actually smiled little after it!, but sighed and ran hand on his head as doctor walked away. He decided to tell Fang the news, but seeing in what kinda state she was, he slided his job on Heat.
"Fang-chan..." She didn't turn around to look at him, her grip of chair was so hard, her knuckles were white.
He laid a hand on her shoulders and tried to say something but she beat him. "How is she?" He closed his open mouth, weighting options in his head until came to decision. "You better see yourself..." She didn't move for a moment, but stood up slowly, face blank, eyes no emotion giving, like Rose's eyes were when she was lifted from water. Heat tried to help her with taking her backpack, but before he could even touch it, Fang took it from her back to hug it and growled at him. He kept wisely his hands off from her luggage.
They went through door and Fang suddenly felt tears start again to form in her eyes. Rose was in bed, breathing mask taking half of her face, tubes running all over her body as she had least ten needles pushed to her arms and chest. Her eyes were closed, indicating she was sleeping, which Fang was thankful for. There was a chair on both of her side and they took seat, Fang on her right, Heat on her left. Fang took her hand and gripped it hard, believing if she let go Rose would leave. "Neechan has slight concussion and water in her lungs, nothing that will become dangerous if treated rightly." Heat spoke, sadness in his voice oblivious.
Fang tried to keep tears in her eyes, but they still escaped, landing softly on mattress and limp hand. Heat, understanding she needed some alone time with Rose, said quietly "I'm just outside of door, so yell if you need something." and walked away from room.
Fang stayed silent until she heard door click closed when she really started to mourn over her sister. She cried for about ten minutes, after that her tears seemed to run out. She was silent for awhile, content in petting hand as she tried to get her weak voice chords to work.
"Why..." She suddenly punched at matrees, body in it jumping in sync with it. "Why did you have to be such idiot?" She gritted her teeth, tears threating to appear again, but she tightly closed her eyes, forcing them down with her bill.
"It could have been me..." She said quietly to unresponsive human. "It could been me that needed to die. Why I couldn't die? I could have taken her part, I could have been the one who almost died. Why it have to be Rose and not me?"
Her tears came back with full force as she watched at hand that layed innocently on white blanket where her own hands leaved it. "I don't want to live here without you..." She mumbled to hand before looked at sleeping face of Rose. "I can't live without you, I need you in my life. Who could tell me when I'm doing something wrong in my studies or tell me loosen up after battle? Who can I replace you like some cheap wine, if I had tasted real thing. I can't, I just can't to live anymore without you..." She leaned fully at chair, tears still streaming on her face.
"Is that what you wanted, when you die I would die with you, either by your hands or by my own? Maybe I should... I just need to take that tube away and slit my wrists with blade, then we would leave this planet together..."
She took her backpack and started search for knife, but something bumped to her hand and, she being curious what it could be, took it. It was a box which had name 'Rose's medicine. She looked blankly at box, disappointed that it wasn't something she could use, before her face brightened. Opening box lid, she searched for pills that Rose said were for emergency. Orange bottle was neatly at corner, as was other bottle's, where Fang took it.
It didn't have any indication what kind pill they were, Rose had eaten these pills so long she didn't need it, but she didn't mind it.
"Over medication is easy, especially if you don't know what it is..." Mumbling her plan out, she opened the lid and dropped two little heal packages. She throwed them at her mouth and gulped to start their journey to her stomach. She stopped for little while before dropped five to her palm, but instead emptied rest of what was in small container before taking last five ones.
She leaned back to chair and stared dizzily at roof, waiting for medicine to kick in. She waited for five minutes and was about to fell asleep, but voice at bed stopped her. "Sis, why did you ate my sugar?"
Fang immediately jumped up from seat, to stare in shock as Rose's own eyes watched her movements. "R-Rose?" Black haired girl rolled her eyes as she spoke in sarcastic tone. "No, I'm your tooth fairy. Of course I'm Rose, why would you... Au!" She was stopped courtesy Fang fist that hitted her head.
Fang took hold of her neck and started to strangle it, gently mind you. "WHY YOU LITTLE...!" Rose raised her hand up and spoke in strained voice. "Actually I'm bigger than you." Silver head growled and started to shake person in her hands. "I don't give flying pig if you were my mother, I will still..."
She would have continued, but explosion around door stopped her. Dust cloud kicked up and covered both of sisters, forcing them to cough they lung out.
"Fang-chan! We heard you yell and came as soon... Neechan, you are not dead!?" Rose coughed before wheezed out. "Great timing, once again Doll-chan. And yes, I'm alive. You are an awful murder." Dust floated down and girls saw person that was at door, well more like persons.
Behind Heat was, straining to see over his shoulder, Kid and Killer and behind them was crew trying to sneak a peek.
Rose whistled as she saw the sun. "Damn, I was out longer than before. Maybe if I should stop making all nighters, I would stay up longer..." Humming a bit, she throved blanket away, swung her legs on right side and was about to jump off when doctor came bustling in.
"Not after I have tested you." She smirked and said. "Well ain't you disrespectful. Calling me a whore AND calling the dips while your captains is right behind you."
Doctor gulped and turned his head to look at red face of his superior before ran away, not wanting to test short tempered boys' punch power.
Rose chuckled and jumped off from mattress, wobbling little as she walked towards door.
"Where are you going, Rose?" Fang asked, scared for answer.
Older girl looked at her over her shoulder and gave grin before replying. "To the kitchen." She turned her head around and continued to walk, people at door giving her room.
Fang blinked, jogged to her and asked. "But why?"
Rose glances at her, but kept moving. "I just woke up after my first sleep in this month. I need something more harder than milk to wake up fully."
Fang stopped following her, watched her friends backside disappear through kitchens door before sighed and leaned at wall.
Carefully, as not to spook her, Heat walked to Fang and asked in small voice. "Is everything all right?" She smiled to herself as she said. "It's coffee machine you should be asking that, not me."
Heat was about ask why, but when he, and others, heard cooks shout, all coffee deprived persons ran to kitchen. "No, don't put vodka on coffee machine!"
AN: Yesh! I have done it finally. I would like to think you waited this like raising moon, but seeing I'm bad at guess games and thinking (hurts my head...)

Thank you, who ever gave me comment, thanks to you I can keep my promise, and that makes me actually enjoy my writing times. Hope this gave you some enjoyment to your world. This is Rose, signing out!
