'Where could she have gone? Luffy is going to kill me if I don't find his sister.' Zoro thought to himself when he turned a corner.

"I like that offer and I hope you know, we don't play by the rules." a third thug told her when he neared her with his choice of a weapon...a bat.

He swung at her body but she ducked and the bat hit nothing but air. "Is that all you sissies have?" Alisha asks after dodging the man attack while still wobbling.

Then two men came from the opposite direction with the attempt on punching her but she stumbled backwards and their heads collided with one another.

"See you can't even fight a woman who is drunk, ain't that a pity." she said but she did not notice that someone was coming behind her with a katana until she moved out the way just in time when she felt something warm running down her arm.

She glanced down and there was a gash and it was a deep one too. 'I didn't move out the way enough. If I move too much I would be losing a lot of blood, the same way as running away and I don't have any weapon on me. I hate this situation. Alright I have to think clearly, wait what is this green blur, that I see.' thought Alisha as the green blur was not there before.

Zoro had finally caught up to where she was, "What do you thugs think you are doing?" he asked the group once he appeared in her front of her and the thugs.

"Its Roronoa, Zoro, let's run away!" shouted one of the thugs. They all ran away following their leader.

"I didn't have time to try out my new move on them." Zoro said in a dejected tone before he heard a loud thud.

He turned around and saw Alisha lying unconscious on the ground with blood flowing from her arm signaling to him that she had acquired an injury.

'Oh man, Luffy and Ace are going to definitely kill me. Well I might as well take her back to the house then.' he thought to himself before he went over towards where she was laying and picked her up bridal style and carried her all the way back to her house.

There was a knock on the door as it caught everyone's attention. "Luffy answer the door!" shouted Usopp since it was his sister's home.

Luffy made his way over and opened the door to see Zoro with his shirt and blood spots that came from Alisha's body.

"What happened to onee-chan?" Luffy inquired on what happened to his sister when Zoro pass him and placed Alisha on the couch.

"Chopper, we need your help to clean this wound," says Nami after seeing Zoro's shirt stained with blood.

Chopper quickly made his way over with a handful of cotton balls, a bottle of peroxide, and a roll of white bandage wrap.

"Is she still alive?" Usopp inquired before Chopper could get started on his examination of her.

"Yes she will but if the wound grows bigger, she can lose a lot of blood." He answered while pouring a little peroxide on some of the cotton balls and gently dabbed around the wound.

When Chopper saw that she didn't finch or anything he thought to himself. 'She must be unconscious. She cannot be dead because she is not a deathly pale color.'

Once he finished up with cleaning the blood off, he then wrapped it, not to tightly with the white bandage.

"So what happened?" Vivy interrogated Zoro on how Alisha received the wound.

Just then everybody head sharply turned and look in the direction of Zoro. "Why are you all sending me death stares? I didn't do anything to her." Zoro stated.

Everybody face turned to you know who for what happened with a 'you just don't want to tell us' look. "I'm telling you the truth by the time I caught up she had that deep wound from the thugs that was already there, and when I showed up they ran off and then she fell unconscious." He replied.

'And I thought I made up stories.' Usopp thought to himself in disbelief at .

"I'm not making this up at all." Zoro said a little angered. "I believe you Zoro, I just glad you were there to help my onii-chan," said Ace who was sitting on an armed-chair.

Just then Chopper came over and announced. "Alisha is fine but she is still unconscious, anybody have an idea how to wake her up?"

"Lets get some cold water on her face," Sanji suggested to the group. "Or some boiling hot water," exclaimed Zoro.

"No let's wake her up by gently shaking her." replied Vivy after Sanji and Zoro's idea were shoot down.

"I like that idea better," Nami stated. She went over to the couch and gently shook her, after a couple of tries she came to.

'Ow my head hurts, it looks like I drunk too much again. Oh snap what am I am going to tell nii-chan?' she thought to herself.

"Ow my head, it feels like the world fell on it," she said as she came to.

'More like you fell on the world,' thought Zoro with his eyes close. He opens them and he saw Alisha now sitting next to him.

"Thanks for saving me also I am sorry for punching you in the face, then knocking you out cold, then pouring hot water on your face and for making you chase me over the city." she offered her apology.

"Its okay." he said still taking in the oddness of the apology she gave to him.

Then she yawn "Everybody, lets get some sleep, we just had a long night and I'm bushed." Says Nami.

Everybody nodded there head in agreement, and everybody trudged off to sleep.
