Finals. Tomorrow. Not. Good.
Sorry for the delay, but I've been studying for finals. I managed to get this chapter out, though. (In the time that I could have been studying.)
It'd be GREAT if you could leave a review for my efforts.
Happy reading. *goes back to study*

Day 71
Usopp was bitten by a spider today.
Chopper said it might be poisonous. Usopp freaked out and ran around the ship.
Sheesh. He wouldn't calm down no matter what, even when Chopper was telling him to come over for disinfectant.
The ero-cook put chili peppers in my onigiri today.
Am still plotting revenge.
Trained.
I still get the feeling that I'm being watched.
Who could it be?
Slept.
Day 72
Had the worst day ever.
First, I found a beetle on our ship. I picked it up because of Luffy's hobby of squashing beetles—and it bit me as a thank-you gift.
Have you ever tried to lift a weight while your other hand is stinging? I should hope the bite isn't poisonous, but I'm too angry to care.
That beetle got what it deserved, though. I threw it in the ocean. Ha.
Trained. Cursed beetle for biting me.
Then, Luffy went on a sugar rush AGAIN after eating all the chocolate-chip cookie bars and knocked me over, and I nearly twisted my ankle.
Limped around all day.
Tried to spike the ero-cook's milk with salt, but the she-witch drank it instead.
She thought Usopp did it, though. I guess I owe him an apology.
And to top off my day, guess what?
That creepy hawk is BACK. AGAIN.
Threw things at said hawk.
Slept.
Day 73
Trained.
A bunch of marine ships were chasing us.
Beat them up. One of their treasure chests fell in the ocean.
The she-witch practically ordered us to dive in and retrieve it.
In the chest was a map and a potted plant.
Chopper liked it and put it up in the galley window so it could get sunlight without being blown off the ship.
Robin said the map was written in some sort of code. She's decoding it now.
Luffy was excited. He was yelling about how it was a mystery map leading to a mystery island.
The hawk has perched in the rigging all day. Luffy went up there once to see if he could catch it and it pecked him and chased him down.
I hope it doesn't dive-bomb me in my sleep.
Slept.
Day 74
The ero-cook yelled at Luffy for stealing food. He said that he had a nice bowl of chopped sea king meat set out on the table and when he turned away, someone ate the whole bowl.
Luffy swore that it wasn't him, but of course nobody believed him. No one else was in the galley, and Luffy's the only one that can stretch. Robin could have done it, but she wouldn't.
Unless she's secretly feeding some dragon she captured at the last island or something.
Hmm...that might actually be possible. Robin can be pretty unpredictable in her choice of pets.
Trained.
Climbed up rigging. Hawk is still there. It chased me down.
I'm seriously considering killing it, but if it really is Mihawk's pet, he'd be offended.
Slept.
Day 75
Went in galley and saw Chopper looking at his plant.
He said it grew a lot over two days. It did. It looks sort of engorged.
Chopper was studying it and he noticed it was sort of kind of mutated flytrap.
Even the plants we pick up aren't normal.
Robin is almost finished decoding the map.
Luffy wants to cook the hawk.
I think it's because it tried to carry Chopper off.
Chopper hid in his room all day.
We're nearing an island. Nami says that a marine based is stationed on the island, so we should be careful and not make too much of a scene and remain inconspicuous.
Trained.
Slept.
Day 76
Trained.
Docked at island.
Sure enough, there was a really huge marine base there.
Luffy dashed off to find a restaurant, and when he found one, he catapulted into it using his Gum-Gum powers (and we were supposed to try to be inconspicuous) and ended up sort of making a hole in the wall.
And guess who he crashed into?
Smoker. And that girl with the glasses...what's her name? Tash...something.
I swear, they're stalking us.
We were chased off the island. I didn't even get to visit the sword shop.
Slept.
Day 77
The ero-cook made me wash plates today.
After I dropped one, he made me help him bake a cake for "his lovely Nami-chan".
Baking is not one of my talents.
"Accidentally" put salt in the cake instead of sugar.
Watched ero-cook grovel to the she-witch.
Trained.
Franky just showed us this pool he put together. It's got a water slide and fountains.
Guess where I spent my afternoon.
That stupid hawk tried to gnaw off my hand.
At this rate, my hand'll be crippled and I'll have to chain one of my katana to my leg or something.
Slept.
Day 78
Remember that flytrap plant thing that Chopper got?
It's grown HUGE. It used to be in a regular flowerpot, but today Chopper had to replant it in one of Nami's tangerine tree pots.
It's kind of weird to see all the tangerine trees lined up in a row and right next to them is this giant mutant flytrap.
Robin finished decoding the map.
She says that it's a map of a nearby island. And in the center of the island, there's supposedly lots of treasure.
That's the first time I've seen the she-witch more excited than Luffy.
Trained.
Slept.
Day 79
The hawk is back. I didn't see it yesterday, but now it's back.
I threw things at it, but it swooped down and GRABBED one of my katana.
If I hadn't grabbed it, Shuusui would be gone by now. Come to think of it, Shuusui is pretty heavy. That hawk must be strong.
Oh yeah, Usopp sprained his ankle today. He was sliding on that new water-slide that Franky built and he landed kind of awkward.
Trained.
Walked up to tangerine grove and noticed Chopper's flytrap catch a SEAGULL.
Yuck.
Chased hawk away from weight rack.
Slept.
Day 80
I played cards with Luffy today.
It's really boring to play cards with him. He just doesn't get it. And he has the worst poker face in the Grand Line.
Trained.
Nami found ANTS in our cupboard.
They're swarming all over the sugary stuff. With our luck they'll mutate into killer rabid ants. It wouldn't be surprising, considering what Chopper's plant is turning into.
It's awfully scary to walk past this giant flytrap trying to take a chunk out of your arm. The only good thing about it is that it keeps away the hawk from that area of the ship.
Slept.

Finals. Killing. Me.
Review please?
