Sequel to Sea Breeze.

For everyone who liked the sweetness of Sea Breeze STOP NOW. This story is unbelievably tragic and will destroy every good feeling you had left from the first one. It's rightfully tagged under tragedy. Includes character death. I'm warning you. Also on top of it being horrible, it's ridiculously short, so I really don't mind if you ignore this and wait for the next one.


Away from the Sea

Chopper loved the scent of the sea. There was a time when he was content just being near it, taking it in. Because once upon a time that scent reminded him of his captain and that was enough to make him happy.

Not anymore. No. Because Luffy- sweet, childish, loving Luffy- had left them behind. Gone where they couldn't follow him. His journey had ended so soon, so painfully soon. Brook was right after all... The best always die young.

And it wasn't fair. Not even a bit. Just what did Luffy do to deserve such a sudden end? No matter how much he had grown, no matter how stronger he had got in the end he was still that little kid with a dream too big for this world. He had died with the heart of a child, a heart that should have never stopped beating.

A heart Chopper should have made sure never stopped beating...

Now tears fill Choppers eyes every time he goes near or even sees the sea. It's hard to forgive (the simple minded world, the universe, Luffy for his recklessness or even himself) and it's impossible to forget.

Once upon a time, Luffy's scent, the sea breeze reminded Chopper of all his nakama, his family, his home. To this day, it still reminds him of that.

Only now that's everything he's lost.


A/N: I'm so evil. O.o what is wrong with me? Can't say I didn't warn you though. Anyway, please ignore this ever happened and wait for the next chapter. Thanks :)
