I sighed watching Nami kick Luffy and Sanji off into the sea. Then I turned my head to the side to see Nami looking down at the broken Log Pose shocked, "What are we going to do now?!"

"Hey Nami."

She turned and looked at me with a sad face, "Wasn't that the most important thing to us right now?"

Her face quickly changed as she walked over to me quietly, I grinned to myself when she glared down at me. Quickly her fist was brought down onto my head, I laughed.

I felt another punch to my head, "What's wrong with you?!"

I looked up to see Ryan, and I smiled, "What isn't wrong with me?"

He stopped glaring down at me and just turned away mumbling about having a dumb twin and going to help Luffy and Sanji. I looked up at Nami quietly, "Well? What are we to do?"

"You can all calm down." Benji spook from next to Claucus.

We turned to both of them, "We were going to give you one anyway."

I smiled at them and then turned to Nami who was calm now, "I think you should work on your temper."

She turned to me once again with a glare.

-RYAN'S POINT OF VIEW!-

I sighed and watched my sister once again get a hit to the head. What an idiot. I shook my head and continued walking towards where Luffy and Sanji should come back too.

I looked towards the ground kicking a rock, thinking back to when they told us Laboon's story. The whole thing reminded me of her. I looked ahead making sure to pay attention to where I'm going.

I looked down at the ground when Claucus was talking. Then with a sad sigh looked at my sister, her body was slightly shaking. I walked forward placing a hand on her shoulder getting a firm grip trying to stop the shaking I'm sure she wasn't aware off. I saw her tilt her head up with a smile.

The sad smile I haven't seen for such a long time. I knew she was thinking of that night. For about a year she wouldn't accept the fact that mom was gone. She would just mope around the house, barely even saying a word. I'm surprised she even did stop eating.

That person wasn't my sister, it was a zombie. I couldn't believe it either, but I didn't let it show. I had to be strong for her; I had to show her she could still be happy. At first I didn't know how else to help, it wasn't until I saw her getting picked on in school that's when I stepped in.

I walked down towards the swings looking for any sign of my sister. We were outside for recess and oddly I couldn't find my twin anywhere. I heard a few whispers as I passed by people. I knew what they were whispering about. I've walked in on many conversations about my sister and me, well more about my mom disappearing.

Some thought my father did something to her to hurt her. I couldn't believe the people that would even think that! My father wouldn't do anything to hurt our mom! He loved her very much! Some thought she ran away because she didn't love us anymore. My mom would never leave us like that, I knew she loved us! Some even thought my father did a few experiments on her cause he's a scientist.

I looked around more frantically for my sister. Where was she! I heard more whispering, this time not from my classmates but from my teachers! I growled running past them, which wasn't very fast. Sadly I wasn't gifted with being the fastest. But even though my legs weren't very strong my arms are.

I sighed thankfully when I spotted her sitting on a rock by herself. I walked closer about to yell her name when I got a better view of her. Turns out she wasn't by herself, also she wasn't sitting she was pushed up against the rock.

I scrambled over, hearing what the three boys where yelling at her.

"So, where's your mommy?" one yelled.

"I heard she ran away because she hates you!"

I looked up and saw her with tears down her face. Still she spoke no words to protect herself. This wasn't the sister I once had. She always spoke up for herself!

"I heard her dad killed her!"

I skidded to a stop in front of them and glared at them, "Leave her alone!"

"What are you going to do about it, Ryan?!" another yelled.

"Yeah, are you going to have your dad kill us too!"

"SHUT UP!" I yelled at them at the top of my lungs, "GET AWAY FROM US AND LEAVE US ALONE FOREVER!"

They quickly scrambled away, and I turned back to my crying sister.

"Why aren't you sticking up for yourself?! You aren't my sister! My sister would have beat them up for even thinking about our mom! What is wrong with you!? You aren't the only one who lost her!"

I saw her lift up her head tears ran down her cheeks, and her big green eyes stared at him through her long blonde hair. Her mouth opened slightly as if she was about to talk when she was caught off by the sound of the teacher ending recess.

(Jess Likes Biting: Not to confuse anyone, but I said Jamie's hair was blonde in the little flashback/memory above. When currently her and Ryan's hair is bright red, hers having some black. Why? Because, they're orginal hair color was blonde. I told you they dyed it in the first chapter. :D Just making sure you know!)

I sighed shaking my head of the whole memory; that was the only time I have ever yelled at Jamie like that. I mean, I do yell at her but that's because she's an idiot. The whole time I was yelling at her that day I was truly angry at her. I couldn't believe what she had become in that year.

But after I said those words to her, it changed slowly she was starting to be herself again. She started talking, well more like mumbling, but it was good enough for me. By the end of that school year, she was back to normal.

I smiled to myself, and looked up to see four people merge from the ocean and grab onto the edge of the erm, mountain? I think its part of the mountain at least.

Sanji's hand was tightly holding onto Luffy's shirt pulling him up. I walked forward with a small smile, "You guys need some help?"

"Hey Ryan!" Luffy grinned grabbing my hand.

I picked him up out of the water then turned to help Sanji only to see him already out of the water in front of the blue haired girl, Ms Wednesday.

"Please give me your hand, Ms Wednesday!"

I watched as hearts poured out of his eyes, "Err… Thanks?"

I felt the urge to laugh, and Luffy stood next to me watching the scene.

The older man next to her pulled himself up and turned to us, "I need to ask for your help."

-Jamie's POV and back with everyone-

Nami turned to the two people, "Whisky Peak?"

"What's that?" Luffy questioned.

"It's our home town." Mr. 9 spoke.

"You don't have a ship so you want us to help you?" I questioned raising an eye brow, "You just tried to kill the whale, and you expect us to do anything for you?"

Usopp stepped forward, "Who are you?"

The man stepped forward, "I am the king!"

Nami folded her arms across her chest, "Don't lie."

Both fell to their knees bowing down at us, "Please help us!"

I raised an eye brow at there action looking over to Ryan, he seemed out of it right now. This made my brow rise even more. What's up with him?

I shook my head turning back to the two. I must have been out of it because when I did turn to the two head Luffy said something that shocked me, "You can come with us."

I looked up at Luffy shocked, "What? You're letting them come?"

"Yes, now let's get going."

I nodded at my captain and walked towards the ship everyone following us. Nami looked down at the map she was holding and at the new log pose from Benji and Claucus. "It's working!"

Claucus looked at her, "Is it pointing towards Whisky Peak?"

Nami grinned, "Yup!"

Benji looked up at us on the ship, "Are you sure you want to go there for them?"

Luffy shrugged, "If we don't like it, we'll come back."

Giggles from the Ms Wednesday and Mr. Nine caused me to turn my head towards them catching them whispering to each other, "Stupid pirates."

I glared at them walking behind them, "Who's stupid?"

They looked behind them to see me glaring at them with my fist in the air, "No one!"

I watched them wave their hands in front of them walking away slowly. I smirked turning back to Claucus and Benji. "Thank you for the log pose!"

I smiled and watched Luffy wave to the two, "Bye Mr Flower!"

I laughed at the nickname and then waved myself, Benji waved with Claucus.

"See you again soon."

As the ship started moving Luffy turned towards the whale, "WE'RE LEAVING NOW! I'LL BE BACK!"

With one last loud sound from the whale we set off.
