Hey guys, sorry I meant for this to be out on Friday... but something happened.
Disclaimer; I don't own One Piece, I just own my wonderful OCs.

I felt my legs give in underneath my body's weight once again, as I pushed against Zoro's sword with my bat. Yes, he only had one; this was just the first day of training. He gave one last push sending me onto my butt; I growled standing up with some difficulties. He held his sword up again, and I held my bat up again.

It was a little strange really, fighting someone who fights with swords well I fought with a bat. The sound of Luffy and Usopp singing about the Giants, and the random cling of pans from the galley was in the back ground. I narrowed my eyes slightly, what was I doing wrong? Every single time I attacked he always had some type of counter.

I growled slightly, I didn't even hold anytime of threat to him. Something good happened though, he finally started getting tired, I could tell with his panting. We've been going at this for a couple of hours now. Wow, it sounded almost as if I just said we've been having sex for hours.

I started laughing, and Zoro raised an eyebrow at me. "What's so funny?"

I grinned, resting my bat on my shoulder. "Oh nothing."

He stood up, his sword dropping a bit. A growl escaped his throat, "Tell me, I'm curious now."

I just grinned, ignoring him completely. Another growl came from him, and I was pushed up against the galley's outside wall. I laughed to myself, "You want to know that badly?"

He nodded his head.

I laughed again, it must have looked even worse now that he was pinning me against the wall. I heard another growl.

"Calm down! I'll tell you!"

I smiled at him, "Kidding. I won't."

I got free, and ran around the corner. I felt myself crash into a chest, bringing however it belonged to and me to the deck with a loud crash. I rolled off of said person, clutching my stomach laughing.

Why I found this all so funny, I really have no idea. It must have been because I'm so exhausted right now. Not only did we just leave Little Garden a few hours ago, but I immediately started training with Zoro, and I haven't had anything to eat at all. My stomach growled reminding me of that even more. The person I collided with stood and a hand shot out in front of me. I looked up to see Sanji, and smile grabbing his hand.

I smiled at him apologetically, "I'm sorry, Sanji. I was running away from Zoro."

"What'd he do?"

I laughed at the evil expression now on his face, "He didn't do anything. And, can I have something to eat please?"

Zoro finally decided to round the corner, bumping into me pushing me into Sanji once again. I pushed myself up, "Wow, I don't have that great of luck today do I?"

"SHIT HEAD WHY'D YOU BUMP INTO HER?!"

"I DIDN'T MEAN TO YOU PREVERTED COOK!"

I looked away from the now yelling morons ignoring me growling stomach walking towards Ryan, Vivi, and Nami. I raised an eyebrow at Nami's now sweaty body.

I tilted my head to the side, how could she be hot? It was getting kind of cold. I walked over and leaned against the mass right next to Nami, "You okay?"

She looked up at me with a weak smile, "I'm just a little tired."

I bent down and placed a hand on her forehead. "You're getting hot. You should go to bed and rest."

Ryan nodded, "I've been trying to convince her to do that for a while."

I plopped down on the deck next to them and Nami spoke quickly changing the subject away from her, "So you guys excited for Alabasta?"

I yawned to myself, "I am!"

Ryan nodded with a small smile in Vivi's direction. Before he jumped from the deck and onto his feet within a second. His eyes widened, I raised an eyebrow at him, "You okay dude?"

"THERE. IS. SOMETHING. CRAWLING. IN. MY. PANTS."

He squealed, moving in ways I didn't know he could. Vivi joined my laughing, but covered her up with a hand. Nami weakly laughed beside me. "GET THEM OUTTT!"

I looked at him as if he were crazy, "I'M NOT GOING IN YOUR PANTS! THAT'S SO WRONG!"

He clawed his way into his pockets dropping everything onto the deck, one small ant and a glowing piece of paper. His foot quickly stomped on the ant and I shook my head at him, "It's just a little ant."

"AND?! I DON'T LIKE THEM."

Vivi pointed to the paper, "What's that?"

Ryan picked it up, and looked down at it, "It's the riddle."

I looked at him plainly, "Ryan, you do realize that when ever we complete something that riddle will wiggle constantly. Right?"

He nodded.

I blinked, "YOU NOTICE A SMALL ANT…. BUT YOU DON'T NOTICE A PIECE OF PAPER MOVING IN YOUR POCKET?!"

Ryan just grinned at me, "I guess so."

I quickly brought my fist down onto his head, "DUMBASS!"

He dropped the paper, to grab his hand Nami swiping it way from us. She held it out in front of her. I watched as her hand was shaking slightly, I looked at her. What was wrong with her?

She looked down at the riddle, and her expression slowly turned to confusion. "The whole thing is glowing."

I bent down next to her, and looked down at the paper. "But, I don't understand. Only the lines we complete glow, not the whole paper."

Vivi looked at it confusedly, "Maybe, the riddles are changing."

I groaned, "Why, I liked it before. It was easier. All we had to do was do it, and then bam, it'd glow."

Vivi looked at it, and then tapped her chin, "You know, riddles are meant to be solved by your brain, not just doing things."

Ryan knelt down, "What so now there going to be verbal?"

Vivi nodded, "Maybe that's what it's waiting for."

I tilted my head, "Or maybe… After we do whatever it is there asking we have to figure out what it was we did, and then it'll make that line glow."

Ryan looked at me for a minute; I stared back at him blankly. After a few seconds I growled at him, "WHAT?!"

"That was the smartest thing I've heard from you in a while."

I glared at him, pushing him down on the deck, "And?! So what!"

Nami coughed lightly, "Let's just figure out what we did."

"Or bring you to bed."

She shook her head, "I'm fine, let's just do this."

Ryan grabbed the riddle, after grumbling about evil twins, "The surprise shall be big."

I bit my lip, "Uh…"

Ryan looked at me blankly, "That didn't last long."

"What?"

"There obviously talking about the giants, idiot."

I smiled, "Oh yeah, I forgot about them."

Nami, Vivi, and Ryan sweat dropped. The first line glowed brighter then the rest of the paper.

Nami read the next line. "The prince will lead, with the twig."

By now Zoro and Sanji had stopped fighting and walked over to our small group. "Who's the prince supposed to be?"

Sanji grinned, "Obviously me!"

"You're no prince, shitty cook."

Sanji growled at Zoro ready to say a insult back, when Ryan stopped them. "Sanji is the prince!"

Sanji grinned smugly, and the first part of the second line started to glow. I grabbed the riddle, and glared at it, "WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU, YOU STUPID PIECE OF PAPER?!"

Ryan burst out laughing, and I growled throwing the paper on the ground stomping on it.

Everyone stared blankly at me, "What's going on?"

"She's - laugh - the - laugh - twig!!"

Nami weakly laughed, well Zoro burst out laughing. Vivi covered her mouth to hide her giggles. I growled at the paper, and Sanji danced over to me, "It's alright, Jamie-swaaan."

All laughs stopped when there was a loud crash on to the deck. Every turned around to see Nami passed out on deck. I rushed forward placing my hand on her forehead, "She has a fever!"

"Quickly get her inside!"
