Chapter 12: Life at the End of an Arrow
"So when's the next island coming up?" asked Endo as he walked into the kitchen. smelling the breakfast that Penny wiped up.
Shan shrugged her shoulders "Don't know Elsa hasn't gotten up ye-"
As if on cue Elsa comes barging into the kitchen with a hop in her steep and looking great. Following her was Mac who was bleary eyed, hair messed up, shirtless, and in sweat pants.
Siamon cracked a grin "You two have a good night?"
Elsa beamed at him "More than good it was great! Wasn't it Mel!"
"ZZZZZZZZZZZZ!"
Mac has fallen asleep face first in his oatmeal. Elsa gabbed Siamon's news paper rolled it up and hit Mac in the head with it.
"Ow! What was that for!"
"No sleeping in the oatmeal………here's some toast!"
Elsa moved the cereal and placed the bread in front of him. Mac fell right back to sleep on his toast. The rest of the crew sweat dropped.
Shan looked at Penny who was still cooking "Hey Penny where you learn to cook?"
"The Baratie"
Her eye's widened "That's one of the most famous restaurants in the world how you get to learn to cook there?"
Penny washed her hands and sat down at the table.
"Well it started when my parents died and I was sent to live with my only living relative for a while……"
/FlashBack/
A little blonde girl stood outside of a restaurant that was in the middle of the ocean. She was scared because she never met her Great-Uncle before. Also the restaurant looked like a giant fish.
She nervously opened the door to the place, waiting for the worst. It was empty because it just closed or about to open.
A tall black hair teen was cleaning the tables grumbling about old men or something when he noticed the tiny child standing at the front of the room holding a bag and looking around wide eyed.
The teen walk over to her and the tiny girl was freaking out. The teen bent down to her level.
"Hey, kid I'm Axe what's your name?"
"Penny" Whispered the little girl.
" Well Penny were closed at the moment why don't you wait outside."
Axe reached for her shoulder, but Penny shrieked and ran into the restaurant.
"Damn It! Sanji help!" yelled the teen named Axe.
A blonde teen walked out of the kitchen drying his hands on a towel.
"Axe don't try to get out of training again-"
"That's not it, help me catch that girl."
The blonde teen got heart in his eyes.
"A lady where?"
"Not a lady you idiot a girl…..look there she is!"
Sanji looked to where Axe was pointing, and saw big eyes peaking out over a table to look at him.
"Where did she come from?"
"I don't know, I was cleaning tables and she was just there standing at the entrance!"
Sanji just looked at him and then turned to Penny. The cook in training walk over to the girl.
"Hey I'm Sanji would you like something to eat?"
Penny just stared at the teen for a few seconds and then picked up a plate and hit Sanji in the face with it.
"Ahhhhhh! Pervert!"
Penny ran into the kitchen. Axe was on the floor laugh his head off. Sanji glared at him.
"What are you laughing at?!"
"Even young children can tell you're a pervert! HA!"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Penny ran threw the kitchen trying to find a safe spot to get away from the two teenage guys. But then she ran into something made of wood.
Penny looked up to see an old man with a long goatee, and a peg led. Penny's eyes widened the people that brought her here told her what her great uncle looked like and she's finally found him.
Zeff looked down at the child because there was something familiar about her.
"Girl what's your name?"
" Penny Kia D. Mabui!"
"Mabui? Your there kid?"
"Yep!"
"So why are ya here?"
Penny's eye's started to get teary and Zeff noticed this. He under stood perfectly.
At that moment Sanji and Axe decided to make there appearance. Axe walked up to Zeff.
"Sorry, we'll get her out of here for you."
Zeff got an angry look on his face and kicked both Axe and Sanji threw a wall. Sanji got up and stalked over to Zeff.
"What's the big deal old geezer!?"
Penny jumped out from behind Zeff and kicked Sanji in the shin. Zeff smiled.
"This is my grand-niece Penny she's going to be staying with use for a while.
Axe and Sanji both had shocked looks on there faces, mouths hanging open.
/Flashback End/
"……and that's how I came to learn on the Baratie."
Siamon smiled "So did Zeff teach you any of his fighting style?"
Penny shook her head "No, he said I didn't have the right body type to use the style, but he did teach me some things in it and I learned how to use knives pretty well."
Siamon nodded "Good, Good."
Endo getting bored of the conversation turned to Elsa.
"How much till we reach are first Island in the grand line?"
Elsa pulled out a map and a Log Post and scanned the paper. Endo pointed at the Post.
"Where you get that?"
"I've had it for a while now, me and Mel have been traveling the ocean for two years before we meet you."
"Oh!"
Elsa did some measuring and checking before she answered.
"About another hour but this island is deserted but to go on we have to stop there."
Endo nodded, Shan looked at her captain and she finally decided to ask him.
"Ummm…… Endo what made you decided to become a pirate? Do you want to become pirate king?"
Endo shook his head " No Pirate king is to flashy, all I want to do is travel, have fun, and become a person who's been to every place in the world not just know about it from a book."
Siamon looked at him "So you want to be the worlds greatest explorer?"
"Yeah!"
"You know you could have became that without becoming a pirate?"
"Yeah I know! But where's the fun in that, you need to break the rules to do some things!"
Everyone nodded except for Mac who was still asleep.
"Soooooooo! I'm bored anyone else have stories to tell?"
Siamon nodded at this "I do, this story is from when I was a Trainer for the marines before I was promoted to captain."
"And then demoted and sent to jail." Mac mumbled as he woke up.
"Anyway there was a slight rivalry between two of my students when it came to guns….."
/Flashback/
Siamon walk down Marine HQ hallways with a cup of coffee in one hand and a chart listed with names in the other. The higher up's said he has to take on two trainee's that have been acting up.
"Let's see we have Sata, Ashton……"
Siamon scanned the paper to the other highlighted name.
"…..and Zolaro, Niri…….Zolaro….hmmmm…must be his child."
The merman marine pushed open the door and saw the two people he was looking for. The first one was a slime black haired girl and the second was a blue haired boy with glasses.
"Sata, Zolaro I'm the head marine trainer Siamon and you two have been put under my care!"
"Great we get a Merman as a trainer just bloody great…" mumbled Ashton as he adjusted his glasses.
Siamon heard this and grabbed the boy by his throat and lifted him off the ground.
"Boy! You will show he respect are hear me I do have the right to kill you!"
Niri was giggling silently to herself behind Siamon. Siamon turned his head slightly.
"Just because you're a women Zolaro I won't go easy on you. You're a soldier now you're a tool of the Navy!"
Niri had a shocked look on her face, she stood up and saluted.
" I don't expect to be treated any differently SIR!"
Siamon smirked
The merman looked at his clipboard and flipped threw some pages.
"It says here that you're here because you had a shooting contest……."
" I don't see a problem with that." said Ashton and Niri actually agreed with him. Siamon continued talking.
"……In the cafeteria."
Ashton frowned and Niri had a sweat drop on her head and a silly grin.
"Oh yeah forgot that part."
"Now When your under my command you will behave Okay!"
The two nodded.
" Good now meet me at the shooting range since you two like guns so much I'll like to see your ability's."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
" Okay Sata your up first…… and what type of gun will you be using?"
" A Tommy Rifle…." Ashton saw the look in Niri's eye's and decided to diminish that hope.
"……..it's a one of a kind."
Niri glared hate at him. Siamon noticed this and decided to break the silence.
" How far will your target be?"
"Give me 700 yards."
Niri shot out of her seat "That's impossible with that kind of gun!"
Ashton gave her a sly grin " Just watch me girly."
The statement had Niri fuming. Ashton reached into his pocket and pulled out a scope.
Got the gun ready in his hands and fired about hundred rounds in under thirty seconds.
"How I do sir?"
Siamon held the binoculars to his eye's and looked at the target.
"The chest is torn up, and there are a fell holes in the head. Good job Sata. Zolaro your up…Your going to shoot the same distance?"
"Yeah"
"What type of gun?"
"My fathers pistol."
She looked threw the scope and fired six shot's.
"How I do?"
Siamon looked threw his binoculars and examined the target slowly.
"One head, one in both elbows, one in both knee caps , and one in the heart. Great Job!"
Ashton stood up "What was so great about that!"
Siamon turned to face the young man "She had a head and heart shot which are kill shoots. One to each arm which are disarming shots, and one to each knee cap which is a disabling or crippling shot. She covered every thing, all you did was show me the kill shot."
Siamon signaled to Niri "Zolaro we need to talk come with me, Sata you have the rest of the day off."
Niri and Siamon walked away. Ashton just stood there in anger.
/Flasback End/
"….And that's what happened."
" Si what happened to this Niri you mentioned?" asked Endo.
Siamon sighed " She was arrested for murder, but broke out of jail a couple of months ago."
" What about that Ashton?" asked Shan
Mac, Elsa, and Endo all sighed because they actually knew the guy and he was a jerk.
" Well he was the one who arrested me, and as of this moment he is most likely dead."
Endo's eye's widened "What when I fought that coward I left him alive."
"I know it says right here in today's news that there was blood found covering his office and it has been found out that it was his blood."
Elsa waved her hand "Who cares about him, you can most likely see the island from the deck by now…Mel, Si where did ever one go?"
Siamon with out looking up from his paper pointed out the door. Mac fell back asleep on his toast.
"They left when you said the words 'see' and 'island' they should be on deck."
"Oh okay…………….MEL WAKE UP!"
WHACK
"OW, What was that for?"-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hey Shan?"
"Yes Penny?"
"Didn't Elsa say this was a deserted island?"
"Yeah why?" ask the Captain
"Because!" the tiny girl said cheerfully
" There are two people standing on it!"
The captain and the doctor had surprised looks on there faces. There on the island as they got closer were two men. There clothing was dirty and they looked tired. One had a bow and arrow and the other was holding a guitar.
"Hey Elsa, Mac, Si come look at this!" yelled Endo.
The three crew members walked out on deck to see what there captain wanted. They saw Penny pointing and Mac and Elsa's eye's grew wide.
"Mel it's…..!"
" I know."
"He looks tired!"
"Because he's in a stand off."
" Why?"
" He's a stubborn idiot."
"Uh guys?"
"ENDO WHERE TALKING!" yelled Elsa
" As your captain I want to know what your talking about!"
Mac then pointed to the man on the right.
" That's Razz the guy we told you about."
Endo's mouth hung open, and then he looked at the two.
"He HAS to join this crew."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
" Vhen are ou going to give up?" asked Razz
Kazuya just stared at him.
" Ou know vou can talk every now and ven."
Kazuya just keep on starring nothing was going to distract him.
" Your life is at the end of this arrow and nothing will break my focus on yo-"
"HI YA!"
A little blonde girl popped out of nowhere and wave her hand in front of his face. This surprised him and it made him launch his arrow in the air.
"I'm Penny!"
WHACK
CRASH
Kaz looked over at Razz to see he was on the ground unconscious and standing over him was a dark haired girl holding a scythe out in front of her. The blonde girl Penny waved at the dark haired women.
"Hey Elsa!"
"Hi Penny!"
Kaz's eyes widened that was one of the people he was after.
"You know it's rude to starred at someone."
Kaz's attention turned to a voice that was to his right. There stood a blonde eighteen year old boy and he had an arrow stuck in his head, and behind him was a rather tall teen with shaggy brown hair.
"You've meet Penny, I'm Endo this is Mac, over there is Elsa and our other two crew members are on the boat. Just wanted you to know so when you wake up we don't have to make introductions."
"Wha-" Kaz was kicked in the face by Penny knocking him out.
Mac picked up both the red trench coated man and Razz and carried them back to the boat. Shan leaned over the edge of the boat's railing and looked at Endo a small smile formed on her lips.
"Umm Endo I think it's a good thing your made out of wood."
Endo looked at her confused " What ya mean?"
Shan pointed to her head, with a small blush on her cheeks.
"There's an arrow in your head."
Endo felt his head, found the arrow gave it a pull, then looked you at Shan. with a smile on her face.
"Can you give me a hand."
