Soon Nami and Robin had finished collecting the tangerine, smiling they placed the baskets down, half way through Zoro had woken and watched them but then walked over to Nami. The older women watched them and smiled, seeing Zoro like this it brought out a side that the others really never saw well maybe they did but didnt watch as carefully as they thought. Franky joined her and told Nami, he would take the baskets down, thanking him. Nami watched as the cyborg walked away followed by Robin who offered to help.
There was something defiantly going on between the two.
Looking at Zoro, she wondered if Chopper could ask him what happened. Nami wanted to know for she hadnt been able to help the swordsman and now he was paying the price by becoming some what of a beast. Nodding to herself, she headed out of the grove and knew that he was following her by the sound of how he walked, he moved like an ape.
Knowing that Chopper would be mostly likely in the medical bay, she headed there, on the way there she had decided that maybe a shower would be good later. Approaching the door marked Bay, she knocked then pushed it opened to see Chopper pulling off little spikey balls off Luffy, shaking her head she smiled.
"What happened to you?"she asked.
"I almost caught this big fish but it spat these at me, they hurt, Ouch!"Luffy replied.
"Sorry, almost done"Chopper piped.
The captain nodded, Nami smiled as she watched while Zoro looked on and moved back when the Luffy let out a cry for the last spike was very painful, Zoro grunted and the other two looked at Chopper.
"He asks if you going to be ok"he said smiling.
Luffy held up his thumbs to Zoro and the swordsman smiled then slowly moved again but he still didnt trust this man for the aura, Nami walked over to Chopper, the small doctor asked her if her wound was acting up which got a whine out of Zoro, she smiled to him then turned to Chopper.
"No but there is something I want to ask"she said.
"What?"he asked.
"You said you could understand Zoro maybe you could ask him what happened that day"Nami answered.
The small nodded and told her he would give it a try, Luffy was on his way out but hearing this made him stop and turned back, he really wanted to know. They watched as Chopper moved his hands around and grunted like Zoro, the swordsman became still and quiet, now this worried him so Nami approached him calling his name but suddenly he looked up and his eyes became slits then ran to the door.
Luffy had pulled Nami out of the way and Zoro burst through the door howling, they could hear him moving. Looking at each other they followed after him, they listened to the howling and went the way were there was destruction, Franky was not going to like this.
Now outside they watched as he climbed the mast and howled, Zoro was acting differently and it worried him. The others came out and tried to get him down but nothing would do, Usopp ran to the edge of the railing and frowned. Running over to Luffy, he told the captain that he could see movement coming from the left side but other voice piped in.
"Movement on the right"Brook called out.
"Movement from the rear"Franky shouted.
This was confusing and he looked to Nami who was in the middle of the deck, her focused still on Zoro however she did not see the tenacle that rose to the side of the ship and darted to her, before anyone could yell her name, the monster dragged Nami over the ship into the water. Luffy ran to the railing, reaching his hand out but there was nothing he could do.
"AAAARRRGGHHHH!"
Looking up, Robin watched as Zoro dove from the top straight into the water after Nami and the monster. Sanji tried to go after them but he was held back by Usopp, he kicked the sharpshoot but what he was told made him stop.
"If you go, he may attack you forget Nami"
Robin ordered them to get ready for when Zoro came back up with Nami so they all ran around while Luffy and Franky watched from the railing, they hoped Zoro in this state would be able to do it. The swordsman swam as fast as he could kick and he was ripping the shreds out of the monster, all he wanted to do was kill the thing but then he noticed it, the orange locks.
Eyes becoming normal, Zoro left the monster well what was left of it and moved to her, Nami was having trouble and could feel her last breath wanting to escape then she felt someone pulling at her. Green was the colour she saw and she felt the relief sink into her body, Zoro had come for her like he always did, no matter the situation he would be her knight in armour.
With the help from Franky and Luffy, they were pulled up and Zoro placed her down while he tried to catch his breath, Nami sat up slowly.
"N...a.."
"N.a..m
"Na..m.i"
She turned to Zoro who was now looking at her, had Nami heard right was he trying to talk to her. Looking at the others, they had the same facial expression, was Zoto trying to say something.
"Nami"
"Zoro thank you"she said.
He tackled her into a hug and all he could do was repeat her name, Luffy sat down grinning and the others smiled. The swordsman was slowly coming back to them, bit by bit. After Luffy, Robin and Sanji made sure there were no more monster coming to them due to Zoro's howling, Sanji returned to the kitchen to make them something eat after the whole deal while Franky along with Robin went to check the damage he had done.
Chopper had led her to the medical bay, wanting to make sure that her wound didnt open, seeing that nothing had changed. He smiled up at her and told Nami she could leave now, thanking him she walked out of the hole made by Zoro. Usopp was with Brook standing watch in case something did come, her and Zoro soon pass the bathroom door and that made her stop.
"Nami?"he said tilting his head.
Earlier she decided she wanted a shower but now a good long bath was what she needed after the hole monster deal, opening the door, she moved to the large tub and began to run the water. An hour later, it was filled and the room was now steamy which made her smile. Zoro had entered with her into the room but he stood gaurd, slipping out of her clothes, she moved into the water.
Letting out a relaxed sigh.
She had no trouble undressing in front of Zoro for he had seen her naked before and it didnt seem like he noticed really, rubbing the soap across her arms, she felt something splash her so she turned around but no one was there then Nami tilted her head to see if Zoro was still by the door but suddenly his face popped out of the water, scaring her.
"Geez"she said holding her hand to her chest.
All he did was smile at her, Nami felt uncomfortable but he nudge her hand that had the soap then she realized, Zoro hadnt had a bath or shower in a long time so she moved closer to him and began to remove his clothing. Grabbing the sponge, she began to scrub, Nami could see he was enjoying it and so was she which caused her to smile.
Soon they were done and she dried off, watching her, Zoro copied her. And now they wore robes, first they went to her room so she could change and once she was done, she headed to the door but Robin came in holding clothes belong to Zoro.
"I thought you might need these"she said.
Nami thanked her and watched her leave, shaking her head, she turned to Zoro and handed them to him. A few times she had to help him but he was getting the hang of it and they left the room towards the kitchen to eat. Once in the room, she told them all that they would need to re-frame from asking Zoro what happened, they did not want what happened earlier.
I hope you enjoyed this chapter, the next chapters further along will explain what happened
