Chapter 4: Can we play T&D while waiting?
We went back to the ship, when we go on board, Luffy asked me,"Can you play anything? It might attract the Black Wind."
"Yeah, I have a violin," I said, clearly none looked through my trunk. "I'll go and fetch it if you want me to play."
"Great!" Luffy said. I came back with my violin, it was made of oak and pine. I started to play Fisher's Hornpipe. Luffy, Usopp, and Chopper danced to it. I felt happy, for once, my fiddling was not insulted. Nami and Vivi clapped along as I repeated the song again.
When I finished, they were clapping for me. Sanji had hearts in his eyes, Luffy said,"There, you're going to be our entertainer! Can you play more songs?"
I nodded, I played A Pirate's Life for Me! I spent the next hour playing sea shanties to my real, true friends. The sun was setting already, my finger were hurting now. I stopped, Luffy said,"I love those songs!"
"Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me!" Usopp and Chopper sang as the danced in circles.
I placed my violin in my trunk, then I found some rope I used for handling Sirius. That's it! I rushed back to the group with the rope in hand. "We get the Black Wind to come with us!"
"That's what I was going to say!" Luffy said. "How-"
"Chopper, I'll need your help," I said. I tied him to the main mast with some rope I found somewhere else on the ship. "There."
"No, I know where this is going, but I don't want to die!" Chopper begged me, then I took Carue and tied him next to Chopper, he quacked in protest.
"Luna!" Vivi said. "You can't tie Crue!"
"Trust me, they'll be fine!" I said. "All we have to do is wait for the bird to come to us...what can we do to kill time?...I know, play truth or dare."
"What's that?" Vivi asked.
"Simple, we all sit in a circle and dare each other to do something tell the truth with personal questions," I explained, we all sat in a circle, minus Chopper and Carue, and played. "All right, Luffy can go first since he's captain."
"Zoro, truth or dare?" Luffy asked Zolo.
"Dare," he said.
"Kiss Carue on the beak, and make sure you mean it!" Luffy said.
"Honk!" Carue said as he struggled with the ropes.
"He said no," Chopper said.
"Don't I get to say anything?" Zoro asked.
"Rules are rules, do it," I smirked, Zoro grudgingly moved over to Carue and kissed him full on the mouth! Or should I say beak? We all howled with laughter as Zoro ran for the bathroom, he came back smelling like soap.
"Sanji!" Zoro said, Sanji continued to laugh. "Truth or dare?!"
"D-dare!" Sanji said, gasping for air.
"Hm...I dare you to sing A Pirate's Life for Me or one of Luna's songs while running around the ship while tied in ropes," Zoro said.
I tied his hands and feet with some rope. He hopped around the place,"I'd go for pirates.We pilfer, we plunder-"
Sanji tripped and fell flat on his face, he got up and continued. We laughed harder now every time he fell, I was at the point of crying, along with Zoro.
"We rifle, we loot-"
When he came past me, I stuck out my foot and he tripped over it, NOW I was crying. He managed to get up again, continuing his gag. "Drink up me hearties yo ho!"
When he was done I cut the ropes and he rubbed his wrists, he said as we sat down,"Usopp, truth or dare?"
"Dare," said the marksman.
"Let me see, ah, kiss the Going Merry's figurehead if you're so attached to her," Sanji said.
"Sure," Usopp said, he got up and walked over to her figurehead, just before he placed his lips on it, Sanji said,"I meant a French kiss!"
Usopp stuck his tongue out and licked the wood, Luffy joked,"Looks like I won't be sitting there anymore!"
The marksman sat down, he had a splinter on his tongue, he said,"Bibi, I twuth or bare?"
"Dare," Vivi said.
"Bo a Banbi imitation...I wobe dose."
"I don't know which one," Vivi said, I whispered something in her ear. "That one?" I nodded.She took a piece of her hair and covered it over her left eye. Then she pretended to smoke.
"Where the hell is all the meat?" she asked, I remembered watching that part, everyone besides Sanji burst out laughing.
"Nami, truth or dare?"
"Dare," Nami said.
"I dare you to reveal to us Sanji's left eye," Vivi said.
"Sure," Nami said, she leaned over next to Sanji and pulled up the piece of hair that covered his left eye...I held my breath as we looked closer at him, I was dying to know what was there. He was bi-focal! Who knew?!
"Why cover it?" I asked, he merely shrugged as he lit a cigarette and smoked.
"My pick," Nami said. "Luna?"
"Yeah mate?"
"I dare you to dance with Sanji for five minutes, sing a song, then kiss him when you're done," Nami said, I gave her an awestruck look while Sanji smiled brightly with hearts in his eye, again. We both got up and held each other. My arms around his neck while his were on my waist. "Starting now."
"Well shake up baby now-"
"Louder!" Luffy said.
"Well shake it up baby, now," I sang a bit louder, Sanji smiled.
"Twist and shout.
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, baby, now.
Come on and work it on out.
Well work it on out honey.
You know you look so good.
You know you got me goin' now.
Just like I knew you would."
We swayed for a minute before actually ball room dancing around deck. Left, left, right, left, turn. After a while sing (Twist and Shout, by the Beatles), Usopp asked,"How long was this?"
"About ten minutes," Vivi said, I heard her.
"Do I get a kiss?" Sanji asked me.
"THE BLACK WIND!" Chopper screamed, they all saw the large eagle flying in lazy circles above us. After a minute or two he dived for Carue, I got out my own rope and swung it in circles. Just a horse, pretend it's a horse, no biggie.
The Black Wind came closer, I stepped in front of him and threw the rope at him, I caught him around his neck. He instantly changed into a horse and reared, now I can manage him better! I pulled harder on the rope, I managed to get on him.
No saddle, I held tight and seized his thick mane. He tried bucking me off, by I managed to stay on. After a few minutes, he calmed down and switched to an eagle. Chopper said,"He deems you worthy of riding him, now he'll stay with us."
"I'll call you Loki," I said, getting off my new pet and stroking his feathers. I saw that he had a bag, I opened it and saw an odd looking fruit. Suddenly, Loki ate it and I said,"That was a Devil Fruit!"
"I know," he said. "I can talk to you know, finally. Thanks to the Tongue Tongue Fruit I found."
(Note: With Sanji's eyes, bi-focal means that a person has two eyes that are two different colors)
