The last part in chapter five was hard for me to write...because it was Usopp!


Chapter 6: All Figured Out

"And what are you guys laughing about?" Akumu asked plesantly, he sat down next to them. He was a mere 16 year old kid, and it was pretty strange that he was made captain of the undead army from the Underworld. They stopped laughing. "...i know, anyway, Yume wants to see you, Luna...if that's your real name..." Luna glared at him as he helped her up and guided her to the tent. "...not everyone's easy to trust, Protecter."

Luna, who had her head down, jerked her up and responce by the young captain. She gave a snort.

"SHIT! How'd he know?!"

Akumu tossed Luna through an opened tent and she landed right at Yume's feet. Again, she was pitting sand out of her mouth, Yume glared down at her as he got to her eyelevel.

"Where's the Temple, how do we get there, when do we get to leave?" Yume asked her tensely.

"I really have no idea what you're talking about." Luna deneied him. "Seriously, I don't."

He got up to his feet and tossed a map to her. "This might jog your memory a bit."

She stared at it blankly.

"Urgh, you need to do this faster." she could feel his temper rising, if it went any higher, it'll blow the whole campsite off the shoal. There was a small thud, she whiped around to see Nami being shoved to the dirt. Luna tried to get up, but something held her down. Yume raised Nami's head, then held a knife to her throat. "Tell me, or I'll spill her blood."

"Disgraceful bastard, you shouldn't do that to a lady...Collier Coup!"

"Eh?!"

Yume realeased Nami, Luna jumped to her feet to raise her leg. "TEKKAI!" And before she made contact with his neck, he turned to steel, but Luna jumped backwards onto the table as a reflex action and got onto the ground. She took Nami's wrist and the two girls scrambled out of Yume's tent. Luna led Nami to the left.

"C'mon!"

"ARGH! TRICKY LITTLE BITCH!"

The prince ran out too in hot pursuit, Reese and Becky caught up with them when they saw them dash passed Akumu.

"Reese, hold Becky while we jump in the river!" Luna ordered him.

"What, you can't swim!" Nami exclaimed when they were being chased by the guards. Yume and Akumu suddenly appeared before them, the prince raised his leg in the air.

"Rankyanku!"

Nami, Becky, and Reese ducked, leaving Luna to take the hit, she flew into a post and then dropped on the ground clutching her stomach. Blood flowed heavily from her mouth as she tried to keep conciousness, the prince walked toawrds her and the to glared at each other.

"Why can't you read the maps?"

They all watched her cough out more blood, she coughed it out with a smile across her face. A laugh erupted from the base of her throat.

"What's there to laugh about?!" Yume kicked her squarely in the chest. Several guards grabbed Nami, Reese, and Becky to prevent them from running off. The angry prince kicked her continuesly until he stopped to give him a second to breath.

"...cough...isn't it obvious?" Luna stared up at him, her eyes softened as she struggled to her feet. She threw her arms out as if to emphisise something. "You got the wrong guy, crap-prince." Luna instantly turned into Sanji. He took out a cig and proceeded to light it.

"Then who the hell are you?"

"Your worst nightmare-"

"Nevermind about that, my brother's a nightmare!" Yume barked, Akumu gasped in the background and fainted from the offence. "...oh, sorry...anyway! Guards, make sure he doesn't run away. You all heard the saying...Eye for an Eye, yes?"

Two men took Sanji by his arms and held him tightly, a larger, more stronger guard stood in from of Sanji.

"Oh...shit."

"You can't do that to him!" Becky shouted, her legs flailing in the air. "He only got one eye left!"

"At least give him a fair trial!" Reese added with Becky's statement.

"BECKY! REESE!" the navigator barked at them, they turned their heads to her to see that she was crying. "These jerks are like pirates, only worse. We can't do a thing to help Sanji-kun. I don't know what world you, Luna, and Matt-kun came from,but it's different here when it comes to the law."

"GIVE HIM A FAIR TRIAL!" roared the thirteen year old, he started struggling against the guard. "LEMME GO YOU FUCKED UP BITCH FACED BASTARD!"

"Someone, shut him up!" Yume roared with his patiences losing control. The guard holding Reese pinched the back of his neck tightly and the boy was knocked out. "CONTINUE! AND MAKE SURE HE NEVER RUNS AGAIN! THEN LEAVE HIM OUT IN THE DESERT!"

The two girls watched in horror to see the larger guard place a full hard kick on Sanji's left knee. You can litraly hear Sanji's joint pop and crack, then shatter. The chef dropped his cig and threw his head back from the pain of his joint disconnected. '

"SANJI!"

"Leave him here, he can't walk anymore." Akumu ordered, they all walked away from the scene. "Back to work, all of you! We'll dump him later!" The first one to be released was Nami, who sprinted over to Sanji and ripped the left side of his black pants to get a better look a his joint.

"Shit..."

"Dra haha..." Yume stood in front of them, he bent over to snarl,"A fair trial is what got all of us in this fix in the first place. There is no such thing as justice in the desert, it's either kill, or be killed."

And with that, the prince left them in his wake, there was something twisted about his smile. But...isn't there always something twisted on the Grand Line?

(Anyway)

"Oooooookeeyyyyy, break it up, ya got the wrong man." Chehero said as she seperated Luna from Usopp. "We all know you're alive, so don't overdo it and kill us too."

"A-...aaaaaaa-...urgh." from the last ten mintutes of Luna kissing him, the poor marksman fainted from the sudden kiss. Chehero grabbed him with one arm, then pulled Luna out of the water with her free hand. "That was totally out-of-this-world."

"Aren't we all?" asked Richie, who finished vomiting in the corner. "Blurp! Now, to get outta here."

"That is not possible." Horus muttered as if his voice was hopeless, everyone stared at him like he was crazy. Matt, however, threw, no, slammed his hat to the ground with rage.

"Ya know what's your problem?" Matt started to shout for no reason. "That's not possible, those words, I hate them! Can't you be positive for once?! I mean, there's a fucken hole in the ceiling, we can use it to get out!"

"..."

"Yo hohoho..." Brooke merely whispered that little laugh of his. "He has a point, Horus-san, ever since you joined us, you've been acting like it's all over."

"..."

Robin, who was closer to Horus than any of them, watched as Horus's calm, collected face become full of anger. Horus's warm smile turn vicious, he shouted at the teen,"Do you not know that my country is in a crisis right now?! That one of your little nakama has awakened the most dreadful, the most hellful creature known to man?! That the army of the Dream King shall rise and raise Hell in the entire Grand Line?! That it was us, the Seven Guardians's life mission to prevent this apocalypse?! And NOW, for the past 2,000 years, we had failed EVERYTHING?! Finally, to top everything off, my country's only hope, is stuck here in the Phoenix Fountain!"

It was dead silent yet again in the cavern, that was, until Franky started to make clanking noises. Luna sat down on a stone bench and turned,"Whatcha doin'?"

"Weapons Left." Franky briefly explained, he aimed up at the ceiling. "If Horus's country needs us, then I'm getting us all the hell out."

"There is no-"

"Oi, ossan." Luffy said, for once his voice was quiet. "Cut the crap and let us help you."

"I appreciate, this, but this is no situation you should get you and your crew mixed up in. It was my fault that that Sanji was taken, and-"

"Ya don't have apologize, just tell us how to get out."

"...how much?"

"We don't catch your drift there." Chopper said from the distance.

"How much do you pirates want? Pirates go after treasure, right?"

"Heh, once a pirate sets their eyes on a treasure, we won't let go." Robin smiled. "You could reward us such things?"

"The Yumegyptian Treasury, the fifth largest Treasury in the world. I shall give all of you half of what is there."

"..."

They all exchanged looks at each other since Nami wasn't around to say "YES! YES! I'll do it!", so Robin smiled again,"We accept the offer, but first, you have to tell us why cook-san isn't with us? You did mention him during your apology...no?"

Horus stared at them all blankly, Chopper piped up,"Sanji isn't on the Sunny with Zoro, isn't he?"

"Your suspicions have been true. It was all, for the sake of everyone, that me, Luna, and Sanji himself had decided...for now-"

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no." Matt shook his head in disagreement. "I know what you say, you'll tell us later, but right now is later. We need th answers NOW, Horus."

"I've already told Luna and Sanji, I do not like to repeat myself again, it's tiring. And also, the back door in this cavern is on the outside, and the gates will open from there. One of us goes with a party to get the rest of us out by pulling the lever on the surface. Simple, is it not?"

"OR...we can just blow up the door." Chehero said, holding several granades that were from Usopp's bag.

"Oi, where'd you get them?!" Usopp exclaimed.

"Go ahead and try, you'll succeed in blowing us up, the gates do not open from mortal weapons."

"Why dontcha let Luna do it?" Luffy pointed a thumb at her. "She can bite through anything."

Horus rolled his eyes, as if saying,"It won't work." and then sat down, he gestured at ht ceiling to give Luna an invitation to jump up a mile. Luna switched to demon point, then walked around in a full circle while looking up.

"I need Sanji to launch me."

"NOW you need him, yo hohohohoho! I'm guessing you never broke up with him!" Brooke predicted, he siped on his tea. "No-?"

As they discuesed on how to launched their furry friend up, the ground started to shake as if there's thunder underneath them. Each of the loss ballence, then, the Phoenix Statue started to disappear into the ground, along with the tears, and into a large drainage pipe. With that all in action, water started pouring in from the top of the ceiling, creating a large waterfall on top of them. In place of the statue, a tall figure wearing some sort of Venetian bird mask with a headdress attached to the back appeared. The water ceased and the pirates and guardian stood on what was large rock slabs that remained dry.

"Dra hehehehe, fight meh."

"Eh? Your the bird guy on the horse that attacked us!" Luffy pointed out, while pointing. "Where's my nakama?!"

"The water level's rising again in mere moments, the only way out is where I stand. You beat me, you all get to leave with our heads-"

"And if we loose?" Matt asked, holding the Jackal between his teeth while loading it.

"Say good bye to your Protector and hope he joins you in the darkest pits of hell! Soru!"

"Watch out, this man knows Rokushiki." warned Horus, he kept looking around the cave for the enemy, so did everyone else.

Usopp sarcastically commented,"Great, not only we're going to drown in a cave, we also get our heads sliced off! That's a great way for Usopp-sama to die!"

"Guys, didn't he say that the center is where we can get out?!" Chopper exclaimed, Horus held his arm out to stop him.

"It'll only be a trap, just because he vanished doesn't mean that the battle is over."

"Rankyanku: Peacock Blade Slasher!"

"Eh?! Doesn't Vivi do that?!" Luna shouted, half expecting a peacock string to come out of nowhere. There were several blades colored green and blue that raced towards her from behind, immediately, she did a back flip, allowing the blades to pass under her. "Matt, your turn!"

Matt was able to evade them by bending over backwards and letting them breeze past his bow tie and hat. Just before they reached Robin, he fired several rounds, causing them to shatter in front of Robin's face.

"Sorry, you okey?"

"I'm fine." Robin called out to him, she suddenly saw the man sneak up from behind the band manager. So, she crossed her arms across her chest and than arms sprouted from his back and one of them cluched his lower jaw. "Dose Fluer: Clutch!"

"GYA!"

The sound of a jaw detaching echoed through the room, and thanks to Robin, the enemy was brought to his knees. Luna took the liberty of holding him down by siting on his chest and keeping her foot on his throat. His feet flailed in the air as Matt and Richie sat on both of them, preventing him from using Rankyanku. And last, to top everything off, everyone else held their weapons (or hooves) above the bird man's head/beak.

Luna lowered her mouth to his ear and whispered,"You were saying about sending us to the darkest pits of hell?"

"You can go there yourself and lick the devil's ass wolf girl. Dra hehehe!" Horus watched Luna bear her fangs at him. "Oooo, not a nice doggie aren't you?"

"Wait, you speak with a detached jaw."

"That's right! Chopper." Richie said, turning to the reindeer. "Can you talk with a broken one?"

"No." Chopper and Brooke replied in unison, the skeleton held his sword closer to the wind pipe, threatening to slice it open in a swing.

"Well?" Matt questioned, offering the Jackal to anyone who wants to use it. "Let's do an execution, right here. How about we spill his guts all over and use his blood as paint, OR we do it Sanji's way, cook him up and eat him."

"Let's do that!" Luffy cheered. "He's a bird anyway."

"Looks good enough, let's start at the chest." Robin smiled, going into Matt's joke. Brooke moved his blade down, then the masked man started struggling.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!!"

Horus kicked the mask off while they started cheering for Brooke, only to reveal Akumu under the mask. "Captain Akumu of the Royal Guard of Yumegypt. Member of the Dream Order. Son of the Dream King. Secondary Prince of Yumegypt...and finally." he started to end the introduction. "Aniki of Prince Yume, first son of the Dream King."

"Go ahead, do as you desire to me." Akumu taunted, making Brooke stop and rendering everyone silent. "Dra hehehehe! Sanji's already dead by now, seeing that he busted a joint and lost an eye. Once he's gone, I'm supossed to kill all of you one by one, just like 2000 years ago-"

"Did I forget to add, he was one of the most powerful assassins on the Grand Line."

"You forget everything, Horus-san!"

"Do not blame me, it is my old age getting the best of me."

"So he manages to kill us all in the past, it's not like he'll do it again." Usopp shrugged, like it was nothing. They heard a loud thud from behind and a groan of someone going through pain, Chehero slapped the marksman while shaking her head in disappointment. "What?"

"You just had to say that, huh." Chehero turned around, only to see Sanji half dead. Then, Luna slapped Usopp across the face and jumped off Akumu.

"You just had to say that!" she shouted at him while racing over to Sanji while grabbing Chopper by the antlers and carrying him with her. "Chopper!"

"Hurry up, the only way out is that drainage pip down there, it'll lead you directly to the water temple. If you don't, well, have fun drinking the River's waters." the moment they turned back to him, he was gone in a second.

"OMIGOD! WE LOST OUR ENEMY!" Luffy screamed. "HOW THE HELL DID HE DO THAT?!"

"I don't know, but we have to get into that drainage pipe!" yelled Robin, they all gave her blank stares since she rarely shows extreme emotion. "Do I always have to simplify everything I say?"

"Please do." Franky nodded.

"We have to get the fuck out of here!" she yelled again.

"Ah." they all realized what she said. Meanwhile, Luna and Chopper were having problems of their own. Chopper's only concern was the chef's leg, wrapping bandages around to keep it from tearing off. Luna had little success of waking him up. The water level was rising dangerously so suddenly, that Franky, Horus, and Usopp were forced to carry the rest of the crew along the cave.

"We must find a way to get out!" Franky called out to Usopp and Horus, who nodded. "I think that pipe's cloged!"

"That means that the bastard tricked us!" Matt roared, hoping from rock to rock and reaching Luna, he stopped. "HOLY SHIT! Is that-?!"

"Yes, it's Sanji! Now, help us already!!" screamed Chopper and Luna, the water level was above their waists.

"Oh, I'm sorry, but it appears that I can't swim!!" Matt retorted at her. "Listen, I'll shoot at the ceiling and get the rocks to fall in to block hte water, it'll buy us time."

"And if it doesn't work?"

"...I love you." he murmured in her ear as he aimed the Jackal at the ceiling and the started firing several rounds. To everyone's disappointment, instead of rocks falling in to block the holes, MORE water came in and filled the room quicker. This made everyone who thought they were going to die flip out some more.

"SHIT! THIS IS HOW I ALMOST DIED IN ARABASTA!" shouted Usopp, who was starting to faint. "NOW THIS IS REALLY HOW IT ENDS!"

"Yo hohohohoho! It's been nice knowing all of you!" Brooke smiled...if he could that is.

"HURRY UP, THE WALL'S CAVING IN!"

(Anywho)

(I'm switching to Luna's POV, after reading the True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle, I realize that things are more discriptive in first point of view. I'm trying to improve my literature stuff in English class, so this is all practice, please don't blame me if anyone/body go out of character. Plus, I'm doin POV for this part only, I was just testing it out)

The things I remember, all were blurs. Chopper's hooves working their way around Sanji's leg, attempting to wrap a badage around. Matt's sarcastic comments as he tried to drag me away. Blood pouring like a fountain. The state of Sanji was too grusome, that even I couldn't look at him directly. Then, the wall of water crashing on all four of us, and my world goes white. It's like a stampede of raging band of horses pulverizing all of us into the ground with their steel like hooves.

Water pressure was building up around me and started to suffocate me, how can I not swim?! I'm just four or fives feet under the surface and I can't even lift my own arm up. My back hits the bottom of the floor first, fallowed by my legs, then head. I felt everything's done for, until something dragged me into th ground, which was pretty weird. I felt like a ghost for a moment as I sunk through and felt air from underneath. Cool air buffeted my neck, and I fall heavily onto a wooden floor. Chopper's screams start filling the small room that I had just appeared in.

"Horus it worked! You could stop!" yelled Chopper's high pitched voice, he placed a hoof on my neck. My eyes spun for moments before I registered where I was, the bathroom on the Sunny Go. Back pressed against the wall, hair and clothes drenched with water and blood, Horus suddenly crawled out of th mirror that hung above the sink.

"Oh! My god!" I nearly yelled in surprise. "That's-"

"It is how you got there, Chopper, go and aid Sanji, he's in a worser state than anyone else. Yume must've tortured him then left him to die in the desert, his limb is barely holding by skin."

Chopper gave a nod of understanding,"I'll try and fix this but I saw him and..." the reindeer lowered his voice, but my wolf ears picked up what he said easily. "...I think I have to cut it off...decapitate it."

"Do not grieve over it, here." Horus handed Chopper a bottle. "Pour it over his severe wounds."

"Right." and with that, the doctor scrambled out of the bathroom and into the hallway. Horus himself prepared to leave, but I stopped him with my arm groping the hem of his cloak.

"Why?" I asked, his movements stopped. "Why are we all going through this shit? Why are we doing something that'll kill us? Why is my sister taken from me?!"

"..."

"There is no Yume, is there? There's no Yumegypt or anything like that, and hte Phoenix Fountain is bogus. It was all a hoax like the Fannette Island thing...I figured it all out."

"How'd you know?" he turned around, he looked nervous. I gave a small wolfish smile, he's cornered!

"The Seven Guardian's Coat of Arms, before, Sanji and I mingled with the cloth, and found out that it was the Marines' flag. Then there was the bomb and me free falling. You grabbed Sanji's cloak so he won't be able catch me. And next, the train. I sniffed out over a billion pounds of gunpowder, guns, and Marines too, I bet your friends are just captains. Finally, at the meeting, you noted how me and Matt behaved. One of them Guardians was a vampire named Ketsueki. Also, to add, those vsions I have, they're actually Becky, you managed to use her against me to think of the wrong things! The entire Straw Hat Crew has a bountry of 809,000,050 beli(1), and no bountry hunter can resist us. Pretty smart of you to seperate us from each other, though, I'll give you credit on that."

"So...you had figured it all out." Horus sighed, but then a finger shot at me. "SHIGAN!"

"You pretended to be a friend, but you're actually a foe! That's why you won't tell us any stories or explain anything we want to know because you have know damn clue on what to say or even know what to say!" I shouted at him, trying to create as much noise as possible to grab anyone's attention. "YOU BITCH FACED BASTARD!"

"A bounty of 70,000,000 beli, the Hunter, I want your head!" roared Horus, a large sword swished out at me, and I managed to duck. "And also Black Leg's, god, I need all your heads!"

I managed to dash out onto the deck from the window and rammed into Luffy.

"Oi, what's with the screaming?" Luff asked me, I swooped over him and Horus ran in hot pursuit.

"RANKYANKU!"

"EH?!"

"Luffy, Horus is part of the Marines, kill him!" I ordered, my captain stared blankly at Horus. "R-robin!"

Suddenly, Zoro jumped down from the crow's nest,"What's with the ye-oh my god!" I pounced at him just in time for him to miss Horus's newly launched rankyanku, which sliced Tsuki's sakura in half. The shinigami flew out of nowhere with his death note.

"WHO THE HELL DID THAT TO MY MINI-APPLE TREE?!" Tsuki roared in a godly way, he took out his death note and pen. "WELL?!"

"EVERYONE, SHUT UP! THE NOISE ISN'T GOOD FOR SANJI RIGHT NOW!" shouted the Sunny Go's doctor, who opened the door in a forcefull way that it almost flew off its hinges. Horus let out another Rankyanku that nearly made ht Sunny Go capsize from hte force. Franky suddenly came out with a pissed off look.

"WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!" shouted Franky, who threatened to hit anyone responsible for the rukus. Zoro had his swords out, Luffy was readying his fists, and me, I just got ready with my feet. All of us faced Horus. "Horus?"

"Do not make it any harder than it has to be, I demand a momentary pause in everything."

No of us let our guard down.

"...I'll face only one of you in a hand-to-hand combat, if you win, I'll let you free from the law. If not well, you can head to Enies Lobby with us...agreed?"

We all faced Luffy, who nodded and placed his fists down. Zoro unwiling sheathed his three swords one by one, clearly he wanted a fight with someone right now.

"Who is it that you wanna fight?" I asked, my voice filling up with a competing tone.

"In a fair fight, I know all of you would kill me instantly, like the CP9, so...I take...oh, say Sanji for a hand-to-hand combat."

"S-sanji-kun?! Oh my god, too much pure pressure."

And with that, I fainted right on the spot.


UNFAIR! Horus a Marine captain?!

So anyway, I introduced fan fiction to a non-anime fan at school and I let her do what ever she wanted to any of the characters and seems to have had so much fun doing it. I let her do the entire Sanj getting severly injured (it was her idea) in this chapter. You have to admit, though, she overdid it a bit.

Then, my English teacher comes (he's an anime fan too oddly, he's 30 and he likes Nami and Brooke, so yeah) and says,"Oh, you're doing fan fiction? For what? One Piece, can I do a few paragraphs?"

I swear, he did, like, the Phoenix Fountain scene all the way and watced me do the rest. Really awkward...really awkward...I mean, my teacher likes anime!

The POV was done entirely by me. When Luna figures out that Horus was behind everything, along with Yume, I had fun piecing it all together, like a murder case. The clues were pretty obvious, especially when Sanji misses his catch with Luna.

(1)The bounty of the crew is originally 700,000,050 beli, but since Matt and Luna got bounties of their own (34,000,000 beli for Matt and 70,000,000 beli for Luna) I decide to add them and ht crew now costs 809,000,050 beli.
