Hey! Hope you enjoy this! And please review! Sorry if someone is OOC

"Look Zoro! There's some sort of lab!" Luffy's voice bounced around the stairwell as the straw hat pirates finally reached the bottom of the stairs, which led to what seemed like a lab.

Everyone took a look around as they observed the many foreign technology that decorated the room. The room itself was once most likely white, but now a dark grey with cracked wallpapers peeling off the walls. A series of old computers and weird crystals covered the tables along with books and papers stacked high up. The floor had a good amount of cracked tiles and broken glass from what was likely vials. And a murky stench of age fills the room with a weird sense of uneasiness.

"Look at me!" Luffy's joyful voice snapped the groups look of wonder as they turned to spot the dancing captain in an oversized lab coat, with goggles over his eyes. Chuckling at his cheerful and somewhat cute appearance they approached the smiling boy.

Zoro looked around once more as he searched for the original area of the earlier presence and spotted a door that seemed to be clamped completely shut. Nudging the captain he pointed to the door and followed as the rubber man as he began to hop to the iron door. Nami stepped up and volunteered to pick lock the door and did so within a few minutes.

A dark hallway welcomed the group before Luffy went off into the darkness without any problem. "Wait up you idiot!" Nami yelled after the running captain before sighing in annoyance, following right behind as the rest of the crew came right behind her.

"Do you think this is where the two missing people are at?" Usopp asked as he hid behind the group. A frown came across Choppers face as he considered all the diseases from a corpse that could possibly hurt the crew.

"Probably, but it would be unSUPER if they're dead when we find them" Franky cringe at the thought of finding two rotten corpses.

"This place looks quite old, I wonder what it was used for?" Robin asked out loud as she skimmed through a few books she snagged from the stacks.

"Guys! I think I found them!" Luffy's voice jumped against the halls as the group rounded the last corner. Inside the next room was a soft blue glow which shined from 2 giant blue crystals in the middle of the room. Upon further inspection they were able to see two figures frozen inside the crystals. In the first one was a man about the same age as Luffy, his body was as buff as zoro. Pink hair stood up in spikes, frozen in place. The man had chains from the ground wrap around his torso and arms pulling him into a 'T', long gashes and giant bruises decorates all his limbs. The man had his head facing the ceiling, his expression frozen in mid shout, mouth agape and sharp teeth bared as his eyes were closed.

In the second crystal was a blonde girl, her body just like Nami but with a bit more muscle. Chains with spikes wrapped around her in a similar way as the man but with an extra amount around her arms and torso. Multiple spikes dug into her skin as trickles of blood flowed down her as and legs. Her head was turned towards the pink haired man while her face was frozen in desperation, tears frozen against her cheeks and mouth slightly open.

The view of the two frozen humans seemed to tug at their hearts as they could somehow feel the fear and desperation the man and woman went through. Chopper quickly assessed all of the injuries with a trained eye and narrowed it at the sight of the spikes on the girls chains, while Luffy stood in front of the crystals a look of wonder and an indescribable emotion in his eyes. "Can we break it?" He asked innocently as he turned to the navigator.

"AS IF! YOU'D KILL THEM!" her reply made the captain pout as he crossed his arms in similarity to a kid nearing a tantrum. Turning to Robin she gave a questioning look "does the book say anything?"

The archeologist shook her head no as she snapped the book shut. "Sadly no, our only option is to try and break it"

"Do the guy first! I don't want the sweet blonde angel to get hurt!" Sanji began to cooe about the blonde girl's beauty noodling around the room.

Franky began his usual pose as he stood next to Zoro "Just be SUPER careful" At this Chopper began readying his medical kit with what he needed to aid either one of the trapped mages, Usopp helping with what he could.

Psyched up, Luffy swung his arms towards the crystal with the boy in it. "GOMU GOMU NO-BAZOOKA!" in response to his punch the crystal shattered and fell to the ground, revealing the man. As if he weren't frozen for hundreds of years he began to yell once more and thrash against the multiple chains, clangs and groaning echoing from the supports.

Before the crew could react the man was out and charging the other crystal. A gasp left some of the crews mouth as they watched his fists light on fire and shatter the crystal upon impact "LUCY!" The girl returned to consciousness as she turned to the guy.

"Natsu!" tears began to fall once more as she gritted her teeth in pain, the spikes digging in deeper from her struggle. Her eyes grew heavy as she fell unconscious. Once again the boy Natsu lit on fire and ripped the chains off of the girl before pulling her into a protective hug. Finally taking notice to the crew the boy growled at Luffy and visibly prepared to fight, his eyes dark with anger, fear and confusion.

Taking quick notice Zoro yelled at Luffy "take the coat off!" the captain complied and took the coat off but not without a confused pout.

Natsu began to calm down but not entirely as he eyed the group of pirates."why'd you let us out?" his voice low in an animalistic snarl.

"You're injured, let us help you." Chopper bravely took a step towards the angry pinkette. A loud growl left Natsu's throat as he clutched Lucy closer to his body in a protective stance. Chopper observed the angry man and found the cause of his behavior. Natsu's pupils were blown wide, showing the fact that he was drugged "You're drugged. Let me help you" his voice stayed calm as he inched closer.

Natsu finally felt the effects of the drugs he was injected with by the scientist as his adrenaline faded. Fatigue and a somehow comforting darkness enveloped his mind as he reluctantly fell unconscious.

The crew watched as he fell backwards with a thud before Chopper rushed to help the two unconscious people.

Everyone stood still as they kept their guard up, Zoro with his hand on his sheathed katanas while Sanji shifted his weight to one foot. Luffy followed Chopper as he started cheering about the two unconscious people to join his crew.

"They're unconscious you idiot!" Nami yelled in annoyance as she slowly walked across the sea of crystal shards.

"Aww! But he could fight like Ace! Did you see the fire?! It was so cool!" his eyes shining like stars.

"OWW! It was SUPEEERRRR!" Franky cheered as he did his signature pose.

"I-It's not like I'm scared or anything!" Usopp's voice wavered as he failed to stand tall and instead began to shake.

Not at all caring about the other men, Sanji ran up to the injured blonde "Melorine! Is she okay Chopper?!" Sanji asked as he turned to the quiet doctor.

"They're not in a serious condition but they both lost some blood, especially the girl." His frown was evident as he continued to examine them for anymore injuries. "For now let's get them back to the ship. I wanna run some more tests".

"I wonder why they were trapped for so long?" Robin looked around in wonder. Just like the previous room this had tables with stacks of books and computers, nothing significant other than the multiple unbroken vials and syringes of what was most likely the drugs forced into the mages. Another thing that was different was that the room seemed to have modern technology that did not fit with the old computers.

Odd. Well, atleast she had new books to read.
