Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

My eyes jolted open as I heard the scream echoing off the surrounding trees. I stood up as fast as I could, thinking we were under attack. I looked around, past the fire, and focused on Nami, sitting up from where she rested moments before, clutching both hands on each side of her head.

I ran over to Nami and knelt down to her side as I put a hand on her back. Her eyes were completely shut, squeezing them shut as hard as she could while she held the sides of her head with her hands, fingers digging at her scalp, her palms covering her ears.

"Nami! What's wrong?!" I asked her, shaking her lightly to get her to snap out of it. She didn't respond to me.

"Nami-Swan!" I could hear Sanji running up.

"Nami, Oi!" Luffy says as he runs over towards Nami, with the rest of the crew close on his heels, everyone in shock, not understanding the situation. Luffy knelt down in front of Nami putting his hands on hers, still against her head, and lowered them to her knees. She opened her eyes, staring straight into Luffys, as tears started to form.

"Luf…fy" Nami's voice faded rapidly as her eyes shut, but her face became more relaxed. She fell backwards towards me as I caught her and placed her back gently on the ground, while my eyebrows raised in concern.

"NAMI!" Luffy yelled, his eyes full of concern and panic.

"Chopper, is she okay?" Luffy yelled over at Chopper as he made it to Nami's side, checking her vital signs.

"Yes, her heart rate is lowering, but she doesn't have any injuries. It wasn't a physical injury." Chopper said, raising his hoof from Nami's neck after checking her pulse. "She will be okay, Luffy. She's resting."

Thinking to myself, understanding it must've been another nightmare. As I shifted my eyes from her to Luffy, I could see his eyes focusing on Nami, I could tell how much he wanted to protect her, help her. I left him alone, to be at her side.

I let Franky and Sanji get some rest as I took the next night shift look out. My eyes occasionally drifting over to where Nami laid, Luffy still by her side, Chopper checking on her every now and then.

As the hours passed, Luffy fell asleep nearby Nami. My eyes drifted around glancing at the thick foliage, everything was normal. Just as I felt myself dozing off from watch duty, I heard the leafs of a bush, as I jolted fully awake again, almost having a heart attack.

I turned towards the direction of the eerie plant, slowly walking forward, just as another bush began to shake a few more feet away, in panic I raised my Kabuto ready to fire, but I couldn't aim since I couldn't see what I was aiming for. My eyes started to wonder up and down the line of trees and bushes, as my heart raced. Another bush, even closer now, started to rattle I pointed my Kabuto about to attack. Just about to fire and…

Usopp

As it rang in my ears, I lowered my weapon.

That voice… I couldn't mistaken his voice.

"Zoro!" I completely lowered my weapon, knowing it was our dear Nakama, we were desperate to find. As I trekked closer to the bush I stopped in my tracks just as a pair of deep red eyes appeared and stared directly at me.

"Z-Zo-ro?" I couldn't find my voice. Just as quickly as the eyes appeared, they seemed to vanish. The bush stopped shaking and I could hear a pair of feet running away and the sound fading off in the distance. It took me a moment to realize he was leaving.

"Wait! Zoro! Where are you going?!" I yelled , but no response was given.

I turned back towards camp, the sky starting to lighten above the canopy, I could tell it was morning… I walked past where Luffy and Nami slept and looked down at them sleeping peacefully. I didn't want to tell them that Zoro was just here… Nami didn't need the stress and Luffy worried about Nami. Besides, I'm sure we will cross him again soon.

I looked back into the dwindling fire, no more fuel to feed its hunger, as I watched the last bits of flame die out and ashes are all that remained.
