AN: I don't own One Piece.
Chapter 3
The Nap
Sanji turned around from cooking dinner when he heard someone open the door. "Ah, Robin-swan! I have been graced by the presence of an angel!", he said with hearts as eyes.
"Cook-san, can I talk to you for a minute?", asked Robin with the cat in her arms.
"Of course, anytime" said Sanji.
"You shouldn't let Luffy play with the cat, he's too rough with him", said Robin.
"Oh, I see what you're doing!", thought Zoro looking up at Robin. He meowed a thank you.
"Did that idiot hurt Neko-chan?", asked Sanji looking down at the cat in Robin's arms.
"No, not yet. Longnose-kun and I got Neko-san away from him before he could hurt him", said Robin while petting the cat.
"Oh, good", said Sanji letting out a sigh of relief.
"Oh, Cook-san. Don't you think Neko-chan is a little too feminine for a male cat?", asked Robin.
"Oh, it's a male? What about Neko-kun until I think of a better name?", said Sanji.
"Baka!!", thought Zoro.
"Yes, that's much better. Just make sure Neko-san is safe", said Robin smiling. She put the cat on the floor and turned to leave.
"Thank you, Robin-swan!!", said Sanji with hearts for eyes.
"Great! Stuck in here with the Ero-cook", thought Zoro as he watched Robin leave. "Well, I might as well take a nap. I haven't had one all day." Zoro looked around the kitchen for a good napping spot. He saw one of the chairs at the table and decided that was a good spot. He walked over to the chair, aimed for a second, and jumped. He was not used to being a cat just yet and misjudged the jump. He hit his head on the table. He forgot all about his claws and tried to hold on to the chair with just his paws instead. He fell off the chair and did not land on his feet like all cats usually do. He landed on his back with a surprised meow. Zoro got up and shook his head, and then heard laugher. Sanji had seen the whole thing and was bent over laughing. Zoro tried to say, "Oh, shut it! Kusai-cook!" But all that came out was a hiss. Zoro decided it might be a good idea to work on his jumping away from the cook so he wouldn't get laughed at. Zoro walked off to find a safer place to take a nap. Zoro curled up in the corner by the couch and the wall and was about to close his eyes when he was picked up off the floor and was rolled onto his back in someone's arms. "Hey, put me down!!", he tried to say. But, of course, all that came out was, "Maw!! Growl."
"You didn't hurt yourself, did you? Neko-kun?", Sanji asked still chuckling, but a little concerned.
"Of course I didn't, you idiot!!", Zoro thought as he tried to bite the hand that was petting his stomach.
"Come on let's take you to Chopper and see if you're ok", said Sanji heading to the infirmary with Zoro still in his arms. "I wouldn't want Robin-swan to think I mistreated you."
"What? No!! I'm fine!!!", Zoro tried to say but, "Meow? Hiss!! Meow!!!", is all that came out. Zoro tried to get out of Sanji's arms but Sanji was too strong. So Zoro just settled for growling the whole way.
Sanji found Chopper in the infirmary at his desk. "Oi, Chopper. Could you make sure Neko-kun is okay? He tried to jump in a chair, hit his head on the table and fell off the chair. He landed on his back, not on his feet, so I was a little worried", said Sanji still holding the cat on it's back and it was growling loudly.
"Sure", said Chopper motioning for Sanji to put the cat on his desk.
When Sanji put the cat on the desk Zoro tried to attack him. "Ah! What's with this cat?! He's evil!!", said Sanji trying to get away from the "evil cat". Zoro launched himself at Sanji again. His left front paw slipped off the desk. He fell and landed on his back again.
"What's wrong with this stupid cat? He's worse than Marimo! He doesn't even know up from down! Even Marimo knows that!", said Sanji looking down at the cat on its back on the floor.
Zoro hissed at Sanji but didn't get up. He had decided it was a lot safer right were he was.
"Yes, that is weird", said Chopper looking down at the cat on the floor. "Cats always land on their feet. Maybe he has an inner ear infection", said Chopper as he picked the cat up off the floor.
"Okay, I'll leave him with you while I finish dinner", said Sanji as he walked out the door.

Chopper examined Zoro. He looked in his ears, down his throat, in his eyes. He listened to his heart beat, and took a blood sample. Chopper examined the cat very thoroughly, but found nothing wrong with him. The last thing he checked was the cats temperature, knowing the cat wouldn't like that at all.
Zoro never liked being in the infirmary. You never knew what Chopper might decide to check. But he didn't think it would be too bad as a cat. What could Chopper do to a cat anyway? He was actually a little relaxed. He was just waiting for Chopper to get through so he could take a nap. The next thing he knew, Chopper had suck a thermometer in his butt. He let out an suprised meow and tried to bite Chopper, but Chopper held him still. As soon as Chopper let him go Zoro jumped off the desk. He didn't land on his feet, but he didn't let that slow him down. He ran under the bed. Not knowing what Chopper might try to check next Zoro was determined not to let Chopper get a hold of him again. Chopper was not going to touch him again without shedding blood. "What else do cats have to go though?", thought Zoro as he hid under the bed.
Chopper, seeing that Zoro's temperature was normal, tested the blood sample he had taken earlier.
Zoro saw that Chopper wasn't going to come after him with more tests, so he decided to take a nap under the bed. Soon he was sound asleep and snoring.
About 30 minutes later Chopper headed to the kitchen to talk to Sanji.
"Hey, Chopper what'd you find out?", asked Sanji.
"He's perfectly healthy. There's nothing wrong with him at all", said Chopper.
Oh, that's good, and weird, too", said Sanji. "Where is he?"
"He's taking a nap under the bed", said Chopper scratching his head. "I didn't think cats snored", he said more to himself than to Sanji.
"Okay, just let him sleep. Maybe he'll be in a better mood when he wakes up. He's one grouchy cat!", said Sanji as he turned back around to finish dinner.

Nami enters the kitchen to finded out about this "Green Cat" that Luffy, had told her about. Luffy had told her that Robin had the cat, but Robin had given it back to Sanji.
"There's no way that there can be a green cat. It must have been dyed", Nami thought to herself. "Sanji-kun, where's the green cat?", she asked Sanji.
"Nami-chwan!!", Sanji called with hearts in his eyes and doing that Sanji noodle spin thing that shouldn't be humanly possible. "He's in the infirmary taking a nap."
"Okay, thanks", Nami said and headed to the infirmary. "I've got to see this."
"Nami-chwan, be careful. He's a moody cat", said Sanji being serious for once.
"He can't be any worse than Zoro right?", said Nami.
"Your right Never mind. He can't be worse than Marimo", said Sanji with a smile.
Opening the door to the infirmary Nami said, "Chopper, where's the cat?"
Chopper, sitting at his desk, turned around in his chair and said, "Oh, the cat? He's under the bed, but be carful he's a little upset."
Nami bent down to look at the cat under the bed. "Wow, he is green", she said looking at the sleeping cat. She crawled under the bed and pulled the sleeping cat out from under it.
Zoro woke up and tried to say "What's going on?", but all that came out was a meow.
Nami looked at the green cat in her lap and said, "He's kinda cute."
Zoro hissed at her not liking being called "cute" at all.
"Sanji-kun was right. He is a moody cat!", said Nami.
Zoro just growled at her knowing whatever he tried to say would just come out as some cat weird sound.
"Chopper, why is he green?", asked Nami petting the cat. The cat started purring as she started scratching him under his chin. "Well, maybe he wasn't all that moody", she thought as she listened to him purr. She actually liked cats a lot.
I don't know why he's green. He's perfectly healthy, and he's not dyed.", said Chopper.
Nami headed back to the kitchen to ask about dinner with the cat in her arms.
