Bold: Bunny-Chan's thoughts

Italic: Thoughts


(Eve's P.O.V.)

I vaguely remember trying to scream as I clung desperately to the back of the now gorilla-sized Upgrade, the wind stealing away any breath to scream. I screwed my eyes shut as the trees and countryside disappeared behind us. I felt the Upgrade tense beneath me, before feeling a brief moment of weightlessness. Snapping my eyes open for a split second I felt tears spring to my eyes before the wind took those too...Jerk. We were jumping from building to building, my legs swinging limply in shock. I'm going to die! The bunny lied! Never trust a bunny! I proceeded to curse furiously. The Upgrade only chuckled as he calmly pushed off from another rooftop. "You're not gonna die, silly! I've got ya!~" He sang, his voice a baritone because of his temporarily increased size. He turned his head first left, and then right, while still jumping from roof to roof.

"Now where is that silly bar...Really, I don't even know why you wanna go there, you're underage after all. And it's usually full of stinky men...Ah there it is!" He said, gathering on his haunches, before launching us into the air and landing behind a stack of crates on the roof. Shrinking back down to his chibi size, we poked our heads around the edge of the crates. Zoro had just saved Nami from her "crew members". I silently heaved a sigh of relief, I wasn't late for once in my life. Thank God...I might actually do something useful to put on my resumé before they put me in the mental hospital. Now to focus on not getting myself killed before I can get home… I mused, returning my attention to the scene before me. My eyes widened a fraction when they landed on a smirking Buggy.

"I don't remember him being so…not dorky…" I said, mostly to myself as I observed his somewhat dark appearance. He was saying something audible, but for some reason I couldn't understand what he was saying. "Bunny-chan...Why can't I understand what he's saying?" I asked, looking down at him, sweat-dropping as I realized he was hiding behind my legs. Coward, he's worse than me! And I'm afraid of heights! I vaguely heard him murmuring something about "scary clowns" before he snapped out of it, meeting my eyes with a sheepish grin.

"Oh yeah~! I forgot to mention that I haven't turned on the translator yet! One Piece is Japapanese after all!" I hissed at him to be quiet, thinking for a moment. So he's speaking Japanese? Does that mean they won't be able to understand me? Oh crud! Now how am I gonna- "Ack!" I yelped, smacking my hands over my mouth and ducking back behind the crates as fast as possible.

I pulled whatever shocked me so badly off my neck only to start throttling it. "What the heck was that for you moron?!" I hissed angrily, pissed off. That is, until I realized I could understand what Buggy was saying. I looked down at the winded bunny in my hands. "What did you do?" I asked him, shaking him awake.

"Blahaha please stahp…~" His face was a bit purple...Maybe I went a little too far...I thought, apologetically. He shook his head and hopped to his feet. "I activated your translator mode. Now you can understand Japapanese~" He sang happily, hopping around in a circle while giggling. I smacked him lightly on the head.

"Now's not the time for that! So can I speak it too?" I asked, dreading another shock. Bunny-chan sheepishly scratched at the back of his head, sweating like crazy. "Well, you see...Look! Zoro's Onigiri!" He said suddenly pointing over my shoulder. My head snapped around just as I realized my mistake.

Smoke curled off my body as I twitched on the ground, trying not to rip that Stupid little...ugly freaking … I proceeded to swear in my head, grinding my teeth as I sat up. I gasped as I heard Zoro attack Buggy. Dropping my backpack next to a cowering Bunny-chan, I activated my gloves and peeked out. Zoro had just sheathed his swords, turning around to inspect Luffy's cage.

"Huh? That guy's so weak!" Luffy said, surprised as Nami. A grim frown was on my face as I saw Buggy float up. I grit my teeth, determination coursing throughout my body. It's now or never, I can't miss this catch! My legs tensed, before I jumped over the crates.

The knife rose, and stabbed at Zoro's back. My hands closed around the blade, arms tense, not budging against the persistent hand. "I don't like cowards." I said quietly, head turning to glare at a surprised Buggy and his crew.

"Who the heck?"

"Whoa!"

"How is she not bleeding?!" I heard, come from his crew but I ignored them in favor of glaring at Buggy instead, hands still firmly grasping the knife and hand.

"Who are you? Have you come for my head?" Buggy asked, anger written all over his face at being foiled. A part of me noticed how quiet Luffy was being. Nami was choking on air, eyes glued to the floating hand that had been inches away from stabbing Zoro. Even Zoro looked stunned as he turned around to see a random girl had just saved him.

I blinked slowly, grinning inside at my success. I smirked at Buggy. "Well aren't you an arrogant cabin boy, eh red nose?" I said, tauntingly.I don't know why but whenever I'm given the chance to annoy the crap out of someone, I usually can't help myself as I chuckle at their expressions.I heard Luffy emit a loud bark of laughter at Buggy's stunned, furious face. I heard pathetic squeaking of shock from his crew, and had to stifle a chuckle myself. Instead I straightened, a smirk on my face as I heard a familiar voice mentally beat me up for my stupidity.

You moron you just said you were going to try to NOT DIE! Wait, Bunny? Is that you? GET THE HECK OUT OF MY HEAD YOU FREAKING PERVERT! How did you even get in here?! Oh, well~ As your upgrade we're sort of connected, so I can materialize myself inside of your consciousness instead of having a physical body if I want to. So you can hide in my head instead of facing the threat. How brave of you. I jolted slightly as I realized Buggy had shouted something while starting to froth at the mouth.

"WHO HAS A BIG RED NOSE?!" His veins stood out on his neck as his face turned the color of a tomato. Wow his nose really does look like a tomato! N-Now you've done it! We're dead… Shut up, we're not dead 'til Alvida sings. Who's that? ..Nevermind, watch and learn, lessons on how to tick someone off: Chapter One: Insult their appearance.

I took the hand and knife in my right hand and pointed it at him, smirking widely. "You~" I said sweetly. Luffy shot off another laugh while Nami nearly fell over. I don't know what Zoro did, because I was too focused on Buggy.

"I'LL SHOW YOU WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU INSULT THE BUGGY PIRATE CREW!" I wrestled the knife from the hand and stomped on his hand, causing him to howl in pain. Pinning it down with my foot, I turned to Zoro, the knife forgotten about on the ground.

"You might want to take your ..Er, friend there and run. I'll-" BOSS! LOOK OUT! I cried out in pain as the knife drove itself into my side. I'd like to say I started to mentally berate myself like: Baka! You turned your back on the enemy! That's the first thing you learn NOT to do! But I would be lying if I said I wasn't mentally cursing my head off as I fell to my knees, the knife wiggling and trying to lodge itself deeper into my body. I coughed up blood, blocking my screams I wanted to so badly to let out. Black tainted my vision and sounds were muffled as I focused all my energy on not passing out from the pain. Vaguely I heard Luffy shouting something and Zoro trying to tell me to stay awake. Nami was furious at Buggy, but all I heard was his cackling as my shoulders slumped and the black took over.


(Zoro's P.O.V.)

I stared at the blonde-haired girl in shock. Crap, I even knew he had a Devil Fruit! I was being careless! Who was this girl? Where did she come from, and why wasn't she getting cut by the knife?! I watched as she taunted Buggy fearlessly, practically flaunting his own hand in his face. I felt a little respect for her grow inside me. She stomped on his hand and turned to me.

"You might want to take your ..Er, friend there and run I'll-" My eyes widened as I saw the knife protruding from her side. Crap I forgot about his other hand! I grabbed her by her shoulders as she starting coughing up blood, trying to keep her upright and awake as Buggy laughed.

"Hey, can you hear me? Don't fall asleep! Hey stay awake, girl!" Her eyelids fluttered weakly as she lost consciousness. I cursed, setting her down gently as the other girl rushed over. I glared at Buggy while Luffy shouted at Buggy.

"Stabbing from the back is cowardly, Big Nose!" I turned as I saw Buggy's face contort into one of anger. "WHO ARE YOU CALLING A BIG NOSE?!" Buggy roared, launching one of his hands at Luffy.

"Luffy!" I yelled, watching the knife slip through the bars of the cage and into Luffy's face. He looked up at Buggy with the knife between his teeth and a grin of determination. I smirked, He's insane, but he's Captain.

"I'm swear, I'm gonna take you down!" I heard him say, and I tuned out Buggy as I looked down at the girl, watching the orange-haired girl put pressure on her wound with a piece of cloth to stop the bleeding.

"There's so much blood…This is it, we're dead..." I heard her murmur.

"Stop being so dramatic, Luffy'll think of something."

"Zoro! Run away!" My head snapped to his face as I spluttered. "What?!" And then I saw his face, telling me to take the girl and the cage, and to run. I smirked, and nodded. "Okay."

I easily deflected the Bara Bara cannon attack Buggy sent my way as I ran over to the cannon, easily flipping it over to point at Buggy and his crew. "Oi!" I shouted over the crew's shrieks of panic. "I need a light!" I said, directing my words to the orange-headed girl who looked surprised.

"E-Eh? O-Okay!" She ran over, awkwardly passing me the girl before lighting the cannon.

The cannon fired, and before the smoke could clear I slung the unconscious girl onto one of my shoulders, looking at the orange-haired girl. "This is a good time to escape, who are you anyways?"

"I-I'm a thief…" She stuttered.

I turned to Luffy as he said, "That kid...is our navigator."

I sighed, feeling a pang of sympathy for her. I watched as she yelled at him, saying how he's an idiot and should work on getting out of the cage. "No, it's okay. You just stay in the cage!" I said, hoisting the cage onto my other shoulder with a grunt. Man, I'm out of shape, this shouldn't be this hard. I need to train more. I thought, grimly.


(Still Zoro)

I slammed the cage down on a random roof a few blocks away. I stared at the still unconscious girl, oddly enough she seemed to stop bleeding but I was still worried about her. "We're being in a dangerous situation here..! But what's been started must be finished I suppose." I ignored Luffy as he struggled with the cage, taking off my bandana and using it to bandage the girl's wound. I sighed and hoisted her up on my shoulder again, along with the cage.

"We'd better keep moving."


(Eve's P.O.V.)

Everything hurt. That was the first thing I realized as I came to. The second thing I realized was, someone had bandaged me. Boss! Are you okay?! I cringed at the loud voice in my head and groaned softly. Shut up...My head hurts dang it. Where are we? We're in the mayor's house! You're in his guest room. Zoro brought you and Luffy here after you got really hurt! I was worried~. He whined. I sighed, feeling slightly sorry for worrying him. Sorry. Where are they now? Just outside, talking to a guy with funky hair and a lion, Oops- My eyes shot open as the ceiling caved in I rolled off the bed and under it in an agonizing roll.

"Ow…" I whimpered, feeling my side ache. Though it should hurt more...Right? I just got stabbed! Oh um, I sorta used some spare experience I found lying around to stop your bleeding and most of the pain… Wait, where did you get the experience? All I did was stop a knife. I used the wound experience! I heard people shouting outside, and heard rubble moving. We'll continue this conversation later, Bun-chan.

"Oi! Girl! Are you alright?! Can you hear me?!" I heard Zoro call. I sighed, bracing myself for the pain as I rolled myself out from under the bed and shoved some rubble out of the way until I could breathe again.

"More or less!" I called, wincing from the pain as the dust settled, revealing Zoro a few feet away from me. A flash of relief showed on his face, before he starting pulling rubble away to get to me. "I've woken up under better circumstances, admittedly." Zoro didn't grin at my joke as he checked me over for new wounds. Seeing none, he looked at me strangely. I blinked back at him, plaster in both of our hair and dirt on our clothes. "What?" I asked, getting impatient for him to say something. He crossed his arms over his chest.

"Your arteries were stabbed, you were bleeding badly but then suddenly it stopped. How did you do it?" He asked, a suspicious light in his eyes. I frowned, Looks like Bunny-chan really wasn't kidding...I didn't think I'd faint from such a little wound. This might be a problem in the future.

"I didn't do anything, I guess my blood is just thick." I smirked, not lying because Bunny-chan was the one to apparently stop my bleeding. Zoro merely grunted, before suddenly picking me up in a bridal carry. I winced as fresh pain flared in my side and pulled on Zoro's cheek, stretching the skin. "Oi, please put me down I can walk." I said, releasing his face. Zoro ignored me and walked out of the rubble to a poodle-mayor, Nami, an empty cage...And a giant lion with a furry on it. Daaaaaaaaaaaaannngg that's one big kitty. "Zoro put me down, I'm not asking!" I said, sticking my tongue out, before wriggling out of Zoro's arms with a grunt.

"So what's with the furry?" I asked, looking at Mohji. Don't get me wrong, I've got nothing against furries, I'm pretty sure most of my friends are furries. But dang I hate that guy. First he pretty much scars Shushu for life, and then he has the audacity to ask Luffy for mercy? Nuh-uh, not happening. I'm gonna get a few hits in on this guy even if it kills me. Maybe I'll teach his kitty some manners too.

Mohji paid me no mind, eyes trained on Zoro, who stared back emotionlessly. "Roronoa Zoro! I have found you! When I kill you Buggy will reward me greatly. Kill him Richie!" I got out of Zoro's way, quickly spotting the pet food store, thankfully still in one piece. Spotting Shushu safe and sound, I stood by him and watched Zoro pull out his swords and easily take down Richie. He was about to attack Mohji, but I sprinted forward and grabbed Mohji by his shirt, giving him my best glare. He started sweating and blabbering about "mercy" and all that crap. He didn't get up after I clocked him and sent him to kiss the ground. I shook my hand to relieve the slight pain that came from punching his sad excuse for a face.

Zoro was smirking at my handiwork. "That's some punch, he didn't stand a chance once his lion was taken out."

I hummed in agreement. "Yep, now let's go find your friend, yeah?" I said, turning to him, only to see Luffy, Nami, and Boodle coming up behind him.

Nami and Boodle were speechless while Luffy was grinning at me. "Hey girl! Join my crew!" He demanded.

I shook my head, sticking my tongue out at him. "Nope! Don't wanna!"

Zoro laughed at me. "Good luck with that, he doesn't take 'no' for an answer." I shrugged, looking towards the direction of the bar. Now to- Zoro pulled me to the ground as the entire row of houses next to use exploded. I was shaking, even though I tried to hide it. O..Oh my kami...T-That...Was … AWESOME! I smiled breathlessly, thanking Zoro as he helped me up. I turned to the group, grinning madly. "Well this is going to be...Fun."
