Time froze, everyone staring at the fake in shock.

"Aw, what's wrong? Don't like one of your crewmates getting fucked like the bitch he is-?" he was cut off as the arm around his throat tightened. He choked, and glared at the now furious Nico Robin.

"Fucking bitch!"

"SHUT UP!" Zoro yelled, his eyes demonic-like.

Sanji smirked, "Aw, what wrong? Mad you didn't get to fuck him first?" he chuckled.

"He likes you, ya know. He dreams about you every night, gets all hot and bothered. Only to wake up to cold hard truth. You would never like him."

Zoro froze, his eyes wide in shock, was that true?

"But that doesn't matter now, he's mine. And I won't let you hurt him anymore, only I can have that privilege." Luffy's fist smashed into Sanji's face, making the fake jerk it's head to the side and spit out blood.

"W-Wonderful, keep it up. This body is strong, I can take a few hits. But what will your little friend feel if he wakes up?" Luffy glared at the impostor viciously.

"You bastard! Give Sanji back! He doesn't belong to you!"

Sanji chuckled, his black eyes wild and crazy. He flexed his fingers a little, before his head rolled back and the black in his eyes slowly went away, like tiny veins crawling away from the pupil, and his head slumped forward, his body going limp in Robin's arms.

Everyone was quiet, waiting for the impostor to make it's move, then jumped back a little from the groan he let out.

"What the hell?" Sanji's head slowly lifted up, and the crew was shocked to see his normal blue eyes staring back at them.

"What's going on, Robin-san why are your arms wrapped around me? Not saying that I don't mind but- why are you all looking at me like that?" the crew was not fooled.

"Cut the crap, we know it's you."

Sanji glared at the swordsman, "What the hell are you talking about you shit swordsman?"

Zoro glared right back, Sanji was taken aback by the intensity of the glare. Like he really hated him, that stung a little. Sanji turned away from the swordsman, and looked at the rest of the crew, now scared a little. What the fuck was going on?

"What the hell are you guys doing?! Let me go!" He struggled against Robin's arms, he was getting even more scared now.

"Let me go! LET ME GO!" his voice going a little higher.

"STOP IT! LET ME GO! DON'T TOUCH ME! STOP!" his eyes were closed now, thrashing wildly, Robin winced from the strain her arms were going through to keep him locked in place.

"Please! I won't do it again! Please, just let me go..." he went limp again, tears running down his pale face, Nami's hand was against her mouth, trying to hold in her sobs.

"Please! Let me- OH SHUT UP ALREADY!" Everyone tensed at the familiar demonic voice.

"Jesus, he just won't shut up!" Sanji looked back up, his eyes once again black. "That's all he says in this stupid mind of his. 'Stop it!' 'Don't hurt me!' 'Please!' It's getting kind of annoying. Maybe I'll just teach him another lesson later."

"What the hell are you?!" Usopp yelled, finally showing himself.

Sanji smirked, "What the hell do you think I am?"

"Demon," Chopper whispered. Everyone's eyes snapped to the frozen reindeer.

"What are talking about Chopper?" Brook asked, he had been silent since the impostor was revealed.

"I-I've read about them, in some of the old books Doctor Kureha had, it talked about certain kinds, there's spirit demons, demons that turn into animals, and the most highly known of all..." Chopper gulped.

"What is it?"

Sanji grinned, "Dream Walker."


Sanji sprawled on the floor, too numb to move. If he even tried, pain would be everywhere. He couldn't take this anymore, he just wanted to die.


"Strap him down to the bed." Chopper ordered, Luffy and Zoro lifted the jerking male in their arms.

"PUT ME DOWN! I SWEAR I WILL RIP OUT ALL YOUR INTESTINES!" he bellowed, his voice overlapping again.

"Tie the knots tightly, don't let him escape." they pulled hard on the knots. The demon struggled even more.

"What are you going to do?" Zoro asked cautiously, staring at the demon possessing his friend's body.

Friend? Is that he is to me? Zoro thought to himself.

"Not me, one of you guys."

"What?" they all echoed each other.

Chopped massaged his face, "Look, the only way to drive out a dream walker demon is to enter the possessed victim's mind. The only way to do this is by each taking Silene Undulata. It a tree root that causes vivid lucid dreams, it also connects the minds of the two who take the same root. The only this the person has to do to get rid of the demon is say these words."

"Remissionis."

"It's Latin for 'Release'." Chopper explained from the confused looks the crew was giving him. Chopper sighed.

"Look, I don't know if this is true or not. But it's the only thing we've got."

Luffy nodded, everyone else glanced at the now very pissed off demon.

"Ecce ego interficiam omnes vos." the demon spit at them.

"W-Who's gonna go?" Usopp asked fearfully, glancing at the demon.

"I'll go." everyone looked at Zoro.

"Zoro?"

"I'll go." he repeated, staring at the demon.

"Okay." Luffy said, and nodded at Chopper.

Chopper began going through all of his medicine herbs. Not telling them why he would even carry such a thing on board, 'I'll explain once this is over', and quickly began mixing things together. And before long he had two small cups of a white liquid that was bubbling. Zoro eyed it warily, Chopper forced the cup into his hands before turning to the demon.

"Nihil solliciti sitis , repugnantem aliquis elses daemones possunt evigilare faciatis vestram." the demon smirked.

Chopper, with the help of Luffy prying open the demon's mouth, poured the bubbling liquid down Sanji's throat. The demon began to scream and thrash against the restraints wildly.

"Zoro! Hurry up and drink yours!" Chopped hissed, trying to hold down the screaming demon.

Zoro gulped and swallowed the liquid in one gulp.

Pain.

Like liquid fire, burned down Zoro's throat. Lighting his nerves aflame, Zoro screamed loudly, enough to scare the rest of the crew. Then the Two bodies ceased screaming, and moving. Zoro suddenly collapsed, Luffy barely managed to grab the green haired man before he hit the floor.

"Put him in the chair." Chopper said, moving the wooden seat towards the bed. Luffy gently placed this first mate in the seat before backing away. Worry in his eyes.

"Now, all we have to do is wait."


I don't know if what I wrote for the Latin, or the explanations for the tree root are correct of not. And I kind of made up the part of the minds being connected together. So don't hate me if I got something wrong!

"Ecce ego interficiam omnes vos" = "I will kill you all"

"Nihil solliciti sitis , repugnantem aliquis elses daemones possunt evigilare faciatis vestram" = "Be careful for nothing , fighting against the demons are able to awaken your someone elses" (what? O.o)

( ^ meant to be 'Be care fighting someone else's demons, you may awaken your own.')

(not sure if Latin is correct, I used Google Translate ;_; )
