Sorry, I've been busy and I spent my free time watching Fairy Tail yesterday to take a breather. When the battle is over, massive shipping will occur, promise:)

"I WANT TO LIVE!" These words echoed throughout the ravine from the historian we planned on saving. Franky burned up the plans that the government, successfully pissing off the head of CP9. We were all standing on the roof of a Marine building, looking over at CP9, Franky, and a crying Robin. I then turned my gaze towards Luffy, a smile finally on his face... it was time to save our nakama!

The pair of "criminals" started being dragged away and the drawbridge had been stopped halfway when we heard a whistle. One look at Luffy and I nodded, braced myself, and jumped into the deep waters below. I felt cold metal and was soon back on the sea train, rocketing through the air to the other side. Time to test my new weapon out. We started running, only to come face-to-face with this massive guy with a zipper on his mouth.

I had so much adrenaline that I had trouble staying focused. "chapapa...Fukuro...key...gate of justice..." I finally snapped back to reality when I heard Luffy yell as he ran off and Zoro came into my view.
"Luna, calm down. You look like your about to murder someone." I was so wound up that I didn't even realize that my knife was out along with my ears and tail. "We need to battle the CP9 members and get a key from them. One of them might be able to unlock Robin's handcuffs".

I nodded and we were off. We were running down a hall when I smelled something familiar... We stopped in front of a door and walked inside, finding Kaku and a lady that I didn't recognize. It wasn't long until Zoro was fighting against Kaku and I was fighting against the woman, whose name was Yuki. The battle went on for a bit, all four of us a bit exhausted. Then the pair stood together and told us to behold their power.

They started to grow and we soon fell into the floor below. When the dust cleared, I found myself next to Sogeking *cough USOPP* and Zoro facing a jacked up looking giraffe, an equally strange Zebra and... a wolf man. The scent from earlier, the strange feeling I've been having, the fact that Robin wouldn't make eye-contact with me at all, it was because the same man that made me spend the past fourteen years alone until I met the straw hats was standing right in front of me.

I grabbed Zoro's shirt, earning a curious expression until he followed my gaze. I felt him tense as he looked back at me. He nodded, understanding the situation and getting in a protective stance. I turned to look back at the man I had feared for so long, only to find him staring back at me, hatred burning in his eyes.
"YOU?! Your that runt that ate a part of my devil fruit aren't you? Haha! Did you like the present I left at your house. Your family was shocked when I told them about the monster you had become and that you were now a wanted criminal. If they had told me where you were, then they probably would still be alive, although they probably would have turned away from you, you useless, good for nothing brat!"

"Jabra, you know this girl?" Kaku asked. I looked back at Zoro and saw an evil aura around him, his eyes dead-set on the wolf-man Jabra. I on his shirt and he looked at me, the anger receding slightly as I shook my head. "Thank you" I whispered, then I rushed at him, full out wolf. I heard the battle behind me as we wrestled. Crap he was strong. I let my guard down for a second as I looked over to make sure Zoro was ok and got hit, sending me flying.

I landed on my feet, but my side had a slight stinging sensation. The fight temporarily stopped When Kaku yelled, "BEHOLD THE POWER OF THE GIRAFFE!" and turned into a rectangular giraffe. I couldn't help but laugh at Zoro's face, making me laugh harder when he said, "You look like crap!" I could tell he was a bit mad at himself for letting his lounge slip. The three CP9 members got there wits and attacked us. The fight continued when I heard a shout and looked over at Sogeking and Zoro, who were now handcuffed together.

"WHAT DID YOU DO?!" I yelled as I ran over.
"Luna don't!" Zoro yelled, but I had already put my hand on the handcuffs, receiving a mass amount of pain. Stupid government and there sea prism stone! I quickly let go, my hand now red and Zoro looked really pissed off.
"Ok, you two try not to get killed by tweedle-dee and tweedle-dum over there," I said pointing at Kaku and Jabra, " and I'll take care of miss 'can't tell if I'm white with black stripes or black with white stripes because I'm a complete idiot'. KAY?!"

Usopp and Zoro started running like idiots while I charged the zebra. I slashed my whip as it connected with her sword. Both Kaku and Yuki had been boasting about there swordsman-ship before we started the battle. At one point Chopper showed up and the adorable idiot couldn't understand us so he ended up running with Zoro and Usopp as they explained. When I had a chance, it was actually kinda funny to watch. He left to go find key 2 so that they could unlock the handcuffs, a determined look on his face.

We continued our battle, no longer with weapons, just animal-to-animal. I went to attack and she moved out of the way with super-human speed, kicking me from behind as I turned into my half-point. She kept going around in circles kicking me, which hurt a lot because A. she had a lot of strength, and B. hoofs frigging hurt! She kept laughing and saying how ridiculous it was for us to try to get "the criminal back" because it wasn't "justified". I closed my eyes and focused. I could hear everything: the wind, my breathing, Zoro and Usopp's racing hearts... there you are.

"You talk about justice, yet what good does it do you when you yourself have evil intentions?" I growled as I caught her leg, only inches from kicking my face. She had a bewildered look as I continued, getting louder as I went. "What is just about any of this?! Whenever something doesn't go your way, you just label it as a criminal act and outcast them. Is it really so wrong to be curious as a little girl and eat strange fruits?! Is it really so wrong to outcast someone for following her dream as a historian?! IS IT SO WRONG TO WANT TO PROTECT YOUR LOVED ONES?!" I yanked up Yuki's leg, making her crash to the ground as I jumped up and continued to yell as I started to beat her senseless, "WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?!"

I leaped up into the air, full wolf again, and crashed down on her, dealing the final blow. I looked over as Zoro finished beating Kaku, now separated from Usopp, who looked extremely terrified standing up against the wolf-man. I was about to step in when Sanji rushed in with Nami and Franky, followed by a massive Chopper. Franky ended up hitting him, sending him into the ocean only to dive after the now extremely large, not-so-cut-anymore reindeer.

Zoro walked over to me as Jabra hit Usopp and Nami reassured me that it was part of the plan to get Chopper back to normal. Sanji looked at the wolf man, then at me, the gears clicking together in his head. I looked up at Zoro and saw him nod at Sanji, who in turn grinned and took the battle outside into the halls while Nami and Usopp ran off to get the keys to Franky (who had run ahead after getting Chopper) and Robin.

"Wait Sanji, don't-" Zoro put his hand over my mouth and told me to calm down and rest.
"You got injured..."
"So did you." I retorted. He looked at me right in the eye before pulling me into a hug.
"That man was the one that killed your parents, wasn't it? You don't have to worry, although he's a complete idiot, that stupid cook knows how to fight. We won't let him hurt you anymore."

I didn't cry, I forced it down, but I did hug him with the strength that I had left. I held onto him as I heard the battle on the other side of the wall. I heard every punch, kick, bite, and snide comment made. It was terrible to listen to, but I didn't tell Zoro, but I don't think I needed to since he hugged me tighter when I accidentally flinched when I heard Sanji get hit really badly. Then, silence. Zoro let go of me and I rushed out of the room to see Sanji standing over the extremely beat up wolf. I collapsed on the floor, a single tear escaping me as the reality of it all hit me.

Sanji walked up the steps lighting his cigarette as Zoro put his hand on my shoulder. "Thank you" was all I could manage to say. I knew that I was lucky to have found nakama (and love), but I didn't expect for them to free me from the ghost that had haunted me for so long. I felt as if my family had finally been avenged. Then I remembered that my new family still had a member that needed to be saved as well. I jumped up, Zoro and Sanji not far behind carrying an injured Usopp that jumped off the building after getting the keys to Franky, who was now with Robin. I almost forgot to mention that the whole island is now under the Buster call. Yipee. Don't worry Robin, we're coming.
