Hey, everyone sorry for taking so long to update. But, I've been trying to figure out what to do for the Naruto story. I got a lot of great ideas but in the end I'm going with Soul Eater. Cause, I can make the power I plan in using pass for something that would belong in Naruto's world. I did recieve a lot of great ideas and I wish I knew more about the shows that were suggested but I don't and I wanted to get started on this real soon.

On another note I will proabably have the first chapter of it up this weekend and that I will be working on it until I get the first five chapters up. So, this stroy will not be updated for a while.

But, let's get on with the story.


Chapter 15: Sunday Meeting


The next few minutes consisted of Nami freaking out about being hunted by a Shibukia, then getting mad at me like it was all my fault!

Oh yeah it kind of is isn't it. But, that's beside the point.

After Nami finished her ranting and slight beating she delivered to my skull. Vivi became depressed and afraid for not herself but us and all the people of her home.

"You have –cough- MA MA MAMAAAA! You have nothing to fear princess." I heard Igaram say.

We all turned to face where his voice came from and to be honest. I didn't know if I should laugh or be sick. So I went with being so suprised that I couldn't do anything else.

Igaram was wearing the same exact thing as Vivi, he even had his hair done just like hers.

Igaram went over to Vivi and began talking to her about something. Of course, the only thing that we all heard out of the conversation was Crocodile sending a thousand agents after her.

Which, caused Nami to freak out yet agian.

"Which, brings me to my plan." Igaram said, which caused Nami to stop freaking out for a bit. "Disguised as you, I'll take these dummies onboard with me and sail striaght towards Alabasta."

Luffy had a face that clearly showed he had no idea what Igaram was talking about.

So, Zoro stepped in. "A decoy." he told Luffy.

Which, Luffy made an 'Oh' expression and nodded his head to.

Nami though decided to actually voice an opinion. "Hold on! Who said we're taking her?" she asked or basically shouted.

"Didn't we already have this discussion?" I asked her.

The answer I got was a whack to the head. So, I decided to go above her head.

"Hey, Luffy! We are taking Vivi back to her home aren't we?" I asked him.

"Wait! That's what we're argueing about?" he asked. Which, I nodded my head to. "Of, course!"

"You heard the captian." I told Nami.

She tried to make some arguement, but thanks to Luffy's stubborness he was already set to go fight Crocodile.


With that all out of the way we all made our way to the docks.

Igaram then made sure his voiced came sort of close to sounding like a girls.

"Now, I Vivi, well be heading home." he said in his fake Vivi voice, that couldn't fool anyone.

"That's a good imitation!" Luffy cheered.

Well, all but Luffy.

Igaram then asked Vivi for the Eternal Pose, which she handed to him. He then explained to us exactly what it did.

When, he was finished telling us about the Eternal Pose he told us all good bye and thanked us.

"Promise, me that you all will get Princess Vivi home safely." Igaram said to us.

"I give you a gaurantee that she will reach Alabasta safely." I told him.

I could tell by the way he was looking at me that he knew good and well that I was telling him the truth.

"I can't begin to thank you all for what you are doing for me. Please be careful on your route." Igaram said to us as he made his way onto his ship.

Igarm was off and good ways out on the ocean. We could see him standing with all his little dummies.

"There he goes. He was such a funny old man." Luffy said.

"What's more, he's a reliable old man." Vivi said fondly and watched him on the horizion.

As we watched Igaram sail away I was trying to figure out why I had this nagging feeling that I was forgetting something.

*BOOOOM!*

Unfortanetly, the loud explosion was the last thing I needed to hear as it finally jogged my memory.

A huge, spiraling explosion hit the ship. It was engulfed in flames and smoke. The shock was so big it blew into our faces.

Everyone was shocked beyond belief.

Nami was the first to recover. "They're already after us? That's impossible!" Nami shouted in terror.

Luffy turned around and yelled just before he charged into the city.

"Nami! The log!" Zoro asked.

She checked her wrist. "Um…It's fine! Were set!"

Zoro then had Nami follow him as they ran into the city after Luffy.

"Cortez! Get the Princess to the ship!" I heard Zoro holler at me as he was running.

I heard Zoro, but I was still in shock as to what happened. Vivi was fairing any better than me.

She was crouched down on the ground crying her eyes out.

She was so out of it that I couldn't even get her to stand back up so, I just picked her up and began running back to the Merry.


The trip back didn't take long at all considering I took to the roofs to make the trip faster.

Of course, at some point Vivi snapped out of her funk and started flailing around and screaming at me to go back to Igaram.

Once I finally made it to the Merry and set Vivi down she tried jumping off the ship. So, I had to grab a hold of her, but she started fighting me to make me let her go.

I spun her around so she was facing me. "Vivi, Listen!" I shouted at her, which made her stop. "Igaram did what he did so you could go and save your people and your home. If you go back then you will be spitting on his sacrifice. He knew that this might happen, but he did it anyway. He believes you can save Alabasta. Don't let his sacrafice be for nothing."

She was silent for what seemed like and enternity, but once everything I said registered with her she broke down crying agian.

I began comforting her. "Also, you won't be doing this all alone. You have us." I told her.

She sniffed up her tears and nodded at me. "Thanks for that." She said with a shaky voice.

The next thing I know I giant ass duck jumped up on the boat with a loud 'Quack'.

The thing nearly gave me a heart-attack, but Vivi went over and huged the thing.

"Carue! I'm so glad you made it!" she exclaimed.

"Damn. Featherbrain beat me."

I looked over the deck and saw Zoro just arriving.

"We might be in some trouble, Zoro, if you can't even out run a duck." I called out to him.

The reply I got was him telling me to shut up.

Luffy and Nami arrived just a bit after Zoro showed up. Along with and unconscious Sanji and Usopp.

Once they were all here we got to work readying the Merry to set sail and thanks to Vivi's advice we were able to get back into the ocean faster.

The next thing that happened was Usopp and Sanji woke up complaining about wanting to stay in Whiskey Peak and thankfuly Nami took care of explaining things to them.

*BAM!*

The only way Nami knew how to explain most things.

As we were sailing the fog started lifting to show us that the sun was rising.

"Finally it's getting light out." Nami said gratefully.

"I'm just glad we got away from the people who were chasing us." A female voice said from behind us.

"I couldn't agree more." I added.

Of course, that's when we all realized that the voice shouldn't be there.

We all turned around to see know other than Miss Sunday sitting on the railing of the ship.

And let me tell you that there is only one way to describe how she looks.

DAAAAAAAMN!

She had tanned skin, long black hair, and two gorgeous blue eyes. She had a seductive and sexy smile on. Her breast were much larger than anyother girls that I've seen so far. Hey, that's not me being a perv either if you saw what she was wearing you'd notice that to. A slim figure 8 waist, and nice hips to boot. She was wearing a tiny purple vest thing that only covered her boobs (held together by a string), a purle short shirt. And cowboy boots, plus a purple cowboy hat.

Now, you know good and well why I would notice that her breasts were a lot bigger.

I was stunned to say the least. Plus, add to the fact that she glanced in my direction and I think the smile she was wearing on her face increased a bit, well I wouldn't be moving for a bit. Add to the fact that I was the closest to her really made it more effective.

"Who are you? And what are you doing on my ship?" Luffy asked in anger.

"I ran into your friend Mr. 8 a while back…he didn't look so good." She said, still having that grin on her face.

It was at that comment that I remebered something very, very important. Igaram isn't dead! He shows up after Crocodile's defeated.

Once, I remembered that I let out a small chuckles which unfrotanetly everone seemed to notice.

"What's so amusing Mr. Yotta?" Miss Sunday asked me.

I then realized that everyone was looking at me so, I did the only thing that came to mind.

I bullshitted my way through this.

"Well, I can tell that your trying to trick us some how." I told her.

At that remark she raised an eyebrow and the rest of the crew members were looking at me curiosuly. So, I kept going.

"You see why would you come to our ship to let us know that? Why put a target on your back when we didn't have any idea as to who blow up Igaram's ship? Not only that, but you coming over to tell us just seems to arrogant and you don't strike me as the arrogant type. So, that means one of two things. Either you didn't blow up Igarams' ship and your trying to throw us off there scent or you have some other motive that I haven't figured out yet." I explained.

Everyone else was speechlees, but Miss Sunday had a neutral face for a while until a small smirk appeared on her face.

"It seems that your not just a handsome face and brute strength, Mr. Yotta." She said to me.

At the handsome remark my face went bit red.

Unfortanetly, Vivi didn't seem to listen to anything I said. "You killed him!" she shouted at Miss Sunday.

Of course, it seems that nobody else cared about my logic at that point as they all readied their weapons.

Sunday frowned and said, "I would really appreciate it if you would…"

Everyone was disarmed in a second. Sanji and Usopp were tossed off their feet, Zoro and Nami's weapons were knocked out of their hands.

"I have no reason to fight you." She said calmly, and made Luffy's hat fly towards her and...my beret! How did she even get that off my head without me noticing.

"Give me back my hat!" Luffy and I shouted.

Of course, Sanji was back on his feet in a matter of seconds.

"Oh Wow! Now That I Get A Good Look At You, You're Beautiful!" Sanji exclaimed.

Most of us had a large sweatdrop on the back of our heads. So, I decided to save us a lot of trouble.

Since he was closer to me I gave him a chakra punch to the head and I think he was still a bit tipsy cause he was out. Which is good cause I believe he can kick my ass.

"A little jealous, Mr. Yotta?" Miss Sunday asked with a smirk.

"Me? Jealous of him?" I asked while motioning towards Sanji. "Please, I could put a dress on the mast and he would flirt with it."

Vivi was holding that Eternal Pose of that one place or another. Usopp was cowering behind the mast and Luffy was still pissed about his hat.

"She doesn't decide where this ship goes." Luffy said firmly as he crushed it in his hand.

Luffy then recieved a nice hit to the back of his head for that and a lot off shouting.

"I'm sorry to hear that." She said. "If you survive, I hope we'll meet again." She said looking at me before she left.

Which casued me to blush once agian.

She then threw Luffy his hat back and gave me mine back.

She then leaped off the ship and landed on…a huge turtle. And I mean HUGE!

Luffy and Usopp watched the turlte swim away. I let out a breath that I realized that I was holding.

"I've got to thank you, Cortez." Zoro said as walked up to me.

Why's that?" I asked.

"Cause, not only did you knock out the perverted cook, but I can hold the fact that you can actualy get a girl to flirt with you over him for a looong time." He told me.

"I didn't even think of that." I replied.

And with that we made our way to our next stop.


I hope you all enjoyed the latest chapter and don't forget to review! Plus, be looking towards the Naruto story coming out this weekend.
