Me- Hello everyone, and here comes the next chapter for Hime-sama no Kaizoku, this chapter we finally get to meet Sanji, so you guys should enjoy this chapter a bit, but be prepared because Leif's second arch is a bit dark at least in my opinion. I'm just warning you guys but that doesn't come till later on so for now enjoy Sanji and this arch will end rather quickly compared to the other one, and then Nami's arch which will be a bit long and yet we will get somewhere with it. In this chapter a new character is appearing so be prepared.

Hime-sama no Kaizoku

Chapter 12: Introducing Sanji, the love struck cook!

It hadn't been long since the crew had descended from Syrup Island, and since they left Leif had been training with Zoro in the crow's nest of the ship. Leif again had been kicked down by Zoro as she got right back up to try again.

"You're really strong." Leif admitted as Zoro gave a cocky smirk.

"Years of training, and I can get you there if you're willing to work for it." Zoro laughed as Leif glared at the swordsman.

"I'm not some weak little girl, but I do need some extra training to become even stronger. You better watch it you moronic swordsman, or one of these days I'll defeat you!" Leif mocked as Zoro swung the wooden sword toward Leif again as she dodged it by jumping up before landing a little bit in front of the point. Zoro, however was not amused as he began to intensify the training, but it stopped when they heard something from below.

"What was that?" Zoro questioned as Leif shrugged her shoulders.

"We better take a look." Leif suggested as the two ran out to see Nami fighting with some guy that Leif didn't know.

"Leif!" Usopp cried as he ran behind the brunette. He wasn't taking any chances with this guy; for all he knew he was out too kill them.

"Who are yo…aniki?" The man cried out as he ran over to Zoro whom looked wide eyed at the youth.

"Johnny?" Zoro questioned at the man nodded.

"It's been a while aniki." Johnny spoke as Zoro looked around the ship.

"So how's Yosaku?" Zoro questioned as the man glared at the long nose that was still hiding behind the brunette beside Zoro.

"Well, Yosaku fell ill, so we decided to rest on that island over there," Johnny explained as he pointed to the desecrated island. "However, that guy attacked us."

"That's a laugh, Usopp wouldn't hurt a fly." Leif laughed as Johnny stared at the girl in disbelief. He wasn't joking around with this and yet she was laughing as if it were so.

"Just calm down, it's only scurvy." The navigator spoke while relaxing on her lawn chair while briefly flipping through a magazine.

"Huh?" Johnny questioned as the navigator turned to him.

"Your friend Yosaku has scurvy, so all you need is some vitamin c, and he'll be just fine." Nami announced as Johnny thanked the orange haired beauty.

After they had gotten Yosaku back to a better state by feeding him some limes, Johnny ended up hugging the navigator whom punched him for touching her. Leif merely laughed as she watched the scene unfold, but then Nami silenced her.

"Listen we are gonna need a cook to handle our health too, so we don't end up with the same illness." Nami spoke as Leif pouted.

"I can cook." Leif argued while Zoro cringed at the thought of tasting the horrid thing that was Leif's cooking.

"No." Zoro simply stated as Leif glared at the swordsman while stepping on his foot.

"What the hell was that for you damned, princess?" snapped an angry Zoro as Leif got in his face.

"You have something to say about it ya directionally challenged swordsman?" questioned a temperamental Leif as Usopp and Nami sighed at the never ending fight between the brunette and moss headed swordsman.

"Knock it off you two." Usopp snapped as Leif turned back to him with a look that clearly said 'Are we disturbing you or something?'

"I know where you can probably get a cook; they have plenty at the Baratie." Johnny announced.

"Well, it beats the princesses cooking any day." Zoro laughed as Leif elbowed him in the stomach in anger.

"Nah, Zoro hates Leif's cooking, but it's not that bad." Luffy said as Leif gave a smile to her captain.

"At least someone appreciates my cooking." Leif said.

"Anyway, the Baratie shouldn't be too far away, so we will help ya out." Johnny announced; too bad he didn't know what he was getting himself into.

Before the crew knew it, they had all been seated at the Baratie's lovely tables, all except for a certain missing captain. Leif began to wonder where he had gone to until someone came over to the table with a cresent shaped scar underneath his eye in one of the restaurants uniforms.

"Luffy?" Leif questioned him as he looked about ready to kill one of them.

"You guys are so cruel, you're eating without me." Luffy shouted as Leif began to laugh at the silliness that was her captain, and taking the chance to take a bite of her meal, but before she cook put the fork in her mouth, a rubber hand grabbed her wrist, and leaded the morsel over to his own mouth.

"Luffy!?" Leif questioned startled with a red blush dancing across her cheeks.

"What?" Luffy questioned until he heard a voice from across the room.

"Oi, get back to wor…" The voice suddenly stopped as his eyes met a certain navigator.

"Who is this delightful creature?" Questioned the person as he took Nami's hand and kissed it gently.

"That's Nami, she's my navigator." Luffy exclaimed while leaning on Leif's shoulder which annoyed Leif a bit. Now she knew how Luffy felt when she'd hug him and not let him go.

"Melorine, Melorine, and wait another one, what is your name, you wonderful beauty?" The man questioned as he danced over to the brunette doing the exact same gesture.

"Shut up already, you're giving everyone a head ache, don't bother with the princess." Zoro said as Leif glared at him, but before she could hit him, the man before her got to him first.

"How dare you speak to a lady like that?" The man scolded as Leif looked up toward him in confusion.

"What's your name anyway, and why are you fighting with him, huh?" Leif questioned while flames danced around her.

"Sanji, the greatest cook of all-blue and you my mistress?" Sanji questioned while extending his hand to her.

"Leif, and I believe you kicked a person that I was suppose to kick down; that's my job. I can definitely defend myself." Leif yelled as Luffy smiled at his crewmate.

"I would never think such a thing, next time you can hit him then." Sanji said as Zoro looked between the two in confusion. 'Was she really jealous over not being able to hit me first?' Zoro thought as Leif shook hands with the blond cook,

This was going to be a very long day for the straw hat crew, and Zoro definitely wasn't ready for it.

Me- ok, that was it for chapter 12, but basically, my updates are going to be a bit limited now, but I will do my best to keep updating. I kind of skipped a few parts because again a bit lazy, but next chapter is another fight scene with Zoro and mihawk plus a new character and Leif face off in this epic show down. Aside from that, next chapter will start off with us at the fight since I don't feel like writing everything for this arch, but I'll get over by laziness, and also my unwillingness to go to college. Anyway remember review, because I would like to know what you guys think, and your favorite pairings so far, and even what you think of Leif as a character. All of these things are important to me, and I'd really appreciate it. =)
