As Nami entered the tent she heard Chopper gasp a little as he rushed forward.
"Zoro!" he nearly shouted. "Zoro are you okay? Please get up!" Zoro groaned and opened his eyes blearily. Nami was about to run from the tent to tell the others the good news when Chopper grabbed her arm. Zoro coughed as he tried to sit up, but Chopper pushed him back. "You may not be dead, but you're still my patient and you need rest," he said forcefully. Zoro rolled his eyes, but stayed where he was. Nami watched open-mouthed, staring at Zoro.
"But . . . but Chopper said you were dying," she whispered harshly. Zoro ignored her and launched into his story.
When he was done Nami looked at his wrists.
"Why would Ace do that?" she questioned. Zoro shook his head
"I've got an idea, but it doesn't explain why he would target me. Ace doesn't want Luffy to be the Pirate King. I would understand him trying to take down Luffy, but why me? If he and Luffy were to fight, I wouldn't be involved anyway. I don't see how getting rid of me would help at all." Nami's brows furrowed as she concentrated.
"I don't know . . .," she mumbled. "I'll try to let the others know without tipping off Ace," she said as she started to leave.
"Wait," came Zoro's voice from behind her. "Try to get Luffy in here alone. Ace's his brother. I want to explain it to him myself." Nami nodded, and left the tent swiftly. Zoro closed his eyes. I hope everyone's going to be all right, he thought as he drifted off to sleep once more.
