Ever on and on I continue circling

With nothing but my hate in a carousel of agony

Till slowly I forget and my heart starts vanishing

And suddenly I see that I can't break free—

I'm

Slipping through the cracks of a dark eternity

With nothing but my pain and the paralyzing agony

To tell me who I am, who I was

Uncertainty enveloping my mind

Till I can't break free

Touhou-Bad apple

Let's just say that Eve couldn't handle her drink.

At all.

After two glasses she was out for the count. Lying against a fully grown Snow,she seemed to sleep peacefully as the others continued to drink.

"You don't need to remember"

Eve turned around looking around in the darkness of her mind.

"I need to! I need to know who I am!" the voice laughed, its laughter echoing around her.

"I won't allow it! YOU WILL NOT REMEMBER!"

"W-who are you?"

Shadows seemed to form a shape in front of her, and before her was a shadow like creature. She couldn't tell many details of the figure, but the shadow grinned, and black sludge dripped from its small golden eyes.

"I'M YOU"

With a gasp Eve shot up, frantically looking around before she sighed in relief as she took in her surroundings. The ship was covered in the bodies of her new nakama. Looking up at the crow's nest she noticed that Zoro was snoozing and she realized that she was the only one awake. So moving off Snow who she had used as a cushion, she decided to be useful. Closing her eyes she raised her hand and after murmuring the words needed to use her magic, empty bottles of sake and empty plates were taken into the kitchen. Satisfied with her work she was about to head into the girls room…

"SUGOI!" Startled she turned around to see that Luffy had awoken and was staring at her in wonder.

"ah… i-im s-sorry did I w-wake you up C-captain?" Luffy seemed to ignore her and instead rushed towards her.

"WHAT ELSE CAN YOU DO?! He continued to yell his he would wake the others,she put her gloved hand over his mouth.

"C-captain you'll w-wake the others "She said softly. However he continued to yell behind her hand, so she decided to tell him.

"S-spells I can use s-spells but I have to u-se b-books f-for more d-difficult ones. I can u-use my magic to a-attack with m-my sword"

The green haired man while still asleep twitched slightly.

"YOU CAN USE A SWORD?!"Luffy couldn't contain his excitement as he imagined the red head wielding a sword releasing a laser beam. His eyes twinkled in anticipation.

Zoro twitched a second time and slowly woke up and looked down to see their new nakama and his captain. Strangely the deck was tidy which never usually happened when they had a party and Nami would demand they clean their mess up.

Luffy, noticed his first mate was awake

"ZORO, EVE CAN USE A SWORD THAT SHOOTS MAGIC!" this intrigued the swordsman who climbed down from the crow's nest.

"Fight me"

Eve frantically shook her head

"Ah, I er… I'm not v-very s-strong" She stammered backing away slightly from the swordsman

"Doesn't matter" He couldn't help but smirk as she got more and more flustered. It was somehow cute entertaining.

"But i-"Thankfully Eve was saved as a flying object hit Zoro in the head.

Zoro snarled

"OI ERO COOK WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!" Sanji lit his cigarette

"Don't pick on Eve-Tan, you shitty marimo!"

And so a fight began between the pair giving Eve the opportunity to flee to the safety of the girl's dorm…

A week went by as Eve settled in. Much to Zoro's annoyance he didn't get chance to ask Eve for that fight he wanted from her. She either avoided him or Sanji came out of nowhere to kick him. Let's just say Zoro was very annoyed…

Eve meanwhile, was not paying attention to what was going on in the ship and was meditating in her new room next to the library. Snow was in her small form and was asleep, enjoying the comforts of Eve's pillow. So deciding to do some training,Eve took deep breaths and closed her eyes. Focusing on her meditation, she seemed to miss all that was going on the ship's deck. She didn't even hear Zoro enter her room, to alert her that the ship had been caught in a storm and they had ended up in the Florian triangle as well as the fact a skeleton was now on their ship. When he opened the door he felt his jaw drop. Eve was actually levitating! Surrounded by orbs of light Zoro could help but feel that eve was like a goddess as her red hair almost had a will of its own. Snow yawned softly and stretched as she woke up from her long nap, only to notice the green haired man watching Eve with a look of awe. She smirked finding the scene hilarious. Zoro expression was one of shock. Not an expression that many saw from the stoic snapping out of his trance he was about to speak when one by one, the orbs created a small explosions, like mini fireworks. Once the last orb had disappeared Eve opened her eyes, her golden orbs peering at the swordsman, confused…

"Zoro? Why are you" She paused and her eyes went wide for a moment, almost blank. Snow shot up and quickly went to Eves side, whining softly.

"Oi Eve what's wrong?" When she didn't respond, Zoro felt himself panic. What the heck was he supposed to do?

However as quickly as her trance came it soon vanished and light returned to Eves eyes. She blinked and quickly shot up and was about to run out the room when Zoro grabbed her arm. Quickly he let go due to the sparks that travelled up his arm, which he did his best to ignore.

"What's wrong? Eve seemed torn in telling him and instead backed up slightly.

"I er…"She couldn't look him in the eye which only annoyed the he stalked towards her, and eve backed up, only to hit the his arm by her head in towered over her.

She was trapped.

"Why won't you look at me" her face went red and she looked to the ground.

"B-because… y-you m-make m-me nervous" She stammered, causing Zoro to smirk and lean closer towards her. He didn't know why he was acting like this towards her but somehow he found himself enjoying himself immensely. Her reactions were just so innocent, and he couldn't help but make her flustered. After all red was a good colour on her.

"And why is that Eve?" He leaned in closer and when Eve finally looked at him in the eye, she found that she couldn't look away. Lost in his dark eyes, she didn't seem to notice that they were leaning towards each other…

BANG!

The door slammed open and Sanji was about to yell at zoro for obviously pestering Eve for far too long when he felt his eyes widen at the compromising position Zoro and Eve were in. Eve gasped her face becoming its usual shade of red. Zoro quickly pulled away and shoved past Sanji.

"Don't say a damn word"He muttered lowly, his ears slightly tinged red as he left eves room.

Sanji was speechless, and snow, who had witnessed the whole thing was still sniggering…

"Oh you're such a beautiful lady, would you mind letting me see your p-"

"URUSAI"

Eve was stunned to see a talking skeleton with a giant afro sitting at the table next to her captain. She blinked twice and looked at Nami…

"Is t-this w-what the o-outside w-worlds like?"

"NO!" Her nakama sweat dropped at Eves wonder at the skeleton.

"My name is Brooke ojou-chan! What would be your name?"

"Ah that's Eve! She's a witch "Brook gasped, his food forgotten, gaped at the redhead.

"THAT'S AMAZING! MY EYES HAVE NEVER SEEN SUCH A BEING, BUT OF COURSE I DON'T HAVE ANY EYES! SKULL JOKE!"

Eve smiled and giggled slightly with snow sniggering on her shoulder.

"AH! I know it's slightly late but what are your names? "After reluctance from most of the crew, they introduced themselves to the skeleton. Just as food was being served, Zoro stood up and stood next to Franky. And then looked at eve

"Sit down "He simply stated, his ears slightly pink but none the less looking as he usual did. Eve nodded, and this time looked him in the eye. Maybe he had been annoyed at her, and what had happened in her room was simply him stating that dislike.

OH how mistaken she was… if only she knew the turmoil the swordsman was facing…

"Thank you" She murmured softly, before sitting was then that Brook began to tell his tale.
