I had a nightmare that night. I was kidnapped by an evil man. He tortured me and..did horrible things to me. After he was done, he killed me.

I woke with a scream. Painting I looked around in a panic. Where am I? I felt my face and realized that I was crying. I sat up in the bed I was in. Oh, ya, I am now part of Law's crew. I felt around and figured out that I was no longer on the hard cold examination table. Someone must have carried me here. I shakily stood up. Calm down it was just a dream, but it felt so real. I thought I was going to die. I slowly walked to a dim light. I touched the handle of a door I found and felt along the wall for a light switch. I eventually found it and turned the lights on.

I was in a small room. There was a bed with nightstand by it and a dresser facing the bed. On the other side of the room there was another door. I walked over and opened the door, it was a bathroom. Okay, good a bathroom. I walked in and went to the sink. I splashed cold water on my face and looked up at the mirror.

I was a wreck, my hair was all tangled and my face was covered in dirt. I'm sure I smell bad. I went over the bathtub and started filling it with water. When it was filled I went in. The water was warm and relaxing. "Ah, just what I need after a horrible dream." I sat in the tub for a while.

My relaxing time was interrupted with a knock on the door of my bedroom.

KNOCK! KNOCK! "Hey Kathren! Are you awake?" It was Penguin,"Breakfast is ready!"

"Ugh," I looked down at my wound, I should change the bandages. "Um, I will be out in a second," I yelled out. I got out of the bath and drained the water. I then started to dry myself. After I was dry I started looking around for fresh bandages. I found some behind the mirror, the burn cream was also there. I started applying everything.

"Kathren, come on! I'm hungry!"

"So I noticed," I mumbled. I walked out of the bathroom and went to the dresser," I hope there is fresh clothes in here." I opened up the top drawer and found a shirt and pants, I put them on. I then started coming through my wet hair with my hand.

"It's been more than a second."

I sighed,"All right, I'm coming out." I opened the door that led out into the hallway.

"Wow."

"What?"

"You look hot." I looked at Penguin in surprise. "Aw, how cute your blushing!"

"Wha- Shut up! Take me to breakfast."

"What ever you say, hey do you want to go out?"

"What?"

"You know on a date?"

"No!"

"Okay, I see, not in the mood. I will ask later than."

We walked in the confusing hallways until we came to a bright red door.

"Here we are!" Penguin opened up the door,"Ladies first." He gestured for me to enter.

"Thanks." I walked into a medium sized room with a table and chairs. There was food on the table. Law, Shachi, and Bepo, were already eating.

"Look who's finally awake! Did you sleep well?" Asked Shachi.

"Um, well,"

"Who cares? Let's eat!" Bepo was gorging himself on the food.

"Don't be rude, Bepo, let the pretty lady talk." Penguin and I both sat down.

"It was very comfortable. Thank you for the hospitality."

"Of course! We will do anything for a beauty like you!" exclaimed Penguin.

From the corner of my eye I thought I saw Law glare at him, but when I turned my head to look he was looking down at his food.

"You know, when I walked by your door I thought I heard a scream. Did something happen?" Asked Penguin.

"Huh? What no," I looked down at my food and started eating.

"Hmm, don't want to talk about it… I see. Well then I guess it was nothing." Penguin started eating his food.

Once again out of the corner of my eye I thought I saw Law looking this way, but his time it looked like he was looking at me with curiosity. But of course when I looked up to see, he was looking at his plate. The rest of breakfast went with come chit-chat. It was peaceful. Everyone but Law talked. He sure is quite. We started getting up, I helped clean with Penguin.

After we were done cleaning we walked over to the hatch. "The submarine is on the surface, so if you want some fresh air I recommend you get it now." Penguin started climbing the ladder, he opened the hatch.

Bright light poured in and on to my face. I had to squint my eyes. While I was climbing the ladder I realized that I was walking. Wow my injured feet sure did heal quickly. Penguin helped me up when I got out.

"It feels nice to have the sunlight on my face," I said as I stretched.

"Ya, it sure does." Penguin walked over to the edge with a fishing pole. I looked around and spotted the others were out here. They were all off doing their own things. What should I do? I looked around and spotted Law. For some odd reason I started walking towards him.

"Um, hi." He was laying down with his hat covering his face.

"What do you want?" He lifted his hat up and squinted his eyes at me.

"Oh, nothing. I mean… Do you mind if I sit here?"

He gave me a cold look,"Go ahead, I don't bite."

I laughed,"Are you sure about that? You seem cold enough," I sat down.

He looked at me with surprise in his face, it then changed to a small smirk. "Oh, really? I'm a cold now?"

"Well…. You sure do like to act it."

"hmm, ha, you are very interesting. You definitely brave for speaking like that."

"You won't hurt me. You won't hurt your crew members."

He examined my face. "I guess you are right about one thing."

"Oh?"

"I won't hurt my crew."

I smiled at him, "You know, you can drop the act. You don't have to be so tense either. If I am going to be part of your crew we should be able to stand each other."

"I suppose." He put his hat back over his eyes. I leaned back next to him and stared up at the sky. I think I could get used to this.
