HI! I'm alive! *looks down on herself* Well some how.

Robin: Are you hurt?

Just a bit sore.

Robin: He hit you?!

No, no, nothing like that. I was just so afraid that I was sitting with all my muscles spent the whole time.

Robin: That's good. That his didn't hit you that is.

Zoro: I'm not gone yet.

I promised that you it wasn't any more lovey dovey this chapter. R&R. Enjoy! Sorry, it's a bit short.

"SHE WHAT!" Yelled everyone in the kitchen. They looked at Zoro in a mix of surprise, sorrow and anger.

"She left in the middle of the night! How many times must I say it?" Zoro grumbled. He was in even worse mood now after the lack of sleep last night.

"But why?" whined Luffy

"You was on night watch last night! You must have been sleeping the whole time!" Claimed Nami and pointed a threatening finger at him

"I was awake!" He growled "I just had to let her go." He looked away, not wanting to meet anyone's eyes.

"What do you mean 'had to let her go'?" Nami looked puzzled.

Zoro huffed in annoyance and crossed his arms.

"Swordsman-san." said Robin, gaining his attention. "Can you please tell us what happened last night?" a small smile appeared on her face "or should I tell them?"

Zoro turned his head to her and gave her a death glare. "You watched?"

"More like 'listened'." She smirked.

Zoro huffed again. "Fine I will tell." 'Anything to get her to shut up'

When he was telling them what happened, their faces was showing more and more surprise and shock for every word. He placed the feather in the middle of the table and everyone had their gaze locked on it when he was telling.

Zoro hold his eye on Luffy to see how he reacted. If he knew his captain, he could pretty much guess what was coming. Luffy's face was blank the whole time and his straw hat was covering his eyes more and more. When Zoro was done telling, he leant back and crossed his arms again, waiting on a reaction. Obviously he didn't tell them about the kiss on the forehead, or at least it was what he think it was. He felt his face grew hotter when he thought about it.

"Wow..." said Franky with tears rolling down his cheeks "C is sooo awesome! She is the toughest girl I know! I'm not crying!"

"What is your order Captain?" asked Robin with a knowing smile. Everyone turned to Luffy for an answer. He lifted his head and had determination burning in his eyes.

"We are going to find C and bring her back! OKAY!?" He yelled.

"YES!" yelled everyone back. They standed up and began to run out on deck. Zoro grabbed the feather and placed it in his pocket. He felt a hand on his shoulder and saw that it was Luffy.

"You made the right choice, Zoro. Thank you for telling us."

"I'm not so sure, Luffy. She have suffered much and it annoys me that I couldn't do anything different."

"It's not your fault, everyone would made the same choice."

"Not you."

"True." Luffy grinned

"You are the goofball here so maybe it's not that weird."

"Oi!" Luffy pouted and crossed his arms. Zoro just smiled back. Luffy knew what to say when his nakama was troubled.

"Shall we go and search, Captain?"

Luffy raised his fists and began to walk to the door. "Lets go and bring C back!" Zoro closely following him. 'just wait C, we are going to go and get you.'

I was in a cave on the other side of the island when I woke up. I looked around me and found a dead wolf sliced and diced up beside me. It was blood around the floor and my hands was covered in it.

"Shit"

I got up on my feet and dragged me over to the wolf.

"I'm sorry, wolf." I didn't like killing, and I think every life is important. But I couldn't do anything now. I patted the head and got up on my feet again. I noticed that I had several scratches from the fight with the wolf. The worst wound was on my right arm.

I created some black flames in the palm of my hand and put it on the minor wounds. They disappeared the moment the flames touched them.

I let the wound in my arm be like it was. I ripped of a piece of my red t-shirt and wrapped it around. I winced in pain when it tightened. I breathed in thru my nose and stumbled my way out of the cave.

The sun felt like needles to my eyes. Just outside was my bag and sword. I opened the bag and pulled out some clothes. It was a big black t-shirt with a hand that said 'STOP', my dark green hooded jacket and blue shorts.

I changed on the spot. I just dropped the red t-shirt by the cave and picked up my stuff. I began to walk to find a stream so I could wash away the blood on my face and hands.

While I was walking, my mind was roaming free and guided me to yesterday. I felt my cheeks become warm when I remembered the kiss I gave Zoro on the forehead.

"Curse you, Tala! Why did you do that!" I grabbed my injured arm to keep it steady.

'You was going and I wanted a little fun.' Tala appeared beside me. She walked in the same pace as me.

"That doesn't mean that you can mess with our heads!" I growled back.

'What do you mean?' she said in a dangerous sweet voice. It was almost her trademark. 'I didn't do any harm and he probably took it as a thank you.'

"So you mean you just had to take over my body for just they two seconds so you could have a little FUN!"

'You gained control didn't you?' My growl sounded like a tiger that protected her cubs. She just rolled her eyes.

'Can you please do something about your wound? I don't like it.'

"So don't be so reckless when you fight! Then I won't have a wound."

'You keep it so the wolf have a mark on you? Jeez, you are unchangeable.'

"It also a memorial to the one you kill."

'I don't get your thinking at all' Tala waved her hands into the air in defeat.

"I don't expect you to understand." I sharpened my ears for the sound of running water. I heard some sound in front of us.

"Can't you disappear already? I want some time alone."

Tala shaked her head in defeat and disappeared.

I walked some more and found a stream hidden between some big trees. I washed the dried blood of and sat down with my back against on of the big trees.

I leaned back and looked up on the leaves that made a roof. Small rays of sun twisted their way through the leaves and made the surroundings look calm and beautiful. I noticed that I was still tired after last night. I closed my eyes and drifted into fantasy land.

*Evil aura in the room*

Zoro: S.K.Y! What was that?

*Gulp* It wasn't lovey dovey between you to in person.

Robin: That's true. She didn't brake her promise that way.

Zoro: You and Nami are both witches!

See you! *Trying to escape Zoro's wrath*
