I'm sorry for making you wait that long. Either school or the heat is about to kill me one of these days. Exams are here (i'm almost finished for this term .. finally) and studying in this heat is pure torture.

Because it has been a long time i decided to add the last part of the last chapter, so it's easier for you to get into the story again :)

And sorry that it's short. But i really don't have the time to make it longer now :( You have to wait for at least 2 weeks until i'm able to update again, but please be patient with me :) Thank you for all your support until now and please continue reading my story *waving flags for you*

When Sanji opened the door to the galley he felt that nothing could spoil his good mood.

Oh he couldn't have been anymore wrong.

His smile was wiped off his face when he saw his Nakama.

Everything was dead silent and their faces looked as if someone had died recently. And on the table in the middle of the galley he could see three swords.

Zoro's swords.

(~+*+~)

Sanji stared at the swords on the table.

Zoro would have never left them there voluntarily even if he was somewhere on the ship, and the mood of his Nakama told him that something was completely wrong.

"What the hell happened here?"

He took a step forward and unconsciously let go of Sara's hand.

Upon losing the contact Sara twitched and felt a sting inside her chest and she felt as if she was about to lose something very precious to her, even though she told herself that it was stupid to think like that.

She just had had a beautiful afternoon with a man she really liked. Why would she lose it? There's nothing to worry about! … Right?

Nami looked at Sanji and let out a big sigh. It seemed as if it was her task to tell him everything.

"Well, Usopp went into town today to search for some brushes and on the market he saw that someone was selling three swords and upon further looking he noticed that they were Zoro's swords.

He asked the merchant where he got those swords. But he wouldn't answer, so he rushed to the ship and went to get Luffy. After Luffy threatened the merchant he told us that he found them somewhere near the forest and that a green haired girl lay next to them. "

She halted in her speech and looked at Sara.

"I think she meant you, Sara. I know that you can't remember anything, but if you do, please tell us, because it could help us to find Zoro. As it is now, we don't know what happened to him, but it's possible that your amnesia has a connection to Zoro's disappearance. "

Sanji had listened to her with a straight face and lit up a cigarette. But inside his mind his thoughts were in chaos. He would never admit it out loud, but Zoro was a strong and competent man. So why should he disappear and leave his swords behind? Maybe a strong opponent turned up and kidnapped him? But why should someone in his right mind kidnap Zoro? Absolutely impossible.

He exhaled some of his smoke and turned around to face Nami and the rest of his crew.

"Now, what should we do?"

She looked at him with the serious expression still plastered on her face.

"We'll split up and search for Zoro on this island. Maybe we'll find some clues somewhere."

She lifted up a little bag and brought out a map of the island. She separated them into teams to search on the island. Luffy, Nami and Chopper for the west part of the island. Robin and Usopp for the north part, Franky and Brook for the east part and Sara and Sanji the south part of the island, near the port town. That way Sara wouldn't be strained too much in her condition and someone would be near the ship in case Zoro comes back.

Nami put the map back into her bag and stood up from the table.

"Now that that's settled we should go back into town and sleep. That way we can leave the town early. Sara, Sanji, could the both of you please stay on the ship for the night? Someone should stay here."

The both of them nodded and the rest of the crew made their way to the inn with a grim expression on their face.

See you all :)
