I AM FINALLY BACK HOME WITH A COMPUTER NOW!

(Time forward.)

Chopper, Zoro, Cray and Luffy were separated from the group, Chopper was in his large form carrying Luffy over his shoulder.

do you know where were suppose to go?' Cray said really tired

I don't know. Chopper do you still have a scent to pick up on.' Zoro said

Not at the moment.' Chopper said

Suddenly Luffy woke up

Looks like Luffy is up.' Chopper said

What?' Luffy said getting up

Have you recovered yet?' Cray said

I think so.' Luffy said

Your such a pain.' Zoro said

Where are the others?' Luffy said

Don't know?' Cray said

How do you not know where they are?' Luffy said

It's quite simple actually, it's because there somewhere else that I don't know about.' Cray said

Are you trying to be funny?' Luffy said

Yeah. Ain't I a riot?!' Cray said in an angry tone

Let me guess were lost again?" Luffy said

YES AND GUESS WHO'S FAULT THAT IS!?" The three of them yelled at Luffy.

as everyone was continuing walking in the hot desert Cray then looked at the front of his hand and noticed a glassy spot on it.

Hmm. Cray what's wrong?' Chopper said

'What? Oh it's nothing' Cray said

Then what's going on with your hand?' Chopper said

I don't know maybe I might be getting sunburn or something for being in the sun for to long,' Cray said

Chopper just looked at Cray with concern

Look I'll be fine Chopper... I just need to get out of the sun for a while.' Cray said touching his hand.


(Earlier)

CROCODILE!" Luffy yelled running around in the desert

What is he doing?' Sanji said

He's probably hallucinating again, Jeez, can he just stay out of trouble for one minute chopper were going to need you.' Nami said

'He's out of commotion for the moment.' Zoro said

Well okay, I guess that leaves it you then.' Nami said

Why me?' Zoro said

'Because I seek to remember a certain debt you owe me.' Nami said

Erhhh.' Zoro growled

Fine.' Zoro said walking with Chopper on the sled.

Your real classy Nami.'Cray said

You think so? Well how about you join and help him to Cray you still owe me as well.' Nami said

What?! Why!?' Cray said

Because of your mouth!' Now go and help him!' Nami yelled

Fine!..besides you'll keep nagging at me if I don't.' Cray said catching up with Zoro.

What was that?' Nami said

Nothing!' Cray yelled running

Zoro and Cray were walking up a sand hill and saw Luffy running in circles.

Luffy come on we have to catch up with the others.' Zoro said

CROCODILE!' Luffy yelled

Chopper could you do something?' Zoro said

Chopper was just lying there exhausted in the sled

Here I'll try to get him up.' Cray said getting his water canteen out wpand walking towards Chooper.

There you are CROCODILE!" Luffy yelled throwing a lunch at Zoro

Luffy then punched near Zoro so hard that the sand hill that they were standing on collapsed covering both Chooper and Cray in the sand.

(Coughing)...what the hell you guys!" Cray said

Owww hot!' Chopper said digging himself out of the sand

Are you okay Chopper?' Cray said

I'm fine.' Chopper said.

Here.' Cray said handing him the canteen.

Thanks.' Chopper said getting a drink.

They both climbed up the sand hill and saw Zoro and Luffy in a frozen position, with both of them punching the other.

Ahhh what in the world happened to you two.?' Chopper said

Come on you guys wake up half of your bodies is stuck in the sand.' Cray said

Chopper then opened a bottle of strong scented medecine to wake up Zoro

(Cough)...thanks for that.' Zoro said

What were you two doing?' Cray said

Long story...where are the others?' Zoro said

I don't know I was caught in the sand.' Cray said

'Guess were just going to have follow there footsteps.' Zoro said

'What footsteps?' Chopper said


(Present time)

Zoro, Cray, Chooper, and Luffy were now walking in the desert, with Luffy lagging behind very tired.

Is Luffy going to be alright?' Chopper said

He'll be fine.' Cray said

Yeah. It'll take a lot more then a little heat to bring him down.' Zoro said

So Cray, is this what pirates are really like?'Chopper said

Well that just depends on what your view on pirates is."Cray said

So why did you become one?' Chopper said questioning.

"Let's just say I didn't really have that many choices." Cray said

You said you wanted become an artist right?' Chopper said

'Well technically I am one already, but I'm not the 'best' one...My Great Grandfather was one of those great artists and I want to become one just like him, he use to be known all around the East Blue for his art." Cray said

"And so you joined the crew to make it to the Grandline to become one?" Chopper said

Thats right...and the crew just rubbed off on me after a while. We've been through a lot, some good and some bad." Cray said

"Oh." Chopper said feeling uneasy.

"But don't worry chopper you get use to it after a while, am I right Zoro?' Cray said

"Whatever you say that makes you feel good about it Cray." Zoro said nonchalantly

Oh come on Zoro, it's not that bad.' Cray said

THERE!...SHADE!" Luffy yelled pointing at a large rock.

Gumo gumo no..Luffy yelled stretching his arms to the rock

Rocket!" Luffy yelled snatching all three of them in the process.

Ahhhhhhhh!" All three of them yelled crashing into the boulder

Shade.' Luffy said relaxed laying on the sand

I SHOULD CUT YOU IN HALF!' Zoro yelled in anger

Zoro...On second thought..I take it back..it is THAT bad.' Cray said in pain.

Where's Chooper?...Oh there he is why is he over there?.' Luffy said

Cray then hit Luffy in the back of the head.

You idiot! You knocked Chopper right out!' Cray yelled running towards Chopper

As Cray was getting to him he felt himself sinking in the sand.

"What the Hell!?" Cray said as he was quickly going down. And then suddenly he felt himself falling down and then landed on something really hard and then rolling off it.

"Ow." Cray said getting himself up and wiping off the sand off his clothes. And then suddenly Zoro fell down.

You okay?' Cray said giving him a hand.

I'm fine.' Zoro said

Hey you guys! What's down there!?' Luffy yelled and also jumping down the hole Zoro fell through.

Well it appears to...Luffy why did you jump down!? What about Chopper?!' Cray said

Waahh! Chopper yelled falling down to them

"Great now all of us is stuck down here.' Zoro said

all of them were looking around the strange ruins

What do you think this place is?'' Cray said

"It looks like a giant dome.'" Zoro said

'They look like ancient ruins.' Chopper said

How can you tell?' Zoro said

Chopper then walked towards a strange large stone cube.

"Look at this weird cubed stone, it's engraved with rows of weird characters, it's an ancient language that I saw in a book before." Chopper said

"why would something like this be underground though?"Cray said taking a good look at the Cube with interest,

"I don't know why? was it built underground? Or was it buried after it was built? either way I get the feeling they were trying to hide it." Chopper said

"Well who ever made this building it seems that it took them a long time." and what ever it is it has nothing to do with us so what's the point in thinking about it now. and besides we have to figure out a way out of here, Right captain?' Zoro said

"Ugh. do we have to right now?' Luffy said annoyed

"Just get up." Zoro said

"I don't wanna can we just stay here for little longer it's hot outside." Luffy said

"BONK!"

"Right we got to get out of here...Gomu gomu no pistol...' Luffy said stretching his arms towards the hole to grab sides but it kept collapsing every time he did.

Luffy why don't you just grab the bould-' Zoro said

Uhhhhh! This is pissing me off gomu gomu no...Gatling. Luffy yelled punching at surface near the hole making it bigger and shattering the boulder that was up top.

Great how are we all going to get out of here now that you shattered the boulder up their!?' Zoro said

Luffy then started to wrap one of his stretched out arms around a pillar.

Everyone grab on.' Luffy said

Oh now I see what he's doing..' Zoro said

Come on Cray, Chopper.' Zoro said

Alright..just give me a minute.' Cray said putting his notebook back.

Zoro, Chopper, and Cray both grabbed on Luffy.

Okay hang on GOMU GOMU NO!" Luffy yelled as all of them were spinning around rapidly

SPRING!" Luffy yelled as they launched right out of the underground building

How are we going to land!" Chopper yelled

'Don't know.' Luffy said

This is going to hurt!' Cray yelled

They then crashed landed right into the sand, tumbling around all of them half buried in sand.


(Later that day as the sun was going down)

Come on you guys hurry up.' Luffy said

Oh now he has all of his energy now that its cooled off.' Zoro said

Cray then looked at his hand and noticed that the thing on his hand has withered away.

"hmmm." Cray said Weirdly

Chopper then started to smell something familiar.

What is it Chopper do you smell something?' Cray said

Yeah...it's Nami's perfume in the direction of the setting sun.' Chopper said pointing.

"Finally!' Luffy yelled running

Hey wait up!' Everyone yelled running after him

Heys guys!' Luffy yelled out in the distance Seeing everyone along with Cray, Zoro, and Chopper

Your all alright!' Vivi yelled

Were have you guys been?" Sanji said

Where do you think?' Cray said

Well were glad that you guys are safe.' Nami said

So Vivi how much longer now to Yuba?' Luffy said

Vivi was looking around and then she noticed some large rocks in the distance.

Guys! Were close now, Yuba is just passed those Rocks over there one last push and I,m sure we'll make it." Vivi said

YEAH FINALLY!: Luffy yelled running out while everyone looked

NOT THAT WAY!: Everyone yelled


(Rainbase: Rain Dinner Casino)

"Yes everything's in place, we have a hundred and fifty billions who are standing by in Nanohana to replace the ones that were taken out by Fire Fist Ace, I have also called Mr. 2 back here, it appears that he failed to find and eliminate Mr. 3. the officer agents have been instructed to gather tonight at the Spiders Cafe at 8:00 tonight it,s 5;00 now so they should be on their way there now." Miss all Sunday said

"Good." Crocodile said blowing out smoke from his Cigar.

(Spiders Cafe)

Mr. 6 and Miss Mothers day has just arrived seeing Miss Merry Christmas and Mr.4 sitting down by the bar. Mr.6 was wearing an Umbrella Hat and and sat down along with Miss Mothers day

Its about time you two morons got here we were waiting forever for you stupid stupid people, it's almost 8:00!' Miss Merry Christmas impatiently yelled

'Oh shut up we still have 2 hours left you Hag.' Mr. 6 said taking a seat

'So what is it you have to drink here? Mr.6 said taking his umbrella hat off.

Cactus juice and tap water., Paula said

Give me tap.' Mr. 6 said

Paula handed him a cup of water and Mr.6 drank half of it. He then started to use his Logia clay abilities to make some substance of clay and started to shape a pot out of it.

So when are the others coming?' Miss Mothers Day said sitting down crossing her legs

Who knows, but they better be here soon it's almost time to go.' Paula said

'Un...deux...trois'

Un...deux...trois'

'Un...deux...trois''

Bon Clay (aka Mr.2) danced his way towards the door.

greetings and salutations everyone!' Mr 2 sang entering the cafe with a few of his crew members outside the door dancing

your a freak.' Paula said

I am not a freak Paula I am a talented dancer that's practicing my craft...I will take a sparkling water please.' Mr. 2 said

Don't have any." Paula said

DON'T HAVE ANY! give me a break that's what all class ballerinas drink!" Mr. 2 Said

Mr.2 then looked at his crew members.

You three are still here? you guys can leave now, and don't forget to practice your dancing.' Mr.2 said

Yes Mr. 2. Mr. Bon Clay sir!' The three said twirling off

'Oh nice so I see the fatty, the old hag, Mr. Pots and the Insect are here as well.' Mr. 2 said

Why don't you shut your fat mouth! you weirdo dancing freak of nature." Miss Merry Christmas said

"Well nice to see you." Mr. 2 said

all is left is Mr. 1 and Mr.3 to show up." Mr. 6 said

I wouldn't be so sure of Mr. 3 showing up if he wants to stay alive that is." Mr.2 said

"what do you mean? did he fail an assignment?" Mr. 6 said

'Yes and I was tasked to eliminate him but he was gone by the time I got their." Mr. 2 said

'...Well that's a damn shame." Mr. 6 said finishing up one pot and putting it on the table.


( 1 hour and 55 minutes Later)

Only five more minutes until the appointed time..oh i'm so bored..time to practice my spinning.." Mr. 2 said spinning with Mr. 4 laughing in amusement

"Stop it! just looking at hurts!" miss Merry Christmas said

Errr what is your problem you old hag do you want to fight or something!" Mr. 2 said

"do you really think you can handle me!?" Miss Mothers Day

You two are really starting to annoy me with your yelling knock it off!" Mr. 6 said.

"Oh yeah what are you going to do about it?" Mr. 2 said

"Don't test me Mr. 2" Mr . 6 said

Give it a rest you guys as soon as Mr. 1 shows up..." Miss Mothers Day said

Then out of nowhere there was a huge crash in the door and the entire door shattered with 3 people bloodied and bruised who were part of Mr.2's crew.

Huh? what are you doing here and why aren't you practicing your dancing like I told you?" Mr. 2 said

b-b-because of him." The man said

Mr. 1 then appeared.

oh so these men are acquaintances of yours...you see i found them acting suspicious out in the desert... don't worry i doubt they'll die you seem unnecessarily concerned about them...fostering friendships will only make you weaker." Mr.1 said to Mr. 2

Those men are Mine they don't belong to you!' Mr. 2 said ready to attack Mr. 1

You better stop Mr. 2!" Miss Merry Christmas said

Mr. 2 and Mr.1 then began to fight which lead to Mr.2 Kicking Mr. 1 through a wall but with no scratch on him.

Do You want to die that badly?" Mr.1 said

Hold it that's enough messing around Mr.1." Paula said

Out of my way Miss Double finger I still haven't killed him yet." Mr. 1 said

"Stop squirming around Mr. 2 your only going to make it worse." Mr. 6 said holding Mr, 2 with a large Clay hand.

"stop it! let me Go! get this crap off of me!" Mr. 2 said squirming.

That goes for you to Mr. 2, it's 8 a clock. all the agents that should be here whats more, a letter about our orders has jjust arrived at the spiders cafe so... were instructed to head to rain base the city of dreams and in that city we'll meet someone a man we know but his face we have never seen...were heading to meet the boss" Paula said


(Yuba)

,No...it can,t be." Vivi said

So...This is Yuba?" Cray said

"It doesn,t look good, it doesn,t look that much different then that eramalu place." Zoro said

Yuba was deep in sand and some of the buildings were half buried.

,I thought you said this place was an Oasis." Sanji said

It was...It seems that the sandstorms has taken it as well." vivi said about to cry.

Then they suddenly started to hear digging they went further into the town more and saw a man shoveling some sand out of a pit.

"i,m assuming your travelers..you guys must be exhausted from being in that heat for so long. sorry but this town is a bit dry to...but your welcome to stay here for a little while." The man said

'thank you but we came her because we thought the rebel army was in this town." Vivi said

what business do you have with the rebel army?...CURSE OF ALL OF YOU IF YOUR HERE TO JOIN THE REBEL ARMY YOU CAN JUST GO BACK WHERE YOU CAME FROM! the old man yelled throwing stuff at them.

whoa calm down old man." Cray said

"If your looking for those fools, look else where there no longer here in this town." The Man said shocking everyone

"WHAT THERE GONE!?" Luffy yelled

"After three years with no rain this land has become increasingly dry sandstorms become regular occurence here little by little the oasis we knew was swallowed up.. until the town became what your seeing it now and when the flow of supplies stopped for this town the Rebel army packed up and left to Katorea." the man said

What?" Vivi said

Katorea? is that somewhere close by Vivi?" Cray said

It's near Nanohana the place we came from." Vivi said

Katorea thats the place where I was when I was separated from Sanji and met Eyelash." Chooper said

wait if Eyelash was there why didn,t he tell us that he was with the Rebel Army?" Sanji said

Eyelash then started talking.

What did he say?" cray said to Chooper

"He said because you guys didn't ask if he was."Chopper said

,Well thats just great we came all this way for nothing

The old man then started to climb pout of the pit

Vivi?" the old man said

Wait a minute shes not a princess or anything!" Luffy yelled

"BONK!"

Nice one Luffy!" Zoro yelled

Princess Vivi is that you?...It's me don,t you recognize me? i look different..I lost some weight I suppose." The old man said

...Toto?" Vivi said covering her mouth about to cry.

"whatever s it,s worth I believe in you and the king..he,s a good man a true king that would never betray his country I know it.." Toto said crying on his knees

THIS REBELLION IS RIDICULOUS, A BUNCH OF FAITHLESS FOOLS! yes this country hasn,t seen rain in three years but I still put my trust in the king..most of the country still have faith in him...So many times I have tried to stop them, but they wouldn't listen, My last effort was with Zoey.' Toto said

Zoey?" Vivi said remembering her friend

Yes...she comes by here sometimes to check up on me...she just left a while ago." Toto said


(Flashback)

I'm sorry but we have to do this, Me and Kohza have no Choice." Zoey said

"It's pointless! please stop this Madness! the king is not a bad person!" Toto said

"I wish I can believe you...but theirs no other way...this country is going to have to change one way or another otherwise everyone will still continue to suffer...If this is the last time we see each other...I just want you to know..I've always loved you like a Father Toto."Zoey said flying off.


(Present)

"the rebellion is not stopping, there planning on settling everything once and for all with a final attack...there backs are against the wall their stuck in a corner...prepared for death." Toto said with tears in his eyes.

"Please Vivi you have stop them from tearing this country apart." toto said

Toto just continued to cry, Vivi slowly walked towards him and handed him a piece of cloth.

" Toto old friend, please don't be worried, were going to succeed, we will stop this." Vivi said

"...Thank you." Toto said wiping his tears away.
