A.N I own Nothing
Sorry this took so long to get up, it's been a busy few weeks for me. I went on holiday and then I got really sick from a bug I picked up while on holiday. Plus there was a lot to cover.
Please Review
Going Merry, Milky Road
The Merry continued along its way back to the edge of Upper Yard, Gan Fall, in an effort to occupy the time on their long journey back along the Milky Road had decided to tell the history of Upper Yard to the straw hats on the ship.
He explained that things brought up by the Knock Up Stream were considered treasures in Skypeian culture, this is because they did not know what the world below was like and due to the fact that Skypiea was a society based off Clouds and Diels it resources were limited by what the clouds could make and produce.
However the blue sea had no such limitations so whenever objects came up they were always met with curiosity and awe.
"So things that we use every day are considered treasures up here?" Sanji asked.
"Yes but the most sought after tressure is Verth," Gan Fall claimed.
"Verth…don't you mean Earth?" Nami asked.
"If that is what you call it then yes. You see because we live on clouds growing things like vegetables and fruit is difficult. However Verth has always grown the healthiest and nutritious plants, so it is considered the most holist of treasures," Gan Fall claimed.
"So what does this have to do with Upper Yard and the Shandorins?" Usopp asked.
"When Upper Yard burst into the sky…it was the largest amount of Verth anyone had ever seen, the People were shocked, greed overtook them. The amount of life-bearing potential of Vearth blinded them to all else…even the fact that it was inhabited," Gan Fall claimed.
"So, the Skypieans just invaded Upper Yard and forced the surviving Shandorins out of their own home because they wanted some dirt?" Sanji asked.
"That is correct. This happened over 400 years ago, but you must understand their reasoning."
"No. There is no excuse or any justification for invading and forcing people out of their homes," Nami snapped back.
"You are right there is not," Gan Fall conceded. "But I am not justifying anything; I am explaining their reasons, however weak they may be,"
"So what about the Shandorns? Did no one ever wonder why they were on Upper Yard or Care that they had been brought up against their will?" Usopp asked.
"No…our greed blinded us to their plight. We should have helped them or accepted that the Shandorans who were brought up with the island lived there but we didn't. The battle did not last long as the Shandorins had no knowledge of Sky-warfare and in the end they were chased from their home," Gan Fall finished.
"They were frightened and confused…but we attacked them and all it brought was a war that has lasted over 400 years,"
"So what about Enel?" Sanji asked suddenly. "Where the hell does he come into this?"
Gan Fall seemed to stare into open space for a while, seemingly thinking back, and judging by his expression his thoughts were not pleasant ones.
"Enel and his priests had invaded from another Sky Island six years ago. He and the priests enslaved my guards and the inhabitants of Skypia, back when I was God," Gan Fall claimed.
"Enel is dangerous. His priests are lethal, your friends are going to need to work together and work efficiently to defeat him," Gan Fall claimed.
"Wait you were the God before Enel? Why did you not try and end the fighting?" Nami asked.
"I did, but nothing short of forfeiting Upper Yard to the Shandorins was enough, I tried to find a peaceful soliton but the Shandorins would not here any of them," Gan Fall answered.
"If all they wanted was their Island back then why not just give it to them?" Sanji asked.
"Because by that time we Skypians had come to depend on it for our survival. We could not give it up, doing so would set us back hundreds of years, not to mention our society had been a lot more prosperous ever since we had first taken Upper Yard 400 years ago," Gan Fall claimed.
"So it was a case of an impossible choice. You wanted piece but you weren't willing to risk your own people for it," Usopp claimed.
"Yes I admit it was wrong to put my people over the needs of the Shandorans but I was trying to find a solution that would keep both our people happy," Gan Fall explained.
Once Gan Fall had finished explain the history of Skypiea Usopp asked about Sky warfare, Gan Fall explained about the different types of Dials that could be found in a house but had been converted into weapons.
"Heat Dials like the ones used in ovens can be added to weaponry to allow a weapon to ignite whatever it touches." Gan Fall explained, the crew immediately thought of the priest Shura and the bun damage done to the Merry.
"Flame Dials can be placed in the mouth of the user to give the appearance of their user being capable of breathing fire." Gan Fall continued
"And that… is an Impact Dial." Gan Fall delivered as the crew-members assembled watched.
Gan Fall had simply asked Sanji to hit the top of the shell, when Sanji proceeded to kick the top of the shell they were surprised to see that not only did Sanji not kick a hole straight through the deck, the shell didn't even move.
The cook was then told to place the shell against a barrel on deck, and activate it, the second Sanji hit the button on the back of the Dial it activated and all the force absorbed from Sanji's kick was blasted outwards. The Barrel was blown to thousands of pieces and Sanji was sent flying by the Impact.
Ignoring Sanji's continuous whacks to his head for not warning him about the backlash, Gan Fall then explained about other Dials used in combat.
"Impact Dials and their much stronger cousins Reject Dials can be used to absorb attacks and re-apply them."
Usopp and Sanji recalled the fight with Satori and his use of Impact Dials, these things had the potential to harm even Luffy who was by far the toughest member of the crew.
"So Satori was using Impact Dials against us," Sanji realised.
"Wish we had known that earlier," Usopp huffed.
Blue Sea dwellers do not understand Diels and Sky-warfare, that is why they do not survive up here and often fall victim to the priests," Gan Fall claimed.
"So what about Mantara? How does that work?" Sanji asked.
"That is different, anyone can use Diels because they are common objects, but Mantara is something on a whole other level," Gan fall claimed.
"So what does it do?" Nami asked.
"Well from what I understand every living thing whether it be plants, animals or people has a voice. As long as there alive so is that voice. Mantara is the ability to hear that voice," Gan Fall claimed.
"So Mantara is like hearing a person's life force….or Aura?" Usopp asked.
"Yes, if you can hear the voice than you can predict what a person is going to do next. I myself cannot use it not do I know whether it can be taught or you have to be born with it,"
"Is there any way to block out the voice?" Nami asked. She was hoping to find some advantage over Enel and his men.
"Yes, you must die, only then will the voice be silenced," Gan fall said gravely.
"So I'm guessing Enel can use Mantara too," Usopp said.
"Yes and so can his priests, Enel can hear everything on Skypiea Island…it's how he knows who to send his divine punishment too," Gan Fall claimed.
"I see…so that's why everyone was avoiding us in town," Usopp said.
"Had they interfered Enel would have known and struck them down," Sanji said gravely.
Suddenly a flash of light appeared, blinding the crew for a second.
"Nah my aims pretty spot on," a new voice said, once the flash had passed.
Everyone on the ship tuned to the source of the voice and there sitting on the railing was Enel. He raised one hand as a greeting.
"Yo," he said.
"E…E…Enel…" Gan Fall gasped.
"Wait he's Enel?!" Usopp panicked.
"You basted!" Sanji yelled.
He rushed to the god, launching a kick at him, however the kick never landed though as in another flash of light, Sanji dropped to the floor, smoke emanating from his body which had seemingly been burnt to a crisp.
"Sanji!" Nami screamed.
Nami ran over to the fallen cook to check on Sanji as Usopp aimed his slingshot at the intruder, who was sitting on the ship's railing with a board look.
"He's not breathing…." Nami panicked as she tried to revive Sanji.
Usopp looked in fear at the intruder and even though he was very clearly afraid he drew his weapon and pointed it at Enel.
"Hey you….What did you do to Sanji….You better not try it again or my 8,000 followers will kill you," the sniper cried, his eyes watering in fear as he loaded his slingshot.
Enel gave him a board look.
"If…If you leave now then I'll let you live," Usopp declared.
Enel vanished in an instant, for a brief second Usopp thought he had frightened the god off but Enel repapered directly in front of the sniper. He placed his index finger against the sniper's head and with another flash, Usopp crumpled to the ground, looking just as badly burned as Sanji.
"Usopp!" Nami cried, staring at their attacker.
"You fiend, why did you do that?" Gan Fall demanded.
"What? They attacked me," Enel answered.
He then looked at Nami and sent a murderers glare at her.
"Scream and you die," He warned.
Nami instantly covered her mouth with her hands and nodded, she was completely and utterly frozen in fear. Enel turned his attention back to Gan Fall.
"Now that all interruptions have been dealt with…I can get down to business," Enel smiled.
"I see…you're here to kill me," Gan Fall said.
"Huh? Why would you think that?" Enel asked.
"Because I've been saving people and attacking your priest's non-stop for the last six years," Gan Fall stated.
"Oh yeah…you have hmmm…well let's just say that I forgive you," Enel said.
"Really?" Gan Fall asked suspiciously.
"Sure, I mean you were a real pain but your actions were not entirely unwelcome. Do you know how boring it was, everyone afraid to speak up or stand up…you were a welcome distraction," Enel claimed "I mean I didn't kill you for the same reason I didn't wipe out the Shandorins,"
"So I was nothing more than entertainment to you?" Gan Fall asked.
"Call it however you want," Enel shrugged.
"So if you're not here to kill me then why are you here?" Gan Fall asked.
"Oh right I came to tell you that I'm leaving," Enel claimed.
"Leaving? Gan Fall asked.
"Yep, you can be god again if you want…I don't care," Enel claimed.
"Just like that? No fight, no conditions…you're just up and leaving?" Gan Fall asked in surprise.
"Yep, the shines empty right now so if you want go ahead and take it,"
"So I go back there and it's mine again…do you think I'm an idiot?" Gan Fall asked.
"No I think you're an annoying old man but…you're the most qualified to replace me so…go ahead and take back your throne,"
Gan Fall did not trust Enel, however if it was true that the tyrant was leaving then he would not waste this chance.
"When will you be gone?" Gan Fall asked.
"Sometime in the next couple of hours…maybe three or four hours…I have to make preparations after all,"
"Then you won't mind if I wait until your gone for good then," Gan Fall said.
"Hey do whatever you want, but just don't wait too long," Enel advised cryptically.
Gan Fall narrowed his eyes, he wondered what Enel meant by that.
"Well I should head off, things to do, preparations to make and all. I'd say it's been fun but…well I haven't started yet," Enel clamed and disappeared in a flash of light.
Nami stared in fear at the spot where Enel had disappeared from, she didn't say a word fearing the god would come back and smite her. Gan Fall noticed Namis petrified state and gently put his and on her shoulder.
"Miss…Miss, are you alright?" Gan Fall asked gently.
This snapped Nami out of it and she looked at the old knight in fear.
"H…H…He…" Nami stuttered.
"Do not worry he is gone now," Gan Fall assured "and we should take care of your friends,"
Gan Fall looked at the charred bodies of Usopp and Sanji, pushing her fear aside she nodded. Nami went over to examine them; she was no doctor but knew some first aid. Thankfully neither one was dead but at the same time they were barely alive.
"We should move them into the Cabin," Nami claimed.
Gan Fall Nodded, while he himself was still recovering from his fight; the old man called Pierre over and had the bird turn into his horse form and help carry the too injured pirates into the Cabin. Once inside Nami made two makeshift beds out of spare blankets and laid them down on them.
She looked over at Connor who was still sleeping in the bed; the whole point of sailing the Merry off the Island was to avoid situations like this.
"Chopper….where are you when we need you?" Nami asked before walking back out onto the deck.
A Swamp area on Upper Yard
Chopper was exploring some ruins he had found, he was looking around for the others and completely unaware that he was being watched with curiosity by Priest Gedatsu. The priest had been dealing with the Shandorin warriors who were foolish enough to challenge him; they had not been much of a threat.
However when a tiny bipedal animal had walked into his ordeal Gedatsu had been intrigued and watched the little creature explore the ruins, he had not attacked right away because the local wildlife was not part of Enel's game and he had never seen such a creature before.
"A Tanuki? What's it doing here?" Gedatsu wondered.
Cloud River, Going Merry
Nami walked back out onto the deck, she let out along sigh.
"Are they going to be alright?" Gan Fall asked
"I think so, Sanji and Usopp are tough," Nami claimed, though she was not convinced.
"What about that boy. Any change?" Gan Fall asked.
Nami shook her head.
"No, he's still out," Nami claimed.
Gan Fall was about to respond when he heard the light tap of two people touching down on deck. Both Nami and Gan fall looked over to see two intruders on the deck. They had goat like heads and they're bodies were shaped like giant balls. They wore white jumpsuits with a white sash, orange shoes and gloves. They also had yellow sunglasses that cover up their eyes completely.
"What now?!" Nami asked irritably
"I'm Hotori!" one sang.
"And I'm Kotori!" the other continued.
"And we'll make you pay for what you did to our brother Satori," they said together.
"Brother?" Nami asked.
"One of Enels Priests is there older brother," Gan Fall claimed.
"Wait…wasn't that the one Luffy and the others beat?" Nami asked.
"Indeed, it is likely they want revenge," Gan Fall claimed and he picked up his lance "Stand back, I may be injured but I can easily take care of these two clowns,"
"We're not clowns," Both Hotori and Kotori declared.
Nami however brought out her Climate Tact and got into a fighting position. Gann Fall and Nami were fully prepared to fight Hotori and Kotori however the two invaders grabbed each other's arms and started running around in circles.
"W…What are they doing?" Nami asked.
"Probably some cheap and childish trick," Gran Fall stated "We need to know what kind of Dials they have,"
Suddenly one of the two brothers flew out of the spin and out stretched his arm at Nami, Nami froze thinking that she had been caught and instead of being blasted by something dangerous she got a face full of farts.
"What is that…it stinks," Nami complained as she coughed.
"It's my farts, I stored it in a flavour Dial," Kotori said.
"WHY WOULD YOU BRING THAT INTO A BATTLE!" Nami screamed.
"Why indeed," Hotroi said.
Gan Fall rushed into the fray, seeing as the two brothers were distracted by Nami. He lunged his lace at Hotori but Kotori got in his way with his hand outstretched. Gan Fall brought his cloak in front of him to shield him from and attack but all he got was farts.
"Your tricks won't work on me," Gan Fall said.
Kotori jumped back and was replaced with Hotori.
"Burn," Hotori said and raised his hand and flames sprayed out from it.
Fire blasted across the deck and when it died down there was a hole in the railing on the side of the ship and Gan Fall was nowhere to be seen.
"Got him," Hotroi said.
Suddenly Gan Fall sprang back up over the side of the ship and lunged at Kotori, he slicked him with his lance before knocking both brothers off the ship.
"I got one but the other will be back," Gan Fall said.
Nami got an idea and ran down to the lower deck of the ship she ran over to Pierre and put on Gan Falls gauntlet just as Hotori jumped back up onto the ship.
"HOW DARE YOU DO TH-HMPH!" Hotori started but was cut off when Nami jumped and landed on his face.
"Impact," She said and slammed the palm of the gantlet down on Hotoris face.
Nami and Hotori were sent flying back in opposite directions and Nami was caught by Pierre. She screamed in pain from the force of the Impact Dial.
"AGGGGGGHHHHH THAT ALMOST BLEW MY ARM OFF!" Nami cried.
"Using an Impact Dial dose have that effect, but you did a good job," Gan Fall claimed.
Nami looked at the old knight and blushed a bit from his praise; she was very pleased with herself that she had protected both the ship and the crew. Suddenly the door to the Cabin opened both Gan Fall and Nami looked over at the door and in a mix of shock and relief.
Connor was rubbing his eyes and held his sword in his hand.
"Hey…I heard noises…what did I miss?" Connor asked tiredly.
Nami stared at Connor in for a few seconds; Connor loomed around noticing the ship was moving ant it was not on the Alter anymore.
"Why are we moving…what happened to the Alter?" Connor asked confused.
Nami smiled and walked over to him, she knelt down so she was eye level with the boy.
"Are you okay?" Nami asked concerned.
"I'm fine…a little tired and sore but fine," Connor claimed.
"You sure?"
Connor nodded.
"What happened? We found you unconises and in a lot of pain," Nami asked.
"Oh that….I left the ship…" Connor said in a small voice.
"So?" Nami asked.
"Back at Angel beach, when we were getting ready to leave…Luffy told me to stay on the ship until he and the others came back…but I left it," Connor said.
Namis eyes went wide, she remembered that.
"So…you were being punished then," Nami said sadly.
Connor nodded.
"Yes," Connor confirmed.
"But…if you knew you would be punished why did you leave the ship?" Nami asked.
"Because chopper jumped into the cloud lake save the wired knight and his bird, he couldn't swim so I jumped into save them…only when I got out…I couldn't make it back to the ship before I passed out from the pain," Connor said shamefully.
"So you jumped into them and carried them back up to the top of the Alter…while being punished?" Nami asked.
Connor nodded.
"It hurt a lot," he admitted "The longer I was off the ship the worse it got,"
Nami pulled Connor into a hug she could not belive he did something so brave and so stupid at the same time…but then again he was sailing with the Straw Hats. Nami made a mental note to talk to Luffy about this later and have him give Connor permission to disobey orders if the situation called for it.
"Umm….so…what happened? Why are we moving?" Connor asked.
Nami let him go and she explained what had happened while Connor had been recovering. While Nami was explain things Gan Fall put his Armor on and decided to investigate Enel's claims of Gods Shrine being empty.
Nami complained about him leaving her alone but Enel gave a quick apology before taking off on Pierre, leaving Nami with Connor.
"So…Upper yard is the other half of Jaya…and it has the city of gold that Noland found," Connor summarised.
"Yep, I'm taking the ship to the outer shore of the Island where we will meet up with Luffy and the others who will have stolen all the gold," Nami explained.
"So…Luffy, Usopp and Sanji came back to the ship then?" Connor asked.
"Yeah, last night," Nami confirmed "we were all on it,"
Connor nodded, if Luffy had returned to the ship that meant he would no longer be unable to leave, it also meant that if the situation demanded it he could leave the ship without worry or fear of being punished again.
Not too long after Nami had brought Connor up to speed on the current events the Merry had been intercepted by a small waver which had emerged from the forest. The waver carried Conis and Pagaya along with a small girl that looked younger than Connor.
Nami was happy to see the two were safe and that Enel had not killed them, though she was curious on how they came out of the forest on a river that was not there. Pagaya showed them a Milky diel that allowed for new paths of cloud to be created, he explained that by using these dials they were able to cut straight through the island in record time; Pagaya brought extras for the straw hats to use to escape Upper Yard.
By using the dials the Merry and its passengers began to follow a new current, one that would take them straight out to the cloud sea surrounding Upper Yard, bypassing the danger of the road they had been following prior.
"So…what's with the girl?" Nami asked and pointed at Asia.
"Her name is Asia she was riding a Waver towards Upper Yard, she lost control and we picked her up. She's from the Shandorin tribe," Conis claimed.
Nami looked at the girl in surprise, she walked over to her.
"So, you're from the same tribe as the Guerrillas attacking the island, a Shandorian?" Nami inquired.
"That's right, I'm a brave warrior of Shandora. Fear me Blue Sea Dweller," Aisa demanded.
Nami did not look impressed.
"So you want to fight, I'll use my Impact Dial on you," Nami warned and raised the gantlet that Gan Fall had left her.
"Nami where are the others?" Conis asked.
"In the cabin there hurt pretty badly," Nami answered.
Conis went into the cabin and she gasped in shock at how injured Usop and Sanji were, she came back out and asked Nami where the medical supplies were and Nami left Asia to go get them. Asia looked around the ship and Connor came over to her.
"Your names Asia right…I'm Connor," Connor introduced trying to be friendly.
Asia however stared at Connor in both shock and confusion, Connor felt a little awkward about it.
"What?" he asked.
"You…you're…" Asia stared but she suddenly collapsed on the deck and started screaming.
"Aisa? What's wrong?" Nami rushed over, followed by Payaga and Conis.
"I could hear them, their voices, they vanished!" The girl replied, sobbing openly as she recalled the images and the sounds that had briefly flashed through her mind.
"Hear what?" Connor asked. He listened but could not hear anything but the sounds of battle.
"Voices…Wait….Can you use that Mantra thing that the priests use?" Nami asked urgently
"Yes, ever since I was born, I just keep on hearing people's voices vanish! I even see how it happened!" Asia claimed, everyone could tell by her voice that she was scared.
"That sounds awful!" Conis exclaimed, throwing her hands to clasp over her mouth.
"Mantara…what's Mantra?" Connor asked.
"It's the power to hear and read peoples aruras…by using Mantara you can appently predict people's moves before they're made," Nami claimed.
Connor stared at her in shock and then looked back at Asia, this Mantra sounded a lot like his own ability with slight differences.
Nami bent down to Asia and put her hand gently on the girls shoulder.
"Aisa, I'm sorry to have to ask you this, but…" Nami said, she looked uncomfortable for a second as she considered her question. "But, have any of our Nakama, the people from the blue sea…have any of them…vanished?"
"No." the girl replied, still sounding upset "Apart from those two who vanished a not long ago,"
"The two who vanished…can hear anyone in the cabin?" Nami asked.
Asia shook her head.
"Hold on…Sanji and Usopp are still alive. How can they vanish?" Connor asked.
Nami looked over at Connor.
"Perhaps a voice vanishing doesn't necessarily mean they're dead?" Nami suggested.
"No, but it usually does, especially on this island." Aisa said bitterly. "Most of the people getting hurt are the Divine enforcer squads and…and my people."
Nami breathed a sigh of relief, before feeling slightly guilty for it. She had just heard Aisa express fear at how most of her people were dying and her first reaction was to be relieved regarding the fate of her friends.
"Can you tell us how the battles are going?" Connor asked.
"Three of the priests are now down." Aisa claimed "Satori vanished yesterday, Shuna was beaten by Wiper about 20 minutes ago and Gedatsu was just defeated by that Tanuki"
"Chopper he's a Reindeer not a Tanuki," Nami confirmed. "."
Asia slowly got up and looked over towards the forest, like she was watching something from afar.
"There's a lot of smaller fights going on, I can hear them all," Aisa said sadly.
"When you say, 'hear' do you literally hear them?" Nami pondered.
"No, it's more like I can just tell roughly where everyone is. It's like I have a compass in the back of my head that points to people…only it points to a lot of people. Usually angary ones,"
"That sounds like a similar ability to Connors," Nami said.
Aisa looked at Connor in surprise. Before anyone could respond Pagaya brought up the now fixed Waver that he had offered to repaired earlier. Nami was delighted of course and Pagaya explained how this waver would be faster than the one that Nami had ridden earlier due to it having an incredibly powerful Wind Dial in its engine.
While a delighted Nami thanked Pagaya, Aisa went to the edge of the ship and stared out into the forest; Connor walked up to her.
"Are you worried about your friends?" Connor asked.
Asia nodded.
"At least you can tell whether or not there alive," Connor said "I have a similar ability to yours…but I can't hear voices,"
"How is it different?" Aisa asked.
"I don't hear people, I see there aruras instead," Connor claimed "But I have to be in view of them for it to work,"
Aisa just stared, considering the older girl's words before suddenly throwing both hands to her head.
"Are you okay?" Connor panicked.
"The… the girl, who sprouts limbs she…" Was all Aisa could manage to mumble out before she paused needing to take a breath.
Connors heart immediately sank, as he began to panic from hearing those words.
'Robin…did her voice vanish?!' he thought
"She… She…." Aisa said, gasping slightly.
"She defeated Yama!" Aisa declared in surprise.
"Who's Yama?" Connor asked.
Aisa explained that he was Enel's chief enforcer, and one step below the priests, but more lethal than two of them, outclassing Satori due to physicality and the fact that he possessed a greater killer instinct, and surpassing Gedatsu by intelligence.
"Robin beat someone stronger than a priest?" Connor asked, genuinely surprised.
"Not definitely stronger. But Yama's hurt or killed more of my people than Satori and Gedatsu put together. I'm glad that he's gone now…that bastard deserved it," Aisa smiled.
"It's must be hard…hearing everyone all the time," Connor said.
"Yeah…but…" Aisa started.
"But?" Connor asked.
"But…" the girl continued.
"I can't hear you…you don't have a voice," Asia said and looked directly at Connor "I could hear everyone on this ship, expect you. In fact…I didn't know you were on the island until I got here,"
"I…I don't have a voice?" Connor gasped.
Aisa shook her head.
This made sense, if the priests possessed and relied on Mantra then Shuna's look of surprise and complete shock that Connor was on the ship now he knew. Shuna must have used Mantra to determine who was on board and if he didn't have a voice to hear or read then the priest could not have known that Connor was even there.
'Does this mean I can't be found by Mantra?' Connor wondered.
Nami brought her new waver over to show the kids and noticed Connors contemplative look along with how Aisa was string at him. She didn't know what the two were talking about.
"Hey Aisa…how old are you?" Nami asked.
"I'm eight," she answered.
Nami nodded and bent down to Connors ear.
"She's too young for you," Nami whispered into Connors ear.
Connor quickly turned and looked at Nami in shock and horror; Nami laughed at the boys' reaction. The Merry continued to sail along the cloud river that Payga had created until it was out of the forest and on the Cloud Sea just off shore of Upper Yard.
Now that they were off the dangerous Island and unknowingly safe from Enel's game Nami was eager to try out her new Waver, she dropped into the seas and jumped on it before testing it by going up and down the shore line.
Connor and Aisa watched until Aisa froze up and announced that another voice had just disappeared. She claimed it was the Reindeer sending Connor into a state of shock. Aisa decided that she needed to find her friend and jumped into the sea swimming towards the island.
Connor jumped in after her, he caught up and tried to stop her from going back onto the Island. Nami spied the two children, she maneuverered her Waver over to them and tried to calm Aisa down but the girl was not hearing it.
The noise unfortunately attracted a gigantic green snake, the length of its body being beyond perception as it was hidden within the trees, everyone started at it astonished that something so big could exist.
"Asia…Connor….get on the Waver," Nami whispered so as to not attract the snakes attrition.
Aisa and Connor quietly climbed on the Waver but the snakes eye spotted them, they tree humans in the after froze trying not to move.
Without warning, the snake started lashing its body wildly, seemingly in pain.
"Hang on, we're getting out of here!" Nami yelled.
Connor and Aisa grabbed onto Nami as she hit the throttle, barely evading the lashing tail of the snake. In her efforts to avoid being smashed by the creature's erratic movements, Nami was forced to steer the waver back into the forest, only for the snake to follow. The giant snake pursued them hissing loudly causing Nami to go faster in desperation and unaware that they had just re-entered Enel's game.
