Wyper's POV

"Let me go you crazy bitch!"

"Negative Hollow!"

"I should dig a hole to die in."

"That's better. You're so much cuter when you're not yelling."

This woman with pink hair dragged me into some cold room and talked with a group of men about various things.

"Wyper!"

I twisted around and saw Luffy was locked in a cage.

"What are you doing?!"

"Get me out of here!" he yelled.

"We'll I have to get out of here myself first!"

"Will you to be quiet! Turn the light on!" a large man said.

This large man pulled Luffy's shadow off the floor and cut it with a pair of scissors.

What the hell.

"Perona bring that one here."

"No he's mine. Don't take his shadow he's perfect as is. Look he has wings!"

"We can just cut them off and put them on a zombie."

"Don't touch my wings!"

"Well we can't leave him with his shadow."

A light turned on again and blinded me. The man peeled off my shadow and cut it away and I passed out.

"You can do whatever you want with him…"

Steve's POV

"WAAHH! That was so sad!" Franky cried and we ran through the mansion.

"Why did you ask him that question?" Robin asked me "and what's with that smile you look creepy."

"Don't worry about it."

"Hey look!" Lil yelled.

Usopp and Chopper were being attacked by zombies. We salted the Zombies and saved Chopper and Usopp before they got taken.

"We weren't fast enough." Franky said "One's missing."

"You two alright?" I asked.

We helped the two up off the floor and headed for the stairs. Robin explained how we hurt the zombies and Usopp told us what happened to Nami, Wyper, and Luffy.

"Let's go back to the ship and regroup." I instructed.

LATER

"Why are the stairs lowered?" Franky asked.

"The dock's all messed up and full of holes." Lil pointed out.

We climbed onboard and saw the ship was wrecked but no zombies were around.

"Hey they're in the dining room!" Usopp yelled.

Franky and I slapped the four around to try and wake them up.

"I'm up!" Rose yelled.

"What about those three?" Lil asked.

"There's a beautiful lady swordsman carrying meat!" Usopp yelled.

"Beauty?"

"Meat?"

"Swordsman?"

"They're hopeless!" Chopper yelled.

"Give me back my shadow!" Luffy tried running out of the room but Franky stopped him.

"Moriah isn't even here stupid."

We filled the four who were missing their shadows in on the situation.

"What do you mean she got kidnapped? Who did it where is he!"

"We have three things to get back." I told them "Nami, Wyper and the shadows."

"You forgot food." Luffy added.

"Fine food. We need to hurry and get Nami before that Absalom guy marries her." I said

"Marry!" Sanji was pretty furious.

"Usopp and Chopper saw Sanji and Luffy's zombies and I saw Rose's." I told them "We'll need to find those three."

"I think I met Zoro's zombie." Luffy added.

"So we track them down and throw salt in their mouths." Zoro said "That will make our shadows come back. What about Wyper's shadow?"

"It's inside a zombie with big black angel wings." Chopper said.

"What about Wyper?" Rose asked "Where's his physical body."

"That woman, Perona, dragged him off."

"How did you find out about the salt trick?" Zoro asked.

"Brook told us." Franky explained.

"Yeah we met him and Papa was very rude." Lil said.

"Oh yeah, that." I said sitting up "We met with him. I've tried blowing off your idea about having him join us because I thought he was just a bag of bones. I was wrong. I've had this feeling, a nagging question my heart wanted the answer to."

Flashback- The Spider Web

"You know going out into the world the way you look would only scare people. You have to know that." I told Brook "most people in your situation would have given up on living a long time ago."

"Steve you're being rude." Robin said.

"Why do you want to leave this devil sea? What are you trying to accomplish? What promise did you make?"

"Have you ever heard that there are some questions that you just shouldn't ask…but I will answer you. Long ago my former pirate crew left a very important member behind. It was hard but we made a promise to return. And then we were wiped out." Brook explained "That left me to wander this sea, alone. I have a long-standing obligation to return. It's been fifty years."

"That's older than me!" Franky yelled.

"That's older than my dad." I added "No one could possibly wait that long."

"I know he's most likely not waiting. But if there is even the smallest chance that he is still waiting, how lonely must he be? He must think we betrayed him. But if he's still waiting think how strong his feelings must be."

"This guy could be dead for all you know." I said.

"I have to get back." Brook said "I have to get back to the coast. We swore to meet Laboon again."

Laboon?!

"Wait your friend's a whale?" I heard Lil ask.

Crocus said he was dead…

"Are you alright?" Robin asked.

He said they went home…

"Death isn't and apology."

What the hell are the chances…?

"STEVE?!"

"Huh?"

"Brook left let's go."

"Yeah let's go."

Flashback End

"And so Brook needs to get back." I told Luffy.

"You all look like you're going to be sick." Chopper said.

"We know him." Luffy explained "Laboon, we met him."

"What?!"

"He's waiting at the twin capes. He's waited for fifty years because they promised to come back." I explained.

Sanji explained to the others what we knew about the whale.

"Hard to believe that he was waiting for that skeleton." Zoro said "Small world."

"Well then it's settled right Luffy." I said looking up.

"Of course Brook has to come with us!"

I just laughed "Yep."

"Well then the number of Shadow we need to get back just went up didn't it?" Zoro said hopping off the ship."

"Let's go." I said jumping down after him "That old guy said if we beat Moriah all the shadows will go back; leave him to me and Luffy."

"He's right up those stairs let's get going and kick his butt!"

"I'll go with Sanji to get Nami." Rose said.

"What about your shadows?" Usopp asked.

"You guys can handle it."

"It's my fault Nami got taken." Usopp said "I'll go with you."

"Franky and I will go look for the skeleton and Wyper." Zoro said.

Usopp handed out bags of salt for everyone to use.

"Understand something." Usopp said "Right now it's midnight and the fog is protecting you four, Brook and Wyper. There's no guarantee the sun won't break through the clouds in the morning. Think of dawn as a time limit."

LATER

We wasted no time breaking through the mass of zombies blocking our path.

"What are you two idiots doing on the ground?" I yelled at Luffy and Sanji

"It's those ghosts again." Robin said.

Usopp killed the zombies trying to drag them away and I scooped the two up and kept moving. Something crashed into the walkway we were on and separated us from Sanji and Rose.

"What the hell happened?!" I asked.

"The stairs are gone!"

"Let's go they'll be fine."

With Chopper as our guide we kept making our way through the mansion. We came out into a large hall with two people in it.

"Hogback!"

"This guy's with Moriah, right?" Luffy asked "Leave him to me."

"Wait!" Chopper said "Please let me do this. The freezer is right there you two go I can handle this."

"Alright." Luffy and I said going to the freezer.

Some lady tried to throw plates at us but Robin stopped her "Go on ahead."

"You're the best!" I yelled as we entered the freezer "You three be careful. There better not be a scratch on those two Chopper, if there is I'll have to teach you a lesson!"

Luffy and I came to the end of a long corridor and into a room with one man, he was huge and had a very strange shape.

"There you are."

Rose's POV

"What the hell do you mean that's Luffy's zombie!" I said trying not to pass out.

The monster ripped a piece of the building off to wear as a hat and wandered off paying us no mind.

"What do we do now it tore down the way across?" Zoro said.

"Give me 30 seconds and I'll be finished." Franky said building a bridge.

"What!"

We used Franky's emergency bridge to cross the gap and enter another room.

"It's so fancy."

"HoroHoroHoro. I planned to let the zombies on the stairs deal with you but Oars got in the way."

"It's the girl who took Wyper!" Usopp said.

"Where's our friend?" I asked.

"You mean the winged man, he's my new plaything. He's waiting for his master to return."

"So you're a pervert." I said.

"I am not! I just like cute things! Negative Hollow!" the woman threw a bunch of ghosts at us.

"Run!"

"I should have had both my arms cut off…"

"You guys get up and go rescue the others." Usopp instructed.

Wyper's POV

"I finally managed to break free of those damn ropes tying me to the bed. What a freak."

I opened the door and stepped out and was greeted by some weird half animal half human zombies.

"It's Mistress Perona's lover."

Her what?! Maybe I should play along and move about freely.

"Yeah uhh…where is the lady?"

"She is currently engaged in combat with the long nosed man from your former crew."

Usopp…

"Her powers don't work on him you must aid her Sir."

"Whatever, which way."

I followed the tiger that walked on two legs and had a atlas beetle horn. He led me to a room where Usopp and the girl with the pink hair were.

"Hey Usopp!"

"Wyper!"

"What are you doing out of bed?" the woman asked.

"I'm not your eye candy." I told her "You can't tie me to a bed and leave."

"Rose was right she is a pervert."

"Grrrr! I am not! I just think his wings are cute!" she said "He's super rare! Raphael!"

"I'm not a collectible stuffed animal!"

The skylight shattered and a man with large pitch black wings came in and kneeled before the woman.

He only nodded his head as his mouth has been sown shut.

"Please take you former master back to his room."

"Wyper that's the guy with your shadow you have to get salt in him to get it back." Usopp said throwing me a bag.

The dark angel flew forward and tried to stab me with a lance.

"Whoa!"

I don't have my skates or my bazooka. I only have the Axe and Impact dials in my pockets.

"Bring it."
