-Chapter One Hundred and Thirty-Nine-

Eneru stopped in his advances toward the ginger, suddenly turning to look back toward the Shandorian warrior who shakily stumbled back up onto his feet.

'Unreal! Even as hurt as he is, he still intends to fight!' Nami gaped in shock as she peered up at the Guerrilla in awe.

"What do you hope to prove?" Eneru asked. "You're going to die anyway, why not make it easy on yourself? Did you say it's been four hundred years? For all that time, you and the Shandorians have been fighting to take back your homeland, and yet you are the only warrior who's managed to make it here?" he questioned, probing the man for answers. "No wonder this nation will soon fall to the Blue Sea and be lost for all eternity" he scoffed, raising an eyebrow as he watched how the warrior slowly began to limp forward.

'How could he do that?' Nami watched as Wyper stumbled forward—quick in catching himself every time gravity started to drag his body downward.

"You're fighting for a lost cause—can't you see that you'll never regain your homeland? So why get back up?" Eneru asked, clearly starting to become annoyed with the Shandorian.

'He's unstoppable' Nami couldn't help but think, watching how the warrior continued forward despite struggling to keep his balance as his body continued to sway while he dragged his feet.

"For my ancestors..." Wyper grunted, not bothering to elaborate any further as if that simple answer explained everything.

"I must confess, I was hoping for a better answer than that" Eneru sighed in disappointment. "But then again, I doubt that you're completely conscious" he said, deciding not to hold the warrior's weak answer against him.

"Look out!" Nami cried out in panic the minute she saw that the blond was preparing to strike the man down once again.

"El Thor..." Eneru wasted no time in sending just a single bolt of lightning down onto Wyper—the attack strong enough to send debris and dust flying around as the impact sent a harsh shockwave throughout the area which caused Nami to tumble right over. What few ruins were still intact soon went tumbling down as the hat that Robin had been wearing earlier was swept away while strands of Skylar's hair were blown about. With deep shaky breaths, Nami hesitantly sat back up and began to assess the damage that had been done—her eyes quick to move from the giant hole in the ground to her unconscious friends. "Of all that stood before me, you are the only one left" she jolted at the blonde's remark as he now peered down at her in both amusement and curiosity as if he hadn't expected her of all people to be the sole survivor.

"I—just hear me out!" Nami frantically cried out as she shakily looked behind her as if gauging whether she'd be able to run away without the risk of being struck down. Eneru only stared, patiently waiting to hear what it was she felt the desperate need to say. "I've always wanted to go to the Endless Vearth—to your dream world!" she nervously laughed as she found herself saying whatever it was she need to say to save herself. "Can I come with you...?" she was automatically relieved when the man seemed to believe her lies as he nodded, now patiently waiting for her to gather whatever she needed before they left. Dragging her Sky Waver beside her, she couldn't help but stop right beside Wyper's body—bending down to wipe away the stray tears that she saw leaking from his eyes.

"What's the matter?" Eneru asked, stopping to look back at the stalling navigator when he saw that she was no longer following him. "Are you having second thoughts?" he asked.

"I haven't changed my mind—I'm coming, hold on!" Nami quickly called over to him as she climbed into her waver and began to follow.

"That thing? Are you sure you want to bring it along?" Eneru inquired, curiously eyeing the waver as if he couldn't see what was so important about it that the young woman wished to bring it along with her.

"Uh...so you don't think I'll need it?" Nami hesitantly asked.

"Honestly, I'm not sure you'll be able to use it where we're going" Eneru admitted. "It's up to you, do as you please" he shrugged with a dismissive wave, making it clear that he didn't really care in the end what it was she wished to bring along with her, only caring that she was willing to come along.

"Uh...thanks for letting me bring it, I just really like this thing" Nami awkwardly thanked before quickly glancing back at the unconscious figures she was leaving behind—glancing back at the friends she was leaving behind in her attempts to keep herself safe and alive.

"Do you mourn them?" Eneru suddenly asked the moment he spotted her staring back the way they had come.

"Uh...no, sir" Nami lied with the shake of her head, feeling it best not to express her true feelings unless she wished to anger the man and suffer his wrath the same way all the others had.

"You don't have to put on such a formal act, you know?" Eneru scoffed, not really seeing the use for the ginger to be so formal with him seeing how they were going to be spending quite a long time together the minute they left for his dreamland. "Express yourself, but don't make the same mistakes as those fools who couldn't comprehend the true power of God—they took me too lightly and forfeited their lives in the process" he said. "Their failure is that their minds were not controlled by fear and so they went unprepared for battle with me, do you understand?" he asked.

"Yes...I suppose so..." she mumbled.

-Skylar's P.O.V-

The first thing I noticed when I awoke was the searing pain that coursed through my body as well as just how oddly warm my skin felt as if it had been baking under the sun this entire time. With a sharp inhale, I let my eyes flutter open and stare up at the sky in a slight daze...

Where was I?

Oh...

The memories from before were quick to come flooding back as my body sluggishly rolled onto its stomach while my arms tingled at the attempts I made to push myself up into a sitting position. Sluggishly did my head lull from side to side the minute I was upright, eyes tiredly looking all around me at the others whose bodies were in a similar state—maybe even worse—to mine.

"Nami?" my voice was pitifully weak and my throat felt sore as I called out the name of the one person that was currently absent. I could find neither her nor Eneru the longer I looked all around, finding nothing more than debris and unconscious bodies scattered about.

"Outside! Finally escaped!" my ears soon perked up to the sound of Aisa's voice as she seemed to almost cheer in relief from wherever she was. "The ground is made of stone—where are we?" she instantly asked before her voice was completely drowned out by Luffy's loud, familiar scream. "What's going on, Luffy? Hey—wait up, Luffy!"

"We're free! We've made it out!" I couldn't stop the weak laugh that shook my body which was then quickly followed by a painful groan as I watched how the rubber man scrambled his way on top of a pile of ruins that weren't too far from where the others and I currently lay. He seemed to just shout at the top of his lungs, his arms thrown up into the air as if he was cheering in victory for finally making it out of that snake. "Woohoo! Where are we? What are these old buildings?" he seemed to just ask as he finally took note of his surroundings. "It looks like this is the place where that huge golden bell is supposed to be."

"What is this place?" Aisa curiously asked. "Wait! Could this be our homeland?!" she gasped at the sudden thought that crossed her mind.

"Your homeland?" Luffy questioned. "Hey, not bad, but where'd that big hole come from?" he asked which slowly caused me to look around once more before my gaze finally settled on the massive hole in the ground that hadn't been there before...must have happened while I was out.

"Luffy—wait! Where are you going this time? Wait for me!" Aisashouted when the rubber man suddenly tumbled down the pile of ruins that he was standing on top of and came rushing toward us. Harshly did he skid to a stop when he first reached Zoro, dropping to his knees in worry as he peered down at the unconscious swordsman.

"Hey, Zoro, what's wrong with you? Come on—say something!" he practically demanded, eyes now wide and frantic as he held his hands out as if afraid to really touch the moss-haired man. "How could this happen to you?!" he shouted in distress before finally, he looked from the swordsman and to the others—gaze soon locking with my own as I continued to silently sit there and stare at him...throat aching and mind just slightly fuzzy as I didn't really know what to say to him the longer I stared at him. "Skylar!" I groaned when he suddenly threw himself over to me, his arms tightly wrapping themselves around my person as he pulled me flush against his chest which caused my body to start screaming in agonizing pain.

"Luffy?!" I gasped as my arms shakily wrapped themselves around him in return, my mind opting to ignore the pain that had shot through my body the minute he wrapped me up in his crushing hold. His hug was nice and I couldn't help but just let my eyes flutter shut as I found myself now thinking that it was Sora who was hugging me and not my captain. For just a moment, I found myself believing that it was my twin who was tightly clutching me in his hold out of worry just like he would when we were younger...

When we were back...

It was nice. The feeling of being held felt nice as I felt my grip tightened as if I was afraid he'd disappear and I'd be left here all alone with nothing but this familiar agonizing pain to keep my company.

"Nami! Skylar, where's Nami?!" Luffy frantically asked the minute he pulled back—his voice snapping me back into reality and reminding me where I was as his hands now painfully clutched my shoulders and he seemed to just look at me in desperation as if he believed that I really did have the answer to his question.

"I don't know..." I truthfully responded, gaze slowly drifting around us once more in search of the ginger that was still nowhere to be seen. "She was here before I passed out, but when I woke up...she was gone..." I admitted.

"You mean she's gone?!" he cried, now grabbing chunks full of his hair in distress as he looked around once more.

"Don't do that" it was automatic the way my hands reached out and grabbed his own, pulling them away from his hair as I softly frowned at the familiar gesture. I understood his distress, but...the idea of someone inflicting such pain onto themselves in such an anxious state made my stomach churn at the familiarity. "Just don't..." I squeezed his hands as I tried to think of what to say to soothe his panic...yet nothing came to mind.

"Wyper?!" quickly was our attention dragged toward Aisa as she rushed right down into the gaping hole that marred the middle of the ruins. "Wyper, no!" she choked out as she disappeared from sight and made her way toward the warrior's side.

"The bazooka guy was really strong, but even he fell in this fight..." Luffy muttered. "Who could have possibly done all this?!" he clenched his jaw in utter frustration as he carefully helped me to stand so that we could both walk over toward the hole in the ground

"It was Eneru..." I bitterly muttered as I leaned my body against his the second my legs began to violently shake as if they didn't like the sudden pressure I was putting on them as I stood there—eyes dull and staring down at the passed-out Shandorian who looked to be burnt to an utter crisp.

"Eneru? Of course!" Aisa frowned. "He's the only one who could do something like this!" she angrily huffed as she allowed Luffy to help her in getting out of the hole

"Eneru, huh? That God guy?" Luffy questioned as both the little girl and I nodded.

"That's the one, he showed up while you both were still inside the snake" I informed the two.

"My Mantra didn't work at all the whole time we were in the snake, so I don't know what happened here!" Asia tearfully huffed. "But I do know that it is Eneru who did this, even if you hadn't told us" she grounded out, her temper now rising as tears continued to build up in the corners of her eyes.

"Robin?" I asked, quickly turning my head as my ears perked up to the sudden sound of her quietly groaning as she finally started to stir. It broke my heart a little to know that she had still fallen even after I had taken that first hit for her...I wonder how long she had stayed conscious before he finally did her in.

"Robin?!" Luffy gasped as we rushed over to the older woman's side and dropped to our knees—I couldn't help but just sigh in relief the minute the pain in my legs started to subside now that I was off them and no longer forcing any sort of pressure onto them.

"Our navigator…she went with him..." Robin weakly panted.

"Nami went with Eneru? Why?" I frowned, brows furrowing in confusion as I watched how she sluggishly shook her head as if she didn't really know the answer and maybe she didn't. I wasn't sure how long she had been awake during whatever had taken place while I was out nor did I know when she had finally slipped under and lost all consciousness as I had. It was clear she was a lot stronger than me when it came to taking damage as my body proved time and time again how it was still attempting to get used to all the pain it's been put under since I started sailing with the crew—before I met them, the only people I had to deal with in fights where the villagers and anyone that played along with that stupid game of Aaron's, all normal humans who didn't have any strange powers that made them almost come off as superhuman. I could handle a beating—no matter how bad it could possibly get—when it came from someone that didn't have any strange or unusual tricks up their sleeves, but when it came to the Devil Fruit users we would face...my body seemed to just give in to the pain and shut down as if needing to rest so that it could wake up stronger and ready for the next strange thing to come its way.

"Just hang in there, it'll be okay" Luffy assured as he quickly stopped Robin before she could make any attempts to move. "So you're saying that Nami was taken away from here by that God guy? Where?" he asked.

"I don't know..." she weakly replied with another sluggish shake of her head. "Listen carefully…if we don't do something...Skypiea will disappear..."

"What? Disappear?!" Luffy jolted.

"That's right, Eneru plans on getting rid of it completely" I quickly nodded, recalling the blonde's plan.

"My homeland will be completely gone?!" Aisa whimpered.

"Everything will fall..." Robin breathed, chest slowly rising and lowering as if she was struggling. "He said this nation and this sky is unnatural..."

"Said he's going to send it all crashing to the ground..." I bitterly spat, blood slowly beginning to boil the longer I thought back to the nonsense he had been going on about earlier.

"Eneru is defiantly going after the Golden Bell—he won't destroy this place until he finds it" Luffy firmly nodded after Robin and me further explained to him everything that had happened while he was stuck inside the snake.

"Right, and you have to stop him" Robin nodded, pleased to know that the rubber man had been quick to understand what we were telling him. "But you must hurry because there isn't much time left, you can't let Eneru find that bell" she urged him to get going, to leave now and stop the blond in his tracks before he could achieve what he set out to do.

"Don't worry, I know where they are—there are only two voices left on this island, it has to be Nami and Eneru" Aisa suddenly piped up, assuring us all that she knew exactly where Luffy needed to go without the risk of him just blindly running through this island in search of the two.

"Aisa, I need you to take me to them right now" Luffy firmly demanded from the young girl. "Skylar" he suddenly said as he turned to me.

"Yeah?" I asked, tilting my head.

"Stay here—I need you to watch over Robin and the others" I puffed out my chest and firmly nodded in understanding, smiling when I suddenly felt Luffy pat the top of my head in return before he and Aisa finally left. Watching as they got further away, my attention was soon dragged back toward Robin the minute I felt a gentle hand rest itself upon my arm. Looking at her, I followed the way her eyes looked from me and then toward a broken piece of wall as if she was silently asking me to help in moving her over there.

"Sure, I can do that" I nodded without her needing to say a word. I'll admit, it was rather painful having to drag both of our bodies toward the area she wished to go to, but in the end, the feeling of finally being able to rest my back up against something solid felt so nice and pleasant—felt so much better than just lying there on the ground.

"Thank you..." she quietly mumbled, relaxing back against the ruined wall while closing her eyes. I only shook my head, waving off her gratitude as I slumped back and closed my eyes as well. Nothing more was said after that as we now sat there in utter silence with the same thought rushing through our heads...

We needed to find a way to get out of here and fast.
