“Yumi, Yumi wake up!” Yumi opened her eyes to see Michiyo shaking her violently. “Ohhh, not another endless day at sea!” Yumi was usually a good navigator, but a large storm a few days earlier destroyed their maps and compass. Not to mention their food supplies. All they had was a small boat, no larger than a dingy, and yet here they were on the grand line. “We won’t be starving for much longer, look!” Michiyo pointed to a boat a couple of yards ahead. Yumi smiled. She looked at Michiyo for a long time. Michiyo never seemed to panic, she hardly ever lost her patience, and she never even showed signs of hunger, even after a week without food. She was a survivor. Yumi was strong too. Yet she had a hot temper but learned to control it. She was a good cook and was a good fighter. Michiyo fought, but did not enjoy it. Yumi on the other hand, fought on a regular basis. Not for enjoyment though. More on that later. Anyway, the two friends would soon get the help they needed. That is, if the people on that ship were friendly.
As they got closer to the boat, they could here voices. They could only make out a little of what they were saying. They both waved frantically for the vessel to come help them. “Help! Over here!” they continued to wave. They were close enough now that they could see the ships flag. Yumi stopped waving. “That flag…” she said quietly. “What?” Michiyo asked absentmindedly. “Oh it’s nothing.” She continued to wave.
As the boat approached them, a cute kid with a straw hat saw them and waved. Yumi’s mouth hung open in disbelief. But she quickly hid her shock with a smile. “Hey! Do you guys need help?!” he yelled. “Well, if you have some food to spare. And maybe a ride to the nearest village?” Michiyo called back. He smiled big and lowered a rope ladder. “Luffy! What have I said about talking to strangers?! Especially on these waters!” A red headed girl came up next to him. “Can we help you?” she said in an icy tone. “We just need some food. Please.” Yumi begged. All of a sudden a really cute blonde appears. His eyes turn to hearts. “Oh lucky day! That two beautiful mermaids such as these come searching for help!” “Shut up Sanji.” The redhead said. “Come on up!” Luffy shouted.
When they reach the top, they explain that they lost everything in a storm and how they haven’t eaten in days. Hearing this, Sanji said “Oh! Such beautiful ladies as yourselves should never go without food!” and he immediately rushed to the kitchen.
You soon met the rest of the crew. The redhead was Nami; there was also a kid with a long nose named Usopp. Then there was a little reindeer named Chopper. The two girls introduced themselves. Sanji came and announced that lunch was served. Everyone headed to the kitchen. Michiyo was thanking them when she bumped into someone. She looked up to see a guy with green hair. He seemed as surprised as Michiyo. Luffy introduced him as Zoro. She blushed for charging right into him and took a seat. Everyone sat down as Sanji put the finishing touches in his soup. Yumi watched as he cooked and bit her lip. “Something wrong my love?” Sanji asked. “Well, if you added a small pinch of wasabi, it might add a little extra kick.” Everyone in the room got quiet. For a split second, Sanji looked annoyed to have someone give him cooking tips. But he thought for a minute and added some wasabi. He lifted the spoon up to his mouth and took a sip. He blinked a few times in surprise. He finally spoke up. “This…is very good. Where did you learn…?” “My family owned a small restaurant. I picked up a few things working there.” Yumi interrupted. Sanji smiled.
Everyone complemented on the soup that evening. “Didn’t you guys say that you needed a ride to the next town?” Luffy asked, wolfing down his fifth bowl. Michiyo thought a moment then said “Um, yea. You guys have been such a great help already. We really don’t need….” “Yes…we desperately need a ride to town.” Yumi interrupted. “But the nearest town is at least a week away.” Michiyo argued. “We don’t mind!” Luffy said excitedly. “Then it’s settled!” Nami said with a smile. Michiyo smiled halfheartedly, while Yumi smiled absentmindedly.

Nami made a place for the girls to sleep in her room. After securing their boat to Luffy’s, every one headed for bed. Everyone except Michiyo. She stood at the bow of the boat, staring at the stars. It wasn’t long though, before she got the feeling she was being watched. She turned around to see Zoro standing behind her. She looked surprised for a moment and there was an awkward science. “Not much of a sleeper?” he asked coming up next to her. She shook her head. “I just love the stars.” The wind picked up and blew her hair back. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. All of a sudden she got a weird feeling. She opened her eyes to see Zoro staring intently at her. She cleared her throat and said: “Well it’s getting late. I better get going.” Without another word she walked to her cabin. “Night.” he said casually. But, she could feel Zoro’s stare follow her the whole way.
The next morning, Michiyo awoke to Nami and Yumi staring down at her. “What’s going on?” she asked with a yawn. “You were up late.” Nami said with a sly smile. “I saw you and Zoro outside last night.” Yumi had the same smug look. “What are you talking about?” Michiyo rubbed her eyes. “Don’t play dumb!” they shouted at the same time. “Ok. I did talk to Zoro last night. So what? You guys are so immature.” Michiyo got up and changed. “Sure!!” the other two said laughing. Michiyo gave them a glare that said ‘if you value your lives, you will shut up!’.
After they got dressed, they headed to the kitchen for breakfast. “Mmm! something smells good!” Yumi said as she sat down. “She never compliments anyone’s cooking…except her own.” Michiyo whispered to Nami. Nami giggled and sat down. Michiyo then seated herself. Almost if on queue, Luffy charged in the room and whipped himself up a huge plate of bacon. Usopp and Chopper soon joined in. Finally Zoro came in yawning and took the last seat next to Michiyo. Nami and Yumi were about to make a comment. But Michiyo kicked them from under the table. As they finished their breakfast, Luffy started to leave with something under his shirt. “Boy am I full!” he said as he headed for the door. “You’re never full! Get back here with my bacon!” Sanji shouted as he followed Luffy out the door. With a laugh, Nami got up and left. Then Chopper and Usopp. “You coming?” Michiyo asked Yumi as she stood up. “In just a minute.” She said as she carried her dish to the sink. Zoro finished off his coffee and got up to leave.
Yumi began to wash the dishes when she heard someone come in. “Retarded Luffy! Eats more than a rabbit!” Sanji looked surprised to see Yumi doing dishes and rushed over. “Such a beautiful lady should not be ruining such perfect hands, doing the menial task of dish washing!” “No, No. I got it.” Sanji flicked his cigarette in the trash and began to wash. “That stuff will kill ya.” Yumi said smiling. “Who are you, my mother?” he said with a smirk. “No, I’m your friend.” Yumi smiled again. Sanji reached down to grab a dish but instead he accidentally grabbed Yumi’s hand. She blushed bright red, and surprisingly so did Sanji! They both sat there for a moment looking into each others eyes. Slowly, Sanji’s Face got closer to Yumi’s. But, Yumi did the same! Just when there lips were about to touch…the door flung open. “Oh! We didn’t interrupt anything did we?” Michiyo tried to hide a smile, while Zoro cleared his throat. Yumi blushed and Sanji looked ticked. “I was just about to ask you and Zoro the same!” Yumi shouted back. Michiyo blushed from anger and said: “here’s your bandana. I thought I saw it in here.” She picked up Zoro’s Black bandana, handed it to him and left with out a word. “Michiyo!” Yumi followed her out the door. Zoro shook his head and smirked. “Shut up!” Sanji went back to washing dishes. “I didn’t say anything.” Zoro said as he pulled up a seat. Sanji kept quiet. Finally Zoro said “I’ve never seen you like this. You’ve been with other girls before. What makes Yumi so special?” Sanji sighed and said “I honestly don’t know. She seems…so different.” Then he smirked and said “What about you?” “What do you mean ‘what about you’?” Zoro looked up. “Oh nothing, sword boy…*cough* lover boy *cough*” Sanji almost broke out laughing. “Bring it crap cooker!!!” Zoro said getting up. “That’s my insult you under cooked slab of meet!!” Sanji threw down the plate in his hand, shattering it. All of a sudden Nami came in. “What’s going on in here?!?!” Zoro and Sanji immediately stopped and said “Nothing…” at the same time. Sanji went back to washing, while Zoro turned abruptly and went out the door. Nami sighed and shook her head.

“Michiyo! Why are you so ticked at me? I should be the one who’s mad.” Yumi followed Michiyo into their cabin. “I’m…I’m not mad! You just embarrassed the crud outta me!!” surprisingly, Michiyo was smiling. “Well, I was more embarrassed than you!” Michiyo continued to smile. “What’s your problem!!??” Yumi was turning red in the face. “So, what were we interrupting?” Yumi smiled then blushed bright red. Michiyo laughed and let it go. They both refused to bring the subject up again.
