mmmhff!
I'm brushing my teeth so here's a quick post;......um i really cant talk so i will just post my storY!


////It was dark. Yumi stood alone in a dark room. She looked around her. There she saw everyone. The straw hat crew. They were all lying throughout the room. Dead. She looked down and gasped. There, was Sanji. He had a bullet hole in his chest. Next to him, Michiyo sat half alive. Michiyo looked over at Zoro, who was dead on the floor also. Then her haunting gaze fell on Yumi. Suddenly, her eyes rolled back; she collapsed on the floor. Dead. Yumi looked down. In her trembling hands was a gun. Still warm from a recent firing. Yumi tried to scream, but no noise came from her mouth. She felt dead inside./////

Yumi awoke panting heavily. She quickly turned on the light. “What? Are you ok?” Michiyo asked rubbing her eyes. Yumi immediately threw her arms around her friend. “I’m fine…I think…” she replied quietly. It was then clear of what she had to do.

The next day, Michiyo was heading to the kitchen to talk to Sanji about Yumi. But before she reached the door, something caught her eye. She saw Yumi sneaking into their cabin with a piece of paper. Michiyo followed her. She peaked through a crack in the door. There, Yumi stuck the piece of paper into a pile of Nami’s maps. Michiyo fled before she came back out. Yumi walked up to Nami and asked: “so where are we at the moment?” “Hold on, let me check.” Nami started to walk into the cabin. About a minute later: “guys!! I don’t know how I missed it!” Nami was jumping up and down. “What is it Nami?” Usopp asked. “There’s an island near here that has treasure on it!!!” she had greed symbols in her eyes. “I must have overlooked it somehow!” Michiyo looked at the paper in Nami’s hands. It was the same paper Yumi stuck in her maps! Michiyo was thoroughly confused. “I hope you guys don’t mind making a detour!!” Nami was dancing in circles. “Does she always act like this at the thought of money?” Michiyo whispered to Usopp. “Yeah…pretty much.” Michiyo half smiled and edged towards the kitchen.
“Sanji, do you have a minute?” she shut the door behind her. “Oh, Michiyo-Chan! For you, I have all the time in the world.” Michiyo tried not to roll her eyes. “You have been spending a lot of time with Yumi lately. Have you noticed anything strange?” he thought for a moment. “No. Nothing special. Why do you ask? Is something wrong?” “No, everything’s fine. She just…” just then Yumi walked in. “Oh, Sanji. I came in here to see if you needed any help with lunch. But I see you’re busy.” She turned to leave. “No, no. I was just leaving myself.” With a smile, Michiyo left. “What was that about?” Yumi said, coming up next to him. “Nothing. Just idle chitchat.” There was an awkward silence. Finally Sanji said “You know…you’re pretty lucky to have a friend like her. She really cares about you.” “I knew it! What did she say?!” Yumi looked mad. “I already told you nothing!” Sanji raised his voice. Yumi shook her head and turned to leave. “Wait…” Sanji grabbed her arm. She turned sharply, but then softened up. “I…I’m sorry…I guess I’m just a little off today.” She looked down. Sanji pulled her close to him. She looked up into his eyes. After a long moment of staring into each others eyes, their lips met. Sanji put his hands on her waist. Yumi had her arms around his neck. For an eternity, the two sat there. Finally reality snapped back into place. Yumi jerked back, trying to catch her breath. She whispered “I’m sorry…” and ran out of the kitchen.

Yumi seemed to skip dinner that night, saying she was way too tired and went to bed early. Sanji kept quiet until after everyone had finished eating. Michiyo was talking to Chopper when Sanji said “Michiyo, would you mind helping me with the dishes?” “No, not at all.” She stood up and began to carry the dishes to the sink. When they were alone Sanji put down his dish and faced Michiyo. At first, Michiyo didn’t notice. But he caught her eye. She turned towards him hesitantly. “What’s wrong Sanji?” she asked worried. “I’m worried about Yumi. She’s not herself.” Michiyo looked down. “Do you know something?” Sanji tried to look her in the eye. She still kept quiet.
Meanwhile, in the girls’ cabin: “Where’s Michiyo?” Yumi asked when Nami came in. “She’s helping Sanji with the dishes.” Said Nami casually. Yumi thought for a moment and left for the kitchen.
“Michiyo what aren’t you telling me?” Sanji by now had Michiyo by the arms. “Sanji, I honestly don’t know. She’s been acting strange for the last few days. I was hoping it was going to pass but…” “Did she do something?” Sanji’s grip loosened. Michiyo took a deep breath. Sanji looked her dead in the eye. “She…” just then Yumi walked in. she seemed as surprised as they were. She stared for a long time. Michiyo looked down. Sanji was still holding her arms. She jerked away and left the room without a word. Yumi slightly glared and ran to her room. Sanji sighed and finished the dishes.

Michiyo went to the front of the boat, like she did every night. She was mad. She didn’t know why though. Someone came up behind her. “Zoro...” she turned to see not Zoro, but Sanji. “I’m sorry if I got you in trouble with her. I wish I could just talk to her. To find out what’s wrong. I’m starting to wonder if it’s my fault.” He half smiled. Michiyo smiled back. She put her hand on his shoulder. “Trust me. You didn’t do anything. Whenever she gets like this, which isn’t often, I tend to just let her do her thing. Then, the next thing you know, she’s back to normal.” The worried look on Sanji’s face made her smile. He smiled back. For a moment they both just sat there smiling to each other and to themselves. All of a sudden, they heard someone clear their throat. They turned to see Zoro standing a few feet away. Michiyo realized her had was still on Sanji’s shoulder. She pulled it away and blushed bright red. Sanji said nothing else. He said goodnight to Michiyo and with a nod to Zoro, he headed for bed.
Zoro sighed, irritated, and started to walk towards the back of the boat. “Zoro!” Michiyo called in an angry whisper. She followed him until finally she grabbed his arm, forcing him to stopped and face her. Michiyo looked at him hard and said “Zoro, I don’t know what you think you saw, but it wasn’t…” “And what was it then?” Zoro looked mad. “What’s it to you? Why are you so upset? Ohh!” Michiyo turned around fuming. She went back to the bow of the boat. She heard Zoro come up behind her. He put his hand on her shoulder. She shook it off. After a long awkward silence, Zoro said goodnight and left without another word. Finally Michiyo went to bed.
