The Escape
"I knew you were here..." a voice said behind (Y/N). She turned around, and in the dim blue light of her blazing eye, she saw Charol. "You're going to steal my loot, aren't you?"
'You do make a crap ton of money for a fruit shop owner.'
"I don't sell. I steal."
'From who?'
"You're really curious, don't you think?"
'Not one bit. Now, FROM. WHO?'
"All sorts of people. Rich, Poor, Pirates, Kings, the list goes on and on."
'You're the Rouge, aren't you?'
"You're right. So what if I steal? It's all worth it."
'SOME OF THESE PEOPLE NEED THAT!'
"DO I LOOK LIKE I GIVE A S**T?"
(Y/N) stared. She never cared about any of her victims or hirers, or if anyone dies, but she came to the fact that this woman was a heartless monster.
'This your money? then TAKE IT!' (Y/N) Shouted before grabbing a handful of gold and threw it at her. Charol apparently was a skilled fighter, and dodged it, taking out a knife that looked like it was made to cut fruit, and charged at (Y/N). The Fruit knife and the bowie knife clashed with each other, making a spark that brightened up the room for a split millisecond. both retracted, and clashed at each other again, repeating like this for at least two minutes before Charol Charged again, the knives clashed, but Charol threw a fist at (Y/N), knocking her bowie knife out of her hand and into the pile of gold. She stumbled back, and she could taste blood. She looked up with an aggressive snarl as Charol put her knife away, getting ready for a hand to hand combat fight. Charol threw another one and This one, (Y/N) parried by snatching the fist out of the way. (Y/N) threw a punch at him, followed by a kick in the stomach, and she Roared in pain. A Hard pull at the arm and a kick at the chest both at the same time turned her Roar into a howl. She toppled over and fell to the ground. She looked up just in time to see her opponent throwing a kick into his jaw. She fell down once again.
'I'LL KILL YOU!!!' Charol threw a punch at (Y/N)s face, but was greeted by a even harder fist to the face. She fell on one knee and looked up. 'You're weaker than I thought.' She managed to say before coughing up more blood which stained her shirt. She whipped out her knife out of her pocket, and aimed for (Y/N)s heart. She dodged and retracted her knife from the pile and Charol charged. This time she aimed for (Y/N)s Temple. She dodged and snapped her arm. She howled in pain, and (Y/N) managed to Make a tiny dent in her skull with her free arm before grabbing the back of her hair and throwing her into the pile, and jumped onto her, stabbing her bowie knife into her back. Charol stopped moving. (Y/N) teleported to the far end of the room, and her blaze went out, plunging the room into darkness. (Y/N) Got out a lighter, and brightened up the room slightly. Within the array of the perfectly aligned wooden floor, there was one spare plank, and (Y/N) Lit it on fire, bringing light into the room. The light reached its peak just before the pile of gold, and (Y/N) took out the plank, and went over to the mountain, checking for the thief.
Charol wasn't there.
Everything went black.
At first there were only colours.
Then lines.
Then the haze of a room came to sight.
(Y/N) Looked around. She was in a dim room with a few apples here and there, and a tray with surgical tools, and a mahogany table with a lamp on it. Her head burned as if a meteorite had landed on it. (Y/N) Tried to reach up to her head to rub it, but her limbs were held to an upright surgical bed with rough leather straps.
"What the? H-How?"
'Oh good, you're awake.' a voice came from the other side of the door. It opened, and Charol stepped inside, smirking. 'Not so tough now, are ya?'
"LET ME OUT!" (Y/N) screamed, rage boiling up.
'You're expecting me to let you out?' You're really a simple minded idiot, I have to admit.'
"DON'T YOU DARE CALL ME THAT, AS SOON AS I GET FREE FROM THIS THING, I'M GONNA SEND YOU TO HELL!"
'Now now, calm down there Angel-'
"DON'T 'CALM DOWN' ME, I'M GONNA FREAKING RIP YOUR HEAD OFF."
'Oh really? How are you going to rip my head off if you don't have any hands?'
(Y/N) looked at her hands. Both were fine and undecapitated. Charol giggled as she approached (Y/N) with a sinister look on her face. 'It'll be no fun removing your hands when you are asleep, and not being able to feel anything, Doing it when You're awake is much more fun. I'm going to enjoy your screams.'
"BACK OFF YOU B**CH!" (Y/N) Screamed, trying to break free. Charol responded with getting an actual saw that looked like it belonged to a doctor from a nearby tray filled with them, and turned a nearby lamp on. The room was dark, and she needed light to be able to see what she was doing.
Seconds before the saw penetrated her wrist, she stopped.
'I SAID, IS ANYONE THERE?' A voice screamed from the shop.
'Damnit, you're lucky. I'll be back.' Charol growled, and lowered the bed until it was parallel to the ground, unplugged the lamp and exited the room. (Y/N) Blinked. She had to thank that person for saving her hand. She tried to break free from the straps, but it was no use. "Damnit, this thing's a pain." She looked around for anything she could use. Nothing much, just the tray of surgical tools that were a bit far away for (Y/N) wrist to reach. She tried to find another way. That was when she remembered the lamp, Charol was stupid enough to put the plug right beside her wrist. She grabbed it, and threw it to a knife that looked like that it could cut through steel. It missed by a few centimetres, and (Y/N) Cursed. She tried again, and the plug landed just over the handle of the knife. (Y/N) Smirked, and pulled it over to her.
"So, just those apples sir?" Charols muffled voice said from behind the wall.
'Yeah, but do you have any pomegranate, coconut and Feijoas?'
"Right, hardly anyone buys them, so they're in the storage room." (Y/N) heard a door open and close, and kept on getting the knife, until it was right next to her hand, and she grabbed it, cutting the leather straps. It was only half way when the door to the storage room opened again, and Charol gave the man what he asked. (Y/N) Started panicking and cut faster, and within seconds, the strap snapped, and (Y/N) Rewarded herself with a smile and relief surging through her veins. One by one, she untied the rest of the straps, and got a knife, waiting for Charol to enter the room. 'Great, that would be seven beli please.'
Her heart raised to her throat, and she nearly puked it out. How do people even puke their heart out, is that even possible? In that case, (Y/N)'s supernatural.
The soft muffled sound of a bell ringing told her that the customer was outside, and the moment Charol opened the door, (Y/N) thrusted her knife at her, and it stabbed into her heart.
'What have you done...' Charol fell to the ground, while she threw her knife at (Y/N) Shoulder. Pain echoed through her arm as she took it out, but still didn't scream. A nearby apple turned into a chocolate brown gourd shaped fruit, showing that Charol was finally dead. (Y/N) Focused on the ships deck, and leaped, teleporting onto the ships deck. She landed right in front of Nami, and she shrieked.
"JESUS, YOU SCARED THE LIVING HELL OUT OF ME!"
'Sorry. Can I make up for it by giving you back your loot?'
"Wait what?"
Timeskip brought to you by secretly finishing this in science.
"OH MY GOD, THANK YOU SO MUCH!" Nami screamed as she gave (Y/N) a bear hug so tight that she couldn't breathe. (Y/N) had lead the crew to the mountain of gold, and Nami was screaming her head off when she saw all of it.
'You're actually pretty talented to be honest.' Luffy said, ruffling her hair.
'Yeah, I agree.' Zoro added, picking up some loot. 'I'm gonna buy some booze, if anyone needs me.
'By the way...' Ayane said, looking behind her. 'As thanks for saving this town, Would you all like to have lunch over at the Inn?'
'YES PLEASE!' Luffy screamed, excited so much, that he almost jumped out of his skin. "I'm starving!"
"Sounds good." Nami added, picking up as much loot as possible.
'Yeah, I'm in.' Usopp said, rubbing his stomach.
'Should I help?' Sanji said, looking at Ayane.
'Yeah, You can help. Well, Back to the inn!'
Timeskip brought to you by Sleeping my ass off.
Luffy laid back in his chair, stuffed to the brim with food. The collaboration between the two chefs tasted like heaven. Ayanes Steamed snapper, meatloaf, lemon chicken and steak accompanied with Sanjis stir-fry, Lobster, squid and vegetables was nothing like the Straw Hats have tasted before.
"This tastes just like the royal food I have back in Alabasta.' Vivi said, gulping down some tangerine juice afterwards. 'Ayane, Sanji, You're both amazing! I'm stuffed!"
'This is why this Inn was ranked the number one in Dawns Gate. Amazing food, Fantastic service, Cheap prices, I'm only five hundred dollars from having enough money to upgrade to a actual hotel.'
"You run this all by yourself?"
'Well, My father was the innkeeper before me, and when I met (Y/N) and her brother, they helped us take care of this place. Ever since my dad passed away, I've been the manager, (Y/N) my assistant. When (Y/N) Passes by, she volunteers help me with some things, with a warm bed and a place to stay as payment.'
'Oh, Well, do you need help?' Sanji asked, approaching closer to Ayane, holding another plate of his appetising food.
'Nah, kinda used to all this by now.'
'By the way Ayane, Can you leave us alone for a second? We have something important to discuss with (Y/N).' Luffy said.
(Y/N)'s heart lurched. Are they going to turn me in?
'Yeah, but if you are planning to kill her or turn her in, I'm gonna murder you.'
Thank god that I have Ayane backing me up.
"Don't worry, it's not."
'Fine. But I'll be watching.' Ayane said as she turned around and into the kitchen.
"(Y/N)," Luffy began.
"Will you join our pirate crew?"
