Luffy and I barge into the infirmary, out of breath. I look around the room, eyes wide in panic and see all the Strawhats and Law, who leans over two beds.

"What happened?" I immediately ask.

Nami sighs. "The same thing happened to both Ussop and Chopper."

"But Chopper was found unconscious in Castle E." Sanji adds, lighting up a cigarette.

Robin looks over at the two boys. "They'll die at this rate." She deadpans while the rest of us sweat drop at her bluntness.

I walk over to the two who are tucked into the infirmary beds, breathing ragged. But Ussop's breathing is slower than Chopper's, causing me to worry. I glance at Law. "Will you be able to save them?"

"I'll try." He says, gruffly.

"Traffy." Luffy says in a dark tone, his eyes hooded. "You have to."

Law sighs. "I'll do my best."

I look at the two dying boys once more and make up my mind. "Leave the room." I command in a monotonous voice.

"What?!" All of them exclaim.

"All of you, leave. Including you Law." I say firmly, my voice cold as ice.

"But-" He begins.

"Leave." I say more forcefully this time. They hesitate for a moment but obey. Law gives me a confused look on his way out and I sigh. "Don't worry." I tell him.

He nods and closes the door behind him. I sigh again, facing Ussop and Chopper once more.

Time to get to work.

~

I open the door less than five minutes later. Everyone looks at me surprised, and I smile brightly. "Come in!" I say, cheerfully.

All of them look at each other nervously but Luffy barges in, almost knocking me off my feet and they follow. But they stop in shock when they see the two boys who were dying not even a few minutes earlier, sitting up in bed and laughing.

"This is weird." Chopper remarks, moving his arms around.

"Yeah." Ussop agrees. "I can't feel any pain. It's like I wasn't even hurt at all."

Law comes up beside me as everyone fusses over the two. "How'd you do it?" He asks, genuinely puzzled.

I smile, turning around to leave. "There's a lot you don't know about me."

"Wait." He says, grasping my wrist.

I turn and raise an eyebrow. "Yes?"

His grey eyes look into mine. "Who exactly are you? You look familiar."

I smirk. "You'll have to find out." With that, I leave him there complete and utterly dumbstruck.

~

My door slams open. I open my eyes a bit tiredly, rolling in bed, my back facing the door. I start to drift off once more.

I dimly hear voices screaming and yelling until I feel weight on me. My eyes fly open and I look up to see a grinning Ussop by my bed with an ecstatic Chopper sitting on me.

"What the hell?!" I screech, overly cranky.

"Hi, (Y/N)!" Chopper says happily.

I sit up in bed, Chopper landing on my lap. I rub my eyes tiredly and look at the clock.

5:16 am.

My eyes look back at the two, furious. "Why did you wake me up at this hour?" I say in a calm voice, my face is anything but.

Ussop's legs start to shake. "Um we uh wanted to bring you to the uh carnival today?" It comes out more like a question.

"And why is that?" I demand, still drowsy.

"Because you saved us!" Chopper says, smiling up at me. "And there's cotton candy!" He screams in jubilation.

My mind slowly starts to process what's happening. "Carnival?" I ask. "Where'd the carnival come from?"

"Principle Doflamingo got it set up for us here today." Ussop replies, calming down now that I seem to be at ease. "It'll be here for a day."

My face scrunches up in confusion. "But why did he set up a carnival here on campus?"

"He wants everyone to ignore the fact that both Chopper and Ussop almost died." Says a voice from the door.

Robin stands there, smiling with a book in her hands. "Robin!" Chopper squeals and runs over to her. "Can we go get some cotton candy now?"

"Let's go then." She says, taking his hand. They both leave.

I get up stretching, and rubbing my eyes still tired. I grin at Ussop. "Any roller coasters?"

He gulps. "Yeah but they didn't set it up too well. A guy fell off just a while ago. He survived though."

My eyes brighten. "So it's dangerous?!"

"You could say that. Luffy's in line at the moment waiting for you."

I bolt to the bathroom to get ready.

This is so going to be fun!

~

My safety belt breaks off as we start to descend down. I scream and clutch on to the bars, laughing, though I could be thrown off at any moment. I dangle down as the roller coaster goes through a few upside down loops.

Man this is fun!

Luffy looks at me, his eyes widening. "I want to do that too!"

Abruptly he yanks and breaks off his safety belt and holds on to the bars at the front like me. He shouts in laughter and happiness and I can't help but do the same. Sadly though, the ride has to end eventually.

I get off the roller coaster, a crazed look in my eyes. I smile at Luffy who laughs.

"Again!" He shouts, grabbing my hand.

I let out a small laugh and follow him into the line once more. But I stop when I hear a scream. Both of us whip our heads toward the noise and see another person on the floor, covered in blood.

I rush over to him and notice that it's Kid. A crowd starts to form and I push my way through, falling in my knees beside him.

He looks at me through half closed eyes, at the verge of passing out. This poison is one of the deadliest and makes you lose control of your muscles, making the victim unable to move as they slowly die.

I grit my teeth. "Not you too." I pick him up deftly, going towards the infirmary for the second time in less than twenty four hours.

~

I'm at the verge of screaming. Chopper and Ussop have been bothering me nonstop the past week because I saved their lives.

"Do you want to go to the Arcademia?" Ussop asks.

"No."

"Can you teach me how you saved me and Ussop?" Choppers squeaky voice questions innocently.

"No."

"Can you—" Ussop starts.

I scream in frustration and and take off, sprinting far away from them. They chase after me but I immediately slam open the closest door next to me as I turn around the corner, out of sight. I close the door quickly, not bothering to look around the room.

I stay standing there, waiting for the two to pass by when someone clears their throat. I look up, annoyed and see two people.

Luffy.

Law.

"You two have to help me." I whisper, glancing at the door.

"Why?" Law asks, raising an eyebrow.

"Because Ussop and Chopper won't leave me alone." I say, frustrated.

"Really?" Luffy asks, tilting his head to the side. "Why?"

"Because I saved their lives." I say, crossing my arms.

Suddenly a knock comes at the door and my eyes widen when I hear Ussop's voice.

"Hide me!" I whisper in panic.

Law points over his shoulder towards the closet with a bored expression. I shake my head. I'll be found easily. I take a risk and dive under one of the beds.

I hear Luffy open the door. "Ussop! Chopper!" He says, a smile in his voice.

"Have you seen, (Y/N)?" Chopper asks.

Luffy laughs. "She's under Law's bed." He says, bluntly.

I roll out, quickly catching everyone off guard. I scream once more and pass by Luffy who's in the middle of picking his nose with his pinky and a startled Ussop and Chopper. I dash out into the hallway and down the corridor. This time, I run out of Castle A and into another random dorm.

My eyes dart around the hallway as I hear Ussop and Chopper continuing to pursue me. Finally, I run into one of the rooms, trying to catch my breath. I look around and notice that it's a girls room. Robin looks up from a desk, staring at me curiously.

"What's wrong?"

"Chopper. Ussop. Chasing." I gasp, still out of breath.

"Need help?"

"Yes."

She giggles a bit. "I have an idea."

~

I hear a scream and feet running over to where I lay. Sticky blood coats my skin and a dull headache starts to form once more because of the noise.

"(Y/N)!" A tiny voice screeches. "Ussop get my bag!" Chopper demands, frantically.

"Wait, Chopper." I hear Robin say. "Bring her to the infirmary."

"Robin—" Ussop gets cut off.

"They have more supplies there." She answers in a firm voice.

Chopper is silent for a moment but then agrees and I feel Ussop pick me up. I keep my eyes closed and let out a fake whimper of pain.

"Let's hurry." Ussop says as we make our way to the Main Castle. I hear the shuffling of feet and gasps from other people and I try to suppress my smile.

"Another victim." I hear a bystander whisper.

"Isn't that the crazy girl?" Another says.

"The one who gets into fights with Eustass Kid from the Worst Generation?"

"I heard that they're roommates. Honestly I'm surprised both of them are still alive."

"And isn't she friends with the Strawhats?"

"Yeah. She's tough, dude. You should've seen her in Swordplay with Mihawk."

"Dude, that was awesome! And she went up against Roronoa Zoro too!"

"None of them won I heard. It was a draw. But at the end she got up and left as if nothing happened! And she was beaten up pretty bad too. Same with Zoro."

"Either way though, she's tough man. I actually heard that she's from the Worst Generation."

"Really?!" A voice exclaims in shock.

"I don't know if it's true or not but I have a feeling the rumor is real." Someone else mutters.

Well this is fun.

Finally we reach our destination.

"Law?" I hear Chopper ask. "Why're you here?"

"Bring her here." Laws deep voice, commands. "I've been having patients with the same wounds lately. But (Y/N) is always the one who saves them."

I feel myself being laid down on one of the stiff infirmary beds. "You can leave now, Chopper-ya." Law says.

"But—" Chopper starts, reluctant.

"It's for the best. All of you leave. Thank you for your help." The door clicks closed and I open my eyes. I sit up, smiling at Law who has his normal frown etched in his features.

"Thanks." I say, standing up.

"No problem. And what's that red stuff on you anyway?" He says in disgust.

I look at him. "Ketchup." I scrunch my nose. "It smells awful."

I make my way to the infirmary bathroom where Robin left me my extra set of clothes.

Mission accomplished.

~

"Thank you for saving my life." I say to Ussop and Chopper.

"You're welcome, (Y/N)!" Ussop says at the same time that Chopper starts throwing profanities at me even though he's obviously pleased.

I smile, turning away from them to walk out the cafeteria. "I won't be joining you all for dinner tonight. Sorry but Law says I have to rest."

"You should." Chopper says, looking at my false bandages worriedly.

I look at the two sadly. "I'll see you guys at breakfast tomorrow then."

I leave the room, a smile on my face. But I falter when I crash into someone. Immediately, I look up and glare at the person.

Kid.

With red hair and not green. He had dyed it back the same day I changed it much to my displeasure, though red hair does suit him. "Watch where your going." I seethe.

"Are you bipolar, little girl?" He scowls.

I cross my arms. "No." I state, flatly.

"Then how come you were just smiling and now you look like you want to kill me?"

I sigh, frustrated, my headache from earlier growing. "Because I do want to kill you." I snap.

"Then why did you save me?" He asks.

"Because you were dying." I say, simply. "And because I want to be the one to kill you."

"How exactly did you save me?"

A tick mark appears on my head.

How many times are people going to ask me?!

"You don't know me." I say, defensively. "There's a lot more to me than you may think."

He rolls his eyes. "Whatever. I'm going to kill you soon anyway."

"Not a chance." I huff. "You'll be dead before you can even try."

"And by who will I be killed?" He asks with mock curiosity.

"By me." I say, smugly.

"Yeah right." He snorts.

I grin at him. "We'll see, Kiddie."

"See you dead? Okay, little girl." He smirks.

This time, I roll my eyes. "In time we'll know which one of us is stronger." With that I turn and leave, a smile on my face.

I can't wait to prove him wrong.
