章節 3: Laugh or cry- there is no answer.
*POV Laboon
So painful... How long must I await you to come back?
I was lost without family and you accepted me.
You sailed, I swam. You played your music, I sang.
My body hurts. My memories hurt... My soul hurts as it yearns to have a party with you one more time.
The sea is unchanging, the mountain is unrelenting... But we all grow older... How long until old man Crocus also disappears?
No! Painful! Painful! Memories and thinking hurts too much!
Will have to ram against mountain to get rid of that pain!
... Huh?
Who is calling me?
Wait.... WAIT! THAT SONG!!!
*My eye looks down at the lighthouse.*
A tiny man... With a tiny woman stuck to him... playing the violin...
"Yo-hohoho, yo-hohoho~!"
The tiny man! He is singing! He is singing HIS SONG! OUR SONG!
...
*POV Lynx
"Binkusu no sake wo, todoke ni yuku yo!"
When he heard the intro with the violin he looked over, when I started to sing yo-hohoho, he started to wiggle to the rhythm but now!
The poor fella started to humm with his deep bass to accompany my singing.
By the start of the second chorus I point at the restof the strawhats and Crocus and start singing louder while hopping around them and nodding.
Luffy is the first one to join since he sung it a lot with Shanks. One by one the others join us with Braum humming like Laboon since he also doesn't know the lyrics.
And we started a wild singing party by the lighthouse.
...
*POV Laboon
They are playing. Singing. And dancing!
It's not the same. But no party is the same! No crew is the same!
... THANK YOU!
...
*POV Lynx
We are all busy enjoying ourselves with the music when in the corner of my eyes, I see Laboons eyes full of tears while he continues to hum with the melody.
"OK LABOON ONE MORE TIME, EVERYBODY!
YO-HOHOHO, YO-HOHOHO~
YO-HOHOHO, YO-HOHOHO~
YO-HOHOHO, YO-HOHOHO~
YO-HOHOHO, YO-HOHOHO~!"
With the end of the song, Laboons tears break out like the second reverse mountain stream with him looking at us happily.
"Hey Laboon! You partied with us, so now you are also part of the Strawhat pirates! Don't be sad anymore about your previous friends! We will travel the Grandline and come back to you and party once more!"
"BWAAAAAA!" Laboon lets out his sound into the sky.
"Captain, would you do the honors of painting our flag on our newest member?" Lynx
Luffy just grins while grabbing all the paint he could find.
...
"Tada!" Luffy
Most of our members don't know what to say besides me.
"Nice! The skull actually looks like a skull!"
"Thanks Lynx!"
The others turn towards me.
"Mind explaining what you mean?" Usopp
"Well the original drawing would suck even more. So I gotta praise for not screwing it up totally."
Everyone facepalms at my comment.
"Ok, right! That is our contract! So don't go ramming into stuff and erasing it before we get back!" Luffy declares to Laboon who nods.
Walking forward I pass Luffy and turn back.
"Luffy! I have something important to tell Laboon! But it's spoilers so everybody cover your ears!" Lynx
"You heard the man! If anyone of you listens, I will personally beat the crap out of you!" Luffy
As per captains orders they all covered their ears and turned around.
With a smile I turn to Laboon.
"Laboon! I have some good news! One man of the Rumbar pirates is alive-Brook! He is trapped, but we will rescue him and bring him with us the next time we come, so you better behave yourself!" Lynx
When you think he cried out an ocean, he suddenly starts again, this time however he continues to make happy squeaky noises.
Smiling I go back to the others and take their hands off their heads.
"He really liked the news! Listen to him."
Hearing the noise Crocus almost breaks his neck when he looks at me.
"So you met one of the men, boy? I will recognize that squeaking anytime, even after so many years." Crocus
Because I can't just tell every random good characters what I know, I just decide to agree.
"Yes, I did. Now can you write your denden mushi number? So when we meet him again, we can give you and Laboon a call?" Lynx
"Of course! Thank you!" He runs inside and comes back with paper with a number on it.
I grab the number and store it.
And with the fire on our asses gone, we all start doing our own stuff.
Zoro went to sleep, Sanji went to cook with that elephant tuna, Usopp went to continue repairs on Merry while complaining about not being a shipwright and that I should do it, Braum went for a swim, since it's too hot for him. At least in comparisson to Freljord, his home.
Nami is playing with the compass and the log pose while I have the sleeping koala Vivi on my back as I took apart my violin, to redo her properly, unlike before when I rushed it for Laboon.
"So Lynx, how do you navigate with this log pose?" Nami
"Crocus, can you explain it to her? I know it, but you can give her a more in depth explanation than me." Lynx
"Sure, after you helped so much!"
Crocus explains the whole thing while I continue to work on the violin. But then I head Nami scream.
Looking over, I see Nami with Luffy lying on his face on one side and Sanji in a kicking pose on the other side of Nami.
Standing up, I go look up what happened... I see a broken log pose.
"... Sink'em..." Lynx
"With pleasure~ GO SOAK YOUR HEADS YOU RETARDS!" Nami becomes a monster and kicks the two into the ocean.
She then collapses to the floor.
"We are doomed... I only bought one log pose..."
Remembering I have Vivi around my neck, I check her wrists ad find a log pose. Carefully taking it off, I poke Nami's head.
"Hey, we still got the pose of this girl." Lynx
Nami looks up with and empty gaze, until it stops on the intact log pose. With shaking hands she carefully takes it, puts it one before jumping at me.
"I LOVE YOU LYNX! YOU JUST SAVED US!"
She kisses my cheek and hugs me for a bit more before goint to check the maps again.
"... What is with girls kissing me today out of nowhere?!" I yell to myself before goint to sit back and work.
'Calm down! Nami doesn't think anything that way! She was just happy for the log pose. But Vivi on the other hand... She broke character right there when I saved her and still hasn't returned. I hope she wakes up at least a bit sane...' Lynx
I raise my head looking around as I hear in the distance an explosion.
"Meh, was nothing important if I can't remember." And I continue to work.
Few minutes later Luffy, Sanji and mr 9 come out soaked from the sea.
"Hey. I have a request. Me and ms. Wednesday need to return to Whisky peak."Mr 9
"Whisky peak? What's that?" Luffy
"It's the name of our town." Mr 9
"You lost your ship and now you want us to take you home?" Sanji
"Well, I know for one that until this girl functions properly again, I'm not giving her to anyone. And I don't trust you really." I point at Vivi on my back.
"And why should we help you? Mr 9?" Nami
"I can't tell you! I just want us to go home! I promise we will repay you!" He growls on his knees begging.
Nami leans over to me.
"You know something about this?" Nami
"Yep." I just nod.
"Any danger?"
"There is always danger in the Grandline. But with these guys? Pfft! They only have numbers! Sanji, Luffy and Zoro can shitstomp them easy peasy." Lynx
Nami proceeds to tease mr 9.
"It's okay, you can come with us." Luffy
...
Nami set the log pose towards Whisky peak as we bid our goodbyes.
"Bye Crocus! Bye Laboon!" Most of us.
"Bye weird flowerman! Goodbye whale!" Luffy
Laboon sounds with a deep and strong voice sending us off.
"Don't worry Laboon. I will make sure we keep the promise. Definitely!" I whisper to myself, shedding a tear as we leave.
...
Currently Luffy is making a snowman, Usopp a snow statue and Braum is making snow angels.
"Aaaaah~ There is nothing better than some snow in the morning, no?" Braum
"Tell that to someone who isn't shoveling it...Nami-swam~ How long should I keep shoveling, love?" Sanji
"Keep going until it stops." Nami
"Hey, doesn't this ship have a heater?" Mr 9
"SHUT UP, YOU ARE NOT A GUEST HERE! GO OUT THERE AND HELP SHOVEL THE SNOW!" Nami yells.
"Sheesh, miss Wednesday is out there, so what does it matter if I'm not?"
"SHE ISN'T DOING ANYTHING! SHE IS STILL HOLDING ONTO LYNX LIKE A BABY KOALA AS HE SHOVELS THE SNOW!" Nami has lost the patience with this guy.
"NAMI! Keep checking the log pose! I don't want to return later!" I yell from the outside.
"Brh! God, I hate cold weather! Hey Braum, how do you keep building cold resistance like yours?" Lynx
"Drink lots of milk! It's my favorite!" Braum sits up and gives a thumbs up.
"... What do your cows have in their milk?! Anti-freeze?" Lynx
"What's anti-freeze?" Braum looks confused.
"Posionous water that keeps any liquid from freezing." I decided to make it easy to understand.
"Hooh? Maybe they do! Hahahah Gragas, your poison alcohol has nothing on my milk!" Braum starts to laugh towards his missing compariot while slapping his knee.
"... I wanna try that milk now." Zoro cups his chin while thinking about a milk stronger than alcohol.
I facepalm so hard the slap echoes over the whole ship.
"Brh! It's so cold here... I need to go." Vivi
I look back and finally see the somewhat lucid Vivi rubbing her eyes.
"Morning princess! Have a good sleep?" Lynx
"Wha! Who are you?! How do you know of me?!" Vivi tries to jump off me, but she is stuck in my wintercoat behind me.
"Aww calm down! It was quite how you called me 'my prince~'." Lynx
"Oh was that all?" She slips out of the coat a bit, only for the cold being strong and slipping back to the soirce of warmth- me.
"Well when I saved you from the water and got the water out of your lungs, you did almost kill me." I smile at her.
"Why are you smiling then?" Vivi tilts her head.
"Because the way you would have killed me was from suffocation by smooching." I start to giggle.
Vivi hudes her head inside the coat, but I feel steam rising.
"You don't have to blush that much! C'mon I'll bring you inside for now."
"Change route guys to hard starboard! We changed directions again." Nami
I pass her by while entering. Vivi drops out of my coat before rushing inside until she finally found a toilet.
Mr 9 gives me a look.
"What are you looking at me for? She hasn't been to the toilet since she was incapacitated... I'm surprised she was able to hold out for more than a day." I shrug my shoulders as Nami enters.
"So miss Wednesday has awoken? That's good! At least you can do more stuff now." Nami grins at me.
"Well it was kinda nice as she was warm and it doubled as strength training. Well now I can start training hard again, so that I'm not the weakest here." I start stretching my sore bavk, as I get a few pops from it.
"Hey Mr 9, who are these people? What happened to the whale?" Vivi is back in her act... Or should be.
While talking to mr 9 sge just walks towards me and again climbs up inside my coat as if its her spot.
"..." The silence of confusion enters the room.
"Miss Wednesday? Are you okay?" mr 9
"Yes. Why do you ask?" Vivi
"Because you are cuddling to that pirate again..." mr 9
Vivi glances at my face, before another poof of steam went from her head.
"W-w-w-why did I go back h-here? No! Why don't I want to let go?!" Vivi looks like she is trying to force herself to leave my coat again.
As she slowly slides down, I smack hee ass slightly with my palm, making her jump up with a yelp again.
"Just stay there. I got used to it, so it feels empty when you leave." Lynx
She stares at me angrily before looking away in defience... even when she doesn't even try to leave now.
"Well anyway, you two failed your mission and now we are taking you to Whisky peak for an reward." Nami rolls her eyes after staring at me.
"Damn pervert, so you like those kinds of skanks? I'll have some fun with you later." She whispers to herself.
"Oh... Thank you." Vivi feels a threat from the orange hair and she squeezes he grip tighter unknowingly.
"I know it's cold, but can you loosen your grip a bit? I'm don't make squeaky sound like a squeaky toy." Lynx
"Ah, sorry." Vivi
"STOP FLIRTING AND GET YOU ASSES OUT TO HELP. YOU TOO!" Nami kicks me with Vivi on my back and mr 9 out.
We proceed to enter the 'Danger Zone!'
The weather keepy changing with us running everywhere. Braum was exceptionally good by lowering his shield to protect the hull from ice berg collisions and firing cold wind at the sails so they didn't ignite.
After a few hours of that torture, we enter the calm waters of the first stable island climate.
Everyone is on the floor, exhausted with Braum sleeping already.
"Mmm, wow that was a peaceful nap!" Zoro stretches.
"Hey, I know it's a beautiful day, but shouldn't you guys be working? I hope we are sailing i the right direction." Zoro
Just before he raches the stairs he is squashed under Braums shield.
"ZORO YOU SLEEPING BASTARD! NEXT TIME I'M SHOVING YOUR SWORDS UP YOUR ASS IF YOU DON'T WAKE UP!" I, the weakling somehow picked up the giant door shield before I threw it at him. Squishing him under.
"WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM?!" Zoro yells back at me.
But then a shadow looms over him.
"HOW COULD YOU SLEEP THROUGH EVERYTHING?! WE TRIED WAKING YOU BUT YOU WOULDN'T WAKE UP!" Nami looks extra spicy right now.
"What?" Zoro
...
He is now sleeping on the floor again, but this time under Braums shield and a stack of lumps on his head one meter high.
"Stay alert people! Who knows what will happen next!" Nami
"The sea is dangerous, the weather is unpredictable and my navigation knowledge is useless here." Nami
"You sure you'll be ok?" Usopp
"Of course! Something good will happen and there is proof, look!" Nami points in front of us.
"It's an island of giant cactuses! Whisky peak! Thank goddness we made it safely!" Luffy
At this moment mr 9 and Vivi land on the railing of the ship.
"Well, we'll be taking our leave now." mr 9
"Thanks for the ride darlings! We'll see you again, fate willing!" Vivi says while gazing at me with a bit reluctance.
""Bye bye baby!"" The two jump into the water and swim away.
"They are gone?!" Luffy
"Who were these guys?" Usopp
I just stare as Vivi leaves while feeling som sort of connection. I reach out my hand and try to grab it.
*Drip drip drip*
"Wa hvoe!!" In my fist I am holding up the wet with sea water Vivi, who is confused as hell right now.
Braum is still sleeping, Usopp and Luffy look with shining eyes, Sanji has heart shaped eyes and the last two a gawking.
'I wanna mess with her~'
I turn her around to face me and point at her nose.
"Staaaaay~" I give out this command like to a dog before slapping her back on my back. Like it's some kind of natural adaption, she grabs on without saying anything else and stays quiet.
"Good girl~" I ruffle hair.
"Uuu~" She let's that sound out before covering her mouth with her face red.
"What the fuck happened right now?!" Nami
"SO COOL! Teach me!" Luffy
"TEACH ME TOO~" Sanji wiggles with hearts instead of eyes.
"Tch! Another annoyance!" Zoro
'Well this is weird... I feel the same connection with her as with Braum. Did I make her my summon? Oh! That lasso when I saved her! That would also explain the attachment to myself... But not the 'my prince~' reaction. How should I explain?'
"Well you see Braum, right? I was able to summon him from another world and now he is here as my summon. When I saved ms Wednesday, I seemed to form a connection with her. Now I can summon her to my place whenever I want?" I make it look like I'm guessing.
"I'M SO JEALOUS!!!" Sanji bites his handkerchief in frustration.
"Hahahaha! Guess we have another crewmember, huh? You said all your summons can be considered as Straw hats." Luffy laughs before patting Vivi on the back.
Vivi bites her lower lip from frustration.
'How did I get screwed over like this? It's this guys fault!' Vivi
" Oh btw! This is our captain Monkey D Luffy, the second mate Roronoa Zoro, our navigator Nami, our cook Sanji, our sniper Usopp, our shieldman Braum and I am Clawe D Lynx, the summoner. And who are we?" Lynx
"The Strawhat pirates!" Luffy and Usopp yell.
"And this here is our newest member- Nefertari Vivi!" Lynx
Vivi freezes and with a horrified expression looks at me.
"How do you know!!!" She hugs my cheeks with her hands and stares into my eyes.
"Becauwse I gnow wat is goin on hyere and in Alabyasta." She is squeezing my face too much.
"HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT!!!!" Vivi is now screaming like a banshee.
I grab her arms and pull them off my face.
"Does it matter? We will help you after you decide to share the story with everyone here. Well let's enter Whisky peak and have some 'fun'." I make a malicious face.
"Well let's go up that river then!" Luffy commands.
