YOSHH 8D!

I had finally gotten enough sleep. It felt very nice to be completely refreshed and awake. After walking out of the girl's quarters, I saw Usopp bending down to look at Zoro, who was sitting cross-legged against the railing.

"Where'd you get that?" Usopp asked. As I got closer, I noticed that he was wearing the bracelet I'd left him right above the black bandana he tied around his left arm, which made me smile. Soon after that, Nami appeared on the deck as well. After waking up the rest of the crew, she gathered us to tell us something.

"Tomorrow morning, we're setting off again," she announced. "If you've got anything you wanna get or do, make sure you finish with it today. Do you under-"

She paused. We stood there patiently, waiting for her to continue. I followed her gaze and found that she was staring at Zoro's arm, where the bracelet was. I could almost see her eyes light up.

"Nami? What's wrong?" Chopper asked with concern. Gradually, the rest of the crew turned their heads to see what she was staring at. Zoro stood there quietly, his arms folded in front of his chest.

"What?" he said.

"Oooo, what's that?" Luffy asked, tilting his head and pointing at Zoro's arm.

"Ah, I didn't notice that," Sanji said next, getting closer to take a look. "I didn't know you were into accessories, mosshead."

"I'm not!" he snapped.

"Of course not."

"It's so cool!" Chopper admired.

"You bought it for yourself?" Usopp asked. Nami cleared the way and stood in front of Zoro.

"Nah," she said, giving him a smirk. "It was a gift."

"From who?!" Luffy asked, interested.

"Gee, why do you guys care?" Zoro said irritably.

"Huuhhh…" Nami answered mischievously. She turned her head away from Zoro and walked back.

"Robin? Do you know?" Chopper whispered. I smiled and gave him a pat, avoiding the answer.

"It's from Robin!" Nami said before turning back and sticking her tongue out playfully.

"WHAT?!" Sanji shrieked, turning to me. "IS THAT TRUE?!"

"Hey I want one, too…" Luffy whined.

"Why? Is it his birthday?! CRAP DID I FORGET?" Usopp yelled.

"I'M SORRY, ZOROOOO! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" Chopper said, weeping softly at Zoro's feet.

"It's not my birthday, chill out!" Zoro told them. Perhaps I should have given it more thought before giving it to him.

"Yes, I gave it to him," I said at last. "And no, it wasn't for his birthday. I saw it in a shop while I was out with Nami and thought it suited him. That's all."

"Ohh, okay!" Chopper said with a relieved sigh.

"And I got this calendar out for nothing…" Usopp mumbled, folding it and tucking it under his arm.

"But…" Sanji whispered. "But, Robin-chan…"

"Sanji, food!" Luffy demanded.

Nami tapped her climatact on the floor to get our attention. "Why don't we play a game?"

Everyone looked at her, astonished.

"Nami, shall I check if you have a fever?" Chopper offered.

"NO, LET'S PLAY!" Luffy yelled. Nami smirked slightly.

"It'll be us against Robin," she explained. Luffy tilted his head.

"Why?" he asked.

"If she wins, we'll have to get her something. But if we win, she'll have to get gifts for each and every one of us," she said. "Minus Zoro."

I blinked a few times and smiled. "Sounds like fun. What's the game?"

"Tag!" Chopper squeaked.

"Eh? Tag?" Sanji said, recovering from his devastation.

"I guess it would work…" Nami began. "But instead of actually switching between the people who tag, we'll all run away and Robin has to be able to at least tap every one of us in order to win. Oh, and of course, she's banned from using her devil fruit ability. She can't use anything but her own two hands. If she can't catch us in forty minutes, she'll lose."

"Good luck, Nico Robin!" Franky said before he followed everyone off the ship. They all stood in a line in front of the Sunny. Once Nami counted to three, I'd jump off and try to catch them.

"One…" she began, poised to take off running, "Two…Three!"

I jumped off the ship and ran. Feeling like a child, I laughed. The first I planned to run after was Chopper. He looked back at me and his eyes widened.

"WHY ME?!" he shrieked, turning into his deer form and running faster. I finally caught up with him and gave his back a tap.

"Got you," I told him with a chuckle. He whimpered and plopped on the ground. Next was Usopp, who was running very fast, actually. He didn't even bother to turn his head towards me.

"FASTER…FASTER…FASTER!" he whispered to himself, boosting his speed. "You will never be able to catch the great and powerful, Usopp-sama!"

And then he tripped over a rock and fell.

Two down, six to go. Nami demanded that Zoro play, even though I'd already given him a gift. I looked around and couldn't see any of them. Confused, I turned around and faced the sea. What I saw made me smile, even though it meant my defeat.

"Come and get us, Robin," Nami teased. They were in the ocean. Zoro had Luffy on his shoulders, and Sanji, very happily, was carrying Nami. Franky was lounging on a bright yellow floaty. Once the forty minutes we're up, they returned to the shore safely.

"Good thinking," I told Nami. She grinned, pleased.

"You gotta get that shopping done," she said to me. "Remember, we're leaving tomorrow."

So, I only had one day to go around the town and look for gifts to give them. I had to think of good ones. I changed clothes headed to the town. Deciding that I wouldn't get any of them food, and instead buy them something that could last, I turned away from the food market and into the shopping center.

It was a very, very long shopping trip, but I finally finished. I had to go to more than fifteen stores to cover all the presents. Nonetheless, I was satisfied with what I found, and was quite excited to see their reactions. It was about eight in the evening when I finally returned to the ship. Clutching the shopping bags tightly, I walked into the men's quarters and found one of Luffy's sleeveless shirts, then headed back towards the girls' quarters. After finding Nami's sewing kit, I cut the top button off his shirt and sewed another one on. Once I'd finished, I folded it and put it in one of the shopping bags.

I walked into the kitchen and was welcomed by a loud ruckus. Everyone was getting ready to eat.

"Oh! Welcome back, Robin-chan~" Sanji greeted. I thanked him and shut the door behind me. I gave my fingers a few stretches after setting down the shopping bags.

"Luffy," I called out. He turned to me and grinned. I took his shirt out of one of the bags and handed it over to him.

"Huh?" he said, confused. He unfolded it and took a look at it. I had sewed on a golden button instead of an old one. It had a crown on it. His eyes widened and he quickly changed shirts.

"SO COOL!" he cried, his eyes sparkling in delight.

"Woah!" Chopper mused.

"Like a king…" Luffy whispered, looking down at the button, which made me giggle. Next, I took out an orange colored candle. I set it on the table in front of Nami. She grabbed it and gave it a sniff.

"Tangerine…scented candle!" she whimpered, not setting down the candle. She looked at me with teary eyes. "It's wonderful!"

"Let me smell," Usopp demanded, reaching out to take it. She slapped him and held it close to her. I gave Usopp a sturdy rubber band for his slingshot, since I noticed the one he had at the time was wearing out.

He simply laughed hysterically and ran out of the kitchen to replace the band.

"Tch, rude…" Sanji mumbled.

"I found this for you, Sanji," I said, handing a container to him. He took it politely and read the label.

"Oh, my dear sweet Robin-chan!" he swooned. "How on earth did you know I needed more hair gel? This is the finest quality, too!"

"You use that stuff?" Zoro asked, peering at the label.

"Yeah, I take care of my hair, unlike you, marimo!" Sanji snapped. Chopper looked at me and blinked a few times, hoping it was his turn to receive a gift. I nodded at him and he skipped over.

"Here you are," I said, giving him a small bag. He opened it and took out a small toy robot. He gasped and pulled a string from its back.

"Intruder alert. Intruder alert. Intruder alert."

Chopper's eyes widened like never before.

"THIS IS THE BEST!" he said, a hiccup escaping his throat. He clutched onto my leg and cried.

"Franky," I said, walking over to him and setting down a black bag. He grinned and opened it.

"This…this is…" he began, starting to shiver. Everyone stared at him and waited quietly.

"Nico Robin…this is…" he stuttered. He took out a brand new, red speedo.

Luffy and Chopper gasped. Franky started to cry, but denied doing so, as usual. Usopp had soon joined us again, showing off his slingshot. They all turned to me and gave me wide grins.

"Arigato, Robin!" they chimed together. I giggled and waved my hand dismissively.

"I'm happy you liked what I got!" I told them. Once that was over, we settled down to eat dinner. Zoro was being especially quiet that evening, but I didn't think too much of it. After all, I can't say he was a big talker to begin with.

As soon as the table was cleared off, Zoro cleared his throat to get our attention before we had the chance to leave the kitchen. Everyone turned their gaze to him and waited.

"Luffy, I wanna request something," he said. Luffy's face made a slight frown, noticing how serious Zoro was acting.

"What is it?" he asked. A few of us shifted in our seats before he continued.

"I'm aware that getting my strength back was no easy task," he explained. "And I know that going back wouldn't be simple, but I want to return to the island and set free the rest of the powers that the spirit took away."

Complete silence filled the room, until Luffy broke it with a loud chuckle.

"You took it right outta my mouth!" he yelled, excited.

"Are you really gonna risk your life again to do that?!" Nami cried out. "Not only Zoro, but someone else on the crew could get hurt!"

"Nami!" Luffy said. "NEXT MORNING, WE'RE GOING BACK! WE'LL FIGHT TOGETHER!"

Nami sighed in defeat, but a smile crossed her lips. I saw no point in arguing about it: it was a very brave and selfless thing to do, after all.

Well, here we go…again!

Yours truly-Pride: Thank you for suggesting the idea of going back to the island and fight for the other stolen strengths. It was a fab idea, Jii-neechan C:!

Thank you everyone, and I hope you all have a fabulous osm life 8D!
