It was just a normal day on the Thousand Sunny, Sanji and Zoro were arguing, Nami and Robin were sitting and reading, while Luffy, Chopper, and Ussop were fishing and Franky was doing some work on the Sunny. Well it was almost perfect, Luffy wasn't feeling good, of course he wasn't going to tell anyone, he thought that the captain should worry about his crew not the other way around. Luffy went to walk over to Sanji to ask for some meat when he suddenly collapsed on the deck. "LUFFY!" shouted everyone in unison. They all ran over to him at once with a look of shock on all of their faces. Luffy was breathing heavily and looked very sick, Chopper was examining him also worried about their captain. Suddenly Luffy opened his eyes and tried to stand up "sorry about that you guys don't worry about me I just need some meat." he said as he got to his feet. "Luffy you need to have chopper take a look at you" said Nami, "Nami I'm fine I just need some fo-" before he could finish his sentence he collapsed again. Right away Chopper started barking orders."Zoro and Sanji carry Luffy into the infirmary, Robin go fill up a basin of cold water for his fever, and Nami and Franky make sure to keep the ship steady. Now go!"

Everyone moved as fast as they could so that they could hear what is wrong with their precious captain sooner. After everyone did as they were told they all gathered around the infirmary door to wait until Chopper told them what was wrong with their captain. Mean while, Chopper was hard at work doing tests on the unconscious Luffy trying to come up with a diagnosis on what made him so sick so fast. "This isn't good he's getting worse by the minute and I still can't find out what's wrong with him" Chopper said in tears. Back outside the Straw hat crew was getting more worried with each minute Chopper was still in there,

"What do think is wrong with him?" asked Nami to Robin "I'm not sure we'll just have to wait until Doctor comes out" Robin answered.

"Hey is anyone up there!" said a voice known only to the first few crewmembers.

Everyone ran to the side of the boat to see Portgas D. Ace looking up smiling and waving at them. "Ace what are you doing here, I thought you were after Blackbeard?" said Zoro who is in charge while Luffy is sick.

"Well I was after him when I saw your new ship. Man is it cool!" said Ace, the newer members were just staring at him confused except for Robin who hides her emotions well,

"oh sorry' Robin and Franky this is Luffy's older brother Ace, Ace this is Robin and Franky." Said Nami

"Nice to meet you, speaking of Luffy where is he I don't see him anywhere?" he said looking around for his kid brother.

Everyone looked away from the fire logia, not wanting to tell him about Luffy getting sick, when suddenly Chopper came out with his head down and tears flowing like a river, he didn't notice Ace but started speaking "I can't find out what is wrong with him, and if I don't soon then he will die!" Chopper said now full out crying.

Everyone looked at him with shocked faces even Robin."What do you mean you can't find what made him sick!" said a very angry Sanji.

Everyone had momentarily forgotten about Ace, who was sacred as hell and mentally praying it wasn't Luffy in the infirmary dying.

"Chopper please you have to find out what's wrong with him" Nami said with tears in her eyes.

"Guys, who is he talking about" said Ace trying to hide the sacredness in his voice.

"Luffy IS DYING!" yelled out Chopper who thought he was a crewmember and running up to him and hugging his leg.

Ace froze; he never thought that Luffy of all people would get sick. "This is a joke right?" said Ace with a voice that promised pain if it was, "Oh it's you Ace" said Chopper "come see for yourself" he said solemnly leading him to the infirmary door.

As they entered Ace couldn't believe what he was seeing, Luffy was lying on the infirmary bed with an oxygen mask strapped onto his face and hooked up to an IV bag and a heart monitor, he was breathing heavily and looked flushed and in pain.

"He collapsed on deck earlier today and has only gotten worse." Said Chopper sadly

"Luffy" Ace said in shocked. He took a seat next to his brother's bed and took his hand in his and started rubbing small circles in it. Chopper came to the other side of the bed and took a blood sample to study.

"Can you find anything?" Ace asked "No. but I'll keep trying Ace I promise." Said chopper, who is now studying Luffy's blood.

"Luffy if you die on me I'll bring you back so I can kick your ass." Said ace but chopper could see the worry in his eyes, but decided not to say anything. After a couple of hours the results came up with something chopper thought was impossible to get nowadays.

"No way, that should be impossible to get. Why does he have this?" "What is it chopper, is it bad" said ace who hasn't moved an inch since he walked in. "he has

uh oh. it seems that I left a cliffhanger. oh well!

Robin: fufufufu~ that is quiet mean of you, author-san.

Me: ROBIN! *tackles her in a hug* I didn't mean to, honest! it just happened, ya know?

Ace: you better! I want to see what happens to my little brother!

Me:*hiding behind robin* don't worry, I will. I promise!
