He is, in fact, not made of steel, has finally been resurrected! It has been rewritten and is now back up! XD

I apologize for somehow accidentally deleting it. Computers just don't seem to like to corporate me very much. :(

Just a fair warning, this song-fic may be a little bit different from the original one I wrote. It will only be subtle changes, so don't worry!

So, without further ado, here it is!

He is, in fact, not made of steel

Song: Made of Steel

Artist: Our Lady Peace

I can be anything that you want me to be, A punching bag, A piece of string, That reminds you not to think…

It was like there was nothing that he couldn't do. As long as he put his mind to it, there was nothing that could stand in his way. He would over come anything and everything. The thing that often isn't shown is that he could never have been as strong as he is if he was alone. Even at the times where is seemed like he was made of steel, he really was still just made of rubber.

…I found the note down in your car, And its not your fault it gets this hard, Gets this hard…

He would have died. He would have believed that in a month he would have been set free. He would have unknowingly broken his promise. It was Luffy that saved him. It was Luffy who had set him free. Luffy who recovered his katana, and who made him a pirate. Luffy hardly knew him and still fought for him. In return, Zoro would fight for Luffy.

…Hold your head high, Don't look down, I'm by your side, Won't back down, You wanted a hero tonight…

She had never known such freedom. She had always been alone, always forced to do Arlongs bidding. When she sailed with Luffy, it was like a vacation. Everyday was carefree and (she would never admit it) fun. Luffy had given her freedom. She chose to go with the Straw Hats. She would fight for Luffy.

…Well I'm not made of steel, I'm not made of steel, But your secrets safe with me…

His village was in danger. His history of lying had caused the villagers to not listen to him. The ones who usually did listen to him now wouldn't. When it seemed like he would die fighting alone, Luffy showed up. Luffy knew that he was telling the truth. Luffy helped him save Syrup Village. Luffy always believed him. He would fight for Luffy.

…I can be anything that you want me to be, A holy cross, Some sympathy, That reminds you how to bleed…

He thought that Luffy was crazy. He thought that Luffy was sure to lose the fight and his life, that his struggles were pointless. He was wrong. Luffy saved the Baratie. He had saved that shitty geezer's dream. Luffy had also given him a path to follow. This path would have many twists and turns, and there was a possibility that they wouldn't reach the end of the path, but he would fight for it. He would fight for Luffy.

…I found the note down in your car, And you climbed up here to fall apart, Fall apart…

He had felt like he had been alone his entire life. He was exiled from the other reindeers. His only father figure was now dead. Sure, he had Doctorine, but she could be scary at times. He had never felt like he truly belonged. Then he met a man who had carried two people, while climbing up thousands of feet for them. A man who had tried to eat him, then quickly started calling him nakama. No matter how many times he said no, or how many insults he threw at him, this man still persisted. He would fight for this man. He would fight for Luffy.

…Hold your head high, Don't look down, I'm by your side, Won't back down, You wanted a hero tonight…

She was wanted by the age of eight. Her home was utterly destroyed, forcing her to live a life of solitude. She trusted no one and didn't stay in one place for too long. She was an outcast of life. She didn't plan to get attached to the Straw Hats, or that she would grow fond of the constant chaos that surrounded them. It was Luffy that gave her a choice. Luffy said the one thing that no one had ever said she was allowed to have. Luffy told her to live, and that she could live. She had finally found her nakama. She would fight for Luffy.

…Well I'm not made of steel, I'm not made of steel, But your secrets safe with me, Your secrets safe with me…

He had fought both against and along side Luffy. He had watched as Luffy had lost nakama, and he had seen how Luffy still fought for those nakama. He never stopped fighting for them, and in the end he got them back. Luffy proved that he would make the world his enemy for even just one of his nakama. He was so moved by Luffy and his crew that he made the most super ship for them when they had lost theirs. Luffy was the one who had made his dream possible. He would fight for Luffy.

…They knock you down, I'll pick you up, They laugh at you, I'll shut them up…

He had lost his nakama. He had spent years sailing all alone, and the only thing keeping him going was his promise to his last remaining nakama. He had even lost his shadow, keeping him from ever entering sunlight. When it seemed like he had lost everything, he met the crew who changed all that. He had given him back his shadow, and made it possible for him to keep his promise. He had had also given him his new nakama. Luffy had made it so that he would never be alone again, and had given him hope that he would keep his promise. He would fight for Luffy.

…But I'm not made of steel, But I'm not made of steel, But I'm not made of steel, But your secrets safe with me, Yeah, Your secrets safe with me, Yeah…

Luffy would do anything for his nakama. They are important to him. They are so special that, he would do anything in his power to protect them. Luffy knew that there were some things that he couldn't do, and that's why he needed them more than anything. They could help him along the way to do the things that he couldn't, because when they were together, it felt like they could do anything. He would fight for them.

…Hold your head high, Don't look down, I'm by your side, Won't back down, You wanted a hero tonight.

There you have it!

I hope that this touched you (aha, not in the perverted way) and that you enjoyed the first song-fic of hopefully many.

I would love to know what you think of it so please review. :D
