Cursed

Chapter 1

“Are you okay Sanji?” Robin asked worry coating every word “Its not like you to drop plates like this” She looks down at the dejected cook currently plucking shards of plate and glass out of the carpet.

“I’m fine Robin my love, unless you want to give me a kiss to make me feel better?” Sanji raised his head and gave the beautiful Robin a wink. “Just let me know if there’s anything you need to talk about” Robin said with a chuckle as she headed back to the library.

Sanji finished up the cleaning and headed outs ide for a much needed cigarette.

“Hey Sanji!” Usopp called out walking over to the railing where Sanji was leaning “You alright man? You seem to have had a lot on your mind since the storm, anything I can do to help?” Sanji let out a little chuckle, if he knew what was wrong he would of fixed it by now. “Hey now! I’m not as weak as I used to be and you have to admit I’m pretty cunning” Usopp proudly stated with his chest puffed out.

“Alright, alright I’ll give you that” Sanji let out with a slight smile, “Truth is I don’t know what’s wrong, I just feel wrong that’s all”

“Have you talked to Chopper about it? Maybe it’s an illness or a cold?"

“Yeah he wasn’t sure what was wrong said it might be psychological but we’re going to check it out at the next island.” Sanji said before taking a long drag of cigarette.

“Well I’m here if you want to talk, you can always count on your old pal Usoppen!”

Sanji laughed as Usopp went to his workshop to tinker with some new gadgets he found.

“Island ahead!” Nami shouted from the helm “Everyone gather round for allowances and rules”
As soon as everyone had gathered and Nami made sure that the three idiots were listening she started

“This is a knowledge island alot of the people here are scholars so don’t go annoying them with your stupid antics!, No fighting, no being silly and no causing trouble!” She shot a death glare at her Captain to make sure he understood.

“Yes Nami” Luffy let out ,albeit rather snarky but aslong as Nami got the answer she wanted she’s happy. She handed everyone a small bag of berries each and a large one for herself of course.

“It’ll take us about 30 minutes to reach the island so start preparing now, I have to find out how long we are here before the log pose starts again”
Nami states "Oh and Sanji? Don't forget my shoes"

Sanji nodded "I'll get the pair that's most fitting for a princess" Sanji exclaimed bedding down to kiss Nami's hand

"Sweet talking won't get you out of this" She retorted snatching her hand from his grasp

“Is this island like Orahara Robin?” Chopper asked as he was getting the list of books he needed ready.

“No where will be like Orahara but I guess this is pretty close"

"Thousands of books and countless pieces of knowledge was lost forever in Orahara I don’t think we could ever rebuild it, but it makes me happy to see people still in love with knowledge” Robin continued

“It is a lovely sight isn’t it, and hopefully we can figure out what’s going on with Sanji” Chopper stated seemingly thinking out loud

“Is everything okay Doctor?”

“Im not quite sure, it doesn’t seem to be physical related and I still don’t really know what’s going on if only he would give me a bit more information”

“Information?” Robin asked inquisitively

“Yes all he says is that “he feels wrong” theres not much I can go on with that”

“Hmm that is curious Sanji is usually very healthy so I suppose anything would feel wrong I’m sure there are alot of doctors here who would love to take a look”

Chopper let out a beaming smile at the thought of meeting other doctors, all of the knowledge he could learn and everything he could pass on.

“LETS GO EVERYBODY!!” Luffy shouts as he runs off towards the town, not even waiting for Franky to dock the Sunny fully.

“Luffy no! Get back here” Nami demands but it falls on deaf ears. “Alright everyone do what you want to do but no causing trouble I’m going to round up our captain”

°°°
Sanji stepped onto solid ground which has felt like forever since he has last done so, shivers shot down his spine as a presence started growing stronger. He didn't know who or what this presence was, he only knew that it was in the forest and its pulling him in like he's in a trance.
