Luffy's One and Only

Untitled Part 4

The duo and the pirates once again started talking to each other, not bothered by the age difference or by the fact that the pirates were wanted criminals, but just having fun. Luffy, who was arguing with Shanks while Yuna talked to one of the crew members named Yasoop, suddenly stood up. Knife in hand, Luffy started yelling at Shanks about how he is old enough to become a member of his crew and how he could prove it. Rising the knife in his hand, he pointed it, just below his left eye, and thrust it towards his face. Yuna looked at the scene in horror and, Shanks looked at the idiot, shocked, before Shanks and the crew burst out laughing. Even though Yuna could see the concern in his eyes, it still pissed her off.

Ignoring everyone else, Yuna ran to Luffy, checking his wound. Yuna started yelling orders at everyone. Nobody dared go against the raging girl. Unbeknownst to Yuna, her red eyes looked almost black in her worry, a murderous aura surrounding her. The wind from the Kaze Kaze no mi was surrounding her and Luffy in a protective sphere barrier. The only one who could get even close enough to get inside the sphere was the owner of the bar. The owner, Maki, as Yuna called her, kept going in and out of the barrier of wind. But, if anyone else besides her even tried, they'd get attacked by wind whips or, it would feel like they couldn't breathe. Yuna knew she was overly worried, but she couldn't help it. Yuna saw her 7-year-old friend stab himself in the fucking face. It wasn't surprising to be afraid. She doesn't want to lose another person who's precious to her.

When Maki gave her the stuff needed, Yuna quickly went to work. Wiping the young boy's bloody face before disinfecting it, "Sorry, Lu, but this is going to hurt," Yuna whispered to the crying kid, grabbing her stitching tools. The bystanders were worried she was going to ruin any chance of the stab wound healing right. But, she once again surprised them all by doing it better than most doctors in the Foosha village. Yuna stiched Luffy up in record time. Finishing up, she grabbed an ointment that helps relieve pain and lightly put it on the fresh stitches before pulling out a stitch bandage that she stole from the doctors. Yuna lightly put the wrap on the raven-haired idiot in front of her before smacking him on the head, hard.

"YOU'RE AN IDIOT, A FUCKING IDIOT," Yuna screamed, full black eyes glaring at the scared raven-haired boy. "DON'T EVER DO SOMETHING SO STUPID EVER AGAIN," Yuna continued, ignoring everyone gaping at her. Yuna was angry at the little stunt he pulled as it was a rude awakening of what the future holds in store. Yuna was angry but only at herself for not being able to do anything about the pain he will feel in the future, as well as the pain he was feeling now. Yuna didn't like Luffy to get hurt, but she realized that since she was going to become a pirate with him, this is inevitable.

Once again, ignoring everyone, Yuna packed the stuff she used to heal him and gave it back to Ma before walking out of the bar. Luffy gaped at where she was just moments before, then turned to Shanks before getting up and following the raging girl. Shanks and his crew looked at where they both were before looking at each other and sweatdropping, "Did anybody else see that," asked Shanks, and the others nodded.

Luffy followed his best friend. The raven-haired boy was worried about her. The look in her black eyes when she glared at him was nerve-wracking. It was a gaze filled with worry and sadness. Luffy didn't mean to make the white-haired girl sad, but he wanted to prove himself to Shanks so, how was he supposed to know she would react like that? He followed the girl in camouflage, sighing when he noticed the recognizable path. This path leads to the first place Yuna and him hung out, eating their separate boars and cuddling under the stars. Luffy had so much fun that day, but now was no time to reminisce. He had to make sure his weird friend was okay.

As it turns out, following a pissed-off wind user was hard, especially when they didn't know how to control their powers as they got them just mere hours before. Luffy was struggling, but he kept up, dodging flying branches and rocks, eventually making it to the angry white-haired 7-year-old. Luffy rubbed the back of his neck. The raven-haired boy wasn't the best at comforting others, usually being able to just use his fist to sort out his problems. Sitting down next to the crying girl Luffy sighed, he hated seeing his best friend so upset.
