Eventually, when we built up enough strength we sat up and leaned on each other. We waited for ourselves to either fall asleep or let ourselves stand up. It was far into the day when we were able to stand or really force ourselves to.

"Juno!" Sanji screamed and I turned to him and then stumbled a little.

"Hey!" I grinned. "Is everyone smiling?"

"Is that important right now?!" Sanji yelled as he was careful around us, he looked horrified as he studied our new wounds. "Your wings are red...what happened here?!"

"Nothing happened." I giggled as Zoro rasped it out.

Sanji ran over to me when I started to fall and he held me bridal style. I looked at my hands to see how much I am shaking, but it has been worse. I felt something hit my veil then I looked up to see he was crying surprising me. "That's not a good thing to do!" I exclaimed.

"What you did is far worse! Waking up with you nowhere near..." Sanji trembled as he held me even closer then crouched down as he took in a deep breath. "Don't leave me alone either."

"I won't." I reassured him and then felt comfort from his hold, it was warm and if he was panicking over us that meant everyone else is fine. "Nothing really happened."

I soon fell asleep and woke up next to Zoro. I placed my hand on his cheek feeling its warm. I then sat up and saw everyone is here and seem to be getting ready for what looked to be a party.

"Juno!" Nami and Luffy yelled, and I waved at them slowly.

"Chopper!" Usopp brought him over to me, and he gave me a check-up.

"What happened?" Robin asked me concerned as Nami seemed as concerned while I noticed everyone else was looking over as well.

"The explosion hit me hard. Sorry, I did my best to protect you all, I used to many orders so a lot of blood came out in exchange." I lied, but if I really did do that it would have been what happened.

The others seemed unsure. "Juno." Luffy stared at me.

"I like your smile!" I exclaimed confusing him then he grinned, I really meant it as an explanation to. If he found out we got hurt from his pain, he would blame himself and we are alive, so why even speak about it?

Sanji walked over to me and then put his forehead against mine making me blush and some around us gasped at the intimate act. "You're gorgeous." Sanji admitted.

"Eh?!" I let out shocked. "I'm no-"

"I won't tell." Sanji whispered to me and I grinned at him.

Not to long after we were eating delicious food, but I wasn't able to eat a lot still. Brook and Franky were dancing together on the tables making everyone cheer. Nami was feeding me my food and we were right near Zoro who is still asleep.

"You recovered much faster than him." Chopper informed me.

"You were both so close to death!" Nami added as I was chewing on a dessert. "You two are the toughest in the crew, even if you don't look like it."

"I trained?" I mumbled.

"Torture isn't training." Robin informed me.
