CO...
There was no way Artemisia was going to be able to fall asleep. The conversation with Kaya and Nami had been enough to make her too awake to sleep. Sleeping would be a lost cause. So she decided to head to the kitchen with Nami. The two planned to get a midnight snack, hoping it would make them sleepy enough to go to bed. What they saw when they got to the kitchen was certainly not what they expected.
On the kitchen table was Luffy. He looked to be asleep. The sight made Artemisia raise an eyebrow. Nami called out to him, "Luffy." There was no response from the boy. He remained completely still on the tabletop.
There was a faint look of something around his mouth that Artemisia saw, "He probably passed out from eating too much. It should be fine." Artemisia shrugged. She hoped that nothing was wrong at least. This was Luffy though. It was very plausible that he passed out after eating. It was something he did regularly.
Still, Nami seemed a little worried, "Maybe... I just want to be sure. Luffy." She walked over to the table. There was still no response. A look of panic took over Nami's features. Artemisia had to admit, she was starting to get anxious too.
Upon closer inspection, the stuff around his mouth was blue. There was a pot of blue soup nearby that was completely empty. It must've been Kaya's special soup he got into. A faint gurgling sound could be heard coming from Luffy's stomach. That was something that wasn't supposed to happen. Nami opened one of Luffy's eyes. He remained unresponsive.
Shifting nervously, Artemisia leaned a little closer to the boy, "Okay, I'll admit... That's a little worrying." Luffy would've definitely woken up by now. He wasn't that deep of a sleeper. He usually woke up when you called his name once or twice. He should've woken up when Nami started messing with his eyes.
"A little?" Nami inquired sarcastically. She slapped his face once to get a reaction, "Luffy!" A groaning sound was made by his. His eyelids flutter and Artemisia could see his pupils move slightly. There was still no major response. Artemisia sucked in a deep breath. Soon after, clanging could be heard from nearby. Nami turned in the direction of the sound before turning back to Artemisia, "Help me get him."
"Okay. I get the feet." Artemisia was not going to put herself through the torture of having to smell his armpits. Nami rolled her eyes at this. Artemisia grabbed his legs and Nami put her arms under his armpits. When the two tried to move him, he didn't move.
