Celestia listened to the alarm blaring as she smiled. "Seems like Luffy has caused a problem for the marines." She spoke.

"We'll use it to our advantage and get the hell out of this place." Zoro spoke. Glancing down at her as he lightly leaned closer for a sec. Removing some dust he saw on her hair.

Celestia noticed as she stood still. "Did you get it?" She asked.

"I did. Now come on before they run past here again." Zoro replied.

Nodding up at him as she glanced at him. "Good luck out there." She spoke. Walking out as she made sure to head for an exit close to them leading them out of the base.

Zoro left the closet after her as he found his other swords and took them with him before joining her. Finding the exit as they watched Luffy and Nami fighting the marines back to back. The safe being kept between them both.

Celestia stopped as she watched them for a second. Feeling Zoro grab her hand to take her to the exit as she stopped him. "W-wait." She spoke up. "We can't just leave them behind." Pulling her hand back as she rushed over to help.

Zoro watched her run back as he glanced back at the exit before turning back around. He couldn't leave just like that as he decided to help her out. Taking his swords out before attacking quickly.

Celestia smiled seeing him join before taking out two marines. Holding their swords before attacking the rest of them. Leaving Axe-hand Morgan to Luffy and Zoro. Focusing on helping Nami with the guards.

The fight lasted a while until Zoro and Luffy worked together. Taking down the axe-hand man. Catching their breathes before walking back to the safe.

"We need to find some kind of rope or something to get this thing out of here." Nami spoke as she glanced at the safe.

Zoro walked over before simply picking it up and carrying it on his shoulder.

"Or we could do that.." Nami spoke as she watched him pick it up in a bit of shock.

Celestia smiled as she watched him do so. "I didn't know you could do that." She spoke as she followed him. Teasing him about it.

"There's a few things you don't know I can do." Zoro spoke as he smirked.

Celestia let out a small laugh. "Such a tease." She spoke as she grinned. "I'm going to have you carry me around."

"This way." Nami spoke as she walked ahead of them. Leading them to the docks and to the boat she had stolen previously. "This one right here." She pointed to her boat.

Zoro got on as he dropped the safe down.

"Hey! Easy with it!" Nami spoke up.

"Whatever you say." Zoro spoke. "Oh wait.. I don't work for you."

Celestia lightly hit his shoulder. "What he means is thanks for letting us ride with you and not be caught by marines." She spoke as she got on the boat.

"I'm sensing a little tension amongst the crew." Luffy spoke as he stayed on the dock. Glancing their way.

"Not a crew." Nami and Zoro spoke at the same time.

"I am more than happy to be a crewmate." Celestia spoke as she smiled. "Seems kind of exciting." She added.

Luffy grinned her way before turning away. Placing his hands on his hips. "I can't leave without my friend though." He added. Changing the topic.

"We can't risk waiting. The marines will be here soon if we don't hurry." Zoro informed. Glancing out at the ocean for a second.

Celestia listened as she nodded. Getting off the boat as she stood in front of Luffy. Placing her hands on his shoulders as Zoro was a bit protective. Keeping his eyes on the two of them. "Your friend will be fine. He was not with you at the time of your great plan to steal a map and he should be fine for that." She tried to reassure him.

Moving her hands away from his shoulders she smiled before feeling herself being grabbed. Being moved back and away from the other three as she glanced at who it was. Not able to take him seriously.

Helmeppo smirked as he kept an arm around her neck. Holding two guns in his hands. "The marines are already here so don't move a muscle or I shoot her. You are all under arrest."

Luffy grew serious before noticing the hair he had. Not holding back his chuckle as he glanced at Zoro for a second before glancing back ahead. "What's wrong with his hair?" He asked as he laughed a bit.

Zoro smirked a bit. "Yeah. That might have been my fault." He admitted to his actions.

Celestia laughed a bit. "Sorry, sorry. That was uncalled for but I can't take you being my captor seriously. Especially looking like that." She spoke.

Helmeppo frowned at them laughing at him. "I won't be letting you make a joke of me. I am taking you in and handing you to my father. I'll be known as a hero by people and who knows.. maybe even get a medal." He let out. Firing one of the guns to prove he was serious.

Celestia flinched at the sound as it brought back a few unwanted memories she didn't seem fond off. Her ears ringing from how close it was to her ear as she closed her eyes tightly.

"What do you think you're doing?" A voice spoke up from behind Helmeppo.

Zoro glared at him intently when he noticed. Just as he raised a foot onto the edge of the boat to get out and attack him for what he did he noticed a blur of pink before seeing Helmeppo went down knocked out by one punch. Immediately rushing over to Celestia to check on her.

"Koby?!" Luffy asked in shock as he laughed. Seeing an unfamiliar blonde besides him.

"God that hurt." Koby spoke as he shook his hand from the pain. "But that felt really good too." He let out a breathy chuckle.

"You okay Cece?" Zoro asked. Placing a hand on her shoulder. Seeing her flinch by his touch at first.

Celestia calmed down. She knew his touch anywhere as her eyes opened. Glancing up at him a bit teary. "I'm okay." She spoke.

Zoro noticed as he placed a hand behind her head. His other going around her waist as he hugged her. Placing her head on his shoulder. "You have me now. From the day we met. You've had me by your side." He spoke. "I will never leave your side. You have my word. I will hurt those who hurt you." He spoke. "Do you trust me?"

Celestia nodded and listened as she moved closer. Feeling comfort from him before hearing a male clear his throat. Glancing back as it took her a moment before beaming. "Sanji?"

"The one and only." The blonde spoke.

"You made it but what about-?"

"I asked for a bit of time off to see the love of my life." Sanji smiled.

Celestia blushed as she pulled away from her hug with Zoro before rushing over as she hugged him immediately.

Sanji grinned as he hugged her back. Lifting her up as he gave a small quick twirl for them. Hearing her laugh made him feel the trip was worth it. He hadn't seen her in months after all. He did promise Zeff that he would bring her back to visit.

"I'm happy you're here."

"I am too but I'm happier to know that guy didn't do anything to you." Sanji replied.

"We have to leave now." Zoro warned.

"You're coming with us Sanji." Celestia spoke before getting on board with him and Zoro. Unaware of the expression of dislike they gave towards one another.
