For Freedom We Fly

Chapter 37

Fate Whispered to the warrior 'You cannot withstand the storm' and the warrior whispers back 'I am the storm'

The world rumbled around them, the cloudy sky above them vanishing in a raging storm of yellow lighting. pieces of sky and rocky ruin falling left, right and centre. Zoro pushed a boulder away, growling at the rock - cursing out the boulder with a passed-out chopper in his other arm. Anyone could see the man glancing worriedly at the reindeer before turning his attention to the others fallen from the sky, they were now at the bottom of the beanstalk. Was this the kingdom robin had been talking about?

The green haired swordman took in the ruins, blinking in surprise at the sight... The giant snake from before, just spat out Nami and the old man? What? He glanced before taking in the surrounding, more crumbling ruins fell from the sky but smaller piece and bits of floating cloud. Zoro scrutinize the native who had attacked them previously as he caught sight of the man.

"Mr swordman..." robin spoke, watching the man's grumblings, "did you fall along with those rocks?"

Dawnya turned her attention to the greenette taking in his battered appearance – it seems like she was the only one mostly intact. Her blue hues dropped down towards an unconscious chopper...

"oh, you guys are here"

Dawnya glanced away hearing the snake like laughter only for it to divert into dripping tears. She jumped onto the ruins, looking at the sight from a higher ground, the giant snake from before was crying... searching for something in the ruins? What an odd thing to do...

"Could that snake but searching for the oriental inhabits of the city? Could it be over 400 years old?" she wondered out loud watching the crying creature.

They were a crackle of lighting – the yellow golden glow halting the whaling sounds that haunted the city. The giant creature crashing to the ground, alive of dead she didn't know. Right... then had to deal with God?

"Ahhh!"

"Aisa!"

"ooh no Nami!" Zoro yelled. Momentarily forgetting that said ginger had escaped in the down fall.

"huh Zoro?" Nami called from behind a ruin wall.

"Why are you over here?! How did you get out?"

"Why is miss navigator here?" robin questioned, wasn't Nami supposed to get the ship to the egde of the isle?

"Never mind that... Luffy is still inside the snake?" Nami facepalmed.

"He'd be fine from the lighting" Dawnya spoke up with confidence in her captain. She knew more about lighting that she cared to admit. "The poison fangs however..." her voice drifted off ignored as Zoro and Nami descended into an argument.

"ENEL!" a roar echoed in the ruins followed by a blast.

The pirates followed the echos, God or Enel, sat on a floating ball of cloud, the native before him glaring daggers. Robin, the knight, herself and Zoro standing tall. Nami sat hidden before ruin walls with a sleeping chopper.

"Just wait a little longer the games not over yet!"

"What game?!" growled out the native, if looks could kill the 'god' would be six feet under.

"That's right you and those others behind are all contestants" the so called 'god' explained. "Of my little game. The rules are really simple. It's a survival game" grinned the man, smile stretching across his face. "of course, I am also a contestant. Some people joined partway in but it doesn't matter. I predicted that there would be 5 survivors"

Dawnya resisted the urge to glance in Nami's direction – hopefully he hadn't noticed Nami and chopper... or maybe knocked out doesn't count. "In three minutes, the three-hour time limit will be over. Thus, it is quite problematic that there are still 6 survivors here"

A shiver ran down her spine he knows about Nami. But... what about Luffy? Doesn't he count? How does the 'god' even know the correct number of people... chopper isn't dead just asleep she could sense his breathing from here... doesn't knocked out or asleep not count towards the numbers.

Enel glanced down at them with a relaxed almost bored expression, "3 hours after you stepped onto this island, we see how many people among the original 81 contestants are still alive. However, god's predictions can't be wrong. So, two of you here will be eliminated. Will you do it yourselves or should I do it for you?"

The tension in the air increase as the words circulated them. Two more need to be 'eliminated' from Gods game.

"Hey, do you want to?" Zoro broke the silence.

"No thank you" robin responded bluntly.

"Me neither" Zoro grumbled.

"Same here" Dawnya muttered, "I never consented to play this game"

"you guy?" zoro glanced towards the native and knight.

"I don't think so" the native gritted his around the fag in his mouth.

"I refuse as well" the sky knight glared at the god.

Will a quick glanced to Nami they all knew her answer...

A little movement and all weapons where raised pointing towards the relaxed man, God, Enel whichever name he was called.

"YOU WILL" the group declared as one, she could feel the wind growing reckless in her core as tension grew. The god smirked at the answer like he already knew the answer from the start.

"How impudent!"
