Blazelight (Roronoa Zoro x Assassin Reader)

Scars

It was almost as if (Y/N) had an alarm clock set up inside of her. She wasn't even trying to wake up at seven AM, and she apparently did. Maybe it was because of the dream she had about Nami going crazy and stabbed Zoro whenever he denied that he had a crush on her. She didn't even feel disturbed, maybe it was at the end, when Sanji barged into the room with a knife and covered in blood, holding three bodies which were so heavily mutilated that they didn't even look human. Her heart lurched when she saw a straw hat on one of them, black curly hair on another, and the final one having cropped and bloodied cyan hair. He took her words seriously, and killed them.

"Oh (Y/N)... I'm missing an ingredient here... You want to have your ice cream, now, don't you?" He said in a singsong voice that indicated that he was clearly insane. Nami ignored him. She just kept on stabbing a dead Zoro that didn't respond to pain anymore. He dropped the three bodies, and they didn't make a sound as they fell to the floor.

"I NEED MY INGREDIENT!" and He Charged at her. Normally in this situation, (Y/N) would get out her knife, block the attack, and slice him into ribbons, but (Y/N) was cemented to the ground. She couldn't move, and had to watch as Sanji repeatedly stabbed her. She woke up, half asleep and wide awake at the same time.

That was when she realised that the rain stopped. The snow and Wind has stopped as well, meaning that the storm's past. She sat up from the couch, and sighed in relief that she didn't fall down again, and she snuck over to the mast, climbing up it. She tried to push the trapdoor open, but it wouldn't budge. Not one bit. She snarled, and heaved at it with all her might, almost falling off the ladder in the process. Slowly, the trapdoor opened, shedding dim light into the room, and a bit of snow falling into it as well. Nobody woke, but Usopp did groan. (Y/N) stepped outside, and gasped. The deck was covered in thick snow, reaching up to her calves, explaining the heavy trapdoor, and it was freezing cold compared to a normal Autumn day. The sun was just on the verge of rising, shedding brilliant shades of red, orange, yellow, white, and pinks all over the sky, scattered like a world class artist that tried to draw a sunset while blindfolded. Light spilled across the frozen sea, as if there was an invisible crystal in front of the sun.

The Dawn Lights.

"GUYS, WAKE UP, WAKE UP, THE DAWN LIGHTS! IT'S HAPPENING! YOU GOTTA SEE THIS!"

Luffy was the first one to scramble up the stairs, shoving (Y/N) aside as he got a closer look. Usopp followed, just as ecstatic, followed by Sanji, who was unenthusiastic at first, but the moment he set eyes upon the view, he gasped. Vivi and Nami came out of the storage room, and gaped as they saw the lights. "I've never seen anything like this." Nami said.

'This is why Dawns Gate and Twilight Island are so popular, it's the lights.' (Y/N) said, smiling. 'I've seen this too many times, and I have never gotten tired of it.'

A yawn came from behind the girls, and Zoro rubbed his eyes as he got up onto the deck.

"Come on, what's go-" He saw the Dawn Lights and froze to the spot.

'Cool right?' (Y/N) smiled.

Zoro Just nodded without a word.

'HEY (Y/N)!' a voice called out from the sidewalk, and the moment she turned around, a black winter cloak came hurling at her, and she caught them just in time.

'YOU'LL FREEZE IN JUST THAT, WEAR IT!' Ayane screamed. She was clad in full winter gear, complete with a blue scarf. (Y/N) took the advice, and put the cloak on, Wing Side down. She hugged it close, and leaned on the handle of the boat, staring at the lights. She hasn't seen the Twilight lights in about three years, and she's planning to go to Twilight Island and check them out. She preferred the Blacks, Blues, Purples and cyans over the Reds, Oranges, Yellows and whites. She was on the Dark side of course, didn't surprise anyone.
