A Swordswoman Secret "On Hold For Now

Chapter 4: The Stoway And The Mysterious Girl

Zoro's POV: It was Ibis she got on the ship somehow.
"How did you get here and why are you here with us." I say to Ibis wondering and yelling at her a little loud not loud enough for the others to notice.
"So I have already been found on this ship." She says with a mischievous smile.
"Yea your lucky the others haven't found you now answer my questions."
"Ok, ok, the first answer is confidential and I'm here cause it interested me and it might help me out with my goal."
"What do you even mean by interested you and might help you with your goal."
"Well the goal is a secret and I thought being a pirate will be fun and besides I also wanna be known as a member of the future Pirate Kings Crew. I know that he wants to be the future Pirate King cause he said it himself a few minutes before you guys came, it peeked my interest."
"You know what we'll talk about this later Ibis, wait here."
"Fine." I say with a puffy face on pissed cause I being treated like a kid. Zoro begins to leave and goes back to the other side of the ship where everyone else was I guess, I don't know. I follow behind quietly. I leave her by herself cause I didn't know how to respond to her on that. What is her real reason. I might never know. I went back to the others so they wouldn't notice I was gone. Luckily they didn't. Im standing on the edge of the boat.
Luffy's POV: It was getting boring waiting to get to the Grand Line with nothing to do, so I ask Nami.
"Have we reached the Grand Line yet Nami" I say with kind of hope in my eyes and a little bored look.
"Really Luffy your already tired its only been two days geez."
"Hey guys." Usopp interrupts the conversation.
"What is it Usopp?" I ask with wonder in my voice.
"Their is something at our starboard side of the ship."
Usopp points to the flock of seagulls around in a circle. I stretch out my hand out to grab what I think is fish, in reality it was a little girl. As I was pulling her in I knock Zoro off the edge of the ship. As that happens a voice out of nowhere begins to laugh.
Ibis's POV: I was heading to the starboard when I saw Zoro getting knocked off the ship. I start laughing very quietly cause for some weird reason I think people's misfortunes are hilarious. I notice a little girl on the floor probably was fished out of the water. She is wearing a long mustard yellow dress. The color of the sleeves and the bottom of the dress are maroon with mustard colored circles. She has a dark maroon sash around her, and has the same colored undershirt on. She has brown eyes, blonder hair tied back in a very thin braid, and fair skin. She is wearing a pointy hat, white in color, and wearing red shoes. Looks like she is still alive that's good. Why was she out at sea?
"Sorry about that Zoro." Luffy says with a childish smile.
"One of these days I will kill you." Zoro says to Luffy as he grabs his hand to get back on the ship. I couldn't control my laughter cause of this situation.
"This is hilarious to watch." I say blowing my cover as the other look my way and see me their.
"How did you get on the ship." Everyone says to me except Zoro. Surprised looks on their faces begin to appear and a look of what to do with her. I walked away and brought the girl to the kitchen. I thought I was in the clear until I heard a voice.
Sanji's POV: Someone is here I know it
"Show yourself." I say with annoyances that made me want to hurt the intruders but then again if someone is hungry I serve them no matter who they are or if they don't pay.
Time Skip: A few minutes began to pass as a shadow of something began to move out of the room.
"There you are." I say ready to kick the intruder. As I went to kick the intruder. It was blocked, blocked by Zoro' s hand.
"I thought you wouldn't hit a women Sanji." Zoro says with a snarky attitude.
"I have never hit a women."
"You were just about to hit Ibis in the face you know."
"What,how did she get on the ship."
"That's not important now, I brought the little girl cause I think the smell of food will make her wake up." Ibis says with concern in her voice. After the situation happened,everyone came to us.
Ibis's POV: A few minutes begin to pass as the little girl began to wake up to the smell of Sanji's cooking.
"Oh your awake finally." I say to the little girl with a concern like a mother caring for her child.
"You look like you were out there for a while lets get you something to eat little one, Sanji can you prepare something to eat for the little girl." I say like an order and he gets her something to eat.
"Yes Ibis coming right up." Sanji replies with hearts in his eyes, makes me want to puke.
"Where am I?" The little girl asks as she began to get up.
"Your on our pirate ship."
"Luffy why did you say that." Zoro punches Luffy cause of that comment.
As Luffy said that she begins to freaks out and decide to refuses to eat any food given to her by one of the pirates. She runs away. I was about to get her but a hand grabbed my right shoulder.
"Leave her be Ibis she will be fine." Zoro says with a calm voice and a hand on my right shoulder so I wouldn't run away, it made me blush scarlet. He notices what was going on and Zoro lets go of my right shoulder blushing in embarrassment.
"Can I join your crew Luffy." I say seriously.
"You on our ship so I guess so." He replies but as he said that Usopp interrupts.
"Wait how can we trust her we just met her well somehow Zoro and Sanji has already met her." Usopp says questioning me. Waiting for a punishment I hear a voice beginning to speak.
"She is on our side, she was the one who told us where Luffy was at Loguetown." Zoro said as he stood up for me. What is going on.
Besides I was also the one who saved Luffy from being executed." I say seriously trying to gain their trust and it was also the truth.
"What did you just say." Everyone looked at me with shocked expressions.
"I was the one that slashed Buggy when he was about to execute Luffy." I say
"That was your doing." Luffy asks me with a shocked expression and a happy aura.
"Thanks Ibis how did you do that back then."
I don't answer I just grab my sword out of its holder and show what it can do. I strike at the sea with one single slash that makes a giant hole in the ocean.
"My sword can even cut people who possess Devil fruit powers. 
"That's one powerful sword you got their." Sanji says amazed at what I just did.
"Not really a surprise for the top swordswoman in the world." Zoro says to the others. 
"Wait you knew who I was." I say surprised for once. i know im a big talk but nobody knows what I look like until now.  
"Yep cause of your sword you wield, its a one of a kind very powerful and very rare only one in existence and is wielded by Ibis, that's how I know you were her." Zoro says to me. 
"Your correct im Ibis the strongest swordswomen in the world."
"If your that strong why do you want to come with us on our journey." Usopp says to me.
"Usopp think before you say something, that was just rude." Nami says punching Usopp in the head.
"Ow, alright sorry Ibis." Usopp says honestly.
"It's fine dont worry about it." I say with a childish smile. 
Honestly im more worried about the little girl  where did she go.
Time Skip
 It is nighttime and I couldn't sleep, I am literally on the deck laying down looking at the stars. Until I heard a noise coming from the kitchen. It was a funny sight to see. The little girl was in the kitchen to get something to eat quietly. 
"Looks like you were hungry little one." I say to the little girl with a childish smile on my face that was comforting and caring like a mothers smile. 
"Dont worry were not evil trust me on that." I say.
"Ok I guess I have to." The little girl says, I just smile and begin to speak again.
"Lets get you something to eat while those two are arguing over there." 
"Ok."
I give her a roll of bread to eat and tell her to go back to sleep.
 I begin to speak again.
"What's your name anyway?" I ask.
"Apis is my name miss and your name."
"Ibis."
