( Alabasta Arc )
"What!? A trap door?" Vivi gasped as she gripped the edge of the pit that the key had spiralled down. Ashe gripped the cell bars tightly, knuckles whitening, as she chewed on her bottom lip.
"It won't be too long until the rebels and the royal forces begin their battle to the death" Crocodile chimed with a devilish smirk "Even if you hurry to Alubarna from here who knows if you'd make it in time. To stop the rebellion you'll. we'd to leave at one Miss Wednesday. You can do that or stay and help your friends instead. It's you're choice but is you choose the latter I'd doesn't help that I accidentally dropped the key into the Bananagator den."
"Bananagators!?" Vivi gasped sharply as she watched the massive reptile make its way towards the key.
"What are those thing?" Luffy asked before letting out a cry of surprise as another creature swam behind the glass window of the aquarium "look out the window! There's an alligator growing out of that banana!?"
"In case you haven't noticed that's not the only one!" Nami barked.
"I looks like we're in an aquarium" Usopp quivered behind the tall white haired woman as he spoke "I hope we're not the fish food!"
"What a weird banana" Luffy hummed as he watched the animals. Ashe rolled her eyes and ran a frustrated hand down her face as a sigh passed her cherry lips. They boy was definitely special, and not in a good way.
"You idiot, look closer! They got banana growing out of them" Usopp explained with a huff "they're weird gators not weird banana"
"I don't think that's they thing you should be focusing on" Ashe snapped as she nudged the straw hat boys shoulder with her elbow. He only giggled before his attention was brought back to the princess who looked even more distraught than before.
"What now, Vivi what happened?" He asked.
"A big bananagator just ate they key to your cell!"
"Then go down there and make him spit it out!" Then boy cried out as if it was an obvious solution. Ashe nudged him again but more harshly.
"I wouldn't stand a chance!" Vivi argued "they're alpha predators at the top of the food chain and their so ferocious they even prey on sea kings, Luffy! Get near one and they devour you in one bite!"
Crocodiles chuckle cut off the useless bickering of the crew "Sorry, you might of had the key if I hadn't accidentally dropped it. And now there's no telling which one of my pets swallowed it!"
"Crap!" Luffy hissed.
"Thanks a lot you jerk!" Nami barked.
Zoro's gripped his white sword tightly as a scowl pulled across his lips "Damn it! If we could get out of here I could handle those overgrown reptiles!"
"Oh man, you're really dumb Zoro. We can't get out cause the key got swallowed" the young captain huffed. Ashe couldn't help the small smirk that pulled at the corners of her lips as the green haired swordsman fumed.
"I know that you stupid idiot!"
"Oh well" The warlord hummed before he clicked his finger to make the double door open with a dramatic squeak of its hinges "I'm sorry but we must be going, time is of the essence."
