A Place Called Zou.
----God Usopp----
"Did you just call me 'God'? I'm flattered! I'm a man of 200 million and I'm flattered!"
It's the mere fact that Franky looks about ready to murder Usopp that actually has Kyo smirking to herself, the redhead getting distracted when she notices a slight stick in her step, her brows furrowing when she looks down to realize that she's standing in a piece of chewing gum that had been stuck to the deck.
And there goes her smirk.
...These people are disgusting...
"I'm sure even the navy admirals are aware of you now." At that comment, her smirk makes a reappearance to her face, mainly because she knows that remark isn't going to flatter Usopp at all. "Look, the vivre card is pointing towards that."
"Oh, you're right! That means your friends are there!"
I hope they're all well.
"Usopp, you look sick." Robin's concerned observation bringing the redhead's attention back toward the sniper, a grin breaking out across her lips when she notices just how horrified he looks. "Do you want some chewing gum too?"
"Pwahahaha~! Perhaps a name change would suffice, no?"
----Ryunosuke----
"Is it a snake?"
It's clearly a newt.
"Appear, Rising Dragon!"
"Dragon?!"
...Oh?
She can't quite pretend that she's not interested as the doodle comes to life, her brow quirking as she stares at the creature's eyes. Completely ignoring the fanboying Luffy in the background as the drawing seemingly grumbles something incoherent.
Is it sick?
"Dra...Dragon..."
And just like that, she's rolling her eyes.
Honestly, if that's a dragon then I'm a giant.
"Some kind of pathetic creature appeared!" Once again, she finds herself snickering at Usopp today, trying her best to hide it with her knuckles at least.
"What an upsetting way to speak about yourself, Usopp." She murmurs lowly, but still loud enough to catch his ear.
"I wasn't speaking about myself, you she-devil!" The girl merely pretends she didn't hear that remark as the two continue to stare at the badly-drawn dragon. "Well, if we can fly on the dragon, we can get there quickly."
"I think that was the intention but where are the wings?" She watches the odd creature as it makes it's way toward the elephant's hind leg before seemingly leaning up against it.
"Alright, everyone, cling to it's back! It's gonna climb up!"
Oh, good...that's grand. I certainly hope it doesn't die before we reach the top.
----When Ryunosuke Slid Down The Elephant's Leg----
She screamed.
Literally, screamed like a little bitch, all whilst clutching so tightly to Law that it's possible her fingernails may have impaled both his shirt and his skin underneath.
By some miracle, the creature managed to gain it's grip on the elephant, the redhead still looking a little dishevelled and her brown eyes watering from fear.
She has never been afraid of dying until this moment, she's not sure why she wants to cling to life so tightly now but she can say, if fate absolutely must kill her - she'd rather it be through any other way apart from drowning.
Once she realizes that she's still very much alive and dry, she takes a breath.
Pull yourself together!
"He scared the crap out of me."
And just like that, she's snickering again. She has never heard Law express fear so openly before, especially not within earshot of so many people who aren't members of his crew, it amuses her greatly.
"I wish he could fly."
You and me both, Franky.
----The Top----
The rest of the way up was a bit of light torture.
At least it's almost over.
The constant fear of falling combined with the posture she had to sit in; it was hell and it soon began to hurt her thighs.
"Alright, Ryunosuke! Way to go!"
A bit of struggle catches her attention, her eyes widening as Luffy falls backward, Usopp was able to catch the raven's backpack but Luffy himself simply slipped right of it, falling into the fog below.
"What are you guys doing?!"
"Oh my..."
"Luffy, do something!"
"Do you think he's dead?" The redhead murmurs to herself softly as she stares down below, well until a pair of arms come flying back up anyway, clutching onto the 'dragon' and pulling it backward.
The girl's soul just about leaving her body as she clings to the surgeon once again, her thoughts jumbling so much that the only sound she could possibly muster is a terrified squeak.
Why? Why does Luffy do these things?!
With some moral support from the Straw Hats, Ryunosuke was able to cling to the elephant's leg once again and force his way up to the top.
The Straw Hats all celebrating the second they're off the dragon, minus Robin who offers it some kind words whilst Kyo...well, she's clutching onto the cross pendant around her neck and silently thanking whatever higher force is up there for not killing her just yet.
Never again! Once this alliance is over, I'm hoping to stay away from these lunatics for the rest of my days! Assuming I even make it that far!
"Hey, wait! Ryunosuke!"
Her large and still-watery eyes flickering back toward the creature as it slowly turns back into a doodle, she was previously wondering to herself what would happen when the 'dragon' has done what it was created to do, whether it'll continue living or not.
Seems she now has her answer.
"I almost feel sorry for the newt-dragon, what a short and strenuous existence he had."
"This is absurd."
"It's just a bad drawing."
And they say I'm cold.
