"There is only one way out of this ship...."

Nami tilted her head down in thought as she stood in her spot defiantly.

"Such an unwise choice it was," Enel glanced down at his golden staff briefly, "Giving up the life line you have been holding on to...!!" His eyes then flickered up to meet her starch amber ones, "...Unless... You are hoping that you can rely on... These two rats that sneaked in... a while ago."

At that, Nami perked up, "Eh...?"

"It seems they really are trying to rescue you..." He descended the stairs that led up his throne, "How foolish of them."

Faythe let out a ragged gasp and lurched forward, "DODGE!!"

Nami's eyes widened a smidge as she rolled to the left to dodge a lightning strike from the God, "AH!!"

"Yahahaha... No one will rescue you, because I am taking care of you here and now." Enel grinned with satisfaction, slyly glancing over at the trembling red head, "Anything to break the Arcus into submission."

A shiver ran down Faythe's spine at the statement, "Your disgusting twisted mind..." she spat in distaste.

Nami scowled at the God and reached behind her belt for her clima-tact.

"YAHAHAHA... THAT IS INTERESTING GIRL...!!" Enel was having the time of his life as he entertained the ginger with a petty fight for her life.

Nami clenched one of her rods in her hand letting out unsteady takes, "Heh... Heh... Success..."

Enel swung his staff again and another lightning strike swooped forward, "That is one interesting weapon!!"

Nami scrambled to throw up her rod and create another lightning force field that would deflect his own, "Shock Bubble!"

"Redirecting the attack with an electric current," Enel spun his staff at his side as if he were charging up, "That is a feat done using great knowledge over weathers."

Faythe felt the air around her shift as her hair started to raise from her shoulders, "Nami...! G-Get-!" She fell forward into another wretched coughing fit.

Enel continued to laugh at the distraught look on the ginger, "Yahahahaha. Unfortunately, that won't work... If I throw a big one that you cannot predict the travel path for!! Isn't that right!!?" The air around the ship buzzed in a static domain, "I am a busy man, so... Farewell!!"

"Nami-!!" Faythe shrieked in panic.

"Eat this! Certain Death... Fire Star!!"

An explosion interrupted the lightning attack as the fire burst into tiny sparks on the God's head.

Everyone glanced over to where the shout came from, and too Nami and Faythe's happy surprise, It was Usopp standing there with a terrified expression as he hid behind his frantic arms from Enel's murderous glare.

"S... Sorry."

"USOPP!!"

"YOU PUSSY!"

"Oi!" Usopp couldn't deny who called him that as he glared at Faythe who was apparently on the ship too. But his glare soon turned into one of utter concern as he took in her state.

Enel turned to the side, "I see you have found your way to the deck."

Usopp glanced around quickly as if looking for something, "Heh... Heh... Where's Sanji!?"
