Recap:

He eyes the figure closely. It was a boy, with light pink hair, and dark pink eyes, along with a black blazer and white with black stripped shirt. He lets out a few squawks and the male frowns, as if they were communicating.

He groans, face palming lightly. "Is this really the time for introductions?" he asks irritated. "Look it's nice to meet you two Karoo. I saved you because my friend is travelling with you." he pauses yet again.

"My name? It's Mist."

"This is bad....." mutters Zoro who is dragging a dinosaur by the horn. "I must be lost." He and Sanji were still continuing their hunt for the largest prey they could bring back to the ship, and now he was lost in the middle of the forest. To no one's surprise of course.

He then notices Nami leaning against a tree. "Oh, Nami! Great, I was just wondering on how to get back to the ship. However, there's something very off. And before Zoro could process what happened, he lets out a scream.

"AAH A DINOSAUR!! RUN!!" screeched Usopp and Nami as they continued to run through the forest. Nami was panting, tired from running and only becomes worse seeing Usopp speed way ahead of her.

"Hey!" she pants in between words. "You're...running too damn fast!" She hunches over, hands on her knees and tries to catch her breath when she sees Luffy waving to her. "Oh, Luffy! Thank goodness!" when he says nothing however, she becomes worried. "Luffy...?"

Nami lets out a scream as something behind her attacks her. Usopp hears this in the distance and stops running in position. He turns around and gasps in fear seeing Nami wasn't behind him anymore.

"N-Nami?" he squeaks. He looks around and once he's met with the silence of the forest, his whole body starts to shake. "T-This is not good...... LUUUUUFFFYYY!!! YYYY/NNNN!!!" he screams, running out like crazy in the forest, desperately searching for the two of you.

"LUFFY! Y/N!! LUFFY! Y/N!! LUFFY! Y/N!!" he screams over and over again, and one last time as he makes it out of the forest, and runs directly into a rock, before bouncing off it and sliding down and hitting the ground in front of you, Vivi, and Luffy.

He gasps, sitting up immediately seeing the two of you. "LUFFY! Y/N! BAD NEWS!! A DINOSAUR ATE NAMI!!" he cries. Luffy shoots straight up, his eyes wide in panic. "SERIOUSLY?!"

"We were running through the forest to get rid of it, then suddenly she was gone!!" he whimpers. "What have I done?! I got my friend killed!!" Luffy started slamming his fist down and the two are sobbing.

"SHUT UP!!!" you yell smacking both of their heads, and silencing them. Vivi shudders, backing away slightly. You take a deep breath. "Listen! If Nami just disappeared, it means you don't know for sure! And I know for a fact you were too afraid to look!!"

"C-correct!" Usopp stutters, proud to admit it at first before realizing the insult behind it. "S-still! If it wasn't a dinosaur then it was some other wild beast!!" Vivi shakes her head. "If there are Baroque Works agents on the island, then it makes sense why they went after Nami and not you."

You nod. "Yeah. Usopp wasn't on their hit list so he's safe. Plus, that alcohol could've been for us." Usopp looks at you in surprise at this. "Alcohol? What about the alcohol?!"

You grimace, "When Broggy-san gave it to Dorry-san, it exploded in his stomach when he drank." Usopp gasps. "WHAT?! It exploded in his stomach?! You're saying he went to the battlefield all beat up?!"

"I tried to stop him, but ended up like this!" Luffy gestures to the large rock. "B-but those guys have been fighting for 100 years! It's their most prideful battle of all!" Usopp says now becoming angry at this. "They can't settle their fight now!!"
