"Go (Y/n)!" Glancing back to give Luffy a smile, you turned back to Zoro right as he swung down his hatchet, nearly slicing off your arm just as you hopped back in response.

As you did so, Jinbe frowned before calling out a reminder to you, "stop dodging! This training is to help you understand that strength of yours! Try and block Zoro's attacks instead!" Pouting at that, you loosely mumbled nonsense underneath your breath, sweating at the clear grin on the greenie's face.

He was enjoying the hell outta this.

"Uaugh.." turning back to Jinbe with a hesitant moan, the other gave you a blank look, clearly showing he wasn't going to hear any of your complaints.

There was a narrowing of his eyes as he spoke about something with Luffy before the boy left.

'God, I'm gonna die' hissing as Zoro continued to persistently swipe his weapons at you, finally feeling frustrated from the 'no gain' situation, you began to watch the way his arms moved closely, trying to find a pattern or opening to use.

'There!' Darting forwards when the pattern finally came to you, the intention was to rip the hatchet from his arms and convince Jinbe to at last give you a break, but- paling when his grin broadened, the greenie abruptly changed the way his hatchet was swinging and gripped it harshly, "nice try!"

You felt both disappointed and slightly heartbroken as the hatchet caused both of your outstretched arms to go flying off, landing somewhere far away from your peripheral vision on the floor of the dubbed training room just as you landed flat on your ass.

"Zoro!" Both of you flinching at the shout, the greenie began to break out into a sweat as Jinbe leaned over the railings with a disappointed look, "you're supposed to go easy with her! How is (Y/n) supposed to get any better if you keep turning on her at the last minute?!"

Shying away from his scolding, the other teen clicked his tongue and stared into the floor with a scowl, "yeah yeah, I know.." looking back to you, he glanced down at the stumps beginning at your elbows and sighed.

"Here.." bending down to help you up, the other man gave you a half-apologetic expression and rubbed his head awkwardly, "sorry about that, you should have gotten the win that time.."

Smiling at the apology, you raised your stumps halfway, only to remember that your appendages were laying on the other side of the room and settled on softly headbutting him.

"Really, if you hate to lose that much Zoro, then you should have Sanji help her practice instead.." seeing something at the corner of your eye, you smiled seeing Jinbe handing your arms back to you, which you clumsily accepted within your hand-less grasp.

"Eh, that swirly-brows can't hit a woman for shit, besides.." both glancing at you as you struggled to hold onto your arms, the teen eventually caved in and took them from you, securing them both under his arm, "I think she's strong enough to head out, I was going pretty rough with her just now, she did good"

Brightening up at this, you stood up on your tippy-toes and leaned onto the other excitedly, your (E/c) eye shimmering in pride as he struggled to lean away, "ack! (Y/n) don't get so close you'll drool on me!"

Jinbe deflated, taking the arms from Zoro with little protest, "yes that's true, but the whole point of this training is to help her gain a sense of that strength, if (Y/n) were to ever fight another living person instead of a zombie.."

The greenie broke out into laughter, "if anybody tried to pick a fight with her they'd end up running for the hills!" Glancing up at the larger man, you giggled yourself, seeing the pure disdain on his face.

Focusing back on you, the raven haired man began to walk away with a tired look, "come now (Y/n), we better get these arms stitched back on.."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"I can't believe you guys!" Wincing as Chopper continued to nag, you watched indifferently as the doctor meticulously sowed your remaining arm back onto your body, and occasionally he'd fume up with smoke, causing you to snort in amusement.

"Just because you're undead doesn't mean you can just lose limbs whenever you can! This is the third time this month!" Nodding apologetically, you gave the arm a testing flick as he snapped the twine, as usual the appendage didn't feel any different than before it was torn off, and to reassure the younger boy, you gave him a sloppy little jazz hands.

Although instead of loosening up like you hoped he would, the small brunette grabbed one of your hands and inspected it closely, "your fingers seem to be getting better, actually.." blinking in surprise, you raised your hands to your face and wiggled them randomly, eye broadening in elation, you howled excitedly when it finally came over you that you had full control over your fingers again.

"That's great (Y/n)!" Making a string of groaning sounds, Jinbe patted your back with a half-smile, "that's good, that means you should be able to hold a firearm now.." that only made you even more excited, and losing a bit of your common sense as the adrenaline made it to your head, you jumped onto the older man with your jaw snapping sharply in excitement.

"(Y/n)!" Shouting in alarm with how close your mouth was to his neck, the other struck out on reflex and shoved you off, causing you to fall flat on your back on the floor, banging your head in the process with an audible crack.

It.. hurt.

Hearing your head crack onto the floor, you became frozen with shock at the feeling of pain in your head, not just a temporary sting like when your arms came off, but a sharp, lingering stab.

It was the most pain you've felt in a very long time.

"Ah! Sorry (Y/n)! You surprised me.." Jinbe bent over with a guilty look, but the guilt on his face turned into concern when you failed to respond.

Although, it wasn't like you wouldn't respond, it was that you couldn't respond, you were fully capable of responding but you just- couldn't, it felt strange, like you were drifting out of your body.

What was going on?

"(Y/n)..?" Chopper loomed over you with a worried expression, brown doe eyes soon turning frightful as you didn't make any signs of recognition, "Jinbe, I think something's wro-" suddenly they both flinched with horrified gasps, "sh- she's bleeding!"

"(Y/n)!" Finally feeling the urge to move again, you weakly lifted yourself into a sitting position and felt the back of your head, you were slightly unsettled when you felt a slick wetness in your hair and down your neck.

"(Y/n) you shouldn't move- I mean- can- can she even get a concussion? Brain damage?" Turning to Jinbe, feeling unsure, the man was already on the other side of the room flying through the cabinets, "Chopper, I don't know what's happening, but we need to stop the bleeding!"

Nodding to the other, the young boy soon laid you back down with blurry eyes, now looking like he would start sobbing, "(Y- Y/n), i- it's gonna be al- alright, you just gotta lay down o- okay?"

Not liking the panic on his face, you raised a hand and fondled his cheek- only slightly regretful of smearing some of your blood on there, giving him the best smirk you could manage, you fought against the fuzziness.

"Yo guys- oh fuck" hearing Sanji's lazied tone, it quickly turned deeper with seriousness as he rushed next to Chopper and looked over you in alarm, "(Y/n)-chan! What happened?!"

At this point Chopper was now crying, "she- she h- hit her head! I- I don't know- know what to- how to treat a g- ghoul! She's n- never bled before!"

Clicking his tongue swiftly, the blonde ran to where you guessed Jinbe was and joined his search for the bandages, "fuck- where are they?!"

As the two men rushed around the room, your throbbing head slowly began to grow heavier, sounds started to blur, your vision started to fade and your body felt it was in between floating and going numb.

You could see Chopper begin to yell- but you could no longer hear him properly over the ringing of your ears, and as Sanji and Jinbe ran back to you, everything went black.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Waking up, the first thing that bugged you was the hollow, light feeling in your head, then what followed was a weak tender sensation.

It didn't hurt but- it was making you slightly uncomfortable.

Slowly rising up from the cot you were bundled in, you blinked wearily at the door, now becoming aware of the raised voices that probably woke you up.

Shuffling carefully down the hall, you recognized it as the main building and moved towards the mess hall.

"I don't like this idea at all, we could get caught! And then we'd be as good as dead!" Usopp shrieked cowardly, and it was slightly reassuring as it brought a dopey smile onto your face.

"We don't have much of a choice, there's no where else we can go.." Nami groaned exhaustedly, followed by what you assumed to have been Sanji's high-pitched fawning.

"We need bandages! If we had some than (Y/n).. then (Y/n) might have been okay.." Finally making it to the mess hall, you frowned at the main table, seeing Chopper looking downcast.

"Auuw.." moaning to catch the group's attention, they whirled onto you in surprise, "(Y- Y/n)!" Immediately bursting into tears, the tiny brunette began to wail as he rushed over to you, only finding comfort in hugging the life out of your leg.

"(Y/n)! W- We were so worried! There weren't any bandages left- and- and you fell asleep-! And I couldn't tell if you were- were-!" Cuddling the young boy close, you felt a strong grip on your shoulder and turned to Zoro's nervous smirk.

"Oi, it's good to see you up, how's it feel?" You pursed your lips and pulled out your notebook, relieved to see the previous bloodstains have dried.

'I felt kinda hollow-headed when I woke up, but now I'm better again'

Lightly tapping the back of your head in experimentation, you made a soft snort when you weren't met with pain- actually, you felt normal again aside from the slight airiness in your mind.

Hope that wears off too..

"(Y/n)! Y- You're really okay! Thank god!" Returning to address Chopper's wails, you decided to lift the other up and carry him close to your chest, both of your arms were secured on his waist as you took a seat.

"It's good that you're awake again (Y/n).. I'm sorry that happened in the first place.." giving Jinbe a soft moan, you grinned sloppily.

"But even if she's awake and still.. alive, losing all that blood from her head can't be a good thing" glancing at Sanji, you noticed the blonde wasn't looking very well, so, finally being able to take advantage of having full control over your fingers, you leaned in, and gave him a boop on the nose.

"ekh-..ookh!"
