The coming tempest

Previous Chapter

"Hey you ruined my meal!" Luffy shouted at the unicorn that was towering above him like a lion about to eat it's prey.

The unicorn grabbed Luffy by the vest and brought him up to her face. "You are going to make me a lot a of money." She said giving a sinister smile.

"Tempest?" Twilight asked looking at the bounty hunter in shock.

The unicorn's eyes widened, and her ears dropped "Princess Twilight!?" She said dropping Luffy. "What are you doing-"

"GUM GUM-"

"No Luffy wait!" Twilight yelled, but it was too late.

"-BAZOOKA" Luffy screamed, his arms shooting out and hitting Tempest in the chest sending her flying. However Tempest pushed her legs down skirting to a halt, knocking over a few tables in the process. The tavern went quiet as the bounty hunter recovered. The unicorn slowly raised her head and spat, Luffy meanwhile adjusted his hat.

Twilight looked on in fear realizing what was about to happen. "Oh no...."

Tempest's broken horn began to spark, until a dark green orb began to float in front of her.

"Ah... what happened?" Franky said cracking his neck.

"I WAS trying to tell you guys someone was coming towards us!" Nami cried.

"W-who was that?" Usopp stuttered, slowly rising from the floor.

"WATCH OUT!!!" Twilight screamed, her horn glowing with purple magic.
Suddenly, the group were enveloped in a a purple dome that shielded them from the on coming orb that crashed against the shield.

Chopper moved one of his hooves from his eyes. "Incredible!" He said amazed.

"What is this?" Franky mumbled to himself, touching the walls of the dome he was in.

"Where's Twilight!?" Nami Asked looking around frantically.

The dome suddenly disappeared as Twilight fell to her knees coughing. Hands popped out of the ground in front of Twilight, before she fell to the floor.

"TWILIGHT!!!" Chopper screamed as he ran towards the passed out alicorn.

"What's wrong chopper?" Usopp asked.

Robin was feeling Twilight's forehead, as the alicorn Princess gave short raspy breaths as she breathed.
Chopper was on Twilight's chest, listening to her heartbeat. "We need to get her out of here." The reindeer said transforming into a more humanoid form that resembled a bigfoot. Carefully he carried Twilight in his arms, "Luffy we need to-"

"GUM GUM-PISTOL!!!" Luffy screamed shooting his arm forward towards the armored unicorn. However said unicorn grabbed Luffy's arm just as she dodged out of the way. Luffy struggled to pull his arm away but it was no use, Tempest used Luffy's arm to swing him across the room and causing him to crash into the nearby bar.

(The restaurant goers took this as their cue to leave.)

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!!!!???" Chopper screamed.

"Chopper..." Robin said putting a hand on Chopper's shoulder. "...We should focus on getting Twilight out of here."

"She's right we should go..." Nami said grabbing Chopper's hand.

Chopper nodded, however his eyes lit up as he remembered something. "Where's Sanji?"

As if on cue a man dressed in a apron, and chef's hat, went flying out of the kitchen crashing onto a nearby table.
"Thanks for your time..." Sanji said walking out of the kitchen, lighting a cigarette on the way out.

"SANJI WE NEED TO GO!!!" Chopper screamed, clutching Twilight like a baby.

"Huh why?"

Sanji braced himself as something crashed nearby, it was Luffy, who was bruised and bleeding from his nose.

"Alright who-" Sanji's heart leapt to his throat as he turned to see his captain's attacker, but all he saw was a GODDESS. Her green eyes sparkled like gems, her red hair was as beautiful as a rose, her thighs could crush diamonds, oh yeah she had pretty great rack as well.

"Am I dreaming?" Sanji mumbled, not noticing her pulling out two daggers from her sleaves.

"WEAPONS LEFT!!!" A huge explosion rang out near the bounty hunter, causing dust to fly everywhere and for Tempest to disappear in the dust cloud. "That was close..." Franky said as his hand going back to normal.

"Thank goodness for-" Before Franky could finish his sentence, Sanji kicked him in the shins. "OW what the hell was that for!?" Franky hissed jumping up and down holding his left leg.

"YOU COULD HAVE YOU KILLED HER!!!" Sanji screamed.

"Wha-" Franky stuttered.

"WHAT DID SHE EVER DO TO YOU BIKINI WEARING PREVERT!!!!" Sanji was screaming so hard his face was turning red.

"SHE TRIED TO KILL YOU DUMBASS!!!!" Franky angerly screamed back at the lovesick cook.

Tempest leapt out of the dust cloud, causing both men to stop arguing seeing the bounty hunter flying towards them, daggers at the ready.

"egg-star!!!"

Tempest was suddenly hit in the face with a raw egg, causing her to close her eyes as yok dripped off her face, and for her to loose her balance crashing onto the floor right on her face. Usopp then grabbed his two crewmates by the collar and ran out the door, practically dragging them behind himself.

The red haired unicorn slowly got up, growling as she wiped the egg on her face. "Do you think I'll just let you get away-"

"GUM-GUM-"

Tempest spun around to see Luffy back on his feet, his arms stretched and curled behind him.

"-GATLING!!!"

Tempest raised her daggers to attack the wounded pirate, however she reacted too late as she was pelted by Luffy's fists in almost every direction, making her fly out of the tavern and crashing into a nearby fountain.

"Jeez." Luffy sighed stepping out of the tavern and adjusting his hat. "That was tough."

A small crowd began to surround the victorious pirates. "They just knocked out Tempest Shadow..." one person whispered in complete awe. More gasps and whispers soon followed as they watched the Straw Hat captain slowly walk out of the tavern, cracking his neck as he stopped just in front of the fountain. Where Tempest was knocked out and getting soaked.

"Oi Luffy!" Nami called out waving one of her arms in the air. Next to her was Chopper who was holding a unconscious Twilight, Usopp and Franky were next to him looking amazed, and Robin was trying to consul Sanji who was absolutely beside himself.

"Oh hey guys what's going on?" Luffy asked smiling.

"Twilight passed out!" Chopper said.

"What?!" Luffy shouted completely shocked. "Why didn't you guys tell me?"

"WE DID!!!" The group (aside from a giggling Robin) screamed at the same time.

"Oh this is where you guys were." Zoro said walking out of the crowd.

"Hey Zoro!" Luffy called out, waving at the swordsman. "You missed dinner."

"Yeah sorry about that..." Zoro said scratching the back off his neck. Zoro looked over to Sanji, who was hugging Robin while sobbing. "Jeez what happened to you?"

"BUZZ OFF!!!" Sanji yelled at the swordsman, in-between sobs.

"Just asking, sheesh." Zoro angerly mumbled to himself, while he walked over to where Luffy was standing.

"So who was that?" Zoro asked looking at the bounty hunter who was leaning against the base of the fountain, her head being tilted downwards hiding her face.

"Dunno." Luffy said bluntly, tilting his head in thought "But she was tough."

Zoro looked at the knocked out Tempest. "is she some kind of bounty hunter?" Zoro questioned.

Suddenly, Tempest threw a dagger that nearly grazed the now shocked swordsman. "Correct.... Roronoa Zoro." She cooed as she slowly rose, water dripping off her dented armor. "...Former pirate hunter." Tempest growled, wiping blood from her mouth.
