A/N: Please bear with me for a while. My situation is pretty stressful. Anyway, here is yet another vicious plot bunny. I think, eventually, I might need some help with this one, but for now, there is a direction. This will be ZoroxSanji, but it will take a bit to get there. Patience, my loves. Please enjoy.
Blood on the Water
Part One: Quick Hands, Quiet Feet
The night sky above was dark, drawn into a long, endless plane, and littered with sharp diamond stars. The light was cold, if anything, a poor comfort and a treacherous friend. Kuina could remember times when she would profess her love to that sky, resting her head against a strong stomach—corded muscle won through years of dedication and training.
She closed her eyes tight, shivering against the force of the sobs threatening to rack her slight frame. Tears leaked through, gathering about her lashes.
She was young, so young—too young to see the things she had. Her family was cursed, it had to be. For a girl to be forced here, the feel of bandages wrapped tight around her newly-developing breats, binding them down. She struggled to breathe against the burn of tears.
The sight of that warm chest marred and mangled by scars…
Zoro would not give them his back. Never.
Her brother was a swordsman, bound by his own code of honor and determined to fulfill his promises, even if she were the only one to observe them.
It had taken so much of her own will to bite back the screams, rising like bile in her throat.
Scream! Fall! Give in! Oh, 'Noa! They'll stop if you'll only give in…
But, no.
He had faced each torturous assault, eyes open. He had waited, patiently, and he had not screamed.
The captain was forced to stop the punishment.
They needed the green-haired man for his strength. Attempting to break him so far from their destination was a detriment greater to the voyage than the man's insubordination had been to the mate. They were too short on hands to kill him so soon.
No account was taken of the man's younger brother, gasping and quivering at the sight of his beloved brother's suffering.
No, Kuina had not once entered their thoughts.
A sick novelty.
She bit her lip sharply, nearly drawing blood as she recalled her course.
Her footsteps made no sound as she turned from the night sky, creeping slowly into the galley. Food. Zoro had to have some ration, something to sustain him through these injuries.
She needed medicines, too, but those would be far harder to come by. The ship's doctor—if he could be called that, being even worse of a surgeon than he was a carpenter—was a far tighter fist than the man in charge of their food stores. His eye was sharp, and there would be no balms for her brother tonight.
The tiny cabin boy was a hard sight to spot, careful as she was in her quest.
She managed, in short order, to bundle a small loaf of bread (not yet too hard to eat) and a small skein of water under the fabric of her shirt.
If the night's watch had noticed the tiny cabin boy slipping from the kitchen to the brig steps, he made no mention.
The youth had seen his brother tied and tortured, after all.
Although the sight was not uncommon on this ship, the cabin boy and his brother were new hands. Untried and unused to the justices (or, rather, the injustices) of a pirate's vessel.
The elder brother was too high-minded—and his brother?
Far too pretty.
The innocence in those big, bright eyes would not last much longer.
His brother could not protect him from what was to come.
He may try, true, but…
Men could die trying.
A/N: I'm doing my best to have some accuracy, but there will be some changes. Probably most notably in crew structure. Please do be kind.
