Captain's Parrot (Oc x One Piece) Book 2

Cerberus!? Wait Nevermind.//Chapter 74

"Well... We've been patient , but there's no choice." Wyper huffed.

Sanji stood beside the shandorian, looking out from where they all stood, "There's no way this ship can get away from this giant spider web."

Zoro was for some reason still on the boat—prolonging the inevitable, "Even the skeleton guy's ghost ship... also the mini Merry... Where Usopp, Nami, and Chopper should have come back... Everything is in the spider web..." He glanced up and started taking in the absolute large thickness of each silk thread in the web, "Conveniently the entrance to the island is inviting us. Right at our front... I can almost see the ghosts beckoning me."

"Oh noooo... Guess we have no choice but to explore the dark, scary and maybe perilous journey onto the spooky island full of secrets and monsters...!!" Faythe twirled around and started skipping towards the most suspicious entry way between the walls. The rickety old theatre-like sign—'Thriller Bark'—was near tilting over threadbare.

Franky grabbed hold of the back of Faythe's cardigan, "If I didn't know any better, it sounds like you wish to go and find the monsters and shake hands with them."

Faythe glared up at the cyborg with a pout, "It worked well with Mr. Brook. I don't see any other problem with that."

"Yeah, the same guy who warned us to leave the same very island out of pure caution." Franky frowned as he watched Faythe squirm in his hold.

"And that same guy, is on this island—our new crewmate, may I add." Faythe grinned.

Franky only sighed in defeat and dropped her. Earning him a small yelp and little kick of retaliation from the redhead—it did nothing.

Luffy nodded, "Yeah, anyways, Zoro sure is being stupid right now..." He then waved his hands over at his Vice-Captain, "What are you jabbering about, Zoro!? You're coming too!!"

Robin stifled a giggle, while Wyper covered his muffling with his wings hovering over his face.

"To the oogie boogies we go!!" Faythe cheered as she dashed through the entrance.

"—Ah!" Luffy stretched his arm back and grabbed Zoro by his shirt collar in a hurry, "Don't get a head start, Fae!!"

"HUEGH—!" Zoro let out a choked muffle as he was slammed into Wyper. Both collided into Franky unfortunately. Robin only stepped out of the way with a smile and followed after the bundles of endless joy and energy.

Sanji clapped his hands, "Hurry up lads, don't wanna fall behind. Those two are definitely gonna get themselves into something." He put a pep in his step and steadied into a pace with Robin.

As the group found their composure, they started traveling downward a steep stone staircase the walls narrowed around them with overgrown vines and moss.

Faythe was skipping with a happy pep as she had her fingertips skimming against the rough surface of the walls as she passed, "You think we'll find more dead people?" She turned to Luffy who was keeping up as he hummed a happy tune. Probably made up.

"Hm? Probably. I just wanna see how much a ghost can eat or see if it can poop." Luffy laughed, tapping the net against his shoulder in thought.

"Of course you would." Faythe nudged an elbow into his side playfully.

Luffy's eyes zeroed back to the front, and landed on something strange, "Geh! There's something at the end...!" He hurried his pace with Faythe smiling behind him.

The redhead took in its strange features. A strange creature that has three heads but shares one body. Two of the three were of the same breed dog—the last was of a stitched up fox with a bandaged eye. All of the heads wore red spiked collars—as if they had an owner. Underneath its large paws was a mound of piled bones, most likely the victims of said beast.
