The Pirate Life (Chapter 27)
“You can take it here! ", she was happy, it was a hotel, there was a real kitchen and beds on the upper floor.
"Then I'll go to the pharmacy over there and have a look! ", said Charlie," we need real bandages, I left my bag on the ship! "
"I'll come with you," the little elk called immediately, he also needed new medicine and bandages, and he had never broken into anything before.
,,Well!"
Zorro pulled Luffy into the hotel and put his captain down in a corner. Mia sat down on the floor too, not taking any of the numerous chairs in the hotel. Daro placed himself right next to her and laid his head on her lap.
,, Well what do you want to eat? ", Sanji asked everyone, everyone wanted something different," well, no problem! "
,,I'll help you! ", Natasha called and followed Sanji, who was not at all averse. Zorro sat down on a chair:
“Where is that loudmouth anyway?", he wanted to know from Jack.
“Jacqueline is upstairs, she said she was looking for something! "answered Jack," does anyone want to play with cards? "
,,Yes! ", announced Dorothee and Nash in the choir, Nami and Vivi also joined them.
,, With commitment? ", Gina wanted to know.
,,Depends on!"
"Then I'll take part!" She took a chair and sat down.
“Where is Usop the pop-bag? ", Zorro wanted to know.
“It's in the general store next door, Anna went with me! ", Mia answered him
“I didn't even know that you were already a mother! ", Nami intervened with a laugh," You're still so young! "
"I'm not her mother, she just keeps saying that!"
"Then you shouldn't have saved the little girl's ass," said Nash and put down a card, "It's your own fault, the little girl adores you now!"
,,Yes / Yes! "Mia growled.
,, Won, how lucky I am! ", Gina collected the money," all mine! "
“Rub it under our noses!", Jack grumbled and dealt the cards again," will you play another round? "
,, No, afterwards I'll still lose, no thanks! ", Gina put away her money," what a successful day! ", She laughed.
Charlie and Chopper came in.
“Robbing a pharmacy like this is fun! ", Chopper laughed," not a single guy who talks you in there! "
,, Yes, but totally, they are always annoying! ", Charlie agreed, he kneeled down in front of Mia:" Let's see! "
,,See something?"
"The broken ribs, you just moved so strangely, let me deal with that quickly, okay ?!"
"All right ... but woe to you, you're dead!"
,, It is recovered! ", he grinned at her, he carefully felt her stomach, straightened the ribs again and bandaged the whole thing afterwards:
“You see, it didn't hurt at all! "he laughed and hit it!
,, You are a damn pig! ", Mia swore and jumped up.
,,I know! "laughed Charlie and jumped back so Mia couldn't hit him."You pay me for that! ", she threatened him and tried to hit him again and again, but suddenly he held her arm and hit the bandage very lightly. Mia groaned.
“Don't always be so brutal! ", Charlie instructed her, let go of her arm and began to feel sore:
"Where's Jacqueline?"
,, Well, upstairs, you're the second to ask! "said Dorothee.
“Why upstairs, we just met her outside, but I thought she'd be back a long time ago! Or chopper! "
"Yes, she had some bottles with her and suckled on them!"
,, The minibar, every hotel has a minibar! ", Zorro grumbled and tried to" hopefully she left something. "
,,Hardly likely! "came the chorus of Jacqueline's team.
"We have to stop her, otherwise she'll drink up all the pubs in the area," said Jack, slamming his cards on the table.
“Oh man, I almost won! ", Nami grumbled, but put her cards aside as well.“We've had so much trouble here now, and then you can't even get really drunk because Jacqueline is clearing the shops! ", Nash hissed," so come on, you come with us and you too! "She said Zorro, Nami and Vivi, they had nothing better to do anyway, so they went with me. When storming out they collided with Usopp and Anna, Usopp was dragged along, Anna went into the hotel:
“Where are they all going, mom? ", Anna wanted to know and crouched down next to Daro to stroke him.
“I'm not your mom! ", Mia just said. She was sitting against the wall again.
,,Are you mad at me? ", Anna looked at her sadly, Mia couldn't stand that look:
"No, I'm not, don't you want to go to Natasha and Sanji in the kitchen, maybe they'll let you nibble!"
"Oh yes, I'll do that! ", laughed the little girl and started walking around the counter to the swinging door that led to the kitchen.
The room was quiet, you could only hear the steady breathing of Luffy and Daro, who was lying next to her, from time to time a clink could be heard from the kitchen, but it was mostly quiet there, the two were very good cooks, that proved already the volume.Mia scratched Daro behind the ear, that's what he liked best, how much she loved him, she had missed the little one every day, he had always been with her since she was a child, if he hadn't been there, she would have been too, like her mother was ruined by the grief for her father. She was angry with herself, how could she believe that Blue was releasing Luffy from his illusion that she should have known beforehand that one shouldn't take his word for it, she was so angry about her beginner's mistake as she had That could happen, but now it was of no use anyway, at least this guy couldn't leave the island, because the island, which was described in her father's letter, had been renamed by the world government years ago, there was not a single Eternalport more, for "Brats". That was her trump card, they wouldn't leave before tomorrow morning anyway, so she could rest, but then she had to leave before the others noticed, there was no other way, she couldn't allow him to get away now that she finally had him, could finally make him atone for what he had done.That was the reason why she was still alive, her goal in life, she had to achieve it, it didn't matter what came next. The main thing is that she would finally get her revenge.

“This is a real life! ", Usopp laughed and emptied his cup in one go," That is how pirate life should always be! "
,, Sure, but not every day you find an empty city where you can take everything you want! ", said Nash and put the fork in his mouth.
"Ha, you don't even know what I've already experienced, for example, when I came to an island with my 400 husbands, people begged us to steal everything, for them it was a real joy!" "wrote Usopp.
,,Really! ", marveled Nash.
,, And why is there none of these 400 men here ?! ", came it pointedly from Jacqueline.
"Uh", Usopp was looking for a solution, "because I was practically begged by Luffy to join his team, so I thought I would try the life of a simple member and let my people stand!"“I wouldn't be satisfied with the position of a simple member if I had previously been the captain of such a large team! "said Nash.
"That's right, but when Luffy scratches it off, I'm the captain", laughed Usopp, "I'm Luffy's vice, nothing works without me!"
,, Mia who is your vice with us? ", Dorothee wanted to know.
“Charlie! ", Mia answered immediately, she was still sitting on the floor and didn't want to join the group at the tables.
“Why Charlie, of all people, I could do it much better than him! "complained Natasha.
"If you want to be the runner-up, go for it!"
"Yes, beat yourself up with me, we can fight it out by arm wrestling! ", Charlie grinned and willingly held out his arm to her.
,, No thanks, I once read that you can break your arms! ", waved Natasha off," I think being vice would be too much responsibility for me! "
“Does everyone like it? ", Sanji asked and put another course of food on the table.,,Delicious! "Vivi answered.
,,Not really! ", Zorro grumbled.
“If you don't like it, we can take care of it outside! ", Sanji hissed at him.
,,With pleasure!"
,, Guys dominate yourselves! ", Nami admonished the two and then turned back to Natasha, with whom she got along very well.
"Jacqueline don't you think you have drunk enough! ", Jack wanted to know from her.
"Not a bit, I could drink forever!"
“Are you going to do the trick with the schnapps again? ", begged Dorothee.
“What trick? "Usopp wanted to know.
"That's really cool, please come Jacqueline!"
"All right, so Gina will you give me a hand?"
“Always! ", laughed Gina and jumped on the counter and took out some schnapps glasses to put them on the counter. Then she dug out one of the liquor bottles that they had brought in that afternoon.
Jacqueline drew her sword, Gina stood on the platform on which the sink was attached and held up the bottle:"But woe betide you chop up my arm!"
"If I make a mistake, you are welcome to complain!"
,,Great! "Jacqueline only held her sword in her left hand and put it to the bottle. Then she took her sword out only slightly, hardly anyone could see how the sword cut through the glass, the schnapps fell, Jacqueline whizzed with the sword through the schnapps, still falling, it began to split up into small piles and landed in the right glasses, the glass fell on the floor.
"Anyone who wants to can drink it! ", she explained, took a glass and emptied it in one go:" I love alcohol! "
“That was quick! ", Sanji amazed," where did you learn that? "
“With my big brother! "said Jacqueline," he was even more skillful and didn't even have to go back! "
"What's his name ?! ", Zorro wanted to know, maybe he was known.
"His name was Henry, he wasn't that well known!"
,, Why was it? "Nami wanted to know.“He died in the civil war! It was an unpleasant thing! "She sat down on a chair and took another schnapps," Nobody wants one? ... what is Mia! "
“I'll bring the little one up! ", she meant Anna, who was lying with Daro and was already asleep.
,,How you mean! "Mia picked up the little one and disappeared into a corridor that led to the rooms, she couldn't take it
