Well, and because I'm so very nice (^^ "), part 13 is coming soon.
Let's see if the number 13 is really such an unlucky number ...
In any case, it goes on now!

"Has she still not said anything?" Akiko asked annoyed and Nami only shook her head in response. "Great! I don't feel like sitting around here for ages just because she doesn't think it's necessary to talk to us."
"However, we will have nothing else to do until the lock port has leveled out again."
"That's right, I completely forgot!", She sighed and scratched her head.
In the meantime the crew had gone back to the Flying Lamb and waited there for the lock port to be set up and for Cathrin to open her mouth.
Akiko took a closer look at the surprise guest. She really couldn't be here for too long! Her clothes were bought almost like new. She had black hair covered with a bluish shimmer, which she tucked up under a hair towel.She also wore three earrings on each ear, a wine-red long-sleeved figure-hugging shirt and jeans hot pants.
"What are you staring at me like that?", Cathrin asked her when Akiko noticed her looks. "If there is something about me that bothers you, tell me!" Akiko had to pull himself together not to start screaming straight away.
"My dear Cathrin," she began and walked over to her. "I don't think you are in the appropriate position to comment. We are pirates, and pirates can be pretty ruthless!"
"Strange gang!"
"I warn you, one more word-"
"And you make me cold! Blah blah blah!"
"Cathrin !!", Akiko yelled at her angrily, but she just covered her ears and stuck out her tongue.
Zorro pushed Akiko aside and stood in front of Cathrin.
"I don't like to admit it, but she's right. If I were you, I'd finally come out with the truth!" Silence.
"All right.", Cathrin sighed. Akiko sat down, amazed by Zorro's success with this stubborn little head."But first I want to eat something!"
And a few minutes later she was sitting with the others in the conference room and Sanji served her a menu à la Powerschub.
"Hey, I haven't eaten anything like that in a long time! Awesome! Delicious! Simply perfect!", Enthused Cathrin, her eyes really shining.
"The little one must not have eaten for days!", Sanji said to Akiko with a satisfied smile.
"How to take it.", She only replied and waited until Cathrin was finished. She looked around and knew that she could not hold out any longer.
"First of all, thanks for the food! I think if I had starved any longer, then there would be nothing left of me! That was really tasty, uh ..."
"Sanji!" He introduced himself and she nodded.
“Great job, Sanji!” Akiko gave her a look that immediately made her talk. "Okay okay! Well ... I really don't know how I got here. Really not! I don't know what kind of island this is either, you have to believe me !!""And why should we?" Akiko asked skeptically.
"Because I want to get out of here !! Back home!", Cathrin shouted angrily and jumped up. "I want to go back to my family and friends !!" Akiko looked at Nami and the others, and before she could say anything, Luffy did it for her.
"No problem! We'll take you there !!" Akiko smiled at Cathrin's astonished look.
"Well, then I'll have to get along with you for a long time, or do you have something against pirates?" She shook her head vigorously.
"I don't care. As long as I get out of here."
"Then we just have to clarify where to go?", Nami said and spread out a map. Cathrin looked at them briefly and then pointed to a small group of islands.
"The Kibo Islands," she explained. Nami nodded.
"Okay, where are we ??" silence.
"This island on which we are is not shown," said Robin after a short time. "She is actually completely unknown."“And how do you know about it then?” She held a book in front of Nami's nose.
"This island has not yet been explored because of some rumors."
"May I ask which ones ?!"
"Clear." Robin opened her book. "For example, that many have sailed past here but never returned.", She read aloud. "Or that this island is ruled by fear and fear. According to another rumor-"
"The fear seems pretty familiar to me.", Akiko interrupted. "Read a little more!"
"Well, as I said, this island should be ruled by fear and fear. Whoever goes ashore here, their worst fears and nightmares will come true. The causes of this phenomenon are not known. That is why it is called the 'island of fears'.
"Original name!" Pouted Akiko. "I actually hoped for more!"
"I have to disappoint you as you can see!" Smiled Robin.
"So we have to wait until the lock port has leveled off!That can only take a while! "
Akiko got up and went outside. “We have nothing else to do!” She looked at the sea. "If only we could finally go on! Oh menno!"
“What are you so angry about?” Zorro had joined her unnoticed.
"You're really number one when it comes to sneaking!", Akiko replied and crossed her arms. "Why aren't you with the others?"
“Do you want a fight?” She didn't answer. "Akiko, are you okay?"
"What ?! Can't I shut up?" Annoyed, she turned away.
"Would you rather tell me what's wrong with you !?"
"Nothing, just leave me alone, okay?"
"Only when you tell me why you behave like that!"
"Zorro ... I don't want to argue now!" She looked into his eyes and Zorro noticed that it really didn't make any sense to argue anything.
Akiko turned away from him and at that moment Nami came out.
"Guys, we can go on!", She shouted relieved and Akiko nodded.
"It was quick."
"I would have preferred if we could have gone on straight away!"It was evening now. Nami, Robin and Akiko pored over the nautical charts ("Where are we?"
Cathrin paced up and down. Then she noticed Zorro's swords lying next to him. She crept cautiously and was about to grab Kuina's sword when Zorro hit her hand.
"Ouch! What's that supposed to be?" She wailed.
"Now get yourself back in! Besides, I didn't allow you to touch them!" Cathrin smiled.
"I can sure? Thank you!", She said and took Kuina's sword
"Hey, are you crazy? That's valuable!", Zorro excited.
"A Wado-Ichi-Monji. Actually has a sharp blade. It would have to be sharpened again, otherwise you won't even be able to cut vegetables with it!" Akiko, Nami and Robin had also come back on deck and had this little lecture notice."You seem to know your way around?"
"Sure!", Said Cathrin, as if that were the most natural thing in the world. "After all, my family has been making swords for generations. The other one is a third generation Kitetsu, isn't it? And the third one a Yubashili." Zorro nodded in amazement. "I can tell you a whole lot more about it!"
"What we don't want to hear!", Akiko replied and stood between Zorro and Cathrin.
“What's that supposed to be?” Akiko turned to her.
"Small security measure."
"Are you jealous?"
“Never in my life!” The two glared at each other.
"Hey guys, are we going to do it again today?", Luffy asked, relieving any tension between Akiko and Cathrin.
"Oh yes!", The latter shouted and clapped her hands. "I just hope that you have a lot of stuff there? Ouch!" Akiko gave her a headbutt.
"Forget it my dear! You are not even eighteen years old! You are guaranteed no- Hey Luffy, what is that supposed to mean ??", she yelled at the captain when she saw that he first poured Cathrin a good sip of beer.
"Oh, leave her! Nothing can happen!", He laughed.
"Yes, yes. Just alcohol poisoning!"
"And if Chopper is still there!"
"If it's not all the way up like last time!"
"Now don't be so squeamish!", Cathrin intervened as well. "How old were you when you drank alcohol for the first time?"
"W-what kind of question is that?", Akiko countered. "It doesn't matter now! I mean ..." She looked into the faces of the others and knew that she was making herself a clown. "It's good! But only one sip!"
Well, of course it didn't stop there. Finally it was more than late and the friends went to bed with the exception of Akiko and Robin, the latter having barricaded herself in the lookout and reading a little and watching the stars.
Akiko couldn't sleep and stood at the railing, also looking at the sky.Suddenly she noticed someone slinking around. She turned around and saw Cathrin clutching a pillow and grinning at her (Caught!).
"Where are you going?" She asked skeptically.
"Uh ... gasp ..." Cathrin lied.
"With a pillow?" Cathrin nodded. Although she felt more than stupid. It's logical that you don't take a pillow with you to catch your breath!
"I'll be gone then!", She said quickly and wanted to run away, but Akiko was quicker and stood in front of her.
“The way to the girls' room is a long way!” Cathrin apologized and took a few steps. Then, when Akiko turned around, she tried again and snuck back. "You are not going to Zorro !!"
Cathrin hadn't expected that: Akiko had simply grabbed her by the collar and dragged her back into Nami's room. She was so buffed that she stopped making a sound.
Akiko went back outside. "Man, just trouble with the brat!"
"I think the little one ate quite a fool of our dear Zorro!"Robin stood next to her and was smiling.
"Zorro is way too old for her.", Akiko replied.
"There are only four years in between."
"They have nothing in common."
"Well, she's pretty good at swords."
"She's a newbie !!"
"You do not know that."
"Cathrin is totally childish!"
"Not more than Luffy either."
"Zorro is not interested in her !!" Akiko's voice grew louder.
"It's okay. You won!" Robin closed his eyes. "That was also clear to me."
"And what's the point then ??", Akiko excited.
"Why don't you just let them have their experiences?" Asked Robin as a counter-question.
"Because there is nothing to be found out there!" Replied her counterpart and stared stubbornly into the night.
“Are you afraid that someone will take Zorro away from you?” Akiko looked at Robin in horror.
"Total bullshit !!" she protested. "Why should I ?!
