onepieceyaoi100Title: Water turns to Ice (I have such lame, lame titles.)
Word Count: 298
Rating: PG
Pairing: Usopp/Chopper
Topic: Wet
AN: Not happy.
It was a blast from one of the Marine fleet that had them surrounded, that Luffy hadn’t been able to rebound in time. It’d struck Merry straight through the main deck; the resulting force had nearly taken apart the entire ship and sent everybody overboard. After that, his memory seemed to just blur into a haze of panicked shouting, gunfire, and too much frigid sea water; he vaguely remembered seeing Sanji hauling the unconscious captain up by his red vest, and Robin draped limply across Zoro’s back as Nami yelled for them to follow her, right before another hit came between them. The consequential explosion had tossed up waves so high and volatile that Usopp found himself a good fifty feet away from the original wreckage when he once more regained his bearings.
He wasn’t entirely sure how he’d found Chopper. What he knew was that the little doctor had been in the ocean for too long – the freezing water, the way it had been retained in his thick coat, and the curse of the devil fruit combined had given him a crewmate that was badly stricken with hypothermia. Even now, laid out across the dry sand, wrapped in several pieces of the sniper’s dried clothing as a small fire cackled nearby, the unconscious reindeer continued to shiver uncontrollably, his breaths coming in short, weak pants, eyes tightly shut as he struggled to keep alive.
Usopp, nearly naked and shivering himself, pressed his body tighter against the other’s in a desperate attempt to contribute his warmth. He was scared, alone, and he didn’t know what to do, but damn if he was going to watch his best friend die in front of him.
He laughed hysterically, and found himself repeating the reindeer’s usual outbursts. “We need a doctor.”
