Chapter 5: HE'S HERE!!!

= Weeks Later =

"Rin can you help me run an errand?" ask Makino to Rin.

"Sure! What's the errand." Rin said answering Makino's request while serving the foods to the customer.

"Please send this food to the mayor."Makino says stating what's the errand is.

"The mayor?" Thought Rin knows who the mayor of Windmill Village is, she doesn't know where the mayor lives. She never really got out of the bar after arriving at this village so she haven't explored the village yet.

"Oh right!! You haven't been given a tour around the village." Makino said. "As much as I would like to give you a tour, someone needs to be at the bar." She said while preparing the food. "Hmm. . ."Makino wants Rin to take a tour around the village to get use to life around here. "Ah!" suddenly she thought of an idea. "Luffy can you give a tour around the village to Rin." Makino said to Luffy who is eating a lot of meat dishes.

"Hm... sure-" Luffy wants to agree with Makino's request but was cut short by Rin.

"Ah! Makino there's no need for that, I'm sure I can find the mayor's house by asking around." said Rin. ' Thought I want to get a tour around the village it's almost a month now and who knows when Shanks might come... I can't mess with this world's plots that might change the future.' Rin thinks in her mind.

"Are you sure?" Makino ask in a worried tone.

"Yeah!!" Rin said with a smile.

Rin went outside of the bar to send the food to the Mayor / Wood Slap. She ask the people around the village to find the direction of the Mayor's house. After asking a few people Rin manage to find the mayor's house.

*knock* *knock*

After Rin knocked the door a few times, an old man wearing a yellow shirt and a red and white striped hat and pants came out of the door. The old man have a weird double chin which confirm he is the Mayor Wood Slap from the anime.

"Hello sir! I'm here to send food to the Mayor, are you him by any chance?" Rin ask pretending to not know who he is.

"Yes I'm the Mayor. You must be the kid waitress who is working at Makino's bar. Thank you for delivering my food." said the Mayor while taking the food.

"Your welcome!!" After Rin said that she turn started to walk in the direction of the bar.

After a couple of minutes Rin arrives at Makino's bar. "I'm back!!" said Rin as she opens the bar's door.

"Rin!!" Makino's scream.

Makino's sudden scream shocked Rin who is entering the bar. When she look ahead she immediately understood the reason.

"Shanks..."Rin said under her breath. "He's here... he's really here..." Rin mumbles to herself. She almost smile by the fact that the start of the anime is nearing. Taking a deep breath she started walking between them to go to Makino.

"STOP RIN!! DON'T!!! THESE GUYS ARE PIRATES!!!" Makino screams with a worried face.

"Um..." Shanks was trying to say something to clear up the misunderstanding.

"Makino it's okay... not all pirates is a evil merciless criminals, plus they might just came for foods and drinks." Rin said as she walk closer to Makino.

Not just Makino but everyone including Shanks is shocked by Rin's reaction.

"Um... you may not believe it but she's kinda right. We just wants to resupply our ship and have some meals... and maybe stay for a few days at the village." Shanks says while trying to clear up the misunderstanding that is happening.

"U-uh I... I understand, and... um I'm sorry for misunderstanding." Makino said to apologise for jumping to conclusions. "T-then what would you like to order." Makino ask.
