Chapter Text
Sanji had woken up with a start, Usually this early in the morning he’d be making the crew breakfast, but obviously he couldn’t since he’s been captured and was currently on a Germa ship. He headed out to the hallway, trying to recollect were the kitchen was when he saw Yonji sleepily walking the opposite direction, he was busy rubbing his eyes so Sanji hoped that he wouldn’t notice his presence because it was way to early for a fight. “Where are you going?” Shit, he could lie but he also remembered how terribly lost he was.
“To the kitchen, not that it’s any of your business.” Yonji laughed loud. “And what kitchen might that be? Cause you’re totally going the wrong way.” Yonji started walking again “Well are you gonna hurry up?” He looked back at Sanji expectingly. “Uhh where are we going?”
Yonji laughed again “The kitchen obviously you idiot.” he walked away leaving Sanji stunned for a second. They walked in silence until they reached a very much larger and renovated kitchen than Sanji remembered.
“The chefs will make anything you ask.” Yonji turned to leave. “No thanks I’d rather make my own food.” Sanji said rolling his sleeves up and making himself a station next to the other chefs. “Whatever just don’t be late, father wants us to be in the lab in an hour.” the lab? Sanji made a face trying to remember where it was, Yonji must’ve noticed because he gave a slightly annoyed look. “I’ll send Reiju after you, so you don’t get lost trying find it.” Sanji looked up from what he was doing and stared. Yonji just mutterd “idiot” and left.
True to his word about 50 minutes after Reiju came into the kitchen to retrieve Sanji, thoughts of this morning came back to him. “Hey Reiju?” Sanji started as they walked down a long hallway. “What is it?” She asked softly. “Umm nothing…it’s just why are we going to the lab?” Memory’s of test as a child floored his mind. “Nothing serious, father wants to check everyone’s vitals before the wedding.”
“Germa must be top shape during such a big event.” Reiju said in a slightly deep voice mimicking Judge. Sanji laughed feeling a bit calmer now. As they entered he saw both Ichiji and Niji were already in seats getting checked over by several doctors and scientists including Judge.
Yonji stood next to Judge seemingly listening to the information, though if you looked hard enough you would see him playing with the end of Judges coat while he was distracted.
Everyone stopped for a second when he and Reiju arrived then quickly went back to work.
“What took you guys so freaking long!?” Yonji exclaimed forgetting he was pretending to listen and accidentally pulling too hard on the end of Judge’s coat making him fall back slightly.
“Yonji quit it” he said waving him off then going back to work.
Yonji approached turning to Reiju “How long is this going to take?” He asked an angry face “Why don’t you ask father?”
He huffed annoyed “I obviously can’t ask him when he’s working dummy.” Reiju laughed, “And you expect me to know….Who’s the dummy me or you?” Yonji made a blank face, probably trying to think of a comeback. “Yonji, Sanji you’re next.” Judge called. Sanji looked at him defiantly. “Or would you like to have an aneurysm at such an event? Don’t you think that would traumatize your bride?”
Sanji doubted he would have an aneurysm but somehow just the thought of Puddings horrified face made him sit and get examined. He spaced out the minute he sat in the chair but loud groans brought him back to the present. “Yonji stop squirming .“ Judge said frustrated. He looked over to see Yonji fighting with some scientists and pushing their hands away.
“This is taking too long , I wanna go!“ Yonji yanked away all the attachments on his body and walked out of the room and leaving Sanji for the second time this morning, stunned.
“We’ll Just take his once he’s asleep” Judge instructed the scientist. “Reiju you’re next” he called and she sat.
They’d been in there for over an hour before Judge said everything seemed fine, he walked around aimlessly for awhile until he he came upon Judges study, the door was slightly open but he could hear familiar voices from inside. “Yonji you idiot you’re gonna get caught” Reiju said in a hushed tone. “I don’t care father probably won’t even notice anyways” Yonji said loudly.Sanji looked into the room to see Yonji rustling around through Judges desk while Reiju sat in the office chair and watched. Reiju turned in the chair, noticing Sanji.
“Oh hey Sanji.” she greeted in a neutral tone. He cautiously walked into the room standing next to Reiju. She turned and the both went to watching Yonji rustle through the desk. “Finally found it!” He exclaimed pulling out what looked like a medium sized safe. “what is that?” Sanji asked curiously. “There are energy enhancing cookies inside the safe , father hides them because Yonji here likes to gorge himself then goes ruining the castle.” Reiju explained. He looked over to see Yonji trying to pry the safe open with his teeth. “Yknow if it’s a safe it probably has a password.” Sanji said. Yonji took the safe from his mouth. “So?” Sanji shared a look with Reiju. “Umm forget it .”
they went back to watching Yonji.
“Yonji!” Everyone in the room froze, “What exactly do you all think you’re doing in here!? This is a place of study not leisure!” Judge shouted. Walking into the room and snatching the box away from Yonji. He put the password in quickly and took 3 cookies from the jar before closing the safe again. Judge shoved a cookie in each of their hands. “Now leave! If I see any of you in my study again there will be consequences!” He pushed them out of the door and slammed it shut. Sanji stood shocked. “What just happened?” Yonji laughed loud and obnoxiously. “We got cookies!” He shoved his cookie in his mouth, then taking Sanjis and breaking half of it and handing him back “his half”. Yonji laughed loudly again then walked away, Sanji just looked down at the cookie in his hand confused.
