It was a cloudy humid day in the vast jungle. Nico Robin was out exploring the area of the island covered in forest while everyone else was in town. She was searching for the mystic Poneglyph of the island, hoping to get the next clue to the Rio Poneglyph.
She walked on, having no luck in finding any sort of clue to the Poneglyph when she came upon a clearing. it was a small clearing and it looked as if the most healthy and lushious grass grew there, but there was not a single tree or flower in the area. Robin stood there, wondering how this could be so when she heard the faintest rustleing sound to her left. She quickly spun around and prepared to defend herself, but all she found was a small bush, with a tiny hole in it. She started to become less alert when two colored circles produced themselves out of no where, one right next to the other, and then they grew and disapeared. Robin knew not what to think, but she had been facinated by the circles. She started to move closer to the bush after waiting to see if the circles would come back, but then she saw the grass shift ever so slightly to her left. She whipped around and used her Hana Hana No Mi powers to grasp the long, slender shape she saw moving in the grass. She then found herself looking face to face at a snake, about 20 feet long and 1 foot around. She stared at the snake, not knowing weather it had any intention to harm her, but before she could make up her mind, the snake spoke.
