It had been days since Xenox had not only gotten himself into a pile of trouble, but since he had found that odd looking fruit and consumed it. It had turned out to be a devil fruit, and getting used to the powers did not come easy to him. However he had also been without coin or food, which was getting worse as every hour ticked by. Was this it for him? Was he going to finally kick the bucket here in the slums of nowhere? He didn't get much of a chance to actually contemplate this thought before he finally fell down in an alleyway and went completely unconscious without any food, he was certain he'd die. However in the deprived state of his mind he was fading into and out of consciousness, Xenox was positive he was dreaming as a large and.....furry? Creature lifted him up and began carrying him off, he could not believe there were creatures like this. However, as he continued fading in and out it became more clear, there was a very large creature carrying him along like he was a feather.
Xenox drifted between the worlds of dreaming and the living, living in a fever dream almost as people, things, everything melded together showing just how bad his hunger and dehydration was hitting the man. Slowly he began to come to fully in the actual world now as his nose began twitching slowly. What was this scent? Food? No, no his mind must still be tricking him, had to...his mind trailed off as he began to slowly stand up. He was shaky and unbalanced, yet his sheer will to survive was kicking in, his nose leading him to where the scent was coming from before his eyes tried to pop out of his head. Standing in front of him and cooking, was a gigantic panther-like creature, but he stood on two legs and upright like a human being. "No way....what in the bloody hells is a mink doing here? I thought all of you stayed in the Grandline on Zou?" Xenox had read about them in books, but he had never seen one in person, yet here was one right in front of him, who had saved his life from the brink of death. "Why....why did you save me? I have done nothing for you, done you no wrong or right, at least I don't remember doing so.....going for a week or two without more then some scraps and barely enough water can....do very, very odd things to a man's mind." He tried to step forward just as his legs gave out and sent him falling to his knees as his hand raised outward, not showing any weakness. "I'm....my name is Xenox Zenith, regardless of why, I owe you my thanks for saving me back there..."
