Chapter 1: The Beginning Of The Adventure
Shouts could be heard all through the small town. A girl with red hair ran past the villagers dodging quickly at their abrupt stop to the shouting careful not to knock anyone over.
Marines could be seen with their swords out chasing after the red-haired girl shouting to stop.
It was an accident what happened. She was was walking around the village trying to find a place to eat. Not that there weren't a lot of restaurants, however the red-haired girl could be quite picky. Finding a restaurant she deemed to be good she began running towards it.
Marines walking with a pirate in shackles that they just captured who had just caused trouble at a nearby area was being carried off towards the marine ship, not being able to stop in time the girl rammed into the marines carrying the pirate knocking them over. The captured pirate not being knocked over in the process took the opportunity to flee.
Looking up the girl began to apologize to the people she had knocked over but stopped short seeing the glares from the two marines she had just rammed into.
Marine #1: AFTER HIM HE'S GETTING AWAY!
Marine #2: THIS GIRL MUST BE PART OF HIS CREW CAPTURE HER!
The girl staring wide-eyed at the marines, shaking her hands to try to explain she wasn't but the marines had already drawn their swords.
Red-Haired Girl: I guess I don't have a choice, you aren't going to let me go are you?
The girl had drawn her scythe prepared to fight. She raised her scythe above her head and swung the back of the curved blade knocking the marines that stood in front of her over. She turned to swing at the marines that stood behind her knocking them over like the ones in front of her.
Taking the opportunity to run while the marines were standing up processing what happened, the red-haired girl took the opportunity to run.
Making a sharp left turn hoping to out-run the Marines hot on her tail. She made another left turn and saw a small space between two houses that were close together she ran in there and ducked down hoping the Marines would run past without noticing her. She ducked down lower as the Marines ran past the space shouting to each other to split up to find her.
Looking up to the sky and sighing as she sat there, she began to think about what to do to get out of this mess.
She had just started out her adventure and already she had a run-in with the marines.
Closing her eyes she thought back to what her mother had said only hours before arriving at this new village.
Mother: Now Blaze I don't want you becoming a pirate or a criminal. I understand you want to travel and go on this crazy adventure but it's dangerous out there with all those ruthless pirates running around thinking they can do whatever they please! I wish you would reconsider this whole adventure idea! It's much safer here!
Opening her eyes again she smiled. Blaze knew her mother meant well and only wanted her safety, but she didn't understand the thrill of an adventure of traveling the world and seeing new things. Blaze did from time to time think of becoming a pirate, she could fight, she had her scythe with her and she was pretty decent in using it, but she questioned if she'd be good enough. She had no desire to become King of the pirates, but she did want to find One Piece, she wanted to know what Gol D. Roger left behind that started the Pirate Age.
Blaze having momentarily forgotten the situation she was in, got up and started heading to back towards the restaurant she spotted earlier, thinking of how great it's going to be when she gets a ship and can go out to sea and really start her adventure.
