I put some thought into this story, hope you guys like it! Oh, and my OC is 25 in the story, so in the flashback in the story, she's 16. Just so that no one is confused on her age.
Trafalgar D. Water Law was known best as the Surgeon of Death, nothing ever surprised him much in the crazy world that they lived in today. But one woman in particular, had him in slight shock at the scene that portrayed in front of him.
A woman with dark brown hair and hazel eyes stared down at the man in front of her as he laid on the ground screaming in pain. A small pool of blood pooled itself under the man as he screamed in agony, stab wounds showing up all over his chest and abdomen.
The woman just clicked her tongue in annoyance and sighed, swishing the wine in her cup lazily, "I warned you, didn't I?" she asked in a mocking tone at the screaming man.
People watched in horror as the man's eyes went to the back of his head and he screamed even louder, blood starting to come out of his mouth, choking him. He gagged and sputtered for breath, the thick red substance clogging up his airways until he stopped moving entirely.
Everyone in the bar turned their heads to the woman some in shock, and some with a knowing look. She'd just killed a man; without touching him may they add. She just shrugged and stood up, stretching her long fair arms, her open-back stretch-jersey bodysuit seemed to fit perfectly on her body with tight jeans covering her legs.
She gave a relieved sigh, "This is why I don't make deals with people who don't respect my 'bargains'." She announced to everyone loud and clear. "I'll be taking my leave." She chirped.
She gave a small bag of money to the bartender, "Here you go, that should help you with cleaning supplies and for the drink." She told him and turned on her black heeled boots. Her eyes went down to look at the dead man, "I'll take this out of your hands. Have a nice day." She chipped and grabbed the body by the foot and dragged it away like a worthless doll.
Law's interest was pretty high now, did she have a devil fruit? That would explain how she killed the man without her hands. He decided that it was best not to follow her if she could do that and asked people in the city about her. Everyone seemed to know her, some respected her, and some feared the shit out of her.
"She's a very interesting woman, she kills someone every now and then without even touching them. No bounty hunter will go near her! Can you believe that?" An old man told Law with an airy chuckle.
"That woman's name is Meika, Goddess of Death, some say that she once got shot in the head twice and kept fighting even after that! I don't know if that's true, but the thought is just petrifying." One young man told him with a shiver, "Why are you so interested in her anyways? She's a scary character."
"Meika's made bargains with a bunch of people in this city, when you don't respect the bargain and betray her, you end up dying in a horrendous way." A woman named Katha explained to Law, tending to the small garden in front of her. "I made a bargain with her 9 years ago." She added.
Law looked at the woman, "Is that her devil fruit power?" he asked.
Katha gave a titled nod, "Kind of. I had fallen off a tree when I was younger and ended up with a splint of wood in my neck, that's when a younger Meika found me. She told me that she could save me. It was an amazing experience." She sighed.
Flashback
Katha was quite the adventurous seeker when she was younger and liked to climb trees. She loved the beautiful sight that high heights gave to you. But she wasn't expecting to almost die from doing what she loved.
She decided to climb one of the biggest trees in the city's forest and ended up falling, getting a sharp splint of wood jabbed into her neck. The pain was unbearable, blood spewed out in a single stream as she tried to call for help. Katha stopped and tears flowed out of her eyes as her vision started to fade, 'Guess this is where I die.' She though sadly, she'd had so much more to live for.
Dying at the age of 21 just seemed too soon for her.
The sound of footsteps came closer and closer to her dying body and she saw her. Meika.
"Oh my, how'd you get yourself in this predicament?" she asked with a curious look.
"H…el…p." Katha mustered out in a begging tone. She wanted to live so badly, she wanted to have more adventures, get married, have two kids, and watch them grow up. Now it was too late, this girl was going to witness her final moments.
Meika smiled softly at her, "It's not too late." She stated in a knowing voice. "I can save you." She told her simply and held out a helping hand to Katha, smiling even more, "The bargain is: you can continue to keep living and do as you please; as long as you don't do anything against me, such as try to kill me or turn me in to the marines. Deal?" she asked Katha was a stern voice.
Katha gave a weak nod and shook her hand in Meika's, "Switch." Meika said and the pain instantly went away. "Continue living." Meika told her and left her dumfounded at how she'd saved her life.
End.
"I'm grateful that Meika saved my life. I was blessed to have two wonderful kids and get married, just like I wanted to." Katha said happily.
Law sighed, "So she can stop people from dying if she gives them a bargain, huh?" he asked with slight interest. Katha shrugged and Law soon walked away after obtaining enough information. It was a priority now; get Meika to join his crew.
To him, she seemed like an interesting individual. But who wouldn't be slightly interested at the sight of a girl killing a man without touching him once.
He went to his submarine where his crew greeted him. "Captain, you're back!" Bepo exclaimed.
"Yes, Shachi, Penguin, I need you guys to do something for me." He told the two crew members. They both gave him confused looks and nodded. "Go catch this girl. A woman told me that she usually walks throughout town, checking up on everyone." He explained to the two men. They both nodded and quickly left to go find the so called 'Goddess of Death'.
Well, how was that? Tell me in the comments! The second chapter will be up soon! Probably tomorrow or the day after that, but it'll be up soon. Thanks for reading! Bye!
