Cyber: Oh look yet another fic! I know I should be working on Feudal Ghoul and PMD: Explorers Of Change buut One Piece Invaded my brain and Pirates are epic so I decided I'm going to write this fic! Lo and behold! It is not a crossover! Woah! Anyway I do hope this one is good, I'm mostly using the Anime for reference and plot to write this fic along with Wiki and what I've seen so far. So please bear with me and feel free to point out my mistakes. Then I'll try to improve my writing to make it as smooth and easy to follow as possible anyway this is a relatively long AN so I do apologize for its length!
My ears were ringing, I had no idea why, but it was. My body felt heavy too. I couldn't breathe or struggle. Where was I? It was wet all around. Was I in water? That must be it.
I was sinking deeper into my watery grave. I was losing conciseness... Just before I blacked out I saw someone dive into the water above me. It was a blur of black and blonde...
When I came too, I heard voices, they seemed vaguely familiar. I didn't know from where though. It was a childish voice, then an excited one. It was all muffled so I couldn't really tell what they were saying.
"Oh she's waking up!" I heard the loud and excitable voice cry out. My head was sore. I slowly forced my eyes open. I was met with a face. He had messy black hair, big innocent looking eyes, a scar underneath his right eye and had a familiar Straw hat on his head. Suddenly a foot knocked him back.
"Oi! Luffy get away from the lady! You're probably invading her personal space!" The owner of the foot growled. I looked around a bit to gain my bearings.
"Easy there, you're still hurt and you nearly drowned back there." The child-like voice said. I found its speaker.
"...a raccoon?" I questioned out loud, mostly to myself. The fuzzy raccoon in the pink top hat seemed upset/angry and yelled. "I'm a REINDEER YOU BITCH!"
I just giggled at his reaction. He seemed familiar. They all did. I looked to my left. There stood the hottest guy ever. In my opinion anyway. I blushed slightly as I stared at him. He was wearing a fine tailored suit, with a blue undershirt, a tie to make it neat. He had blond hair that covered his left eye. His eyebrow ended with a curl. He had a cigarette clenched between his teeth.
"How are you feeling M'lady?" He asked with a gentle smile. I snapped out of my daze. "Uh, I'm feeling better... Where am I though? My head hurts."
"Well you are on the Going Merry! We're currently on route to Alabasta. Um what's your name Lady?" The Reindeer asked as he checked me over. I realized I was bandaged up. Before I could answer. "How did you end up in the ocean with all those injuries?" The blonde asked me.
I frowned. I had no clue. My mind was blank on that. "I don't really remember... It just happened..." Came my reply. "Oh my name is Miora."
"Miora, such a lovely name for such a lovely girl!" The smoking blond gushed with smoke hearts floating around him. I found it adorable. "Um did you guys pull me out? I do remember sinking and not being able to move..."
"You just sunk? Are you perhaps a devil fruit user?" The blond asked after calming down a bit. I thought long and hard. I finally remembered eating something horrible just before I found myself under water. "Yeah I did. Before I hit the water... It's as far as I can remember though."
The Straw Hat kid recovered from the Blonde's kick. "Oh cool so what kind of power did you get!?" "Luffy let her rest! She is clearly still tired from nearly drowning!" The Reindeer scolded.
"Oh not to be rude but who are you guys?" I asked, as I realized I didn't know their names. "Oh I'm Monkey D Luffy! I'm gonna be King of the Pirates!" He happily declared. "My name is Sanji, I'm the Chef. Name anything and I'll make it." Sanji said with a polite bow. "I'm Tony Tony Chopper! I'm the Ship's Doctor!" The cute Reindeer yelled.
I giggled again. They sure were energetic. Those names all sounded so familiar. "Well I thank you for patching me up then Doctor Chopper." My smile widened when he reacted with. "Flattery won't make me happy you bitch!" He however was doing a happy dance. "Right."
"Oh I saved you from drowning my dear Miora!" Sanji said eager for attention. He was like a puppy waiting for a treat. "Then thank you very much."
After a while they left the room. They'd ask me more things later. Right now I needed rest. According to the good doctor at least. I let myself drift off.
I woke up again shortly after to some noise outside. I slowly got up. Rubbing my tired brown eyes. I left the bed. I seem to be in a galley of some sort. The steering was also located in here. I saw a neat looking kitchen. I walked around the room for a while before exiting though the door. Outside everyone seem to stop what they were doing.
"Oh Miora, you're up!" Chopper called out. "Is this the girl you fished out of the wreck Sanji?" A long nosed guy asked the cook. He wore a bandanna, over it was a pair off odd goggles, and he also wore overalls. I saw a duck and a girl with blue hair. The blue haired girl waved to me. "Hello there. I'm Vivi, this is Carue." "Kwaah!" The Duck said happily. I also noticed someone sleeping on the front deck. He had most notably green hair and three swords with him.
"So cute!" I squealed over the big duck. I walked over to Carue and pet him with a smile. I saw Luffy sitting on the ram figure head. I learned the names of the last two people on board. Ussop and Roronoa Zoro. For the day I spent my time staring out at the sea, wondering how I ended up here in the first place.
"So Miora, you have Devil Fruit powers right?" The sudden voice of Usopp snapped me out of my daze. "Uh yeah, I can try to use it." I said closing my eyes. I felt the changes happen. From human to beast, I turned into a golden lion. I flicked my tail and flexed my strong muscles. It felt odd but amazing.
"Soo cool!" I turned my head to see Chopper, Luffy and the others staring in awe. Sanji was gushing on how beautifully majestic I looked. I shifted back. How did my clothes not rip? Oh well no point on pondering that. "The Cat-Cat fruit model: Lion." I happily said with a purr. I tugged on my blue shirt, it hung loosely at the end exposing my belly ever so slightly. I could see the bandages wrapped around my torso too.
"You guys said you were on your way to Alabasta right?" I began to say. I got a nod from Luffy. "We're taking Vivi home and helping her free Alabasta from that jerk Crocodile." Luffy said punching his own hand. "I see... Crocodile... That name sounds familiar." "It's not surprising, considering that he's one of the seven war lords of the sea." Vivi said. "Well then... I guess I'll have to help out. I mean I have nowhere to go or remember where I'm from, so might as well help you guys out!" I said raising a gloved hand. I just realized I wore fingerless gloves. I must really like blue.
"Y-you mean it Miora? You don't have too." Vivi started. "Ooh she's so helpful!" I turned to the swooning cook with a smile. "After all I owe you guys for saving me too. So it's only natural!" With that in mind. "Hmm it could help recover your memories, but don't get into much trouble! You're still injured!" Chopper yelled. I just giggled. I really liked these people. "Oh don't worry! I'll be cautious."
Sanji moved to the Galley to make some dinner. Nami decided to show me to the girls' room and where I'd be sleeping from now on. Life seem to looking good for me so far.
