AN: Even though I already have several stories that I have yet to update (but am in the midst of typing), I've decided to take on the challenge of continuing on where TheBlackSeaReaper left off. I'm a bit intimidated with how many emails I've gotten (77) alerting me to people who have decided to fave/follow me after TBSR's update of my adopting one of her stories, but I shall try my very best to not disappoint anyone. The first few chapters will be from TBSR with some little changes here and there.

AN2: Just to warn those avid readers on FF, the semester has started for me, and I have to do well (B or better) so I can transfer in the fall. I shall try very hard to update when I am able to, it just won't be that often due to classes, work, physical therapy and the absurd amount of studying I'm going to be doing (20 hours weekly for just studying to go with the 10 hours of classes!)

AN3: To those that have been writing scathing reviews in my other stories under the name of 'guest', you're just a bunch a cowards that don't want people to know who you are! Real Life is being a bitch to me right now, and your comments are not helping me in getting in the mood to continue writing stories! Either you stop writing offensive reviews, or I'm taking my stories to Ao3! I am still in the midst of typing them out, and am planning on rewriting Magic I Psalm-lemnly Swear. If I keep getting poor reviews in regards to my slowness and apprehension of uploading stories on this site, I am tempted to upload my weekly schedule and have you point out what day and what time you could fit in story writing!

Disclaimer: I tried to claim Harry Potter, but Snape AK'd me. I tried to claim One Piece, but Robin choked me to death. Therefore, I DON'T OWN THEM!


Chapter One

Three thousand years ago, Eris the goddess of chaos and discord created the cursed devil fruits that gave a person a special ability, but also took away their ability to swim in the sea or any body of water. After the Paramount War, Eris decided to give her favorites who did not have any devil fruit ability and those with the abilities of a devil fruit, immortality so they could live forever. And then Eris decided to have those that were dead, like Whitebeard, Ace D. Portgaz and Bon Clay, reincarnated and also to remember what they were before they died, but that did not happen until a thousand years had passed. As the years went by, they all began to notice that they were not aging.

Soon it began to get tiring to be immortal and watch the rest of the world age and die, while they could not have that same peace as the rest of them. They tried every way that they could think of to get the same peace, to never wake up to the aging world while they remained ageless. But soon everything was about to change, and it began with Crocodile and his crew.

Dagga Potter knew something horrible was happening to her as she woke up in the trunk of her uncle's car. She was in severe pain and everything was hurting. It was a good thing that she gave her most important possessions to Ron who understood that whenever she got a feeling that something bad was going to happen, it was going to happen. She even told her owl Hedwig to fly to the Burrow, just in case. It was a good thing too, because as soon as she stepped into the house, she was knocked out.

Mr. 1 was driving the car and Crocodile was in the back, looking out at the endless trees. Suddenly, he saw something that looked to be a body dumped in the ditch. Normally he would just let it go and forget, but this time something told him to not to leave.

"Stop the car Mr. 1 and turn it around," Crocodile ordered.

When they stopped at the side of the road where the body was, they got out and walked closer to the body. They saw that it was a thirteen or fourteen year old girl, lying there covered in blood and badly beaten. As he got closer, he saw that it was the Girl Who Lived, Dagga Potter. Yes, he and the others who were also cursed knew of the Magical World. And frankly, they did not think much of it as it was a very backward society.

But to his and Daz's surprise, they thought that the Wizarding world would take better care of their celebrities than this. Crocodile smiled as a thought came to him while Ms. Potter began to wake.

Dagga slowly opened her eyes to see where she was and if there was any hope that she could get any sort of help, when she saw a blurry face come into view.

"I will give you two choices. One, you can die here, or you can marry me and live. What will it be, Ms. Potter?" a man's voice asked.

Dagga could not believe what she was hearing, but she wanted to be selfish for once in her life and live. Opening her mouth, she said, "Live."

She heard a chuckle and before she could focus, she was falling back into the darkness, but as she was falling, she heard, "Good choice, Ms. Potter."

Picking her up, Crocodile ordered Mr. 1 to drive to the nearest hospital. Once they got there, the nurses took one look at the girl in his arms and flew into action.

The cops came and asked him about the girl, and he answered by saying that he found the girl in a ditch not too far from the town. Discovering that she was still alive, he had told his driver to drive to the nearest hospital. The police asked if he had seen the girl before, and he said that he had not.

Before anyone could say anything else, a loud alarm went off and nurses and doctors were trying to revive the girl whose heart had stopped beating.

Dagga Potter woke up naked in what seemed to be King's Cross Train Station. Looking around, she tried to see if there were any clothes for her to put on, but did not see any. Sighing, she wished to have some clothes, and suddenly, a pair of jeans and a black button up shirt appeared in front of her. Quickly, she put on her clothes and started walking around to see if there was anyone who could help her.

"Where is everybody?" Dagga asked, but suddenly she heard a baby crying in the distance. Following the sound, Dagga came across the ugliest baby that she had ever seen in her life. But she picked it up, ugly or not, and began to rock it back and forth to get it to calm down.

"Well, I wouldn't be doing that to a baby that looked like that," a male's voice said behind her. Turning around at a speed that she did not know that she possessed, she both of her parents, Lily and James Potter.

Dagga was in shock, and she whispered, "Mom, dad, is that really you? Does this mean that I'm dead?"

Lily smiled and replied, "Yes, it's really us. And for the question whether or not that you are dead, yes and no."

Suddenly, the ugly baby disappeared from her arms. "What just happened to the baby?" Dagga asked.

"That was a piece of Tom's soul that bastard ripped to shreds," James spat out. Dagga felt her eyes widen at what her father had just said. Tom, the Dark Lord, had ripped his soul into pieces. Even she knew that was against nature itself.

"Well, I should not be surprised at what he did. I miss you two so very much. I wished that you two were alive," Dagga said as she hugged her parents.

"So, what are you going to do?" James asked her.

Dagga thought for a moment and then answered, "I want to live, even if it means to marry someone that I never met. I owe him a life debt."

James growled out, "If he hurts you in anyway, I will find a way to get a body and kill him slowly and painfully."

Dagga smiled at what her father said as she knew that her parents really do care for her.

Lily let Dagga go as it was almost time for her to leave. Lily said to her, "I will be watching and you better not give me any grandbabies any time soon or I will be very angry. Oh, tell Sirius that he better not corrupt you with pranks, or when he dies I will get him neutered."

Dagga laughed and said, "I love you mom, dad."

As they were fading away, Dagga could hear them say, "We love you too."

Dagga woke up to see a white ceiling and she immediately knew that she was in a hospital. Sighing, she knew that made the right choice to live and see what life would throw at her.

"It's good to see you awake," the same voice from before said.


AN: So... how did I do? Still typing up the changes to TBSR's original 2nd chapter.
