Prologue

Like my friend Ave already said: fanfictions have a big power over those who read them. If well written they can make you believe nearly anything. She also gave a few examples like: That a blind girl and a bug can have the best love story ever existed. That there are millions of different pirate queens, all called Mary Sue, whose adventures are all worth reading...I don´t plan on going on, ´cause you all know what she wrote, if you read my part.

But while she thinks, that she should have stopped her fangirling, because her brother said that fanfictions are the end of the civilized word, I have a different opinion. If the author of the fanfiction has the talent, to convince the reader that Sasuke and Naruto are more than brothers, if he manages to catch our attention, then why is it bad? If they are able to catch us in the story, then I think it is worth reading it, don´t you think so, too?

Anyways, back to the subject. My two crazy friends decided to go on a trip, even though I have pretty crazy thoughts, their thoughs are much more crazy than mine, I have to admit that. So after beeing nearly killed, my friend Ave dragges me and my other friend Ter to her house and tells me about a magical portal. They both get inside to go to the One Piece world and I follow them, to keep them from screwing up (well, that didn´t work out very well)...

I hope our little story will please you, even though I wouldn´t think so, because all this sounds like another of those Mary Sue stories which we know and hate, me too to be honest. Whenever I write stories I am pretty scared of creating a Mary Sue and now I have probably become one myself. Damnit. Well, you can´t change the past but the future. I actually hope that you will read our illogical little adventure and that you will decide, that this Mary Sue story, is not like any other one.

Chapter 1

Well considering what happened that day, I should have guessed that something was amiss. The night when this mess started I had been awake until one o' clock. Yeah, you probably ask yourself: Why the hell is she awake until one o' clock?! I have an easy explanation: I have a friend in the United States and when I don´t have school the next day, I try to chat with her as much as possible before going to sleep. And because of a few experiments I know, that going to sleep at 1 a.m. isn´t going to work, so it wasn´t strange or anything, that I couldn´t sleep well. That is what I thought that time. But when I look back now, I think it was a warning for me. Something like: if you can´t sleep tonight, maybe you should stay in bed today. Yeah, that was it probably... I wish I would listen to my instincts sometimes, but they are too poor, to bei trusted… I guess I´m going off topic though…

Sooo... I couldn´t sleep that night. Was it a warning? Well I´ll never now, so I´ll just continue...

That day I had a meeting with Ter and Ave to go shopping. Seriously, I don´t like shopping alone, but with friends it can be awesome, especially with two crazy people like them. Yes they brighten my day... Anyways I was early at the place in Frankfurt where we were supposed to meet. I hate it, when I am too late. I don´t like it when people have to wait for me, so I waited like fifteen minutes until Ter finally came and I didn´t feel like a weirdo, just standing around in the way of all the other people who have important things to do. Smiling I greeted her and we talked a bit about... yeah... I forgot the most stuff again, oops... I think my father is right: it goes inside through one ear and outside through the other in a few seconds...

Anyways, strangely Ave didn´t appear. After half an hour Ter called and she seemed seriously pissed, so I stepped back a bit. She talked about a 'quest' or something like that. I seriously doubt, it is anything but serious and logical. And then she put her phone away. "So...", I asked carefully, "she is not coming?" I earned an angry gaze. Poor me... But luckily for me, she was angry at Ave and not at me, but poor me again, she wanted to go home because she was sure that Ave wouldn´t show up. At that I panicked lightly, being alone in this big city made me feel uncomfortable and she reluctantly showed me, the scaredy cat, the way to the train station. So now I was on the way there, when suddenly a car appeared out of nowhere! Somehow, I couldn´t move. Holy shit, holy shit, HOLY SHIT! I seriously freaked out at that. I would have never thought that I would be hit by a car. I mean yes, the coward I am, I had imagined it happening and had been extra careful, or not, when there where cars, (but living beside a car park isn´t really well for being 'careful'. You learn to ignore cars, to turn them out and that gets you in serious situations, as you can see) but well... I never thought it to really happen.

So I had been really dizzy, when it stopped with screeching tires and a crazy Ave jumped out and talked a hell of a lot and I had to recall in my head what she said, before I understood.

"Sorry for freaking you out, Rose, but this is an emergency!"

"Oh really?" Emergency? Seriously? Well, if it wasn´t worth nearly killing me, then I would kill her, which is what I planned, before she said:

"Rose", she tried to look serious, "I found a magical portal which will lead us to the One Piece world." Okay, that was totally worth it. I heard her friend say something, what was her name again? Geez, I hated names. Not only to find names for Stories was hard, to actually remember all the names of the people I met was even harder. And since I sometimes forgot the names of some of my family members, this seemed to not surprise me anymore, but it was still awkward, especially, after we got into her car and started to drive to Ter's house. It was at the end of the world but I still loved it. If I could have wished where to live, it would be her house on this hill. Did I mention that I loved it? I fell in love with it, the first time I saw it. Yea, here I am being weird again. I love that house, any problems?! Um... Anyways, we arrived safely (seriously a surprise) at Ter´s awesome house. Even though her friend, I think her name was Jessica, but I´m not entirely sure, was angry at Ave and held a long speech, we didn`t care. On the backseat we talked about One Piece and how awesome it would be, to meet all our favorite characters and I could a bit dream of my OTP´s. Yes I have two: Sanji x Zoro and Kidd x Law. I know I am crazy, so what?! Everyone is, on his or her own way!

We walked over to the door and Ave started to attack the doorbell, I let her, knowing it would save me from a fight, cause in this state, it was the best to avoid any confrontations with her. Another person which name I forgot opened the door and let us in. Ave immediately called:

"Ter, One Piece emergency!" The next moment our friend stood in front of us.

"What is it? The newest Manga isn´t out yet, neither is the Anime, besides I just checked. Oda isn´t coming to Germany for a vacation, so there will be no window of opportunity to kidnap him." Mentally I added to that: And make him draw what we want, so for me a lot of Yaoi. But of course I´d never say that out loud. I am more the quiet pervert who thinks but never shows. So before I could actually manage to blow my cover I stated: "She found a magical portal that leads to the One Piece world!" Which, now that I think about it, is very strange, because how could she know it leads to the One Piece world? She had to have gone through it one time at least, but in most fanfictions when someone switches through a portal, you cannot come back, so how did she know? Sadly, Ter didn´t think so and switched to fangirl mode, so I tried not to think too much about it.

After shivering lightly, when Ter said "Let´s go" in a creepy voice, we left the building and drove back to Aves apartment. Ter and I rushed up, but Ave called us back and Jessica´s statement confused me. I hadn`t been often enough at Ave´s to be sure, that this door was on the wrong place, so I just believed her. But when she asked about it being a good idea to just burst into the world we hoped to be One Piece, even though we didn´t know it for sure we all answered with a loud "Yes".

But still, that door was a real disappointment for me. I had the urge to poke it and to hope, that it would suddenly become more portal like, shinier and the typical sort of thing, but I restrained myself and listened to Ter. Ah, finally some suspicion. She asked how Ave could be so sure that it was indeed a portal to our favorite anime world, but the answer disappointed me as well:

"… Ummm, if you believe in it hard enough, dreams always come true?" I actually groaned at that. How… Why… Just… The fuck?! I looked at the door and back to Ave a couple of times. "Seriously? I don´t think it is a very good idea!"

"Of course it is!" Of course you think so!

"Well let´s open it." Oh reckless Ter. She was more directly than Ave and me and just opened the door. I couldn´t understand that. What if behind there, was danger? Ave has told me a few stories where Ter had been in situations, which more sounded like typical Luffy-situations than anything common in our time.

So the door was open and I saw the sea. Oh, I loved the sea, the salty smelling air, the colors in which the sea can change, the live in it... But, I realized fast, that this was unnatural. We were in a city. In a big one. And at Ave´s. So I hesitated and asked:

"Okay, so if we are doing this, who is going in first?" I was lightly nervous. "And are you sure this isn´t dangerous?"

"Only one way to find out", Ter said and grinned lightly. That was creepy. But before Ave or I could ask what happened, she pushed her inside. Ter pushed Ave into the portal. Without asking or thinking. Spontaneous. Holy- SHIT SHE DID WHAT?! Shocked I stared at the place, where Ave was standing moments ago. It was empty...
