The moon shined on the evening sky, every other time a single cloud floated over the sky. On a night like this every other town seemed to fall soundly asleep calmly and safely asleep, but not this city…
The lights from the stores put a ghostly appearance on every street, and in every alley strange sinister eyes stared into the streets. Grin's and evil looking smiles shined from the shadows, gangs and bad men stood and waited patiently for someone to walk to them and give them a juicy and fun night of screaming and playing around… this city was the Grand line,
And like a call from heaven, a car came driving through the streets, a car? No more like a limousine and the license plate on the front and the back labeled: cross… the limo' drove into a driveway of a large inn. And out came a man and a woman, all dressed in black expensive clothes. Actually looked like they just came out of a funeral, somehow they had this rich glow over them.
A man well shielded from the lights coming from the streets observed closely how they walked and how they panicked over little things, or in this case…mud.
"Hey boss? Are you thinking we should do something about them?" one of his men asked, he knew the look on his captains face, he was plotting something…and judging from the sly smile he had on it was something fun
The man smiled, whoever they were, they looked like fun people to use for a game…
Until a large man stepped out of the limousine and opened a bigger door, in a formal gesture the large butler bowed to the side when a girl stepped out. The men looked up in aw, she was gorgeous, actually looked like she was cut right out of an sophisticated French movie
The man stared at her and she looked around and walked a few steps and stared into the moon light. And the lights from the hotel and stores shined on her flawless face and curled black hair; she was wearing a black fur coat and high heels. Looked around until her eyes met, she looked away fast and hurried to her mother, the men chugged and soon broke into laughter. The woman, the girl's mother, looked over to the alley and got a worried face on and pushed her daughter into the hotel. The butler stood outside and guarded the limousine, until the man turned and stepped inside the limo' and drove away.
A short moment passed until the woman stepped out of the hotel holding a phone in one hand and a cigarette in the other…
A few blocks away cell-phone rang a loud tone, the music played wannbe with spice-girls, Nami looked up from her desk and put down the feather pen, she was drawing a map from the book, most people would call that copying but she preferred her own version of the maps. That's why she drew them on beautiful brown paper and used ink and a feather pen to draw them. It was her passion.
She reached for her phone and brought it up to her ear, she opened her lips to greet her but the voice on the other side of the line beat her.
"Hello…?" sounded the female voice in her cell
"Yes, hello." She answered in a sweet voice…
"Who am I speaking to?" the woman asked.
Nami knew exactly who she was, since she called in the number he used when on duty in school, she was just another petrified mother calling to ask her to guide her little one threw the school, oh well it's what you get for wanting to join the welcoming comity…
"my name is Nami, I'm in the welcoming comity, might I ask who I'm speaking to?" she said as sweetly as she could, If there is one thing she learned on her job there, it was to always sound as sweet and gentle as you possibly could, otherwise the parents that called her to see if there young ones were doing ok in this school…
"Oh then, I am Mrs. Cross, Lady Emily Cross if you will, I am going to be sending my daughter into this school…"
There it was… another worried parent just a little paranoid…this school was not all bad. She did like it here, all her friends were there. She liked it hear, her boyfriend was here…
"Right, well I'll pass it over to the headmaster…ill just need the name and age, which will lead to her grade and status…" she went over the basic points of the school and what the welcoming comity was supposed to do when her daughter would come… she never liked the first times she talked to overprotective parents, but this one seemed a little over panicked, she was rushing the talk.
"Just to clarify… If anything happens to my little star I will sue the school!" she said when finally she stopped their conversation. 'Hmm there's something new…' Nami thought to herself, she had never had a threat…
"I assure that I will do anything I can do…"
"No! You don't understand…" Mrs. Cross paused for a second, like she was thinking hard about something…"… I want her to be protected, 24/7! She has a…condition…"
"You mean like a disease?"
"No! If it's any of your concern, she will tell you herself…" Mrs. Cross said and Nami could just see the snob face she had on right now…and a small vain started to form on her head and throb…
"Alright then I will tell the headmaster and vice head mistress, I will tell you when miss cross can have the tour given by me and my friend Vivi. Your daughter will be in good hands with us…"
"Why doesn't that make me feel any better…bib, bib, bib." And that marked the end of that conversation… Nami grunted but then sighed. There was no need to bitch about it. Those parents were right, when she thought about it; the grand line was a bit risky…
She stood up from desk chair and walked into the living room… the draped were closed and Usopp and Luffy were pinned to the TV and Zoro was napping in the couch, she smiled and walked to Zoro and sat beside him, she was going to ger Luffy's attention somehow, she was going to please the rich snob somehow, maybe the cross lady would feel better knowing her daughter had her friends as well, and who knows, perhaps she would be fun.
"Luffy! There's a new girl coming to school… and I'm supposed to show her around the school…"
"Really!" Luffy shouted and stood up from the game, Usopp not nearly as happy about it as Luffy was. Cause with Luffy's player gone his player crashed. And soon the TV labeled: GAME OVER
"Yeah but that only means I won't make it to dinner Luffy…"
Luffy's face turned disappointed for a while. She knew he was disappointed; they had all prepared a night all alone together. And Luffy had promised to pay more attention to her then the food…
"Oh…" Luffy looked bummed, he looked down on the floor and the shadow from his hat shaded over his eyes, he looked so series and... It just reminded Nami on how much she liked him…she felt so sorry right now.
"It's alright! Ill want to meet her! That will make it better!" he shouted and grinned. Nami stood up and hugged him, just a little hug made him feel better every time…
"Oh get a room…!" Usopp said and started a new game.
"We have one… want us to use it?" Nami asked him with a mischievous smile she got imaginary cat ears and fangs. Usopp started to tremble with fear…
"Nonono!" he said and shook his head, he turned away and started the game again; Luffy soon joined him and said something about kicking his ass. Nami smiled and sat back down, and listened to Zoro snore so loud she expected the roof to cave in any time…
Sanji walked out of the kitchen with an arm full of plates, and on his heels came Chopper with an arm full of knives and forks and glass's, the little kid looked troubled and walked wobbly.
"Nami chwan dinner is ready~3" he said and floated around the living room and knocked on Zoro's head so he woke up with noises, cursed the ero-cook a few times and then stood up. As soon as Luffy heard dinned her bolted like a lightning over to the table as fast as Nami had ever seen him, he was hungrier then usually apparently. All together the roommates collected around the table and Sanji told them whet incredible dish he had made for this evening.
"Hey Nami who is that new girl coming to school?" Usopp asked with his mouth stuffed with potatoes,
"Hmm, there's a new girl coming?" chopper asked and looked up at her with his big brown eyes.
"Yeah, she's a coming this Friday, her paranoid mother wants me to give her a tour around school." Nami answered, not looking up from her dish.
"I bet she's a nice girl, what's her name?"
"Hailey… something, her mother was really paranoid about her safety she wants her protected 24/7… it got a little annoying…"
"A new girl coming? Wow I wonder if she's pretty…" Sanji said and looked dramatically into the dark.
"Don't get any ideas, ero-cook. I bet her mother wants to protect her from a prostitute like you" Zoro said and brought his glass to his lips, Sanji pounded the back of his head and Zoro's drink came squirting out of his nose.
Luffy, chopper and Usopp exploded out of laughter, Nami chugged a little, Zoro stood up from the table, anger burning from his eyes and soon they were in a huge fight,
"Guys, no fighting in the kitchen!" Nami scolded them,
"Oh of course, anything for you, Nami chwan3" Sanji said and sunk down into his chair, the evening flew by like nothing unusual, when Nami got tired of it and she wanted to sleep , Luffy stopped his videogame playing and took her and silently walked her into his room, there he didn't say anything ether, he just smiled. Then when she started to undress, his strong arms wrapped around her and helped her take her clothes of, up to the point where it was just Luffy undressing Nami…
Nami closed her eyes and enjoyed the feeling of his fingers all over her body, she was now not in anything but her underwear. She looked back at him he was a little insecure when it came to that part… he was still so clueless. Nami smiled and reached out for his hands, she wrapped them around her chest and let his hands cup her breasts, Luffy swallowed, he was nervous…
She rested her back against his chest and her head on his shoulder. And breathed in his sent… Luffy's nose and lips brushed against her neck and she knew that he was breathing in her perfume… he backed off with her into the bed and laid her down…
He started to strip down, his bare torso and pants barely staying up to cover his area. She watched as he dragged his pants down so he was only standing there in his boxers…
He strolled into bed with her and wrapped his arms around her waist…
Soon after wards she fell asleep, with him breathing on her neck. She felt his heart beat on her back and soft breath sent her into her dream world…
Her last thought though was what kind of girl that Hailey would be…she snapped out of her state of dreams and turned to Luffy.
"Luffy…" she started; he answered with a mumble…
"That new girl… her mother wants her to be protected… when there in this town…" she paused to see if Luffy was following her…
"Uu-huh…" he nodded.
"Do we have the time to be taking care of some girl we don't even know…?" her thoughts just turned, they couldn't be wondering around the city doing what they did with some girl in the drag… she had to get this of her shoulders… Nami's eyes snapped open; she just had a crazy idea!
"I dunno…" Luffy said half asleep,
"I was wondering… does your brother have anything on his hands lately...?"
Luffy's eyes snapped open… he was interested! He sat up in his bed and turned on the lamp
"Ace… I don't know, I haven't talked to him is a weary long time…"
"Can you see if I can meet with him? Sometime soon maybe…" she said and put on a cute pout…
Luffy put on his 'suspicious' face and pouted…
Nami smiled her had missed that pout… things had been sort of slow here so he didn't have a chance to do his suspicious face allot these days…
"Just call him, do it tomorrow…" she asked and after a thought, Luffy nodded…
Nami lay down on the pillow and dragged Luffy with her, she held his head in between her breasts and Luffy wrapped his arms around her hips and she hugged him and with that she fell asleep…

The next morning… Outside of the school… this was Gold D. Rogers elite private school for the gifted… and in the cool shadows from the trees outside the gates of the school gates stood a dark figure…he sat on a large motorcycle and looked at the people waltzing around the school grounds. He was certain that they were all minding there on beeswax not caring what the other person was doing or how he was. He pulled his hat down to his eyes and grinned…he remembered how it was when he was in this school.
As he recalled then he got in trouble allot… lots of screaming and yelling and being dragged to the principle office…ace laughed, those were good memory's ..Up to the point where he ran away and. Then the real adventure for him began. Compared to the life he had now then this school had been a waste of good time and effort to lern nothing…
He looked around for a second…'wonder if they should be here about now…' naah… his brother was such a dud that he didn't really expect him to be on time…

Nami stood outside the Sea-king hotel, 'wow, this is some fancy pants family…' she thought to herself, she looked behind her and saw the car Luffy was in shot-gun and Sanji was driving chopper, Zoro and Usopp were in the back seat, the car was pretty huge to fit all of them in it. Sanji saw her looking and started to wave like the idiot he was…
the door opened suddenly and out stepped a woman, the door was opened by a large man that looked more to be a professional wrestling champion, he gracefully bowed to the woman how didn't seem too care…she walked down the steppes like a queen with her head held up so high, it was like she was going after Boa Hancock in a grace contest…
Nami saw just jet that she would never like that woman… to much VIP written over her face
"Who are you?" she asked and her voice was dripping in arrogance, Nami didn't say a thing as she took a moment to hate her…
And then the moment was over she smiled softly and introduced herself, "…I will be showing you daughter to the school…"
"oh really…" the woman known as Mrs. Cross walked over to her and Nami felt her eyes examine every part of her body, it felt a little…wrong….
"Didn't I specifically ask for protection, you don't look like you could even protect you self…" she said and walked over to the car…
Nami felt a wane throb in her fore head… and she felt the hate boil inside of her…
"I understand your concern, and I have thought of it completely though…" had she now…? As she had Luffy call his brother and they had agreed to meet outside of the school right before class, she was already a little late and she was starting to worry if he would give up and leave and then she didn't know what to do. She had started to make a list of all the things that could go wrong in this day and it was longer then she had imagined…
"I have a line of options I'm ready to test out a number of bodyguards in the school and whenever you have the time you can…"
"How much?"
"What?"
"How much do you cost, you must have a price for your service…?"
Nami blinked a few times before her mind started to take advantage of the situation…
Mrs. Cross walked back to the door and left Nami looking weary happy with a check for 50,000 beli… Nami tapped Luffy's window on the car,
"Isn't she coming soon?" Luffy asked pouting.
"She is coming isn't she… were getting late…" Usopp said leaning closer to her.
"Yeah, she's coming, her mother when to get her…" Nami sighed and looked back the door was opening again…
"She's coming!" she said sharp and straightened out her back. Sanji opened her door and stood in the door, the red did the same. They wanted to know who this new girl was like…
The door opened and she stepped out…
