Hiya guys! I am bringing you a new fanfic. This took place someplace on Earth. Anyway, several people are alive in here, because I just want them to be. ;)

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN ONE PIECE. SADLY.

CHAPTER 1

The day started ordinary. The Thousand Sunny had its usual glow and cheerfulness as it sailed the endless sea. The crew went on their usual routine. The Captain was goofing off, running around the lawn deck and constantly demanding snacks made of meat. Morning naps were always on the First mate's schedule. The Navigator worked on her precious maps not wanting to be disturbed. The sniper and the shipwright were both preoccupied on a project they were working on. The archaeologist continued to know more about the void century as she sipped her tea on her usual spot near the foremast. Herbs lined the doctor's table in the infirmary as he engaged himself in making better medicine for the whole crew. The late morning meant that the cook should be in his kitchen by then, and was preparing lunch for everyone. As for the musician, he kept playing different instruments to keep the crew moving and on the groove. It was a satisfying morning. They all thought it would go on like this until the sun had gone down.

No one could have predicted what would have happened.

All at once, they felt as if something was wrong; some of them shivered at the feeling. They all stopped whatever they were doing and sensed their surroundings. The swordsman, woken up from his nap, already had his sword unsheathed. The others rushed and soon, were gathered on deck, all staring at the thing which caused their uneasiness. Everyone had become alert.

"Huh?" Luffy voiced out, as he stared at the ball of darkness on deck which seemingly came out of nowhere.

"What's that?" Unfortunately, none of the crew had an answer. The captain approached it a little closer, curious.

"Luffy, be careful. It might be dangerous." Robin warned, also taking a step towards their captain.

But within seconds, they were blinded by a sudden burst of light from the ball as darkness engulfed them all. They can see nothing but a vast array of fast moving lights. Each of them shocked as to why they did not even have a body although they could feel their bodies moving. What shocked them more was the absence of their crew. They were like sucked into different paths but were experiencing the same thing. Bodiless, they traveled the trails of darkness and uncertainty.

And just like that. They were once again separated, even more, in a world foreign to them.

Somewhere in the New World, a certain second division commander was having a sparring fight with the first division commander; their friend, the fourth division commander, watched and kept up with the scores of punches and kicks. They just got back from a trip on one of their captain's turfs. Of course being the rebels that they were (Marco disagrees on this one, he was just dragged alright?), they also took a side trip on an island because it has "cool-looking trees". They had made a bet on who can gather the most fruits, on which Ace lost and had resulted in this sparring fight. Nevertheless, the three commanders weren't able to continue the sparring as they were also absorbed by the gloom.

Koala was furious. She was tasked by Dragon to bring a pile of paper works to Sabo for him to work on; but she couldn't for the life of her find out where he ran off to.

He must have known these would come. That bastard. She let out a huff and continued her hunt of the blonde man. Needless to say, she wouldn't be finding him anytime soon.

The three brothers didn't foresee seeing each other too soon but fate really liked to play with them.

And.. that's the first chapter. :D Tell me what you think. x
