"As one of The Twelve Supernovas, she isn't to well known. At first glance, you would never guess her to be part of this "Worst Generation", but if your first glance of her is when shes fighting a war, only then will you understand why she has earned her place as one of The Twelve Supernovas." - someone, somewhere.

Chapter 1: Competition

For Katsu, it was a fine day, a normal day at that. The big orange sun in the sky was sinking down, hiding behind the waves of the oceans. As the villagers strolled on there way, they held their children close as they passed the bar filled with obnoxious laughs and outrageous pirates.

Entering the bar, you could see there was only one woman present, and she was the main attraction. Her long black curly locks rested upon her loosened shoulders. Her bright red lipstick was smudged a little under her lip, but seeing how drunk everyone was in that bar, no one paid the slightest attention to any of her imperfections. Some would say she had eyes darker than black, but if you dared to peer any closer into them you would soon realize they're violet.

One of the fellow pirates she was sitting across from slammed his half empty mug onto the wooden table, causing some of the bubbly liquid to sway out and onto his shirt. He paid no mind to the mess he made.

His groggy eyes met hers, "You're kiddin' us right?" A hiccup of his interrupt his sentence, "you're not... actually plannin' on leavin' us, are ya?"

The woman was a little unsteady herself, but not as drunk as the rest of the pirates that swarmed around her, laughing and clashing their cups.

"Of course I am!" She gave a light smile, her long legs were crossed as she took another swing of her drink.

The man slurred his words, "b-but why!? You've been on this island for awhile now. C'mon Katsu, y-you can't possibly leave now."

"I have too! They are going to be there." Determination flowed through her eyes, only to get washed away when she took another huge chug of her drink.

"Who is they?" The man grumbled, leaning back in his chair giving Katsu a raise of his eyebrow, calling for the bartender to bring him and Katsu a few more drinks.

"My competition, of course!" A huge grin slithered on to her red lips, taking but another guzzle of her glass. Aimlessly, she raised her sleve up and wiped the wetness around her lips away. As she lowered her arm, it revealed a bigger smug of her lipstick than before.

After downing a couple more mugs of beer, she already left the bar and was stumbling past the village, the night stars looking down on her.

"Hmph," she grumbled to herself. "I-If I wanna make it there in time, I'd better leave tonight." Katsu pressed her fingers against the sides of her nose, trying to concentrate as she swayed a little. She clearly had a little to much to drink. But that wasn't going to stop her.

She continued down the paths of the village, looking around in search for something. That's when she spotted one. It was small, but big enough to accompany her on her journey to the next island. It was docked by the shore, just sitting there in the dark.

"A ship! That's what I n-need." With hurried feet, she made her way down to the dock. Without a second thought she had climbed up onto the ship. It was clearly a pirates ship. Thinking this ship was the ship of a pirate who was drunk in the bar she was just at, she smiled. It was an easy robbery if no one interfered.

"Hey! What do you think you're doing!?"

A frown grew on Katsu's face.

"What do you mean? This is my ship!" She called down to the single pirate that was looking up at his ship in shock. Katsu was standing on the edge of the ships nose, peering down.

"No! It's my ship! It's mine and my crew's ship!" This pirate looked weak. His stance was unsteady and you could see the fear in his eyes. Katsu took a lucky pick. An easy one. Katsu wouldn't bother with him. Just his ship.

"That's a lie!" Katsu's words slurred out of her mouth, "T-This is my ship! I claimed it no more than. . ." She placed a finger on her smudged lip as she thought hard. "40 seconds ago."

"That's not how it works! You-you can't take my ship!" The pirate cried out as he watched her untie the rope that docked the ship. The ship was all wooden, no originality in it whatsoever. Not even a symbol on its sail to fear other pirates away. An easy target for pirates to raid.

"We're pirates. We still from each other. Whether its gold, food, ships or.. lives. I'm a pirate! And I'll steal it! Who are you to tell me what I can't do, when you can't even protect what is yours." Katsu gave the newbie pirate a small lecture as the ship began to depart.

"Oh yeah," she turned back around to face the man who grew smaller and smaller as the ship sailed farther away. "T-Thanks for the ship!" She hiccupped.

Trying to keep her head from throbbing to much, she plopped down on the floor, resting her back against the inside of the ship as the waves carried the it away. Her eyelids lowered as her breathing began to slow.

She was a pirate. She could steal things when she wanted, whenever she wanted. She had as much freedom as she wished for. As long as she had the power to deny anyone who tried to stop her, she could do anything she pleased. She has yet to find someone to deny her of her freedom.

Of course, as a kid she was denied freedom. She didn't like speaking of her past. After all, the reason she became a pirate was to get away from that horrid place. It reeked of fear itself.

Her pink cheek fell onto her shoulder, her Log Pose which sat upon her wrist was laying in her lap almost as if she was protecting it.

"Next stop . . ." She breathed out, "Sabaody Archipelago."

Oh, yes. Sabaody Archipelago.

"If I do estimate correctly, twelve pirates, coming from different parts of the sea have all departed on there journey to Sabaody Archipelago. I wonder. . . what will happen when they cross paths? Will swords clash, will alliances be made, will lives be lost. . . will hearts collide?" - someone, somewhere.

[Author note: I know it was kind of boring. It was just introducing the character, Katsu! Trafalgar Law is in the next chapter, and that's when things set sail! (Haha see what I did there?) So please, read on! I promise you wont regret it!]
