" One Piece " : talking
'One Piece ' : thinking
A/N:It is my first One piece fanfic.
Also I have written up until chapter 18 ( it is not completed yet) but I will post every week ( hopefully)
By the way English isn't my first language so there might be mistakes.
Chapter 1
It takes a small change to cause a ripple or at least a person to influence an entire universe.
It might seem impossible for a single person to change the course of fate but those who say that ,have never met a person with the knowledge of the future or at least a specific future that can always change.
To make things simple I have been reborn.
I don't remember how I died exactly but I thing it was an illness or over stress.
Pretty ironic as I was a doctor.
I was young and I wanted to help as much as I could, so I neglected myself.
Not starve or anything like that ,I just didn't rest properly.
The only time I didn't study or help at the hospital was when I went out with my friends or watched anime.
It was a little tiring lifestyle but somehow I managed.
And then suddenly I died without even knowing the cause.
I accepted the fact that I died because as I doctor I know that death is a part of life and sometimes inevitable.
I thought it was time to relax.
But noooo! I have to fricking be born again!!
And let me tell you witnessing your own birth is disgusting and I am probably traumatized forever.
To see your self getting from the womb of your mother can do that to a person.
When I was born ( again) I couldn't see very well but I could hear only two voices.
It seems that the fact ,that babies can understand from the womb so you talk to them during pregnancy, is partially true.
I can hear the sounds but I can't distinguish the words.
Another problem with my situation is that I can't move or see pretty well.
I only can see blurs but I am kind of shocked that I can't feel my eyes burning from the usual bright light at hospitals.
Am I not born in a hospital or my senses are so screwed that I can't even see that bright light
I sighed mentally.
'One thing was certain I am stucked for a long time'
Well it took some months to adjust to my new situation.
I cried only when I was hungry or I need to be cleaned.
And I slept a lot. So much that sometimes I think that my new life is a punishment for neglecting myself.
My mom was always nagging me to sleep more, if she knew that I was alive she will probably be satisfied with my predicament.
She always told me I was a cute baby and I grew up fast.
Well now she should be pleased!
I am a cute baby again.
Or at least I hope so because I haven't seen my parents faces.
It was few months later that I saw my mother and let's say I was shocked.
I wasn't shocked from her dark green hair that should be impossible to have normally.
I was because she was Makino! The pretty and kind lady from One piece !
And apparently I was her daughter.
Well I can admit that when I show her for the first time I freaked out so much that I fainted.
Not one of my proudest moments, especially when I woke up and I saw how distressed she looked.
She must thought that I was ill.
After the doctor or at least I think he is one reassured her, she calmed down and started smiling at me.
A smile so bright that I thought I looked at the sun.
Well at least I now knew that I had pretty good genetics.
Better than my previous one at least.
We returned to the bar where she tried to teach me stuff.
I didn't understand a thing.
The only thing I understood was my name.
Tsukiko, it means moon child from my limited knowledge in Japanese.
The only thing I understood was that my father was at the sea or something like that.
I only understood the word tou-san and kaito and I assumed he is at the sea at the moment.
It was a little frustrating to not be able to comprehend what she said but with time I understood more and more.
I was a little curious about where exactly I was in the time frame but my question was answered when I was 4 years old.
I was sitting at the table trying to learn how to read Japanese, when I heard a loud bam.
I lifted my head and looked at the door.
There was Garp holding a little luffy.
"Welcome Garp-san. How may I help you? " asked my mom politely.
"Makino I need you to look after Luffy for a while " he replied.
"Of course Garp-san. It will be my pleasure. After all he can play with Tsukiko, she doesn't have many friends" replied mom.
I mentally snorted. It wasn't my fault that the kids at my age were annoying! They cried about everything and I preferred to read.
I even tried to tell them fantasy stories but they only laughed at me and said I was a liar!
The audacity of some people really annoys me.
" Hi! I am Luffy! I am 3 years old! " he said proudly.
" Hello Luffy. I am Tsukiko. I am 4 years old. Pleased to meet you"I said with a smile.
Little luffy was adorable!! He looked like a puppy.
"What are you doing? " he asked. curiously.
" I am reading. Or at least I try to. I understand most of the words but I have some difficulty with some of them"I answered.
" But that's boring!! " he exclaimed.
"Well I can tell you some stories if you want. I know many great tales of civilizations different than ours and lands from a different time and space" I answered while waving my hands enthusiastically.
He looked confused,probably because of some words I used.
Garp laughed .
"Aren't you a smart brat? You will be a very good addition to the Marines" he said.
" I am honored Garp- san but I am afraid I will become a doctor. A sailing doctor maybe but not a government one. " I answered.
" You should think about it brat. Considering your father, you will be strong too. Oops I wasn't supposed to say that! " he said and I froze.
My father? I knew my father was a pirate but I didn't think he would be someone strong.
Then I remembered my red hair with green highlights and I panicked.
Was Shanks my father? I thought the first time he came to Fussa was when Luffy was around six or something! Not a year before he was born.
Well not that it changes much.
He isn't here and he will never probably settle down. If meet him , I am going to try to consider him as my dad.
But he still chose the sea over his family.
I am not mad at him after all I will probably choose the same.
I will leave Makino even if she is my mother .
I feel a little guilty that I don't love her as much as my other mother. I see her more like a fictional one or as a second mother. Not the first, never the first. I am not going to replace my real one.
I want to have a family here thought even if I am not blood - related with them.
I want to live this life going on some adventures after all I promised my real mother that I would travel the world as a doctor when I would be qualified for that job.
But I died so I am going fulfill my promise beyond the grave.
" So can you tell me a story Tsukiko? " asked Luffy.
" Of course " I replied and started to tell him one of the olds anime.
I told him about Inuyasha .
His eyes were shining with every battle.
"I want a flying animal too! And a talking fox with powers! It is so cool" he said.
" Well there are many devil fruits out there, so some of them might give those powers" I answered.
Devil fruit? " he asked.
" It ' s a fruit that gives you powers" I replied.
" So it is a mystery fruit " he said.
I laughed and said " Yes it is a mystery fruit"
" Tell me more" he begged.
" Maybe tomorrow, it is pretty late. We should go to sleep " I said and I ruffled his hair.
He pouted and he was so cute.
He was one of my favorite characters.
Robin and Marco were the others.
And Ace was my husband! I absolutely adored him and I was so heartbroken when he died!
" But it is not that late" he insisted.
" If you don't sleep now, you won't get up in the morning. And then you will miss breakfast " I said.
He gasped and looked terrified.
" I am going to sleep "he said while running upstairs.
I chuckled.
He was so easy to manipulate.
" Mom I am going to sleep. Goodnight" I said and kissed her.
"Goodnight and sweet dreams honey" she answered and I went to sleep.
Now that luffy is here, things are going to be more fun.
