Had this idea as I was listening to music and watching anime on crack. Inspiration comes from the weirdest of places I tell ya. I drew the cover pic, just to give an idea of what she looks like. Sorry if it's not clear enough but a picture will be made soon.
Exactly how does one react to waking up in a world, in a situation that is both a dream and a nightmare... as stupid as that sounds. I went to sleep listening to music and reading a fanfic. So of course I'm not going to question my dreams... unless they're real... then shit hits the fan.. At first it seemed normal... but the more I slept the harder it became to wake up.
(Dreamscape)/1st POV/
I was swimming smoothly through the deep blue sea without a care in the world. The world of fantasy was my blissful escape from reality as I took on a mythical appearance. I was beautiful, clear mocha skin, perfect hourglass figure, large bust covered in a black bandeau and heart shaped face. From my hips down a long white smooth scaled mermaid tail that reminded me of an eel's tail with long transparent turquoise side fins. My dorsal fin starting on my lower back, just under my tail bone, and my tail fin was a smooth rounded fan shape. As I moved forward my icy blue hair flowed like a wisp around me, going past my hips.
I looked around the empty blue sea before pushing up and propelling myself up to the water surface. My bright blue eyes shining with excitement as the round eyes were framed with icy blue eyelashes. I broke the surface and whipped my head back, reaching a hand and slicking my hair out of my face. I looked around as the gills on my neck flared slightly and slicked close. I looked around as I lowered my dorsal fin slightly. Using my tail to stay a float. There was a ship.
I craned my head slightly as if to look on the deck but the ship's was well higher then the sea's surface and the laughter was drawing my attention. It sounded like fun. Making a choice and dived back down and moved closer to the bow of the ship and lightly touched the keel. My fingers traced over the barnacles that anchored themselves on it before noting a section in the ship that seemed to act as a panel. More curious I lightly pressed my hands on the panel, half hoping it would open or pop out. When it didn't after a few pushes I gave up. Huffing, bubbles passing out from my nose, I swam along the keel up to where the sea surface ended on the boat and raised my head out of the water. I looked up, I was on the side of the ship now and the laughing was more clear.
"ShiShiShi! Sanji nē! Watashi wa o niku ga hoshīdesu! Niku niku!" I paused at that and raised a brow, I don't speak Japanese but the two things I can remember is Sanji and Niku. Sanji being a certain blonde cook from one of my favourite animes and Niku being the Japanese word for Meat. So instantly I knew it was Luffy and this was the Thousand Sunny. The ship came into full focus and I could see Sunny in all his glory.
"Watashi wa sudeni anata ni chūshoku anata no gomu baka o ataemashita!" I thought for a bit and giggled at Gomu and Baka. Rubber Idiot is a fond way to describe Luffy sometimes. Sighing I dove back down as Luffy's laugh was carried down by the winds to the waters. Even fully submerged I could hear his laugh. I loved his laugh. Giggling I swam further down before turning back up to the ship. Grinning I started swimming at fast speeds to gather up enough momentum to launch fully over the ship and dive on the other side. I started spinning with my hands pointed straight above me, to effectively cut through the waters. When I felt my hands break the surface I gave one more mighty fan of my tail and felt light afterwards. I looked down under me as I curved my body. I was well over the ship, just barely over the look out nest. I held a soft smile on my face as I looked down to the deck, time slowing in that moment.
Luffy was staring up at me, eyes wide with stars in them and his famous grin threatening to split his face. Chopper and Usopp were hugging each other, screaming their heads off as they must have not been expecting me to come jumping out. Nami was staring up at me with wide eyes and mouth a gape. Sanji was staring but his eyes were turning into hearts as a goofy smile made his way onto his face. Zoro... well he was sleeping by the tree so he didn't really have anything to show. Brook must be inside, Robin in her library and Franky down in his station working on another Super invention. Time seemed to return to normal as I dived down on the other side of the ship and quickly swam down to be under the keel again, so that if they look over the side of the ship they'll think I disappeared.
"SUGOI!" I laughed softly as Luffy's voice cut through the waters clearly again. I could hear the others but the waters were muffling them. Snickering I looked down to my tail and smiled. This is fun, I don't want it to end. That's when my vision started going dark. I'm waking up aren't I? Sighing I fought off the feeling a little more and swam up to the side of the boat, the part I jumped out from and not dived in. With a big swish of my tail and grabbed onto the railing and managed to pulled myself up to sit on the rail as my long tail dangled off the side of the ship, lightly splashing in the waters. I could see Luffy, Usopp and Chopper looking over the railing and Sanji dancing around like the love cook he is. I giggled as Nami had her eyes closed, pinching the bridge of her nose, grumbling in Japanese under her breath but I could guess she was talking about the stupidity of her captain and male crew mates. My giggling drew their attention and they all turned to look at me. Now that I looked at them I was a few sizes smaller than Madame Shyarly, which is funny if you ask me. Luffy grinned like an excited kid as he bolted over to me while Usopp and Chopper yelled in surprise with Nami. Sanji just cried out, "Utsukushī ningyo!" , like the love fool he is around beautiful woman. Soon Luffy was standing right in front of me.
"Sakana no josei o oi!" I tilt my head slightly and waved to him before my vision darkened further. I started feeling heavier and started dipping backwards. I'm sure they must have noticed something up with me-wait notice? No No No, that's not right... They should just fade, wait HOW am I aware of this, wait wait wait-
My eyes lazily opened as my whole body felt heavy and sore. My mind was foggy and my eyes squinting to close as they ached at the little light that flooded in them, even though her room was dark thanks to the curtains keeping most of the sun's morning rays out. I groggily sat up and held my head as it ached. More than usual, but hey sleeping to longer than usually does that to me. My dark brown eyes adjusted to the light and I stretched. I looked down at my figure and snickered at the drastic difference from my dream-self and reality.
I held a pear body shape and small chest. My mocha skin was sprinkled with dark spots, almost like freckles, in random spots. My hair, short and thick, ending at shoulders and frizzy. I pinched at my soft thighs and giggled softly as the muscle wasn't toned and was a little flabby. I was dressed in sleeping shorts and a black bra. I yawned once more before getting up to get ready for the day.
Well it's not much but hey I like it X3 And I hope you liked it too ^^
