So I kinda wanna try a fem. Luffy story and since I really love Lawlu that's what I'm going to make the main pairing as. I go this idea from reading one too many sad angst stories. Most of the ones I read were by The Dark Crimson Blood. I absolutely love their work.
Anyways! I do not own One piece! I do ship Lawlu all the way!
Again, please enjoy. Reviews would be appreciated!

Prologue:
Maybe it was better this way. Better that she leave this world without them knowing. Although it probably wouldn't have mattered whether or not she had said anything. They wouldn't care. They never do.
They never noticed her. Never noticed her pain. The tears she cried. The screams she let out. They never noticed her struggles.
And even if they had it was already too late. It had been for a very long time. She closed her eyes the wind gently ruffled her raven hair. She smiled.
One step forward. The sound of a door opening.
A second step. The sound of rushing feet coming towards her.
She fell. A hand reaching out for her but missing by a breath.
Onyx colored eyes looked back to see who it was. Her heart broke once more but she smiled through it. It was dumb hope to think that it would be them. Her eyes closed once more.
She listened to the sound of rushing wind. It soothed her and it sounded almost like a lullaby.
Splat!
She lied on the ground smiling looking peaceful. A red rose blooming underneath her painting her red. Some screamed. Some cried. Some even vomited, but only one looked at her understandably with sorrow.
They held out their hand and she took it. It had been her choice. However...
Death would always mourn those who willing sought her.
"May your life in the next be a happy one..."
She walked away not one person taking notice. All too busy looking at the now dead girl.
...
"Sister," a soft deep voice called out to Death, "why do you cry?"
"I cry because I am mourning another life that I have taken."
"...So kind hearted you are sister."
"What is truly kindness, Brother? Is it taking a chance of breath away before they live? Taking them away from their hardships when so many other have overcome the same? Is that truly kindness, Brother?"
Blue eyes looked at her, "In some cases it might as well be. Loneliness is the worst kind of pain. Because even death is better than being lonely, Sister." He stood up ruffling her long wavy raven locks.
"...Have you ever been lonely Brother?"
He smiled warmly, a tad bit of sadness mixing in as well. "Once, but that was a very, very,very, long time ago." He waved her over signalling her to follow.
She stood and walked slowly to where he was. He wiped his hand over a glass window.
"These are this years new Ghosts. The new prey for drawing that thing out." He waited, "Recognize any?"
Death looked at it closely. Her eyes widened when she saw. "The girl..."
Her Brother smiled, "Yes. I have a feeling about her. A good one. If she manages to survive this she'll be granted new life, or anything else her heart desires, but she must survive and win."
Death looked worried, "I wonder if she can do it...?"
He shook his head smiling at the girl in the window fondly, "She can. She's a D after all."
The girl in the windows view grinned widely hands crossed behind her back. She seemed to looking at the spot where she died before turning back.
Death watched smiling as well, "Damn those D's." She chuckled shaking her head, "I always fall for their charm."
Her Brother grinned, "Indeed you do Sister. Indeed you do, but I do as well. I wonder how this one's going to shake things up."
