Confused Futures
A cold hard breeze blew harshly against the black and white striped sails of the Thousand Sunny; rain thrashing down on the grass deck of the ship like bullets. It was around October in the grand line, but for the straw hats it was more like the rainy season of spring.
"Franky, Usopp hurry up and lift the sails!" Long orange, wavy hair whipped around in the rain. A slim young woman in a blue bikini top with faded skinny jeans yelled out to two men on the deck. She was known as Nami, the navigator of the crew. She had the dream of mapping out the whole world! Now it was onto the men, one was the shipwright of the crew, a tall cyborg in a speedo with a very unusual hair do. Then the other was a strong young man, the sniper of the crew. Though, his actions told a different story, he seemed to be quite the scaredy cat.
"Y-yes ma'am!" they both replied in unison. The sniper saluted in the orange haired lady's direction, then hastily made his way up the mast, along with the cyborg. Usopp was the first to make it up the mast, climbing to the side along the thin pole that held the cloth of their sails. He pulled them up towards the pole to wrap them in place. Franky was on the other side of the pole, also wrapping the sails up. Usopp, being the fearful person he is, looked to his side only to spot the humongous wave heading straight for the side of the ship. At first he thought it was a herd of sea kings coming to swallow their boat whole, but that wasn't even close to the size of the wave. His eyes went wide with fear as he froze in spot, the rain still harshly crashing down on them.
"Na-Nami look!" Usopp shouted out to the commanding Navigator, her being the one with the only true sense of logic. Everyone currently on the deck of the ship. looked in the direction of Usopp's terrified gaze. Everyone froze in place, the wave was almost upon them now. Luffy, the raven haired captain of the crew, waltzed out of the kitchen. A large piece of meat hung out of his mouth. He wore an open red vest, it showed off the terrifying scar in the shape of an X on his chest. Below that he wore bright blue shorts. Along with a yellow cloth that wrapped tightly around his abdomen. Luffy rocked side to side with the swaying of the ship, the meat doing the same before disappearing into his mouth.
"Woah! What's with the wave!?" Luffy yelled out as he put his hand up to his forehead to block the harsh rain from his eyes. He had a very strange smile to those who didn't know him. That smile of his seemed to stretch just a little too big; making the phrase "smile from ear to ear" seem real. The captains excitement literally had him on his heels in astonishment. Nami broke free of her moment of pure terror, and turned to looked angrily over to her captain.
"No shit Luffy! Now hold onto som-" Nami yelled at him, clearly pissed off at her captains stupidity, but she was cut off by the wave finally crashing down onto the ship. They had no time to activate a Coup De Burst, that wouldn't even matter though, they were completely out of cola. There was just enough time to grab a hold of something on the ship. Nami had gotten a hold of the mast with Chopper, their half human-half reindeer doctor, wrapped in her arms protectively. Franky and Usopp had remained at the top of the mast, being the first ones to feel the wave. Luckily they both had wrapped their bodies around the pole connecting the sails to the mast. Brook, the skeleton musician of the crew, had his shirt pinned to the deck of the Sunny by Yubashiri. It was the sword that belonged to the obvious swordsman of the crew, Zoro, also known as Luffy's right hand man. Robin held down Sanji and Zoro, including herself, with many hands that sprouted out of the deck like flowers. Robin was the archaeologist for the strawhat crew that possessed the power of the Hana Hana No Mi, a devil fruit that gave her the power of having multiple limbs. The wave finally finished its rampage, having already soaked the ship and everyone on it. There was a mild amount of damage to the ship, but it could easily be fixed by Franky. The ship thrashed about a bit, but the waters around them soon calmed back down. The storm they had been in left almost as soon as it came. The grand line was surely a place of many mysteries.
Nami let go of Chopper and sighed out of relief. Everyone looked to be there, but just in case she made a head count. Chopper, Usopp, Brook, Robin, Sanji, Zoro, Franky and...where was their idiot captain? At times like these the navigator almost wished she had put some sort of tracking device on him. Everyone else seemed to had gotten the hint and started to call out for their raven haired captain. They even started to wave around meat in the air, hoping to attract him. Not even a peep was heard on the ship, except for the calling of the captains name. Only the gentle crashing of the waves on the side of the ship were their answer…
