Here is a new story for ya all! I repeat I do not own any OP characters,they belong to Oda-sama but the OCs present inside are mine
The sounds of waves crashing against the Sunny-Go's hull and the slow hum of the wind were the only sound you could hear,the Mugiwara Kaizoku were silently minding their own buisness:Brook was seated in the Aquarium room,writing some song;Robin was in the Obsevation Room,reading one of the many books inside;Nami was busy editing one of her map;Franky and Usopp were making plans on new weapons for the Sunny,Zoro was snoring gently on the deck,under a tree' shade;Chopper was making some medecines in the infirmary just in case;Sanji was cooking lunch for the crew and the captain,Monkey D. Luffy,was seated on the Sunny's head,staring at the horizon,his trade mark smile plastered on his face. Nothing could disturb this...
"LUFFY!"snarled a feminine voice
Said person,turned his head to stare at the redhead who was holding a crumpled paper in her stomped to the ship's head,holding the parchment before pointing to a brown stain on it
"What. Is. This?"articulated angrily the navigator
Luffy's eyes widdened and he quickly stared away,wistling
"I...I...I don't know what ya're talking about"stuttured the captain
Luffy only added fuel to the raging fire
"THIS IS A CHOCOLATE STAIN !"yelled Nami,grabbing the crew's attention to the two"YOU RUINED A MAP FROM A NEARBY TREASURE,WHICH HAPPENS TO BE ON OUR WAY!"
Luffy laughed nervously before rubbing the chocolate stain out with his thumb then putting it in his mouth
"There!"grinned Luffy"No more stain!"
He was right,there was no more stain...But a big vertical chocolate trail over the map. Nami couldn't take it anymore,she angrily punched the pirate,sending him fly then land in the water
"NAMI!"
"You're completly mad!"
"Mutiny!Nami has decided to take over the Sunny then the World!"
Luffy heard all his nakamas screaming before he sank,he tried to hold his breath like he did for Gear Third but he didn't take one last breath as he surfaced,he just sank. The pirate could feel the water begining to flood his lungs,Luffy,in time like this,cursed his devil fruit,black spots invaded his eyesight,slowly growing.
"Mina...I'm sorry..."
Then he blacked out,drowning slowly
"Don't let him escape!"yelled a top hatted man,a pigeon on his shoulder
Shadows flew past him,chasing the man,a cap hatted man was faster than the other and immediatly tackled the person,stopping his run and their chase. Kaku grabbed the man by the collar as Lucci caught up with him,the brunet glared at the middle-aged bald man
"So...This is the man who knows where Spandam is..."Lucci let out a creepy smile,making said man cower before him
"You better answere the questions we have for you"purred Lucci,rubbing a claw against the man's cheek"Or else..."Lucci let out a dark chuckle"Understand?"
The man nodded
"Good"smirked Jyabura"Because I'm not in the mood to durty my new vest"
"Shut up Jya"replied Kaku"It's not the right time"
"Shaddap,cow!"barked the man
"I'm a giraffe,actually"said calmly Kaku
"While you two,stop at once !"hissed Lucci,when the two listened,the leopard man turned to their prisonnier"You happen to know where a certain someone and I want to know where he is"
"I...I...I know lot of people,sir"smilled nervously the man
Lucci paced back and forth in front of him,smirking evily,promising the man of a long,slow and hurtfull death
"We're looking for Spandam"purred the leopard,making the other male pales drastically"Where is he?"
"W...Who that foo' ? I don't know any Spandam"lied the male
Lucci lost his cold demeanor and angrily grabbed the man's throat before throwing him against a random tree
"Do not"hissed Lucci,standing a fiew feet away from the choking bald man"Lie to me!"
"Stop playing with him!"snarled Jyabura"Let's just torture the answere from him then start sailling our way to this sonovabitch!"
Lucci turned angrily to the wolf man
"What I do for my questioning doesn't concern you,Mutt"replied Lucci
"Whut ! Da ya wanna fight,Sour Puss!"snarled Jyabura
They completly forgot about the man until he spoke
"You'll never find him!"smirked crazyly the man"I won't a thing and he'll keel ya ! He'll keel ya all !"
"Really?"asked Kaifa"How do you plan on doing this?"
The man's smile widdened before he trust his head back then started choking,Blueno and Fukuro ran to him and tried to stop the choking but the man's breath went shallow before he stilled against the tree,Kaku walked to the man and checked for a pulse. He found none.
"He's dead"replied Kaku
"He swallowed his own tongue"added Blueno
Lucci snarled at no one,then a faint sound caught their attention before Lucci felt a great wave of pain in his lung. Hidden by the bushes,someone had shoot the leopard man,when he wasn't looking,right in the chest
"LUCCI!"
The brunet fell on the ground,gasping for breath,blood appering at his mouth's sides,the feline zoan sensed someone kneeling beside him. Kalifa.
"Lucci!"called the blond,her voice making throught the silence in his ears"Lucci!Stay with us!"
Lucci attempted to say something but only more blood poured down his mouth,his eyesight became blurred and the sound the other,chasing the sniper,were slowly beginning to fade
"LUCCI!STAY WITH US!"
Lucci gasped on last breath before his eyes rolled behind his skull
It was the giant pain waves that made Luffy open his eyes and met white,meaning that he wasn't in the infirmary
"Where am I?"
The pirate slowly turned his head at one side,only to meet another pair of eyes,they blinked at each other before realisation drowned down them,Luffy sat up immediatly with Lucci copying him,they stared at each other before pointing their finger at the other
"YOU ! WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE ! ? "yelled the two
Luffy suddenly coughed,little drop of water flew past his lips,landing on Lucci's hand
"Hey ! Watch out,pirate scum !"Lucci tried to stand only to hiss and hold a part of his chest,his shirt was stained red and had a little hole in it
"Get the fuck outta my sight ! "snarled Lucci,he wasn't in good shape to fight with the pirate
"Hey ! I should be the one to shout that !"rasped Luffy before a coughing fit shook his entire body
A giggle made them look away from each other
"Who's there ? ! "called Luffy
"Show yourself you filthy little coward !"snarled Lucci
"My,my"a woman figure appeared before them"What a potty mouth we gotta here!"
The girl was at the same age of Luffy with a nicely curved body and red stripped black shoulder lenght wavy hair,she wore a bright blue gown but what surprised the men was that she had bat wings along with a lizard tail and golden brown cat eyes,the stranger giggled again
"What is it ?"smilled the girl"Cat got yar tongue ?"
"Who're you ? !"snarled Lucci
The girl tilted her head at him
"From where I came from"replied the girl,blinking at Lucci"We say hello to each other before presenting themselve"
"Hi ! I'm Monkey D. Luffy"smiled the boy"What's yar name ?"
The girl's face lit up before she walked to him and shake hand
"Hi ! I'm Tatsu Shawna!"grinned the girl"Nice ta meet ya !"
Luffy shook her hand,grinning like mad,then Shawna turned to Lucci who merely stared/glared at her. Unfazed by it,she sat on the floor,in front of him and stared...stared...stared...After five minutes,she was slightly giving the creep to Lucci...At ten he snapped
"WHAT ? !"Lucci ended in a coughing fit
Shawna blinked then stared again
"I think she wants you to present yourself"said Luffy
Lucci snarled at the pirate
"Lucci"replied curtly the Zoan
"Are you a parent of a fruit called Litchi ?"asked Shawna before she started laughing like mad
Lucci blinked comically at her,just like Luffy,it took five minutes for her to stop
"Sorry,Lulu"smiled the red stripped girl"I couldn't help it"
"Shawna,can we know where we are ?"asked Luffy as Lucci was about to snap again at the young woman
Shawna giggled again before she began floating under the stare of the guys,she 'sat' cross legged and grinned at them
"You are Nowhere and at the same time Somewhere,in the Void and the Fullness"answered Shawna
"That doesn't answere us !"snarled Lucci"I want to know where I'm ! Did ya kidnap me after I was shoot ! ? "
Next to Lucci,Luffy let out a gasp
"OH MY KAMI ! I drowned!"shouted Luffy before coughing
Lucci stared at him,how could the pirate that kicked his ass till next century could drown like a Baka was beyond him
"Ya don't understand"smiled Shawna,floating between the two then upsided down herself"If you two are here...This only mean one thing...You are dead"
Lucci felt like he had been hit by a wall of brick,Luffy didn't feel better about it too,the boy looked so white that the room they were in was darker than him
"Isn't this exiting ? "giggled Shawna
The leopard zoan let out a snarl and made a grab for her but she floated a little higher from his reach
"How can ya said that,ya wretch ! "growled Lucci
"I said that because I'm right and wrong at the same time"smirked Shawna,when she got no answere from the two,she went on"Like I said,you're in the Void and the Fullness so you're dead and alive at the same time"
"Alive ?"whispered Luffy
Shawna nodded vigorously,she turned around herself
"For the two of you finding yourself here mean that you're dead in the human's eyes,as in you're heart stopped beating and you won't breath anymore"explained Shawna"But ! Someone is trying to save you thus why your presence here"
"Will we go back ?"asked Luffy
Shawna lost her smile a little
"It's not my choice to make,the people who are here are also being judged,They decide who lives and who dies"
"They ? Who are They ? "asked Lucci
"We can't name them but I could try to explain,They aren't a person nor They are gods,They could be what you,humans,call them Time,Death,Luck,Karma...This is only what I know from you human"
"You aren't humain"noted Lucci
"Yup ! Nor I am an Angel or a Demon"replied Shawna"I'm just a celestial being nothing more,nothing less"Shawna suddenly hit the palm of her hand"Oh ! I forgot ! Your judgement ended !"
"WHY DIDN'T YA SAID SO ? ! "snarled Lucci,the nerve of that girl!
"Because ya didn't asked,Lulu ! Duh ! "replied Shawna,floating right in front of Luffy"They are quite pleased by your past and your present and if you were alive you would have a brilliant future !"smilled Shawna to the straw hat wearer"But yet ! Death is angry that you didn't send her any death,only your swordman did for that you're gonna be punished"
Luffy had smiled during all her speech but his smile disapeared when he heard he was going to be punished,Shawna let him to float near Lucci's face,the former assassin looked quite smug that Luffy was sentenced to a punishment,he was gonna throught this because he had made good things
"Sorry to burst yar bubble but They aren't pleased by you,your past and your present even made Death want to punish ya herself"replied Shawna,watching innocently as Lucci face went from smug to shocked"In your past and present,you killed innocent people,500 if I recall,Destiny thought it would be good to scar you for that mistake but ya didn't change from one bit,and They saw your future,it was worst than your past and present reunited,for that you'll be punished"
Lucci couldn't believe it,he was speechless and couldn't think of a good remark to make. Shawna giggled at their face and spun meter away
"Your gonna share your punishment with each other"Shawna clapped"Isn't it exiting ? "
No one answered
"Well ! "Shawna clapped one last time"Nothing held ya here now ! "She landed gracefullly on her feet and walked to the two downhearted men,she grabbed their hands and easily made them stand"Let's get ya more presentable for your 'comeback'!"
"How so?"rasped Luffy
Shawna smiled again and put her hands on his chest,they went throught him,Lucci and Luffy stared widde eyed at her,the pirate could feel her hands roaming around his chest then lungs,she grabbed something before pulling out,in her hands was water. Lot of it.
"No wonder ya drowned"replied Shawna,she 'let go off' the water which fell with a 'splash!' before walking to Lucci who eyes her warily,she plunge her hand through his chest and took out a bloody bullet,the wound on Lucci's chest start pouring blood,unfazed by it,Shawna threw the bullet away then breath on her hand before affixing it on his wound,it glow a pale blue as she put it away and left the Zoan with no scar on his pectoral
"How..."began Lucci
"Considere it as a gift and an apology"replied Shawna
"Apology ? "inquired Luffy
Shawna simply smiled then waved bye-bye,the devil fruit users didn't understand at first but they felt a pull on their navel and the white room disapeared from them
Lucci's eyes snapped open before he started coughing and gasping for breath
"Oh my Kami!"Lucci felt someone hug him and redhair clouded his eyes
"Wait ! Redhair ? Since when Kaku has long hair and a girly voice ?"thought Lucci
"Ya gave us a scare ya know ? You're such a burden sometime"replied a male
"Did the Mutt caught cold or something ? This isn't his voice but I know those dumb remarks can only come from that pea size brain !"
"Shut the fuck up,Mutt !"rasped Lucci which only come out as "Grut dre fruck rhup,Mrut!"
Lucci tried to push away 'Kaku' but he felt drained,as if he had been plunged down a giant bucket of Sea Water
"Guys ! "reprimanded a voice"Let him rest,he was hit hard and the swimming didn't help at all,let him rest"
"Kalifa should rest as she surely caught something!"
"We'll let you rest,Luffy"said the voice"If you need any help with something,Sanji is in the kitchen,he'll be happy to help you or warn someone to help you"replied Chopper before exiting the infirmary
Lucci nodded sleepily before sitting up abrutply on his bed
"Di...Did...He call me LUFFY!"
Lucci shoot from his bed,only to stumble as his feet touched the floor,he stood up and find himself facing a mirror. A mirror reflecting Mugiwara no Luffy's reflection. Lucci screamed like mad
Luffy let out a groan,something hurt like a son of a bitch,he opened his eyes and sat up with difficutlies,he scratched his head sleepily before looking around
"This doesn't look like Chopper's infirmary"
Something landed softly on his shoulder before it rubbed against his cheek and cooed loudly,Luffy turned his head and stared at the white,tie wearing pigeon
"Hello you"smiled Luffy,scratching the bird"What are you doing hère ? Where's your owner ?"
The pigeon blinked at him and let out a questioning "Coo ? "
The door opened and Luffy faced a blond woman
"He's awake!"called the blond to the deck,soon a man with a scar across his left eyes and a square nosed man entered the infirmary,Luffy's eyes widdened as he recognised Kaku
"You!"growled Luffy,putting himself in a fighting position,frightening the cap wearer whose eyes widdened and stepped back"I'm gonna wipe yar ass!"
"Wait ! Wait ! Wait ! "panicked Kaku
Luffy growled harder
"Hey !"barked Jyabura,putting himself in front of Luffy"Quit your bitching mood,Pussy Cat ! We helped save our sorry ass and this is how ya thank us ! I was right Kalifa,we should have let him die in the wood ! "
"Stop it Jyabura ! "said curtly Kalifa"He got a nasty shoot that I'm surprised we were able to save him"She turned to Luffy"Listen Lucci,I know you hate when we said this but you need to rest,you got hurt pretty bad"
Before Luffy could utter a word,Kalifa had put him back in the bed
"Call if you need somethin"replied Kalifa,exiting the room
Luffy blinked,once then twice
"She called me LUCCI ! ? "
A soft coo made him stare at Hattori who stood in front of a mirror. His reflection was Rob Lucci's. Luffy screamed his lungs out
R&R
