Author: I apologize for the deletion of the previous Dragged Into story. But I hope you enjoy my re-written one, which is this one. I'm sorry again. Please enjoy and review in the end!

I don't own anything except this plot and my OC.


The world seemed to be spinning as I felt the water pull me upwards. But somehow, beneath the dark sea, I felt at home and safe. The waters caressed me all around as if telling me everything was alright. Nothing was wrong.

Where am I? I wondered because my surroundings were still blurred from my sleep. I felt the tug again, but harsher and I realized I couldn't breath and the taste of salt in my tongue.

"Look up…" A voice had said. I didn't know why, but somehow I trusted it. The sight finally became clear when I looked up and I saw flashes of light above the waters. The need for air finally snapped me out of my blank state and I knew I was drowning. I pushed against the waves, moving both my arms and legs upwards, reaching for the surface. I gasped for the air when I finally got to the surface, taking deep breaths, but the world above the waters was even harsher to me than the sea below as the thunder roared and flashes of lightning blinded my sight. I tried to call for help, but the waves crashed me from above and I fell back into the darkness.


After the violent storm subsided, a familiar ship is seen on the now calm sea and a certain crew was louder and livelier as ever.

"Luffy! What were you thinking jumping into the sea like that?!" Nami yelled, hitting the captain again on the head. Luffy pouts and rubbed his sore head which already had tons of bumps.

He seemed uncertain of his words as he looked at the calm, vast sea. "I thought I heard a voice though…so I-" Nami growled, cutting him off and continues to scold him.

Brooke laughs, his familiar 'Yohohohoho!' carried by the wind, "Such a violent storm! Good thing I didn't die! Wait… I AM already dead! YOHOHOHOHO!" He then does his 45 degrees angle at the side of the ship which no one was even looking at. Frankie sighs, looking at the damages of poor Thousand Sunny done by the violent storm then turns to Chopper and Usopp who were waiting for his words.

He scratches the back of his head, "Sorry, Ussop, your plants were thrown off by the wind but you can still plant more." Ussop nods his head then Frankie turns to Chopper, giving him a thumbs up, "The medic room will be fixed, don't worry about it!" Chopper sighs in relief.

"Thank you, Frankie!"

Throughout the storm, the only one who didn't seem to be of any help was Zoro. He had managed to miraculously sleep through it and he even seemed to escape Nami's brutal wrath thanks to Luffy's idiocy.

Sanji gives the cup of herbal tea he had just made after the storm ceased to Robin who was sitting down on a recliner chair deep in thought as she stares out the sea, something in her stomach made her nauseous and she didn't know why.

"Thank you, Sanji." She smiles and Sanji, as per usual, flew in a cloud of hearts, saying stuff about going into the gates of hell for her. But Robin continues to stare out at sea, wondering why she felt so nervous.

A memory resurfaces in her mind from her younger years and Robin frowned, taking a sip of the herbal tea to calm her nerves. She pursed her lips and looked at her reflection through the tea. It couldn't be true though… Professor had told her it was just a myth created by lunatic people. It was a fake to begin with because a real poneglyph couldn't be destroyed.

She sighed, staring out at the sea again. Her brows creased in concentration. Was she just thinking too much about it? She looked at her crew then back at the sea, the memory still in her mind. She sighed again, taking another sip.

The sun was still covered by the thick clouds, but this time it didn't seem to look like it was going to rain. Nami sighs, looking at the log poses on her wrist; all seemed to be erratically moving and it worried her, did that mean all the islands were too dangerous? She looks at the monster trio who were lounging around (except Sanji who was serving snacks) then back at the log poses. She didn't need to be worried, she just needed them to get to an island. That was her job after all.

"Oi, oi, guys! There's a boat in front of us!" Frankie called behind the wheel and Nami looked over, squinting her eyes at the horizon and he was right. There was a boat just a few miles from them, but… why was it shining?

Before Nami could ask, Usopp was already looking through his sniper goggles to see what was shining.

Nami leans over to him, "What do you see, Usopp?" The others as well were curious as they stared at the sniper, waiting for his words. Usopp's jaw dropped when he saw what was on the boat then gasped.

Luffy was grinning as he looked at Usopp excitedly, "What is it?! What is it, Usopp?!"

"It's gold! A mountain of them!" There were different kinds of reactions on everyone's faces, but the most evident reaction was that they finally got some loot. Everyone was quick to move as Nami began instructing them.

"Frankie, steer the ship towards that boat! Don't lose it!"

"Aye, aye, SUPER!"

"Zoro, Usopp, pull down the sails! We need to get more wind to get there!"

"Yes, ma'am!"

"Chopper, make sure that there aren't any other ships heading towards it!"

"Aye, aye, Nami!"

"Yohohoho, I'll be playing the violin to commemorate this event!" Brooke grabbed his violin and started to play in the center while everyone else was running around. Robin smiled and decided to join them, using her Hana Hana no mi to try to create wind. Luffy was just jumping around, excited to see the gold.


*Somewhere in the New World*

On a spring-summer island, inhabited by local people, an earthquake happened. It was unexpected, but short so no one had gotten injured or hurt.

"Is everyone alright?" The town's mayor of the island shouts, slowly standing up from the ground still shaken from the sudden movement. Everyone nodded and whispers started to break out. The mayor clears his throat and everyone looks at him. He was a bald, chubby bearded man and was well-respected by everyone who lived on the island.

"Get back to work now! This was just probably an aftershock from an underwater volcano we found weeks ago." Everyone seemed to take his word and went back to their usual business, but most kept whispering not believing the mayor's words.

The mayor sighed and looked up at the mountain. He was worried. It had been 10 years since… He shook his head and put back his friendly smile on his face and went back to his usual business, see if he can be of any help with his people.

Now, the people didn't notice that after the earthquake, a huge boulder near the top of the mountain began to crumble and a chilled, yet charred metallic door was seen. A sinister darkness began to leak from the cracks on the rusted metal, making the cracks even bigger.


*Back to the Strawhats*

It was weird how the boat didn't move from its spot even thought there was no anchor to hold it, but who cares?! Mountain of gold coins, people!

Nami ignored the weirdness of this and glared at Luffy, "Don't. Drop. A. Single. Coin." Luffy nodded seriously and Nami sighed, pointing towards the direction of the boat and the captain giddily jumps of the ship and lands on the boat causing the gold on the top pile to almost fall into the sea.

"I SAID DON'T DROP ANY OF THEM!"

"Sorry!"

The ones who were scavenging the boat were only Luffy and Sanji, seeing that having too many people on board might make the boat sink so Nami didn't want that. Everyone else on the ship started to talk about what they wanted to buy, but Robin had other problems when she looked at the words written on the side of the boat.

The day has come, let's all set sail!

The growing nervousness was worrying Robin as she read the first set of words. It might have looked normal and friendly towards the others, but somehow those words felt like they were directed to her. Did it mean something? Robin sighed as a headache came and she held her head in her hand. Is she thinking too much about it?

Luffy was singing as he threw the gold coins into the sack Nami gave him, a cheeky grin on his face as he thought about what to buy.

"I'm definitely going to get that statue I wanted for Merry…" He then looked towards Sanji who was throwing the coins into his sack as well, "Sanji, what are you going to buy with your money?" Sanji stopped and scratched the beard of his chin, thinking thoughtfully about what to buy.

"Well, I was thinking-" He turned to answer Luffy, but he was already in his own world.

"Statue~! Statue~! Gonna buy a statue~!" He sang and Sanji felt a tick mark on his head.

Without warning, he kicked Luffy into the pile of gold, yelling, "LISTEN WHEN I'M ANSWERING YOUR QUESTION!"

Nami gasped in horror as most of the coins started to drop into the sea. She glared at Sanji, "You idiots! You are wasting my gold!"

"Nami, it's our gold…" Usopp says, slightly nervous but the glare on Nami's face made him back off in fear that she'd start attacking him.

Luffy didn't feel any pain when he was kicked through the pile of gold, but somehow he found himself in a room. He looked at the huge hole that was made and saw the gold outside. This must be the cabin of the boat… Luffy thought as he took a look around, scratching the back of his head. A growl made him whip his head to see a dog, its teeth bared at him. It was a brown pitbull, having a height of 21 inches (just right at the knees of Luffy), and its eyes were colored green.

Now before Luffy could say or do anything, the dog jumped and almost took a bite out of Luffy's arm but Luffy was fast enough to dodge. He glares at the dog, using his Conqueror's haki, but the dog just growled at him even more ferociously. Luffy's eyes widened taking a step back in shock and the dog took this as a chance to attack, finally biting deep into the right leg of Luffy.

"OW!" Sanji heard Luffy yell from within the gold and he went to investigate what the idiot was doing.

"Is Luffy alright?" Chopper quickly asks being a doctor and all after hearing the sound, and Nami just nodded her head.

"Yea, he's fine. I mean, what could hurt him?"

When Sanji finally got through the hole, which he had kicked Luffy through, he saw his captain in a very sad state; let's just say the dog had gotten more attacks on him than Luffy did. The captain already had two bites that were bleeding and somehow his right eye was purple, while the dog suffered no damages except the bump on its head. Sanji took out a cig, lit it up, and then took a puff.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?!" He shouted, quickly kicking the dog through the roof of the room. Before Luffy could explain, Sanji had already kicked him. He was about to start scolding him when the sound of slight movement from behind made him whip his head and he saw an unconscious woman lying on the ground; she had black hair that was strewn all around the place and was wearing a black hoodie, blue jeans, and no shoes.

The navigator was even more furious when she saw something (she didn't see what it was) blasted through the gold, making more of her gold fall into the sea. What the hell were those idiots doing?! Nami thought, tick marks appearing on her forehead and Chopper tried to calm her down, which was deemed unsuccessful by Usopp and Brooke when Nami just glared at Chopper.

When she saw Sanji coming out of the hole, she was about to start yelling but stopped seeing the girl in his arms. Chopper's doctor urges was quick to react when Luffy came out with severe looking injuries.

Usopp tilted his head, How did Sanji bite Luffy's arm and leg? But that was a question that will remain unanswered for now as Chopper started to tend to both Luffy and the girl.

But everyone had the same thoughts going through their heads, why was there a girl in a boat filled with gold coins?

Let's ignore Brooke's perverted thoughts though. No one wants to know his.
