AN: Hello~ so this is my first fanfic on this, so please go easy on me! So, here's the first chapter! :D
Disclaimer: I do not own OP, but I do own my OC :)
Chapter 1:
"Akane!"
"…." No response.
"AKANE!"
"…." Again, no response.
"AKANE!" The teacher, Mr. Sato, came up to the girls' desk and banged a book on the sleeping girls' head making her jump up with a yelp.
"Who the fu-" She began furiously, rubbing her head, but stopped when she saw it was her teacher waking her up.
"Ms. Akane, I suggest you listen to a teacher when they're calling you and not fall asleep." The teacher advised. Akane grumbled as she heard the chuckling of her friends behind her: Luffy, Nami, Usopp and then there was Sanji who was glaring at the teacher.
"Yeah, yeah…." She muttered, annoyed.
"Ms. Akane!" The teacher once again called and Akane gave an annoyed look at the teacher.
"What?!" She half demanded.
"Since you were asleep I'm guessing you don't know about the transfer student." He told her.
"Yeah you're right. I don't." She simply stated; twisting her hair around her finger- a habit she had gotten used to since she was young. More chuckles filled throughout the room at the reply.
Mr. Sato was about to say something but sighed instead. "I don't see how you became Vice-President of Student Council… but since you are, you'll be showing him around the school." He pointed to the new student while Akane completely ignored the new kid.
"Wait, what about Robin? She's the President!" She complained.
"If you don't remember, Robin's on a trip to a Fossil Museum- a privilege she got from being at the top of class; unlike someone here."
"Oh yeah. How could I forget?" Akane chuckled- she really was forgetful. Robin was one of her closest friends and yet she forgot about her little trip, being in another class as her friend didn't really help.
"So, like I was saying, go show him around the school." Mr. Sato rubbed his temples annoyed.
"Fine." Akane whined but got up from her seat and walked towards the front of the class- now noticing the transfer student. He had… green hair? "Whoa, are you a delinquent or something? Did ya bleach your hair?" She blurted out, receiving more laughter from the class. The boy glared at her but didn't say anything.
"Akane!" The teacher yelled, feeling bad for the new student. "It might not look like it, but he was born with that hair! Now stop dilly-dallying and get going!" He scolded.
"Okay, okay!" She waved to the class and walked off, the new student following behind hesitantly.
"So, that's actually your hair? Like since you were born?" Akane asked seriously, staring at the green hair.
"So what if it is?" He finally responded with his deep voice.
"Ehhh~ that's cool! You actually replied too!" She laughed and walked forward, her hands behind her head. "So, what's your name?"
"Zoro."
"Zoro, eh? That's cool. I'm Akane, though I'm guessing you know that thanks to the asshole teacher we have in there." She giggled.
"Hn."
"Sooo hungryyy~" Luffy grabbed his stomach while it growled.
"When aren't you?" Nami sighed, shaking her head.
"Can't we go ahead and go to the cafeteria?!" The 'leader' of the group whined.
"No! Not until Akane-chwan comes here!" Sanji interrupted. "I will never eat before a lady!"
"You might not but we don't mind!" Usopp joined, clutching his stomach as well.
"You guys are bastards!" He snapped, kicking the two. "Nami-swan~ you go ahead and eat, I'll bring these bastards when Akane-chwan gets here!" He assured while Nami chuckled and walked away, waving teasingly to Luffy and Usopp.
"Damn it Nami!" Usopp called out while he got another kick from an angry Sanji.
"Hey guys!" Akane suddenly stepped in the room calling out her friends.
"Akane!" They all exclaimed but then Usopp and Luffy instantly sped off to the cafeteria.
"Hey you bastards!" Sanji called out after them while the girl just laughed.
"Leave 'em be Sanji! They must be hungry! I kept you guys waiting 10 minutes anyway." She chuckled and motioned the blonde to come as well.
"Yes, Akane-chwan~" He cooed and followed obediently. "So where's the marimo?" He asked while they walked.
"Marimo?" She repeated, confused.
"Yeah I decided to call him that since his hair's green like one." He smirked while Akane couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"That suits him!" She agreed. "But he had to go to the office for registering or something."
"I see."
"Yeah… but when he comes back he's supposed to eat lunch with us." She added.
"What?! Why?!" Sanji questioned, horrified. Luffy, Usopp, Franky, Brook and Tony (Chopper) were enough as it was, and now another man?!
"Well I felt bad for him! He's new here from another city and he's gonna eat alone! So I invited him to sit with us, though I did warn him people sat away from our group since we were so loud…."
"Damn Marimo…" Sanji muttered. He already didn't like him.
"Oh c'mon Sanji! The more the merrier!" Akane assured.
Zoro's eyes widened as he finally reached the cafeteria (which much difficulty). The place was huge but he could clearly see the group he had been looking for. They were full of laughter and rowdiness that could be spotted anywhere. The teen also saw some unfamiliar faces. "From another class maybe?" He thought to himself and walked over to Akane who was laughing at something Luffy had done. She hadn't noticed him until Usopp coughed and pointed out the new student; Akane turned her head and stood up.
"Oh Zoro! You're here! Sit down, sit down!" She patted against an empty seat next to her. "I saved you a spot since you don't know anyone else." She smirked, her white teeth shining.
"Hn." Zoro nodded his head in acknowledgement and sat down, rather awkwardly.
"So is this the new student you were talking about?" A rather young voice asked. Zoro turned his head to see a… little kid?!
"Yeah Tony! This is Zoro, Zoro, this is Tony!" She introduced the two. "Tony's actually 15 but he skipped a few grades since he's a damn genius."
"Oh, that doesn't make me happy, bastard!" Tony chuckled, dancing in his seat embarrassed.
"Of course it doesn't." Akane chuckled. "He's not in our class though since he's in AP and we're in regulars so we don't seem them as much."
"I see." Zoro nodded his head once again.
"Nee-san, you aren't going to introduce me?" A deeper voice called out to Akane and she smirked at her friend.
"Of course I am Franky! Zoro, this is Franky! He's a genius too, in a different way from Chopper though. Ah, he looks all buffed up cause he's a football player by the way."
"I see." Zoro actually was about to ask why the 'robot' looking man looked like that.
"And that's Brook." She pointed to a really skinny man with an afro; he had a violin in his hand and was laughing rather weirdly. "He looks really old, but he isn't. It just runs in the family somehow. He's another genius who's just musically inclined!" Akane added.
"Hn." Zoro didn't know what else to say anymore; these people were just strange.
"And then there's Robin. She's another genius, but she's not here since she's at a trip or something. Though, you'll see her tomorrow. And I'm pretty sure I already told you about the rest of the people in our class. Nami, Usopp, Luffy and Sanji." Akane pointed to all of them and Zoro nodded his head, remembering.
"Hey Zolo!" Luffy went up to the green-head while a vein popped in his head.
"It's Zoro!" He snapped.
"Yeah, yeah! What can you do?!" He asked excitedly.
"Ah?"
"Luffy, give him a break! It's his first day here!" Usopp sweat-dropped.
"No! He's going to be in our group so I hafta know!"
"What is he talking about?" Zoro questioned, confused.
"Oh yeah, that's another thing; there's another reason why people usually avoid us." Akane added, suddenly smiling.
"Why?" Zoro asked, interested.
"We're actually Pirates!" Akane grinned proudly.
"P-Pirates?!" Zoro almost gasped. Pirates in this age were rare, and those who were pirates were highly regarded and feared- and at the same time hated.
"Yeah! If you wanna run away, then do it now! But I'm just telling you this right now, high school isn't the only thing we do! It's more like a side-thing! We're actually full-time Pirates!"
"How the hell is that possible?!" Zoro stood up, slamming his hands at the table. Were they joking with him since he was new?!
"Well it isn't impossible…" Nami whispered loud enough for the whole group to hear.
"What? Are you afraid?" Luffy questioned, tilting his head.
"H-hell no!" Zoro reprimanded and sighed. "Pirates?! That teacher doesn't treat them like they're pirates… does he not know?"
"So, you wanna join our crew?" Akane asked, grinning.
"A-Ah?"
"Join my crew!" Luffy repeated, in his own way. "You're not scared are you? You look like you've fought before so I'd be disappointed to see you haven't!"
"Of course I've fought! I just fuckin' hate pirates!" He snapped, revealing his secret.
"….." Everything went quiet
"Why?" Luffy questioned stupidly.
"'Cause they're dirty, murdering thieves!" He replied, and with that he walked away leaving everyone quiet once again.
"I'm guessing he's had a bad past." Chopper blurted out- destroying the silence.
"Haven't we all?" Nami sighed, putting her hand against her chin.
"True. But he seemed cool." Franky added.
"I wanted him in our crew!" Luffy whined. "Akane! Make him join!"
"Eh? Why me?!"
"I'm the Captain, listen! Besides, you're the one he's talked to the most!"
"You know the Captain thing doesn't work on a childhood friend like me, Luffy!" Akane chuckled but nodded her head anyway. "Sure, if he listens to me."
"Yay!" Luffy cheered. "Ah! I can't believe I almost forgot!"
"What?" Everyone asked.
"FOOD!"
To be continued! Confused? Well stay in tune for the next chap to find out why this whole Pirate thing is warped with school ;D Haha good enough bribe? Well R&R :)
