"I've got sunshine

On a cloudy day"

Chapter 1: A girl from the sky

-E-

A looming cloud hovered above her, threatening yet another thunderstorm. She sighed, cruising along the air on a surfboard.

"I hate the calm belt…" A sea king appeared out of nowhere, baring its fangs at her menacingly while she lazily pulled out a revolver and pulled the trigger.

Surfing through the air, the lone girl in a relatively empty sea spotted a nearby pirate ship straight ahead. Grinning, she sped towards its direction.

The moment she could clearly make out the jolly roger of the ship, she came to a silent halt.

"Shit." Flapping proudly in the wind was the symbol of the Whitebeard Pirates. Even the confident bounty hunter wasn't ready to risk a limb for that giant. The weather seemed to disagree, however, as a strong gust of wind blew a rock in her direction and knocked her out by hitting her square in the head. Her surfboard lost the ability to float in air and crashed down… into the murky waters below…

-S-

Someone was singing drunkenly beside me, and it wasn't all that nice to hear. I groaned and pried my eyes open, blinking a few times.

"Oi, isn't she that bounty hunter? What's her name again?" A voice resounded through the air. My head ached.

"Bad choice of ship though…"

Another man's voice replied, "Well technically she fell onto my striker."

A few men laughed, as though it were very amusing. "And you still brought her here?" There was no reply, so I suppose he shrugged in response. Well, it was time for me to make my presence known.

"Yo." I got up suddenly, giving a lot of them a shock.

"SHE WOKE UP!" Scratching my head absent-mindedly, I sat down, still a little dizzy from my little incident.

A man donning a large orange hat looked at me a little curiously. I was convinced they weren't ordinary pirates. Why did they save me? A light bulb lit above my head. Ah they want to catch me and hold me as hostage!

Gripping under my shirt, I was rather relieved to find that my revolver was still present. Now, when do I make my move?

That man was still giving that strange look, as though I fell from the sky. Based on their conversations… I did…

"Hey, little girls shouldn't be carrying guns around, shouldn't they?" He said politely. Do polite pirates even exist?

Caught off guard, I gazed at him warily, not answering. Pausing, I asked, "Who saved me?"

A crew member pointed at the orange hat guy. Ah. So here's my saviour.

I shook my head. This must be a dream. I'm not on board a pirate ship, and it's not just any ship, it's Whitebeard's ship! If I pinch myself I'll wake up from this dream.

"OUCH!" Alright, it didn't work.

-A-

That girl was quite entertaining. Being a bounty hunter, it's understood they should be against pirates. Yet, she was just doing mindless things. What a weird girl. Even Pop's daughters aren't that strange.

-E-

"What's a bounty hunter doing on my ship?" A loud voice boomed. The girl looked up to find a enormous figure towering over her, with his trademark white beard. Her eyes grew wide, with something akin to fascination. Ace cocked an eyebrow at her reaction.

"Ace brought her here." Marco replied, his back resting against the railing.

"Gu ra ra ra ra! And what do you mean by this, Ace?"

Ace shrugged, saying, "She dropped from the sky."

He faced his attention to the calm figure before him. "And you?" She shook her head furtively.

"Ah, it's not what you think. I think I passed out during the storm… while… being hit by a rock… so I'll be on my way now." Looking around, she looked as if she was searching for something.

"…Where's my surfboard?"

"Oh it broke." Ace said. It was at that point where his extreme narcolepsy struck and he fell to the ground snoring.

"…It what?! Stop sleeping you bakahead!"

"Is that even a legit word…?" Marco chuckled. Sighing, she sank on the floor, momentarily depressed. Looking up apologetically, she said, "Umm sir, can I borrow a piece of wood or something?" Whitebeard found the whole situation even more amusing, especially at her politeness, erupted in a fit of laughter. "Who is this girlie?"

"Don't call me girlie…" She muttered to herself, pulling her hood up over her head. Once again, Marco answered his question. "Sky's a bounty hunter. She has the power of the kumo kumo no mi(cloud-cloud) paramecia devil fruit." Turning to face Marco, she questioned on how he knew her name.

"You're the rookie bounty hunter who took out pirates with bounties above fifty million, although I did expect a little more than this to be honest." He said, smiling slyly. Whitebeard did seem more interested this time, surveying this nonchalant girl with more seriousness.

"You guys are even weirder. Which pirate crew lets a bounty hunter on their ship?" They were very unlike any pirates she ever met – absolutely fearless, though not without reason, it is Whitebeard's crew after all.

"I think Pops has something else in mind…" Ace, who had woken up as suddenly as he fell asleep spoke bemusedly.

"When did you wake-" Sky started but was interrupted by the captain's booming voice.

"Little brat, why not be my daughter and you can be more free than you'll ever be as those damn bounty hunters!"

Her mouth hung open, while comprehending the offer it dawned on her what he just said.

"LIKE HELL!"

-S-

I'm quite sure I'm dreaming. Did that old man just ask me to join his crew? Be his daughter? WHAT DAUGHTER?!

For as long as I remember, I traveled alone. Really, I don't understand why I became a pirate hunter. People scoffed at this but all I wanted was adventure. And lo and behold, Whitebeard asks me to join his crew. He literally ruled the seas. For me, it's like an impossible dream. I didn't want to be any ruler though. I just wanted the freedom.

Ace was staring at me with this intensity which I found very uncomfortable.

But yet…

"No." I said bluntly. "Sorry, but no." I corrected myself. That old man roared with laughter again. What. Is. So. Funny?!

-A-

"What kind of name is Sky?" I mused. Sky glowered at me.

"I'm sure Ace is for Ace of Spades. What a cheesy name."

"And you're a cloud." I argued.

"Yeah, and being made of fire is really normal." She said dryly.

What do you think? ^.^
