The Curse of the Oceans Sea
Chapter One
It was like any other day on the Mugiwara no Kaizoku's new ship, the Thousand Sunny. Everyone was being their typical selves and doing their typical things, until Usopp noticed a small rowboat floating up ahead while he was fishing. "Oi, Chopper! Come over here!" he called.
Chopper rushed over only to see an unconscious, bruised and cut girl, about twelve years of age. He ran over to the anchor, let it down and ran back over to Usopp. "Everyone, come over here!" he yelled.
Everyone ran over and gazed down toward the tiny row boat. "Hurry! Bring her onto the ship! She has fatal wounds and needs immediate medical treatment!" anxiously yelled Chopper.
Sanji jumped off the Thousand Sunny and onto the row boat. He gently picked her up and brought her onto the ship.
"Bring her to the Sick Bay!" Chopper was frantic. Everyone followed into the sick bay except for Nami.
"Hey wait…she dropped this" said Nami as she looked at the locket that had fallen out of the girl's clutched hand. She let out a sigh and put it away in her pocket and followed the rest of her nakama into the sick bay.
After a while, the Mugiwara no Kaizoku left the sick bay leaving Chopper behind to tend to the girl.

After a few hours passed, Chopper finally came out. "I'm done," he sighed in relief. "She's still asleep and she'll probably stay that way for a while."
"Sanji, I'm hungry," whined Luffy.
"Well, I guess that means that it's time for dinner," he said. "I'll go start cooking then."
When dinner came, they all went into the kitchen and ate. As usual, Luffy was reaching across the table taking other people's food, while occasionally getting hit by a fork. Dinner was chaotic, but when night came, the whole ship was quiet.

The next morning, the Mugiwara no Kaizoku met in the kitchen and had a meeting on what to do with the girl.
"What should we do with her?" asked Sanji.
"We can take her with us and then drop her off at the next island," suggested Usopp.
"Yeah, good idea," said Franky. "What else are we supposed to do with a small, defenseless girl? I mean, we can't just leave her out at sea."
"How about we talk to her first and see what she says," said Chopper.
"Yeah, maybe she's a musician!" said Luffy with a laugh.
Nami got out of her seat and whacked Luffy on the head. "Luffy, this is nothing to joke about. This is a serious matter."
"Ow… Nami…" he whined. She shot a glare in his direction. "Okay, okay."
"What do you think, Robin-chan?" asked Sanji.
"I think we should do what Doctor-san said," she replied.
"Okay, then that's what we're going to do," said Zoro impatiently.
"He says that then falls asleep," stated Nami.
"Okay, we'll talk to her then. But do you think she'll want to talk to all of us like that or just one of us?" asked Franky.
"Well, I don't know. Do you have any ideas Chopper?" said Sanji
"Well, we are pirates and it may seem intimidating. How about you talk her, Nami?" suggested Chopper.
"Why me? Why not you or someone else?"
"Because you're the best choice," said Usopp.
"Just try not to get violent," said Chopper.
"Fine then."
They all walked out of the kitchen except for Sanji who was making breakfast after Luffy had complained about being hungry.

Nami walked into the sick bay to see the young girl sitting up in her bed. "Hi, my name is Nami. What's yours?" she asked as she sat down on the bed next to hers.
"My names' Yumi," she said in a small voice.
"So, what were you doing on that boat?" asked Nami.
"That's none of you business!" she answered quickly and coldly.
"Okay, okay, jeez, what's you problem?"
"All pirates are the same. You do horrible things to get information about treasure. You'll go to such extremes as to kill innocent people for money. You steal from villages then destroy them. You'll even betray your own nakama for your life." She sounded angry.
"How can you say that before even giving our crew a chance? Don't-"
"You think the same thing. You hate and fear pirates. Don't try and deny it, it's obvious."
"Don't think you know every thing. I don't hate and fear pirates. I-"
"I said, don't try and deny it."
It was silent. No one talked or did anything but sit there.
"Just kill me, here and now. If I'm stuck on this pirate ship, I'd rather die," said Yumi, trying to break the silence.
"If that's what you want, then I'll give it to you," said Nami, as she lifted the girl up by the neck. "I'm guessing that since you want to die, you won't need this." Nami pulled out the locket, still holding the girl.
"My locket!" she shouted as she started to struggle. "See, what I said. Pirates do steal people's treasures, even if it is useless to them."
Nami let her go while Yumi grabbed the locket from her hand. 'I'll be taking that, along with my life."
Nami left the room without turning beck to even glance at the girl. She opened the door and slammed it behind her. "Hey, Nami, did she say anything?" asked Chopper.
"Her name's Yumi," she replied.
"Anything else?"
"N-no"
