A/N: I forgot to make an author's note on the first chapter because my idiot of an iPod won't let me do anything. It pisses me off.

Anyway, this is my first time writing a fanfic on here, so bear with me please. I deeply apologize if my writing sucks. I wrote at least 16 chapters while I was on vacation to Japan on my iPod, but then realized I was pushing the story a little bit and it seemed very…rushed, so it might take a while to get it all uploaded onto , but I will! Don't worry! I'll try to get as many chapters as I possibly can but, that might change once I get into the school year. Freshman…..ugh…

Please rate and review, it really does help. If you have any suggestions, those help too. If you wanna tell me my story sucks, - just read it before you say that- but that helps too. XP

I'll have some Japanese words and phrases in here, so if you're wondering what any of them mean, feel free to ask.

FYI, changed my name from Meguru10 to 10, so this was Meguru10's fanfic.

Log 2

Livia POV

"Geez, this is Water 7? It's changed a lot." I took a draw from my cigarette and tied my hair into its regular messy, brown ponytail.

"Well, I heard that the damage from the last Aqua Laguna hurt it a lot." My younger brother, Crusoe replied. He had spiky, short blue hair and tan skin with amber eyes.

Crusoe looked carefree and happy in our hometown of Water 7. I smiled at his boyishness as he stretched his long arms out and covered his huge yawn.

"Blllaaazzzeee-"He whined. "I don't understand why we had to come here so late."

My older brother, Blaze scratched his wild, red hair, annoyed. "Crusoe, we're wanted now. We don't have the cover of the World Government anymore. With Water 7 being so close to the destroyed Enies Lobby, Marines could find us right away."

"But,"

"No buts, Crusoe." Blaze's eyes flashed.

That shut him up.

Blaze tapped his foot on the roof of the Sea Train impatiently.

"Let's go." He jumped off the roof and Crusoe and I followed in suite.

"Livia," Blaze said as we ran.

"Mmm?"

"Where are they?"

"Oh? Blaze asking me a question? I'm honored." I scoffed.

"Livia, just answer the question." He growled. I saw a muscle in his jaw twitch.

I giggled. "They're staying in the temporary Galley-La headquarters. You know, where we used to stay if we stayed late for a project at Dock 1."

Blaze nodded.

He took a sharp turn to the right and then another turn to the left. I recognized this as the shortcut we used to take when we were kids. I smiled. There were a flood of memories down this alley way. Crusoe vaulted off a garbage can, making a large, clattering noise.

"Crusoe!" Blaze hissed.

Crusoe shrugged. "Sorry."


We stopped at the sight of the building that had the Galley-La sign on it.

I smiled. "Just the same as ever."

"You've never said anything truer." Blaze said.

The three of us studied the large building.

"Remember when I threw your panties out the window in front of Paulie-san?" Crusoe laughed as he pointed to the window by the door.

"Yes." I said, throwing out my leg to kick him.

Crusoe danced out of the way and laughed. Even Blaze had a small grin on his face.

"See," Crusoe threw an arm over Blaze's shoulder. "When we talk about panties, Blaze smiles!"

Blaze gave him a death glare and pushed Crusoe's arm off.

"Oh dear, Crusoe." I sighed. "You took his smile away."

Blaze ignored me and turned to the door.

"It doesn't look like anybody's home." He mused.

The windows were dark and it was silent.

"Hello? Anybody there?" Crusoe called.

"Shut up!" I punched him.

"My sisters physically abusing me! Anybody there?"

"Crusoe!" I hit him with the butt of my sword. "Seriously! Cut it out!"

"Hehe." He rubbed the area where I hit him.

I sheathed my sword and touched the cold door handle.

"Well, let's have a look, shall we?" I opened the door.

The door creaked open to the familiar room, with the bunk beds, and the same table with the same blue tablecloth.

"It hasn't changed a bit." I said softly.

Blaze and Crusoe nodded. Crusoe turned to shut the door, when Blaze stopped him.

"No, use the moonlight as light."

Crusoe nodded and stopped.

We stood there in silence, reveling in the memories we remembered. Blaze suddenly snapped his head to his left.

"Blaze?" I asked, concerned.

Blaze said nothing, only his piercing green eyes told me that he was watching, waiting, listening for something.

"Hurry, Cruse, now, shut the door." Blaze said. "Quietly."

Crusoe shut the door quickly, leaving us in pitch black darkness.

"Blaze, what's wrong?" I asked again.

"They're here." I heard tension in his voice. "They might not take to us kindly, so be ready."

As soon as he said that, the door was opened by a boy wearing a white and red tank top with the Galley-La sign on it and a straw hat; Monkey D. Luffy.

"Mugiwara." Blaze muttered.

"Ahn? Who're you?" Luffy asked.

The green-haired swordsman by him unsheathed his katanas. I put my hand up.

"We're not a threat, Swordsman." I said, coyly.

I heard a small gasp in their crew. A tall woman with raven hair made her way to the front of her crew.

"You…" She pointed at us.

I blew my cigarette smoke.

"Us." I replied simply.

"You helped me." She said.

"That we did." Blaze said. "Nico Robin."

Nico Robin gave him an unreadable look.

"Everyone, these are the hooded people I told you about." She turned to the Mugiwara pirates.

"Oh, you were the ones who helped Robin? Tha-" The captain's sentence was cut short as a blonde man with a curly eyebrow grasped my hands.

"Ohh, love, oh beauty," He crooned. "Miss, you are the flower of my heart, the jewel of jewels! Your beauty is above all! Sail off into the sunset with me at once!"

I detached my hands from him and put them on my hips, cocking an eyebrow. "No."

"Ah!" He leaned back, blood gushing from his nose. "Pretty-chan, even when you deny me, you are cute!"

"Who is this idiot?" I pointed at the blonde man who was now drowning in his blood.

"Sanji, the cook." A girl whom I could tell was younger than me said. She had orange hair and had a tattoo on her shoulder. "You've got quite an assortment of tattoos there."

I looked down at my body. "I guess."

"Um…what is that..." Crusoe pointed to a furry, bear-like thing hiding between Robin's legs.

"Oh…that's Chopper." Luffy said.

"Aww! It's a little baby bear!" I squealed.

"I'M NOT A BEAR, YOU BASTARD!" It screamed at me.

"Acck!" I shrieked and grabbed Crusoe's arm. "It talked!"

"OF COURSE I CAN TALK!"

"IT TALKED AGAIN!" I sobbed and hid my face in Crusoe's shoulder.

"Shishishi!" Luffy laughed. "You guys are funny!"

"It's not like we've seen a talking dog before." Blaze replied.

"I'M NOT A DOG, I'M A REINDEER!"

"Shishishi!"

"Oi, Livia, get off me." Crusoe tried to detach my nails from his precious tiger stripe printed shirt. I just clenched harder.

"You guys are REALLY funny." Luffy said.

He scratched his chin. The crew seemed to get a solemn air about them, Chopper grew quiet, Nico Robin pursed her lips, the cook got up from his blood, the swordsman gave Luffy a look and the ginger just sighed and rested her head in her hands.

"You guys saved Robin." Luffy became serious. "I can never repay you for that. But what I can do is…." He stopped. We waited for his answer.

"JOIN MY CREW!"
