Turns Out that somehow I ended up on the grand line... Not exactly where I wanted to be. I sat in a room with Bepo as he tried to explain the magnetic pull of islands and the currents of the water. I sat there for about ten seconds afterwards and let it sink in that this place was so not like home. I looked at Law with a confused face, he laughed at me, so I punched him in the back of the head and took his hat. I walked out of the room to the deck where Penguin was sitting with Sachi. "Uh, I am so lost right now." I said to the guys. "You'll get used to it believe me." they looked at each other and started to chuckle. "WHAT?" As if it were on cue, the weather overhead changed from clear skies and sunny, to cloud covered and storming. My mouth dropped and again the whole crew started laughing. I ran inside to dry off and was followed by Penguin and Sachi. "What the hell was that?" They bursted into laughter again and walked away. "We all had to learn and so will you." Bepo walked up behind me and rested his hand on my shoulder. "Let's go eat, but I would suggest a change of clothes..." I looked down at myself, I was soaked from head to toe because of this damn storm. And worst of all I was wearing a white tank top. "I will kill you assholes for not telling me!" I yelled as I saw Sachi and Penguin run down the hall to the kitchen. "Here." Bepo handed me a towel, I covered my upper body with it. "Uh Bepo... I don't have a change of clothes." he and I both came to this conclusion together. I was also the only girl on the crew which made it even worse.

"You can borrow one of my shirts." Penguin stuck his head out the door as did Sachi.

"Go to hell" I walked over to them and kicked them both in the balls.

Bepo laughed and Law came around the corner. "So... as I asked earlier, how long until the next island?" I looked at Law hoping he would say something along the lines of a day or two. "We should be able to see it in a couple of hours." he said. My anger lightened up a bit, I pulled the towel tighter around my shoulders and started walking down the hall. There were three rooms on the left and two on the right and at the end of the hallway was Law's room. On the left the rooms each housed crew members. Sachi, Penguin and Bepo had been moved to the two other rooms, leaving one open for me. On the right were the kitchen and the operating room. "Law she is gonna need something to wear she's the only girl after all." I looked at Law and he also came to the same conclusion. "It's no big deal I'll just borrow one of their t-shirts." I looked at the idiots who had now uncurled themselves from the fetal position and were begging to stand up. "No both of them are perverts..." Bepo gave them the evil eye. "Well then... I'll borrow one of Law's" I started walking towards his room.

"Wait why do you need a shirt in the first place?" Law turned to me as I walked down the hall. Bepo explained everything to him. Law's eyes went from Bepo, to me, and then to the two dumbasses on the floor. "Room.." He cut off their heads and then kicked then at the wall. "We deserved that." Penguin said, his eyes were rolling around in his head. Law walked down the hall and pulled a shirt out of his dresser. It was a black t-shirt with the jolly roger painted yellow in the middle. "Thanks!" I smiled back at him and turned into my room. It was a small room, perhaps the smallest on the ship. It was just as small as the one I lived in at home. Home... My brother... I closed the door and slipped out of my soaked tank top. I put on the shirt Law had given me. The shirt was a bit long on me and made me look like I had no pants on due to the fact my shorts were a little short. I took a rubber band and tied the shirt in the back. You could already smell the food cooking in the kitchen, so I decided to join the rest of the crew in eating. I pulled my long dark hair into a pony tail and walked to the kitchen. Penguin and Sachi had found their heads and were now shoveling in food along with the rest of the crew. Bepo was nibbling on the bread on his plate, and Law was peacefully waiting for the others to calm down. I reached my hand into the chaos to grab a piece of fish and amazingly came out unhurt. "I'm not gonna eat much tonight, and I will probably be in my room for a while. So if we get to the island tell me, other than that DON'T BOTHER ME!" I yelled at the men so they would stop eating and pay attention to what I had to say. "You will have hell to pay if you do..."

"What are you up to?" Bepo stopped his eating and looked up at me.

"Just a little writing I have to do..."

"To whom?" Law finally spoke up.

"My brother, who else would I write to?"

"Oh Sam huh? I haven't seen him in a while."

Law smiled like he was reminiscing about the past. He and my brother got into so much trouble back home when they were young. They would run around town wondering what they would get into next. "Well I'm off." I grabbed a piece of bread and trotted off to my room. There was a desk in the right corner of the room, I pulled out a piece of paper and took a pen to write a letter. Thankfully the marines deliver the mail to my island via ship, so I'm able to keep in touch with my brother. My mother and father sent us letters every birthday, We loved receiving them, it made us smile to know they still cared. I was two when they left. As we grew up, the more we learned, we started to hate them. They left us... and that was all that mattered. Maybe if they hadn't left us... don't start with yourself Piper you will only start crying. An incident happened about six years after they left. We used to have an older sister, she was probably the most beautiful girl on our island. One day a celestial dragon came to take with him a new doctor from our island. Instead he ended up taking a new wife...

Her name was rain, she had long blonde curly hair. She always wore a sundress with a flower print, colors of blue and green, and a lot of times yellow. My brother and Law were meeting us at the beach on the other side of our town. We made it to dock 20 where there were many cheering. We made it halfway through the crowd before my sister's grip on me was lost I was pushed through until I somehow made it to the front. I fell on my face right under the celestial dragon. He looked down to where I was. To my left I could see my sister pushing through and behind her was Law and Sam. They stopped in their tracks, the world noble looked at me then to the crowd. "Luckily for all of you my time spent here will be cut short." he said with a booming voice. With every word he said all I could think about was how big around he was, He looked like a balloon about to fly away. My sister's eyes widened along with Law and Sam. "I shall take this little one with me to work as my slave, any objections for I will take you instead?" My heart sank as it set in stone finally what he meant by 'his time cut short'. He grabbed me by my ponytail and started to drag me away. "WAIT! I OBJECT TAKE ME INSTAED!" my sister yelled, the crowd grew silent. The celestial dragon turned around in amusement to see what pitiful person would want to be his slave. Instead he found that he fell in love with my sister. He dropped me and walked to her. "What magnificent beauty! I shall take you as my thirteenth wife!" he grabbed her hand and started to lead her towards the ship. "NO! RAIN COME BACK DON'T GO!" I started screaming and crying, my eyes filled with tears. She mouthed four words when they put cuffs on her wrists. I love you Piper. She smiled and turned around as they led her on the boat. They sailed off and left our island in the dust. All of the villagers stood there, not a sound. They all hated our parents, but everyone loved rain. Now, she was gone, and I would never see her again. The next coming days I was in nothing but a state of regret. What if I had just not gone to hang out? Maybe I should have just said no... I should be on that boat not her. Law found me under an apple tree in the forest.

"Piper it'll be okay."

" ... " I stared at my feet, i didn't dare look up at him.

"SNAP OUT OF IT! She would not want you to be all depressed like this okay?" Law was right. I sat up and looked off into the distance. "Law, I'm gonna leave here, and you know what? I'm gonna find them all and I'm gonna bring 'em home! Mom, Dad, and Rain... All of them..." I started to cry again. Law sighed and took off his hat. He put it on my head and said "Yea... I know you will." I lifted my head to see Law's outstretched hand. He stood me up and then picked me up on his back. I fell asleep, and I woke up the next day to a dream... a dream that would push me to become strong. This dream is the only thing I live for anymore.

I came back to reality and started to write my letter to my brother. Dear Sam, Please do not worry about me, you will never guess who I met with out here... I went on to tell him everything. I wrote the last word and I sealed the letter, then I heard a knock at the door. "Piper! we're about to port at the next island. So get ready." Bepo called from the other side of the door. Yea I'm sure I'll be fine... I walked outside to the sunshine again. "What the hell?" I said with a confused look. "Told ya so!" Sachi and Penguin said in unison.

We walked off the ship and onto the soft earth of the island, It was a bit squishy under my feet. "They call this rebound Island, you can bounce off of everything here..." Law's expression didn't change. "Quit looking so grumpy. Have a little fun for once!" I Jumped and I flew through the air not really expecting to fly that high. "Aero aero no mi, floor!" the air under me hardened and I stood overlooking the island. I bunched my hands into fists. "Whoa Piper, how'd you do that?" Sachi called up to me. "release... I fell to the ground slowly, opening my hands as well. "It's my devil fruit power, I can control air pressure. Or I can take away air from someone... Aero aero no mi breath... " Sachi suddenly became unable to breathe. I undid my fist and he took a deep breath. He looked pissed... "what you asked what I could do so I showed you!" the rest of the crew laughed and Sachi stood up embarrassed. "Piper!" i turned around and Law handed me a couple hundred Berris. "Take Bepo with you and go buy what you want but be back by night fall, this town has a bad reputation for the night dwellers." I nodded my head and walked up closer to Law's face. Law... I can take care of myself." I smiled, took his hat and walked away with Bepo. Behind me i heard him sigh and mumble something along the lines of 'brat'. I grabbed Bepo and i went to buy a few outfits and a lot of mish-matched t-shirts and pants.

By the time i had gotten done the sun had gone down over the hills of Bound and it was beginning to get dark. You could already hear the fights going on inside the bars. To our left a group of men got thrown out of the bar and were now laying drunk on the ground. Me and Bepo giggled a little at the sight. We started walking back towards the ship, it had seemed peaceful enough that we wouldn't run into trouble on the way there. Well until we ran into a bunch of sneaky ass bandits. "Stop right there young lady and... bear?" a man's voice said from above. I looked up to see the man high up on a building. He jumped down and bounced up over the clouds, this time coming down with some sort of weapon. The weapon was large and had a net wrapped around the outside. He smiled... that was the last thing i saw before i blacked out due to the seastone tied into the net. When i awoke i could hear them screaming at each other to load the ship. My head hurt and i could feel the blood running down the side of my face. What the hell, when did i get hit? And where's Bepo? I looked all around until my eyes finally rested on him. He was tied up in the corner, It's my turn to save him i have to.
