~Mt. Colubo~
Makino was knocking on door harshly of a shack-looking house when huge obsess woman with orange curly hair appeared and shouts "SHUT THE HELL UP WHOEVER YOU ARE! DO YOU WANT TO BE DIE!?"
"Dadan, it's me," replied Makino as she doesn't even flinch from the threat as a very short man and other man with rooster like hairstyle and mustache appears.
"Makino? What are you doing here? Did you already made clothes for the boys yesterday?"
"Yes, I know! But I' am not here for that! I have a favor to ask!"
"Sure but why such a rush?"
"That why I' am asking a favor because I need to find my niece!" she explained as Dadan dropped her cigar and she and the other two dropped their jaws in shock.
"EEEEEEEEEEH! YOU HAVE A NIECE!?" was the scream that was heard thru out the mountain.
"Yes, I do! I need to find her before she get herself killed!"
"Relax Makino! She can run away when trouble shows up."
"You don't understand! She can't see where she going because she's blindfolded and full on injuries!
"Eeeh! How the hell did this niece of your get this situation!?"
"I'll explain later! Please Dadan, you have to help me!"
"Ok, I will!" replied Dadan as two boys came. One had black hair with a scar under right eye and a straw hat. The other one had black hair and freckles and was carrying a pipe.
"Ah! Ace, Luffy, just in time! Get you're little bums over here!" shouted Dadan as she was minded her language with Makino around. You never know what will happen when Makino was around.
"What do you want, old hag?" asked Ace.
"Who are you calling old hag?!"
"You are!"
"OLD HAG!" shouted Luffy with huge grin.
"Luffy, don't copy Ace!"
"OLD HAG!"
"Anyway, Can you help me find someone?" asked Makino as she stopped Dadan from saying more.
"Who?" asked Luffy.
"My niece, she just arrived on Dawn Island today and she's somewhere in the forest. I' am worried that something bad happened to her because she is blindfolded and covered with injuries and can't protect herself. So can you help me find her?"
"OK! I'LL HELP!"
"Thank you, she looks around your age with brown hair and pale skin."
"What a pain, why do we have to help find a girl. Especially a blind one," replied Ace as he and everyone went to the forest to look for Makino's niece.
~In the forest~
Everyone split into four groups to cover more ground. Makino went with Dadan to the northern part of the forest. The bandit members went to the southern part and Luffy took east, leaving Ace to take the west.
This girl is really a pain! thought Ace as he heard something echoing deep within the forest. It sounds more like a song.
I hear your voice on the wind~
And I hear you call out my name~
"What the?" said Ace as headed towards the sound. The closer he got, the clearer the sound was and it was someone singing a song. By judging from the voice it was a small girl.
"Listen, my child," you say to me~
I am the voice of your history
Be not afraid, come follow me
Answer my call, and I'll set you free~
It has to be that girl! Ace thought as he went the song's direction in full speed. It was a nice melody that seemed to calm down anyone if someone, like Ace, was relaxing. But Ace wasn't and was angry that girl had the nerve to sing anything while he was stuck on looking her.
I am the voice in the wind and the pouring rain~
I am the voice of your hunger and pain
I am the voice that always is calling you
I am the voice, I will remain~
I am the voice in the fields when the summer's gone~
The dance of the leaves when the autumn winds blow
Ne'er do I sleep throughout all the cold winter long
I am the force that in springtime will grow~
Ace pushed some bushes behind him and found where the voice came from. The song came from a girl who was standing on a rock that had wave brown colored hair with a blindfold. She bandaged up almost like a mummy, very little skin was showed without the bandaged. She wore a long sleeved green dress with Indian-styled marking on the rim on the borders. She wore black slip on. She also had an Indian style white sash belt. She was making small gestures with her hands as she sang.
"I finally fou-" Ace couldn't finish his line as vines suddenly grabbed his arms and legs and took him high off the ground. Ace was both surprised and frustrated that he couldn't move a muscle in his body. He looked up and his eyes widen. Luffy was stuck in the same vines as he was.
I am the voice of the past that will always be~
Filled with my sorrow and blood in my fields
I am the voice of the future, bring me your peace
Bring me your peace, and my wounds, they will heal~
You got to be kidding me! How the hell can she keep singing at a time like this?! Ace thought as ventilated his thoughts since the vines keep his mouth shut. Luffy was trying to break free but couldn't even with his rubbery body. So they had no choice but wait for someone to help them since the girl was clearly no help to them.
I am the voice in the wind and the pouring rain~
I am the voice of your hunger and pain
I am the voice that always is calling you
I am the voice~
I am the voice of the past that will always be~
I am the voice of your hunger and pain
I am the voice of the future
I am the voice, I am the voice
I am the voice, I am the voice~
As song ended, the girl snapped her fingers and the vines that held both Ace and Luffy just dropped them and returned to the ground. Ace landed face first as Luffy land on his back.
"Did anyone tell not intrude other?" asked the girl as Luffy ignored the question and asked, "Did you eat a devil fruit?"
"Yes, The Earth Earth Fruit."
"SO COOL!" shout Luffy with star eyes as Ace got him off and yelled at the girl's face "SO IT'S YOUR FAULT WE WERE STUCK ON VINES!"
"Yes, got a problem?" replied the girl with I care why attitude. Ace face turned bright red as gripped his pipe.
"WHY YOU-"
"Can we just go? You're here to take me my aunt, right? The soon it's done, the faster I' am out of your way" she said as Luffy shouted "I 'am Luffy and this is my big brother, Ace, Nice to meet ya!" The girl flinched when she heard word brother and Ace saw this small action and found it strange.
"Miruna" she replied as trio were leaving until Miruna heard a voice.
"Dear child of the earth, your song soothed this old tree's soul. Now, I can die in peace. So thank you for… listen…ing…to…my… final…re…quest " said the voice that came from an old and dried up sakura tree. Miruna smiled and thought…
You're welcome.
That is it for this chapter.
Miruna was singing the song "I' am the voice" by Celtic Woman.
I hope you liked it.
