Chapter one

Rita groaned as her mind began to wake up, not wanting to get up herself.

'No… five more minutes!… wait when did I fall asleep? The last thing I remember…!'

Rita's eyes shot open as she sat up, now fully awake.

"That's right! I fell into that slime and, oh god that hurt! I blacked out." Rita exclaimed. She felt much better now though, only a bit sore.

'But what was it? And where are Ash and Hailey?' Rita thought and finally looked around. She was… in an ally?

'How did I end up in an ally? And… why is everything so big?' Rita wondered. The buildings were abnormally huge, and she could see an old trash can down at the end. The trash can could easily be twice her height, maybe even three times it!

'Okay this is really, really weird.' Rita thought. It was then that she realized that what she was sitting on didn't feel hard like the ground, but soft, warm, and… moving?

"What the?" Rita asked and looked down. Only to give a startled yelp. She was sitting on a person! And if that wasn't startling enough, this person was massive! Not as in fat, but in scale. Like a giant!

'Maybe I'm dreaming?…' Rita thought to herself. She crawled up the person to see who they might be. When she could see the person's face clearly, she could only stare in shock.

"Ash!?" Rita yelled in confusion. "How did you get so… big?"

'Or maybe I'm just really small?' She pondered.

Rita noticed that Ash was still asleep. So she shook her shoulder trying to coax her awake, but it wasn't working.

'What if she won't wake up!?' Worry was beginning to sink in. So Rita then took both shoulders as best she could and tried to shake her friend up.

"Ash, come on! Wake up, I'm really, really sorry for running off! Just, please, GET UP!" Rita begged. It seemed to do the trick because Ash gave a low groan.

'YES! SHE'S ALIVE!' Rita sighed in huge relief. Ash slowly blinked her eyes open.

"Where…?" She began to ask and she propped herself up on her elbows and looked down, when she realized there was a very small weight on her chest.

"…What in the he-"

"Oh Ash, I'm so glad you're ok-" Rita interrupted, only for her, herself to be interrupted.

"AHHHH! IT TALKS!?" Ash screamed and leapt to her feet, causing Rita to fall to the ground rather painfully.

"Ow! Ash that hurt! And yes I talk! Jeeze!" Rita grumbled and pushed herself up.

"Oh, well, excuse me for freaking out at-wait. How… did you know my name?" Ash asked, getting more and more freaked out.

"Because we've been friends since kindergarten? Ash, don't you recognize me? I mean I know I'm shorter now, but… hmm maybe being shorter makes you look a lot different?" Rita trailed off in her thoughts. Ash looked at her in horror then, in a blink of an eye, rage filled her face.

"HOW THE HELL WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW THAT? Have you even looked at yourself?" Ash glared. She… did have a point.

Rita looked down at herself , expecting to see her t-shirt and jeans, only to see orange. Lots and lots of orange.

"…What?" Rita flatly not believing what she was seeing.

'…Okay! It's official. I'm dreaming!' Rita thought to herself as she looked at her body in horrified fascination.

Her entire body was covered in orange fur, with yellow on her stomach, toes, and her mouth. Then she had a reddish- orange stripes on her legs and her fingers were fully colored in said color.

'Wait do have a..?' She looked behind her to see she did, in fact, have a tail.

"…COOL!" Rita grinned. She always wanted to have a tail as a kid. And it had stripes too, it must have went up to the back of her neck, Rita guessed. The tip was also the reddish color and it reminded her of an otter tail.

'If this is a dream, then I might as well go along with it and have fun..' Rita reasoned in her mind.

"Cool? Cool!? What on earth could be cool about being a foot tall weasel?" Ash growled. Rita thought about it for a second.

"…I have a tail, and I'm super cute?" Rita tried. Ash slapped a hand to her face in frustration. Rita did a double take at looking at her friend, though.

"What happened to your ears?" Rita asked tilting her head. Ash, apparently, changed as well. Her ears were now very, very long. And her hair changed a bit too. Instead of normal blond, it was now a pikachu yellow with red tips. It also looked a bit spikier, like a cartoon.

"What?" Ash raised a brow in confusion, "What do you mean 'what happened' to my ears?"

"Um, well…" Rita trailed off awkwardly, not for sure how to bring it up. Guess, she didn't have to because Ash's hand raised up to her ear. Her eyes grew in horror as she felt her ears, that were now long and pointed like an elf or fairy.

"THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!" She screamed and grabbed Rita by the scruff of her neck, then shook her like a rag doll.

'Make the spinning stop!' Rita thought, getting dizzy.

Ash then sighed and let Rita go, running a hand through her hair.

'Wish granted I guess…' Rita thought as she rubbed her sore back side.

"Huh?" Rita blinked in surprise when Ash picked her up much more genteelly.

"Well, we're here so we might as well figure out where here is." Ash sighed and walked towards the end of the ally, Rita under her arm like a foot ball.

At the end of the ally the two girls stuck there heads out and looked from one side to the other. They were in a town near the ocean, judging from the fish smell and seagulls flying around, and people were walking around doing their daily routine. Ash was very disappointed to see they all had normal ears.

'Great I have fairy ears and a talking, orange weasel under my arm, who use to be a sixteen year old girl. This is just so… surreal.' Ash thought with a pout, never noticing her ears moved down just slightly with her emotions.

While Ash was lost in her thoughts, Rita was looking around brows scrunched in confusion.

'Why does this place feel… familiar?' Rita thought and turned her head towards the left to see something that shocked her. 'Is… Is that the marine base from One piece?'

The building looked just like the marine base from the first few episodes of the anime, though rather far away.

'It looks just like it! Gee I hope Morgan's out of there. If that's where my dream is set anyway… then again maybe it's something entirely different. Either way, it's something to go on.'

"Hey Ash you see that really big, weird looking, blue building over there?" Rita asked pointing towards the building in question.

"Yeeeeaaaaah?" Ash stretched the word out in question.

"Can we go over there? It… looks familiar."

"How can anything here be familiar to you?" She growled, but started walking there all the same.

'Man this is getting a bit uncomfortable…' Rita thought after a while. Her stomach was feeling a bit sore, and she didn't like the feeling of her limbs flopping about.

"Hey Ash? Can I climb up to your shoulder? My gut is starting to hurt…"

"Hm? Oh yeah, sure." Ash helped Rita to her shoulder "Better?"

"Ah… much better! The view is much nicer up here!" Rita sighed happily, closing her eye's as the breeze blew across them.

"Yeah, yeah…" Ash smiled and continued walking. However she began to notice that people were staring at them. She even noticed that a few were pointing at them and whispering. She glared at those people.

'Jeeze what a way to kill a mood.' Ash thought, eyebrow twitching in irritation 'I hope that building we're heading to is helpful…'

They were almost there when they heard terrified screams coming from a little tavern they were about to pass. They looked at each other and then Ash bolted inside.

Inside caused the girls to stop in surprise. There were the terrified people of course, but there was also men in white and blue uniforms with the word 'MARINE' on them doing nothing as… A wolf was about to attack a girl!?

'Why are they just standing there!? That's a kid! Dude HELP her!' Ash thought frantically, not sure how to intervene. Rita, on the other hand, took a more direct approach.

"AROOOO!" The wolf howled in pain. It turned it's head with tears in it's eyes to see what was hurting it so bad. On it's tail, with teeth latched on tight, was Rita.

'Ew… He tastes nasty!' Rita thought. The Wolf growled and opened it's jaw.

'Holy Crap! He has a big mouth!' Rita thought. It didn't help that the beast had long, yellowing fangs that could pierce through her body like a tuna sandwich. Rita began to clench her jaw tighter in fear as the wolf began running in circles trying to get her.

"Rita! What are you doing you idiot!" Ash yelled in fear once she realized what happened.

'It may have saved the girl, but he's a wolf and she's a weasel. Do the math!' Ash thought and was about to reach out for Rita when a finger was waved in her face.

"HEY YOU! HOW DARE YOUR RAT ATTACK MY DOGGIE! IF YOU DON'T CALL IT OFF RIGHT NOW, I'LL TELL MY DADDY AND HAVE YOU EXECUTED!" A man in purple clothing shrieked at her. Ash glared at the finger and slapped it away from her face.

"I don't care who your dad is! You can't 'execute' me for this! You're the one letting your pet wolf attack a little girl!" Ash yelled back.

"…How DARE you! Do you even know WHO I AM?" He was shocked at someone standing up to him for second but quickly went back to screaming.

"You're a bully I can tell you that much." Ash growled. The man, no, child in the purple suit growled back.

While the two were bickering Rita was trying her best to not get eaten. The girl had ran to her mother by now, so she was safe thankfully.

'But what about me!?' Rita thought miserably with little anime tears streaking down her face. The wolf would snap it's jaws at her own tail, so she had to constantly curl her body so he couldn't reach it. It soon became to close for comfort.

'That's it I'm out of here!' Rita thought as she let go of the tail and leapt before the wolf could do anything. Only to land in a lap of some man sitting at the counter.

And Rita had to do a double take when she saw who that man was.

'Is… Is that Zoro!? Oh! I must be dreaming about when he got arrested… Should I help him somehow not get arrested?…Nah, I better make sure he get's arrested because otherwise there's no reason for him to stay here and Luffy wouldn't meet him and the series would turn to CHAOS!' Rita thought franticly.

"Huh?" Zoro questioned and looked down to see Rita. She grinned sheepishly and waved a bit before the wolf leapt at them.

"RITA!" Ash screamed. She had looked back just in time to see the wolf leap.

'I was so busy with that purple brat that I didn't get Rita!' Ash started forward but then there was a 'swish' sound and the wolf fell down to the ground. It was dead.

"Wait… What?" Was all Ash could say. Looking towards the man that Rita had landed on she could see he had a sword in his hand.

'That explains the blood soaked canine then. How did he get a real sword anyway?… Wait where's Rita?' Ash thought when she didn't see orange. She heard a groan though and her gaze fell to the floor. 'Oh… there she is.' Rita had fallen to the floor and was currently rubbing her sore back.

"Y-YOU! HOW DARE YOU KILL MY DOGGIE!" The Purple man shrieked.

'Jeeze stop screaming…' Ash thought wanting to cover her ears so she didn't have to hear this guy anymore.

"W-Wait a minute aren't you pirate hunter Zoro?" He asked.

'Thank god he has an indoor voice!… wait Pirate hunter? As in sea pirates with cannons and crap? They have those here?'

"So what?" The swordsman responded, glaring at him.

'…You know this guy isn't to bad' Ash thought, happy that someone other then her wouldn't put up with his bullcrap.

"THEN WHY THE HELL DID YOU KILL MY DOG? YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO KILL PIRATES NOT MESS WITH THE MARINES!"

'…WHAT!? Oh no, no, no! Please tell me this guy is kidding.' Ash thought she was going to be sick to her stomach. 'There's NO way that this guy is a Marine!'

"DON'T YOU PEOPLE KNOW WHO I AM? I'M CAPTAIN MARINE AXE-HAND MORGAN'S SON!"

'… See! Not a marine! Just a whiny son of one. Man I'm sick of this guy.' Ash thought and started heading towards Rita.

"DON'T YOU IGNORE ME!" He screamed at Ash.

"Oi pipe down purple suit! I'm friends with a Major, but you don't see me cowering behind that! Rita get over here so we can go!" Ash getting very peeved at this point.

While they were talking though Rita realized who the Man in purple was.

'Oh yeah that's Helmeppo! Man I forgot how annoying he was…' Rita thought. Ash bent down to pick her up when Helmeppo screamed and rushed toward Ash's back with a knife!

Before Rita could do anything, Zoro thankfully came to Ash's rescue by flicking Helmeppo's sword out of the way with his own and kicked him away. He flew flat against a wall and slumped in pain.

Ash blinked in surprise and turned to see what happened.

'Wow… I'm adding him to my 'be nice to' list!' Ash thought looking at the swordsman.

"Attacking from behind is a coward's move." Zoro growled at Helmeppo. Helmeppo cringed in fear for a moment but soon a smirk spread across his face.

"Don't you understand? If my father finds out about this…" Helmeppo took his time to stand up, then pointed at the little girl and her mother, "Those people will be executed."

'That's just low man…' Ash and Rita thought. Zoro paused as he thought about this.

"Ha ha! What do you think? Why don't we make a deal? You too long ears!"

"What? Why?" Ash's eye twitched at the nickname, but then she glared at him.

"For starters, you ignored me, insulted me, didn't listen to me, and your rat attacked my dog!" Helmeppo glared right back. "If you don't cooperate now, not only will the people die, but I'll kill the fuzz ball too!"

'They'll …kill Rita?' a thick feeling of dread washed over Ash at that thought. And, seeing as those marines have done nothing to help what so ever, He'd probably do it.

'This has to be illegal. Man I wish Hailey was here. She may be a baby most of the time but when it comes to the law she's all business. She'd know what to do in this situation… then again that probably wouldn't do so much good since we're probably not on American soil.' Ash sighed and nodded in defeat.

"Good. Now, why don't the two you go to jail instead of them? Let's see… one month! If the two of you survive one month, I'll let you go! How about it?"

"Not like there's much of a choice." Ash muttered stuffing her hands in her pouch.

"One month, right?" Zoro asked and let his sword fall from his hand and imbed itself into the floor. "Fine."

'...I know that Zoro needs to go jail but Ash? They're going to be out there for like three weeks! What do I do?' Rita thought as Ash and Zoro were being lead away by the marines who were just now reacting to anything. Ash paused and turned her head.

"Rita? Stay here and please try not to get into anymore trouble?" Rita nodded and then they were gone. Helmeppo was about to leave too, but instead turned to the last officer there.

"Oh, before I forget kill the rat."

'SAY WHAT!?' Rita immediately bolted, running under tables and around people's legs towards the back. Thankfully they had a back door that was open by an inch.

And she kept running and running until she made it back to the ally they started at.

Sitting there catching her breath she thought about to do next.

"Well this is a fine mess you ended up in Rita…" Rita said a bit gloomily and pulled her knees up to her chest. Anime tears went down her face when she realized…

"We haven't even met Luffy yet."

And that was Chapter one! Lots of stuff going on now with Rita out on the streets and Ash tagging along with Zoro as they go to jail. well I hope one of you got a chuckle out of this anyway. until next time!
