Title: Your Promise

Characters/Pairing(s): Luffy&Nami and OC's

(Pre/Post) Time Skip: VERY far into the future.

Nami watched in awe as her husband began to tickle their daughter. It was definitely a sight she will never forget. She remembered their first child being born and the beauty and miracle it came with it. She's always wanted to be a mother. A great mother similar to what her foster mother used to be.

"DADDY, STOP!" screamed Nina. She was the youngest and the smallest of their bundle of three children. She inherited her father's black hair and her mother's brown eyes. She was only three years old, yet she has the brains of her mother.

"ATTACK!" screamed the eldest, Yuta. The raven haired boy charged forward followed by his eight year old younger brother. Both boys jumped onto their father and all four of them began to fall. Luffy held onto his daughter tightly as he landed on his back. The three children used all their strength to pin down their father.

"Oi, oi! That's not fair!" yelled Luffy as he 'struggled' to break free.

"Look who's talking!" yelled Riku, the middle child. He had his mother's hair color and his father's black orbs. He was tall for his age and almost reached his older brother's height. He may have his mother's outer features, but he also had his father's inner features. After a minute, he let go of his father, burped and scratched his rear when he felt boredom.

"Come inside and I'll give you some ice cream!" Nami called out as she walked into their house. The two youngest ran in following their mother. Luffy tried to get up and follow but realized that one of his kids was stilling holding onto him.

"C'mon, Yuta. I want some ice cream, too!" Yuta shook his head.

"Not until you admit I'm stronger than you!" Luffy chuckled.

"Can the prince really be stronger than the Pirate King?"

"Yes!" Luffy chuckled again. He lied down, bringing his hands behind his head and tilting his strawhat so it covered his eyes. Yuta watched him as he did so. His eyes widened when he heard a snore.

"DAD! I'M NOT JOKING!" Luffy lifted his strawhat with a single finger and smirked. He sat up and stared at his eldest son. He had a sandy brown hair color, brown eyes, and a scar running down beside his left eye similar to his jii-chan's. Luffy let a small laugh escape after thinking back to how he got it. It was the exact same way he got his scar. Which is another thing that showed that he really was his son.

"You're not stronger than me. You will never become stronger than me." A vein appeared on Yuta's head. This was irritating and frustrating him.

"I WILL! I'LL GATHER MY OWN CREW THAT'LL BEAT YOURS AND FIND THE WORLD'S GREATEST TREASURE! NO MATTER WHAT, I'LL BECOME THE NEXT PIRATE KING AND BECOME STRONGER THAN YOU!"

"I see..."

Yuta formed fists with his hands. It took all his courage too say those words. He felt confident saying it, but it scared him just thinking about it. He felt something light being placed on his head. His eyes widened when he realized what it was.

"I'll let you hold on to this then. As a reminder of your promise to me. This hat is very important to me. Take good care of it. Give it back to me once you've fulfilled your promise."

I kinda have mixed feelings with this. I'm not sure if I should've ended with that or added more.

I'm thinking about making a story with the.. kids ..of the strawhats. So, look out for that. (;
