Guest: brilliant! I love the idea! ;) Might be in the next chapter!
Guest: yes I do agree Gajeel will probably be a whole lot of fun, but I really started to like how he acts around Luffy so I'm so unsure. (Anime tears) TTvTT
Reyna: I think I know what I want to do with Natsuki's future relationship but if I decide to change it Zoro will for sure be in mind.
Dragonlily22: here's an update! And I am working on updating all my other stuff on here!
{One Piece}
"Are you looking for someone?" the guy asked her. Natsuki looked up at the guy with a nod.
"Yeah I lost my friend, or he might've gotten lost…." She muttered to herself. The guy in front of her was a guy that was probably Zoro's height.
"Is that so? Do you need help finding him?" he asked handing her bags back to her. Natsuki shook her head.
"Nah. It's fine." She said taking the bags back. "I'll just go wait at the ship for him, I'm sure he'll show up eventually." She smiled at him.
"Alright then." The guy said. Natsuki had to admit the guy was cute. "So? Can I have your name?" the guy asked. Natsuki crossed her arms.
"Your suppose to give your name first." she smirked. The guy smirked back.
"Your right. Your right. I'm Portgas D, Ace." He held his hand out. Natsuki shook it.
"Natsuki Dragneel. Nice to meet you."
"You sure you don't want help looking for you friend?" Ace asked. Natsuki consider it.
"I don't know…."
"Come on!" Ace insisted. "Say yes." She giggled at him… wait? Giggled? That didn't happen often… or ever.
"Alright whatever." She shrugged.
"Sweet! Come on we'll start down town." Ace said leading her there.
"Why?" Natsuki asked going along with it.
"Because that's where the food is!" Ace shouted.
"Alright! I'm in!" Natsuki cheered.
"I can't believe mosshead lost Natsuki!" Sanji said pissed. Nami sighed.
"I hope we find her soon. Who knows what she'll get into?" Nami said.
"That was good!" Natsuki sighed.
"Yeah tota…" Ace started before passing out.
"Ah! Ace! Ace get up! Ace!" Natsuki shook his him. "Ace!" she shouted in his ear with no luck.
"Is he dead?" a random person next to her asked.
"Huh!?" she shouted. "Ace get up you idiot!"
"What's going over there?" Usopp asked looking at the group of people circling around a restaurant. Nami and Sanji looked over to it.
"I don't know." Nami replied making her way over to the commotion "what's going on?" she asked a man.
"I think someone just died in there. A pink haired girl has been trying to wake him for the past ten minutes." The man told her.
"Pink haired girl!?" Nami, Sanji and Usopp shouted. They pushed their way through the crowd, finding Natsuki on her knees rapidly shaking a guy on the ground.
"Wake up! Wake up!" she shouted.
"Natsuki!" Sanji said running up to her. "What's going… on…? Ace?" Sanji questioned.
"Ace!?" Usopp and Nami shouted.
"You know him?" Natsuki asked pointing at him. Sanji nodded. "He won't wake up I think he might be…" she trailed off. Sanji shook his head.
"Don't worry he…" Ace sat up as Sanji had started to speak, spooking Natsuki.
"Your awake!" Ace looked at her then the blonde next to her.
"Sanji?" he questioned not sure he was seeing right. Sanji nodded.
"You fell a sleep again." He said.
"A sleep!?" Natsuki asked.
"Oh? Oops. Sorry Natsuki." Ace sheepishly rubbed his head.
"I thought you had died." Natsuki told Ace.
"Yeah it's a thing that happens from time to time." The crowd begun depart ring now leaving Nami and Usopp as the only ones watching now.
"For the love of…" Nami sighed. "How did you meet Ace?" she asked. Natsuki looked at her.
"I ran into him while I was looking for Zoro."
"I didn't know you knew the strawhats." Ace said. Natsuki nodded. "Where's Luffy?" he asked them. The pirates were silent. "What?" he asked not liking the silence.
"You see the other day a whirlpool suddenly appeared out of nowhere and Luffia fell in…" Sanji started to explain.
"What!? Where is she!? Is she alright!?" Ace started to demand answers. Sanji held his hands up in a calming manner.
"We couldn't find her…" he begun again.
"Didn't find her!? I thought I left her in good hands and instead…!"
"Let me finish dammit!" Sanji snapped. Ace shut his mouth with a glare. "It would appear the whirlpool was a portal and sent Luffia to another world." Sanji looked to Natsuki. "The same thing happened with Natsuki in her world and she was sucked in and sent to our world. We're trying to find away to get Luffia back here and Natsuki back to her own world." Sanji finished.
"So is Luffia in your world then?" Ace asked Natsuki.
"Most likely."
"Most likely?" Ace repeated. Natsuki nodded.
"Don't worry my friends are gonna find a way to switch us back to our own worlds, and they are to." She gestured to Sanji, Nami and Usopp. Sighing Ace nod in understanding. There was nothing he could anyway but wait.
"Alright. I'll trust you and your friends." He said.
"This is all nice and peachy but you have a bill to pay." The owner of the restaurant cut in. Natsuki looked to Ace who tsked.
"We better run." He whispered to her. She was about to say something but Ace grabbed her hand as he ran out of the building, leaving Nami, Sanji and Usopp to stare at their backs.
"Hey!" the man shouted at them. "One of you better pay the tab." He showed the bill to the three.
"What!?" Nami screamed at the how much it was. "I'm not paying for this!" she shouted at the man.
"Ace what the hell!?" Natsuki said as they ran.
"Just a little eat and run." He laughed. Natsuki laughed with him as they ran. They didn't stop till they were on the beach, The Going Merry not far away from them.
"I wonder if Zoro found his back here yet?" Natsuki wondered out loud.
"Let's go see." Ace said leading the way.
"Zoro!" Natsuki called searching through the rooms. "No sign of him." She said throwing herself to ground, Ace following suit.
"He's fine. So tell me about your world." He asked. Natsuki sigh with a smile. She was going to be asked that a lot while she was here.
"Well…" she begun explaining and telling him everything she has told the others already, all the while Ace had an expression of fascination and excitement on his face.
"So can you do magic?" he asked. Natsuki nodded.
"Of course! I'm a fire dragon-slayer." She said fisting her hand, fire appearing. Ace blinked.
"Wow. That's pretty cool." He said reaching to touch it. Natsuki snatched her hand back.
"Are ya trying to get burned stupid?" she asked. Ace chuckled as he shook his head.
"Don't worry about that."
"Why?" Natsuki asked confused.
"Because I ate the flame-flame fruit." Natsuki cocked her head to side. "It means I can turn any part of my body into fire." He demonstrated with both of his hands. Natsuki's eyes lit up.
"That's so cool!" she exclaimed as Ace's flames dimmed to nothing.
"Thanks." Natsuki thought for a moment.
"So what does your fire taste like?" she asked catching Ace off guard with the question. What does his fire taste like?
"What do you mean?" he asked.
"I guess I didn't explain that." She laughed nervously. "You see a dragon-slayer can eat its element when they are running low on powers. I can eat fire since I'm a fire dragon-slayer." Ace nodded.
"Well I never tasted my fire before so I wouldn't know."
"Hmm? Can I try?" Natsuki asked. Ace gave her a look.
"No."
"Aww!" Natsuki said disappointed. Ace just shook his head. "So… are you a pirate to?" she asked. Ace nodded and showed her his back with the Whitebeard mark on it.
"Yup! The Whitebeard pirates" he told her with pride. She looked at the mark.
"Neat. So you really care about them huh?" he nodded.
"Course! He's liked the dad I never had." Natsuki smiled widely.
"That's great." She thought about Igneel, her smile falling slightly. Ace notice this.
"Hey what's up?" He asked tucking a piece of hair behind her ear. She just shook her head not saying anything. "Come on tell me." He insisted.
"I was just thinking about my dad…" she sighed. Ace nodded for her to continue. "He disappeared when I was little, and I haven't had any contact since." She shrugged when she was done.
"I'm sorry." Ace said. Now he felt bad for insisting, he didn't like the sad look she was making.
"Don't worry about it." She nudged him with her shoulder, he nudge her back.
"Natsuki! There you are!" Chopper exclaimed. He, Robin and Zoro walked onto the ship arms full of bags, and books. Natsuki stood up taking some of the bags from Zoro.
"Yeah well after losing Zoro figured it be best to come back here and wait." Robin smiled and her.
"Very good idea… who is this?" she asked looking to Ace. Ace waved to her.
"Ace?" Zoro and Chopper said at the same time. Natsuki nodded.
"Apparently an old friend." She said. Her and Robin started unpacking the bags, while the boys caught up.
"So how did you two run into each other?" Robin asked stacking some books.
"Kinda just ran into him." Natsuki shrugged as she handed some more books to Robin. "He's pretty cool." Robin hummed as she observed Natsuki, and then the three boys. Ace sounded very familiar to her, but where?
"Hey how do you guys know each other exactly?" Natsuki spoke Robin's mind. Zoro looked to her.
"He's Luffy's older brother, we met him back in Alabasta." Natsuki ooh'd. "So you know about Luffy right?" Zoro asked turning back to Ace. Ace nodded with an expressionless look.
"Yeah I have." Natsuki walked over to the three boys, taking a seat between Zoro and Ace.
"Don't worry Robin's gonna find away to get her back, and if not her then my friends back home will!" when Ace showed no signs of lightening up she elbowed him in the ribs. "Plus my friends will take care of her if that's what your worried about." Ace rubbed his sore ribs.
"If you say so Natsu." He said giving her a small smirk.
"Who said you can call me Natsu?" she asked. He grinned.
"Why not? It's cute after all." Natsuki stuck her tongue out, feeling her cheeks heat up.
"Alright enough flirting you two." Robin chuckled. The two fire users looked to her tinted pink cheeks.
"I'm not flirting!" they said in union. Robin just chuckled.
"Alright well Chopper and I are going to start our research." She said heading to the piles of books. Chopper followed.
Natsuki looked to Zoro whom was a sleep.
"Now what?" Ace asked. She shrugged.
"We can draw stuff on Zoro's face." She smirked at Ace. He smirked back.
"Works for me."
So this chapter wasn't as good as I thought it would be when I started months ago… so yeah! I do have plenty of stuff still plan for this story and a lot of ideas from you guy, so keep giving me ideas cause I do love them and will try to put them in!
