Disclaimer: I do not own Fairy Tail or One Piece.

Also, I would like to give special thanks to crysiblu from DeviantArt for giving permission to use one of the outfits she draws for Lucy. So if you want to check her out you can, she has a whole lot of other cool Fairy Tail related content.

And now, on to comments.

Alright, I can't wait to see what she learned, but what about the obsidian keys on Skypeia.

now that these chapter are here, I think you need to put a little more time with Lucy because these chapters were pretty much just long overviews of what happened in one piece and then near the end we get some stuff lucy does,

I feel like now especially in the time skip area she should be more involved in what happens

I really like this story, and you can choose to do whatever you want with it.

I know, and I apologize for that, but One Piece is a very long winded series and I do have other fanfics I want to work on as well. The following chapters are going to contain a lot more with Lucy though, now that we've gotten through the OP arcs. And the obsidian keys on Skypeia, Lucy already has them, she picked them up during that arc and as you already know, the obsidian keys are OCs that I have made for Lucy. They haven't had much of a role in this fanfic, as they were meant for another fanfic, The Celestial Ranger, which I have discontinued until the completion of this one.

Lucy arrived on Sabaody later than she expected. In fact, it was the exact day they were supposed to meet up. Turns out, Starfall Island was farther from Sabaody than Lucy had originally anticipated, and Aquila had had to stop at several islands to rest. As such, it wasn't until the exact day they were supposed to meet up. When she got to the island, she dismissed Aquila and Merry and began walking to Shakky's bar. She was slightly drained from weeks of having two spirits almost constantly summoned, but she had kind of gotten used to it.

The island had become a bit more lawless since two years before as the Marines had moved their base to the New World. However, because of rumors circulating around about the Straw Hats returning to the island, there were several Marines patrolling the island, as well as several Straw Hat imposters. Brook was on the island giving a show as the superstar musician known as "Soul King", Sanji also arrives on the island and promptly begins to cry at the sight of real women as he bids farewell to the okama that had dropped him off while flipping them off. Nami and Usopp encounter each other at a bar, where they dispatch of a fake Nami and Luffy that had been trying to recruit strong crew members. Robin arrives at the island as well while Chopper is taken in by one of the fake Straw Hat crews.

Upon arriving at Shakky's bar, Lucy finds out that Zoro had been on the island as well, and that Franky had arrived ten days afterwards, followed by Nami, Usopp, Chopper, and Brook. During their two year absence, Duval and his men had protected the Thousand Sunny. Shakky decided to mention how Zoro came to her bar every day to ask if Lucy had arrived yet, and the thought made the blonde mage's heart flutter. With that information gathered, Lucy left to search for Zoro, just missing the blonde cook as he arrived at Shakky's bar. Meanwhile, another fake Luffy is threatening a hooded man with a pistol, but is promptly knocked out by the man's haki, that man being the real Luffy of course.

While that was happening, Robin returned to the ship where she met Franky who had seemingly gotten an upgrade. Chopper runs away from the fake Straw Hats when they refused to send some people to rescue the kidnapped fake Robin, disbelieving that they could do such a horrible thing. Meanwhile Sanji tries to buy some fish from a fisherman, but he was too busy panicking about a client that had wanted to go fishing but had gotten on a pirate ship instead of the fishing boat and went under water, and Sanji got the feeling he knew exactly who this person was so he told the fisherman not panic as "that guy" could take care of himself. Sure enough, the pirate ship burst through the surface of the water . . . cut into two pieces, Zoro, bearing new scars, sitting on the mast before jumping to shore.

He turns to Sanji. "Oi . . . Ero-cook . . . have you seen Lucy?"

"Hah? Like I would be here looking at your ugly mug, Marimo if I'd seen my darling Lucy-swan!? All I know is that she's somewhere on the island." Sanji replied.

Zoro's eye narrowed slightly at the cook. " . . . She's not your anything, you shitty cook." He said before turning and walking off briskly, eager to reunite with the woman he had been thinking and dreaming about for two long years during his training with Mihawk. There had been the underlying tone of "she's mine" to his voice.

Sanji chased after him, telling Zoro that he and the rest of the crew didn't have the time to search for him when he got lost and that they should just go to the ship and wait for the others. Zoro doesn't really like the idea, still wanting to find Lucy as soon as possible, but he supposed that going to the ship was the better idea. So, reluctantly, he agreed. Meanwhile, Nami and Usopp had met up with Chopper to save the kidnapped fake Robin that Chopper believed to be the real one. Luffy follows the fake Zoro and Sanji to the fake Luffy. A little bit later, Chopper, Nami, and Usopp return to the ship and are happily reunited with the real Robin and Franky.

Back with the real Luffy, the fake Luffy orders the other pirates that have joined him to attack Luffy, but before anything can happen, they're surrounded by Marines. Zoro and Sanji hear the commotion and of course come running. The Marines attack when the fake Luffy surrenders, and then the Pacifistas arrive. It is then that the fake Straw Hats' ruse was revealed, a bunch of low bounty pirates tricking higher bounties into joining them using the Straw Hats' notorious strength. The Pacifista finds and targets the real Luffy and fires a laser at him. Luffy dodges but loses his disguise, causing the fake Straw Hats to nearly wet themselves when they realize they had threatened the real deal. The rest of the Marines run while Sentomaru confronts Luffy and orders the Pacifista to fire again. Luffy dodges again and uses Gear Second, jumping into the air and swiftly taking it out in punch and leaving a crater.

Deciding he didn't want to cause too much trouble before their departure, Luffy leaves to head to the ship, which is when he sees Zoro and Lucy running towards him. Another Pacifista got between them but was swiftly dealt with as it was met with an attack from both of the men. They soon rush off to rejoin with their crew, who have been joined by Brook. Zoro seem very disappointed when he sees that the only one missing . . . is Lucy.

Elsewhere on the island, Lucy was still searching for Zoro when she encounters one of the Pacifistas. It looks at her and recognizes her as "Summoner" Lucy Heartfilia.

"Summoner Lucy Heartfilia, Bounty; 700,000,000 beli. Wanted Dead." The Pacifista proclaims aloud as it identifies her.

"SEVEN HUNDRED MILLION!? WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?!" Lucy exclaimed.

Apparently, when she damaged the Light fruit user, it had gotten her a lot of the wrong kind of attention in the Marine Headquarters. Their initial suspicions about Lucy from Aokiji's initial report were proven correct. It seems that Lucy's magic gave her a certain loophole around the abilities of a Logia type fruit user, as Celestial Magic was not an element on its own, and a very powerful magic in the hands of a gifted mage. As such, the spell Urano Metria was able to damage Kizaru, negating his Light fruit abilities, whereas any of Lucy's spirits and herself would have failed to damage him.

Instead of answering her, the Pacifista opened it's mouth to fire a laser at her, making clear it's intentions to attack her. Rather than running, like she might have done the past, Lucy stood her ground and confidently prepared to fight. She had spent the last two years training to like mad and she was now much stronger than she was before.

Taking Taurus' key out and pressing it to her chest, she calls out, "Star Dress! Form Taurus!"

Her body became encased in a golden light and when it dissipated she was left standing in different attire. Lucy was wearing a cow print bikini top with fringe, a black leather choker with a cowbell attacked to it, cow print arm coverings that went into brown leather gloves. For her lower half, she wore black leather pants with the right leg missing, which were held up with a brown leather belt that had Taurus' symbol on the buckle, and final she wore brown leather mid-shin boots. Lucy's long blonde hair, which had grown out significantly during her time on the island, was done up into side buns on either side of her head with two locks hanging down, framing her face.

The Pacifista fired a laser at her and she was forced to dodge out of the way. Quickly regaining her composure, she took her magic whip from her belt and activated it. She whipped it at the Pacifista and it stretched before securely wrapping around it. Gripping the handle tightly, she threw the Pacifista over her head, slamming him into the ground, then she did it again, and again. The whip's grip loosened and retracted before Lucy used it to rip up a chunk of the ground, then used the whip to slam it into the Pacifista, destroying it.

Lucy smirked as she looked at the defeated Pacifista, which served as proof of her new strength, but of course, this Star Dress form made her super strong, like the spirit it was for. Deactivating the spell, she began heading towards where the ship had been hidden, eager to see Zoro again. She had looked for him on the island long enough and figured that maybe he was already at the ship, and if he wasn't she'd wait for him there.

When she got there, she would see that the entire crew was already there, waiting for her. Including Zoro. Grinning brightly, she ran up the gangplank and to Zoro, and he seemed pretty damned happy to see her too, judging by his grin. Lucy was about to throw herself into his arms but stopped just a foot from him and he gave her a confused and disappointed look.

'That's right . . . he doesn't want the others to know that we're . . . together.' Lucy thought, looking crestfallen.

Zoro had been confused about why she had stopped. He ignored the others in the background, who had been silenced by Robin's hands, which also served to stop Sanji's nose from bleeding at the sight of the blonde mage. He examined Lucy. He could sense that she was a lot stronger than she had been two years ago. Zoro also noted that her body was leaner and more toned, though still just as voluptuous, not that he cared about that. Her clothes were different too.

She was wearing a white cutoff shirt with sleeves that poofed at the elbows and showed a generous amount of cleavage. Over that she wore a bluish black jacket that ended mid-bicep and was tied to match the length of her shirt. The sleeves of the jacked were tied with a gold ribbon at the end. Her short shorts were the same color as the jacket and were held up with a leather belt. There was a blue ribbon holding up her usual side ponytail. On her hands she wore backless, black leather gloves, and to complete the look she wore her usual knee high boots. (Thank you crysiblu!)

Zoro figured out why she had stopped once he had seen her crestfallen look. He didn't care about the crew knowing their feelings for each other anymore, he hadn't seen her in two years and he'd be damned if he let the presence of everyone else stop him from kissing her. Taking a step forward, Zoro put an arm around Lucy's waist and pulled her to him until she was flush against him. At the same time, he craned his head down and mashed his lips against hers.

Lucy let out a surprised squeak, stiffening slightly before relaxing and closing her eyes, kissing him back happily as she reached up and wrapped her arms around his neck. Neither noticed the muffled screams of rage coming from Sanji. Robin and Nami were smiling. Luffy looked confused, Franky, Brook, Chopper, and Usopp were shocked at the sight.

Zoro and Lucy had no idea how long they had been kissing for, but it felt like an eternity, and neither of them minded, both of them wishing that the kiss could last forever. In all actuality, they had spent several minutes kissing and holding each other until they were breathless. They pulled away from each other, lightly panting as they looked into each other's eyes. Speaking of which, Lucy gently traced the scar over Zoro's eye with a sad look, as if she was thinking about how much pain he must have gone through during his training and when he lost his eye.

Unfortunately, their "private" moment was interrupted when some marine ships arrived and began firing cannonballs at the Thousand Sunny. They were stopped by the Shichibukai Boa Hancock, who Luffy told them was a friend, creating a diversion so the Straw Hats could escape. Franky opened some valves under the ship to let air into the jelly-like substance coating the shit to expand it, causing it to form a bubble around the sunny. At this point, the marines had stopped chasing them, due to the combined efforts of the friends everyone had made. Franky removes the floating bag from the ship and the Thousand Sunny begins sinking into the sea. The Straw Hats began their journey to Fishman Island.

And that was chapter 21 everyone, we're in the home stretch, only two more chapters to go. I'm going to be a bit sad to see it go, but happy to be able to continue one of my other stories. The good news is, after tomorrow I have a whole month break from college so I should have plenty of time to write.

I hope you enjoyed and please leave a review.

Again, special thanks to crysiblu for giving me permission to use that outfit.
