1. Disclaimer PLEASE READ

Hi! I want to explain a few things before you read this fanfic.

1) This is an AU. So this story diverges from the Alabasta Arc a lot but there are still bits and pieces of that arc within this story. The Strawhats will show up but not with Vivi's aid.

2) Vivi is AGED-UP. She will be 20 years old in this story, not 16.

3) This AU is a weird reoccurring dream I have for some reason. I'm not really a fan of this ship, though I do respect those who do. I just felt like writing this story for some reason. Please don't send any hate to any shippers!

4) This fanfic is rated M because there will be sexual themes, discussions of miscarriage and infertility, graphic violence, alcohol, drug use, crude language, and other themes that I will post a warning for at the beginning of the chapter.

Thank you, please be patient because I am a college student, so I don't update regularly. Also, constructive criticism is welcomed.
