Okay, first off, this IS NOT A MARY-SUE! The only power she posseses is the power to shrink/grow things. And not even living things! So don't assume, people. Anyways, this chapter, I'm sorry to say, follows the story line. I'll try to think of an idea of my own to do the rest of the story on, but still. I couldn't think of a way to introduce Heidi and Zoro and Luffy so yeah. I hope you like it!
DISCLAIMER: I don't own anything but Heidi/Caridi.
Chapter 2: Prison Cell
Zoro had been stuck in that prison for a few weeks now and he was really getting bored. He whistled a tune as he waited for the Navy to approach for his questioning. That was all he had to look forward to now. Besides, that kid, Luffy, wasn't really going to help him for real. He was just another one of those little prankster's he'd run into for a long time now.
The door swung open and for a split second, he thought it was that kid; two of the Navy officers waltzed in, a small girl held between them. She thrashed about. "LET ME GO!" she cried as they threw her down at Zoro's feet. He gave her a quizzical look, wondering what a girl of her height and weight was doing here.
So, he decided to ask. "What the hell are you doing her, lady?" he asked, looking at her as she lie on the dirt. She sat up, looking at Zoro before saying, "How am I supposed to know? They think I'm a pirate!" She silently fumed, mumbling incoherent things beneath her breath. She finally took to questioning this man whom she seemed to be about to spend a long time with.
"Why are you here?" she asked, standing and pulling at his binds. If she could walk about, so could he, right? "I'm a pirate hunter. I pissed off some guy and now they have me here." he mumbled. She stopped. "What!" She balled her fists angrily. "So now it's a criminal offence to make someone angry? Well then, they all deserve a fucking death sentence!"
Zoro rolled his eyes. After a few minutes of silence, he continued his interrogation. "What's your name?" She quit her violent tugging yet again, casting her eyes downward to the now very interesting ground. "I- I don't know." she said finally, biting her lip.
Zoro blinked. She had to be at least 17. What kind of 17 year-old didn't know their own name?
There was a huge crash from behind Zoro. He tried to crane his neck around to see the cause, but, sadly enough, the human body doesn't stretch that way. But the girl gasped. "What is that kid?" she questioned no one in particular.
The gates burst open, showing Luffy standing before him. Now, Zoro did the only thing he could do: his jaw fell lower than it had ever before. He walked before them. "I didn't know which one was yours, so I brought all of them." Luffy grinned, holding out the 3 swords. Zoro sighed, "Their all mine, now just get me down." "Right! I'm on it!" Luffy tugged at the ropes, but they didn't yield to him.
He scratched his head in thought. "Hm, I think I only made them tighter…" he murmured, still thinking. Zoro screamed, "JUST HURRY UP!" The girl looked over and saw that the Navy had come running, ready to attack the two fugitives and the intruder. She ducked under Luffy's arms and picked up two of the swords, hoping that the man, whom she still didn't know his name, didn't kill her for touching them, while Zoro was just silently thanking all Gods up there that she hadn't taken the white one.
She took on only one person at a time, only having beaten two by the time that Zoro had been freed. Zoro took the swords from her hands, his other placed in his mouth. "You make one more move, and you can be sure it will be your last." he vowed, holding his own against the Navy soldiers. To her surprise, they backed down, seeming to be fearful for their very lives.
A tall man with a metal jaw stepped forward, smirking ever-so slightly. "Ah, so you've decided to back down, have you?" The man's face was suddenly filled with rage as he bellowed, "GET YOUR ASSES IN GEAR AND KILL THEM!" They slowly lifted their rifles, putting them into position.
Zoro shook his head. "Morgan, come on. You're a cheap bastard if you do that…" he whispered to himself, though the girl could hear him just fine.
"Ready… FIRE!" There was an echo of gun-shot throughout the prison as the lead hurtled towards them. "I don't think so!" Luffy yelled, stepping in the way of the bullets. The girl gasped as he bounced the ammo back at the one's who fired it. A ripple of questions flowed through the Navy soldiers after evading their own attack. Morgan sighed as he explained the properties of the Devil's fruits and what they did.
After a little more fighting, the marines finally gave in, Morgan having been defeated.
The new duo of pirates walked towards the open gates, but the girl stayed back. Luffy stopped to look back. "Hey!" he called, gaining the girls attention. She looked up. "Yes?" she asked, still looking at the pirate. Where did she recognize that hat…
"You comin'?" Her eyes widened. Though she was still in a state of shock, she nodded. "COOL! You're name can be… Caridi!" Zoro gave him a look that clearly said, "Where the hell did that come from?" Luffy, seeing this, responded, "Well, she needed a name if I'm right. Oh, while we're introducing names, I'm Luffy!" "And I'm Zoro." the man with teal hair said, nodding at Caridi.
She smiled. Maybe not knowing who you were wasn't so bad. You could start over… and meet new people.
Note: Her name is pronounced like this: Car-i-dee.
Okay people? lol! I hope you liked it! R&R! DON'T FORGET! I really wanna know what you think!
And I don't care if it's a flame, just please go easy on me, this is my first One Piece fic.
P.S.: Yet again, NOT A FUCKING MARY-SUE! NONE OF MY STORIES TRY TO BE! -silently fumes-
Not trying to sound like a bitch, but I try really hard not to do Mary-Sues because that usually means that they suck.
Sorry if I sound like one, but I've had to run 3-4 miles today none-stop so I'm really pissed off right now.
LUV YAH ALL!
