Never Had a Dream Come True

Book One:

Blind Ambition

Chapter Two:

"Out to Find a Savoir"

"I'm hungry!" Luffy announced to his crew only to be whack in the back of the head.

"YOU'RE THE ONE WHO ATE ALL THE FOOD" Sanji yelled. Luffy toppled over with his face on the floor of his ship.

"My manted mood" he mumbled with his face in the wood.

It was a bright and sunny day on the open sea and the straw hat pirates sat out on the deck enjoying the warmth.

"We're all hungry now that you ate everything" Usopp wined. He was leaning against the railing looking at the water. "And thirsty too." he grumbled.

"Well suck it up" Zolo snapped. "Were only a few days away from the Grand Line and I can't wait to find MeHawk."

"Aw come on Zolo we're gonna need food to keep our strength to fight" Usopp began.

"I'm scared, I don't wanna go to the Grand Line" Chopper said.

"WILL ALL OF YOU SHUT UP" Nami screamed. Luffy finally got up and turned to face her. "We're going to make a pit stop" she said looking at a map. "Usopp's right were gonna need food so I suggest we stop here" she said pointing to a small island a few miles away from the Grand Line.

"What's that?" Luffy asked.

"It's a place called Rosuto Mugen" she answered.

"I've read about that place in one of the books Doctor H. had" Chopper said. "It's supposed to be a horrible place ruled by one of the war lords" he shivered.

"Well it's the only place on our way unless you guys want to turn back around to buy supplies" Nami explained.

"Well I'm not afraid I'm the great Captain Usopp!" the long nose man announced.

"THEN LET'S GO!" Luffy yelled giving a hug smile.

"You heard the captain" Zolo grinned.

"So pirates are coming here huh?" a deep voice asked. The man sat in a dark room with the door ajar. He held what looked a radio and a faint muffled voice came out the out end. Erika crouched down near the door trying to hear what her father was saying.

"Monkey D. Luffy's his name" the voice said. She could hear her father give a small laugh filled with hate.

"The one worth 30,000,000?" he asked.

"That's the one" the voice answered.

Rika gasped and fell backwards. She had heard about this pirate from he had rescued many people from Arlong. Maybe just maybe she could get him to help her and her people too. Her hopes were interrupted by her father's voice again.

"I'll be sure to get em" he snickered.

"And the navy will get 30 right?" the voice asked.

"Right" the man answered. He hung up and walked towards the door.

Rika's mind screamed for her to run but before she could even stand up the door opened.

"My, my look who we have here" the man smiled that wicked smile.

She didn't say a word only stood up and looked straight into his eyes.

"Am I going to have to lock you up again for another 5 months?" he laughed. "You remember what happened the last time you disobeyed me."

"I'm sorry" she said through gritted teeth and clenching her fists.

"Good, now be a good little girl and go harass the people of the town" he grinned.

Her body froze and tried as hard as she could not to blow up and attack him.

But the fire that burned in her heart was too strong and she opened her mouth to release her powerful wail. Just as she was about to scream a man in a black uniform came running down the marble hallway.

"Lord Neikan!" the officer yelled.

The man turned his back towards his daughter to face the officer.

"Yes what is it?" Neikan asked.

"It's the pirates! There here!" he answered.

Neikan smiled and looked back a Rika. "Do not let me catch you up to anything again for if you do you will regret the day you were born" he told her with a calm tone.

Her mouth closed and she scoffed turning away and walking in the other direction.

"Follow her" Neikan frowned looking at the officer.

"Yes sir" he bowed.

"And if she's does anything I don't mind if you hurt her just don't kill her, that's my job."

"I will find you Luffy, I have to" Rika thought running out the huge iron doors.
