Author's note: Hey guys, I decieded to change this chapter slightly.
The story is still the same but i have changed the devil fruit.
Originally I wanted to give Psycho the Devil fruit, the god Enel had and just miss out the the skypiea arc, but when I was planing the next few chapters I realised it would give her too much power for the rest of the story to make sense, so hopefully changing the devil fruit will mean the rest of the story works better.
Sorry for the change, but hope you enjoy.
Please let me know what you think :)
I'll always be there
Chapter 5 : Wind Wind Fruit
It had now been five years Psycho had first met Ace and Luffy, and all three children had grown up alot since then.
Ace, who was now 16, had developed a taller more muscular figuer, his hair was still messy however it was slightly longer and the childish freckles where now more notacible, he now wore a light yellow shirt that he never buttond up paired with a pair of dark grey, knee-length shorts held up with a orange belt, with a large red 'A' on a silver buckle, he also still wore black slipper like shoes and an orange elbow guard on his left arm.
Luffy was now 13, his looks hadn't changed much at all, he had got taller and, like ace, his messey black hair was a bit longer, he still usally wore a dark blue t-shirt, paired with light blue, knee-length shorts with white cuffs, and black sandles, his straw hat, a gift from the priate red haired shanks, was always on his head or tied around his neck.
Psycho, now 11 years old, had changed the most, she had grown alot although she was still short compared to her brothers, her black ,wavy, hair now reached her elbows, and her tanned face, like Ace was dotted with child like freckles, she wore a simple light blue t-shirt, red shorts and black sandles. Her shorts reviled the scars that curved around her left leg in three large scratch marks, the first starting at the top of her thigh, and the last ending just below her knee.
Considering the fact they where not biologically related they looked remarkably similar, if a person didn't know ant diffrent they would easly pass as siblings.

Psycho skipped along the beach, a task made difficult by the large wodden chest she was carrying, when she passed throught the thick layer of trees that concealed the bay from sight, she was met by her brothers practice fight in the sand infront of the grounded ship they had made their base.
On psychos arrivle the two boys stoped the fight, which Ace was clearly winning, and greeted her, she walked over to them dumping the box on the ground.
"You where gone a long time, you said you were just going into the village to ask Makino somthing, and where did you get the box?" Ace asked, Psycho nodded in agreement to his statment,
" That was what I planed to do, but when i got to partys barthere was this pirate in there threatining to hurt Makino if she didn't give them free drinks, so i asked nicely for them to leave..." Psycho explained innocently,
"You asked them nicely...?" Ace questioned, an amused exprision on his face,as he looked Psycho over noting the scuff marks that covered her body,
"Yes, and when he laughed at me and tryed to throw me across the bar, I beat him and his crew up" She said bluntly a small innocent smile on her face, Ace smiled amused by her child like innocence.
"That still dosn't explain where you got the box" he said curiosuly, glancing at the wooden chest on the ground infront of Psycho
"oh, right that. After i beat them up i took it from one of the crew, he didn't argue" she smiled, 'he didn't argue because he was unconcious' ,she thought.
" You're way too reckless for your own good" he chucled, but there was a concerned edge in his voice. Ace laughed ruffleing her hair, she growled in mock annoyence but made no attempt to stop him.

Psycho placed the chest on the deck of the grounded ship, while she and her brothers had lunch, Luffy had managed to steal some meat from the kitchin of the cottage eirler that morning and Makino had made Psycho some sandwhichs as a thank you for getting rid of the pirates from the bar, so they had a good amount of food for once however Luffy managed to eat most of it.
After lunch Luffy fell asleep, Ace had debated waking him up, but Psycho thought they should let him sleep, so insted they decied to practice their fighting skills. For the past few years Ace had taught Psycho everything he knwe about fighting and she had become a very strong fighter, althought she had not yet been able to beat Ace, he had to admit she had come close a few times.
Ace strengthed his satnce, waiting for Psycho to make the first move, she gave in, charging tawords him, however instead of making a head on attack she slipped behind him, kicking him square in the back, Ace made an attempt to doge, but he was to slow and the blow knocked him to the ground, he quickly spun round kicking Psychos feet out from under her bringing her to the ground as he jumped to his feet, Psycho rolled onto her back just in time to move out of the way of the kick aimed for her stomach, she pushed herself to her feet, she punched at Aces head but he caught her hand, once he had hold of her hand he turned round pulling her over his back and throwing her to the ground once again. The fight continued like that, with them almost getting beten then recovering, for about 10 munites, until Ace slipped behind Psycho hooking an arm around her neck and pushing her to the ground, before kneeling above her one hand on her chest holding her down and the other curled in a fist, held a few centimeters from her face. Ace let out a sigh
" I win again" he panted victoriously, Rade chuckled pushing Ace off her, moved easily, laying in the sand next to her, they lay there for a while catching their breath.
Ace stood up, offering a hand to Psycho, she took it bounching to her feet, they climbed back onto the ship where Luffy was still sleeping, he was sleep talking and they decieded to watchi him for a while,
" mmmm...Im gonna be king of the pirates...mmmm...king...mm" Luffy murmered as he slept.
"No prises for guessing what hes dreaming about" ace chuckled softly
"mmmmm... THATS MY MEAT...mmmm" Luffy shouted before ruterning to the soft murmering.
The outburst made Ace and Psycho jump, and at that point Ace decied to wake Luffy up.
The three of them sat on the deck of the ship throwing pebbles into the water enjoying the warm spring air.
"Hey, psycho, whats in that box" Luffy asked curisoty getting the better of him,
"Hmn, I don't know, I havn't atcullay opende it yet" she ancwered her own curiosity taking over as she walked over to where she had previously placed the box.
"Open it open it!" Luffy eurged enthusatcily, Psycho flung the top of the chest back looking inside, what she saw puzzled all of them,
"I just looks like some sort of...fruit" she picked it up examining it, it was light blue, and looked like a large pare, it was covered in swirls and light green spiraling steam.
"Is that a..." Luffy said stearing at the fruit
"Devil fruit" Ace finshed his sentance for him
"Sure is" Psycho nodded in agreement " Well here gose nothing" she said taking a large bite out of it, basicly eating the whole thing, before Luffy or Ace could stop her.
" EW! it tasts so bitter! gross" she said, swallowing it.
"Do you feel any different, what can you do!" Luffy asked exitment ovious in his voice
"I don't know" Psycho held out her hand, consentrating on it, a small spirle of air twisted around her hand creating what looked like a mini tornado around her arm "wow, cool" she mumbled, she relaxed her arm and the spirle of air dissapred.
Psycho looked at Luffy and Ace who stood wide looking eyed at her
"Pretty cool, huh?" she smiled at them, they nodded in agreement
"From what we just saw, I would guess you can control the wind now" Ace stated, still a bit shocked.
"So what happens now, after eating a devil fruit i mean?" Psycho asked, slightly confused
"Well it means you can't swim any more, and I like i just said the devil friut you ate means tou can controle the air around you " Ace stated "You just need to learn how to control it thats all, then you can use it ti improve you'r fighting" he smiled sheepshly.
"Easey for you to say" Psycho grumbled
~~~~~~~X~~~~~~~
It took two weeks for Psycho to be able to control when her body was in wind form, or not, but after understanding the basics of how the fruits powers worked she was learning new moves fast and she learned she could change the effects of her attack by changing how wide the attack was.
The wind wind devil fruit was a logia type, which means she is able to control, create and transform into wind at will.
Ace and Luffy had agreed to help her train to use the powers properly.
By the time half a year passed Psycho was able to hit targets slashing attacks, she was also able to change her whole body into air.
She trained constantly in order to keep up with her brothers and they helped her where possable because she was their little sister and seeing her do well made them as happy as their own sucess.
