I realized I haven't done this before but, disclaimer I do not own One Piece, only Crystal.

I woke up to the sounds of Nami yelling. She didn't sound nervous but she did sound like she was rushing everyone. I then realized it was about late morning so I got out of bed and put on my blue sweatshirt again and brown pants. I didn't have any clothes or money to borrow from Nami so I had to stick with my same clothing.
I got up and looked around my room for my staff. I saw it leaning against the nightstand next to my bed. I grabbed it and walked up to the deck. When I got there the sky was cloudy and some white powder was falling from the sky. It covered the ship making it looked covered with a white frosting almost. Luffy, Usopp, and Chopper were outside with heavy coats on playing in the white powder. I was curious on what they were doing so I walked over to them.
"Hey guys, what is this stuff?" I asked and they looked shocked.
"You don't know what snow is even though you ate the Winter-Winter fruit?" Asked Usopp and I just nodded.
"Well snow is cold and comes from the season winter, it's basically frozen rain but powdery," Nami explained as she walked down the stairs and was wearing a heavy coat as well and some jeans with boots.
"Crystal?" Chopper looked at me worriedly.
"Yes Chopper?"
"Aren't you cold out here?" He asked shivering and I just shook my head no.
"You look cold though so you should go inside and eat something warm," I said referring to all three of the boys.
"Ok!" They actually agreed but it was probably from the food that got their attention.
Nami then looked at me and smiled. I smiled back and then walked over to the railing. Nami followed me and leaned on the railing.
"We are heading to a winter island; no one's going to be living on that island so you could start your training for your devil fruit. Robin and Chopper could help you if you like; heck we could even get Zoro to help you learn how to use your staff in battle. Well Zoro won't help you learn it with powers but like a real weapon," Nami offered and I just smiled.
"That would be nice, I don't want to be a burden forever," I said smiling even wider than I have in a while.
"Then we will start right when we land, first I want to give you a pair of clothes and test something out," She said smiling mischievously.
"That would be nice, I'm kinda warm in these clothes," I said scratching the back of my head while chuckling.
"Really? Well I have some clothes that are similar but they are good for you in this weather," Nami said pulling me to her room.
She started to go through her closet to find the 'perfect outfit' for me. She then yelled 'Aha!' and threw me the clothes and ran out of the room before I could say anything. I took off my clothes and put on the clothes she gave me blindly. When I looked in the mirror she had next to her closet I just gasped. I was wearing a dark blue shirt that now had frost on it from me, it had a big V-neck that showed off my chest and was the same color of my sweatshirt. I then got to my shorts, they were the same brown from my pants and were very short. They reached just under my butt but there was still room where I could be comfortable.
I then just shrugged and walked out of Nami's room. I held my staff while I walked up to the kitchen, I could tell everyone was there with my hearing. I reached the door and opened it, and when I did mostly everyone gasped. I was confused until Robin spoke up.
"Aren't you cold Crystal-san?" Robin just looked at me with amusement.
"No, should I be?" I questioned and everybody just looked at each other.
"It's because of her devil fruit everyone so just calm down," Nami said bored.
"Oh" everyone said and then Sanji came running up to me.
"CRYSTAL-SWAN! YOU LOOK SO LOVELY TODAY! Are you sure you aren't cold?! I could heat you up with a BIG hug!" Sanji practically screamed at me. I flinched and covered my ears from the loud sound.
"OI love cook you are hurting her ears with your nonsense!" Zoro yelled and I flinched again.
"OH YEA?!" Sanji yelled and it then turned into a yelling and screaming fight.
"WILL YOU QUIT HURTING CRYSTAL?!" Luffy surprisingly yelled and everyone went silent. By that point I was covering my ears and sat on the ground against the wall.
"Sorry…" They both mumbled.
"Crystal, are you alright?" Chopper whispered and I nodded. I stood up and some people looked at me worriedly and sadly but others went on with their life.
"I'm going to go outside for a bit," I said smiling at Chopper and he nodded smiling too.
"Don't forget your staff again Crystal," Usopp said and I smiled at him.
"Thanks Usopp," I said grabbing my staff and walking outside.
There was quite a bit of 'snow' as Nami called it. I walked in it and finally sat in the middle of it. I felt very comfortable sitting in this snow and I smiled. I felt a weird connection with it and closed my eyes focusing on the connection. I then felt a weird sensation go through my body and I opened my eyes. Snow was floating all around me and I grinned very widely. I stood up and the snow still floated in the air. I looked around to see the balls of snow to be all around me and I got an idea.
I imagined the snow to start swirling in a circle like a tornado, but not enough to really start anything. I smiled and let it all fall to the ground gently. I then got another idea but it was better. I sat down in the snow again and focused on it. I then felt the snow gather underneath me and I opened my eyes. I saw the snow made me lift off the grown a bit so I was floating. I smiled and I made the snow make me go higher until I was higher than the ship. I stood up and I started to float around the ship like I was surfing.
I yelled in pure excitement but that gathered the attention from my crew mates. They came outside and saw me and gasped. Luffy just laughed jumping up and down. I laughed along as everybody joined in the laughing session. I then floated back onto the deck to be instantly hit with a hug from Luffy.
"That was amazing Crystal!" He said and I just smiled.
"Yea, can you do that again?" Usopp asked me.
"That's the start of your training right there!" Nami exclaimed while clapping.
"Well thanks guys, and yes I can do it again, would anyone like to take a ride?" I asked and the three fools in front of me raised their hands jumping up and down. I just chuckled and picked Luffy because he was the captain and can order me to make him ride first.
"YAY! Let's go Crystal!" Luffy yelled and I smiled while everybody watched as I sat in the middle of the snow.
"Now Luffy I want you to sit across from me and no standing up while doing this or we might fall, do you understand because if you stand up once I won't let you ride anymore," I said in a stern voice and he nodded seriously, "Alright then let me start."
I watched Luffy sit across from me and waited for me. I smiled and closed my eyes finding the connection of the snow. I found the connection and started to gather the snow up around me and lifted us in the air. Luffy started laughing and yelling down at the crew. I smiled and opened my eyes and stood up. Luffy pouted and crossed his arms over his chest.
"I thought we couldn't stand up while doing this," He said annoyed.
"I said you couldn't stand up but how can I see where we are going if I'm sitting down?" I asked and he gave up arguing. I then thought about that dream I had the other day. I looked at Luffy and sat down getting serious. He noticed too and got serious, I was ready for a long talk so I ordered the snow to keep on circling the top of the ship so no one can here our conversation.
"Luffy I had a dream the other day but it felt really real," I said looking down.
"What happened?" He hesitated in asking.
"Well…you were asking where I was, over and over again. You kept on punching the ground in frustration too. Zoro came and told you, you guys would get me back and handed you a note from some 'people'," I said looking at Luffy with a hint of fear. Luffy nodded taking it in before asking a question.
"What did the note say?" He asked and I just looked down again.
"It said where I was located and where they were taking me, Zoro said it was a trap but you didn't care and yelled that you would get me back from the 'people'," I said still looking down at the ground.
"Do you know who the 'people' are?" Luffy asked and I just shook my head.
"No, but Luffy what if the dream becomes a reality?" I asked looking at him with complete fear in my eyes.
"I would never let that happen to you, thank you for telling me Crystal," he said smiling at the end.
"Thank you Luffy, how about we get back I'm kinda hungry from not eating breakfast," I said chuckling and he laughed too.
"Yea, I'm hungry too," He said and we flew back onto the deck. I felt a little weak from using my power for a long time but paid it no mind and walked into the kitchen with Luffy. The rest of the crew went back inside because we took a long time and they were becoming cold.
"Hey Sanji, could I have some soup please?" I asked and he smiled nodding at me.
"SANJI! I want meat now!" Luffy yelled pounding on the table.
"Shut up you idiot! You just ate breakfast!" Luffy pouted and I laughed.
"So Crystal-san, how did you figure out your power?" Brook asked me and I shrugged.
"Well, I just got a feeling and imagined whatever I wanted with the snow and it happened," I said and Sanji then placed the bowl of soup in front of me. I said thanks and started to eat it.
"Oh right, so Crystal here is going to start training her on the next island and I wanted some people to help out," Nami said placing a piece of paper on the table.
"What's that Nami?" Usopp asked Nami and she just smiled.
"It's the training plan for Crystal here," Nami just looked plain evil as she read over the 'training plan'.
"So we are going to have Crystal train with…" I zoned out while thinking about my own training plan. I thought I could just spend time in my natural environment and get a feel for my surroundings and learn myself. Then I could train with Zoro, Luffy, Sanji and Nami. Zoro and Nami would teach me how to fight with my staff and Luffy and Sanji would teach me hand to hand combat.
"…So what do you think Crystal?" Nami asked sweetly pulling me out of my thoughts. I looked around and everyone looked scared. I was confused until I realized what we had been talking about.
"Well how about…" I then explained my training session and everyone agreed looking relieved. Nami grumbled some choice words and I just chuckled. I then got caught up in a conversation with Robin and Franky talking about their ship named 'The Thousand Sunny'.
(Time skip to later in the day)
The rest of the day I had been bonding with each crew mate. I did different activities with everyone. Brook taught me how to read sheet music. Franky showed me some of his blueprints. Nami showed me how to make maps. I just watched Zoro train while occasionally talking a short conversation. Sanji taught me how to chop certain fruits and veggies. Chopper taught me how to bandage someone up. Usopp showed me all his cool inventions. And Luffy told me all the different adventures they had been on. I had a lot of fun today and it was now dinner time.
"Luffy stop stealing food!"
"I don't care what color!"
"So what do you think…"
"Give me it!"
"God damn it!"
I just looked at all the people shouting and sweat dropped. I never knew it was this hectic at dinner time. Oh with Luffy stealing food and all the arguments going on all at the same time made my ears hurt a bit but I dealt with it. And I never realized that all my senses were going crazy unless I focused on them and that seemed weird to me. The food should be hurting my nose from the smell or my hearing should be gone by now from all the screaming the crew often does. I assume it's just because I have gotten used to it.
I finished my food and put my plates in the sink. Everyone else was still eating but I was exhausted and decided to go to bed. I placed my staff next to my bed and got under the covers in my one pair of pajamas that I had and went into a peaceful sleep once again.

Wow that took me a little bit to write considering a lot of it wasn't dialogue. That's fine though, and if you guys didn't realize Crystal carries her staff almost everywhere except if I say otherwise. Well I hope you liked it and review!
