Sorry for the wait. And no Luffy isn't alive in this story.
Back, on deck…
CRASH! BANG! THUD!
"What the hell is going on down there?!" the Okama captain asked with some concern. "How hard is it for them to get me a drink?" Hanson then proceeded to order two of his men to check on the other three downstairs, which they nodded and followed his command. "What's this?" Hanson said, looking at a black mark on the floor boards. "Fufufufufu. Oh James-kun, be a good sport and clean that up! ~"
The ship's Capt. only gave a frown with folded arms, indicating defiance to the captor. He then gave an evil smirk, pulled out a gun and pointing it to one of the hostages, pretty young lady, causing James' eyes to widen in fear.
"Y-y-you wouldn't!" girl cried.
"Maybe, maybe not…" the Pirate Captain grinned like a Chester cat. "But that depends on James-kun's compliance to me. ~ Fufufufufu!"
Left with no choice, Capt. James picked himself up towards the spot Hanson pointed at. He got down on his knees wiped the stain off, with the Okamas giggling in the background adding to the humiliation.
"See that wasn't so hard now, was it?" he smiled. "My new ship should be as smooth and good-looking as me, should it not?"
"YES CAPTAIN! ~" his crew answered happily.
"Bastard, you won't get away with this!" he muttered just loud enough for the pirate to hear. He hated being treated like some sort-of slave.
:D
"Insolent fool!" Hanson yelled, knocking him aside into a wall with a strong kick, causing the captives to gasp. "I've been in the pirate business for over 20 years, no can ever catch me, EVER! Now, get up! I think you missed a spot when cleaning! ~ Fufufufufu!" He then pointed to his dirt covered shoes. "But wipe my shoes; I got dirton them again. ~ Fufufufufu!" he laughed. "But don't you dare ruin them if you value the lives of your men and passengers. ~"
Before the cruise captain could swallow his pride again, one of Hanson's subordinates ran up to the Okama with a panicked look
"Captain!~ Captain!~" he cried. "We've got BIG trouble!"
The Okama then handed over a pair of binoculars to his ballerina dancing captain. But from his bug-eyed reaction through the pair of binoculars he looked really worried as his hostages cheered and cried out for help, James couldn't help but smirk at the Okamas' expense.
"WHAT THE HELL ARE THEY DOING HERE?!" he screamed.

Down below…
The two Okamas rushed downstairs and were shocked to see three of their crewmates lying unconscious on the ground with a Strawhat girl standing over them. After the raven-haired beauty stretched her sore back, she noted the afro boy staring at her in awe on the floor with a few bruises. She walked over to check up on the petite boy her recovered her in the barrel.
"Are you ok?" she asked, in a sweet tone.
"I'm fine, just surprised that's all" the boy said as he got up, with a blush across his face.
The young girl then looked around with her dark chocolate coloured eyes, to see the trashed storage room she was in and blinked when she saw two more with slacked jaws behind her. This caused the Chore Boy next to her to tense up while seeing more pirates on the vessel.
:D
"Who are you, men-ladies?" Rose asked.
"What do you mean, 'who are you, men-ladies?!' the pirate pair all shouted in union. "Who the hell are you?!"
However, the girl is unaffected by their outburst and noticed the knocked out pink wearing men lying on the floor.
"What are they doing lying on the ground?" the Kuja asked, pointing at the downed men. "That looks even less comfortable to fall asleep in than in a barrel, plus they could catch a cold."
"You were the one who knocked them out, ya know…" Kevin sweatdropped.
:D
Upon hearing this, the pirates then pulled out their swords on them.
"Wait a minute, are you two picking a fight with us when you know we're viscous pirates?" said the fat cross-dresser.
"I'm starving, do you know were the food is, 'fro-san?" the girl asked, ignoring the pirate duo.
"Well, I think the food store is the 3rd door on the right" the teen told, pointing down the hall also ignoring them for a moment.
"HEY! DON'T IGNORE US, WHEN WE'RE TALKING TO YOU!" the pirate men yelled with comical fangs, gaining their attention once more.
They lifted their cutlasses up in the air ready to slice the teenagers, Orochi the snake hid back underneath his master's shirt. Kevin, however, was frozen in fear and looked in fright before closing his eyes waiting for the slashes to hit him.
But they didn't.
For the girl who was unfazed by their action, then without warning punched the swords with one hit each, breaking them in half and thrown up to the ceiling. The two men shook in fear and disbelief of what they just witnessed, while one of the 'fro boy's curious eyes opened and couldn't help but to gape at the girl.
:D
"What's wrong you men-ladies?" she said with a bored tone. "You two are really weird."
"W-what the hell are you?" the fat one squeaked.
The girl brushed dirt off her vest, looked up and smiled.
"Oh me, you can just call me the 'Speed Demon'. Hi" The Kuja warrior said ,with a more noble tone. "Chahahahaha!"
"Damnit, if our swords don't work…" one of the muscular transvestite growled. "Then, we'll use guns!"
With that they pulled out their Flintlocks on the teens and Kevin being even more shocked and warned the pretty girl to get down.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
The two girly-looking men emptied their magazines at the kids… but not a single bullet hit their mark. The girl then revealed a handful of iron-ball bearings in her hands with a toothy grin, showing her pearly-white teeth. If the two guys in the room were surprised before, now they were completely flabbergasted with dropped jaws.
"H-h-how did you?-"
"I just plucked them out of the air, one by one" Rosemary chimed with a toothy grin, while cracking her knuckles. "Since you men-ladies tried to attack me, you'll have no problems with me fighting back, won't you?"
The two Okamas had a worried look on their faces while covered in bullets of sweat.
"Fast-Fast… Pistol!"
"W-w-w-wait! Hold it!" they pleaded.
BAM! BAM!
With only two quick, powerful punches to their stomachs each, the Okama pirates collapsed down to floor in pain and beaten. Amazed, Kevin was filled with so many questions.
"What… what just happened?" asked Coby.
"Beats me" Rose shrugged. "I just woke up."
:D
Who is this girl? Where did she come from? How the hell is she so strong?
The Chore Boy decided to save those thoughts for later and was intrigued to the matter at hand to figure out what's going. He stood up and grabbed the fat Okama and pulled him up to eye level with him for interrogation.
"Okay, you guys say you're pirates, right?" with a serious tone and the pirate nodding. "Well, what you doing here on this cruise ship?"
"W-w-w-we are… raiding… it" he squeaked, surprised by the teen's incredible grip.
D:
This caused Kevin's eyes widen, let the Okama drop to the ground and peep through a small window to see above deck. He didn't see much but enough to know that his colleagues, passengers and the captain were taken hostage. This left him in shock; he had never been in this kind of situation before.
As he gazed through the window, the two Pirates ran away in terror dragging their unconscious crewmates up deck with the Strawhat girl not paying much attention to them.
"Oh man, this is bad" Kevin muttered to himself while remembering girl he rescued. "Oi, pretty girl? I don't know who you are but you'd better hi-"
"Meshi! ~ Meshi! ~ Meshi! ~" the teen girl sang while skipping to the food storage cellar down the hall.
"Oi! WAIT DON'T YOU KNOW HOW MUCH DANGER WE'RE IN?!" the walking bobblehead comically screamed, running after her. "You gotta run! If they come back with their buddies, then you'll be killed on the spot!" he shouted.
"I don't care. I'm gonna find the food? I'm hungry" Rose smiled. "Meshi! ~ Meshi! ~ Meshi! ~ Meshi! ~"
"How can you not care?! There could be hundreds of them for all we know and they're willing to kill anybody!" shouted Coby.
Rosemary wasn't paying attention. Her nose twitched when it caught the most intensifying aroma.
XD
The two pirates noticed the boy and that demon girl were gone, as they grabbed their knocked out comrades and they ran out of the room.
xxxx
Back on deck, again…
As the flamboyant pirates got out from the hatch, they halted when they saw a very agitated Captain Hanson.
"What were you lot doing down there?!" he asked in an angry tone with clenched fists.
"C-C-Captain it's not what you think, we weren't…" said the fat Pirate. "A-a-are you really that upset we didn't you tha-"
"WE HAVE BIGGER THINGS TO WORRY ABOUT!" he roared like an animal and flailed his arms at the sea. The two Pirates shrieked and dropped their unconscious crewmates when they saw they were surrounded on all sides by Marine battleships and were aiming their cannons at them, as the soldiers on each ship lined up, ready to beat the living daylight out of them. Then, the three woke up to see their scared and angry captain. "WHO'S THE PRETTIEST MAN IN ALL THE SEA?!" Hanson shouted with comical fangs.
"You are, sir..." the five Okama yelped timidly.
"And yet you lot have the gall to sleep on the job" the Captain said with venom, to their faces.
"WHAT?!" one crewman cried. "No, never, why would you even think of…"
:D
"DON'T PLAY DUMB!" the Captain shouted, "I COULD HEAR YOU SAY ' I had a great nap!' TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT THE MARINES ALL AROUND US!" The five trannies looked around all bug-eyed at the huge battleships surrounding them. "Now, GET TO WORK ON HELPING ME!" he while crying in despair until he smirked with an epiphany. "Fufufufufu! We still got the hostages; they won't shoot at us with them here.~"
Then, one of the men-ladies remembered the girl.
"W-wait Captain, t-there's a stowaway in the ship" stuttered the man in spandex. "That little demon took us out so easily, she might come after you!"
D:
This aroused the Okama Captain's interest.
"What… a stowaway?" Hanson raised an eyebrow. "Hmp! No doubt another bounty hunter that's after my head. Damn kids, ambious but they they die young."
"But wait," another Okama perked. "There are only two people, outside the Marines, that would dare try and come after you: Makizo the Bounty Hunter and 'Twin Blade' Saito!"
"Don't be stupid!" a third crewmate barked. "Last I heard, Makizo was on the other side of the East Blue a 2 week trip away. As for that Saito bastard, he's either dead or locked up at a Marine base. And besides, that person we saw was a lil' girl."
D:
"But he could have sent a helper or something," the fat pirate suggested. "Even though, he'd have had to escape for that."
"But if he was as powerful as they say" Hanson told them with a serious face. "That could very well have happened. And they say Saito of the 'Twin Blades' is more than capable of doing that."
Don't worry folks I'll try to keep it original as I can. It will get better.
Also I'm open to new ideas for new OC charcters. But no new crew members, I've already planned out who and when, sorry guys.
Btw Hanson will be more like the Buggy of this series.
