Miki's POV-

Soon enough I heard rumors of Luffy coming into town, 'He better have not forgotten what he promised.' I shake my head, there was no way, Luffy always keeps he word. I smile and pack my stuff into a small bag. I keep my guns on me through and leave the small hotel I was staying in.

I take a deep breath before I make my way through the town. I start to get nervous and wonder what his crew will think of me. I walk on to the deck were the ships were but didn't see Luffy there. I sigh, 'He's probably causing trouble in the town.' I turn around and didn't see anyone coming, 'Maybe I should just wait here.'

"Excuse me miss." I turn around to see a tall blond man with a curly eyebrow, "What is a beautiful woman like your self looking so lost for?" He asks bowing and reached for my hand but I quickly pulled away.

"I'm looking for someone." I said, "Who are you anyways?" I ask keeping my distance.

"Oh excuse me for my rude behavior." The blond says bowing again, "My name is Sanji at your service." He says smiling.

"I'm Miki and I was looking for my friend Lu." I start but get cut off by someone yelling behind us.

"Sanji hurry it up! I want to leave as soon as possible!" A woman yells from behind and I turn around to see the woman yelling. She had short orange hair and was standing ask to a man with a long nose and curly black hair.

"Looks like your friends are calling for you." I smile at Sanji and he was about to argue when I cut him off, "Don't worry I'm sure I'll find my friend." I reassure him.

"Sorry I couldn't help." Sanji says running after he's friends, "Coming Nami!" he yells.

'It must be nice to have so many friends.' I smile and turn back to the sea, 'I wonder if I should wait here or go looking in town.' I decide to go back into town to look for Luffy.

I stop in my tracks when I hear a scream, 'It's coming from the sword shop.' I run in the shop to see a green hair man standing with one of his arms out and a sword in the wood flooring.

"You could have cut your arm off!" The woman next to him yelled while fixing her glasses.

"Back off women!" The green hair man snapped and I backed out of the store, 'Scary.' I start walking down the street again looking for Luffy.

I head for the center of town and noticed people were running away with marines yelling for people to leave the center. I run towards some stairs that led to the top of some tall building. I peer over the edge to see marines circling people in and someone was on the execution platform. 'No way…Luffy!?'

I see Luffy about to be executed by some clown guy holding a sword. I pull out my two guns and aim one for the sword he's holding and pull the trigger. It didn't knock the sword out of he's hand but at least he'll be distracted for a while.

The all look towards the top of the building I was on and I put my hair in a pony tie with the hair tie that was on my wrist. I smile as Luffy looks up and gives me a smile.

"To bad." The clown guy says and swings he's sword.

"Sorry guys." Luffy smiles and there's a bright light.

I fall on my back and rub my eyes, 'Did Luffy just…die?' I panic and quickly look over the edge, "Luffy!" I yell and the smoke starts to clear.

I hear laughter and I gasp seeing Luffy stand up and rub the back off he's head, "Look at that I'm not dead!" he cheers from him self and I let out a sigh of relief.

"Sanji! Zoro! Miki! Let's go!" Luffy yells running forward and I smile. I run down the stairs and down the street that connects to Luffy's. 'Wait! Sanji is on Luffy's crew?' I face-palm, 'I could have found Luffy sooner.'

"Miki!" Luffy yells from my side and nearly tackles me as he dodges an attack from a guy with two cigarettes in his mouth. We both fall on the ground with Luffy on top of me and I realize he moved me out-of-the-way of an attack.

"Straw hat!" the white hair guy yells about to punch Luffy in the back and I freeze.

I feel Luffy warp his arms around me one around my waist and the other around my shoulders, "Hold on." Luffy whispers bringing me close to he's chest and rolls us out-of-the-way. I shut my tightly as we roll but then come a sudden stop.

"L-Luffy." I said as he quickly gets up grabbing my hand pulling me up with him, "Thanks." I said a little out of breath.

"Long time no see." Luffy smiles and fixes his hat so it's straight on his head.

"Ya." I smile.

"This is no time to catch up you two." The green hair swords man yells and I nod.

"You three go ahead I'll catch up." Luffy says stepping forward letting go of my hand.

I nod, "Good luck." I say running towards the dock with Sanji and Zoro.

It had already started raining before we even got to the dock. My heart was racing but I was happy to finally be with Luffy again. Sanji led the way to their ship, once there I notice they were already sailing away.

"Sanji! Zoro! Hurry!" The girl from earlier called from the ship. All three of us ran along the side of the sea when Luffy shows up out of no where.

"Let's go!" He yells wrapping he's arm around all three of us and stretches the other one to the ship.

We all crash on to the deck and scramble around to help sail the ship as the lady with orange hair yells out orders. The rain poured down making it hard to get around and the wind wasn't helping.

"Great job everyone!" the woman says and we all collapse on the ground trying to catch are breath.

The man with the long nose stood up first and looked to me, "Who are you?" he asked.

"I'm Miki." I said standing up my legs heavy at first.

"Miki?" he said confused.

"Yep! She's joining are crew!" Luffy yelled jumping up like nothing happened.

"I'll make some tea for the beautiful woman." Sanji said twirling around heading towards what I think is the kitchen.

"That's Sanji are cook." Luffy said pointing at the blond man before he disappeared into the room.

I hear a snore from behind me and turn around, "That's Zoro he was the first one to join my crew." Luffy smiled and then looked to the orange hair woman who was walking down the stairs.

"She's Nami the navigator." Luffy said and Nami waves before heading into the room where Sanji went.

"And lastly this is Usopp the sharp shooter." Luffy said and you already know me." Luffy says pointing at him self.

"I guest I should introduce my self then?" I ask and Luffy nods and calls for the rest of he's crew.

Sanji hands me and cup of Earl Grey tea, "Thanks." I said taking in the aroma of the strong scented tea.

"What should I say?" I ask everyone and Nami is the one to answer.

"Just say you name and I guess a hobby." She smiles.

"Ok. My name is Miki and a hobby I have…" I said and think about it, "I draw and write." I finally say.

"Really? I want to see." Nami says and the others seem to find interested to.

"Ok." I say pulling out my notebook from the small bag I've been carry around, "I'm not very good though." I say opening the notebook as the others gather around me too look.

I turn the pages, the note only had three drawings in them which none of them are not colored. One was of a crow sitting on a branch, then there was a drawing of the tree house Ace and Luffy showed me when we were kids and the last one was of Luffy and Ace before Ace left that day.

"You're amazing." Usopp said watching the paper like a hawk.

"You really are Miki I thought you said they aren't that good." Nami says smiling.

"I didn't think they were. Thanks guys." I smiling feeling at home already.

"Alright guy will be at the Grand Line tomorrow morning." Nami says looking at the sky, "So Sanji why don't you make dinner and Luffy can show Miki around the ship." Nami says.

Everyone agrees and Luffy takes me to the back of the ship, "The ships name is The Going Merry but we call her the Merry for short." Luffy says gliding his hand against the railing.

I sip my tea and nod as Luffy shows me around with a story in between, about how he meets Coby, Zoro, Usopp, Sanji, Mihawk, Going Merry, Nami, Arlong, and Buggy.

"Wow." I say looking up, "King of the pirates." I smile and laugh, "I think you can do it Luffy."

"Of course." Luffy smiles.

"Dinner!" Sanji calls and we both run to the kitchen.

'Let's do this Luffy. I'll help you become pirate king and you'll help me find my dream. I wonder what my dream is?'
