The Rebellious Girl

Robin found herself examining the place, she was clearly in the central part of town, it looked like a plaza, it had a similar design to a town she once saw on one of her history books, if she was not mistaken it was Loguetown she was thinking about, she remembered it because it was the place where the Pirate King was born and also executed.

It looked like the architectural design was almost identical, the only thing it was missing was the enormous execution platform.

But there was something that had been bothering her for a while now, the town was deserted, it didn't look like it was a ghost town, the town wasn't abandoned, there were people living there, so why was she all alone in what should be towns busiest part?

She decided she should explore the town some more there was obviously something wrong.

While she was walking around one the streets she found a sign.

"Welcome to Murausa" she read out loud.

Luffy was left with a confused look on his face but the person with him didn't seem to care and continued.

"You know you shouldn't be walking around, not at this time of day!"

Luffy could tell from her voice that it was obviously a girl who had dragged him around to the alley, her entire body was covered in a mantle so he couldn't tell if she was a girl or not until now, but from her face he could tell that she wasn't older than him, she was however looking really mad at him for some reason.

"Please don't tell me you're some kind of dumb kid who's looking to become a hero!" before he could even say a word she continued with her one way dialogue. "I have never seen you around here before... From what part of town are you?"

Then she was interrupted, by one of the guards.

"You can't outrun me! Now I'd arrest you but the two of you managed to get on my nerves." after saying this the guard pointed his gun at the girl and pulled the trigger without hesitating.

She saw the young boy she had just rescued jump in front of the bullet and take it in the chest.

"No!!" she screamed in despair "Not... Not again..." and then tears started to slide down her cheeks and on to the floor.

But what happened next left her in shock, the young boy started stretching, the area where he was shot stretched back and repelled the bullet back to the shooter.

"Ah that scared me!" she heard the impossibly still alive boy say " Though I think you should know, bullets don't work on me haha." said the boy with a big grin on his face.

And just like before he stretched again, but this time it was his arms that stretched.

"Gomu gomu no... Bazooka!"

In a matter of seconds she saw the guard disappear as he was propelled towards the sky.

"Geez, what was wrong with that guy." he said.

She couldn't believe what she just saw.

"Wh-who or what are you?" she asked in disbelief.

"Like I said, I'm Luffy a rubber man." he answered sounding really proud while he stretched his mouth.

As if it suddenly hit her she got up and walked over towards the Luffy.

"A-anyways we need to get inside." she said, then she took him by his hand and started running.

"Murausa..." she said again, it was a strange name, but it sounded familiar in some strange way.

Robin then decided to continue exploring town, and after a while walking through a few deserted streets she heard a voice calling out to her.

"Oi Robin-chwan! Over here!!" Robin turned around and saw Sanji jumping around and the rest of the crew standing there.

She walked over to them and directed her attention to Nami while listening to what was going on, Chopper was trying to calm Usopp down who seemed to be panicking over the fact that they hadn't seen a single person since they arrived, Zoro was looking lost, maybe he didn't even know how he was able of finding the group, Brook was drinking his tea and making death jokes to Zoro who seemed even more disoriented due to that. And Nami was looking serious and scared.

"What seems to be the problem navigator-san?" she asked.

A look of relief washed over her face when she saw Robin.

"Thank god I found you Robin you are the only one capable of realizing the seriousness of the situation we're in" as she said this Usopp made a protest noise "I mean I know this place would be in a bad situation but this is too much, there's not a single living soul out here!"

"It appears that wa-..." before she could answer completely she saw the young captain walk bout holding hands with a young girl, and was taken aback even though she knew that it was highly improbable that it had any significance.

"Hm? What's the matter Robin?" Nami asked concerned after seeing the look on the face of her friend turn into one of shock.

"Oh nothing, I just saw the captain run past that small street, maybe we should follow him, if we are to leave we must first consult with the captain don't yo think?" she suggested once she regained her composure.

"Yeah, after all we can't leave without him." she said calmly, but the her face turned to one of anxiety. "I just hope he didn't d anything stupid!"

The others agreed that they should first meet up with the captain and they all started walking in the direction Luffy had just run by.

While she was walking Robin started thinking about how she was easily affected by any matter that involved the young captain no matter how small or insignificant the young captains actions were she found herself with her heart racing or with her body going numb. And she also noted that she was easily disturbed when there was a chance (even if it was so small only she would consider it a chance) that Luffy might be with someone else.

After a few minutes running they came to a stop in front of a small house in what seemed to be a poor part of the town. Luffy had no idea where they were but he was sure this wasn't the best neighborhood, it looked like a small alley like the one in Loguetown where the bar GOLD ROGER was located. The young woman then started pounding on the door in a strange manner.

But before anyone answered Zoro and the rest of the group appeared next them.

Luffy didn't really reacted in any strange way giving only a friendly "Yo"

But the girl next to him pulled back as if caught by surprise and reached for a katana hidden under the mantle she was wearing.

Zoro reacted in equal and reached for his sword, it seemed like a fight was about to start but they were interrupted by the door that the young girl had just been pounding on.

The door opened and revealed an older woman around her thirties, she was thin and had long brown hair that was tied into a ponytail, she was a pale and had green eyes. The older woman was wearing a red t-shirt and a long cream colored skirt.

Everyone seemed to have been thrown into confusion, Zoro and the girl were still holding their swords and everyone else was just looking confused, but before they could understand what happened the woman ran past them and hugged the younger girl.

"Mikoto! Thank God you're okay!"

"M-mom! Get inside!" she said with a growl with her eyes still on Zoro which hadn't put his sword away.

"Haha Zoro put the sword away she's not a bad person." Luffy said with his usual grin on his face.

And with that Zoro trusted his captain and lowered his sword.

The young woman seemed to be confused with what was happened, while the older woman was smiling just happy to see her.

After a small pause of awkwardness Nami intervened.

"Hm... Luffy who are these people?" she said hoping to make sense of what was happening.

"I don't know." he answered like nothing had happened.

"Oh? And what were you doing holding that young girls hand I might ask?" Robin made a small remark that sounded rather aggressive, not that anyone noticed as they weren't paying much attention to the conversation, everyone was still looking carefully at the two strangers in front of them.

"Hm? Oh she grabbed me by the hand and brought me here, though I don't know why." he answered like always, with a big grin plastered all over his face.

"Luffy, are those your friends?" the young girl asked.

"Yeah this is-..." but he was cut off by the gril who was clearly in a hurry.

"We'll do introductions inside!" and she started pushing them inside the house.

Once they were inside the young girl removed her mantle.

She had short black hair, her skin was pale almost like snow and her eyes were fiery red. She was wearing a baby blue tank top and had a bracelet on her left arm, she was also wearing yellow shorts with black stripes on the sides.

It didn't take long before Sanji stepped in.

"Oh a house with such beauty, who would've thought that there would be such beautiful women living in here!" he was clearly trying to flirt with both mother and daughter.

"Shut up love cook." Zoro stepped in which was something everyone thanked for.

"Hm... Okay..." The young girl said seeming a little confused " I'm Mikoto and this is my mom Aruka, so who exactly are you?"

After the very long introductions Nami went straight to the point.

"Why is the town like this? And why did you want us to go inside so much?" Nami took a small pause and then continued "It's like it was dangerous to stay outside."

"I guess you really aren't from Sathir..." Mikoto said with a sad look on her face "Sathir has been in a delicate situation for a long time now, but it's not like you can understand I don't want people like you to get involved in our matters, just do what you came here to do fast and leave while you still can."

"While we still can?" Nami seemed to take that as a threat but soon realized it was a warning.

"Yes, any ship that stays here long enough and is seen by the guards is taken and destroyed." Aruka stepped in while carrying plates with some food for the guests.

"Why is that?" Robin asked.

"Well..." Aruka was about to start explaining the situation but Mikoto put a stop to it.

"Mom! Listen I'm sure you're all good people and are capable of taking a few blows like Luffy..." she looked down and then back up. "But you're not dealing with something simple here, please just leave!"

Everyone was surprised at the girl's outburst but Luffy was looking at her with an apathetic face.

"I'm not sure I got what's going on, but I don't want to leave!"

"Luffy! Let's just listen to the-" but she was cut off by Zoro and Robin.

"Well if the captain says that I guess we're settled then." Said Zoro while he sat down.

"If that is what you wish for..." Robin said in a sweet tone while looking out the window.

"O-oi Luffy, this is serious maybe we should follow their advice!" Usopp said shaking all over the place.

"Nope. I'm staying!" and with that Luffy continued eating.

"You..." Mikoto started running and dashed outside.. "If you want to get yourself killed then fine!!"

"What was that about?" Sanji asked Aruka looking confused.

"I guess you need to know the story behind Sathir to understand why she acts like that." Aruka took a pause and then continued. " It all started 18 years ago, one year before Mikoto was born..."
