It was weird.
Now that she thinks about it, it was definitely weird.
During that time, she was off stealing some of that lady pirate Alvida's loot.
It's not like it's one of her most successful heists, but still, the amount of treasure she got from that pirate ship could reach up to four or five million.
Not bad.
At that time, she was thankful that Alvida's crew is a group of brainless, pathetic idiots that are easily to fool. Honestly, could she wish for more? She just dealt with one or two crewmates, and the treasure was already hers!
Unfortunately, there's some part of her that wishes she could've gotten more if she came across them on a different time, on a bigger ship or island. Then maybe, the loot they got from the ship she was from would have been hers as well.
Well, it's not like she's gonna get the spoils. All the money she would have gotten then and there would go straight to her savings to finally purchase her village from Arlong.
But then again, as she continues reminiscing, she couldn't shake off the feeling that it was, indeed, weird.
She remembers that there was some sort of a commotion that caused Alvida's men to stand up and fight. Back then, she reckoned that whoever caused such a stir is someone courageous, to the point that he could stand up to men of that number.
It's not like she cared, anyway.
She actually used that particular moment to go and prepare an escape ship, to get away from that place as quickly and as safely as possible, with all her treasure intact.
She remembers that she was preparing her escape vessel, even making sure that the sails and other necessities are fixed, since she was a navigator.
Then suddenly, another boat, roughly the same size as hers, fell down from the sky. Oh well, not really the sky. But she was busy at that time, so she didn't see where it actually came from.
She might as well be thankful that dinghy didn't land on hers. Right?
The tiny boat that fell from above her landed, thankfully, just on her side.
With all the water splashing around, she still managed to go and have a look at whoever inconsiderate fellow had the guts to do that.
That's when the weird thing happened.
With all the water around her and them, she even caught a glimpse of how the people on it looked like.
Two boys, one facing the other side with her back on her, the other, wearing a very simple type of clothing, clutching his hat and grinning.
He was actually grinning!
Nami found that weird, at that time. He, no, they could've died or something. Yet, it's like he knows what will happen. It's like he knows that they'll land safely and would manage to get away from that place.
And then he turned his head. Nami found herself meeting his onyx eyes with her own maroon orbs, which made her feel even weirder.
But then again, as she evokes about it, perhaps those things weren't that weird.
Because what's weirdest of all was the fact that their eyes actually met.
But they didn't.
At least, not yet.

A/N: Oh yea. Just thought I'd say this. I've been getting emails saying people actually added this story to their favorites and alerts. I thank you for that, however… reviews bring me a lot more joy.
Shoot, another LuNa. I'll be damned one day.
