First, I'm pleased to say I can see the reviews now! Thank you all so much! I don't know what happened, but they suddenly let me see them all~ Now I can address people instead of feeling like a bitch because I don't respond to them because I can't see XD So...
waterwolf: Yeah, I've already thought of a couple ideas for this at school just today, so I'm updating. I also had a new idea for a different story, which I'll address later.
Zany Dragon: Thank you! :D
Guest: I love some stories with Nekos, but other times I can't stand them. Usually if they are Mary Sues. And thank you!
ureshiitamago: I love your review! Where do I start...Well, first, I honestly did not know that, I don't check that emial often, because it's connected to my social media, so it's full of "So-in-so commented on whatever' and things like that xD. If technoligy hates me again, I'll check there. Second, I don't really mind the fact not many people have reviewed, I was just miffed I couldn't see the ones that did. I love it when people favorite/follow this though ^.^ Third, I'm gonna check your profile later to see what kinda stories you write. If one seems interesting, I'll read over it. I'll make sure to leave a review too if I do! XD Fourth, thank you! I don't let myself get discouraged very often, it doesn't bother me if people are too lazy to review, they read it, that's what matters. I would like more reviews, obviously, but I'm not going to say 'Give me 30 reviews or I'm not gonna update' or anything like that. Anyways, thanks again~!
Now that replies are over, I wanted you people's opinion on something. I want to make a new story, an 'OC falls into One Piece' story. Cliche, I know, but I already wrote a bit of it while at school and I kinda like it. Please tell me, should I, or should I not?
Angela: if you're gonna use someone other than me, then no.
Emily: Don't be an attention hog Angela, my other OC's deserve their chances too!
Angela:...Ugh. Fine.
Emily: Do the disclaimer o
Angela: *Sighs* Alright.
Disclaimer: Emily don't own nothin! Oda gets all deh glory! All hail Oda!
Emily:... Weirdo. On with the story!
Angela yawned tiredly, having been up most of the night up till now, along with a couple of the Straw Hats: Franky has been checking the engine and making a couple adjustments along with Usopp, and Sanji was prepping some meat for tomorrow, when he would properly cook it. But, finally, they all went to bed too, leaving just her.
She didn't want to sleep in the girl's room, as she had before, because she still felt like, despite them asking her to join, she was intruding. So, instead, she climbed up to the crow's nest before leaning against the wall inside it. She yawned once again, closing her eyes as she slowly slipped into sleep.
When she woke up, the first thing she noticed was the brightness of the light outside, meaning it was at least near midday. She sat up, as she had slipped onto her side sometime in her sleep. That's when the felt a small pain on her chest, which was the second thing she noticed. She looked back down at her bandaged body and sighed, running a hand across it similar to how she had last night. She looked down from the crow's nest when she heard some shouts, and saw Luffy chasing Chopper and Usopp around the deck, but each had grins on their faces, so she figured it was some type of game.
She slowly came down from the nest, climbing down instead of jumping because she was afraid of hurting her chest again. When she got down, she was almost instantly run into by Luffy, making her fall on the ground, catching herself a bit with her hands. She slowly stood back up, seeing luffy already running off, continuing his game of chase. She shook her head slowly, but was smiling to herself at his childlike antics. She walked over to where she saw Nami and Robin stretched out on two lawn chairs, sunning she guessed by their shades and revealing outfits, well, more revealing than normal.
She shyly sat down behind their chairs, not wanting to intrude, and laid on her stomach, her feet kicking in the air slightly as she sat her chin in her hands. The girls, she was sure, had noticed her, but they didn't say anything, most likely not caring, at least she hoped. She watched as Luffy ended up chasing Chopper and usopp into Sanji, who had come out to announce lunch, and make him fall. Sanji immediately jumped up angrily and kicked all three in the head, leaving a shoe print on all three heads.
Zoro got up from his place leaning against the mast and made his way into the galley, ignoring Sanji and the rest as he sat down at the large table. Everyone else slowly assembled inside, minus Angela, who stood at the door, as she hadn't seen an empty seat for her. She was soon noticed, as she was standing in the center of the doorframe, and Luffy yelled to be seated. Nami, realizing her problem, quickly shoved Usopp and Chopper closer to each other, making room for Angela to sit beside her. Angela blushed softly as she came inside and sat down, looking down at the plate which had been filled a moment before by Sanji.
Excited chatter ran easily between the rest of the Straw Hats, but she only silently stared at the table, occasionally taking a bite of food. Sanji looked over at her, noticing her seemingly gloomy presence. "What's wrong, Angela-chan? Do you not like my cooking?" he asked, his voice taking that tone he uses when he 'hasn't pleased the women'. She immediately looked up at him, grinning. "No, not at all Sanji-kun. This is great! Thank you so much for cooking!" She said as she look a bite of the admittedly delicious food. His expression instantaneously brightened as he smiled. "Thank you, Angela-chaaan~!" She nodded politely and focused on the meal once more.
Once everyone was done, besides her, who was still eating the food slowly, they all left to go do their afternoon activities. Sanji, who was cleaning up, noticed her presence and looked over at her. "If you didn't get enough to eat, I can make you some more." He said, noticing her almost empty plate. She looked up at him, having spaced out for a little while there, and shook her head. "I'm full, Sanji-kun. Thanks again! I-if you don't mind..." She said shyly, looking up at him. "...Could I maybe wash the dishes for you? I haven't really done anything yet..." She added. He stared at her for a moment before going into what she was beginning to call 'Love-love Mode', when he talked to himself with the heart eyes. "Oooooh, Angela-chan wants to help me! She must be an angel!" She sweatdropped at him but otherwise ignored it, collecting the plates and sitting them in the sink before beginning to wash them.
She heard Sanji moving around behind her, probably cleaning up the mess the others left. When she was done she dried her hands on a towel, noticing Sanji sitting at the table. she walked over to him and smiled again. "Thank you Sanji-kun, I don't want to just do nothing while here." She said, getting his attention. He grinned in response. "No problem Angela-chan! Would you like me to make you anything right now?"
"Hm...no thank you, Sanji-kun, I'm still full." He nodded at her as she slipped quietly out of the kitchen, going back onto the deck.
The rest of the day passed by rather quickly. Usopp almost blew up half the ship with one of his inventions he was working on, but managed to kick it into the ocean before it exploded. Franky actually did something useful, improving on the cannons a bit as his project for the day. Nami and Robin continued sunbathing until it started getting cloudy, Nami then went to the Orange Trees from Cocoyashi village, her home island, and began tending to them, watering them and such. Robin simply read a book.
Sanji went about the ship, asking the women at random intervals if they would like something to eat, and most of the time he was politely refused by all three. A little while ago he has went to make dinner. Zoro was asleep against the mast, and Luffy was sitting in his special 'Captain's Seat', on top of the lion's head at the front of the ship. Brook and Chopper were off in the infirmary, Chopper cleaning up and Brook to talk to him and keep him company. She had been sitting against the wall mostly, just trying to figure out what she could be to the crew, besides just an extra member.
Sanji, being smart this time, used the intercom to announce dinner was ready, and Luffy immediately jumped up and ran inside, the others following at a slower pace from whatever they were doing. She sat down between Zoro and Sanji this time, as sanji had practically forced her to. Luffy began stuffing his face, sticking whatever meat was closest to him in his mouth. She had to stop his hands a few times from taking the food off her plate, eating quickly so he wouldn't have much time if he tried it. When most of the food was eaten, Nami suggested they tell their 'newest crew member' about their adventures so far. Luffy nodded before beginning to talk, starting from getting Zoro on the crew, Zoro frowning slightly.
The crew spent a lot of time at the table that night, listening to Luffy, and occasionally someone else, talk about the past. she got upset when she heard about Marineford, sitting her chin in her hands and staring at the table, but Luffy didn't seem very upset, going on to talk about going through Fishman Island, and everything else up till now. by the time everyone was done, it was pretty late, and one by one they left the table, going to bed. She stayed behind and helped Sanji clean up again, as she had at lunch, talking to him a bit as she did so.
"Sanji-kun, what should I be on the ship? You're the chef, Brook is the musician, Chopper is the doctor, Nami is the navigator, Robin-san is the archaeologist, Zoro is the swordsman, Usopp is the sharpshooter, Franky is the shipwright, and Luffy is the captain. There isn't much left to do." She said gloomily as she finished cleaning off the table. He looked over at her oddly, thinking for a moment. "Well...you work pretty well with that bow...so...you can be our archer!" He said, nodding. "But isn't that the same thing as a sharpshooter?" She honestly wasn't sure. He shrugged. "Not exactly, I don't think." She nodded slightly.
'Well, at least now I'm not completely useless...' she thought, going back out and leaning on the edge of the ship, looking out at the water. She thought she saw something out in the water, but soon lost sight of whatever it was. She was considering telling someone, but she didn't want to disturb them. She soon saw it again, however, and it was getting larger. Eventually it was right beside the ship, and rose out of the water fully, towering over the ship. She stared up at it in shock, her ears laying flat against her head.
Kekeke, that was my first attempt at a cliffie. How was it? XD It sicked, I bet half the people can already guess what it is. Oh well. Anyways, I'm not certain if Nami still has the orange trees on the Thousand Sunny, but she does here! But I'd still love it if anyone informed me of my mistakes, as I tend not to notice them. What do y'all think about me starting the new story? Yea or nah? owo Let me know please!
