Raro secured the boat to the dock and hopped up, her sister reaching up to her. Raro felt bad for the little girl, her mind was in so much shock that she was reverting back to a small frightened infant. Reaching down Raro easily pulled her small sister up and set her down. Marguerite instantly latched onto Raro like a life line. Raro sighed and pet the small girl's head before turning and discarding the stares some of the dock workers were throwing her. Her focus was getting to the center of the town, to see and have an idea of where she was exactly.
"Let's get moving then..." Raro looked down at Marguerite. "Want...me to carry you?" Raro found it awkward herself to offer such an action, but there was no one around to do it and she didn't want her sister fainting. Marguerite gave a mute nod and Raro wasted no time and set the little girl on her hip. With a slight shift Marguerite wrapped her small arms around Raro's neck and buried her face into her shoulder. With a soft smile Raro walked further into Loguetown.
Raro sat down on a bench in the center with the execution platform in all its glory. . She hummed to herself while Marguerite sat next to her, hugging her knees to her chest, rocking back and forth slowly. Screen after screen slid in and out of her view, her eyes skimming lightly over it.

Raro paused and brought up those two last screens to seem them a dull grey and the words Disconnected fade in and out lightly, almost pulsating. With interest she held her hand over it and lightly traced her fingers across it. The words disappeared and the screen enlarged until it was like a large window screen before her. She blinked and as soon as people walked by, a bubble appeared over their heads. Some were sliver lined with white in the center, others were gold lined with yellow inside and only a few, like a scarce few were maroon outlined with red in the center.
"R..Raro...I'm hungry..." Raro looked away and looked to her sister who turned to her, staring up at her with soft infant eyes. Sighing, Raro nodded.
"Okay then, Mari...just hold on..." Raro looked back then blinked her eyes and focused on a silver bubble. It was a lady sitting on another bench, eating what looked like a box lunch. "Hmmm...I bet she has money..." Raro was against stealing, but if it was willingly given, she could accept it. "Okay lets see this." Raro pressed down on the circle above her head and soon a smaller screen popped up, having the words Enter command on the top. With a grin she used her thoughts, the command typed out before flashing once and the bubble lit up slightly.
Command: Give All Belies to Raro Belleza. A little part of Raro felt a little bad but she had to feed her sister. Not that it justifies stealing at all. She confirmed the command and watched as the lady paused in her eating and looked in her direction. Raro held her gaze and watched as the lady stood up and walked over.
"Koko ni/Here..." Raro blinked at the Japanese before she held her hands out and the lady placed all her bellies that were in pouch in her hand. Raro nodded her head in thanks.
"Arigatō/Thank you..." Raro worded it carefully but easily, seeing she was an anime freak she tends to watch her anime subbed, not dubbed. The lady nodded numbly before walking off. "Hmm...well I guess a language update must be somewhere..." She was joking but the moment she said that a screen popped into her view that had a list of languages and only English and French were highlighted. Blinking. "I was...nevermind..." She mumbled before scrolling through the languages and selected Japanese. "Kore wa migi, dōsa suru yō ni narimashitadeshou ka? Ā sore wa arimasen!/This should work now, right? Oh it does!" Raro gasped as she spoke Japanese as though she had been doing it her whole life.
"You speak Japanese now?!" Marguerite cried out in shock, getting odd stares from people passing by who wondered what she was saying.
"Hai." Raro was blunt before standing and opening her inventory. She held the pouch to the screen and watched as it turned into a 2D image and planted itself flat on the screen. "But I can assure you, I am just as shocked as you are...well now I can get you something to eat."
Raro and Marguerite sat in a restaurant, eating the food that Raro had ordered. Marguerite was pleased with filling her stomach while Raro scanned through miniature screens in her vision. She had gathered 5 more points from using a command for the first time. Looking through the traits she decided to place all 5 points in Aggressive.
Aggressive: +5 points. Strength increase and Feral Will learned. Level Up! Anyone who was watching could see her pupils become only slightly slit, still holding their round shape. She felt her canines give a dull throb and felt with her tongue was they elongated slightly and became more fanged. Blinking slightly she licked over the new fangs as he gums itched only slightly.
"This keeps getting weirder and weirder..." She mumbled and Marguerite looked to her with a tilt of her head.
"Oh yeah, how do you know Japanese now? You could only say those annoying phrases before...and why can't anyone understand me..!" Marguerite whined slightly at the end and Raro moved the screens aside to focus on her little sister.
"Look..." She gestured to where the screens are in her vision. "I can see these screens okay...and they are the reason my eyes are so..weird..maybe, it's a theory.." Raro shrugged lightly. "But what ever is happening...you need to stay by me...Okay? I won't stand for any of your crap like back home got it? If I tell you, going there will kill you...You don't go there. I know this world...it's that 'stupid' anime I always watched remember?" Raro hissed slightly to the end as he bottled away frustration and anger started bubbling, remembering how much of a brat her sister had become after hanging out with spoiled brats most through her school. Raro only approved 3 of all her friends that would be a good influence on her, but Marguerite was more drawn to the others and has started pushing away the 3 she approved of.
"Y...Yes..." Marguerite said submissively. Raro felt only slightly bad for using her intimidation on her, but she needed Marguerite to understand the danger that is the One Piece world. Sighing she nodded and studied her sister carefully. Marguerite's eyes were focused solely on her plate as she slowly ate a fork full after the next at a slow pace. Raro propped her elbow on the table and rest her head in her palm. She blinked her eyes once and a screen appeared having her sister's Traits.

Raro sighed at the low stats and closed her eyes.
"I need to find a way to level you and your stats up..." She hummed to herself, Marguerite focusing only on her food. "Ano/Uhm..." A waiter walked over to their table and Raro smiled politely. "Osoreirimasuga, watashi wa hōan to chīsana bentō-bako ni tsume, nokori o motte iru koto?/Excuse me, but may I have the bill and the rest packed in a small lunch box?" She asked and watched the waiter nod and take her food and her sister's food. With a sigh, Raro tucked one bang behind her and then only noticed the silvery tip. Touching it lightly she noticed it felt like cool metal. Raising her brow she decided to leave it alone for now.
"Hmm...wait..!" Raro's eyes widen as she gasps. "Can...can I change my appearance..?" As if to answer her question a screen popped up in front of her that displayed a 3D model of herself and her clothing had bubbles on the side. "Sugoi/Amazing..." She looked over to the waiter as he placed down the takeaway. She paid him and tipped him before standing, Marguerite following suite. She bowed to him and exited with Marguerite next to her, holding her hand.
Raro walked, Marguerite having relaxed from early and now looking around at the Anime world. Raro was looking to the 3D model of herself and pressed down on the custom button. She hummed a catchy tune as her clothing highlighted. She tilt her head slightly when nothing appeared to show what she could change her appearance to. Sighing, she should have figured, no clothes means no customization. And here she was hopping to have a chance to cosplay. "Would have been cool too if I was dressed as Nami's Sun Shang Xiang DLC outfit from the One Piece: Pirate Warriors game..." Raro grumbled and then she gasped as her 3D model shimmered and her clothes faded, replaced with the exact outfit, tailored to fir her form fittingly. "Okay...this is cool..." With eagerness she was ready to hit the accept button but paused at the last second, realizing she was in public and changing clothes might not go down well with people.
Sighing she saved the outfit for later and when she looked away she bumped into a broad chest. The smell of smoke caught her attention and she stepped back slightly to look up to Captain Smoker. His face pulled into slight annoyance and then he raised a brow. She blinked and above his head the words suspicious blinked in and out.
"Ā, anata ni shōtotsu no tame ni totemo zan'nen/Oh, so sorry for bumping into you..." She mumbled before blinking again. He grunted and walked past her.
"Anata ga okonatte iru basho de kanshō/Watch where you're going..." She watched him go before releasing the breath she was holding.
"Raro...?" Marguerite called up to her sister, who was holding a hand over her chest and blush on her cheeks and a goof smile in place.
"I touched him...!" Raro squealed as softly as she could as she scooped Marguerite up and shook her back and forth. "Kyaaa~..! SO hot...!" She dropped Marguerite down on her stumbling feet. Raro twirled once then twice before fanning herself. "Oh I am going to die...!" She giggled as she fainted back as if in slow mo.
Marguerite just watched the scene with an overly confused and slightly frightened face.
Can't say much is happening in this chapter, just a look into the things Raro can do and such. Hopefully next chapter will begin the storyline. Hopefully.
Leave your thoughts in the reviews~!
Peace.
