A/N: I hope you enjoy this new chapter ^^ Thank you for the faves and follows :D


~Franky~

Kira sat, cross legged, on top of half a broken ship, in the middle of Scrap Island of Water 7. There was a young teenage boy with blue hair looking through the wrecked ships for a small boat he had been building for the majority of the day. Despite sitting out in plain sight, in a light pink kimono, he had yet to spot Kira. He was really focused on the boat. There was also an older teenage boy with purplish blue hair looking through the wrecks but didn't seem to have much interest in the younger teen's project.

Kira began feeling bored of sitting around, waiting for something truly interesting to happen. She got up and jumped down from the broke ship. She walked through the wrecks casually, not really going in any one direction.

"Perhaps I should leave the Grandline." She thought out loud before she mentally started making plans.

"Who are you?" A voice asked suddenly, taking her from her thoughts. She looked in the direction of the voice to see the younger teen with blue hair.

"It is not polite to ask for ones name without first giving your own." Kira said in return with a small smile.

"Franky, who are you talking to?" Came another voice as the older teen walked towards them.

"I don't know who she is."

The older teen looked at Kira, "Hi there, I'm Iceburg." The teen introduced himself, "And that's Cutty Flam but we call him Franky."

"My name is Kira." She said as she looked from Iceburg to Franky, "You two wouldn't happen to know a fishman shipwright who lives on this island? His name is Tom."

"You know Tom?" Iceburg asked.

"Yeah, I've known him for a fair few years now. We're old friends."

"We're his apprentices, I'll take you to him."

"Thank you Iceburg." Kira said with a smile.


~Brook~

Kira sat on some crates at the port as she played a mandolin, a type of lute. She had been given the mandolin by a sailor she had been travelling with, as a fair well gift. He had also given her a few lessons so she was able to play a few songs.

"I haven't seen an instrument like that before."

Kira stopped playing and looked up from the instrument to see two men, one was blonde with two tattoos, one under his right eye and the other under his lower lip, and the other man was taller with a black afro.

"It's called a mandolin and it was a gift from a sailor. He told me that it's from island in the Grand Line." Kira said.

"What's your name?" The blonde asked.

"My oh my, a bit impolite don't you think?" Kira said as she plucked at the mandolin's strings, "Give me your names and I'll give you mine."

The blonde chuckled and answered with a smile, "I'm Captain Yorki of the Rumbar Pirates. And this is Brook, one of my crew."

"Pleasure to meet you." Brook said with a smile.

"My name is Kira."

"Kira?" Yorki said, "Lovely name."

Kira chuckled darkly, "It's a cursed name."

"A cursed name? How can a beautiful young woman have a cursed name?"

Kira couldn't help but smile, "You are being too kind."

"So Kira, do you live here?" Brook asked.

"No, I'm a traveller of sorts."

"A traveller?" Yorki said, interested, "Perhaps you would like to travel with us. We're planning on travelling to the Grand line soon."

"Well, I have been trying to find someone to take me there but tell me, why should I travel with a bunch of pirates?"

"I promise to my last dying breath."

Kira couldn't help but giggle as she brushed a loose strain of hair behind her ear, "Is he like this with all the girls?" She asked Brook.

"Yohohoho~" Brook laughed, "It seems the Captain likes you a lot. He's not usually this charming."

"Oh, so I'm getting special treatment. A girl can definitely learn to love this. Sure, I shall travel with you, and you never know, I might even stay with youse. It's been a very long time since I was a pirate."

Both Yorki and Brook frowned for a moment at the last thing she said but Kira pretended not to notice and just smiled.

"I look forward to travelling with you." She said happily as she began playing the mandolin again.


A/N: This may or may not be the last chapter. I am considering continuing the story, having Kira meet up with everyone again but I am kind of still working on it
