A/N: A few new crewmember that will only appear in this story will join up... then again this is a different crew if you think about it...
Chapter 5: The Trainees
The Merry Go sailed into a port town on Koki Island. It was the closest island to Konegi Isalnd.
"Yay! We're here!" cheered Luffy.
The others stared him and sighed. Luffy noticed something weird… Nami was a beret for some reason.
"With the beret?" asked Luffy.
"Its to hide my ears." said Nami.
"Unlike rabbit boys… girls have it tough…" said Ko with a sigh.
"Oh yeah I forgot…" said Luffy.
Sanji went to get surprised while the others minus Robin who stayed back went to explore the island… however they were being watched. It was 4 girls about 15.
"So that's the Neo-Straw Hats…" said a girl with waist long black hair and deep blue eyes.
"Yep that's them…" said a girl with bright red hair tied into braids and two buns and emerald green eyes, she also wore a green base ball cap.
"I hope things go well…" said a girl with short brown hair and same color eyes.
"Well it should unless Megan blows it…" said a blond girl with waist long curly hair tied with a small pink ribbon in the back and sky blue eyes.
"What was that!" said the black haired girl named Megan.
The two glared at each other and the brown haired girl got in-between them.
"Now, now… can't you two get along for once…" she said.
Megan and the blonde huffed at each other.
"You got the Baby Snail Phone?" said Megan.
The other three nodded, "Let's go… find at least one…" said Megan.
"Who made you leader?" asked the blonde.
"Athena did okay! I'm the oldest!" said Megan.
"Yeah but us three are more reliable…" said the blonde.
"Come on you two…" said the brown haired girl.
Both Megan and the other girl huffed again at each other.
"Okay see you later guys…" said the red harried girl.
"You two…" said the brown haired girl.
And the 4 girls went into different directions.
Not too long later Zoro was walking around town. He noticed some cut throats attacking the red harried girl.
"Look here missy, you better hand over all your money right now or going meet my friend Mr. Stabby…" said one of the pirates taking out his large sword.
The red haired girl began to laugh, "That's the name of your sword… kind of sad Don't ya think… how old are you 5?" laughed the red haired girl with a cocky voice.
"That's it…" said the Pirate.
Zoro instinctively jump in front of the girl and used Oni Giri, shocking the pirates.
"That kids nuts…" said one of the pirates.
They began to run away dragging the guy Zoro attacked along with them. That earned him a sock in the head from the girl.
"Ow what was that for?" asked Zoro.
"You little pip squeak! I could have taken them on!" said the girl.
"Pip Squeak?" yelled Zoro.
"Yeah… you gotta be like 12 or 13 right, I'm 15 so you're a pip squeak to me…" said the girl.
Zoro was getting angry, "That doesn't mean I'm not grateful though… the name Beth…" she said extending her hand to shake his, "Scaring pirates at a young age like that is cool in my book…"
Zoro went to shake her hand "Oh, I'm Zoro…" said Zoro.
"Were you named after the dead infamous swordsman?" asked Beth.
"How did you know?" asked Zoro.
"Just a guess…" said Beth, "You're pretty cool… let's go get lunch my treat… and I'm not taking no for an answer!"
She grabbed his arm and took him to a restaurant. Zoro couldn't help to shake the feeling that this girl was hiding something.
Meanwhile Sanji was looking at some vegetables… they weren't the best vegetables… the bad thing is that there weren't many stands.
"What kind of garbage are you selling…" yelled a voice that belonged to a girl.
Sanji's eyes irrupted in hearts, he saw the blonde girl.
"These prices are terrible…" said the girl.
"I'm so sorry…" said the man running it.
"And you think you can get away with these prices because your close to the port… I happen to know there's better stands on the other side of town, the fruits and vegetables… in fact" said the girl, "Hey everyone there's better stands on the other side of town! They're cheaper and sell better quality goods!" she yelled.
"Thanks for ruining my business kid…" said the man running it.
"Sorry but just because they don't know of the competition doesn't mean you can overcharge…" said the blonde girl.
Sanji ran over to the girl and held her hand.
"Oh my sweet your an angel…" said Sanji.
"I wouldn't say that much…" said the girl.
"Would it be all right to ask for your name?" asked Sanji.
"Amy…" she said with a giggle.
"Ahhhh… Amy… what a lovely name." said Sanji.
"Are you going to ask me out… if you are then I accept I think your ears are cute and I happen to like younger men…" said Amy.
Sanji sweatdroped, it was somehow easy to forget that he was now 13…
Meanwhile Ko was looking around town when she ran into Usopp and Chopper.
"Hey you two… board as heck as well…" said Ko.
Both nodded, "I think it might have to do we don't have the "entertainment" anymore" said Usopp.
(Flashback)
All the Konegi watched Lenny's pants were on fire.
"Stop! Drop! And troll you morn! Stop Drop! And Roll!" yelled Ko.
"How did he catch on fire?" asked Luffy.
"Something about a flame thrower, chewing gum and helmet…" said Zoro.
(End of Flashback)
"Yeah I miss that too…" said Chopper.
"When I'm around you I feel so alive! Like there's lighting going though me… oh yeah!" sang a voice.
All three turned around and saw a huge crowd.
"How did we miss that?" asked Usopp.
"I have no idea…" said Ko.
They managed to push their way though the crowd and found the brown haired girl singing. She finished her song.
"Thank you… thank you… my name is Emily… if there's anyone who can sign come on up... and I mean sing very well."
"I can!" said Ko.
"Okay… we'll have a signing battle its kind of like a rap battle… expect you use pop singing instead…" said Emily.
"Okay I'm ready…" said Ko.
Meanwhile Luffy was happily walking down the street while eating a meat on a bone.
All the while Megan was eating an ice cream cone.
They accidentally bumped into each other.
"Hey you got meat in my ice cream…" said Megan.
"Hey you got ice cream in my meat…" said Luffy.
Both shrugged and took a bite.
"Wow it tastes good…" said Luffy.
"Two great tastes… who would have thought they go together so well…" said Megan.
After eating what they head they went and bought more meat together and then went to an ice cream parlor where they smothered the meat in ice cream.
Meanwhile with Beth and Zoro, they were at a pub just talking.
"So how did you know I was named after Roronoa Zoro?" asked Zoro.
"I'm into history it's one of my two favorite loves… competition and history…" said Beth
"UI still don't trust her…" thought Zoro.
Beth got a weird idea, "I challenge you to an arm wrestling contest!" she challenged.
"What?" asked Zoro with a sweat drop.
"Come on…" said Beth holding out her hand.
Zoro shrugged, even though he wasn't as strong as he was in his past life he was very strong for a 13 year old… it helped that he was also now part of the Gi clan which are abnormally strong.
The two began to arm wrestle, the two seemed pretty matched.
Amy and Sanji walked into the Pub. Amy rolled her eyes, Sanji also saw them, he was about to stop but Amy put her hand in front of him.
"I'm guessing that you brother because the ears… the girl he's arm wrestling with is my sister and my guess is that she's the one who challenged him… she like that…" said Amy, "Let's go watch."
Amy pulled Sanji's arm, and went over to the table, neither competitor noticed them. A huge crowd began to gather. After 10 minutes and with no one winning Amy yelled out "Since this has been going on for more than minutes I make this a draw!"
Both Zoro and Beth glared at the blonde neither giving up.
"Why should we give up Amy?" asked Beth.
"Because… both of you are getting tiered… them roe you continue the more tired you'll get…" said Amy.
"Fine… draw…" said Beth looking at Zoro.
"Fine… you are the one who challenged me after all…" said Zoro.
Both competitors stopped and the crowd disappeared mumbling such things as "A tie that sucks" or "I was hoping the rabbit eared guy would win…"
"So Amy I see you so like younger men after all to think you'd date a 12 year old…" said Beth.
Amy blushed, "What's that supposed to mean?" said Amy.
"Relax… I'm just kidding… he you'll probably going to not go on a 2nd date as he definitely not your type…" said Beth.
Sanji sweatdroped, "She's more into the intellectual types he's definitely not intellectual …" said Beth.
"It's a shame Love Cook…" smirked Zoro getting into the conversation.
"What was that Moss Head?" asked Sanji.
With Ko the signing battle ended…
"Okay for me…" said Emily.
Many people clapped.
"Now for… what was your name again?" asked Emily.
"Ko…" said Ko.
"Ko!" said Emily.
And equal number of people clapped including Usopp and Chopper.
"Well I guess it tie… sorry to say this but the show's over…" said Emily.
The crowd dispersed except for putting money in a bowl that was in front of Emily and Usopp and Chopper.
Emily picked up the bowl and looked inside she gave half the money to Ko.
"Here, you diverse half…" said Emily.
"Thanks…" said Ko.
Emily walked away, she knew that the others were probably hanging out with other Neo Straw Hats so she better not get involved with them… just yet.
Ko looked at her handful of money, "I have the money so what do you want ot do?" she asked her crewmates/ brother.
Both shrugged.
Meanwhile Nami was walking down the street when she passed by Luffy was eating the ice cream soaked meat with Megan. Nami stared at the to two when Luffy noticeted Nami.
"Nami!" said Luffy happily.
Nami looked at the ice cream socked meat with a questionable look, "Luffy… what are you eating?"
"Ice Cream Meat!" said Luffy.
"Luffy bumped into me when I was eating ice cream and we discovered this great new taste…" said Megan who was introduced to Luffy.
"Yeah Nami… you should try some…" said Luffy.
"Maybe later…" said Nami slightly disgusted.
She walked away trying to forget that horrible snack
Meanwhile the 4 were leaving the pub.
"So my blonde goddess where would you like to go?" asked Sanji.
"Who told you!" yelled Amy.
Everyone starred at Amy who coughed comically, "Sorry I wasn't thinking…"
"Wow of all people to nearly blow our cover is you…" Beth whispered to her sister.
Suddenly some glowed in the tow boys pockets. Both took out the think that were glowing… it was the stones that Fate, Destiny and Athena gave them. Both stone glowed and it produced an image of arrow pointing like a compass.
"Looks like one of those objects of legend those girl were talking about are nearby…" said Zoro.
"Oh my lovely sweet I will be right back" said Sanji.
Both fallowed to where the arrow was pointing.
"What are the chances…" said Beth.
"I don't know but let's fallow." said Amy.
The girls fallowed the boys, the arrows disappeared and the boys stopped. The two girls. Sanji's glow stopped while Zoro's stone glowed brighter… something came out the ground and appeared to be made out of lighting. It took the shape of a katana before shrinking into a charm that was gold, it was attached to a necklace… it fell into Zoro's hand as he still had the stone before it shattered.
"… That was weird…" said Sanji.
"No kidding…" said Zoro putting the necklace in his pocket.
"That was so awesome… who would have thought you would get the Mystery Item Today!" yelled Beth.
Zoro glared at the red head, Sanji just stared at her while Amy… "Who said what about blowing our cover…" she said.
"Who are you?" asked Zoro.
"Okay… okay… we'll tell you soon, I'll Megan you call Emily…" said Beth.
"Fine with me…" said Amy.
Both took out their Baby Snail Phones,
Meanwhile Megan was still hanging out with Luffy eating ice cream covered meat, when her Baby Snail phone ran, she picked it up and out came Beth's voice.
"Hey sis, covers blown… if your with someone please bring to them to the ship." said Beth's voice.;
"Okay Beth…" said Megan hanging up her Baby Snail Phone.
She looked towards her eating buddy, "You're a captain of a pirate crew right... can you show me where your ship is?" asked Megan.
"Okay…" said Luffy.
Elsewhere Emily was walking around down when her Baby Snail Phone rang.
"Hello?" asked Emily.
Amy voice came from the other end.
"Hey Emily is me, the one I'm with found out…" said Amy's voice.
"Wow… I'm shocked you blew it?" asked Emily.
"Almost, I'm with Beth she's the one who blew it…" said Amy.
"Oh… IO don't have any with me, I did meet the kid, the blue haired girl and long nosed guy thought." said Emily.
"Okay… see you later…" said Amy.
Emily hung up her Snail Phone and headed towards the ship.
Back with Sanji and Zoro both stared at the girls.
"What's going on?" asked Zoro.
"We'll tell ya soon, alright…" said Beth.
"but you have to wait so we can tell your crew…" said Amy.
Not too long later Usopp, Chopper and Ko made it back to the ship while Nami also got back there holding some shopping bags.
"Have a fun time?" asked Robin looking over her book.
"Well I got in a singing contest with a girl…" said Ko.
"It was draw…" said Usopp, Chopper nodded to this.
"Just shopped, ran into Luffy… he and some girl invented a new snack…. Ice cream covered meat…." said Nami with a sweat drop.
The other 4 had disgusted faces… only Luffy or someone with his hunger for meat can enjoy that…
Emily was the first to arrive… since she was the only unescorted she stood there waiting… then Megan and Luffy showed up… apparently they bought more ice cream and meat but this time they cut up chunks of meat and put it the ice cream…
"Hey Megan… what flavor you eating?" asked Emily.
"Vanilla Meat Chunk…" said Megan.
"It's a flavor we invented…" said Luffy.
Emily looked very disgusted…
"Who is she?" asked Luffy.
"This is my youngest sister Emily" said Megan.
Meanwhile Zoro, Sanji, Beth and Amy were walking back.
"What's going on?" asked Zoro once again.
"Your so annoying, ya know that?" sauid Beth.
"If you'll stop bugging us we'll tell you something, like the 4 us, Beth myself and out two other sisters were supposed to find your crew… don't worry we mean no harm… and I'd hate to hurt Sanji but the only reason why I went on a date with you is because you're the first of you I ran into I accepted but Sorry Sanji you're not my types…" said Amy.
Sanji sighed… shot down again… Zoro just smirked.
They got to the ship not too long after the Emily found out about vanilla meat chunk ice cream.
"So looks like all 4 of us are here…" said Beth.
"Look are you going to tell us now?" asked Zoro.
"We should at least get on board…" said Amy.
"Who are these people?" asked Luffy.
"This is my middle sister… not counting my self Beth…" said Megan.
"Yo…" said Beth.
"And bitchy younger sister though older than Beth and Emily, Amy…" said Megan.
"Oh this coming from an idiot…" said Amy.
"Nani!" yelled Megan.
Megan began to glow sky blue while Amy glowed green.
"Bad very… very bad…" said Beth.
Beth grabbed both Zoro and Sanji's hands while Emily pushed Luffy.
"What's going on?" asked Luffy.
"We need to get on board fast… we'll be out of the cross fire…" said Beth.
They managed to climb on board…
"What's going on?" asked Ko.
"Who are they?" asked Nami noticing Emily and Beth.
"Duck now!" yelled Emily.
Both girls began to suck while the ground shook… it caused the whole island to act if there was an earth quake when the shaking was done a huge mountain of ice and a huge pink flower stood a across from each other... on top of the mountain of ice stood Megan while the flower stood Amy.
"What's going on?" yelled Usopp.
"Great their fighting again…" said Beth.
"I can't stop them when they use full power…" said Emily.
Huge rocks of ice surrounded Megan… they were sharp.
While vines came out of the ground...
"Go!" said both as both vines were headed toward their opponent.
There was an explosion from the dust Athena stood floating.
"It's her again…" said Nami.
"Athena…" said Amy.
"Why did you stop our fight?" said Megan.
"Because you two shouldn't be fighting… you should be helping them Destiny and Fate's screw up…" said Athena angrily.
"That's showing them!" yelled Beth.
"Thank goodness…" said Emily.
The Neo-Straw Hats stared at them… expect for Luffy who still enjoying his meat flavored ice cream.
"Who are you?" asked Nami.
"It about time for formal inductions… Beth, Goddess in training! Training Element: Clouds!"
"And I'm Emily, Goddess in training. Training Element: Lighting" said Emily.
"Hey you should at least wait for us before a proper induction…" said Amy in a huff, "I'm Amy, Goddess in training. Training element: Plants.
"And finally I'm Megan, goddess in training. Training Element: Ice, I'm also the leader of this group…" said Megan.
"You!" yelled Amy.
"Yes me… I am the oldest after all…" said Megan.
Amy narrowed her eyes and shot a vine from her hand aimed it toward her older sister. Megan caught it and froze it.
"What did I just say!" yelled Athena breaking them up once again.
"Sorry Athena…" said Megan with a bow.
"Sorry Athena…" said Amy.
"I forgot to tell you this but these 4 will accompany you on your mission…" said Athena.
"What!" yelled everyone but Luffy.
"Really Megan's joining!" said Luffy.
"That's right…" said Megan with a smile.
Amy ignored her sister, Beth just smirked.
"It's a pleasure to join you on your journey…" said Emily giving a polite bow.
"Well I should get going now… see you soon I hope…" said Athena.
She disappeared though a portal in hurry, probably so she would have to argue.
After and awkward silence Robin said "Well things are going to be interesting…"
Next TIme: Amy expalins the biaci stuff. However can the Neo-Straw Hats get alogn with their new crew member pettally two that get into worse fight than Zoro and Sanji on bad day... find otu next time!
A/N: Interesting fact, I created these 4 girls a long time ago... like back in '01... I tweak them a bit, such as Amy a bit more of a bitch (she was a bitch but less of one), Megan a little bit more weirder (she was just an anime loving ditz), Beth more of a tomboy (dresses and will speak like a boy...) and Emily... well she just has a personally (She not polite and clam... she pretty much lacked a personality in my old sorties). Just thought you out to know...
Also I dare anyone to eat "Ice Cream Coated Meat" or "Vanilla Meat Chunk Ice Cream"
