Project Chimera

in a laboratory beneath the waters of the grand line there was a room with a coffin shaped pod filled with sea water inside the pod was a girl, with black hair wearing a white long sleeve shirt and pants a respirator in her mouth to keep her alive.

outside the pod a scientist walked into the room flanked by two marines the scientist scoffed at the girl,, before looking to one of the marines.

"Drain the pod" the doctor said , and the marine nodded pulling a lever on the side an alarm blared as the water drained out the pod opened.

the girl sleepily opened her violet eyes the marine then grabbed her dragging her outthe girl glared at the scientist the man laughed at her "I see you still have that defiant spirit" he said, grinning sadistically.

"we'll break you of it soon enough" he said,the girl was dragged into another room put into a chair a marine took a fruit out of the chest.

"eat it" the scientist ordered, the girl glared at them before the marine grabbed her head forcing it back over the chair prying the mouth open and stuffing the fruit into her throat, forcing her to swallow the fruit.

the girl gagged trying in vain to spit out the fruit while the scientist grinned

"congratulations you've just eaten the blood blood fruit making you a blood bending 'human' project chimera" the scientist sneered, at her "now to test what your powers are capable of".

Their she changed into a gi and waited on a mat some low ranking marines were, their she then tried to use her Blood Blood fruit tried it it did'nt work.

she then threw a punch the marine blocked, a second marine grabbed her from behind throwing her to the floor began beating her to a pulp.

They stoped and left the scientist as look of disappointment on his face, "unacceptable you were engineered to be ultimate marine and you've made no progress in two years project chimera".

the scientist snapped his fingers a doctor walked in kneeling by project chimera's side "treat it's wounds then throw it back into it's pod", the doctor nodded letting her use her shoulder to take her to the infirmary.

" you can do better Kikue" the doctor told the girl using the name she had given her when she was young, "with your training you could have beaten both of them with one hand behind your back".

Kikue nodded with a grin "if I did I wouldn't get to spend time with you" the doctor rolled her eyes taking her to the infirmary, her wounds steamed as they began to heal watching this the doctor grinned.

Kikue or as she was better known project chimera was back in her pod when the doctor came in opening the pod, Kikue's eyes open "what's going on" Kikue stepped out of the pod handing her a folded up marine uniform "put those on".

"what's going on" Kikue asked, when she finished putting on the uniform "the government thinks you aren't making enough progress they plan to kill you and start over" the doctor hugged Kikue"a marine ship will stop here for the entrance use it to escape and make your dreams come true" Kikue nodded running through the lab.

Kikue pulled her hat over her face as she walked through the marine ship it had been two days since she had escaped the lab, the marines had been alerted to search for her and return her to the lab dead or alive emphasis on dead.

"All hands on deck" a marine shouted Kikue followed with the other marines lining up behind the officer in charge of the ship a man with scars on his face and neck, named Doberman he turned to face the gathered marines.

"men as you know one of our classified experiments project chimera has escaped her prison" Doberman said, "Project Chimera may appear to be human but is anything but using the dna we harvested from a woman pirate and the pirate Blackbeard we were able to create the ultimate human weapon a marine sleeper agent who could wield multiple devil fruits".

Kikue's eyes widened all she knew was the laboratory but she had always thought that she was abducted as a baby but she wasn't even human, she was what did he call her a clone a copy of someone named Blackbeard.

the name Blackbeard sounded familiar but she couldn't place it, was it something the guards spoke of when they thought she was asleep in the infirmary.

she was pulled out of her thoughts when she saw Doberman point to a ship in the distance, "and in the name of absolute justice we shall reclaim it from those who stole the world governments property".

a marine stepped forward with a telescope "but vice admiral sir that's a ship belonging to the White tiger clan a group of bounty hunters who are allies with us why would th-the, marine gasped as Doberman slashed him across the stomach with a katana he fell over holding his chest as he began to bleed out .on

the deck others moved to help him but Doberman held up his sword"No one help him he is a traitor to the marines now prepare the cannons", Kikue stepped from the crowd.

she said ,"that's enough" Kikue pulled her hat off her head letting her hat fall off and her hair fly free Doberman smirked"so that's how you escaped disguising yourself as a deliverer of absolute justice".

Kikue growled "what you've done isn't justice it was an execution you cut down one of your own men and were going to sink a ship without any proof I was aboard", Kikue held up her arm through a small hole in the center of her wrist blood flew out forming a sword .

Kikue concentrated the blood froze in the air morphing into a one handed long sword

"the way I see it Vice Admiral" she said, with as much disdain and hatred she could pull up for Dobermans rank "Absolute Justice becomes Absolute Tyranny when you threaten your allies and subordinates" Doberman drew his sword.

Kikue noticed the sword had turned black "I don't have to explain myself to a lab rat who thinks it's human" he said, Doberman ran forward Kikue swung her sword blocking the slash Kikue grit her teeth .

parrying the attack pushing her way under Dobermans arms she slashed him along the stomach "red fang" Kikue said, testing the new name of her attack "I'll go with that".

Doberman hit her in the nose with the butt of his sword "pay attention to your enemy in battle you disgusting lab rat" Kikue growled slashing at Doberman, their swords met again and they broke away circling each other like animals.

looking for a moment of weakness to attack Doberman briefly looked up, from the mast he could see a flash of light and he grinned 'the moment I give the signal my hidden sniper will put a bullet through her head when I return the body Fleet admiral Sakazuki, will reward me handsomely' he thought.

Doberman flew forward swinging wildly Kikue blocked and parried each of his attacks responding with her own Kikue pivoted her foot sending a round kick towards his ribs, Doberman blocked by grabbing her foot with his hand Kikue grinned leaping up with her other foot she pivoted through the air kicking Doberman in the face.

following it with a shallow cut to the neck Kikue landed with a grin, 'I'll have to work on that one' she thought Doberman stood up a new cut that would likely scar on his neck

"you win project Chimera" Doberman hung his head, as he sheathed his sword "a marine surrenders with dignity name your demands".

Kikue stood up when a bullet tore into her shoulder Doberman laughed holding the smoke flintlock in his other hand he said, "Absolute Justice always prevails" he shouts aiming to shoot her in the head.

when a shot rings through the air Doberman drops his gun moving his hands to the hole in his neck a bullseye between the corrata arteries, he fell to his knees "damn you Carmen" he whispered before he fell dead.

Kikue pushed herself up her sword had turned back into blood when Doberman shot her, but maybe she could fix her injuries and that man's she walked over to the marine the man who must've held on by will power alone.

Kikue knelt by his side putting her hand into his wound she concentrated she felt a pull in the back of her head, his blood spasmed on the deck before it flew back into his body the wound steaming as it began to heal until it was little more then a scratch.

Kikue pulled her hand away her head felt like it had been hit in the head by a fishman with a sledgehammer, something she knew from experience hurt a lot.

"I didn't expect you to heal him" a woman said, Kikue looked up to see a beautiful woman walk towards her she held up a hand "yo names Carmen" Carmen has long black hair with a silver eye the other's covered with a worn out eye patch.

she's wearing a white jacket over a black shirt, bandoliers of bullets across her chest a grey skirt with ankle high boots her rifle strapped over her back.

"your the one who shot Doberman" Kikue said, Carmen shrugged "he wanted me to do it to you but I liked what you said, so I put Doberman down with a little shot to the neck" Kikue frowned "that's a really morbid pun".

Carmen shrugged "well project chimera you might be stuck with them for awhile since I shot a marine officer I'm now a criminal in the same boat as you heh heh", Kikue frowned "I think the morbid one was better".

Carmen shrugged again looking to her former allies, "your going to drop us off at the nearest island I think it's Sabody you will not tell anyone you saw project chimera you can say I shot Doberman and am a traitor to the marines you got that guys".

the marines all nodded rushing to set sail for the Sabody Archipelago Carmen held out a hand to Kikue, "so want to keep me around I mean not to hold it over your head or anything captain but I am the one who saved your life" Kikue held out her hand "ok but my name's Kikue not project Chimera you got that".

Carmen nodded. "Captain Kikue" Carmen says, "it's got a nice ring to it"

'so this is who I am who I will become I'm not project Chimera I'm Kikue I'm a pirate.
