Chapter One: Crash Landing

It was the end of yet another day on the sea of dreams, the Grand Line. Luffy and the gang watched the sun set, with Luffy sitting on his special seat and the rest, Zoro, Sanji, Nami, Chopper, Usopp, and Robin, standing around. As the red gleam faded from the sky and the stars began to show themselves, Luffy sighed and looked around. His precious nakama standing all around him, and who knows what went through his mind. Who could, indeed, predict the crazy captain?

"Alright everyone," he said, standing and facing his crew. "Sanji!"

"Yeah?" said Sanji, although the blonde cook could already guess what was next. So could the rest of the crew; they all dove for cover… except for Zoro who was sleeping as usual.

"I WANT FOOOOOOOOD!!!!"

The cry echoed for a mile around, blowing out the ears of the crew and one pair of ears that was hiding in the twilight… in the sky.

"Okay, I'll go see what I can scrape up," said Sanji, while rubbing his ears.

"Geez Luffy, do you have to do that every time?" Zoro asked irritably. "I was having such a great nap too."

"You sleep too much anyways. Besides, Sanji's going to make a BIIIIG meal with LOTS of MEAT," Luffy informed Zoro.

"I should start charging you every time you blow out our ears like that!" Nami told him.

"No, you have to do what I say, because I'm the captain!"

Two seconds later, Luffy was covered in bruises and quietly apologizing to the mast.

Poor Chopper was laying on the ground, little spirals in his eyes, right next to Usopp. Usopp looked totally fine… he was sitting up and smiling triumphantly. "HA! The great Usopp-sama couldn't be blown away by a trick like that! I can withstand noises so loud, the full sound of an explosion couldn't wake me up!" he informed Chopper, who had amazingly recovered to listen to Usopp with stars in his eyes.

"Oi, isn't that a bad thing?" Nami asked.

Paying her no heed, Usopp continued, "In fact, I can withstand so much sound, people call me… USOPP THE STONE EARED!!"

The crew sweatdropped, except for Chopper who was completely in awe… as per usual…

"Hey you all! Dinner's ready!" called Sanji.

"YAHOO!! FOOD FOOD FOOD FOOD!" yelled Luffy, attempting to run into the kitchen first to steal everyone's shares. Unfortunately for him, Sanji gave him a kick to the face and he slammed headfirst into the mast.

"Moron, you know the rule," Sanji muttered. "Robin-chwan! Nami-swan! Dinner is served!" he called with hearts in his eyes.

"Okay Sanji-kun, coming," Nami called back.

Robin smiled. She had been accepted into the crew pretty quickly, considering that she had stowed away on the ship as the crew sailed away from Arabasta several days ago. She felt that she would never ask anything more if she could just stay on this ship forever, for the rest of her life, with these crazy kids.

Zoro was the last one on the deck, and he was about to go into the kitchen, he got chills and lightning seemed to flare up his spine. He instinctively put his hand on his Maitou blade. Something was coming.

"Oi, Marimo-head, what's wrong?" asked Sanji.

"Something's coming," said Zoro.

Immediately, the crew froze… except for Luffy who was taking advantage of the situation. He stretched out and grabbed everyone's food shares while they all looked out the windows for the threat.

Something whistled down through the air. The sound made the hair on Zoro's nape prickle… whoever this person was, or whatever it was, it was strong.

It fell into the crow's mast with an undignified thud, and lay still. Everybody was tense. This was the Grand Line, sea of impossibilities, so they were all preparing themselves for the worst… except (as per usual) Luffy, who was still chowing down everyone's food besides his own.

Zoro felt something different, and relaxed a bit. He took his hand of the hilt of his blade, and stood up straight. Everyone got out of the kitchen and looked at the crow's nest without speaking.

"So… who wants to see what landed in the crow's nest?" asked Sanji. No one answered.

Usopp surprised everyone by stepping forward. "I, the great Captain Usopp-sama…" he screamed, "…order Zoro to go see what's landed in the crow's nest," he finished, running inside the kitchen and peeking through the window.

"Tch, fine. I'll go I guess, since the Love-Cook here is to afraid to go," said Zoro, flashing an evil smile and Sanji.

"Hold on a second, look who's to scared to go up to the crow's mast to check what's up there, and trying to push it onto the cook!" retorted Sanji.

"Ya wanna fight, Love-Cook?" asked Zoro.

"Bring it on, you Marimo-head," said Sanji.

"I'll go."

Everyone jumped as a pair of arms stretched through the kitchen door and watched as the hands grabbed the edge of the crow's nest. Everyone jumped again as the captain flew after his arms.

"That total moron, rushing in without thinking again," muttered Nami.

"Sencho-san seems to be quite adventurous," Robin murmured to no one in particular.

Zoro noticed something floating down from the crow's nest. He jumped over the ledge to catch it.

"Oi, Marimo-head, what's up?" called Sanji.

"Zoro, what's wrong?" yelled Nami.

"Zoro?" asked Chopper.

Zoro was staring at the thing in his hand. It was pure white, and seemed to weigh nothing at all. It was perfectly shaped, with no flaws, yet it didn't seem like a normal one…

"It's a feather," Zoro called to the crew.

Zoro's train of thought was interrupted by a shot from above.

"There's a girl up here!" Luffy yelled.

"A girl?" asked Sanji. An image that is best not described was forming in his mind. "Is she pretty?" he called.

"Yeah! She's really pretty! But…"

Sanji's mind went into overdrive, but the next thing Luffy yelled down drove that thread of thinking right out of his mind.

"She's got WINGS!!!" Luffy called.

Who is this girl? Why does she have wings? What is her objective? Why did she fall in the crow's mast? How will this change the storyline, and what affect will this have on the rest of the crew? Please review! This is my first fanfic ever, and I want to know what people out there think!!!
