Chapter1-a special but unexpected guest (long title dudes!)
It was the middle of the night and Sanji was the only one up, he was about to go to bed when a loud crash alerted him. He ran out of the kitchen to see a mess on the deck, he walked over cautiously and moved a plank of wood too see a girl around his age unconscious and hardly breathing. He awoke Chopper quickly
"Wha? What's the matter Sanji?" he asked sleepily in his young voice
"There's this... er... oh just come and look for yourself." He stated and pulled him up top where she remained near death, she was wearing what looked like a purple bikini with loose mesh covering her bloody stomach and legs and a long silk-like belt wrapped around the top of her pants. Around her arms and legs were loose shackles like she'd broken out of jail. Around her neck however was a Ruby necklace that shone with a glow of its own. "Oh this looks bad, how did she get here?" he asked as he morphed into his larger form picked her up as carefully as possible then carried her below deck.
"I don't know, I was just about to head off to bed and I think she fell from the sky or something...it was a loud bang. When I looked she was there." He explained
"Interesting." He stated and led her down; she had long blood red hair that was mixed with water and her own blood that was leaking from her left temple she had a soft featured face with elegantly slanted thin eyebrows. She had a slim but strong figure. Down her side was a large gash as if she'd been stabbed then the knife slid down, she had a small cut on her face and a slash up her right leg. Her left arm looked broken and her heart beat was diminishing rapidly. All in all she looked like she'd been tortured
"Can you help her?" he asked
"Does Luffy want to be king of the pirates?" he asked sarcastically as if to say 'of course I can'
"Never mind." He stated
"Anyway what's with you? Normally you'd be all over her, what's got into you?" he asked disinfecting the wounds
"She's hurt...badly, she needs help." He stated
"Go to bed Sanji, I'll work on this, you need sleep." He stated as Sanji yawned
"Are you sure?" he asked
"Positive." Chopped replied and he walked out but not before looking back quickly then heading off. Chopper had worked all night on saving her and he'd fell asleep after the last bandaid was put round her arm then into a cast to support the broken bone. Morning came quickly and Chopper awoke to hear a groan from the girl, he sped out to tell the others, Luffy was first to see who she was... and what happened to her
"Who are you?" he asked and her eyes shot opened and she moved back shocked
"My question is, who are you?" she asked shocked then held her head in pain
"I'm Monkey D. Luffy, but just call me Luffy; I'm the captain of the ship you crashed into last night." He stated
"Oh...what did I do?" she asked confused
"Sanji found you last night, on the deck and hardly alive." He stated simply
"Oh... can you tell him I said thanks?" she asked
"You can tell him yourself." He stated smiling then got up "oh and Chopper is the one that bandaged you all up." He stated and left
"Chopper?" she wondered as a Blonde guy came in, she looked at him with a mix of confusion and pain on her delicate features
"So looks like you're up then?" he asked smiling
"Who are you?" she asked
"I'm the one who found you." He stated
"Oh, well thanks, you could have just left me, but you didn't, I'm very grateful." She smiled thankfully
"You're very welcome; it's always a pleasure to help out a gorges young lady." He stated and she blushed
"I knew it wouldn't last long." Stated a youngish voice next to him, she looked down to see a cute Blue nosed Reindeer with a pink hat that had a small cross in the middle, on its head
"Hey!" he stated
"Who are you?" asked the girl smiling fondly
"I'm Chopper, the Doctor on the ship." He smiled and took off his hat. She sat up and winced but shook it off and ruffled the small Reindeers head fur
"Thanks for the medical Doc." She smiled and he flattened his fur
"You're welcome." He smiled then took out a small bottle filled with a strange coloured liquid "here, I need you to drink this." He stated putting on a spoon and giving it to her she took it willingly and drank it
"Hey, it tastes like Apples." She smiled
"It's so Nami will drink it, she likes fruit." He smirked
"Well I guess me and this Nami person have a lot in common." She smiled and led down. Chopper smiled and left as Sanji sat down
"So what did happen to you?" he asked
"I don't really remember; all that I do remember is in bits and then nuthin until I awoke here." She stated
"What bits do you remember?" he asked
"I ate something, and I passed out, I woke up in a dungeon and...AHHHHH!" she yelped holding her head in pain her bright red eyes clenched shut. A few seconds after they shot open and were completely red "help...me!" she exclaimed like she was in a trance "LET ME OUT OF HERE!" she exclaimed then her eyes dimmed and she fell unconscious
"What the?" he asked as the others darted in to see what the commotion was. He explained what had happened
"Cook-san, I believe I know who she is." Stated Robin clearly
"Who?" he asked
"If I am correct, she would be the only known living member of Gold Rodgers crew." She stated lookin at the red head
"WHAT!?" they all yelled
"Legends say that Gold Rodger had a member of his crew that was only very young but her talents made her the best to have around in a crisis, they say she had blood red hair and bright red eyes that burned a hole into your very soul. She was an amazing pirate, but she ate one of the cursed fruit the most powerful, it was called the ghost ghost fruit, it enabled the consumer abilities of a ghost and the flexibility of one too, many of the navy fell under the spell of beauty that she had, she used her looks to lure in the Navy and attack the unsuspecting vessels. She was known as the one that made him famous, but just before he died she disappeared and was wiped from any records, except the ones I have in the girls cabin." She explained
"So what was her name?" asked Sanji
"Her Pirate name was The Phoenix, but her real name was Nabooru, she was the last remaining of her tribe when the Navy found them, so Gold Rodger took her in as one of his crew." She informed them
"So she ate the ghost ghost fruit? What abilities does she have?" asked Luffy who thought it was very cool
"One for example is the power of healing." Stated a voice behind them, they turned to see her wide awake and looking at them...and fully revitalized
"So you are her?" asked Robin suspiciously
"Yes I am said character. I know now what happened to me so that I landed here." She stated
"How?" asked Nami
"I was captured by the Navy and tortured... I was going to be hung if I didn't tell them the location of One Piece." She explained
"You told them didn't you?" asked Luffy downheartedly
"Hell no! What they tried to pry out of me was just impossible info; I swore on his grave that I'd protect the location of his treasure, and I assure you, it's still there." She smirked and the atmosphere suddenly perked up
"You mean you know the exact whereabouts of One Piece?" asked Zoro shocked
"Yes that's exactly what I'm saying." She stated clearly
"That means you can tell us?" asked Luffy and got a smack round the head from Nami
"She won't tell us you idiot, you heard her, she swore on his grave!" she exclaimed and her tanned features showed amusement...'maybe this crew does have what it takes after all' she thought fondly and smiled at the arguing duo
"Would you like something to eat Nabooru?" asked Sanji
"I would actually, what'cha making?" she asked
"Anything you like." He stated smirking
"Well in that case can I have a Curry and rice please?" she asked politely
"Sure." He stated
"Can I come with you?" she asked
"If you want to." He smiled and she followed him to the kitchen. About 20 minutes later she was eating her favourite meal and it tasted like the best meal she'd ever had
"So can you do a demonstration of your abilities?" asked Sanji and she smiled she touched the table and it turned invisible
"How's that?" she asked smirking then put a fork full of food in her mouth
"That's amazing, what else can you do?" he asked and the water from the sink hovered in mid-air and shaped itself into a mini version of him then walked across the table and bowed to him
"You did that?" he asked as she swallowed the last bit of her food
"Yep, when the fruit gave me the spectral powers... it never said the powers have to stop coming, I'm still learning new stuff" she smirked then they heard a shout
"LAND HOE!!" yelled Ussop then they heard Luffy yell
"WHAT LAND?" he yelled sounding confused
"THAT ONE RIGHT THERE!" and they walked out to see it
"Hey that's Morongo Island!" exclaimed Nabooru smiling
"How do you know?" asked Luffy
"Gold Roger stopped here for a few weeks while on the way to place the last of One piece in the Grand Line." She smiled and looked at the small town situated on the side of a mountain
"He stopped here?" asked Nami
"Yep, for rest." She replied
"Well then if he stopped here, we should to." Stated Luffy
"WHAT?!" yelled Nami shocked
"We stop here." He repeated pointing down
"Are you stupid, we're off shore and still in mid ocean here!" exclaimed Nami and he looked around then spoke up
"Ok, we stop over there." Pointing at the small island and Nabooru chuckled at his idiocy. Nami sighed in defeat and steered the ship towards the small island
"So Nabooru, I heard you were good with a sword...is it true?" asked Zoro
"In my tribe it's customary to know how to use a blade with unbeatable skill." She smirked and unsheathed two long adamantium blades
"Well when we arrive, maybe you'd like to test that unbeatable theory?" he asked
"With pleasure." She smirked as here eyes shone red
"I wouldn't do that if I were you swordsman-san." Stated Robin
"And why not?" he asked
"She's never been beaten. All those who claimed to be unbeatable went up against her; the only one to come out alive was hawk-eye." She stated smartly
"I took pity on him." Stated Nabooru "he seemed to be amazing with a blade, but he lacked agility and his blade was made out of cheep metal." She stated and Zoro fumed
"IT WAS NOT!"
"Yes it was, my blades on the other hand, are made of the strongest of metals, and can never be shattered." She stated showin him the finely crafted blades as the ship docked in the harbor.
"Ok we're splitting up into groups." Stated Nami
"Who's goin with who oh beautiful Nami-swan?" asked Sanji and Nabooru looked at him funnily
"You and Robin will be paired up. Since Zoro and Nabooru are scheduled for a fight then you two are paired up. Luffy and I will be paired so he doesn't get into any trouble and Chopper and Ussop with guard the ship." She stated and they set off in separate directions Zoro and Nabooru went to the shore under a cliff and the others departed into the town
"Are you sure you want to test my abilities?" she asked dangerously
"Positive." He stated and unsheathed his three swords, she did the same with her two and they charged at each other.
