And I was running far away
Would I run off the world someday?
Nobody knows, nobody knows
And I was dancing in the rain
I felt alive and I can't complain
But now take me home
Take me home where I belong

000.| ARIELLE REMEMBERS THE STORY, SHE REMEMBERED HOW HER MOTHER AND FATHER TOLD HER HOW THEY STOOD IN THE CROWD, WATCHING THE EXECUTION OF GOLD ROGER. HOW THEY WENT ON BOARD AND STARTED TO SAIL ACROSS THE OCEAN TO FIND HIS MYSTERIOUS TREASURE, THE ONE PIECE.

The stories that Arielle was told from her mother, the songs she sang to her and her sisters. There was not one story that she did not listen to intently of the stories of her mother and fathers adventures when she lived on her island, the days of sunlight, laughter and helping the residents of her island was nothing but a golden memory to Arielle, as the good days couldnt stay forever.

☾𓇼࿐𑁍ᨒ༄🐚༄ ᨒ𑁍࿐𓇼☽

On the oceans of the East Blue, in the present day. The ocean's surface was calm, just like how Arielle Lebeauchenea wished she could have that effect on her pounding heart. The girl with tawny skin tone sunkissed as the brutal heat of the late morning day was making it almost harder to concentrate on sailing her raft properly.

Leaving a few days ago on her raft, maybe it was a mistake but Arielle didn't want to go back. Not after so far in planning and it was her first step to take, she had taken one of the rafts that were part of the new island she was forced to call her home along with some food (which was almost finished) and some supplies. It's not that she hated the island or the people that lived in it, no it was a beautiful place and the people were very kind and welcoming, but it couldn't replace the home she grew up in; all the memories she made with her mom, sisters and friends on Azura Tethys.

She gently swept a few strays of her bright red hair locs out of her face, luckily her outfit was fit for her to swim if she needed to do so and it allowed to take on the heat.

"Okay, okay. I just need to think what direction to go", Arielle muttered softly to herself, taking out the map that resided in her bag of the whole East Blue, finding where she could sail towards next, so maybe she could at least get some more food, she had a bag of 100 berries on her, not much but could find a way to earn more as a musician and dancer.

Her sapphire blue eyes scanning the brown paper elegantly drawn with landscapes and islands around her, along with the ocean.

Unfortunately as she attempted to concentrate, she started to hear a loud bang. The red haired girl shot her head up, the sounds bring back a terrible familiar feeling of years ago. One became two, two become three, the numbers only increased as she got closer.

Looking in the distance, she noticed a large ship in front of her that was attacking a ship smaller than it's size. The front was decorated as a swan head and the ship itself was not so elegantly painted pink, the two main sails on the ship were white with a big red heart painted on it.

As a canon ball aimed towards the other ship, she sighed, "For a boat with hearts on the sales, they sure like to pick on someone smaller than them", she muttered to herself.

Commands of fire and while the ship was being blown to splinters, Arielle thought this was a good idea to at least get herself closer to Alvida's ship. Maybe sneaking onto it, without getting caught would help her in some way, maybe she could get to land.

Using the commotion as the pirates were distracted, Arielle was sailing forward to the pink pirates ship. Unfortunately being too close to the scene itself, the red haired girl realized she did not really think further in her plan as a canon ball was close to her, she unintentionally landed too close to the battlefield.

She let out a yelp, she covered her head with her arms instinctively but luckily she did not take a hit from the canon, but water did splash quite harshly in her direction.

"Captain Alvida! We found a sailor, she looks like she could have some treasure on her!", one the pirates of the ship called out to his captain.

The woman of the name "Alvida", called out to her faithful crew mate, "Bring her in!", she roughly commanded as she continued commanding her other men to take the treasure and kill the other men on the ship they continued to relentlessly attack.

Arielle thought the name sounded familiar, but she couldn't have herself wait to figure it out. She had to think quickly, having no choice she had to turn her sails back.

"Oh no no", the girl with red hair muttered to herself, using all her might and strength to turn the course of her boat.

"Leave the crew to me! Let's show 'em what true terror looks like", as Alvida commanded the pirates of her ship, Arielle was sailing away from the boats of Alvida's ship, but during the trials of her focus a gunshot was heard and she almost jumped in terror.

"Get her on the ship! Let's see what treasure she has!", one of the pirates of high ranking on Alvida's ship barked orders to the other pirates, especially a frail looking man with pink hair and glasses, who looked fearful and regretful of the choices he was making today.

Arielle did not have time to waste, she didn't even have any treasure to give them so this time, if she was lucky they would let her go. Unfortunately for her, it was too late.

As the pirates of Alvida's crew, as well as the terrible woman herself grabbed onto the ropes of their sails and started to swing forward, some of the pirates landed on Arielle's boat as they landed on the boats of the other pirates they were attacking.

Two pirates of the Alvida ship with large builds landed on Arielle's boat, due to the impact and weight force, this caused Arielle to fall back. Having no choice but to fight, she grabbed the hilt of her golden sword that was held securely on the belt that wrapped around her waist.

The two male pirates laughed as they stared tauntingly at the girl with red hair but she did not back down.

"Yes little girl. Try fight us, come at us", one of them cruelly smirked, holding his sword out at her along with his crew member.

One the silent one attacked Arielle first, she made her move next, the golden metal of her sword clashed against the swords of the other two pirates. The two males fought against Arielle on her small boat, the girl with red hair showed strength that the male pirates were struggling against.

Arielle's feet did their best to keep their balance on her small boat as the two male pirates, were overwhelming her with their large body sizes but she wouldn't give up. Their eyes showed they didn't have good intentions with her, that their captain had no kindness nor good intentions either. She had to escape, but escape would soon cross off as an option as time passed and she surrendered, as she was cornered and could not fight further, but maybe she could fight later and find an escape.

Keeping her golden dagger hidden and surrendering her sword to the Alvida pirates, the pirates named Poppoko and Heppoko both roughly gripped onto Arielle's arms as they forcefully dragged her onto the Alvida Pirates ship.

The other ship already became a show of entertainment and a bloodbath as the rest of the nasty woman's pirates cheered as the woman wearing pink and black swung her spiky ironclad weapon to those unfortunate enough to go against her. It made Arielle sick to her stomach as she watched the scene unfold; she knew a lot of pirates were dangerous but some were truly more heartless than others.

☾𓇼࿐𑁍ᨒ༄🐚༄ ᨒ𑁍࿐𓇼☽

Hours later as the day passed and Alvida finished terrorizing the other ship and held some hostages on board, she was guarded by two crew members of the Alvida pirates while her knees were on the ground and her hands were tied behind her back, but unfortunately no matter how hard she tried at the moment, she couldn't currently undo the ropes, not now.

The crew members of the ship were bringing in goods while Alvida was interrogating three men on her ship, who were on their knees and their heads down.

"Where is the pirate hunter Roronoa Zoro?", she asked, her deep voice seething with venom as her hands gripped on a spiky weapon. "Don't deny he was on your ship", she warned them, demonstrating her little ounce of patience.

A man with a wispy long beard answered her question, fearful of his fate. "He booked a passage to Sixis Island. After that, I don't know", he answered her.

The name, the title of pirate hunter. It all sounded very familiar to Arielle. She heard it once, if she was not wrong she heard maybe one of her sisters talking about the name.

"Liar! I know Zoro must be after me. Who else is worthy of his pursuit?", The nasty woman snarled, her dark colored eyes showing she truly held no kindness as they stared down into the frightened man's soul.

"How much is your bounty worth?", Arielle asked so suddenly. Her bold question caught the attention of Alvida and her crew all around her.

The woman with dark hair and a large built body turned her attention away from the sailors as she started to walk towards the girl her crew mates captured earlier, only retrieving a sword and a few berries in return. The woman with a nasty attitude let out a laugh, bending down to her knees

"What question did you ask my dear? Sorry, I didn't hear", she asked, her voice oozing a false honey sweet tone as the space between them taunted Arielle.

The voyager girl didn't budge however, "If your bounty is worth a lot, the man you name Roronoa Zoro, would come after you someway or another. Just tell me how much you're worth, and your name please", the young girl asked only politely in return, a smile crossing her lips as she displayed a friendly attitude.

Alvida couldn't decide if this girl was daring enough to mock her or if she was just this dumb, it was quite amusing she had to admit. She stood up, "Everyone, let's leave this girl a friendly reminder. Everyone, who is the strongest and most powerful pirate on the seas?", she asked her crew members.

"Captain Alvida!", they chanted in return, cheering for their captains name.

Alvida turned her head back to the man whom she was interrogating, "Now answer me. Was my name on the list of bounties?", she asked him.

He shook his head timidly, "No. Your name wasn't even on it", he answered honestly.

Suddenly the name hit Arielle, Captain Alvida of the Alvida pirates. She remembered seeing a poster of her bounty in her sister, Davina's office. She wasn't a top bounty hunted pirate but she was worth quite a lot for small times.

Unfortunately, Alvida's rage had reached an unpleasant sighting and she swung her spiky weapon at the man.

Arielle's eyes widened at the sight, Alvida's brutality and rage combined with her immaturity and behavior of a spoiled brat. Those woman's eyes burned with fury and ambition but her heart held no kindness and love. The girl with red hair would say that the sight was horrid and bloody, which it was, but she had seen horrors much worse but her heart ached for that innocent man.

"Koby clean up this mess!", the dark haired woman ordered.

"Coming Captain Alvida!", a boy answered, his tone shaking and cracking with fear if he didn't listen to the horrid woman's orders; walking forward with a mop and bucket while two of Alvida's henchmen started to drag the dead bodies of the men she interrogated and killed in the act of her own rage.

"Who's the most powerful pirate of the seas?", Alvida asked all of the pirates of her crew. The pirates chanted and cheered her name in return while she basked in their false praises and glory she forced them to call her.

Arielle's silence was louder, she was too angry at Captain Alvida and her brutality. She had heard stories of pirates being heartless and she had met them, but this was beyond heartless in her eyes.

Alvida's eyes turned towards the silent girl, a snarl left her plump lips while her hateful gaze narrowed at the younger woman. "Well, dear. I'm sorry, I didn't hear you", her voice was softer, taunting her as she walked towards Arielle; kneeling at her level as her dark hues looked into Arielle's oceanic blue eyes.

The girl with red hair was silent, her lips drawn in a thin line as her oceanic blue gaze stared at Alvida with hatred, but she looked in the boy with pink haired eyes.

One look, all she could tell is that he was a good person but he was scared, frightened of the nasty pirate woman named Alvida. He was absolutely frightened for the girl with red hair and what could happen to her. Arielle didn't understand why, she couldn't understand how he was working with a woman this horrid but she couldn't judge just yet, she probably needed to hear his story first.

Putting her pride aside, Arielle decided to play along for now. She could fight back a bit later when she had another plan, "Captain Alvida", her voice was low, but it was still audible to the barbarous Captain.

The woman's lips smirked slightly, "I'm sorry, what was that dear?", Alvida asked, taunting her once again. Arielle was nearly close to shouting at her such unforgivable words but she had to be calm. It's a lesson she took from her sisters when she was captured by pirates.

"Captain Alvida!", she answered a bit louder, trying her hardest to add the enthusiasm she had left but there was barely anything.

The captain showing adequate satisfaction with Arielle's words, her face was stuck in a snarl. "Be careful with who you mess with dear, if you're lucky enough and I let you live, I'll let you be a part of my crew", she warned Arielle, her voice coated in venom as she spoke softly to Arielle; before standing up and leaving her, continuing her work as captain on the ship as she barked orders to her crew and to the man named "Koby".

Inside Arielle's mind, she was seething, burning with anger as her eyes turned coldly to the floor. She had to find a way to escape and how to fight off Captain Alvida and her crew, she was only one but she was strong but she needed a plan and she needed it now.

Suddenly the timid man with pink hair with blue glasses on his face walked up to her, his face soft with worry and regret as he spoke to her. "It's going to be okay. Just lay low and don't go against Alvida, it's how I survived here", but before she could even take the chance to talk to him; he scurried off, running around to do chores as Alvida asked to do so.

He needed more help than she did, she was going to help him when she could.

☾𓇼࿐𑁍ᨒ༄🐚༄ ᨒ𑁍࿐𓇼☽

The night time came, the pirates of Alvida's ship showing displeasure in Arielle's performance earlier of not showing enthusiasm and celebration of Alvida's name as Captain, decided to throw her into the lower deck of the ship.

It was dark and musty inside, it almost made Arielle dizzy. Taking the weapons she hid under her clothes from Alvida's crew, she noticed the boy with pink hair was busy cleaning Alvida's bloody club, a look of displeasure and fear painting his face.

Using the silence to her advantage and how he was busy cleaning the weapon, Arielle used to it her advantage and grabbed her dagger using her hands that were tied behind her back and bringing them to the front as she sat up, brought them forward and sat back down.

The motion was a success but with a bit of struggle in the silence , Arielle managed to grab her dagger hidden in her top. The sheath of her golden dagger did not leave a mark on her skin, but it was uncomfortable to hide it there.

Taking the sheath off, Arielle started to use the blade to easily cut off the ropes tied on her hands. Suddenly hearing a strange noise, Koby turned his head to find what the captive of the ship was doing but to his surprise, she had cut the ropes that bound her already and was standing close to him.

His voice started to tremble as he stuttered, "No no no, please stay there. If Alvida finds you, she'll kill you", he felt fearful, she could tell as his face paled.

"Hey, it's okay. I'm not going to hurt you", she assured him, her voice was low and soft. "Please, I promise you", taking her golden dagger and putting it back in its sheath, placing it back on her belt while she put her hands up. "I will not hold my weapon at you, I just want to get out of here. Do you know a way out?", she asked him kindly.

He looked down, shaking his head but before the conversation could go further, there was a sound of a human groaning and wood banging. Arielle and Koby shot their attention at each other, their confusion evident.

The girl with red hair took the lead as she walked alongside Koby, stepping forward bravely showing no fear as she walked towards the strange noise. "Did you hold any other hostages on this ship?", she asked Koby curiously.

The pink haired man shook his head profusely, "No, if we did they had been killed a while ago", he answered her honestly, she didn't detect a lie in Koby's voice as she walked forward.

Suddenly as the strange sound carried on, hearing it come closer made Arielle turn her head and started to see a barrel shaking. It was maybe one of the barrels that Alvida's crew had brought in earlier.

"Who's there?", Koby called out to the barrel making the sound, hoping to get an answer but Arielle was way ahead of him, she walked forward as she reached the barrel, taking her chance to open it.

Her hands soft as rose petals on the surface but calloused and rough from years of climbing rock mountains, trees and wielding weapons, taken the top of the barrel and opening it without hesitation. Suddenly a person popped out, without any warning nor explanation, Koby let out a scream while Arielle let out a high pitched yelp as she had nearly stumbled back.

However Koby continued screaming in fright and his legs started to run away from the direction of the barrel, Arielle was silent but she was glad the human inside wasn't injured or a hostage of the ship, hopefully.

While Koby was screaming, the man wearing a red shirt and black shorts that went to his knees, sped up to the pink haired man and covered his mouth with his hand, shushing him. "Knock it off. Sh", he instructed Koby, holding him there until he saw Koby nod his head in response, showing he was going to stay quiet.

Inside the ships cellar it was too dark to see but thanks to a bit of the moon light, Arielle started to walk towards the strange man that came out of the barrel. He was wearing a hat on his head and that hat seemed familiar and so did his voice.

Arielle tried to get a better view of the man in the straw hat, she had sworn she had seen it before.

"Please don't kill me", Koby pleaded silently. Hearing that request, the boy who came from the barrel was left confused as he still stayed on his knees, keeping eye contact with the pink haired man in glasses.

"Hey. Hey. Hey. I'm not gonna kill you, all right?", the man with black hair wearing the straw hat promised him. "I just need you to be quiet", he instead instructed Koby.

Arielle stepped forward, clearing her throat silently as she walked forward towards Luffy. "Hello, I am very sorry to interrupt, but I think we've met before", the girl with red hair walked forward.

The boy with the straw hat lifted his head up and directed his attention towards Arielle. "Really?", he tilted his head in confusion but still showed curiosity, despite it being dark, his vision of the red haired girl was quite clear.

"I want to hear it, but first things first, do you have any food here?", he asked Koby and Arielle. That attitude, it was very familiar.

"What?", Koby asked in confusion while the straw hat man started to walk around.

"I'm starving", he answered. Arielle sighed and started to walk after him.

"Your hat. Let me see your hat please", she requested, suddenly he stepped away from her.

"Alvida doesn't let me eat until she finishes her meals", Koby answered timidly but then started to stay quiet as he watched Arielle try to talk to him.

"Why do you want to see my hat?", he asked her curiously but put his hand over his straw hat protectively. He looked into her eyes, they were bluer than the ocean itself, something that drew him in. Those eyes, that red hair.

"Can I ask your name please", Arielle requested politely, she was now more curious and she wanted answers.

"Oh yes, I am Monkey D. Luffy, and I want to be king of the pirates!", he introduced himself enthusiastically while he held out his hand in the air.

Suddenly it started to come back to Arielle. How could she not have seen it before? The Straw Hat? His face? His appetite being greater than his common sense.

Arielle let out a light chuckle which turned into an even greater laugh, "Oh my. Luffy? I can't believe it", putting her hands on her face, trying to stop the tears from overflowing as the memories came back to her. "It has been so long, I see you still have my father's hat after all these years", she sighed almost nostalgically while letting out a relieved chuckle.

Suddenly it started to come back to Luffy, he started to see it. The red hair? The curiosity of the hat and knowing its origins. How could he make himself forget?

"Arielle?", his jaw dropped, suddenly all the memories coming back to him. "Arielle Lebeauchenea? Like, your father is Shanks and your mother is Ophelia?", he asked excitedly, his hands grabbing her shoulders unexpectedly as he leaned in, looking at her face. A big grin spread all across his face, "It is you!", he almost started to cheer.

"Luffy oh my Neptune! It's been so long!", Arielle tried to keep her voice down as much as possible as she hugged her best friend she hadn't seen in a very long time. He shared her hug in return as he couldn't stop smiling, the fond memories they made together when she visited his island with her sisters, her mother and father, those were the good old days, she even came to visit after her father left for seas and then she suddenly stopped.

"Oh my! How have you been? How are your sisters and how is your mother?", Luffy asked excitedly, it had been a while since he had seen Arielle's sisters as well and her mother too, it has been a very long time.

Arielle's face nearly dampened at the question but she kept a smile straight up, "they're all good, they're just staying at the island, how'd you even get here?", she asked him curiously. There was so much catching up to do.

"Oh. It's a funny story", he chuckled lightly as he put his hands on his hips, "but that's for another day, let's get some food", he announced and thus, continued his search on the ship for a potential meal or just a snack to eat.
