Zoro was tired of this. He hated that everything and everyone just kept moving. It annoyed him to no end how one second, he was walking along side Rhythm and the next she was gone. He is well aware of the fact that everyone had a horrible sense of direction and always blamed it on him for getting lost, when they in fact were the lost ones.
At the moment, Zoro was wandering around along the harbor, an unfamiliar one that is. The one the Sunny was at the port that sent the smaller boats out to those famous coral reefs, and was bustling with burly fishermen coming in from morning fishing. This one, h

"No before you do anything, even hug me, tell me how the fuck are you still alive!" I hissed. My emotions were jumbled up, and I hated it. I didn't know whether to be happy, confused, pissed off or sad.
"Well, I survived," Ace said.
"You had a molten fist ran through your chest. It melted most of your vital organs," I narrowed my eyes.
"At least support me on this! I survived okay, I don't know how but I did!" he shot back.
"Like I can believe that! You could be a fucked-up fraud for all I know?" My voice rose.
Ace and I never really got along, we were okay sometimes, able to comply with whateve

Hands brushed the sides of my jean, sliding softly over the rough fabric. Nimble finger looped around my belt while another caressed the small of my back. Gentle digits stroked the under-side of my ass and between my thighs.
They were cold hands. Cold, dead hands of ghostly smoke.
They felt real, oh so real, but I knew they were just an illusion.
The cold ocean wind brushed through my hair and tugged my clothes as a half-moon shined down from above. It was the early morning, hours before the sun would rise.
I woke up two days ago officially. I talked w

Katsu was a man I loved and respected. He was my best friend, consultant and partner. I respected him for his talent in the art of music, able to sing, play guitar, and dance with skill few possessed. He's so much fun and so damn creative. He's there for me when I need him, my own guardian angel in a way.

The yearly festival was coming to Foosha Village. It's taken months to prepare for the one week of nothing but fun and adventure. Live music, fresh food, and partying till your legs break (literally, three years ago). People from nearby islands came to this festival. Even some royals up from Goa come down to celebrate.
"Jade, I think you're old enough to participate in the Talent Show." Makino said, wiping down the counter at the Party's Bar.
"I dunno. Maybe." I was twelve years old, the awkward stage where you're not a teen and you're not a kid anymore.

There is an island in the New World, protected by its own laws. No danger is present, no harm comes to those who are not stupid, and there's only creativity.
Verto; the island of music. Musician's come all over the world to this secret paradise, where no harm would come. They relax and do what they want. Few besides the musicians know of Verto, and those who do are sworn to secrecy.
It's a beautiful place, where artists of all sorts perform in the streets, practicing new pieces before tours. Dancers kick through the streets, styles ranging from sharp hip-hop to willowy lyrical. Musicals are always playing in the th

A Pirate's Heart EpilogueIt was pouring outside a small pub, where a few sodden customers had come in for a late pick-me-up. It was 10:34 pm, and the bar will close in a couple hours. But since it was a hard-working time of year on this island, there were only six people in this shabby pub. The bartender cleaned some glasses, talking lowly to an old lady in a shawl while a man with hazy eyes and a tankard of beer in his hand four stools to the left of her, about ready to fall over from all the alcohol he's already consumed. Another man, this one even older than the one at the bar sat in the corner swishing a vodka tonic in his bony hands, bald head gleaming in the diMore Like This

"Well, I better get going," I said, jumping gracefully atop the railing of the beaten Going Merry, "I got things to do and you gotta ship to fix up."
"Wait what?! No you're not!" Luffy said.
"Yeah, I am," I fixed my fedora and pulled my bag higher up my shoulders, "Nice meeting you all! And thank you for everything!" I waved cheerily.

Pushing you is harder when you cry.
We've got mountains still to climb.
Avalanches round us fall.

We've got youthful sport to play,
Regardless of the fault lines,

"How did I lose both Robin-chan and Nami-san?!" Sanji cried, pulling a handkerchief between his teeth. "Rhythm-dono! I'll protect you from the shitty bastard! Oh and Witch too."
"Um thanks." I said. We were back at the Going Merry, sun now replaced by the moon. The high tide lapped the small ship gently as Sanji cried, Zoro napped, and I tried tuning out Sanji's moans with Lady Gaga. Her music really isn't suiting the mood. And no one here was taking this all too seriously.
"Guys! Guys!" Nikko came stumbling onto the ship, out of breath and twigs caught in her hair.

A few empty cans (which I threw under Nami's bed), spare change, a pencil, truffles (which I ate), a box of matches, and a battered set of playing cards, wrapped in a rubber band. I unwrapped them and counted. All 56 of them. Good.More Like This
I started shuffling the cards expertly. Flipping and shuffling faster than the eye can see as I went out onto the Thousand Sunny's deck. I approached a snoozing Zoro, with a napping Felina on his head.

I love you so deeply,
I love you so much,
I love the sound of your voice
And the way that we touch.
I love your warm smile
and your kind, thoughtful way,
the joy that you bring
to my life every day.
I love you today
