"OH MY GOD, THANK GOD YOU'RE ALIVE." Ayane embraced (Y/N) The moment she stepped into the Inn. "Did he hurt you?"

'No, He was actually pretty nice. His name's Zoro.'

Ayane stared.

"Zoro as in... Pirate hunter Roronoa Zoro?"

'Roronoa... That's a nice last name, try saying that ten times fast.'

"Roronoa, Roronoa, Roronoa, Rororonoa, Rorono, Roroano-" Ayane Let out a chomp, and shouted in frustration: "DAMI' AH BIT MAH TOU."

(Y/N) Couldn't stop laughing, and her hysterical, maniacal laughter filled the Inn taking everyones attention from their meals and conversations to the Pretty girl who laughs like some kind of teenage version of Cruella De Vil.

"OGHAY, WAT AR YOU LALING A', MY TOUN'S BLEDIN'."

'YOU SOUND LIKE A FAT FISHMAN DYING!' (Y/N) Laughed as she wiped away a tear.

"How du you no? You herd wun bifure?"

'Suck on an ice cube and press a clean cloth against your tongue. Works like a charm.' 

"No soorah ef ah shu than' You Oar wat."

'Just do it.'

"Fan. by va way, kan you ge' sum Abbles from va fruit sture?"

'Okay.'

(Y/N) Opened the door, and went outside, scanning her eyes over the shops that she passed, hunting for a fruit store like a marine officer looking for a criminal. She had grown used to that. Ten minutes later, she noticed the store that Charol worked at, and she went inside, door making a soft ringing noise as she entered. Charol looked behind her for the source, and smiled when she saw that it was none other than the Assassin that she had hired a day ago.

"So, Did you do it?" The blue haired girl said, leaning on the counter and eating a pear.

'Check for yourself.' (Y/N) replied as she picked four apples from an apple stall, and gave them to Charol, along with seven berries.

"Thanks, have a nice day!" Charol said as she stuffed the apples into a basket, and handed it to the (H/C) haired assassin in front of her.

(Y/N) Merely nodded at her thanks, and looked at her feet as she was about to exit the door. However, (Y/N) Didn't expect the door to open in her face, whacking her flat in the face, and she fell on her backside, apples spilling everywhere.

"Dammit, Sorry, wasn't paying attention, You alright?" A familiar voice said.

Wait.

Is that who I think it is?

S**t. It is.

Roronoa Zoro.

"Oh, It's you, Need help?" Zoro said, reaching out his hand to the fallen girl. She stared at the Moss-haired man, and stuck out her hand, a very familiar fear boiling up in her stomach as he helped her up. The moment their hands touched, (Y/N)s heart raced and she blushed slightly.

Oh god no. This guy could kill me. How come... What is this feeling? It's... Kind of like... It feels like my heart is in my throat... I don't think that I've felt this before.

(Y/N) Bended over to pick up her apples, hands trembling with shock, but Zoro didn't seem to notice.

'So, Uh... W-What're you doing here?' (Y/N) Tried to give the impression that she's innocent so he wouldn't suspect her.

"That idiot Sanji was flirting with some girl, and she pulled out a pistol and shot him in the leg, so me and a few others had to come to the markets to buy food."

'He's a klutz.'

"I know."

'Anyways, B-Bye!'

Like a bat out of hell, (Y/N) Raced out the doors, and ran to the Inn, hand preventing the apples from falling out.

She slammed the door behind her, and put the apples on the counter.

"H-Here's your apples." (Y/N) Panted, but when she looked up, Ayane wasn't there.

"Hey, has anyone seen the Innkeeper?"

Everyone shook their heads, and the instant that they stopped shaking, The door opened and closed.

'Thanks (Y/N).' Ayane said, straightening her glasses.

"Where were you?"

'I just realised that I've run out of fish, and so I went over to the docks to get some, and this guy came up to me and started flirting with me, and was really close to kissing me, so I shot him.' She whispered, and (Y/N) Hi-fived her.

"That guy flirted with me too."

'Anyways, thanks for the apples.'

Ayane walked away to the kitchens, and seconds after (Y/N) Turned around to go to her room, Ayane rushed out the doors, alarmed, and scanned the floors of the inn.

'S**T, WHERE IS IT?'

"What're you looking for?"

'THE SNAPPER, WHERE IS IT?'

"The snapper?"

'THE SNAPPER.' Ayane fell to her knees and looked like she could rip her hair out. 'DAMNIT, THE FISH SHOP'S OUT OF SNAPPERS NOW, AND I DON'T HAVE THE SNAPPER.'

"Calm down Ayane, I'll jump into the ocean and find one."

'YOU CAN'T SWIM. REMEMBER?'

Damn. Keep forgetting that I have the devil fruit abilities.

"Actually, I'll just fish one out."

'Thanks.'

Timeskip brought to you by having the spiciest meal I've ever had.

(Y/N) Knew she must've looked stupid. Blue T-Shirt and black jeans was normal, but a 2.5 meter (8.2 Foot) long fishing rod, portable freezer, and a bag filled with fish bait wasn't. She looked at her feet to avoid eye contact, and sped along the streets, mind wandering around, bored as hell, and scanned her eyes over the stalls and shops she passed. She stopped in her tracks. Although she had been living here when she was six, she still wasn't familiar with the streets of Dawns gate, since she was always too busy in her backyard, training herself to be stronger. She had gone even more unfamiliar ever since she started her Career as an Assassin, and had to move from town to town, island to island, country to country.

"Um, Escuse me sir, Do you know where the nearest beach is?" She asked a middle aged red haired man who had a striking resemblance to Hitler.

'Well, so you go along this street, turn left at the seventh street you pass, then turn right at the eleventh street you cross, keep walking, and you won't miss it.'

"Thank you sir."

Was there even a word to describe how (Y/N) Was feeling? Subconscious? Yeah, that's a good word. It was basically that she was daydreaming and pain no attention to her surroundings, even when a couple of boys stared at her, trying to flirt. They eventually gave up, and kept talking to each other.

Ten minutes later, She reached the beach that the man had told her to go.

(Y/N) Walked a few more meters to a small dock, and asked the man if she could hire a boat.

'Yeah yeah, take that one.' He pointed to a small fishing boat in the waters.

"How much?"

'Just take it.'

"But-"

'I SAID, TAKE IT.'

(Y/N) Cringed slightly, but she obliged, untying the boat, and setting sail. It was small alright, but at least it looked nice. The boat was purple with blue waves painted on the sides, and was polished so well that you can hardly tell if it's real or not. After sailing for what seemed like half an hour, She was starting to think that she had got on the wrong boat, and was just about to get the oars to row back to shore, when she saw something pink under the water.

Wait. Was that... A snapper?

She dipped her fishing rod into the water, and waited. minutes later, the little buoy bounced on the surface, and she heaved with all her might.

There on the hook, was a snapper, flipping around and twitching like mad. She put in in her freezer box, and just as she was about to leave, she saw something on the horizon.

A ship.

A pirate ship.

And not a friendly one either.
