"thank you miss, have a good day!" i said kindly, handing over the bag of goods

"yes, thanks y/n" a kind woman said, grabbing the bag and leaving with a wave

it was nearly time to close up for the day, so i walked around the counter to the front door, flipping over the sign, it now read as "closed"

i let out a tired sigh, already exhausted from the long day

i dreaded each step up the long twisty stairs, wishing I could just be in my bed

letting out a yawn as i walk to my kitchen, i make a sandwich

i walk over to my balcony, and sit in my favorite chair, I take in a deep breath, enjoying the calm vibe

loud cheers, gasps, and squawking break me out of my relaxation, I look up and a large swarm of news coo are dropping papers

i shoot up from my spot, getting a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach, I sprint down to the street, and grab a paper off the ground

i look to the nearby people, everybody was out and reading them, several people looked happy, while others looked shocked

                           stranger POV

"Portgas D Ace has been captured, set execution in three days" i read out as the news coo flew over head

a large swish of wind hit my face, i turned and a young girl stood there holding a news paper

her face filled with curiosity, she unrolled the paper, i let out a small grin, waiting to see her happiness at the great news

she covered her mouth with her hand, and small tears started to spill, my smile faltered at her reaction

she dropped the paper and backed up, her eyes started to glow a low grayish blue, and slowly started to turn a deep red, her hands dropped to her sides as she turned her head towards the sea

her feet had sparks coming off them, she took a long deep breath, and then vanished into thin air, a burn mark was on the ground where she stood

i shrugged, walking off, thinking i was just imagining things


about a week has passed, nobody has seen L/n y/n since the day the news coo dropped by

a search team was made to go out searching for her, but no luck so far 

Now a woman is reading over documents and signing several, when suddenly a man in warm clothing burst into the room

"We found her!" He slams a missing poster down, a missing poster of y/n l/n

The woman jumps up "where? Where is she?" She asked

"At the hospital! She hasn't woken up and she is injured" he said while going to to the door

The soft clicks of the woman's heels were heard hitting the floor as she walked to the door

"Are her injuries bad?" The woman asks

"She has a deep cut in her arm, but otherwise only small cuts and bruises" they walked together as the woman wrote down information on her notepad

"Right, where was she found?" She asked
