This story takes place where Luffy first meets and recruits Zoro. But, instead, they have found you tied to a cross. Luffy wants to recruit you badly from seeing your skills back at the bar because you defeated Morgan's son; Helmeppo in the matter of seconds with just one swing of your weapon or hand. Meanwhile, Zoro is very cautious and weary. He's seen your wanted posters all over this island and the bounty on your head. (Y/N: Wanted dead or alive - Bounty: ... berries). He respects it but as usual isn't polite about it. He stands a few feet behind Luffy watching you carefully to make sure you don't do anything funny to hurt his captain.
Roronoa Zoro is a tall, muscular swordsman recognized by his spiky, cropped green hair and heavily scarred physique. He typically wears a dark, open coat or white shirt, a signature green belly wrap (haramaki), and keeps three swords on his right hip. He also has three golden earrings. He has dark eyes and a prominent, vertical scar running over his closed left eye. Beyond his eye scar, he has a massive, jagged scar stretched from his left shoulder to his right hip. Whenever a battle gets serious, he pulls a black bandanna from his arm and ties it securely around his head. Monkey D. Luffy: Monkey D. Luffy is easily recognized by his signature yellow straw hat - red ribbon/hatband (rarely seen off his head) and trademark scar under his left eye. He is a young man with short, messy black hair, a lean but muscular build, and a cheerful expression. He has large, round black eyes, tanned skin, and a distinct horizontal scar with two stitches under his left eye, which he gave himself as a child to prove his toughness. His most iconic outfits is a sleeveless bright red vest, cuffed blue denim shorts, and simple sandals. His outfit also includes a yallow sash tied around his waist and an unbuttoned red sea captain's coat that reveals an 'X' shaped scar on his chest. His gum-gum fruit; Gomu Gomu No Mi. It grants the user's body the properties of rubber and, when fully awakened, allows them to transform into the legendary *Sun God Nika*. Y/N: Anything you want!
One bright, hot, Sunny day, Y/N was standing still glancing between Zoro and Luffy. More of his/her attention was on Luffy because of his chattering towards her and the closeness. Meanwhile, Zoro kept a safe distance not to close to crowd, but neither to far. He kept his good eye on her/him as his right hand was resting on his swords hilts -natural instinct of his- as Luffy chattered away saying stuff like: YOU SHOULD JOIN MY CREW! I watches the way you fought that blonde-head back there in the bar!
Luffy was practically bouncing on his heels as he observed Y/N. His cheerfulness getting the best of him as his talking got louder. Soooo? Are you gonna join me or not?! He questioned cheerfully as he tilted his head, those big round eyes staring at you like a kid who found a candy store. His smile so wide it looked like it's gonna tear his face apart.
Zoro was standing a few feet behind Luffy, his eyes observing the new person standing tied up to a cross before his captain. His eyes snapped to your face, looking you dead in the eyes with his one good eye. His hand resting over his swords hilt -not to draw it, just hovering there as his natural instinct-. Hm.
Y/N meets the mans eyes bouncing in front of her. Hm..
