    Summary

    Smoker was a good Marine. He'd fought against pirates his whole life to protect civilians, defending what he believed was Justice.

    Then he witnessed the Government permit slavery, something supposedly outlawed, and his world shifted as he realized the pristine white flag of the Marines hid some ugly blemishes.

    He did what his instincts demanded, but he knew the consequences would reach him. So when one day, a Vice Admiral and a new Captain for Loguetown appeared with orders to execute him, he wasn't surprised.

    Smoker was resigned to his fate until a kid in a straw hat fell near his cell. The kid was a pirate, and Smoker hated pirates, but-

    "Pirates are people who are free! Who explore the world, chase their dreams, and follow their own path! And I'm going to become the Pirate King, the freest person in the sea!"

    And Smoker felt his world shift again. If the white flag of the Marines hid blemishes... Maybe there were a few clean spots in the pitch black flag of the Pirates?

    **

    Or: Luffy kidnaps Smoker from his own execution, and Smoker is forced to join the Strawhats.

    ...He still isn't sure if it's the best or worst decision of his life.

    Summary

    “Hey mom, I think I found something.” Susan stood up, pushing her glasses up into her hair. Max reached in the space left by the absent drawer, tugging the folder free. She straightened up, eyes wide as she read the neat handwriting on the small tab that jutted out further beyond the papers that were stuffed in it.

    William.

    “Who’s William…?” Max handed the file off, following her Mother over to that old armchair. Susan sat down, crossing her legs and quickly flicking the file open. Her glasses perched back on her nose as she scanned the first few documents. “Mom? Does Neil have like, another kid or something?” Susan shook her head, flipping a page over and reading the next.

    “Well, this changes things.”

    Summary

    But then by some sick twist of fate, Billy didn’t die. Getting stabbed all over by some giant mind-controlling monster didn’t do him in. Instead- according to Max- a bunch of people who apparently knew all about the so-called Mindflayer swooped in and brought him to a private military base where they saved Billy’s life.

    They called it a miracle.

    Billy called it penance.

    Or

    After surviving the mindflayer Billy stops talking.

    Steve, bitten by a Upside Down twisted dog, will find himself changed beyond recognition.
    This change will threaten to tear the party apart.
