Summary
When Luffy and Yura met at Makino's bar, they were both just children. Luffy's dreams were as big as his mouth and Yura found herself wanting to see them happen. And Luffy decided she would.
Back then she didn't realize how far into the spotlight Luffy would move, and that this spotlight is one she should better avoid at all costs. Soon, there will be a bounty on her head - not just for being part of the infamous Strawhat Crew, but for reasons far bigger than just the Search for the One Piece.~ With illustrations (sometimes) ~
This is basically the One Piece Story, adding an Original Female Character. However I won't stick super closely, don't expect direct quotes. Just the general idea of big events. I don't like retelling and always find it boring in other fics, so this will start with Yura (OC) meeting Luffy when they were children and how she got into the ASL-mess but skip the whole creation of the Strawhat pirates, probably. I'm more interested in late Paradise and New World :)
Enjoy!
