(A/N); Hello, lovely readers! First and foremost, I want to put a disclaimer that if you HAVEN'T caught up to major points of One Piece, such as Water 7/Enies lobby, Alabasta, know who the Supernovas are, know a bit about the Charlotte family, know about Law's backstory or Corazon's story, or stuff along those lines that could be spoilerish, then I implore you, that if you do not wish to be spoiled, catch up with these stuff first before reading. I do not want to unintentionally spoil anything for you all; I want you guys to enjoy this story with no worries! Now that I got that out of the way, enjoy the story!~
P.S; If you guys have favorite characters that you will like to see play more prominent roles in this story, let me know! If possible, I could probably work something out

Mo' schooling, mo' problems; that is my motto. 'I hate adulthood...' I thought to myself, as I was currently stuck in a lame computer class that was mandatory to take for the first semester. To say I was ready to up and leave that class would be an understatement, especially when the professor that teaches the course has an attitude problem. 'Do I really have to take these useless classes for (Major name)? Colleges and universities really are just money hungry thieves.' I thought, not bothering to pay attention to this non-lesson, since the professor already went over this same EXACT lesson yesterday. I was so tempted to pull a Basil Hawkins, and stand up and say "This is stupid, I'm leaving". But, with my goodie two-shoes self, that wasn't going to happen. Besides, providing more gasoline to the dumpster fire that is my life will just make things a lot more worse. "(Y/n), can you help us with the next problem?" The devil asked me, as I felt my entire body tense up like I had a red dot targeted on my forehead. "U-um... I would, but I do not know..." At my answer, the demon smirked. "Yes, and you do not know, because you are not following along with us. I may have to deduct points for you today... maybe even give you a zero." At his response, I felt myself holding back a death glare. 'Fuck you too, professor.' At being practically humiliated in front of the whole class, the spawn of satan continued the mind-numbing 'lesson', as I really considered that Basil Hawkins approach from earlier. I mean, if I am going to get a 0 for today, I may as well go out in a bang, right? However, that goodie two-shoes side of me was stronger, so I decided to settle for a happy middle-ground. "This is stupid; i'm leaving." I whispered to myself, as I quietly packed my things, and left that room. It wasn't difficult to do, since I can be as quiet as a mouse when I need to be. Sometimes I wished I didn't restrain my sassy self, since it would be satisfying to call some of these annoying people out. However, that goodie two-shoes side of me always kept present, so that wasn't going to happen so easily, if at all.
'I need to clear my head...' I thought, as I trudged down the empty halls. I was going to exit through some doors, before I heard a peculiar conversation coming from one of the other classrooms. "Yes madam, for the last time, I have finally completed the prototype that you have requested! All we need now is a test subject, and then the project will be officially completed!" A soft male voice spoke, as I felt myself pale a bit at those more than concerning words. Prototype? Test subject?! 'Do we have our own Caesar Clown on campus or something?!' I pondered, not being able to help but be a tad bit nosy, as my head peeked a bit into the room.
What a big mistake that was, because it turned out this mad scientist was now looking directly at me. "Uh... sorry, wrong room." I mustered out on the spot, trying to now make a break for it, but it seemed the mad doc had a different idea in mind. "Wait, come over here." At this, I hung my head, and went to slowly go over to him. At least the guy didn't seem so scary. He was a short, blond middle-aged man that seemed incapable of hurting a fly. 'But, what if that is apart of the act? For all I know, this guy could be very dangerous!' My irrational paranoia spoke, as the rational logical side of me swatted that thought out. "Do you mind helping me out with this prototype I am working on? If you do, I will grant you whatever you desire!" He grinned to me with a very toothy smile, as I rose a skeptical brow at him. "Anything? Really?" I questioned, not believing his ridiculous words, as he nodded, seeming surprisingly earnest. "Absolutely! I never say anything I do not mean!" He told me firmly, as I shrugged; what harm could come from helping this guy?
"Alright, I am game. Explain how this is going to work for me." I folded my arms, as he clapped his hands together in utter excitement at my agreement. "O, frabjous day! Callooh! Callay! Heh heh!" He giggled, as I started to slowly regret my decision, as he then went to hand me a peculiar looking headband, that was connected to what looked like some supercomputer. "Okay, dear! All you will have to do is sit down on that chair there, and put this headband on! I already tested the technology on my lovely mice, so I know that it will cause no negative affects!" He explained, as I sweated a bit nervously. "Okaayyy..." I went to very reluctantly sit down on the chair, before the blond went to put the headband on my (h/c) head. "Splendid! Now, if you feel a bit dizzy, that's normal! This band will bring your utmost desire to fruition! Specifically- oh dear!" The blond gasped, seeming to look at the supercomputer in concern, as if something went terribly wrong, which just freaked me out. Before I could try to remove this band and make for the exit, a mist suddenly surrounded the room. I could of sworn I saw every color of the rainbow then and there, before I felt myself black out.
When I finally came to, my eyes were greeted harshly by the sunlight. 'What the-? How is this possible? The last thing I remember was helping that blond guy out with his mad science experiment!' I pondered questionably to myself, before I still felt that the headband was on me, but now in a state of tatters. "What was this thing suppose to do, anyways?" I questioned, removing the broken thing from my head, as I gave myself an analysis. Nothing but my environment seemed to have changed, which was good. "Where the heck did that blond guy go, though?' I questioned, as I went to take a walk around the area I was now in. It looked like no area I've ever seen, that's for sure. 'Where the heck am I?'
I went to naturally fish my phone from my pocket, going to see if I could use my GPS to locate where the heck I was, so I can get back to familiar ground. "Oh hell no, you're kidding me! Why is my maps bugging out on me?!" I yelped, going to look miserably at my phone. As if that wasn't bad enough, it seemed like I had no reception; it was like I was located in the middle of nowhere! 'Stay positive, (y/n)! Where there's a will, there's a way! If I walk around a bit, I am bound to find a bar of data at the very least so I can find my way back!' I nodded to myself, before going to enact said plan. 'Don't freak out, (y/n)... we got this!' I kept telling myself, but I couldn't help but be slightly concerned at being in what seemed like the boonies with no one around, and not even having a bar of DATA of all things! In this day and age! "Hey, blond professor guy? What kind of experiment is this? Forget this whole wish thing; I just want to go home!" I called out, hoping to get a response, but sadly, I received no answer.
It felt like forever since I have been aimlessly walking around this area. With each waking minute, I felt my patience and coolness wear thinner and thinner. If I thought that professor who embarrassed me in front of the whole class was bad, this was worse by a 100 times. "'What harm could come from helping this guy', my ass... I want to go home, my feet are killing me." I whined, just having enough of today, before something peculiar caught my eye.
Well, peculiar is putting it mildly. I started to flip my lid at spotting it. I couldn't help but fall like a sack of potatoes at seeing it; I just couldn't believe my eyes. "N-no, i-it can't be... that is impossible!!" But, no amount of pinching my arm made the sight go away, which meant that I was either losing my mind, or that this was actually happening, in real life.
What I had spied with my little eye, was a devil fruit.
How was this possible? I was still pondering that little detail out, before my stomach went to let out a rumble, as I couldn't help but question my sanity at this very moment.
This devil fruit was no kind that I was familiar with, so it must of been an unknown one. It was pitch black, like Teach's soul, and looked as if it was dripping wet. I inspected the fruit warily, before going to pick it up. Despite it looking so, it was dry as a bone to the touch. 'I wonder which power this one has... it looks so bizarre...' Before I proceeded with my current line of thinking, I went to let out an exasperated sigh. "Yay, I have officially lost it! ...I am hallucinating a new devil fruit right now!" I shook my head. "I blame whatever that headband did to me for this!" I pointed out, before my stomach rumbled again. 'Hallucination or not, I am starving! I was suppose to head out to lunch after this, not be here playing Survivor!' I frowned, before going to look at this hallucinated-or-not devil fruit. "Who needs to swim, anyways?" I sighed, as I weighed out my options. At the pace I was going, and by the look of the never-ending forest, I was going to be here a long time. Nightfall was an inevitable, and I have no idea if this unknown terrain was safe or not. "Oh, screw it; im hungry."
I went to eat the accursed fruit, trying to avoid the taste buds as much as possible, so I just maybe-had something to fill my belly with. After the first bite, naturally, it tasted rancid to the extreme. It took everything in me not to spit it back out; I needed as much of this food as possible, given the current situation! To my surprise, it wasn't such an imaginary fruit at all. I actually felt quite full after eating it whole. Also, not so long after, I felt a sudden rush surge through my veins, which admittedly freaked me out. By this point however, I sort of learned to accept that this entire situation was just weirder than weird, and knew that I have gained the powers of a devil fruit. Having eaten it, I have came to learn that the power that came from this fruit was... ink? Really?
"How lame..." I whined, disappointed that I got such a lame fruit, before I heard the sound of footsteps all a sudden. The sound of it seemed to be drawing nearer, which just caused my anxiety to go through the roof. 'This out of whack day just couldn't get any better, huh?!' I thought sarcastically, wishing more than ever to be safe at home now, as I went to hide behind a tree. "Sir, how many times do we have to tell you? The Supernovas are no longer here!" A female voice barked, as I heard a familiar detestable man speak. "And how many times do I have to tell you, that I am not wishing to find them right now! We are here to find that person, the one the blond brat mentioned!" He yelled back, before the female let out an irritated sigh. "Sir, if I were to be ever so bold, how would you even go about finding this person if you have no idea what they look like?" She questioned him, as I couldn't help but nod my head in agreement, before I then heard a slap, which made me wince. "No one asked you for your crap!" He snapped, as I couldn't help but feel pity at the poor lady who was slapped.
"I was the one tasked with this important mission of bringing this person to heel! Out of everyone, they chose ME for the job of getting this person to them! Like hell I am going to blow this opportunity away!" He growled out, before he then went to give a sinister snicker. "Now, whoever this person is, wherever they are, we will find them. If we do not find them, it is the end of the world as we know it, and I like living, thank you very much!" I then heard them scurry off, which was such a relief. I haven't even realized the breath I was holding in; i was so nervous!
"Why, hello there." I heard a deep, cold, voice say, which caused my soul to practically leap from outside my body. "Shit." I squeaked out, as I was now face-to-face with one of One Piece's notorious bad asses.
