(Third Person POV) Year: 1500 Location: Elegia

Walking on the shores of Elegia was a twelve-year-old girl named Uta. The girl wandered the island's coasts regularly after several hours of practicing her passion for singing. She'd go for long walks on the seaside and get lost in her thoughts.

She'd think about random things like fashion, what songs to write, and how Luffy was doing, but most of the time, her mind would wander to Shanks. It had been a year since he'd abandoned her on the island, and her blood boiled hotly thinking about him. However, her rage soon turned to sadness.

Despite leaving her behind, she still missed him dearly, as he and his crew were the only family she had. Gordon was a kind-hearted man, and she cared for him deeply, but he could never compare to her previous family or fill the emptiness in her little heart.

Many negative emotions were going through the young diva, and she felt like she would explode if she didn't release them. However, before she could do that, she noticed something, no, someone unconscious and bloody a few meters away.

Concerned, she quickly approached the body and gasped when she got a better look at the person's state.

It was a handsome brown-skinned boy who looked around her age, maybe slightly older. He had spiky black hair with red highlights that went past his shoulders. He had sharp features and a lean yet muscular build. However, what stood out about him was a pair of large black wings with red tips at the ends of the feathers.

Most of his body was covered in deep cuts, bruises, and stab wounds, and his left wing was a mangled mess, and half of its feathers were gone.

To the right of the unconscious boy were two swords. The first was a cutlass with a curved blade, a yellow hilt with a diamond-shaped pattern, and a golden guard with a thinner hand guard. The second was a silver-blue double-edged long sword with a black hilt, a crescent moon pattern, and a crescent moon-shaped silver guard.

The girl thought the swords were cool-looking and wondered where the unconscious boy got them. However, that was a question for later.

Uta was about to see if the boy was still alive but stopped as she heard him groan in pain and open his eyes, revealing his red orbs.

"F-Fuck," he hissed as he slowly sat up.

The winged boy was in immense pain with every movement he made. He felt like his entire body was burning on the inside, and even breathing strained him greatly as it felt like there were glass shards lodged in his throat.

"Um, hi..." Uta wanted to ask if he was okay but quickly realized that was a stupid question. Of course, he wasn't ok! He looked like he was a victim of jumping.

The winged boy turned his head toward her direction, and he narrowed his eyes, making her slightly nervous.

"W-Where am I?" he asked after several seconds of silence.

"E-Elegia."

The boy's eyes widened, and he looked away from her. "H-How t-the fuck did I end up here?" he asked himself lowly.

The boy couldn't remember much but knew he was nowhere near Paradise before everything went black. He tried to recollect his memories, but everything was coming back blank.

The boy couldn't remember if he had friends, family, his origins, how he got injured, and, most importantly, he couldn't even remember his name.

Noticing the dread in his eyes and looking like he was about to have a panic attack, Uta placed a hand on his shoulder, and he looked at her.
