The snow on the mountaintop began to crumble. And crumble again. And crumble some more. The Lapins had formed an avalanche to try and ward the trio of friends off. Soon enough, it formed afterwards. "RUN FOR IT!" Mirai exclaimed in terror as the three began to make their quick escape. "Those stupid rabbits! I'm gonna kill them for this!" Sanji yelled in total chaos. Mirai didn't know what to say. She just kept on running.
Luffy followed close behind with Nami still strapped to his waist. "Now what are we supposed to do?! How do we ditch this snow?!" the rubber boy exclaimed in terror. Mirai hesitated, but quickly spoke up. "I have no idea! I can't just use my powers to burn it or we'd be in a huge mess!! Nami is our top priority right now!" she exclaimed. "The dragon girl is right! We have to take cover! You have to protect Nami!" Sanji shouted.
Nodding, Luffy continued to run with the cook and hybrid as fast as his legs could carry him. "But...where do we go?!" he added. Sanji happened to spot a cliff that was super close to them. He shouted, "There! Head for that cliff!" Luffy asked why in confusion, but Mirai said, "We need to get to high ground! I can try to make a fire shield to protect us!" He understood fully, so the three ran to the cliff as fast as they could before the avalanche could swallow them whole.
"Guys! It's coming!" the hybrid shouted. She summoned her wings and grabbed the boys, the two of them screaming as they landed on the cliff. "Wow! You are strong Mirai!" Luffy pipped. She smiled as she sat the two down. "We made it. We should be safe," the cook said straightening his coat. He soon jinxed it. More snow was falling in on them. "We're not high enough! You had to jinx it huh?!" Mirai snarled.
Sanji only screamed as Mirai stood in front of the boys and formed a fire shield around them with her pyrokinesis. "Brace yourselves! It's gonna get hot!" she shouted as the shield surrounded them. The snow came piling in on them, but it melted as soon as it hit Mirai's fire shield. Both boys screamed as they became swallowed by the incoming storm.

Vivi and Usopp made their way to the town of Gyasta to try and find Doctress Kureah, the "witch" of the island. She happened to also be the adoptive mother of Mirai, and it was indeed true that she loved her adoptive daughter very much. "Say Vivi. Do you even think we're heading in the right direction to get to this Gyasta town?" Usopp asked her as the two rode through the snow. Vivi looked down at the map and said, "I'm not so sure. I have no idea where we're headed."
The slinger wanted to raise his voice, but he kept it still and said, "Well we'll be in trouble if we're lost." Another thought came to his mind. "If Luffy, Sanji, and heck, even Mirai arrived at the castle and didn't find the doctor, they might turn around and think why they were doing this plan of theirs or we find the doctor cause Nami is in bad shape!" The princess understood what was at stake here, and then handed the map to Usopp.
He was a bit lost at first, but then decided to just be proud of it in the end. "We should see a sign for this Gyasta place if we keep staying on this route," Vivi then told him. Usopp did a slight cheer to himself as the two continued to go onwards, but they messed up again. They noy only passed by the sign to the town of Gyasta, but they passed by Kureah....again.

Wapol was already starting his reign of terror back on the once peaceful Drum Island. He began to eat away at most of the houses in one of the villages, many frightened citizens hiding behind buildings as they watched the dreaded king talk to his followers and main henchmen. They were all agreeing with what the king was saying, including one of his best men. Someone named Kuromarimo. He then bowed before his king, informing him that some of the Straw Hats were headed to his old castle: Drum Castle. The very place where Kureah moved in and where Mirai lived.

Fanfiction"Well you know that this is where I grew up right?" Mirai asked Sanji and Usopp. "It's shocking to see that you grew up here," the cook replied. The hybrid laughed and said, "Yeah, since I grew up here, it's easier to have me being your guide on he...
