Note:
This is a special chapter regarding a character that may or may not appear in official chapters. If they get off well then I'll add their appearance to latest chapters as well. But that's for later, let's get on with the chapter.Leo is sleeping on his bed, snoring lightly dreaming of food, training and wealth. When suddenly he felt a presence that woke him up from his deep sleep.
"You better have a good reason to ruin my sleep....whoever you are..." He said rubbing his eyes, and when he opened them, his eyes widen in pure shock.
Why you ask? Because on top of him, stood a pale girl with long black hair and a white dress standing next to him. She looked at him with sad eyes and reached out her hand, her appearance is transparent. She speaks in a echoey voice and says
"Find me...Leo....for I am hidden beneath the sparkling diamonds..."
And then she disappears from existence like a think air.Leo jumped out of the bed and then looked around, but the presence he felt was completely gone.
"Was that....real....or...was I....dreaming?" He asked himself before rubbing the back of his head in pure confusion and shock.Leon decided to ignore the ghost and go back to sleep. He convinced himself that it was just a weird dream, and that he had nothing to do with the girl. He resumed his relaxation, hoping to forget the whole thing.
But the next night, he saw her again. She appeared in his room, floating above his bed. She looked more desperate and urgent than before.
"Leon, please... you have to help me... I don't have much time..." she said, her voice trembling.
"Go away! Leave me alone! You're not real!" Leon shouted, covering his ears.
"I am real... I'm Lila... and I need you to find me... I'm-..." she couldn't finish what she wanted to say and vanished.
Leon was confused and he didn't know what she meant by 'hidden beneath sparkling diamonds', or how she knew his name. He wondered if she was a curse or a blessing, and why she chose to speak to him.
He decided to ask Boa Hancock, the empress of the island. She was a tough and proud woman, but whenever she sees him she would act different. She always tried to impress him and win his heart.
He found her in her palace, sitting on her throne, surrounded by her loyal warriors. She smiled when she saw him, and invited him to sit next to her.
"Leon, my darling, what brings you here? Do you need anything?" she asked, batting her eyelashes.
"Actually, yes. I need to ask you something. It's about a girl..." Leon said, hesitating.
"A girl?.....What girl?!" Boa Hancock asked, frowning.
'What's with her all of a sudden....?' Leon thinks with sweat drop but asks anyway
"Well, she's... some kind of a....ghost. She's been haunting me for the last two nights. She says her name is Lila, and she wants me to find her. She says she's hidden beneath sparkling diamonds. Do you know anything about her?" Leon said, hoping she wouldn't think he was crazy.
