"Luffy… Save me—BOP…!"
Nami jolted awake, her breath ragged, sweat clinging to her skin, and tears trailing down her cheeks.
"A dream… It was just a dream," she whispered, trying to steady herself.
In front of her stood an old man with a long, flowing beard.
"W-Woah! You scared me! And here I was just trying to wake you up!" he chuckled "Get ready, You'll be late for your exams" but then his eyes caught the tears on her face.
Panic set in. "Woah woah woah woah" He repeated "W-Wait! You can sleep more! I won’t disturb you—I’m leaving! Sorry"
Nami clenched her fists, her voice sharp.
"I don’t want to sleep, You Idiot!"
Nami shouts before realising what she said, recollecting her composure.
"O-Oh, I'm sorry Haredas-san... I" she paused "I thought it was a dream..."
"I see, And here I thought you wanted more sleep." The man hesitated before adding, "Come down when you’re ready. Breakfast will be done in ten minutes."
As he left, Nami ran a shaky hand through her hair, covering her eyes.
"Sleep? If all I get are nightmares… then I wish I never had to sleep again."

It had been 6 months since the Strawhat Pirates were seperated by Kuma on Sabaody...
After Luffy promised to return in 2 years, Nami had decided to join the Science Academy on Weatheria to learn about the sky science more! To become stronger, To never go through that again...
Nami momentarily stares at the morning sky, Which is filling with clouds...
"I wonder why the weather has been so bad for the past few weeks..." Nami thinks to herself before changing. After getting changed, She takes her bag and closes the door of her current house before taking off towards her academy
For some reason... Nami had started wearing long, heavy and moderate clothes instead of the light, free and fashionable ones she used to wear before, Almost as if she doesn't feel as confident anymore. She wore a loose brown sweater black on top off baggy jeans, with a wool hate on her head and shiny glasses on her eyes... She looked like a nerd
*SHE REACHES HER ACADEMY / 10:00am*
The academy she studies in is a private science academy on Weatheria. Led by Principle Haredas, It was one of the most prominent Science Academies in the world, And contained the most detailed syllabus for Weather science.
Nami had joined the Academy on the advice of Haredas San, Who had told her that she could become a Great weather scientist and control the weather to her desires. She joined the Academy under the false name of Namiko, To hide her true identity (It was more easy than expected as the Strawhats were assumed to be dead, So no newspaper contained any image or news of her, And the sky Island wasn't that connected to the world below, So most people don't even know about Nami)
It has been 6 months ever since she had joined the Academy and had made lots of friends as the age group of students was near 20, It was quite easy for her to mesh with them, But she never truly felt happy
*Nami enters her classroom* "Oi Look, Namiko San is here!!" Boys and girls gather around her as they ask some advices for the exam. "Now now" Nami says with a sweatdrop as they continue their queries but Soon, Exam starts!
--------------------------------------------------------------
*After Physical Exam Ends / 4:32 PM*
