14 long years had passed and Astoria had grown into a beautiful young woman. When she was 16 she found three 1000+ year old dragon eggs and hatched them.
She hatched two girls and one boy. She named them Dreamer, Merikh, and Mavros. Astoria loved her dragons dearly and they loved her, she was their mother.
⋯⋯⋯
Dreamer landed on a rooftop with Astoria on her back. The other three dragons were with Mihawk at Kuraigana Island in the Grand Line.
Astoria and Dreamer were at a small place called Shells Town in the East Blue, she was there to retrieve a map to the Grand Line from Captain Morgan, the Captain of Marine Base, but before she had to face that axe handed asshole and his brat of a son, she needed a drink first.
Astoria jumped off of Dreamer and placed her hand on Dreamer's side, "You be a good girl, okay?" Astoria walked to the side of the building and jumped off, then landed on her feet and continued walking as people watched her with terror, shock, and confusion.
She walked towards a small bar and opened the door. The bar went dead silent as she revealed herself. Astoria walked inside and stood at the bar. The bar keeps stood far away from Astoria talking amongst themselves.
"I'm not serving her."
"She's the Dragon Mother."
"She's a princess!"
"She'll kill us all."
"Oh hush." A woman walked away from the group and towards Astoria, "What can I get for you love?" the woman asked and Astoria smiled, "I'll take some gin, thanks." the woman smiled, "Comin' right up." she walked away from Astoria and began making Astoria's drink.
The front door swung open and a man walked in with a large bag in his hand, red hair was poking out of the top of the bag, Astoria only guessed what poor soul at pissed the green haired man off.
The man had short green hair, with three swords at his hip with three matching earrings. Astoria knew exactly who that man was, his name was Roronoa Zoro, the Demon pirate hunter. He walked over and placed his bag on a chair, and lent against the bar as another bar keep walked over and tended to Zoro.
He spoke to the bar keep as the woman walked back over to Astoria with her drink, "Here you go love." she placed the drink down in front of the white haired woman.
"Thank you." Astoria smiled and took a drink of the gin.
Zoro glanced over at Astoria and quickly realized who she was. The white hair wasn't the only factor that tore Astoria apart from everyone else, her style was was also it, the dragon claw necklace was also a sign. No-one had access to any that was made from a dead Dragon. Dragon bones could be made into something called Dragonnite. Dragonnite is used against dragons, it can harm them and weaken them.
Dragonnite was rumored to make one immortal, but the Anakondar family knew much better then that.
Astoria felt Zoro's eyes burning into her skull, "You know it's rude to stare?" Astoria glanced over at Zoro.
Zoro looked away, knowing he got caught staring, Astoria looked back ahead. "I assume you know who I am... Roronoa Zoro" Zoro nodded, and then looked back over at Astoria, her white hair moving as she moved her head slightly and tapped her fingers on the counter, her two of her fingers on her left hand were covered in bandages, which confused Zoro. But he didn't ask.
"Yeah, I know exactly who you are, Astoria Anakondar." she smiled and turned back towards Zoro, her necklace moving slightly, against her chest, "Well, Demon Pirate Hunter, what are you doing here in Shells Town?" she asked with a little smirk.
Zoro huffed out a laugh and moved slightly so she could see the bag. Astoria stood up and walked over to the bag, "What did this guy to do deserve this?" she laughed and pulled the bag down slightly so she could see the man's face, "Mr. Seven of Baroque Works." she said after seeing the seven tattooed on the man's face.
Astoria stood up straight and looked at Zoro. Astoria stood at a whopping five feet two inches, so she wasn't the tallest person in the world, but that really didn't matter. She was scary as hell, and at the age of 12 gained a bounty of 80,000,000 berries, but that bounty quickly became void because of her father. (Also her purple eyes scare the shit out of everyone, but don't tell her that)
Astoria walked around Zoro and took a drink out of her glass, while Zoro watched with a confused look on his face.
"You know Baroque Works?" he asked and she nodded, "I've had I few run ins." Astoria and Zoro heard a little giggle, both of them turned their heads and saw a little girl staring at them with a smile. Astoria tilted her head and smiled. She ran off.
Astoria looked confused and Zoro and he shrugged his shoulders.
"Well, you alone? Last time I heard of you, you had your friend," Astoria paused trying to think of Zoro's friend's name, "Lockley! That's her name. Sunniva Lockley." Zoro nodded with a smirk.
"She fell asleep on the ship we docked with, so I just left her there. She'll find me when she gets up and she's my sister, by the way." Zoro corrected.
When Zoro, Lockley, and Lockley's twin brother Lars, were older, their close friend Kuina died. The three of them concluded that they would be siblings. Well Lars and Lockley basically forced Zoro to be their older brother, by calling him their older brother and Zoro just went with it. But a year ago, Lars went out on his own and left Lockley and Zoro. They didn't know where he went, but they missed him deeply.
