Aya had been staying in the East Blue ocean at Baratie Arc. A resturaunt on the ocean and a very good one since Sanji one of the cooks made her food without asking payment. At first it was a bit scary when the blonde man noticed her but with his friendly and a bit perverted attitude Ay got used to him. She had asked him not to tell anyone about her. Nor did she answer any of the man's questions. But complimenting on his cooking easily made him forget.
Deep in the ocean Aya waited until she saw Sanji. Once she saw the coast was clear she swam to the surface. Smiling she got out and instantly she was all dry. 'Hello Sanji.' Hearts in his eyes Sanji wiggled,' Aya- swan !' Setting down a sweet fruit and cream like food in a wine like glass. Taking a bit she smiled,' This is very good.' Hearing the complement the cook wiggled. Sanji knew what to prepare easily since she loved fruit. It was obvious since he gave her fancy cut fruit the first time he fed her.
Once finished Aya set aside her cup and spoon and kicked her legs in the water. ' Sanji what was with that yelling earlier ? It was Zeff, the head cook that much Aya knew. 'New chore boy, is in debt because he cannot pay.' Sanji explained. 'Oh-' Aya began but she was cut off by a childish voice coming close to them. Instantly Aya dived but watched as she saw a dark haired boy talk about Sanji joining his crew, pirate probably since Sanji had explained.
Smiling she left to swim and explore a bit of the sea. When she came back through Aya became worried, a giant pirate ship, it looked cut up and smelled of death. Starvation. A gray haired man was threatening everyone that if they did not feed his crew they would all die.
Ignoring the man's talk Aya swam near Zeff's feet. 'You love to hear yourself talk.' When the cooks noticed the girl Aya waved at Sanji,'Hello Sanji, I was exploring the ocean.' The cooks only gave the blonde a stare until one man talked about what happened to their ship. Every one began to tremble, well most. Blinking Aya asked who's Hawk- Eyes ?'
Blinking at her the old cook gave her a look. Just then green flames appeared through the fog. A tall and pale man appeared on the coffin like boat. Before she knew it Zoro, the green haired swords man challanged the man. Looking at the old cook sha asked were do you keep your first aid kit ?' 'My ofice.'
Smiling she leaped out of the sea suddenly dry and in a short dress and sash. Passing the cooks Aya went to retrieve the first aid kit. When she got back a pirate grabbed her hair. 'Got ya !' Screaming in fear Aya made a scene as she tried to get away.
Gaining everyone's attention, Zoro and Hawk- eyes as well. Zeff stopped his cooks from helping the young girl, he had a feeling she was fine and to prove it a sword appeared in her hand, smiling she cut the man's hand to get him to let go and then kicked him into the sea.
Crying in pain the wounded pirate clutched his cut hand. Smirking she headed to the cooks, tossing her hair casually as if not the most amazing thing had not happened. 'Wow that was amazing !' Luffy yelled. Everyone had respected her even Hawk- Eyes did as well.
In the end Zoro lost. 'Crap.' with that Aya dove into the sea as Don Creig yelled to Hawk eyes for reminding him about taking his head. 'That guy is crazy, did he not see what Honey eyes did to Zoro.' Aya muttered but Mihawk heard and he lifted a eye brow.
'I'm going back to sleep. I had my fun.' His slight french accent. Blushing Aya could not help but think how hot and exotic. She allmost melted except she hid her face with her long black hair.
Ignoring te idiot man the swordsman began to leave only to deflect a bullet from Don Kreig who was aiming at Aya. With that the handsome swordsman left. Watching him leave, Zoro was all bandaged up.Nice boots.
While wondering about where she could find boots like those Aya ignored Zoro's speech and idiot Don Kreig getting beat up. The only thing she could think of was the hot swordsman. Strangely she was not afraid of him like everyone else but then their were her parents and the fact was she loved pissing off her uncles.
Later
Sanji was joining the Straw Hats, smiling to herself Aya thought of the golden eyed man. While in deep thought a pair of arms wond around her. Jerking up it was Luffy who said,'You are joining my crew.' And with that Aya began her travel as a pirate. The first goal was getting Nami, their Navigator back along with their ship.
