Finally setting sail after spending all day and night yesterday in a town, you smiled at your fellow crew mates as they carried in supplies and of course barrels of beer. The air was so fresh and clear, you couldnt help but be in such a good mood.
"What're you smiling at, (Y/N)?" Your red haired captain chuckled. You turned to him and shrugged, sitting on a nearby box.
"It's just a nice day today and I'm happy we're setting sail again."
"Didn't you enjoy your time in this town? You went to a spa and shopped for new clothes. Hard to think any girl would rather be out at sea than enjoy a spa and shop." You laughed and felt the ship moving.
"It's just... I dont know. I want some action! You know? Last time I actually got to use my gauntlets was about 3 months ago." Your captain laughed and placed his hand on your shoulder.
"So you wanna just shed some blood, huh? Don't worry! We'll end up bumping into some unfortunate pirates who will think they're the greatest thing that hit the grand line! You'll have your time then." His words made you feel excited. Cocky pirates were the type of pirates that tried their hardest but never really was any good. Being cocky was a sign of weakness to you. The red haired pirates weren't cocky. More laid back and fun. You would've appreciated if they had more serious moments but in a way, you still enjoyed the lack of stern thought or actions.

"ARE YOU READY, (Y/N)?!" An excited one armed captain asked. You turned your head in confusion and just stared at him.
"Today marks the 9th month since you've joined us! Tonight we celebrate!" Everyone cheered as you rolled your eyes, making your way to your cheerful captain.
"Since when did you need an excuse to drink." He stopped immedietly and looked at you, smiling nervously.
"What are you even going on about? Im celebrating your 9th month with us!"
"So, since its a party in my honor, if I requested no drinking, then-"
"Alright, I get it. However! I did get (Favorite Alcoholic Beverage/Favorite Beverage) for you!" Chuckling, you hugged Shanks' arm and thanked him. Before you or him could say anything else, one of your crew mates came running to the two of you, panting with wide eyes. You and Shanks stepped to him, giving him a questionable and impatient look. He looked up at Shanks and stuttered.
"I-Its, Haw-"
"Why do your men run from me when they know I wont do anything?" A husky voice questioned. You and Shanks looked behind the panicking man to see a tall male who wore a long coat, no shirt and a hat with a plume in it. You blushed at this strange man but at the same time had your guard up.
"Mihawk." Shanks said in a serious tone. You glared at the stranger and waited for your captain to give you the word to tear this guy apart. While your body tensed up in anticipation, you saw Shanks walk to the man. The man, Mihawk, stood his ground and kept his striking yellow eyes on the red haired man before him. You were getting antsy. Not cause you were worried about your captain but because you had just finished telling your captain how you wanted some action and he's about to have all the fun right before your eyes.
"What brings you here?"
"I floated by and saw your ship." There was silence. It killed you and you wanted to leap at the man but you were very obediant so you stood where you were.
"Hahaha! Well, you came just in time! We're celebrating tonight!" The crew all cheered as Shanks placed his hand on the mans shoulder and chuckled. The man kept a straight face as he watched Shanks.
