-CRUSADE-

✰//06

Most of [name]'s childhood was a blur. She didn't remember much of her time before being found by the Whitebeard pirates. Only a name, Luffy. When it first appeared in her mind, she thought it might've been something important to her, but after some deduction, she came to the conclusion that it was a name. Of who, she couldn't quite remember just yet.

Being taken in by the Whitebeard pirates was a wild ride to say the least. "Sneakily" following the crew when they went out, wanting to see them in action, only to be found out. After a scolding from Marco, the young girl would usually be allowed to tag along with them.

Their adventures were joyous, riding along on Marco's shoulders as he soared through the air. Her giggles rung out, as she clutched unto the back of his shirt. There were some close run ins with marines from time to time but when you're travelling with the crew of the world's strongest man, there was no need for worry.

With them, [name] felt safe. She was protected and cared for. Even through her toughest nights when nightmares plagued her mind or her anxieties left her to isolate herself from them, they were right there when she needed them. Lots of comforting hugs and words were shared, just enough to make her not worry for the while.

But most of all she loved her time spent with Shirojii-chan (Whitebeard). She could listen to him tell stories of his voyages for hours on end. She especially loved his stories of Roger. The infamous king of pirates that managed to sail to the ends of the ocean. The first man to traverse to the last island, Laugh Tale.

This sparked an interest in her. Her sudden love for the open sea grew, swelled within her heart. And these stories were just fuel to the flames.
