Ultimately this is a Marco X OC fanfic, but there will be some Ace fluff as well ^-^ A few notes: The story is going to begin five years before Luffy actually sets sail (2 years before Ace sets sail). Also, I perceived Marco's devil fruit ability and the whole 'Phoenix' persona as that he is essentially ageless (as in he no longer ages because his power is constantly regenerating) Depending on where I go with this story, it may end up being more 'adultish' and I may have to up the rating later on, but that's still being debated. Also I feel like I shouldn't have to mention this, but I will anyway..... I DO NOT OWN ONE PIECE!!!! (I hope that's obvious) ...meh I can't think of anything else I want to add....

Akira is a strange 16 year old girl who wants nothing more than to fit in. All her life she was feared due her terrifying powers; her foster parents were so afraid of her that they shipped her away to Grand-line Reform Academy (A.K.A Prison for dangerous teens). When she reached this new boarding school, she discovers just how messed up the place really is. High electrified fences surround the campus, students form gangs, chasing after the title of strongest. Everything is a eat or be eaten, and if Akira doesn't join a gang soon, she'll be the one eaten. But what happens when Akira manages to catch the attention of the four strongest hot-shots on her very first day? What happens when she realizes she not the only one with strange powers? How will this High school of Hell turn out? [A Cliche Reverse Harem for all you One Piece Fans :P]

Akira has never had a normal life. Filled with darkness and mystery, fear and anger. Those around her, ever her so called parents detested her. Finally, her foster family found a way to be ride of Akira. Shipping her off to Grand-Line Academy. High electrified fences surround the campus, students form gangs, chasing after the title of strongest. The motto of the school is Eat or be Eaten. Akira needs to join a gang, and fast. But when you have the four hotshots trying to get you to join their gangs, it's a little more difficult then she imagined. CONTINUED The first few days didn't turn out the way Akira planned. Who'd have thought Akira would be in fights and caught in the middle of gang wars? Not her, that's for sure. But now something even worse is coming. Someone has been sent across the gate and into Hell and Akira is determined to get him back before it's too late. And of cause, nothing is easy for Akira. Family issuse, boys, and you know. Impending death. What could go wrong?
