My eighteenth birthday... A day in which is suppose to be special, the day I become a young adult. The day in which I should never forget and boy will I never forget the events that took place that day. It was the day my parents told me I would be marrying the son of my parents rival company. Not only did this arrangement happen before I was even born, I have no say in what I want. I have to grin and bear having to be married to a complete jerk! So what if he is mouth wateringly hot?! He is an ass! Pervert! Womaniser! You name it, he is it! If this is not bad enough, I learnt that my whole life has been a lie. My parents do own a shipping company, but I never would of guessed they were involved in the mafia! Not only that, my supposed fiance is the King of all mafia in America. I wish my family and I never left France those 2 years ago!

Echo comes from the island Funesto deep in the Grandline, an island of Devil Fruit cultivators. She possesses the knowledge passed down to her from generations of Devil Fruit cultivators to grow, harvest and even manipulate Devil Fruits. After a massacre of her homeland, Echo is the sole survivor and last of the Devil Fruit cultivators in the world.The World Government is desperately trying to get their hands on the sole survivor of the Funesto massacre, a single girl who has the knowledge and quite possibly the ability to bring the World Government down on her own. Can the government catch and execute Echo before time runs out? [On a side note.... this is starting out around the same time Luffy is starting to gather himself a crew] So as of the beginning of the story Luffy is about 17 for those who were wondering... I'll let you all do the rest of the math on that haha [Another side note] Music may be totally random and have absolutely nothing to do with the story, mainly whatever I'm rocking out to at the time of posting haha ^-^

Sequel to 'When You're Strange': Alice Rhowen, ex-fiance of Draco Malfoy, ex-Death Eater, is sentenced to life in Azkaban. But, not for long... Back at home, Ron Weasley, and a few others plan to break her free. But, with Voldemort still alive, and stronger than ever, that's not going to be easy.

Maddox Sterling is the daughter of a world renowned inventor and like father like daughter she's trying to make a name for herself in the world of gizmos and gadgets.Upon meeting the quirky inventor and her mechanical friends the straw hat crew decides that she'll fit right in with their odd lot as she has her own dreams to live for. Begins after the Straw Hat Crew narrowly escapes G-8 (Music is probably going to be completely random... though I'm going to try and match it... but i'll probably get sidetracked and it'll end up random)

Scarlet has never known the explanations of many things- why her kingdom is at war, why she can never leave the palace, why her hair is white and her eyes are red- but when she meets a boy named Nicholas in enemy territory, she begins to fall in love with him. However, she does not know if the explanations for these mysteries will build or destroy her relationship with him. Can she overcome the large walls in front of her to be with the one she loves?

' Hey check out this locket!' Lola said, giving it to me. I looked at it. It was small, almost the size of a peanut, made out of bronze. On it there were silver engravings. ' Never lose hope.' I read quietly. Lola Pevensie is sick of her dull life in Summit Lake. The people, the mountains, everything is boring and nothing can cheer her up. Well, maybe Ryan, her best friend. She needs new air in her lungs and decides to do so, whatever the consequences. But running away from her life, parents and secret would be harder than she thought.

Alissa had always hated pirates. She thought they were cruel, sick, and twisted people to choose a life of danger on the vast sea rather than a quiet life on the safety of the land. But when a pirate named Portagas D. Ace makes an appearance in her home town, he makes quite an impression on her. As she gets to know the man, she realizes that not all pirates are bad. But can her story end happily when she chooses a life on the sea with him?

This is the new version of the one before. So first I'm going to state that One Piece doesn't belong to me that honor goes to Eiichiro Oda. I own the character Kai and all the other people and places not mentioned by Eiichiro Oda.

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....
