{Modern AU} Sequel to Heart of Embers
(please note, you don't have to have read heart of embers to read this story, but some details will make more sense if you do)
Life had literally flipped upside down for you in the last few months. First your parents died in an accident, then you found out you were adopted and that your biological family died to some epidemic when you were a small child. Then you found out you had a living cousin who also survived the epidemic and were now going to live with them. You haven't really had the time to properly process any of this, but your pushing on, struggling on despite everything. Trying to pay of your school tuition and not cause problems, but then you went and lost your job, though maybe that isn't all that bad as your boss wasn't exactly nice.
And now everything continues to change around you, and honestly you don't know how to handle it. But when you look into his eyes and he smiles, something tells you, everything is going to be okay.
One Piece Characters and Art do not belong to me, only the story basis and the character "Ember"!
You met a boy with a straw hat back in impel down apparently your friend Ace was his brother. He said his name was Luffy and you said you really wanted to save Ace and he was your only friend in there in fact, like Jinbe, you were put in there trying to defend him. After the war at Marine ford, and after Luffy recovered he asked you to join his crew. You said yes and you decided you would stay at Amazon Lily to train. You already had Hockey and was generally really strong. Your job on the crew was to craft since you knew how to both make and clean weapons. on the crew you met a tall moss headed man who's name was Zoro (when he told you it was his hair color you were stunned), A cyborg named Franky, A talking racoon dog named Chopper (he was mad when you called him a racoon dog and told you he was a reindeer!), A skeleton pervert named Brook, A scary navigator named Nami, A mysterious and suspicious woman named Robin, A hilarious liar named Usopp, Your captain named Luffy, and a SUPER handsome man named Sanji ( who stood out to you a lot😏😘 ). BTW You are 18 years old before the time skip and 20 after
