Jurabi: Hello everyreader I'm DragonMaster Jurabi! Here's a new story I'm making about One Piece. So please enjoy and review!

Monkey D. Colleen

On a distant island filled with red oak trees deep in the West Blue, lies a large village of people of many ages. Surrounding the village were several red forests with large waterfalls. At the top of one of the waterfalls lies a white temple with sun and moon symbols placed around monuments. Inside there was a worship alter with statues of people of the past.

"Oh...where could he be?" A voice asked. Not soon later, a brown-haired woman wearing a purple and white dress entered the room. "It's been 10 hours already. He's never been gone for...THIS long..."

"Your Highness." A voice called to her.

The woman turned to a male guard, "Yes? What is it?"

"Satako has just returned." The guard said.

The woman's head popped up, "Oh! Thank goodness! Thank you kind sir, does he know where I am?"

"Yes, he does. He's on his way here right now."

"Okay...thank you."

"Of course, Your Highness. May I take my leave?"

"Yes you may."

"Thank you." The guard then left the room and went outside to see a blue haired boy wearing a white combat outfit with a sword strapped on his back. "She's expecting you, Joah."

"Okay, thanks." The boy named Satako said as the guard returned to his duties.

Satako walked up to the door and took a deep breath, "Okay, Satako, no pressure. Just go in there and tell her why you're later than usual. It'll be fine..." He whispered to himself. He knocked on the doors and said, "Kari-*clears throat* Karina...?" Satako's voice broke at first. The woman named Karina opened the door and gave Satako a leering look. "I would just like to say that-" He was cut off by Karina grabbing him and shaking him like a rag doll.

"What the hell, Satako?! Do you know how long it's been?! Do you?!" Karina shouted in anger and annoyance.

"L-Look, I can explain!" Satako struggled speaking through the shaking.

"You're damn right you can explain! How are you suppose to explain why you've been gone for 10 whole hours!"

"Okay! I will but will you please let go of me!"

"Gr...alright..." Karina let go of Satako and let him make an explaination.

"You see, I was walking around the beach this morning...and I saw a person washed up on the shore. So I had to wait until the doctors bring her to the hospital." Satako said.

"Really...?" Karina asked.

"YES!"

"And it took hours...?"

"I stayed for a while and looked after her. She was still unconcious when I left and it took longer than expected to get here." Satako said.

"Oh..." Karina's face fell, "Sorry, I-I just got so worried."

"Yeah, I know. Sorry I made you worry. You know yourself that wasn't my intention." Satako said.

"Yes, I did know. I guess I couldn't control myself enough. So...how is she?"

"Who?"

"The girl!"

"Oh right, she's still resting in the hospital. I'm not sure what happened to her but to be unconcious for 10 hours give or take, she must have taken a huge blow to the head."

"Oh my...Shouldn't we check up on her?"

"Yeah, I wanted to stay longer but I had to meet up with you. It would be alright to see her again. Come on." Satako said leading Karina to the village hospital.

"Alright, here we are..." Satako said opening the door. To his suprise, the patient was already up.

A raven haired girl wearing her hospital clothes yawned, "Man...How long was I out...?" She then stared at Satako and Karina for a minute and two and her eyes widened in shock, "OH MY GOSH! WHERE AM I?! WHERE IN THE WORLD AM I?! The girl shouted in confusion.

"Hey! Calm down, it's okay." Karina shouted.

The girl listened and started to calm down. She rubbed her hair and scanned Satako and Karina, "Who are you two? How did I get here?"

"I found you washed up on the shores. You looked like you suffered a severe head injury since it took you 10 whole hours to recover." Satako said. "You're in the isolated island, Garusk Island. My name is Satako Ukiski.

"And I'm Karina Suici. What's your name?" Karina asked.

The girl gave them a smile and said, "My name is Monkey D. Colleen, the one who will be Queen of the Pirates; that is my dream..."

"Monkey D. Colleen...that's a good name for you." Karina said.

"Monkey...D..." Satako was in deep thought.

"Well, Colleen, could you tell us what happened to you before you were knocked out?" Karina asked.

"Hm...no, I can't remember." Colleen answered. "But I do know is that I was in a bad situation."

"Well then, I guess you can stay here until you've rest up." Satako suggested.

"Well...I want to go now but I guess I can wait." Colleen said as her eyes widened, "Wait! Where is it?!" She patted the top of her head searching for something.

"What is it?" Karina asked.

"My hat! My strawhat! Where is it?!" Colleen shouted in worry searching the book shelves, window, and even under the bed.

"Your straw hat? You mean this?" Satako took out a straw hat.

Colleen smiled in joy, "Thank you so much! I would have been lost without this!" She placed the hat back on her head.

"Why is that one straw hat so important to you?" Karina asked.

"Because...It once belonged to my father." Colleen looked at her father's strawhat, "It was once given to him by a dear friend of his...My father was a great man who's just as crazy as my mother. We were a happy family...until something happened..." Colleen's happy personality turned somber.

"What happened?" Satako asked.

"I...I don't remember that either and it wasn't because of my head injury. All I know is that I was taken away from my parents and...nothing else. My mother told me that my father sacrificed himself to save me..." Colleen started crying on her father's hat, "Now...I'm feeling worried about my mother...I left her to go on this adventure, then I got into some trouble and...well...here I am. I wonder what trouble I got into."

"Don't worry, I'm sure some of your memories will return. Just give it time." Karina said.

"Well, we should be going. It's nice to meet you, Colleen." Satako said as he and Karina waved goodbye.

Before they could leave the room, they heard a scream. "AAAAAAHHHHHHH!"

"What was that?!" Colleen perked up.

"That sounded like it came from the hospital lobby!" Satako exclaimed drawing his sword, "Karina, stay here with Colleen!" With that order, he left the room.

Colleen immedietly got out of her bed getting Karina's attention, "What are you doing, Colleen?!"

"I'm going to help out, that's why." Colleen said.

"But Satako said to stay here." Karina said.

"Like I'm going to listen to that order," Colleen said. "Besides, if anything happens to that boy, I'm going to regret myself as long as I live for not doing anything. He helped me, and I'm going to repay the debt."
