Chapter Text
Sitting in your usual Bar and drinking. Today was an awesome day, because you heard the Kidd Pirates were on your Island. Finally you would meet the famous Eustass Captain Kidd. You couldn't wait for it.
Sitting in the bar of the town and it was about a half hour later you saw him walking into the Bar. Keep watching him all the time.
Come on, you can do it! you told yourself, but to be honest you were a afraid chicken.
You did need more alcohol for this! After five more glasses full of Rum you were pretty much wasted.
Hearing steps beside you, you turned your head in the direction. And there he was Eustass Captain Kidd.
You felt how your eyes got big, he looked even more awesome from near. It was like he could feel your eyes on him as he looked into your direction.
"Got a problem, Woman?" Keep looking at him with big eyes, your drunken brain didn't realise the longer you were looking at him the more he got pissed.
The moment he opened his mouth again you interrupted him. "Let me join your crew!"
Looking with big eyes into his face you were hoping he would say yes.
It came different, as you expected. "No." Was his short answer.
Now you got sad. "Why not?" You ask him like a little child who couldn't accept that her parents said no.
Not realising how Kid's face got more annoyed. But before it could totally escalate another person came to calm Kid down. "Kid. I think having one person more for our crew wouldn't hurt."
Looking now exactly to the other person who said it you recognize him as Killer.
Today was really your lucky day to meet such famous People.
"Fine! Whatever! But do one stupid thing and I won't hold back from throwing you overboard!" Said your now actually Captain to you.
The next moment you literally hugged Kid.
So happy you weren't for a long time, you didn't even realize Kid got angry again he probably almost reached his limits by now.
Looking up into his face you just smiled.
"Don't try your luck, Girlie! Now let me go!"
You did as he said. "Aye Captain!" Keep smiling at him, you said.
Later you followed them to the ship.
The Victoria Punk!
It was even more amazing how you imagine it. "Aaah, it's so awesome!" You said out loud. Finally you are where you wanted to be. And maybe the alcohol in your veins made you react even more excited.
Luckily the ship would stay a while longer so you had the chance to get a few important things from your home. Your tinkering tools, your sketchbook, clothes and The picture.
Looking onto the picture it made you emotional. "I made it, we are finally there where we always wanted to be."
Walking back to the ship and onto it you were searching for Kid or Killer to get to know where you could put your stuff. "Hey, girl. Come with me. Killer told me to show you your room."
Turning around you saw the person which was talking to you, it was a tall man with Blue- gray hair and stitches on his mouth.
For a moment you were just staring at him, not because he was scary or something he simply made you interested.
What was his Story? Why did he have stitches? Was that how he got born?
So excited you weren't for a long time, but for now you would hold back with your questions. Now you had to follow him to get to your room.
"By the way, I'm Heat." Not expecting him to tell you his name you smiled at him and told him your name too. Hopefully you could make friends with him.
***
Being a few days on the ship you had learned the rules painfully. And the most important of them was: Don't piss Kid off!
There was one moment you had done so.
You found his workshop on his ship and of course you wouldn't be you if you were not excited to just start to examine everything.
And so you learned the second rule too: Don't enter the workshop without permission! And well then of course you learned another one too, you really were too curious too often.
It happened that you were running into a crewmember. He was a big guy full of muscles. "Can't you look where you are walking, girl!" He was looking annoyed.
"But you can pay me back." Seeing how he was looking your body up and down showed you what he had in mind. The moment he would have grabbed you you took your hand and broke his nose. After this everything went out of control.
A fight was starting, bets were made. It didn't take long until an angry voice was heard.
"The fuck is going on here!" It was of course Kid.
The fight stopped and everyone went silent. "You! You come with me!" It was Kid's voice again.
First you didn't realise he meant you, until you got dragged by your shirt from him. The moment he stopped you almost lost balance. "Looks like, so useless how I thought you were gonna be, you are not. You broke his nose. Why so?" Was he really asking this?
You still were a little mad, you just said what you thought, even if you were shy.
"He deserved it." The next moment you found yourself getting hold by your shirt and Kid was holding you in front of his face. "Don't think you can harm my crew without a punishment. You have a week to show me why I should keep you here." With this he let you go and you were falling on your butt. "Now get out of my eyes."
Without a word you left the Captains Cabin fast. Walking back to your Room you had one thought in your mind.
You weren't sure how you should prove you were worth being in this crew.
So you just went to keep working on your blueprint of your knives. It was still a little to work on even though you had some prototypes already made.
And after all you were a tinkering expert.
