(I DO NOT OWN THE ART!)

>At the corner of you eye, you saw Kuma's hand approaching you and and glanced at Franky last time. 'I'm sorry love, i love you so much' You thought just before your eyes met. "Fran-" *poof*

You felt yourself floating in something, but no matter how much you wanted, you couldn't open your eyes. You couldn't get your thoughts away from the crew. What had happened? Where did Kuma send all of them? Were you dead? One thing hunted you and it was that how clearly you remembered Franky's teary eyes, before your vision went black. As your memories ran in your head, you felt yourself drifting off again, into deep slumber.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Hey, miss! Are you alright?" Warm voice talked next to you, disturbing your sleep. "Miss? Please wake up! I don't want to walk to the hospital with you." You opened your eyes slightly, stirring at the bright light. "Where am i?" You tried to get up, but searing pain went through your head, making you lay back down. "Oh thank god you're alright!" As your eyes had adjusted to the light, you saw a ceiling. "Please take it slowly, i'm not sure what you've been through, but it does not look pleasant." You chuckled little. "Oh really?" You turned to look who the voice belonged to.

There was this black haired man, sitting next to your bed. His rather big and beautiful green eyes full of worry, as he looked at your current state. "You didn't answer my question." He looked at you puzzled for little while before remembering. "Oh yeah, sorry... umm you're on Remona Island." Suddenly he went quiet and looked at your left hand, and his eyes turned into sorrowful. "You're not married?" Surprised, you looked at him for little while, before shaking your head slightly. "Why so?" His eyes went even more sad, and he turned his eyes to the floor.

"This island is the worst place for woman to live in, if she's not married when she enters it." You looked at the man, still confused. "What do you mean?" He turned to look you straight into your eyes. "On this island, women have no right to do anything, literally anything, without their husbands permission. If you're not married, you're going to be forced to." You looked at him as if he was crazy. "In the worst case scenarios, they're going to be forbid you from eating and sleeping, in the other words, the just watch you die slowly." He then realized what it might sound like coming from a guys mouth and his eyes widened. "Don't worry though! I'm not going to do anything to you! I'm not into murdering people, or not into girls."

You nodded slowly, taking in all the information. "So, do i have any chance at getting away from this island? I need to get to the Sabaody Archipelago in three days... wait! How long did i sleep?!" The guy looked at you surprised for little while, before shaking his head. "I'm not sure, it's been a day since i found you." This time it was your time to looks shocked. You jumped up from the bed, ignoring the aching pain in your head. "I need to leave now!" The guy got up and walked over to you. "You can't just walk out, someone might see you and then you'll never get away from here."

You stopped looking at the guy. "Oh god, i forgot the stupid marriage thing!" You sat down on the bed. "What can i do? Can you help me?" He thought for little while, before scratching his neck and looking at the floor. "You're not going to like this.... Okay umm, marry me." He looked into your (e/c) eyes, pure seriousness in his own. "W-what? I can't just marry you! I have a boyfriend and crew waiting for me! I can't marry you!" Then realization hit you, you didn't know if any of your crew mates were alive, more importantly, you had no idea if Franky was alright. "Oh god... what do i do..." You hid your face to your hands and sighed. "I have proposal."

You turned to look at the guy. "Marry me, and i'll help you out of here. Me and my boyfriend, Mark have been thinking of doing it for a pretty long time already." You sighed again, nodding softly. "(Y/n). My name's (Y/n)." Smiling little you offered your hand to him. "Tom, at your service." He smiled back to you, taking your hand. Your eyes averted through the room, when all of sudden they landed on newspaper.

You got up from the bed and walked over to the table, where the newspaper was. Suddenly a great smile appeared on your face, as you looked at the front page. "Tom, i think we should make this plan with time and careful thinking." He looked at you confused before he walked next to you and looked at the paper. "Someone you know?" He asked, pointing at the picture in it. You smiled. "You could say that." You chuckled little, before leaving the table and sitting back to the bed. Tom looked at the picture. It had a black haired man with straw hat, standing at the bell.

You fell to the bed, looking at the ceiling again. "Two years huh... well i believe we can make it." Tom just looked at you, confused as you had suddenly relaxed completely. "So how are we going to do this marriage thing?" You turned to look at Tom, wanting to get this thing started. Bright smile appeared to his face. "You'll accept my proposal?" You nodded to him, and with that he ran to different room. When he came back, he gave you one Silver ring. "Here, every family gives their sons individual rings that have been registered, so that the women can be recognized."

You looked at the ring, and before you noticed it one tiny tear rolled down your cheek, surprising you and Tom both. "W-what's wrong?!" You shook your head, wiping the tear away. "It's nothing, just never thought that i would be married to total stranger." Tom smiled to you little sadly, before sitting down on the bed and wrapping hand around your shoulders. "You miss him, don't you?" Without hesitation you nodded your head. "Don't worry (Y/n), you'll see him soon, and the rest of your crew." You smiled little and leaned to Tom's shoulder, and before you noticed it, you were sleeping.

Tom chuckled little as he looked at your peaceful expression. "You're really brave..." He put you down to the bed and covered you with the blanket. Suddenly the door was beat open and man ran to the room, looking shocked and slightly scared. "Oh god! How is she!?" The man ran next to the bed and Tom hit the back of his head. "SHH! Be quiet Mark, she's sleeping." Mark turned to look at the girl in bed and smiled little, before he noticed the silver ring in her left hand. "She...she accepted?" He looked at Tom and he nodded, making the same bright smile appear to Mark's features. "Finally! We can leave this place!" Mark jumped to Tom and kissed his lips quickly, before hugging him.

~~TIME SKIP~~

Time went on, Mark worked hard, as Tom spend most of the time with you, making sure no one did anything to you. You trained everyday, thinking of the battle with Kuma. You never wanted to be separated from your family again, so you decided that you had to become more skilled and stronger. Before you noticed it, you could do amazing things with your daggers and the pain that you felt, was fading little. Still your thoughts of the crew and Franky never left your mind completely.

Days turned into weeks, and weeks into months. Before you even noticed it had been two years. You really had been lucky that Tom found you, seeing how women were treated by other men. If it had been someone other, you wouldn't bee alive anymore. One day thought, Mark came running into the house, bright smile shining on his face. "We can finally go!" Tom turned to look at you and smiled, before you and him ran to Mark and hugged him. "I can get to home!"

Mark kissed the top of your head and then pecked Tom's lips. "But, i'm not sure if i'm ready to give my little girl away yet." Mark muttered, making you and Tom laugh little. "Well you'll get to meet him, and tell him never to hurt me, or what ever it is you dads do." You giggled as you kissed his cheek. As the time had went on, you had became quiet close with the couple, and soon after the marriage stepped in, you had become like daughter to Mark.

The next day, you had packed everything and you guys were ready to leave. You three were walking to the ship, Tom holding your hand until you reached so called 'safe zone.' You all got into the ship and when it left the coast you smiled brightly. 'Finally'
