#shanks 'oops rayleigh's going to kill me'

[stealyourheart]

My partner and I talked about a Kingdom Hearts ONE PIECE AU and I just think. About it. Constantly.

Luffy is Sora, Ace is Riku, Sabo is Kairi and Sabo who "goes missing" and "loses his memories" of Luffy (tbf everyone does for Sora BUT THE PARALLELS) and how Ace and Luffy probably looks for Sabo like how Riku and Sora looks for Kairi while Ace gets tricked by the Darkness:tm: that it can help him find his missing brothers and loses himself to the darkness--

While Brook and Usopp are Goofy and Donald respectively (court musician, royal army's sniper) BECAUSE SHANKS IS KING MICKEY and it makes s e n s e ecause Yasopp would be part of Shanks' crew and they're busy with Shanks and they need someone to find the Key so Brook and Usopp go find Luffy

AND ZORO IS LEON! And Nami is Yuffie, while Robin is Aerith and they all u know get dragged into Luffy's adventure, his quest to find Sabo and Ace and his dream to find ONE PIECE (Kingdom Hearts) after it faded away into darkness like the stories Shanks told Luffy about--AND AND AND Atlantica is Fishman Island and they meet JINBE and Triton is King Neptune and etcetc

Aalso how Shanks, instead of "giving" Luffy a devil fruit, ends up giving Luffy his Keyblade instead--unintentional successor... AND ERAQUS IS WHITEBEARD with Marco Thatch and Izo being Terra Aqua and Ventus....... Rayleigh is Yensid, Yensid being Mickey's original teacher, Shanks most likely learning from Rayleigh, and then Rayleigh teaching Luffy like how Yensid conducts the trial for Sora and Riku...

Pete is Buggy.

Maleficent is a mix of Tashigi and Smoker, not really a BIG BAD villain and actually ends up helping Luffy/Sora...

Oh, also with Zack being Rosinante, Cloud being Law, and Sepiroth being Doflamingo...

There's just... head empty, only thoughts about this AU-

EDIT: FORGOT ABOUT FRANKY FRANKY IS CID!!! HE'S A GUMMI SHIP ENGINEER this ship runs on LAUGHTER (and cola)

Imagine finding out that the observation haki doesn't work on you

You: *is the newest crew member on the red force so you're hard at work organizing the cargo hold* sir, I finished the inventory record.

Hongou: hmm? ... Oh, go take it to the captain for review and once he approves it bring it back here and I'll show you where we store them. The captain should be up on deck.

You: got it *goes up on deck and spots shanks standing side by side with Benn, talking, staring out at the ocean*

Shanks: *checks the log post* it's starting to look like we managed to escape that storm.

Benn: oh gods why did you have to say that? If I have to spend the night awake because we're sailing through the eye of a hurricane, I'm going to kill you.

Shanks: *sticks his tongue out*

You: *walks up behind Shanks* hey captain! The inventory record is ready for you to review.

Benn: * throws himself away from you like a cat does a cucumber*

Shanks: *feels his heart jump* Whoa! Geez, (Y/n) watch it!

You: oop sorry *holds out the book to him*

Shanks: *very unsettled by the fact you snuck up on him while he was using his observation haki, but takes and reviews the records you brought* they look fine

You: alright, I'll take them to Hongou, sorry again.

Shanks: *as soon as you leave he starts probing out with his haki to find you* I can't use the color of observation on them.

Benn: me neither, I think this requires further looking into

That night

Shanks: we're going to play a game tonight

Yassop: oh boy, here we go

Shanks: but it's only for those of us with an observation haki, and (y/n).

You: why me?

Shanks: you'll go hide somewhere on the ship, and those of us with observation haki will go find you.

You: again, why me?

Shanks: we're testing a theory.

Two hours later

Lime: how?

Shanks: I don't know

Yassop: this doesn't make sense, we should be able to feel them.

Benn: but we can't, and we have no idea why

Hongou: we taking them to whitebeard or Rayleigh to figure this out?

Shanks: both I guess, hell we might even take them to Katakuri to see his he can see their future.

Benn: I'm sure Big mom would love a visit from you

A week later

You: *walks up behind Shanks*

Shanks: *drunk off his ass*

You: *grabs his sides and begins to tickle him*

Shanks: *shrieks*

Benn: get em! Get em (y/n)!

Shanks: I hate all of you!
