Hey guys, so before you assume I'm adding fate characters, im not it's actually an OC that is based on the legend of kiyohime.
So long story short she will be the friend/rival to Imu and when they both fall in love with a princess Imu uses her power to curse her friend and turn her into a dragon which kills the princess, and in grief seals herself deep within a cave, which happens to be Amazon lily's snake pit.
This will be my take on why Imu wants Vivi so bad, she believes Vivi is the reincarnation of the princess Kiyohime killed.
The curse I will explain in the future but for now onto the chapter.

As I run to the docks I see the three sisters at the port looking towards the ship as I stop next to Sandersonia, "so you three felt them too?" I ask.
Sandersonia and Morigold without looking nod, "yeah we sensed two people coming towards us on a small ship." Marigold says as the ship comes closer, "but how did you know about the ship?"
"Oh well, I managed to unlock Haki, but it's only observation Haki." I explain as she turns to look at me in shock before smiling, "then it looks like you are ready to claim your partner." She says cryptically as the ship lowers its anchor and I see them, Garp and Rayleigh.
"There you are brat!" I hear Garp says with his characteristic smile as I run to him, "oh did you miss your teacher so much you want to give him a hug?" Garp says as he holds his arms out wide expecting a hug.
*Bam*
I throw a punch at Garps who doesn't look phased, "you trackless idiot!!! How the hell can you be so careless?!" I yell at him as I feel a hand on my shoulder and I turn to see the dark king, "been asking him that for years kid." He says with a smile before walking over to greet boa.
Meanwhile I feel a crushing pain on my head as Garp lifts me up like Yami Sukihiro, "what do you think you're doing brat?." He asks with an amused smile on his face as I realize he is probably going to put me through an even more intense training regimen.
But before he could crush my head like a watermelon he gets stopped by Rayleigh who turns to me, "the three sisters want to take you somewhere, they said you managed to unlock observation Haki." He remarks as Garp looks shocked but smiles.
(Should I add yami sukihiro as a viewer?)
As I walk toward the three sisters Boa looks at me with ambassadorial demeanor, "I heard from Sandersonia you managed to unlock Haki, and as tradition for the amazons, we have decided to take you to the snake pit." She says with a serious look as she heads back to her palace as her sisters gesture at me to follow them.
"So I'm looking for a snake? I thought only amazons were allowed." I say to the two as we turn past the training grounds, some of the amazons stopping their training to look at the three of us in curiousity.
"Usually that's the case, but a few instances of outsiders gaining the privilege of finding their partner have happened in the past, but you will be the first male among them." Sandersonia remarks as I was wondering if I should be surprised or honored.
As we walked the sunlight was becoming more scarce as the jungle was getting creepier with each step I took, almost like something, or someone didn't want people to come here.
"We're here." I hear marigold say as they both stop and I see a cave, "okay so do you both come with me while I find my snake or do you stand outside?" I ask them as they both look at me with a serious look.
"The ceremony is a private and special moment for the citizens of Amazon lily, for everyone who enters the snake pit it is a rite of passage." Marigold explains as Sandersonia finishes, "so we must stay behind."
I nod in understanding as I turn to face the cave, "okay…then I'm going in." I tell them and I walk inside.

I am the storm that is approaching!

The moment I got one hundred feet in I see swarms of snakes writhing around and slithering everywhere, many looked at me and went about their business, some looked at me with curiosity, while some showed hostility.
"I wonder who will be my partner?" Iutyer to myself as I look at each of them, but I couldn't feel the connection to them, almost like they were rejecting me.
…Lonely…
Suddenly like with the archery range I hear a voice but this one felt…extremely sad and lonely..
I follow my instinct and turn to where I heard(sensed?) the voice and I see a steep slope hidden in the corner of the pit, it was a risky slope but it had very small footholds.
So carefully, while holding onto the wall which had grooves that looked like…claw marks?
"Okay, tread carefully now." I mutter as I slowly descend, as I go down I hear what sounds like sobbing, as if someone was mourning, but before I could question what I was hearing the path opens up and I find a huge underground lake.
And at the shore I see what looks like a girl, but something told me she was anything but a normal girl, she had small black horns on her head reminiscent of a crown, with long light green hair, she wore a dark green/ cerulean kimono with a folded fan in her obi sash, with stocking and sandals to bring the look together.
(I'm using a combination of the three appearances of kiyohime from the type moon fandom)
She didn't notice I was behind her, and I saw the tears on her face fall into the lake, 'did she cry this lake into existence? How much has she suffered?' I think to myself before I decide to speak up.
"You have suffered a lot." I say as she stops crying and turns to look at me, and I see her eyes, they were yellow with black slits reminiscent of a reptile.
"W-Who are you?" The girl asks as I take a seat across from her, "my name is Yuuji Takahashi, may I know your name?" I ask the girl as she takes a look at me before opening her mouth.
"My name is…Kiyohime."

Well folks I hope you enjoy this chapter, I actually tried reading the legend of kiyohime and I wanted to make Yuuji's partner, and give her a better ending, but should I keep her yandere personality or leave it?
Anyways I'll see you all next week, peace😁✌️
