Fake Rebel Soldiers 🔫

"Well? Do you see Nami's group? L-Luffy?" I look around for him and the others. "What?! Where did they go? Shit! Luffy!! LUFFY!!"

I better go look for him, who knows what trouble he'll get into.

~~~~

"Did I hear something?" Something raise from the sand. It's not another one of those dragons?

It's a giant scorpion, looking for a fight. "I wouldn't if I were you."

Tries to attack, set the bastard on fire. Start looking for Luffy again, "can't say I didn't warn you."

Now, what, look up it's a purple lizard standing up. Does it want to fight too? I step to the right it follows. I step back does it again. I sidestep it steps with me, this is getting annoying.

"You wanna get in my way, too?" It starts crying,

"If you don't want to end like him. You'll take me to my brother."

It nods, I hop on its back. "Good, now go." It takes off, it better be taking me in the right direction.

~~~~

Now dusk still haven't found Luffy or the others. "Luffy! Where are you?! I thought you were taking me to my brother?"

It starts shaking, "we'll stop for the night."

I jump off it back, set up camp. I hear it creeping away. "Don't even think about running off."

Turn around, it freezes. "Get back here now." It runs over, curls up on the sand. I have to find Luffy soon. Hope he doesn't run into Blackbeard.

~~~~

The little bastard tried to run off this morning. It had second thoughts about running off.

I see something in the distance. "What is it? Finally a village, hopefully, Luffy here. Come on get going!" It runs into town.

This place doesn't look to bad, doesn't seem to be affected by the war. Kids are running playing. Something smells good, hits it on the head. "Go that way," it admittedly runs off in the directions.

It climbs up the walk onto a balcony.

"Big Bro! Terrible news, Big Bro!" A big guy goes running past.

Wonder what all the fuss is about. I follow him, smells like the food this way.

"I wonder if Luffy causing trouble?"

"What do you want?! Pipe down, I'm trying to eat!"

"Sand pirates! Sand pirates are attacking!"

Not Luffy... "Stop there," I listen in... There's the food...

"For real?! What do we do?!" How can he be wearing a beanie? It's hot out here.

"What do you mean?! There's nothing we can do against them! But we can't stick our tails between our legs and run, either! Tell us, Big Bro! What should we do?" He's not a complete coward, I guess.

"Alright! Let's stick our tails between our legs and run!" He slings his gun over his shoulder.

"We're running away?! Three shout, how can he wear a kimono? Something wrong with them.

"But what happens after we run away? Live on the edge of starvation again?" Big guy

"You moron! Staying alive is all that matters! There are plenty of other villages like this! Now let's scram!

That's for sure..." Big guy

I see they found Sandy. This food tastes good,

"What're you?" Bro something?
