Today, is Tony Choppers very first day at University. More specifically it's moving day, into his dorm that is. Classes don't start until early September, he may be a week early but why not get a headstart on his new adventure? Tony could have waited a few more days, however the excitement was too much for the boy to handle, and it beats waiting around at home.

Having to convince his mother to let him go was challenging.

Of course it was. The boy is way too young... 16. Much younger than his classmates will be he imagines. But he's here already. He always dreamed of becoming a Doctor and now here he is. In just one week, he'll be starting his classes as a Pre-Med student, his first big leap towards achieving his dream! Although he can't help feel rather intimidated and a bit overwhelmed because of it all. He can't help but wonder as he waits in the rickety lift in his new student apartment building...

Will he make any friends ?

"Ah the fifth floor !..- Now what room is it?.." Chopper sighs as he drags his cases out of the lift, trying to not get caught in the door. Why are they so small?...You would think those things would be a lot bigger. The lift looks so outdated and creepy, and seems borderline dangerous.

Speaking of creepy, Chopper is certain these corridors aren't as they were advertised. Not that it matters he supposes, the place itself was listed at a very affordable price. And luckily for Chopper, his expenses are being covered by his mother.

What is that smell? he wondered as he wandered down another corridor, counting the letters displayed on all of the doors... Come on Tony..you can do this...just..just get to your room... everything will be okay....you're a man now...! He encouraged himself.

He's all alone..he has no one here to rely on...if he turns back now , his mother will never let him leave again ...! He'd be in that house forever and...-
5K, 5L He read the numbers of the doors as he passed by, what a strange letter system. Ah! 5M...this is it..!

Despite his victory, that awful smell has gotten a lot stronger. Please say it's not coming from his apartment is it ?...

In no time, he manages to get the key from his pocket. More like some white worn out card... Why not just give him an actual key?
Are people already here? he wondered, he could hear disembodied voices coming from behind the door, hesitantly he opened the door, hoping not to draw too much attention to his own arrival. Socialisation was not what chopper had had planned this soon, he just wanted to find his room and unpack in comfortable isolation.

"Luffy ! What have I told you about eating my ingredients?!"
Was the first thing Chopper heard when he entered .What a strange name the voice had said, Luffy?

"It was Zoroo" a voice whined back. Zoro ? Another strange name. God who names their kid Zoro ?

Carefully and as quietly as he could, Chopper places his cases beside the door. Wondering if he should take a peak around the dimly lit hallway. Damnit, If he can just figure out which one is his room.

"Have you two idiots seen the hoover? I can't find it anywhere..." A deeper voice was heard; it sounded scary even. What has Chopper gotten himself into?

With a few deep and calming breaths, he finally peeps his head around the corner. There, stood three people who he assumes must be his flatmates: Some blonde with weird ass curly eyebrows, a green-haired boy and. Why is that boy sitting on the table ? What dreadful manners. Is that a scar on his face ?!

"Like that shit head could eat a week's worth of food!" The blonde snapped , getting a hold of the boy on the table, tugging at his shirt.

" Who are you calling a shithead ?! " The green-haired boy snaps , almost bumping his head on the lower cupboard under the sink in response ; did he think a hoover would be under there of all places ?

And they were roommates (( Zosan ))Where stories live. Discover now
