Nerd and the beast

The spar

"Ok, so the rules for this fight is simple. Whoever gets knocked out of the ring obviously loses. Not severely hurting or trying to cause fatality to each other. Understand"? We nodded. Kid smirked. "Didn't chicken out on me, nerdy". "How about a water, Goggles"? He nodded. "And what are the conditions"? "If I win.....you have to be nicer to my friend Kobe". He thought about it. "And if I win, you have to help me with my work". We shook hands."Deal"."Deal".
In the back, I heard everyone cheering for kid. I was about to knock him off his pedestal. The right started and I kept banking from his punches. I needed to figure his strategy out.

"Strategy mommy"? I nodded. " You see Kiki, every fighter has their own unique fighting strategy. Your uncle Luffy tends to go into a fight without even thinking about how strong his opponent is. He goes in head first. Your daddy does the same thing. Me, I try and study my opponent's movements. Then I come up with a quick battle plan. And if one small move failed in my retaliation, I had eight more backup moves just for that one move so my opponent couldn't quickly figure out what I was trying to do". "How long did it take daddy to know that"? I thought for a moment. "We'll get to the part of the story later. He didn't figure it out on his own. Neither did your uncle Luffy, aunt Nami, or even the law or chopper ".

"Oh don't be scared to throw a punch back, nerdy. I won't hurt you too bad". I sneered. "Afraid you'll be the next one in line to lose to me like everybody else I fight"? "Not even close". I found out his style. He tends to go head first, him open to behind attacks. I flip up behind him using one hand. When he sees me, I have a pressure point. He growls and punches me. When I fall to the ground I jab two more pressure points. He doesn't seem to be catching on to what I'm doing. I flip up behind him again, and as I'm going down I wrap my legs around him and finish flipping not only myself but him on to the ground while I'm flipping him I hit a few more pressure points. When Iq stand up, I looked down and see that he can't move his body."what did you do"? I smirk. "You'll figure it out". He wobbles up and tried to get to me, but I stand on one finger and throw myself in the air. I bring my for down on his shoulder, causing him to go down. After 10 seconds, I'm declared the winner.
Everyone was surprised. Luffy came up to me excited. "Ebony that was amazing. No one's ever beaten him. The only one who's come close is me and I barely almost made it out"."he definitely was a tough opponent, but not exactly the brightest opponent when it came to fighting technique. His was kind of easy to figure out". "Looks like I have to be nicer, huh"? I smirk. "Think you can do it, Spikes"? "Grrrrr. You'll pay, you damn buzzard". He grumbled and walks away. His blonde hair friend walks up and congratulates me. "Good fight. I'm not surprised he lost". "How so"? "His ego is bigger than his brain sometimes. By the way, I'm killer. The other guy hit is Heat". I smile and their hands. "Wanna be friends"? They look surprised. "Look, one can not have too many friends. Plus, you guys here are the first ones I've had. And you both seem like decent human beings, so I'll take my chances". They smile and agree. I hear a cough and turn, looking at kid glaring at us. I wonder why.

Eustass pov
"You like her don't you"? I slightly blushed. She's tough, smart, and kinda cute. Killer smirks. "He definitely does. It's surprising though. I thought he didn't catch feelings". I growled. Stupid surgeon. "What the hell do you want, Law"? "Just coming to congradulate you on losing to the new girl. I didn't know you liked her". "I Don't". Trafalgar smirked. "You know, for a big snartass, you sure are a complete idiot". I growl."what did you just call me"? "An idiot. Also a smartass, but leave the smart behind". He's getting on my nerves. "
After school let's out, I walk to Killer and heat. They are near my motorcycle. It's a slim black and red Harley with my jolly Roger on it.. While conversing, I see Newbie over at a rusted, beat up pickup. She send to be arguing with a man. I see him get our and throw a bag on the ground. He then leaves. "Hey boss, maybe we should check out what's happening". I grumble. "Not our problem". "But kid, she looks like she may be in trouble". Heat was right. Damn his kindness. "Fine". Besides she won the match. I had to hold up my end. And being nice to her four eyed friend meant being nice to her as well. "Need help, Newbie"? She glares at me, tears in her eyes. I felt a little angry. I have a feeling he caused those.

"Daddy, when did you know you wanted to marry Mommy"? I smirked at my daughter. "Honestly, I knew it was when she first stepped up to me"? She thought for a moment. "Then how come you didn't ask her out if you knew you liked her"? Luffy smiles and laughed.."what's do funny, rubber boy"? "You see Kiki, your dad is what we call a wuss". I growled. "At least it didn't take me 6 years to even propose to my girl, Straw idiot ". He glared. "Hey I'm not an idiot". "Wanna bet on that". I feel my wife's anger. "Would you two morons QUIT IT"!!!We stop. Ebony is currently 8.5 months pregnant. Her powers are currently in a frenzy. Damn her pissed side was hot though. She calms down.

"What do you want Fred"? Why did he come here? For more context, he's my ex. We were in a toxic relationship for 4.5 years. Finally. I got tired of him abusing my brother and I. We moved to loguetown and didn't look back. He managed to find me a few days ago and hasn't left me alone since. "I need a place, baby". "Go to hell". "He growls. "I need to hide". "Not my issue. I'm not with you, I don't give a damn". "You will say I say you're in trouble". I glare. "What kind". "I bet you've figured out you're a legend, huh? Very valuable. You're said to cause destruction to everyone. And like before, no one will believe you ". I shut my eyes and tear up. For the past 4 years, every time I tried to get out of the abuse, no one would listen. They'd blame me. Even cops would dismiss him and his actions cause he's a 'good guy'. Last time a cop dismissed him, Fred made my brother paralyzed.
"What do you want"? "I get a place to stay, and you get me off your back, and your brother is okay". I clench my fists. I agree. He smirks, throws a bag out the window, and drives off. I hate him. I sit on the sidewalk and put my head in my hands. I hear footsteps. I look and see Kid and his gang.
"Everything okay"asked Killer. I sighed and nodded. They were quiet. "So who was that guy"? I breathe in for, then sigh. "My ass of an ex". "How's he an ass"? "Why do you care, spike head"? "I don't. You just look pathetic in that state". I get up and start walking in my direction of home, hoping I can get there before Fred does. I hear a car behind me. "Need a ride"? I smile at killer. It was getting chilly. I get in and and buckle up and show him where my house is. He sits for a moment, then asks about the old bruise on my face. I lie and say I'm clumsy. He looks like he didn't believe it but doesn't question it. "So, is kid always like that"? "Like what"? "Well, your and heat are so nice, and he's a complete jackass". He sighs and nods. "How can you be friends with someone like him"? "We've been through a lot together. We actually liked the same girl at one point". I was surprised. We're pulled up. I saw Fred's car and froze in fear. I ran out, and thanked  killer for the ride. I ran past a passed out Fred to my brother. I asked him how his day was and if he ate. He smiled, going on about his friends that he made and how cool his teachers were. I fixed him some macaroni for dinner. I'm just glad Fred is asleep.
(2 weeks later)
Today was pep really day. While the cheerleaders were hyping everyone up for tonight's game, Coach rayliegh was pacing nervously.
"Okay now time for the important announcements, the people who made our martial arts team. So we have Luffy, Law, Zoro, Killer, Heat, Kid, Sanji, Boa Hancock And Ebony". I look, shocked. Me? Why did they want me? Luffy smiles at me. "Hey buddy, you must be really strong. Only the best fighters get picked. Maybe I can fight you". I smile. I great a Throat clear. "What is it, Goggles"? He smirks. "I'm surprised you made it on the team. I mean, you're pretty weak". "I'm surprised you're head hasn't caved in from an absence of your brain". I hear a snicker from Law. "Watch your tongue, Furroh". "Or what, Bolts for brains"? He growls and walks away. My friends come congratulate me. We go to Vivi's house for celebration. She's rich but nice. I bring my brother along.
