Portgas D. Ace

(A/N: Based on my experience yesterday)

Your POV

Suffocating, that's what I have been feeling ever since the clock strikes 12 P.M.. The amount of people here was amazing, even young kids would participate in such risky tournament. I looked down at my hands, the cold air didn't make the situation any less enjoyable but seeing all those younger kids defeating their seniors certainly made me smiled. 

Parents shouting for their children to rise to the top, while their coaches smiled at how admirable their students were. Once more, I looked down at my hand, the case that holds my mouth guard was clutched tightly as I tried to ease the anxious away. 

And knowing I'm the only representative for Blue Raven's Taekwondo Club is certainly making my anxious rise to the sky. Not only that, but I'm here alone, without anyone, not even my boyfriend, Portgas D. Ace. 

(A/N: Yes, I changed the club's name, if you don't like it, change it, okay? Okay)

I looked up to my arena, Arena C. Wait, why is the boys going first? That's weird..

"Arena C number 7, that's me but is there a malfunction?" questions rang in my mind, "That's weird.." clutching the case and bag on my shoulder tightly, I seek to find the host of this tournament, Master Shanks. Turning my head around the many arenas, there he sat at the very first one. 

I jogged up to him, and quickly explained what happened. His eyes went wide for a second before ordering all the other instructors, judges and the ones who operated the scoreboards. They were shocked at first but soon followed through with his words as they quickly called upon the contestants to get ready at Arena A. 

I sighed as I looked down at the given guards by Master Shanks as he waited patiently for my turn. He helped me out with my guard as he tightened it so it won't get loose, and I might loose a rib. 

I looked around me to see another girl, wearing a blue body guard, the direct opposite of me which is red. She looked strong, and it made me more and more anxious about it, it wasn't until Master Shanks joked with me about beating her that made me smile. 

2 more rounds before mine, as I sat down and looked at my phone which displayed the picture of Ace and me when we're on our date. "Beat their asses, huh?" I muttered back his words as I smiled at his goofy grin. If only that narcoleptic guy is here, he would be the loudest of them all, I can almost picture it. 

With a chuckle, I looked up. The boy who got injured was still there, and still covering his eyes. I cringed at the memory, his opponent literally kicked him on the face, right in the eyes, resulting his opponent to went up to the finals. 

I looked over to Master Shanks, he was giving me a thumbs up as I chuckled and returned the favor. It wasn't until the judges called upon me, "And your name would be?" he asked as I hesitated for a moment before saying, "(Y/N), sir" he nodded before writing it down beside another name. 

Wasn't there suppose to be another name? Was she not here or was she disqualified? I don't even wanna ask about it as the judges asked me to get ready. I placed the head guard securely on my head as a sigh escaped my lips. "Now all you have to do is aim at her head, okay?" Master Shanks said as I nodded before opening the mouth guard case and slide the uncomfortable rubber in my mouth. 

I looked over to my opponent as we both walked to the right, excitement and anxiety became a sudden mix in me as I bowed down and kept my guard up, she was shorter than me by slight inches but that doesn't mean she can't beat my ass. 

The judge nodded as the referee started the match, instantly I ran up to her and raised my right leg, pushing her down as I closed our distance. My mind went blank as no emotion ran through me as I kept kicking her body and trying to aim her head. 

It didn't do any better when she got 3 points when her leg reached my head, making the guard slightly uncomfortable as I fixed it, keeping my composure I ran up to her and raised my leg as high as I can, hitting her head. I didn't know what happened, I didn't even know if I got any points, since I didn't even look at the boards. 

It wasn't until the first half was done when we were both given a 20 second rest, I looked over to the scoreboard, and it was a tie, 7-7. 

"You can do it babe! That's my (Y/N)!" my head snapped to see the freckled goof standing at the very front line with his phone in his hand, as I assumed he's recording it. With a smile and small wave at him, he gave me a thumbs up. 

I turned back to Master Shanks as he nodded at me, ruffling the head guard slightly as I smiled at him before the referee called up for us. 

As we stood in the middle of the ring once more, the referee started the second half as we each threw our kicks and blocks. I kicked her abdomen, causing her to lost balance and fell, and now I know I just made her pissed off. 

I silently cursed myself for not aiming higher as we each threw our kicks once more until there's a slight chance, making me take it. 

The real aim was to push her out of the ring, but, I aimed a bit too high causing my heel to make contact with her mouth. I pulled back and backed away, using this chance to catch as many breaths as possible. 

The referee started to count, 

1

2

3

4

5

6

He asked if she can continue on but she kept on clutching her jaw as he continued on counting, 

7

8

9

 10

And that was it, she was asked to stand in the middle of the ring as the referee held out his hand towards my side, instantly making me the winner of this match. Guilt instantly washed over me as I took the head guard off and ran up to her, "I'm sorry I'm sorry.." I kept on the chains of apology as she smiled and waved it off. 

After taking the whole guard off, Ace was the first to support me as my right knee started to give up on supporting. "You did awesome babe, I got the whole thing recorded!" he said as I lifted an eyebrow. 

"Ace, when the hell did you arrive?" I asked as he gave me one of his goofy grin, "The second you stepped on the arena, of course" he answered as I smiled. 

"And the winner of this match goes to, (Y/N)!" my name was announced as I smiled and walked over to the stage, the gold medal was placed around my neck as Master Shanks smiled down at me. "Your instructor, Master Rayleigh will be so proud of you" he said as I chuckled before thanking him. 

I ran over to my opponent as she congratulated me as I hugged her and apologized once more, causing her to smile since she kept on clutching her jaw. I ran up to Ace as he extended his arm to me, "Since this is your day, how about we do things..." he stopped as he looked over to my reddened knee, "Like watching a movie or cuddles?" he offered as I chuckled and looped my arm around him. 

"How about we do both?" a kiss was planted on the crown of my head as we exited the hall, "Anything for you, my fighter of a lover" he joked as I chuckled at him, "But before that, how about you take a bath?" he teased as I lightly punched his arm, making him gasp dramatically. 

"Even when you're exhausted, you're still strong, you know?"
