Another World Vol.2(One Piece Fanfic)

Chapter 3:Labyrinth+Encounter

3rd Person POV
Katakuri and Meera were passing through the Coloring Forest once again.
They had already left Kingdom Plutia.
The guards had gone anxious after the discovery of the Fox God going to a coma.
This was a huge shock to Camery as well.
The security had risen up by ten fold and was barely even making people leave.
Luckily Meera's Stealth had come handy at this point.
Or else Katakuri had to take the hard way.
They were walking through the forest when Katakuri asked.
"Where are we going?"
"Kingdom Zofear."Meera replied.
"What business we have there?"
"Nothing much,my friend lives there so I wanted to give them a visit and I also want to avoid suspicions on Kingdom Plutia so we will come after it's settled down,worst case scenario the tournament's schedule would be expanded."Meera answered once again to Katakuri's question.
"I sense something below us."Katakuri said.
Meera looked at Katakuri in disbelief,she was making a face that said:Are You Serious?
"If what you said is true than it's a Labyrinth."Meera answered.
"Why do you think it's a Labyrinth?"Katakuri asked since he had long heard about Labyrinths and Dungeons.
Labyrinths are a place that are filled with monsters.
It's a maze that cannot be cleared easily.
Once the Labyrinth Manager dies,all the people except Magic Beasts are teleported out of the Labyrinth automatically and it will collapse.
Dungeons are like Labyrinths but are different.
They have floors which have different Magic Beasts and get stronger by each floor.
A low level Dungeon has 20 floors,medium level Dungeon has 50 floors and high level Dungeon has 100 floors.
"So are we entering?"Katakuri asked as if it's a waste of time.
Meera thought for a second and answered.
"...Yes."
Katakuri didn't know why she wanted to enter it but he didn't ask.
Because he also wanted to enter the Labyrinth.
He had a feeling that he will encounter something or someone.

Somewhere else a boy and a woman are walking in the Coloring Forest.
"Ahhh~,I am so bored."the boy said.
"Shut it,Straw Hat,we are almost there."the woman said.
They are Luffy and Alice.
They had been going for a whole month to arrive at Kingdom Plutia.
They also stayed at Kingdom Zofear.
And now they are finally about to reach their destination.
However...
"Hm?"Alice looks at the ground and then stares at Luffy.
Luffy does not notice the stare and keeps on going.
"Hey,wait right the-"before Alice could finish,Luffy falls into a pit.
"AHHHHH!!!"Luffy yells in shock as he falls down into the dark abyss........and right into the Labyrinth.
"Dammit."Alice clicks her tongue as she also jumps into the pit.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Katakuri is having a bad day.
He is lost.
Completely lost.
Meera has disappeared.
And now he is the only one in the maze.
If only he could fin-
Katakuri looks behind to see a hole appearing on the wall.
He stares at it.
Suddenly,someone comes out of the hole.
That person was wearing some kind of cloak with the hood on.
The person got up and looked at Katakuri.
They stared at each other for 15 seconds,studying each other.
Then the person in the cloak said.
"Umm......Hello?"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meera is walking in the Labyrinth,her face looked as if she had ran a marathon.
Katakuri had disappeared.
Funny,she can almost assume that he came with the same words.
She told him to keep an eye on her.
But he must have looked away somewhere else as she now could not find him at all.
The Labyrinths are very tricky.
They can mess up anyone's sense of direction or eyesight.
Even if he could sense her or anything else that doesn't mean he can outsmart a Labyrinth.
He must have been tricked by a mirage.
But right now that was not the point.
She needed to find the Labyrinth manager.
Suddenly,a hole appeared in front of Meera.
She saw as a boy wearing a Straw Hat came out of it.
He got up and looked at Meera.
They stared at each other for 15 seconds(Deja Vu?).
Then he said with a goofy grin.
"Oh!,Hi there!"
He looked.......energetic.

Sorry for another long wait and short chapter.
I think I am going to be uploading short chapters from now on since I have school.
I seriously can't pay much attention to the story.
So I thought why not cover the story bit by bit.
So now I thought of uploading small chapters.
Thank you.
