Hello Readers~! This is my 2nd story and I thought of it when I was reminded of the movie "Around the World in 80 Days". Yeah, this lil' story is based on it.
ANYWAYS, enjoy the story and remember to review!
A huge building adorned with gold stands tall in the middle of a city called London.
Inside this so-called building, two men sit face to face. It seems they're arguing about something trivial.
"Alfred, you retard! You can't go around the world in a month or so," Aruthur scowled, fists hitting the table.
"Oh really?" he said, "Wanna bet?". Alfred flashed a brilliant, cocky smile.
Arthur face palmed himself and sighed heavily, "If you can make it around the world in a month or so, I'll admit that my cooking sucks balls. However, if you don't make it, then you'll have to admit you're not a hero. Also, I like your hat cowboy hat so I'll take that too. The bet will start tomorrow, the first of July and end on the 31st at noon."
"OK! I'll be taking you up on that bet then!" Alfred squealed, "I'll make sure I win this!". He got up on his feet and immediately rushed out of the building.
...Stupid Alfred... you left your hat here..
England picked it up and wore it. He stood infront of a mirror and thought to himself, "Hmm.. I look ten times sexier with this hat. Alfred's better off without his hat."
Alfred muttered to himself, "For this trip, I need a lackey, a girl, some Asian guy that looks like he knows kung fu, and transportation", while running through the streets of London.
About 50 feet away, he noticed a Japanese man carrying a bag of ingredients walking on the sidewalk. Excitedly, Alfred ran up to the man.
"Hey Kiku! Do you know any kung fu?" he asked.
"Sorry, but I'm a n-", he shrugged. He got cut off because Alfred assumed that Kiku did know some kung fu. He sighed as he got dragged off by Alfred.
Accompanied by Kiku, they walked the streets, looking for a lackey and a girl.
"Alfred-san, how do you plan to find a lackey and girl?" Kiku asked, "Is there anyone you specifaclly want?"
Alfred laughed heartily with a 'no'. Kiku grew a worried look on his face. As they wandered the twisting streets, the japanese man dropped his bag of ingredients.
"Oh no! My ingredients will be damaged!" he cried silently as he got pulled along, "I hope Yao will forgive me..."
"Woah! They're having a slave auction over there!" Alfred ran over to see the slave.
A tall man was holding a leash tied to smaller, brunette man.
"Ufufu~ Everyone! I'm selling this man for a good price~" he said, "This guy here can cook and clean. Very, very smart ne?"
He yanked the leash. "Toris, are you having fun?" he smiled childishly to the man. He looked at him and tried to hold back his anger out of fear.
"Ivan, why the hell are you doing this?" Ivan pondered that question for a minute and smiled again. Apparently, he didn't want to answer that question.
"I gotta go to the restroom okay? Make sure you don't run off anywhere ne?" Ivan gave a creepy smile.
"That's a nice way to change the subject, bastard" Toris thought.
"Oi you there!" Alfred called out, "Wanna join me and Kiku on an adventure?"
Toris sat there looking dazed, wondering if that man was actually speaking to him.
Alfred walked up to the stage and spoke again, "So.. wanna join us or not? I don't think you'd enjoy being a slave you know".
"But what happens if Ivan finds me g-gone? H-he'll find and k-k-kill us for sure.." Toris stammered in anxiety.
"Pfft, I'm not scared of that fatty", he said as he undid the leash and unlocked the slave. "From now on, you're gonna be my lackey!"
"... In the end, I'm still a slave". Toris died a little on the inside.
The three of them ran off to another part of London.
When Ivan came back, all that was left on the stage was an empty leash and some more slaves near the back.
"Where did Toris run off to? Doesn't he know what will happen if I happen to catch him?" Ivan asked a small teenage boy in a cage, "Ravis?".
The boy looked at him, frightened.
"I-I -d-don't know.."
"In that case, tell me what really happened, Ravis". Ivan's eyes were locked with Ravis', making the poor boy immobilized. he couldn't stand it so Ravis told Ivan everything. Ravis sobbed while telling Ivan that a blonde man with glasses and a Japanese man helped Toris escape and ran off.
Toris, I'm... so.. so.. sorry..
"OK! Now we needs a woman", Alfred exclaimed out loud, "ANY WOMAN WANNA JOIN US IN OUR JOURNEY AROUND THE WORLD?".
Some people nearby stared at them with a pitiful look.
Disheartened, Alfred stopped and grew quiet. Out of the blue, a man stepped out towards them, "Like, hey there you guys. Mind if I like, join you?".
Lithuania's eyes grew big. "Feliks! I thought you were gone..!"
"Pfftt, that Ivan dude, can't like, kick my butt you know", Feliks scoffed, raising his hand to check if he broke a nail. He turned to Alfred, "So dude, can I come with you guys? This place is sooo totally boring".
Alfred was thinking he should let this random, Feliks guy join them.
"Just so you know, my friend's kinda.. how should I put this... 'girly' " Toris whispered in Alfred's ear.
"I am like, so much more g-"
"You act like a girl?"
"Well, at least I got the balls to be a woman"
"Ok! You're our girl then"
"Woot~ But first, you guys need like a makeover or something. That look is soooo last century you know."
"No."
And so, Alfred, Kiku, Toris, and Feliks journeyed off into the distance until they realized that they needed a car. Luckily, Kiku had a car prepared.
"Hey wait a minute..."
"What's wrong Alfred-san?"
"OH SHIT I FORGOT MY HAT!"
"You would've like, looked ugly anyways with or without a hat"
Anyways, the four of them drove happily into the horizon.
Next stop: SPAIN!
