Hello, my name is Nichlas Darling Rasmussen. I am just a normal guy of the age of 19 from Denmark. I am Autistic and was diagnosed in the year 0f 2010. I am also a fan of One Piece and have followed it since 2001. Why am I telling you this? Cause this is my story on the Grand Line.
I was about to read the newest chapter of One Piece when it happen. I was alone home in the middle of the day since I couldn't handle school for the second time this year. My mother and father had gotten a divorce the year prior so I was still pretty down. I had just been to my doctor yesterday and she told me that I probably should lose some weight. Hey, I understand that I am a little chubby (With a weight of 117 Kilograms) but thanks to my height of 1.9 Meters wasn't it such a big problem in my opinion. I sat in front of my laptop and started to read when it went high wire on me.
"What!" I said. I took my phone and was about to call my father when a black symbol appeared on the screen. A pair of dark wings, a long tail and a head on a long neck that together took the shape of a dragon. Mesmerized, I just looked at the symbol till it suddenly jumped out of the screen and grabbed me. I was shocked as it dragged me inside the screen and into oblivion.
When I woke up was I in an alleyway with half a moon above me.
"Nrrggh what happen?" I questioned myself. I then noticed that something fairly heavy was on my stomach. I lifted my head and saw a fruit. Grim looking, the fruit was the size of a melon and had what appeared to be black scales with crimson markings. I held it up and looked at it a while before I hear shouting.
"He is over here!" shouted someone. I looked past the fruit and saw a mob run past the end of the entrance of the alleyway. I wasn't sure what was going on but I did saw that those guys were armed to the teeth so I figured it was best to hide. I looked around and saw a door close to me so I decided to enter. What I didn't know is that I was already being watched by a shadow.
When I was inside figured I it was a kitchen. I suddenly noticed that I was pretty hungry.
"Good timing" I told myself and put the fruit on the table. I went to the fridge and looked inside. Empty. I looked a little around for a cabinet but there were nothing. I sighed until I remembered the fruit. I looked at it a while before I grabbed a big knife and went for it. It looked like it would be a tough nut so you figure I was surprised when the knife went through it like a hot knife through butter. The inside was a crimson red like blood. I cut up the fruit and took a bite.
"UAGH" I said as I spit it out. It tasted like shit! As I tried to remove the taste from my tongue (Unsuccessful) I thought about how such a horrific fruit could exist. Suddenly growled my stomach pretty loud and I realized how hungry I where. I began to eye the fruit a little until I gave up.
"Shit…" I said before I digged in again. After a couple of minutes was it eaten and I was full.
"Jesus that was disgusting" I told myself. Suddenly felt I something long hitting me on top of my head. I crouched down and held my head in pain.
"That hurts like hell!" I shouted as rubbed my head. Suddenly felt I something coming towards me. I don't know how but it was like all my senses slowed down and allowed me to absorb what was happening. I felt it. My assailant stood behind me and swung his long weapon at my head. I could feel where it would land and I knew the danger of being still. I readied myself and would have dodged it if it weren't for one problem… I was too slow.
Slam!
The weapon connected and the pain intensified.
"AAAUUU!" I shouted.
"Where is the fruit!?" shouted a feminine voice. I was so surprised that I forgot the pain and looked back. Standing there ready to swing her staff was a familiar orange haired girl. She was about to swing when I almost screamed "Na… NAMI!"
She stopped her attack and we looked shocked at one another.
"Excuse me!?" she said, shocked over the fact that I knew her name. "How come you know my name!?"
I was too shocked to speak. How come a character from my favorite manga appeared before me? I tried thinking about it but something caught my attention. A guy. Just a random thug stood in the doorway and aimed his gun at Nami's back. She hadn't noticed him. Then everything went slow-motion. The gun clicked and Nami turned around as she noticed him but she wouldn't make it. I didn't know what to do when I suddenly kicked her ankle. She fell and the gun fired. The shot missed by a hair and hit a pot instead. I quickly got up and grabbed the knife. With a quick swipe of my arm sent I the knife flying and it lodged itself into the guy's shoulder.
"ARRGH!" screamed the guy as he dropped the gun and fell to the ground. Both me and Nami looked astounded at the squirming guy until I snapped out of it and went to Nami's side.
"Are you ok?" I asked as I held out a hand. Nami snapped out of her astonishment and looked at me. Unwillingly, she took my hand and I helped her up. She quickly distanced herself from me and held her staff like she was going to attack.
"Ok, who are you and how do you know my name!?" she question almost menacing. "ANSWER ME!"
I held up my hands and told her "I-I don't know how to say this right but my name is Nichlas!"
"Nichlas?" she said and looked like she was thinking about if she knew that name. "Never heard of you!"
"Please!" I almost screamed as she threatens me with the staff. "I know it is suspicious! Please bear with me till we get somewhere safe!"
Suddenly a gunshot sounded and the pot was hit again. Both me and Nami looked towards the door and saw another guy standing over his wounded friend with a gun in his hand. Nami quickly looked at me and nodded before saying "Follow me!"
She ran into the next room and I quickly followed. In there was a stairway to the roof so we quickly ran up it. When we were on the roof ran Nami towards the edge and jumped to the other roof. She looked back and called out "Jump!"
"No way!" I shouted back. I knew I wouldn't make it.
"It's your only chance!" Nami shouted back. I sweated as I looked at the distance between the two buildings. Suddenly came another gunshot and I looked back. Running towards me were several men and women with swords and guns in hand. In that moment I just felt like 'Fuck it'. I leapt with all my might and actually reached the other side.
"What the hell…" I quietly said as I looked down my body. I then noticed that Nami was running without me and the mob still was after us. I swear to god I should had ran more back home.
I was exhausted. I have never run as much as I did that night. They chased us over the rooftops for some time till we ended up in a dead end.
"There is no way out!" said Nami. We had ended up on a roof that was cut off by its three neighbors. The mob was just around the corner so we couldn't go back. I looked at our situation when I noticed a window.
"There!" I said and pointed at it. Nami looked and we ran to it. It was at least 2.5m up so we couldn't reach it.
"How are we getting up there!?" asked Nami. I went to the wall and cupped my hands.
"Here. I'll give you a lift" I told Nami. She nodded and I lifted her up. When she was inside reached she her hand out to lift me up.
"Take my hand!" told Nami. I looked at the hand and shook my head.
"I'm too heavy" I told her. "Go!"
Nami looked almost pleading at me a second before going inside. I looked at the window while thinking about how I was going to hold off our hunters.
Bang!
A gun was fired and I felt pain in my shoulder. I looked back as I fell around and saw they already were here. I leaned myself up the wall as they closed in. The only thought that went through my head was 'Shit' as the pain pulsed and a lone tear fell. I guessed I was going to die. One of the men ran towards me with a sword held high and I closed my eyes, accepting my fate.
Smack!
When I heard that sound opened I a single eye before they both opened up. Standing over the now knocked out guy was Nami who looked at me with a mild angry look (Yes, she can be mild angry).
"Nami…" I said. She still stared me with the same expression and asked "Don't be so ready to die"
Those words went through me like electricity. I was ready to die? I was ready to throw away my life? As those thoughts ran through my head charged another thug Nami. She noticed this and quickly swung around. Smack! The guy was down. Three more guys charged Nami as the others loaded their guns. Nami fought back the best she could and knocked out two of them but the third was a little more persistent. Suddenly he swung his sword unexcitingly and cut Nami's side.
"NAMI!" I screamed when I saw this. She screamed. She screamed out in pain as she fell to her knees. I could then hear clicks of guns. The rest of them were ready to fire. I barely remember what then happen just that I ran. I ran with all the might my legs could muster. I closed in on the guy who cut Nami and I don't know how but… I punched him.
POW!
He was sent flying into some of his companions and knocked them out cold. The rest of them changed their target to me and fired. The bullets flew and should have hit me but I dodged them. It was like time slowed down again like when Nami tried to knock me out but my body could somehow move fast enough to slip past the bullets and move in on them. My body pulsed, the blood rushing through my veins and my muscles stirring. I didn't notice it then but my body transformed itself while I closed in on them. I grew in size rabidly and my skin shredded to reveal black scales with crimson markings. A tail grew longer behind me and a pair of dark wings sprouted out of my back but I didn't notice. The only things I knew that moment were rage! Fury! And a lust for blood! These three things darkened my vision. When I was close enough swung I around and sent all of them flying with my new tail.
Slam!
I had defeated them but I weren't ready to accept victory yet. The rage and fury hadn't calm down and my transformation was complete.
"RRRAAAAUUUU!" I roared fiercely. I had become a ginormous dragon with black scales. My head was blunt and crimson markings covered my body from my long neck to the tip of my whip-like tail. Nami just looked at my massive figure with a mix of fear and shock. Not satisfied sniffed I the air, trying to find a new opponent. Then the smell of four strong opponents crossed my nostril. As I let out a roar could I feel it! The hunt was on.
