Prologue: A Rainbow in the Clouds
It had been a normal day on the Grand Line until a Marine ship docked at the prison carrying three members of the Baroque Works, a villainous group led by the treacherous pirate warlord, Sir Crocodile. Normally, this would have been all well and good, seeing as how Sir Crocodile himself and his top members had already been imprisoned. However, these newly captured members instigated a jail break, only two of the members staying behind. Sir Crocodile and 'Mr.1'.
Getting ready to make his own escape, Mr. 1, a large and solid man, looked to his superior. "Crocodile, sir-" To his surprise, his superior was sitting leisurely against the prison wall, lighting a cigar. "Sir?"
Sir Crocodile chuckled, his erratic breath effecting the cigar smoke. "Go ahead. I don't really feel like escaping." Even though the sand-man was dressed in prison clothes, he still looked every inch like the dignified warlord he had been.
Mr. 1 was torn. Should he escape, or should he remain loyal and stick with his leader? As he was making this decision, a rainbow of colors circled in the clouds above them. This rainbow sparkled down on both the men, transforming their clothes. Mr. 1 was dressed as a superhero while Crocodile was dressed as a pirate king. However, it did not stop there. The sparkles lingered around Crocodile and shimmered until his body flickered as they did. Then both the sparkles and Sir Crocodile was gone.
Author's Notes
I absolutely hate how short this prologue is, but I felt it was appropriate to cut it off there. Don't worry, my future chapters will have much more substance to them. this is based off of the chapter pages 359-413 If you feel you were spoiled by this little part, it breaks my heart to tell you that I don't really care too much. Not really, but whatever. It's not like it's a big spoiler anyway.
Anyway, I'll upload the next part once I've typed it out, which will either be later tonight or tomorrow. Until then, this has been Elf. Ta.
