-:: CHAPTER 1: PARTY ::-

Luffy closed his eyes in slight irritation and let out a sigh as he walked along the paved road in semidarkness with his friend, Usopp. A slight summer breeze ruffling the boy's short dark straight black hair. The air full of pleasant scents that marked the ending of summer as they quietly walked on. Their feet making soft clomps on the sidewalk in the process. It was then that he couldn't help but to glance at the boy next to him in slight disbelief at the words that came from his mouth.

"Oh come on Luffy don't be like that you were the one who agreed to come."

"Only because you wouldn't shut up about it." He replied a bit annoyed at the long nose boy as he averted his eyes from Usopp and onto the surrounding area as they turned off of the main road and onto to what appeared to be a driveway. His eyes surveying the huge hedges that continued to run along what he could only guess to be the edge of the Kaya estate. After all even though he had never been here before he knew it had to be her house as she was the only person in town able to throw a summer blow out bash this huge. The length of the driveway being more than enough proof for him as his eyes sought to find it's end but could not. "How much longer do we have to walk?" He asked a little bit more annoyed as he recalled the fact that they had been offered a ride by one of their classmates but Usopp had turned down the offer with the following words, 'It's not that far we can easily walk there.'

"It's not that much further.. I think.." The other boy's voice clearly devoid of any confidence as they continued walking for a few more minutes.

"Too bad but I believe you forgot to actually think."

Usopp only shrugged off the words as the two walked down the drive way; however, it wasn't much longer before they reached a large iron gate. "I told you it wasn't that much further!" The boy continued on with a small laugh.

"Yeah yeah." Luffy stated rather simply as he watched Usopp just ignore his remark and press a small red button on the right side of the gate.

Their ears were soon greeted by a faint buzz of static and a click before a gruff voice came out crystal clear from the small speaker just above the button Usopp had pressed. "Names please.."

"Usopp and Monkey D. Luffy." The long nose boy said as he answered for both of them.

There was a brief moment of silence before the voice came back. "Please proceed." There was a small click as the speaker cut off which was followed by a loud buzzing as the iron gates slowly swung inward to the Kaya estate and allowed them inside. A slight clang of iron against iron could be heard as the gates shut behind them and was soon followed by a brief silence.

"Really now Luffy just get over it all already.." The other boy stated a bit irritated as they proceeded down the rest of the driveway.

"You know I didn't even want to come in the first place so why should I?" He replied back just as irritated as he remembered the events that had landed him in this exact moment. It had been just like any other summer day when Luffy had just off from his part time job and headed home. Except once he arrived he had found out that his big brother, Ace, was going out of town for a few weeks. Of course the reason unknown to him, and because Ace didn't trust him home alone for that long he had ended up having to stay over at Usopp's. It had already been a few days since the rumors of that big summer blow out bash had spread and everybody was talking about except for him. Of course he loved parties and all that went with them especially the food butt here was just something about this party that made him a bit uneasy or maybe it was just because he was pissed off. So when the date had been revealed Usopp had asked him to go with him but he had naturally declined. However, after so much aggravation from being begged and bothered to go nonstop he had just finally given in to the other boy's demand. Plus if he hadn't gone he would have ended up being all alone at Usopp's house for who knows how long and as much as he was in a bad mood he didn't want to be alone.

Even so he didn't say he'd be happy about going so he had just planned to not enjoy anything and be all angry. However once his eyes had laid upon the huge hedges and then the iron gate everything was changing for he was now a little excited. Though once he realized it he shook his head and tried to shake off his excitement but when he saw the huge house which was more like a mansion he just couldn't help himself. "Man that's huge~!" His hand instantly going to cover his mouth at his blunder but the effort did him no good as it was already too late.

"I told you you'd enjoy yourself. Now let's hurry inside the party's about to start.." It was at those words as they reached the door of the mansion that some of the other students began showing up.

"Yeah I guess.. Man I hope there's some food I'm starving!" Luffy stated as he just decided to give up on being angry and just try to enjoy himself as much as possible. Though when Usopp's face began to show disbelief as the two just stared at each other he couldn't help but to ask what was wrong.

"Geez Luffy apparently you weren't lying when you said you didn't listen to the rumors.." The long nosed sighed as the door was opened for them and they entered inside and walked through the grand entrance. "They said that there's supposed to be enough food to feed the entire school about three times over and still have some left."

Luffy's eyes widening in both disbelief and shock as to how that could have slipped past his ears. "Nani!"

The other boy didn't seem surprised by this reaction at all as he had somewhat expected it, more or less. "Yeah but I can't believe you didn't hear that part of it-"

"Food!" He cried out cutting off the other boy as his eyes almost seemed to sparkle and he dashed past the grand entrance leaving his buddy behind. His nose following the many different and appealing smells. However before he could reach the sight of the food he had entered into what he could safely confirm as the dancing area, because there was a DJ all set up in one corner of the room as well as tons of balloons and a few strobe lights here and there. The area was huge but yet he knew it would be impossible to fit everybody in this room all at once. His eyes scanning over the room as if suddenly expecting the walls to expand but in the process his eyes landed on a small yellow sign with a big black '1' written on it. He tried to think about what importance the sign might hold but before his mind could even try to process it at all his nose once more caught the smell of food and he continued on in it's direction.

It was only after a bit more of running around that he had managed to stumble outside onto the huge patio but along the way he had seen a few more rooms with the same sign as before, but there were all different colors and had different numbers. Luffy's eyes growing wider and the sparkles returning as he saw table after table piled with food. After he had grabbed a plate and started filling his plate with food he quickly sat down and began to stuff his face. However it was momentarily cut short when he was smacked upside the back of his head and it was followed by the following words.

"Damn it Luffy! You straight up left me!"

Luffy barely even registered the blow but at the words he gave Usopp a sideways glance and as he spoke a bit of meat fell from his mouth. "Sowwy fut I vas hunvry.."

The other boy's hands reaching out and roughly shaking him as he replied back. "Bastard! Don't talk with food in your mouth!"

At that Luffy quickly swallowed the food in his mouth before lowering his head apologetically. "My bad." A laugh on his lips however the other boy didn't let up right away and continued to fuss at him for a little longer before he calmed down and proceeded to tell him why he was so upset. Even though Luffy knew it was somewhat his fault he wasn't exactly all ears as he went back to eating and just nodded his head from time to time to act like he was. However when he was listening apparently it had something to do with Kaya's butler bad mouthing him or his father and so he felt compelled to ask why he was acting like it was all his fault but he kept shut. Then with a satisfied burp Luffy just grinned happily as he let his eyes roam among all the people who were now gathered about on the patio. He spotted a few people from some of his classes, and a few extremely popular seniors, among them there was one that truly surprised him.

The first one being a blonde senior with a curly eyebrow by the name of Sanji but often nicknamed 'Love Cook' by the girls for he would cook meals full of love for the girls that he liked. While a bunch of the guys just called him 'Perverted Love Cook' after all he only cooked for the girls. Also from what Luffy had heard this senior didn't care if a girl was currently taken or not because if she struck his fancy he would be sure to chase after her. So, of course seeing him here was no surprise as he was currently trying to hit on a group of pretty girls.

Second was a red headed girl named Nami among the crowd of girls Sanji was currently hitting on. At first Luffy didn't think anything about her being here because he had her in one of his classes and she seemed pretty normal. However the notion that she came here for fun came quickly disappeared as he heard two boys behind him say in hush tones, 'Shit I can't believe Nami actually came.. I still owe her money..' The second boy replying in a similar manner. 'Me too man. Let's get out of here before she sees us..' Then with that the two boys disappeared leaving Luffy a bit confused about Nami in general.

While the one who surprised him was the senior with green hair and three piercings on his left ear who went by the name Roronoa Zoro. The reason for his surprise was because he had heard that while Zoro was popular among the school girls and even a few boys he never paid them let alone anybody else any attention. There was also one rumor that said Zoro preferred to be by himself then with others. Then of course there were a few other rumors but he had never really paid them attention but if what he had heard was true then why did he show up here and now of all places? His eyes continuing to watch his senior for just a bit longer as he now found himself rather intrigued now. However when his senior paused for a moment and then stared directly back at him Luffy felt his body tense up as the senior gave him a slight smile. The sudden smile and direct eye contact making him a little nervous so he was more than grateful when Usopp smacked his arm.

"Oh Luffy! Come on everybody is going back inside.. they said something about Kaya giving a speech to officially start the party.."

"Ah alright then let's go." Luffy said with a small grin as they both got up and headed back inside but before Luffy had even stepped through the door he let his eyes glance back to where his senior had been standing just moments before. A part of him feeling a bit of relief at the fact that the senior was no longer there but then again another part of him couldn't help but to feel a bit disappointed at the empty space. Though all of it came to a screeching halt at Usopp's voice.

"Hey Luffy.. are you alright? I mean don't force yourself to act like your having fun if you're not.."

The words just made the him grin as Luffy realized despite the bad he was happy to have him as a friend. "It's fine, Usopp. I mean at first I didn't want to be here but now it's different now-"

"It was the food wasn't it?" The other boy just asked a bit dryly.

To which Luffy just grinned once more before nodding his head. "Yeah pretty much.." His words trailing off as he thought of the thing with Zoro just now but he didn't want to bring that up just yet. "But right now we need to hurry up before we miss the speech, right?" Those words sending Usopp into a frenzy and Luffy laughing at his friend's reaction as he now stepped back inside and followed his friend back to the grand entrance where the speech would be made.

After gently pushing through the crowd of people before them they finally made their way to the grand entrance where Kaya stood on the balcony. There was a beautiful smile plastered on her face as she started to speak. However, as much as Luffy wanted to listen to her he slowly found his attention drifting back to the thoughts of his senior. Though when she mentioned something about the yellow sign he snapped back just in time to hear her say.

"Normally all of the rooms in the house would be closed and we would all just stay either on the patio or the ballroom but because there are so many people we've opened up other areas of the estate. There are a total of eight places, four of them are inside the house, and the other four are all outside. These main areas are marked with yellow signs with numbers ranging from one to eight. You are all free to do as you please within those areas, within reason. Just be safe and enjoy the party!" To which everybody just cheered as the end of her speech marked the official start of the party.
