Ace's Hidden Camera: Halloween Terror
Prologue
He sat there on his chair watching the monitors in front of him, the famous prankster in the entire world Portgas D. Ace, this season was going to be a blast, he had managed to call in the most biggest celebrities and big shots that managed to avoid him and he is going to give them a hell of a scare.
"Sir we received a call that our guest is 15 minutes away" a man approached the prankster, "get everything ready and call Rebecca I need to talk to her and get the make up artists" Portgas smirked at his plan, the man nodded and left the room to get Ace's assistant in this show.
His gaze fell back to the screen; he looked at the haunted house they will be filming in, The Marineford Mansion. When he was a little boy Ace and a group of people had rumored that this mansion was haunted when they saw the window open and it didn't help that it was Friday the 13th, yes when he was a child Ace used to scare people with superstition, turned out later on it was a stray cat but of course no one knows the truth.
They had decorated the 'haunted' mansion into a real looking one with actual Halloween decoration; this was this season's theme 'the haunted Halloween mansion'. The crew was starting to hide the camera's and prepare for their upcoming 'guest', he saw Rebecca coming to his room underground where he had monitors that show the dozens of hidden camera's in the hallways and rooms.
To the next monitor he saw the animal training team prepare the animals to be ready, he had a group of black cats, owls, bats, crows and other Halloween related animals. The crew began cleaning up from the inside and making it look as haunted as possible and hiding any traces of Ace.
Adults and Kids, everyone in the entire world seemed to run away when they hear the name Portgas D. Ace, he was known as the world worst and greatest prankster. He calls you then you are in deep shit, his pranks are way over the top but rarely do people file a lawsuit against him, it shows just how manipulative and respected he is.
Fellow pranksters such as one of his best friend, Thatch could not compete with him in scaring or pranking people, and fellow comedian another best friend, Marco cannot make people laugh like Ace does. Others wonder why did Ace choose this path, he came from a wealthy family and lived a prestigious life and went to the best schools ever but the 22 year old choose this as his career.
"You called me?" a voice asked at the door, Ace turned around and looked at the pink haired woman standing. This was Rebecca, Ace's assistant and decoy in this show, and her job is to fool people into thinking that they are going to advertise the spirit of Halloween then she would lead them to their doom.
"Yeah, our lovely guest is coming you know what to do" he stated with a smirk, "yeah I am going to fool them and lead them to the 'room'" she answered with a nod "I have to pretend to be a journalist for the so called experience and behind the scenes for YouTube"
"Okay then everything is ready I believe" he leaned backwards on his black leather office chair, "yes sir, the computing team will hook my microphone to your headphones and we are ready" she stated, with a nod Ace had dismissed her to go outside and receive their guest for their first prank of the season, everything was planned smoothly and accordingly to Ace.
Pulling out his IPhone Ace hooked in his headset and only placed the right side on his ear, he flipped to the apps page dedicated for his shows and launched the app linking to the microphone, soon enough he could hear the voices of the system, he brought the microphone part of Apple's smart headset to his lips and dialed to the make up and stylist artists "guys we have five minutes I want my costume ready and I will be down in a few"
"Okay everything is ready we will wait for you" the stylist replied, Ace was going to be dressed as a human who came back to life and will give his precious guest a heart attack; he had already prepared for the worst case scenario. 30 people to prank, 31 episodes, 1 of them is an epilogue, 1 episode each day from October 1st to October 31st, and filming should end in September 25th.
Looking back to the outside monitor he saw a black car approaching them, immediately people scrambled and began acting normally, Ace grinned and his eyes turned dark "welcome to my house of terror" he said to the monitor as he watched the car park and Rebecca approach his guest that just go of the car.
And this is it for the prologue I hope you enjoyed it and as I had mentioned above, since this is an AU there will be high chances of OOC and the One Piece cast are celebrities and famous people, and they are not connected like in the original story but hey anything is possible in AU. don't forget to leave a review or a suggestions down at the review box. Thank you!
