Summary: Ace moves from his old town to start a new life away from the nightmare that was his old life

Note: I don't owe anything and this story is posted in my livejournel account if anyone want to read it tell me and I will post the rest if no one want to I will delete it

This story is poorly written and I didn't want to post it here but my sister insisted so I did

The streets were empty and smoke rose from garbage bins and dark ally's, breathing deeply Ace thought to himself 'from now on he will have to live in this city, finally free and away from everything, away from him'

walking down the street he noticed beautiful neon lights coming from two blocks away, that was the new world district in the grand line city, his new home city now not that he had one before he didn't belong to anywhere and there was no one that wanted him but in this city no one knew him and he can finally get away from his past and start new

entering his new apartment ace looked around it wasn't big only one room, lounge, kitchen and one bathroom, but it was way bigger then where he did sleep before his box, and for Ace this was heaven

the sun raised up and shone its bright light on the world going straight through Ace's apartment curtain less window, waking up cursing Ace decided that he needs to buy curtains and a bed for his back was killing him from sleeping on the hard cold floor, he slept on worse but after sleeping on a bed for three days he experienced the comfortable sleep and he didn't want to go back sleeping on what he did sleep on before, bones and rocks

getting up he decided to take a shower and then go to look for a the job he came to this city for, 'grand line city where everyone's dream came true' or that was what the police officer told him when he handed him the address for the place that was offering him a job, he said that he knew the manger there and he was a good friend of his, he also gave him the address of the apartment that now belonged to him and also he said that he paid for this month's rent, guess he couldn't stand to look at him any longer and wanted to get rid of him and the guilt by sending him to the furthest city away

But Ace was grateful even if they didn't want him there or when they didn't believe him all those years

the job was an easy one only to left some boxes in the factory and his boss Marco was his name was a good person even with his weird hairstyle -Ace thought it was totally cool- that resembled a pineapple, everything seemed to go fine on his first day until some guy tried to be friendly and grasped his shoulders which lead to the guy getting his nose broken and Ace crawling in the corner sitting and holding his head between his legs, shaking and humming a weird song

When Marco heard what happened he rushed to the scene only to find the new guy-Ace- was far away in the corner shaking and singing?

all in all it was a really creepy scene, Marco remembered what did Rakuyo -his friend- said about him, he said that the boy had a very harsh past and he had a little bit of phobia from people, which didn't seem now like little at all, Marco went on to check Curiel's nose then asked everyone to get away from Ace and went to him slowly if he wasn't doing this favor to Rakuyo he wouldn't have haired the boy, now what should he do?

shaking and frightened Ace tried to calm himself by counting to ten like that Doctor said but it wasn't working, his anxiety raised when he felt someone coming closer, but that person stopped a few feet away from him and tried to talk to him Ace didn't hear what was saying but his voice was smoothing and it somehow calmed Ace down

Few hours later Ace was standing outside a convention store waiting for Marco to return with some green tea when he saw a boy shorter than him, with a freaky dumb look, mouth open wide and untamed hair staring at him

the boy made him nervous he was wearing a high school uniform or what it seemed like one, Ace assumed it was one but he wasn't sure he only saw it once before from the basement windows when a couple of kids were passing, he saw a school once also when he tried to run a way but then he got caught by the police and was brought back there

"are you a movie star?" the kid's voice cut through his thoughts bringing him out of his mind, and when he looked at the kid again he noticed that the kid was now looking at him in wonder, he only shock his head not really knowing what a movie star was

"I could have sworn I saw you in a movie' the kid was now frowning his brows and trying to think, he looked funny which brought a smile on Ace's face as he watched him try to figure something out

when Marco came out he handed Ace his green tea and looked at the kid strangely before mentioning for Ace to come with him, when they reached at the turn to his street he heard the kid's voice behind him loudly

"SEE YOU AGAIN, OH AND MY NAME IS MONKEY D LUFFY!"

Ace thought he saw Marco flinch from the kid's loud voice, and this time Ace laughed
