Hello! I bumped up this fic I did a while ago so other readers could read something different than the really long stuff people have been posting lately...So...enjoy I guess!
The men's names were Kelvin and Kraven. They were both tall, fair-skinned young marines who had wives, children, and friends who were proud of them. It had been two weeks since they received the paper giving them this honor; the honor to deliver the Pirate King to the executioners.
No one knew what happened... Shortly after Super Rookie Monkey D. Luffy became the Pirate King, he turned himself in.
Kelvin was there that day. A thin and gangly figure showed up at the entrance of a Marine HQ. Kelvin and twenty other marines went out to greet him, only to find out it was the notorious criminal...but...he seemed different. All the marines knew that the Strawhat Pirates disbanded shortly after their captain became the king of the pirates, but no one thought he would be in this horrific of a state. His clothes were tattered and worn and his head was uncovered. That unsettled Kelvin the most. Who was Strawhat Luffy without his Strawhat? He seemed much paler and out of breath than usual, which was odd for a twenty-five year old man. The one thing that did stay the same, however, was his signature horrifyingly huge grin. All twenty-one of the frightened marines poised their pistols, knowing that it wouldn't do any good, but Strawhat just stood there, laughing his ass off.
"What do you want, Strawhat?" Kelvin asked from the crowd. Strawhat ceased his laughing and motioned toward the HQ with his head.
"Oh, I just came for the meat, I heard it's awesome here." Even Strawhat's voice sounded different. It sounded raspy and breathless with all the panting he was doing. Kelvin became annoyed and shouted,
"WE KNOW YOU AREN'T STUPID ENOUGH TO COME HERE FOR THE MEAT! KNOW TELL US WHAT YOU WANT OR WE WILL IMPRISON YOU!"
Strawhat cocked his head and a question mark popped out of it.
"Eh, I'm not stupid?" He scratched his head. "That's weird, people have called me stupid ever since I was little..." Strawhat looked up at Kelvin with a wicked smile.
"But perhaps I am 'that stupid' I'll trade myself in for the meat...got it?"
All twenty-one of the guns dropped to the ground at the same time. The metallic sound of the impact rang throughout the HQ, signifying the capture of the infamous Strawhat Luffy.
Kraven was also in that HQ on that faithful day. As the marines guided Strawhat through the halls, all of the workers they passed halted whatever they were doing mid-task and gawked at the once frightful pirate totally in the marines control. Strawhat was led into the kitchen where Kelvin shouted,
"OI! COOKS! Bring this man our entire stock of fresh meat!"
Kraven, being the head cook, obediently nodded and rushed to work. All that could be heard in the mess hall was the sound of pans banging and knives slicing. As Kraven brought out the first course, he could see Strawhat becoming difficult. He was shouting something at Kelvin. He was about to call the head, but stopped when he overheard the conversation.
"WHAT'S A BANQUET WITHOUT MUSIC?! OR ANY TALKING AT ALL!? IT'S A GHOSTTOWN HERE!"
Kelvin slammed his fist down on the table.
"Mugiwara Luffy, all we agreed on was that you would receive meat. That was ALL we agreed on, hear?"
Strawhat sighed angerly, then stood up.
"Then I guess I'll have to sing..."
Kelvin and the other marines watched as Strawhat gobbled up the meal, grabbed the rectangular plate and a spoon, and started pretending to play it like a violin. He tapped his feet in an out-of-time beat and started singing, (or was it screaming) Bink's Sake.
"Yohohoho! Yohohoho! Yohohoho! Yohohoho,
Yohohoho! Yohohoho! Yohohoho! Yohohoho!"
The cooks stopped cooking. The marines stopped marining... They all stared at the psychotic show that Strawhat was putting on.
"Binkusu no sake wo, todoke ni yuku yo!
Umikaze, Kimikase, namimakase!
Shio no mukou de, yuuhi mo sawagu!
Sora nya, wa wo kaku, tori no uta!"
Suddenly Strawhat collapsed on the ground, panting like a dog in the summer. The marines all rushed around him.
"I guess...pant pant...I've grown too...pant pant...energetic for my body...pant."
Kelvin and Kraven lifted up Strawhat by the armpits and carried him to his cell. The cell was dank and a quadruple-lock, so Strawhat wouldn't be able to escape. The last thing they heard before they left the cell room was a much softer,
"Sayonara minato, Tsumugi no sato yo...
DON to icchou utao, funade no uta...
Kinpa-ginpa mo shibuki ni kaete...
Oretacha yuku zo, umi no kagiri..."
