Law's 26th Birthday
Chapter 1 A wonderful morning
Xxxxxxxx
5:00 am
Beep Beep, Beep Beep.
I groaned as an annoying sound woke me from deep slumber.
Beep Beep, Beep Beep.
As the noise continued, I was forced to open an eye and look for the source of the sound. Looking to my right I saw an unfamiliar black object. I cracked open another eye and turned my head to get a better view. It was an alarm clock and it read freakin 5 o'clock. It was round and coated in black paint with my Jolly Roger smiling down on me, it also had my trademark black and white hat resting on the top. I frowned, I didn't remember ever seeing that around here.
Beep Beep.
Oooh that's getting on my nerve. I sat up and hit the alarm clock, not caring where was the off button, just wanting to shut it up. Turns out I was correct in hitting the top, (The furry hat) as it was a button. As soon as the noise ceased I noticed a small note to the side.
Dear Captain, It read
Happy Birthday! Hope you like the alarm clock, now you know why we asked for black and yellow paint. It was Shachi's idea to make it, but my Idea for the hat button and colour theme. Once again, Happy Birthday!
From: Penguin Shachi Penguin and Shachi Shachi and Penguin
Ahh…I remembered now, my Birthday, how old am I…26! As soon as I gathered my thoughts, I knew who was going to get grilled. If Shachi was the one who made it, then he should know why my alarm clock had set off at 5 o'clock in the morning.
I sighed and swung my legs over the bed, getting prepared to change, I couldn't go back to sleep, hell, It's a miracle I could even sleep! I pulled on my most cherished black and yellow hoodie and buttoned my light blue, brown spotted, jeans. I reached for my hat and grabbed at it while trying to slip my feet in my black shoes. All I grabbed was thin air. Immediately looking up, I saw that it wasn't where I usually put it. I blinked a couple of time just to make sure and pulled a face, after all no one would watch a 26 year-old man change and get up at 5 in the morning, would they? I shook my head and started searching for my beloved hat high and low, I even searched under the bed.
My heart skipped a beat when I didn't find anything after 10 minutes of thorough searching. I bit my lip unconsciously and thought back to last night. I remembered being sleepy for the first time in 3 days and putting away my books, then put my hat on the spot I always put it in, so why wasn't it there?
I suddenly remembered the letter with the alarm clock and I stormed off to the mess hall with my Nodachi in hand, determined to seek out the man I was looking for and get my hat back.
