Just Call Me, Master
A/N: So I am now completely hooked and in love with the pairing AceLU ( Ace and Luffy-One Piece) it's like ridiculous. You should see my phone, its like 85% pics of those two. Like honest to god that are perfect together. I'm like totally obsessed with pairing brothers together (read my profile and you'll understand)
Disclaimer: Nope I don't own One Piece or it's characters. I believe it belongs to some guy named Oda. Google it.
Enjoy. Remember to review.
Prologue: Just call me, master
'Where am I' a young boy thought to himself. He reached up to rub his head, but was stopped by the handcuffs secured tightly around his wrist. 'Oh, yeah,' he remembered now. 'My crew was captured by these guys' he didn't remember who exactly had captured them.
And speaking of crew, where was his? The room was too dark to see around. "Hey, hey" he called out, hoping that one of them was there. "Zoro, Nami, Sanji" his eyes darted back and forth in the darkness. Still no one answered. "Usopp, Chopper, Robin, Frankie, Brook" Just silence. 'Well looks like it's just me' he thought to himself. ' I hope they're okay'
'Man I'm bored and hungry' he jumped up slightly 'hope they have lots of meat here. That'd be nice'
Time passed by and the young prisoner fell asleep. His snores echoing in the dark room. A light turned on, brightening the room slightly enough so a person could see around it. The sudden change was noticed by the boy and he woke up. His eyes squinting in the light. 'Finally some light, now let's see what we have here' his eyes roamed the room. No signs of his crew but he wasn't alone. In the very front of the room there was a chair...more like a thrown. And on it sat a man who's face was blocked by the hat he was wearing.
He sat there in silence. Wearing nothing but black shorts and black boots. His upper body bare. His skin slightly tanned and his body lean and muscular. He wore a beaded red necklace around his neck. And there was a tattoo on his arm. His hat was orange with another red beaded necklace wrapped around it, with two smileys at the front. Two orange strings came down along the hat and was connect by a large medallion. His face was covered by the hat he was wearing so there was no way to tell what he looked like. He had black hair that stopped around his neck. He sat tall and proud, his legs folded against each other and his arms resting on the seat.
"And who might you be," he sounded younger than expected. His body looked like it had been through hell and back, but his voice was light and sounded amused. It was a voice that would belong to a young person, one who liked to have fun yet knew his limits. It sounded friendly, nonetheless.
"Luffy" the boy replied "Monkey D. Luffy" Under the hat, the man's face expression changed. He cringed and took a slow gulp. But seeing that the boy didn't notice he relaxed and took a sigh in relief. "Hey got any meat here," Luffy asked with a smile on his face. "Come on, there's got to be meat here. Everyone likes meat." He jumped up in down in excitement.
'Has he forgotten he was taken prisoner?' the man thought to himself. He gave a slight and amused laugh at Luffy's remark. "But not everyone likes meat. There are vegetarians." Not that he was one.
"Vegetarian" Luffy spat the word like it had a bad taste. "Bleh, never eating meat. What kind of life is that." He shook his head at thought of it 'horrible way to live'. "So who are you anyway?" Luffy asked leaning his head down trying to see under the man's hat.
"You will call me master" the man spoke. Luffy tilted his head, "master? Why would I call you master?" The man chuckled and stood up. He walked toward Luffy, his face still hidden under his hat. Stopping in front of Luffy he leaned down so he was at the boy's face.
He took Luffy's face in his hands and lifted it up. "Well I own you know. Therefore you will call me master". A smirk crept across his face as Luffy's face twisted in disbelief.
"But I don't want to be your property. I don't want to belong to you," he shook his head in refusal. The man laughed at the remark. "Who said you had the choice? You can't refuse".
"Oh yeah" Luffy said "And why is that?" The man smiled, moving his hand from Luffy's neck to the top of his hair. "Because I may or may not know where the rest of your crew is".
That caught his attention, "what did you do to my crew", his voice rose with anger. But his hair being pulled made him wince. "Don't raise your voice at me", the man said angrily his grip on Luffy still tight. "You will give me respect".
The grip on his hair was painfully tight. Luffy did his best not to cry, 'this guy is scary' he thought to himself. 'But if he knows where my crew is, I'll have to go along with it'. Giving an annoyed huff he went, "yes".
The grip on his hair was loosened, not by much, the grip was still tight. "Yes, what?" Luffy looked at him with a confused look. Again the grip on his hair was tightened and he choked back a tear. "Yes what" the man asked again. His voice didn't sound angry. It sounded amused as Luffy's face kept twisting and turning in confusion.
Luffy gasp to himself, ' wait so he wants me to'. Sighing to himself he lifted his head up and replied "yes master". The grip on his hair was released and he dropped to the floor. "Good boy", the man, who was now his master said. "Now get up and follow me"
Luffy stood up as the man walked towards the door leading to the outside of the room. "Well come on, I don't have all day" The man said unlocking the door. "Anyway you won't find any meat sitting in here".
That made Luffy jump up in excitement "meat. Yay!" He quickly jumped up and ran to the guy. Well more like hobbled towards him; the fact his hands and feet were bound together mad it hard to move. But if meat was involved he'd do anything to get it. Even swim through an ocean and he couldn't even swim.
The man smiled to himself, "you haven't changed at all". Luffy was jumping and down in excitement, "huh. What's that suppose to mean?" The man shook his head, "don't worry about it. Just continue to call me master and things will work out fine for you".
He placed a hand on top of Luffy's hair. Luffy cringed, thinking his hair was going get pulled yet again. But to his shock and relief it wasn't. The man simply ran his fingers through his hair and patted his head. He unlocked and opened the door, stepping outside into the hall.
Luffy waited for a moment, careful watching the man. He had a tattoo on his back, a purple cross with a purple skull on it. To Luffy's amusement it had a white beard on the skull. It made him want to laugh but another tattoo caught his attention. ASCE, the S was crossed out, but something about that tattoo looked familiar in a way.
"Hurry up" the man huffed, his voice still calm and relaxed but it held an agitated tone as well. "I'm come," Luffy called out doing his best to hobble along after the man. If there was meat involved he wouldn't mess up his chances.
And the man knew where his crew was. So Luffy would do his to stay on his new 'master's' good side. Plus there was meat just waiting for him to eat.
A/N: So that's pretty much that. Good...bad...decent? You tell me. Next chapter will (hopefully) have more character and plot development than this one. Remember to review people. I will hunt you down if you don't. Plus if you don't, you won't get to see what happens with Luffy and his new master.
Oh and side note-I have horrible grammar. Don't rub it in.
Til next time ARM0315 is out =)
