Oooh how exciting this is *Q*
This is my first fanfiction, being a fan of reading other stories, I thought 'Why not I make one, I have all these crazy idea's, why not put them to good use?' And so, this was born.
Just gonna warn you, I am an Ace fan, not a completely drooling on the floor fan, but one that cried for days once he died. Then they had to throw in the child-hood ;~; So this story is mainly going to be about Ace and Luffy~!
Also, I hope that this hasn't been done before...The idea popped into my head while watching One Piece and without knowing it I ended up writing it down.
This is all written off from the back of my mind, so if there are any mistakes I make, Please message it and I will fix it as soon as possible (grammar aswell~!)
NOTE: Luffy is going to be OOC here, and it is intentional. Ace however I'm trying to keep in character.
I speak too much...
ONWARDS WITH THE STORY!
I do not own One piece, If I did, Ace dieing would NEVER have happened ;~;
He was standing at a grassy cliff, over looking a beautiful wide sea. He had no idea where he was, or how he got there, all he recognized was a small boy with a strawhat placed on his head, laying face down onto the ground, lying next to him.
Without even knowing it, he hit the little boy on the head with his fist.
"How long are you going to keep crying like that?" What? He just felt himself talk, though the words never came to his head. He looked down on himself to see that he was staring at a child's body.
"All the treasure we hid in the forest is gone, Sabo didn't use it in the end..." There was a long pause. "I think I'm okay with that."
The young boy next to him started talking, obviously crying at the same time, trying to hide his tears. "Ace...I WANT TO GET STRONGER!"
He turned towards the boy that started to grip with hat tightly. "And stronger...and stronger and stronger...and stronger and stronger and stronger and ...stronger and stronger and stronger and stronger! And then even stronger still!"
He continued staring at the boy, not even making fun of how ambitious the young boy was. Finally, the boy started to talk again in a stutter.
"Then I'll be able to protect anything! I won't have to lose anyone anymore...! You've got to promise me.."
The boy gave up on trying to hide his tears, a wailed out. "Don't ever die Ace..."
"Huh?"
Ace sat up quickly from his bed and flung off his sheet covers. His hand reach up to his head, stroking his fingers through his hair sighing, and laying back down.
"It was that dream again.." He mumbled to himself.
The dream of looking over the a cliff, having the same conversation over and over again, always ending with that last sentence.
"Don't ever die Ace..."
For some unknown reason, those last words stung, repeating itself over in his head. The voice sounded way too much like Luffy. Also, it brought up another name..'Sabo.' He kept thinking over all the people he has met in the past, and couldn't think of anybody with the name Sabo. Luffy might know. Slightly laughing to himself about thinking the fact that Luffy would actually know something made me smile, completely forgetting the worries going over his mind before.
Rolling over to see the alarm clock next to him, he sighed lifting himself off the bed and grumbled, walking out of his bedroom to the kitchen to make coffee. On the way there he sighted Luffy, hanging off the cough upside down watching TV with glowing eyes. Ace smiled to himself, wondering how one person could be so fantasized over a TV.
"You know Lu, If you keep sitting like that, you'll get a headache later."
Luffy stared at his brother before throwing him his signature smile, not moving from his spot. "Morning Ace!" He shouted loudly, a little giggle in there.
After making his coffee, he sat next to his brother, flopping without a care onto the the couch sighing. "Not too loud Luffy...My head is killing me."
"Out drinking all night?" Luffy asked, not taking his eyes off the TV.
"No Lu, I was with you all night. I just had a nightmare."
Luffy seemed intrigued by this, sitting up, shaking his head a little and staring at his older brother like he was some kind of alien. "You've never had a nightmare before."
"I have. I just haven't told you."
Luffy pouted. "Someone's moody."
Ignoring his brother as he glared at him, He suddenly remembered wanting to ask Luffy something."Oi, Luffy. You ever heard of someone named Sabo?" he asked, as Luffy fell back onto the cough again using his hands as a pillow.
"Sabo...Sabo..." He muttered to himself, clearly burning a few brain cells trying to think."Nope!" He smiled. "Never heard of 'im."
"Hmph..." Ace sighed sipping his coffee slowly. Damn. That dream was going to be on his mind all day.
He finally got off the couch, his younger brother's stare on him, flung a jacket over him and walked out the door, not saying a word. He really needed to clear his mind.
SO~ First chapter done, It was short I know, But I wanted to see if anyone actually liked it first so I could decide to carry it on. Just so you know, none of the dramatic's (as I like to call them) have happened yet, but surely to come soon. Thanks for reading and please Review!
