LazyConfectioner here~ A short drabble and prequel to my other story "I'm Terrified of Flying". Today's prompt was 'There are three children sitting on a log near a stream. One of them looks up to the sky and says...' As an inspiration source I use writing prompts, if you have an idea and want to share with me be my guest! There may be grammatical mistakes, I'm not a native english speaker. Please review, positive or negative, it helps to improve myself. Enjoy!

It was an unusually hot midsummer day at . The three siblings were hunting for dinner and setting new traps, just a daily routine. When it was lunch time, indicated by Luffy's natural-stomach-clock, the siblings sat on a log near a stream cooling in the shades. They caught fish from the river quickly and grilled them. While Sabo was still nibbling on his second fish, the D. brothers were gobbling over a pile of fish like beasts. Sabo sighed at his brothers antics, in the beginning of their living together it was fun to watch them eating, finding entertainment was difficult in the forest but after seeing it many times it became boring and sometimes a little bit disgusting (depending on the food they ate). Fortunately the eating 'race' finished soon enough with two small full bellies and Sabo was able to eat calmly and normally. During their time together he learned to guard and hide his food from the two vacuums.
After their lunch with triple sized-watery-sweet berries as desserts, the three siblings were now found relaxing on the same log. They had still some time before starting to hunt again, their crocodile preys always went to nap between 1-3 pm in a place out of their reach. Thankfully time passed quickly as they talked about their dreams, future ships and crew mates which later skipped to deciding on which new prank to do on Dadan and then decorating Ace's face who fell asleep mid discussion due to his narcolepsy, fortunately Luffy always carried a black marker with him in case of emergency.
After the mini-fight Ace threw to defend his pride as older brother and trying to scrub off the marker, the two elder stand up to continue hunting and before trying to drag Luffy as the bait they stopped by the loud voice of said brother.
"I want to eat bird meat for dinner!"
The younger D., still sitting on the log, was looking at the sky, drool leaking through from the corner of his mouth. Even though he just ate he was hungry again.
"Ace, I want bird meat." whined Luffy.
"Not now Luffy, we need to get going or no dinner tonight!" said Ace with a stern voice and Luffy snapped immediately. Food always worked with Luffy, even as food vs food.
"We can get you bird meat sometime later Luffy, don't worry."
"Yay, Sabo is the best brother!" with that said he went ahead, running deep in to woods.
"Oy Sabo! You're spoiling him again." Ace never liked the way how Sabo spoiled Luffy. He wanted Luffy to learn that he can't have what he wants always. This wish of Ace was proved absolutely wrong when Luffy set sail.
"You're worrying to much Ace. I'm sure he'll forget about it by tomorrow."
Ace could only hope, Luffy had a good memory on food, he was even capable of counting missed meals when he was asleep. Ace followed his siblings in to the woods unaware of the future events that would make him traumatised forever.
