Alright, song-fic number two!
This one I wanted to be more upbeat like the song so we'll see how it goes.
By the way, I don't own nothing. Ha, a double negative! Really though, I own nothing.
9 Shades of Red, 1 for each StrawHat
Song-9 Shades of Red
Artist-Hedley
Where did I go so wrong, Singing the same sad song, Sittin' home all alone saying "Woe is me, la la la la la la la"…
Luffy's lying on the grass deck of the Thousand Sunny, and it is a perfectly peaceful day. The sun was out, there was a light breeze, and all that could be heard was the squawking of birds in the distance. Everyone on the ship had something to do, other than Luffy. He had nothing to do, no one to play with, and they hadn't landed on an island for what felt like ages! These were the exact reasons why the Strawhat Captain was completely bored out of his mind. He needed something to happen, anything really.
…So now I'm callin' all of my friends, And this is where the fun begins, What would it take to afford a little break from the boredom, Little "ha ha ha ha"…
Almost as if to answer Luffy's thoughts, he spotted an island on the near horizon. He immediately jumped to his feet and yelled, "ISLAND!'.
At Luffy's overly loud yell, everyone came out of their rooms they had been working in and searched for the island Luffy saw. As soon and they had all found the island, the Thousand Sunny came to life. Everyone was moving to get ready, and followed their normal routine as Nami barked orders to everyone. Luffy was running around the ship with his trademark smile on his face.
…Holler back for a planned attack on this unsuspecting town, We may be lookin' pretty but we make an awful sound…
When they had reached the island, it was late in the evening. Due to the Strawhat's unbelievable luck, they seemed to land on the island that exactly the right time. On that day there was an island-wide party going on. The whole island was decked out with colourful lights, streamers, balloons, and loud music. The entire crew jumped off the ship excitedly to join in.
…It's you and it's me and that's all we'll ever need, And yeah we'll tear up the streets and we'll dance until we bleed, And then we'll sleep when we're dead cause we'll take over this town, And paint it nine shades of red, Getting down is what we're up to tonight…
Everyone fit in the party perfectly. Nami and Zoro had engaged in a drinking competition, and a crowd had circled them as they cheered the two on. Sanji had gotten into a cook-off with the caterers of the party, with Luffy as a "judge" eating anything and everything. Robin sat near where Sanji was competing, and he continually flirted with her. This made Sanji's opponents frustrated, thinking that Sanji didn't take the contest seriously, but they were shown up by every dish Sanji made. Usopp, Chopper, and Franky had gone out to the dance floor, and Brook had taken it on him to join in with the band and play the music that everyone was dancing to. It was easy for Chopper and Brook to blend in with the rest of the party since many people were in masks, and they were told that they had a very 'life-like costumes".
…And now security is havin' a fit, Cause nobody is givin us shit, And as the party gets cloudy yeah we start to get rowdy, Screamin "rah rah rah rah rah'…
Everyone was enjoying themselves at the party, and didn't seem to have a care in the world. What they didn't know was that there were marines on this island, and that they had taken notice that the Strawhat's were on the island.
…And if we gotta deal with the cops, Try to shut us up and say the fun stops, God we gotta keep grooving while your mouth keeps moving Mr. Blah blah blah blah,…
Luffy was stuffing his face and smilling around a mouth full of food, when he felt a tap on his shoulder. He turned around to find a marine with "Lieutenant" writen on his uniform. His eyes were hidden under his hat and he said, "Strawhat Luffy, you and your crew are to come with us," he gustered to the army of marines behind him, "and it will be your choice to you willingly or by force."
…Holler back for a planned attack on this unsuspecting town, We may be lookin' pretty but we make an awful sound…
The music continued to play and the party continues even as a subtle layer of intensity is added to the atmosphere. The eight other Strawhat are the only ones who catch this change and immediately turn to their captian. Luffy's smile is replaced by a frown of a second, and then quickly his smile returns, "No.".
…It's you and it's me and that's all we'll ever need, And yeah we'll tear up the streets and we'll dance until we bleed, And then we'll sleep when we're dead cause we'll take over this town, And paint it nine shades of red, Getting down is what we're up to tonight…
At this the Lieutenant draws a sword, knowing that the infamous Strawhat would be unharmed by bullets, and raises it over him head. As soon and the marine's sword is brought down Zoro is there in front of Luffy, seemily unchanged by the amount of alcohol he consumed, blocking the attack with his katana. Sanji them grabs Luffy by the neck of his shirt and starts to run to the ship with Robin in follow. The rest of the crew take this as their leave, and start running to the ship as well. Zoro continues to hold the marines back long enough for the crew to make it back safely, then leaves quick enough to avoid farther attacks from the marines.
…So now we gotta get up and shout, Until everybody kicks us out, Or till the lights come on and all the fights go on , It's everything that we're all about, So now we gotta get up and shout, Until everybody kicks us out, Or till the lights come on and all the fights go on, It's what we're all about…
The entire crew is laying on the Thousand Sunny with the island a safe distance away, breathing heavily from the long chase the marines had put up. Even after the long chase on land, the marines did not give up so easily. The crew had been running around the ship blocking their attacks on the Thousand Sunny, and escaping with a Coup de Burst. Now, only Luffy is breathing normally from their escape. Luffy is standing above them all with his smile that hadn't left his face for the entire chase, then falls down with his arms spread out and laughs. Soon the entire ship is in a laughing fit so hard that their sides hurt.
…Well it's you and it's me and thats all we'll ever need, And yeah we'll tear up the streets and we'll dance until we bleed, And then we'll sleep when we're dead , Yeah we'll take over this town, And paint it nine shades of red , Getting down is what we're up to…
When they're finished laughing, they begin to stand up again and catch their breath. Brook pulls out his violin and asks, "Shall we?".
Before receiving an answer, he starts to play a song much like the music from the party. Franky also pulls out his guitar and strums along with Brook. The rest of the of the crew dance along as the sky begins to brighten, and the sun peeks over the horizon.
…Well it's you and it's me and thats all we'll ever need, And yeah we'll tear up the streets and we'll dance until we bleed, And then we'll sleep when we're dead, Yeah we'll take over this town , And paint it nine shades of red, Getting down is what we're up to tonight.
There you have it!
I hope that you enjoyed this and that you will be looking out for more.
I love Hedley, so don't be surprised to see more of them in the future!
Ohh, and if you see any little mistakes I might have made, please tell me. I just have a feeling that I might have missed something. :/
By the way, if you liked it (or not) then tell me so that I can improve for the future (that means: review please!).
Thanks for reading! XD
