A young marine opens the door and stares inside, seeing no one another he let out a sigh and walks in closing the door behind him. The blonde hair brown eyed young man gazes around as he goes further into the room, making that were really was no one there.
The room in looked into had rows of long dark blue lockers that had two sections; the lower being long as he was and the upper that was in level with his eyes, was boot enough to get his boots in and enough else. In the middle of the rows of lockers was single benches.
The room was icy cold, as it normally was during these nights but the mouldy old room always seemed more chilly when on one was with him.
Hurrying he move to the next row and down it, dumping his bag on the bench. Overhead a light flickered badly causing him to fume and curse, it was already cold in here, he did not want it to be half dark as well.
He began unbuttoning his shirt in front of his locker but paused when he thought he heard something. He stood there frozen just listening to the silence, for some reason his heart was getting louder in his ears.
'shishihihi..' a small laugh sound a few feet away from him.
In his chest in heart best against his ribcage painfully; plucking up his courage he removed his hands from the buttons and started down the lockers row. A full grown man would be able to hide within these lockers, and he felt use that someone was.
'Shishishiihiishishi..' the laugh came again to his right inside a locker.
He turns facing the lockers and gathering his courage once again he reached out and grabbed hold of the handle opening it wide.
Nothing was there.
He stares at the clothes within almost like he could not believe that they were there. Tutting he closed the locker and as he did the smaller part above opened as a foot dropped out. Standing staring eyes wide the small door continued to open slowly.
Inside a body had been squeezed and twisted in, it's head was upside down wrapped under an arm and the upper body pushed against the sides, the foot came from what looked like his thigh.
'Murder!' The young marine thought in horror as he came forward in bit and then looked sadly upon the dead man's face, his eyes were closed and he appeared to be sleeping than dead. 'Someone killed him and there shoved in body in here... they most be very strong to break his bones and put him in there!'
Suddenly the eyes opens and stares blinking at him, the dead man's head grinned at him.
The young marine did not even made a sound as he crumbled to the ground, his rolling to the back in his head and foaming at the mouth.
Still blinking Luffy wiggles around and falls out of the small locker snapping back into shape by the time he reached the flooring. Standing he sighs and stares down blankly at the fainted marine.
"Luffy," Robin says as she smiles at him while popping her head around the corner of the lockers, "Shall we be going now?"
"Aa, I'm coming now!" Luffy calls lightly as he hops over the young man and heads forward Robin who still had his hat on. "The marines at this base are funny!"
