I'm sooooo sorry KisameFest! (If you're even reading this lol) but I got so caught up in school work and such and I just really lost inspiration to write for awhile OTL I feel really bad though and decided that I would push this out no matter what though! Sorry if it sucks T.T
As for my readers, I am still ON HIATUS. I haven't updated my profile but I did say that I was MIA (missing in action) which is practically the same thing. I'm almost done though! Only one more AP left and then SAT IIs and then I'm home free! So once I finish my last AP I'll be back for real.
I just felt so bad about this request and plus I hate studying, so I finished this up. Enjoy! (and the last half is totally unproofread, and uneverything, so I'm sorry for bad writing and/or mistakes.
Sharks – prompt by KisameFest
Luffy and Sanji
Rated K+ (Sanji's cursing again)
The entire Strawhat crew stood on deck, eager to step ashore the new island in sight. Luffy, too eager to get off and explore the island, decided to Gomu Gomu no Rocket himself early, much to everyone's exacerbation.
By the time the rest of the crew reached the harbor, Luffy already had a good 20 minutes on them, so instead of wasting their time searching for him on the rather large island, they divvied up the necessary tasks, and set out to town.
Brook stayed behind to guard the ship, his skeletal figure more than enough to give the townspeople a heart attack, while the rest of the crew dispersed throughout the island.
Sanji, who had hoped to pick up some fresh fish in the markets, was surprised to see that there was not a single fish store in the entire town. Hoping that he had simply overlooked one, he asked a townsman, "Are there any fish markets in the area?"
The man gasped loudly, jumping back from Sanji in fright. Glancing around nervously, he quickly ran away, rounding a corner and disappearing from sight.
Puzzled, Sanji raised his one visible eyebrow, unsure of what to make of the strange reaction. Shrugging it off, he continued down the road, still hoping to come across a fish market.
Not two steps later, he heard loud screams not far from where he was. Sensing maidens in distress, he rushed off towards the source to find exactly what he hoped he wouldn't find.
Luffy was once again causing uproar; the guy definitely didn't know the meaning of low-profile. Luffy was in the town hall, pressing himself up against the glass of a shark tank, salivating at the sight of the fat sharks swimming around. Residents all around were running and shouting, trying to get as far away from Luffy as possible.
"Luffy! What are you doing?!" Sanji asked, annoyed at the attention they were getting.
"Sanji! Look at this shark! Cook it! Cook it!" Luffy said, nearly drooling.
Sanji turned to assess the food value of the shark, before the two of them heard loud gasps from the people around them.
"Barbarians!" an old man cried, holding his cane out in front of him as if it was a weapon. "You people are appalling! How dare you think to consume such a holy being?"
"Holy?" Sanji asked, thinking this piece of information may explain a lot of what was going on in this island.
"Of course! Don't you people know that the fish in these waters are sacred? The sharks here are our Gods! We won't allow you to touch them!"
"Gods?" Luffy asked, finally taking an interest in the old man's ramblings.
"Yes! I said that already! Now don't you dare touch them! Either of you!" the man angrily replied.
"But they look so tasty!" Luffy whined, mouth turning into a deep pout.
Before the old man could get any more red in the face, Sanji quickly pulled Luffy away, confident that Luffy had already caused enough trouble.
"We're very sorry!" Sanji called sheepishly, "We'll be on our way now!"
Before the man could start his angry rambling, the two pirates slipped out and left the village.
Running back at full speed with Luffy in tow, Sanji reached the ship only to find nobody on board except the skeleton. "Shit!" Sanji cursed, not wanting to cause a huge scene with the townsfolk, afraid their identity may be blown, "we need to get out of here!"
"Ah! Sanji-san, what happened?" Brook asked calmly, sipping on a warm cup of tea as if the cook of the ship wasn't currently having a panic attack.
"Brook, can you reach the others? We need to get out of here! Our shitty captain here decided to cause a huge uproar in the town hall!" Sanji said, holding Luffy up by the back of his shirt.
"But the shark looked so tasty…" Luffy muttered, pouting at the loss of food.
"Guys? What's going on?" Chopper asked, he and the rest of the crew making their way up to the ship.
"Guys! Let's set sail! Our shitty captain here got noticed by practically everyone in town, we should leave before they call the marines!"
Chopper gasped and Nami growled, but the crew members spread around the ship preparing for departure.
They had just finished their preparations before Usopp called from the crow's nest, "Guys! Marines are coming in off the starboard side!"
Cannonballs barely missing rocked the boat with the huge waves the impact caused, making the pirates gasp in alarm and annoyance.
"Alright guys! Hang on tight!" Franky called, "I just filled Sunny up with some fresh cola. We gonna do a coup de burst outa here!"
Cheers sounded from all around, almost drowned out by the sound of the cannonballs crashing into the growing waves.
"Ready? Coup…de…BURST!"
Normally, I would ask for any requests or so, but I realized that those are just not gonna happen anymore, so for now, I'll just do some free writing and when I'm officially back I'll reopen for any requests if people want.
If any of you still want to request a prompt/situation/story/etc, feel free to do so just know that nothing will be acted upon until after my AP.
Thanks for reading! Hope you liked it :)
