I do not own One Piece, only my OCs.
Chapter 25-Games Event
Akira's POV
For the next two days I was in bed, bored out of my mind and blamed Law. Cause he doesn't let me leave!
Though for some reason the villagers didn't chase us away. I did destroy a few buildings while fighting Agnesh, but they act like nothing had happened. Weird.
"Can I move now. Please. Please. Please. Please!" I bugged Law after he got me my food. It's the third day and I'm starting go loose it a bit.
"Let me see your wound." he said with a sigh.
"Yey!" I said and sat up properly.
He pulled my shirt up to below my breasts and as I held it he undid the bandages to look at the stab wound in my side. He poked at it for a bit then put a new set of bandaged over it.
"Great, can I move now?" I grinned as I let my t-shirt drop.
"Yes you can, but no leaving the sub." he said pointing a warning finger at me.
"Yea, yea. I wont." I said as I stood up. Shakily I took a few steps. Its been a while since I last walked ok.
My first task was to go and find Andy and Xena. Luckily I found them in the galley.
The boys asked me if I was alright, reassuring them I waited for Andy and Xena.
But the strange thing I noticed, was that Xena isn't sitting at out usual table, Andy is. She is sitting on a different one by Cody. Huh. I wonder if she made friends with him.
"Ever since she went to the control room seeking piece and quiet, the two been hanging out a lot." Andy said.
"Have they?" I asked smirking. Maybe with a bit of my help those two will get together.
"What are you planning now? You meddlesome girl." Andy asked looking at me sceptically.
"Me? Nothing in particular." I grinned.
After they finished their lunch, I asked Andy to show me his drum set. I teleported it into my room with my fire and Xena grabbing her base, we started to practice the songs I wrote down before.
It went like this for the next two days. Law didn't mind all that much either, he usually sat in on our practices.
Today's the day I'll go to kill my new target; the Sand Demon Suna.
I got dressed and Law came into my room.
"You only just healed and you're running off to get beat up again." he sighed as he leaned against the door frame.
"I will always win in the end though." I said crossing my arms as I faced him.
"Not unscratched." he frowned.
"Aww, are you worried?" I asked letting my arms drop to my sides as I rested my left hand on AkaKage who I strapped to my belt earlier.
"I'm the one that has to clean you up in the end remember?" he asked as he stepped into the room.
"I have to do this. We leave in two days and I don't know I never know what's gonna happen when a demon is involved. Besides, I rather get this over with sooner than later." I said as I walked passed him. He grabbed my arm and I looked back at him.
"Be careful." he looked me in the eye. I nodded and left.
As I jumped off the sub I headed to the royal palace. This should be interesting.
I moved through the crowd, its good that I could see the palace otherwise I would most likely pull a Zoro and frankly I'm not in the mood to get lost right now.
I arrived at the entrance and the royal palace has to be the biggest building I have ever seen. It reaches high up to the sky. Its made of white marble with gold pattern running through it. I couldn't help but stare at it with wide eyes and an open mouth.
"I'm glad you like my place." came a voice and I snapped my head in the front door's direction.
There stood a short girl with long light brown hair that is tied up on the left side atop her head with a side fringe, huge chocolate brown eyes, she looks 13 years old. Wearing a dusty pink dress that has a turtle neck but sleeveless and backless, it goes down to her knees on the right side but only to her hips on the left with a beige underskirt reaching her mid thighs, a brown corset, boots that go a little above her knees and beige gloves that reach up to her upper arm with lacing crisscrossing up her arm like on a corset.
"Your Suna, right?" I asked never dropping my guard.
"I am. And you are Death's assassin Akira. Come, I wanna show you around." she said cheery as she ran up to me, grabbed my arm and pulled me inside.
I was caught off guard and by the time I could of reacted, I got distracted how beautiful the palace looks from the inside. She dragged me around showing me the whole place. Its so huge.
"Here, have some lemonade and cookies." Suna offered as we sat down in her living room type thing, still huge, on couches facing each other with a coffee table between them. I sat on one while she sat opposite of me on the other.
"Thank you." I said as I took a cookie and bit into it. OMG delicious. Suna been nothing but a good host so far but I wont let my guard down.
"So you were sent to kill me and send me back to Hell am I correct?" she asked as she took a sip from her drink. I nodded, doing the same. "I don't wanna fight you."
"Excuse me?" I asked dumfounded.
"I've seen your fight with that witch. If I fight you I will most definitely loose. I also overheard your plans for the games event. If you let me take part, I will let you kill me without a fight at the end of it." she smiled excitedly.
"And why should I believe a word you say?" I asked glaring at her.
"Because I told the villagers not to attack your crew for causing such a ruckus. You owe me." she said.
"I don't trust a word a demon says. I've learned my lesson with trusting the Light Demon." I said annoyed.
"I'm not like Senkou. I keep my word. Please let me partake, it sounds so fun. I'm bored of the living world anyway. I planned to go back, but you came here and caught my interest." she explained.
"I guess so. But I will keep an eye on you. No funny business you understand?" I stood up glaring at her.
"Yes sir." she jumped up and saluted grinning.
With a sigh I went back to the crew with Suna following behind me. I don't think Law will like this very much.
As we walked towards his room, we passed a couple of guys who looked at us confused.
"Law. I'm back." I went in not even bothering to knock. Luckily he was just at his desk with a book in front of him.
"Miss Akira." he looked up.
"I though you dropped the Miss." I said annoyed.
"Your unscratched? Who is that?" he glared at the girl behind me.
"Suna the Sand Demon." I said. He jumped up in a defensives stance.
"Relax, she made a deal with me." I sighed as I sat in the puffy chair in front of his desk crossing one leg over the other.
As he sat back down I explained the situation to him. As I guessed he wasn't too happy about it, but Suna seemed fascinated by him for some reason. What's wrong with her? Weird girl.
So Law called the crew together and we began preparing for the games event.
Suna got the town to help us and provide the materials and equipment we need.
So in the end the villagers ended up being our spectators.
The event will take place tomorrow as there's too much stuff to set up today.
For the specific two races me and Andy came up with, we asked Shachi and Penguin to build two of each vehicle for us that we will race in, so they were working on that for the whole of today and into the night. They're such awesome mechanics, they worked super fast. We just needed to explain how they worked XD
I think we managed to set up the courses for the various races and games pretty well.
Now to wait for tomorrow to come and the games begin X3
We divided the crew into two teams; Red Team and Blue Team. The way we picked the games with Xena was that it had fun and goofy but also serious games, putting them in order of easy going harder we told Suna all the rules and regulations to all 16 games.
So now we're gathered in the area of the first game. Suna had a microphone in hand so all the audience can hear.
"Welcome to the Heart Pirate's Games Event that will last all day long. I hope your ready for an exiting and fun day cause I sure as hell am. Akira told me I have to tell you the rules so here it gores: in the even there will be 16 games in total and in each game, members of the Red Team and the Blue Team will compete to get points. Each game has different amount of points to offer. Every team member has to take part in at least 4 of the games, no exceptions. Weapons of your own are not permitted, only the ones provided for that specific game. This is a friendly competition so play nice, other than that everything goes. I will tell you the rules of each game when we get to them so I hope you guys enjoy. Let the Games Event begin!" she explained and the crowd cheered.
"Suna the teams!" I shouted at her.
"Oh yea. Whoops. I forgot to introduce them, sorry. The Red Team: Trafalgar Law, Portgas D. Akira, Cody, Penguin, Bepo, Damian, Nick, Rex and Jack. The Blue Team: Silvers Andy, Xena, Jake, Shachi, Ryan, Alex, Jamie, Shinji and Shido.
In the teams there is no team leader, your all in an equal position, even if you are the captain or navigator, your in the same position as the rest.
Now the first game is Sack Racing. It is a fun little race that requires you to pull a sack over your legs and while holding it up get to the finish line racing your opponent. Each team has 9 members and all of you are required to take part in this, each competing with one of the opposing team. This race awards you with 5 points each player. If you happen to draw with your opponent then both teams get the points.
I have the sheet with the pairs that are to compete." she said and handed a sheet to each team. We all had red and blue bandanas tied to our wrist indicating our teams.
The course that we have to run through isn't that awfully long and the finish line has that white paper strip you have to run through and win.
The first to compete is me and Xena. Smirking we walk up to the starting line. As they gave us a sack each we climb into it and stand at our ready.
"Ok. The first of our contestants are Akira from the Red Team and Xena from the Blue. You ready guys?" she asked as we smirked and nodded at her. "On my mark. Set." as she blew the whistle we both raced forward.
I have to admit its hard to keep your balance in this thing but we hopped towards the finish line.
"Wow. Look at them hop to victory. Isn't this hilarious and the stupidest game that has been invented?" Suna laughed insulting it. "They are head to head and determined to win. This is literally the battle of water and fire, complete opposites. Oh look at that, Akira's taking the lead. I have to say as stupid as this looks they're doing good considering how hard it is to move in that. But I guess you have to turn into a rabbit to win huh. They are nearly at the finish line."
I took the lead as I took in what Suna said and shifted to a half rabbit so I could hop better. She did say that anything goes.
"And Akira is the winner!" Suna shouted as everyone cheered. "Shifting to half human and bunny was a good move, its not against the rules either. 5 points to the Red Team!" she cheered as she wrote the score on the board.
"I'm gonna call the Red Team: RT and the Blue Team: BT cause the author is lazy and cant be asked to write the whole words out ;P. The next pair take your places." she grinned. I have to say she's a great commentator. "Text up is Law from RT and Andy from BT. Good luck guys and don't trip." she said and winked at them.
The whistle sounded and they took off. I could see Law struggling a little, but then again so was Andy. I couldn't help it and burst out laughing. It was such a good idea to put this into the games, now we can see the Heart Pirates make idiots of themselves.
"The winner is Law. Woo. Another 5 points to the Red Team. You better step your game up Blue team or you'll fall behind even more." Suna giggled. "The next pair is Cody from RT and Jake from BT. Ready. Set." and at the whistle they were off.
"The winner is Jake. 5 points to BT." Suna cheered and wrote the score on the board.
Next up came Penguin from RT vs. Shachi from BT. Penguin won gaining us 5 more points.
Bepo from RT vs. Ryan from BT. Ryan won. Damian from RT vs. Alex from BT. Alex won. Nick from RT vs. Jamie from BT. Jamie won. Rex from RT vs. Shinji from BT. Rex won. Jack from RT vs. Shido from BT. Shido won.
"The Blue team wins this round with 25 points, well done guys." Suna said as they cheered. "The Red Team got 20 points. Keep up the good work. Its time to move onto the next game."
Haha that's the first game done. I could not leave out the sack race, I find it hilarious and who didn't race it when they were small XD
Please review X3
