The Great Escape: Shackled

Disclaimer: I own only my ocs.

The sun slowly rises over the horizon, while the ship sails toward a city that seems to overtake the island. As this was moving, the marines were getting the ship ready to deliver their prisoner to Captain Smoker.

As for their prisoner, he was asleep, but that didn't last long, thanks to Fullbody kicking his cage. "Oi, Draco!" the lieutenant ordered, after he kicks the cage, again, "Time to wake up."

"Thanks for the wake-up call, asshole." he groans, rubbing the back of his head, as he looks up at Fullbody, "So, where's my commentary omelet?"

"Funny one." he answers with another kick to the cage, then smirks, "Just to let you know, we're an hour away from our final stop."

"Good." Draco replies with a smirk as he shut his eyes, "Maybe then I can get some real breakfast." which earns him a kick to the cage.

"I wonder how long you will stay alive." Fullbody growls as he glares at the prisoner, who still smirks.

"You sure love to listen to yourself."

"I'm sure Smoker won't mind taking your life." he said as he lean down, glaring at him, "I know I would love to."

"Why don't you come in and find out?"

"I would love to." Fullbody said as he punch the cage that was strong enough to cause Draco to bang against the bars, "But I'm sure Smoker would prefer you alive.", then the marine got up with a smirk.

"And I'm sure Moodie would never take your ass back." Draco said out loud, which causes the marine's left eye to twitch and slams his fist against the cage.

"Oi!" Fullbody shouted out loud to the crew, "You lot better get this piece of junk moving much faster.", then he had to his cabin.

I think I hit a nerve. Draco thought as he watch him disappear into the room, slamming the door so hard, that it break off.

"DAMMIT!"

"Yeah..I did hit a nerve."

~an hour later~

Once the marine ship was docked at Loguetown and the marines begin to march down, with Fullbody taking the lead, well Draco was middle, being in chains. As the small group was moving down the street, a sizeable crowd begins to form around them, watching the black-haired man being delivered to his marine base.

"Huh...I wasn't expecting such a turnout." Draco replies as he looks around the area then holds up his hands, protecting his face from the oncoming beer bottle. Sadly, he wasn't ready for the rain of rotten fruits and other trash.

"They sure like you." Fullbody said with a laugh, only for a bottle to hit the back of his head.

"But I think the important thing is, I don't like you." he said with a smirk, only for the marine turns around, showing his blood begin to ooze out, and move toward Draco, playing to shove his fist down his throat, only for a gloved hand grabs his wrist.

"I'll take it from here, Lieutenant." said a gruff voice, making Fullbody glare at the wanted man, who was smirking.

"Just let me punch him once."

"If you do that," the voice said in a mutter as Fullbody was jerked around, showing Captain Smoker staring at him, "He'll win."

"...What?"

"He's trying to make you look bad." the marine captain replies as he glares at Draco, who waves at him.

"Long time no see, Puffie."

"Believe me when I say, I want to punch him as much as you do." he said as he let go and begin to walks beside him.

"...I'll leave him in your hands."

"Good choice." Smoker said as he pulls out a cigar and lit it, "Make sure you take care of the paperwork and give it to Tashigi."

"Understood." Fullbody give a nod and turns as the captain move toward the smirking prisoner.

"We meet, again, Puffie." Draco said as he watch him, only to feel the marine's gloved hand squeezing his cheek as he glares at him.

"What are you smirking about?"

"Nothing really." the prisoner answered as he was glancing over Smoker's shoulder, noticing a red bird sitting on a corner of a building, "It's just good to be in the town of the beginning and the end."

"I guess you see it poetic."

"You could say that." Draco said with a slight shrug and chuckles, "So, do you still balancing rocks?"

"Shut it, Malchior." Smoker growls as he takes the chain and pulls him along.

"Is it time for you to show me to my room?" he asks, only to get jerked by the smoking captain toward a wide, three wheels bike.

"I see you replaced your old ride." he said as he stares at the ride, "Amazing how two little bolts would cause you to lose a tire and a cabbage cart."

"Do I have to gag you?"

"Oh, Puffie!" Draco said in a shocked tone, only for the prisoner to be thrown on his back "Think about children and the filthy thought you putting in their mind."

"Just shut it." Smoker growls as he set down on his bike and drove off to the marine base.

~later that day~

"I don't know what's worst." said a marine as he pulls Draco down the hallway, "The paperwork's or listen to him talk."

"Well, there is a way to fix both problems." Draco said, wearing a prison uniform and a tired grin as he follow the man, "You could just let me go with a slap on the wrist."

"Not going to happen." said a dark hair woman, wearing a yellow, flower print shirt, waist-length blue coat, that has a white trimmed, and rectangular glasses, holding a sheathed katana, who was leaning against the wall.

"Cold as usual, Tashigi." he said as he rolls his eyes, "So, are you still mad at me?", which get his answer with her unsheathing her blade, cutting a bit of his hair, only to return it in the sheath, "A "yes" would have been nice, instead of that, though I see you have improved your swords."

"Go throw him in a cell." she said with a dirty look and open the door, "Smoker suggests putting him with "The Blaze"."

"Understood!" he said with a nod as he pulls on Draco's cuffs, taking him into their prison, moving past a couple of cells, filled with prisoners. They keep walking, passing an overweight guard busy reading the paper and two others play a card game, then he comes to a stop.

"I do hope you enjoy your stay with your roommate." the marine said as he open the cell, Draco was through in, only to shut it, "Now play nice with each other."

Draco groans as he turns around and watches the guard walk away, well the prisoner starts to laugh, I mark him as dumbass. He then turns around, looking at his cellmate, studying him for a moment, noticing the many scars over his left cheek, spiky, black hair, that have red highlights, and the brown eyes, who were glaring at him.

"So, what are you in for, Blaze?"

"That's none of your business, pirate." he answers as he smirks, while he stares at him, noticing the scars on his right cheek, the long black hair, a pair of green eyes, and then his cuff.

"Someone is a bit touchy." Draco said as he shrugs and stands up, only for The Blaze to lunge at his cellmate, planning to tackle and slit his throat with his makeshift blade.

However, in mid-air, he didn't see Draco's hands meet the spiky hair man's shoulders, pushing him down, while Draco's left knee meet his stomach. He let go of his weapon, gasping in pain, only for him to hit the ground, groaning loudly.

"For the record, I never call myself a pirate." Draco said as he stares at the down man, only to bend over and pick up the weapon, which look to be made out of a toothbrush, "It was a label the marines decide to give me."

"As I would believe you?" the cellmate growls as he got up, glaring at the weapon in his hands.

"You should." he reply as he holds out his weapon, "They put you in here and I'm pretty sure The Blaze didn't do anything to anyone.", then drops it in the other hand, "Or am I wrong, Roy?"

The spiky hair man just blinked at the dark-haired man as he move to a bed, only to sit down, looking at him, "I'm surprised you know my real name."

"Of course, I know your name." Draco said with a grin and shut his eyes, "I like to keep my eyes out for certain bounty hunters, who want my neck, well I visiting people in my home sea."

"So, I was on your watch?" he asks as he squeezes down on his weapon, well he stares at him, noticing a small smirk, "I'm that well known in the Grand Line?"

"I won't say that." he opens his left eye and shrugs as he watches him, "Though I know of an organization thought you would be a great pick to join them."

"Really?"

"Yes, though I doubt you would join them." Draco said he open both his eyes and stared at him, noticing Roy putting the item down and set on the bed on the other side of the cell, "So, I'll repeat the question. What are you in for?"

"I'm not sure." Roy answers as he sighs, only to give shrugs, "My best guess is I pissed off the wrong marine captain or two."

"So, it's either they were tired of you stealing their prey or their getting even on you for cutting back on their back pay."

"They were taking bribes?!"

"Don't be too surprising." the dark-haired man said as he give a shrug and glance over the shoulder, checking on the guards, "Not everyone is a saint in this world."

"Good point." Roy mutters as he watches the man and asks, "So, you're not a pirate. So, what are you?"

"That's a good question." he said with shrugs and chuckles lightly, "I guess the best way would be an adventurer."

"So, does that mean you don't kill?"

"No. I'll kill." Draco replies as he lay back, with a yawn, "If I have no other choices."

Interesting. he thought to himself as watching his cellmate, who seem to be ready for anything, then ask, "So, I have no chance to defeat you."

"With that weapon," he said with a yawn as he gives a shrug, "Not a chance."

"Is that so?" Roy said as he was just thinking about a way to beat this man, but notices Draco holds his hand up.

"Though I bet you have a better chance if you have your weapon."

"A shame they took it from me."

"It's to be expected." Draco said as he keeps his eyes shut, "Anyhoo, you're welcome to attack me, but I'm going to take a nap."

"Alright..." he said as he watch him fall asleep, wondering what to do with his new cellmate.

A few hours later, Draco awoke with a glance at three guards, who were busy playing a game of cards. He then look at Roy, who was doing push up, which he rose from his bed and let out a yawn.

"So, you're finally awake."

"Yeah." he pops his neck, only to glance at the clock, "I needed as much rest I can get."

"Didn't sleep well?" Roy asks as he comes to a stop and rises from his spot.

"I like to see how well you sleep inside a cage, with a dumbass, who keep kicking it." he answer as he got off the bed, looking at Roy, "So, I notice you didn't attack me during my nap?"

"I don't attack sleeping targets." he replies as he looks back, only to find Draco glancing at the clock. This was his chance and he took it by trying to punch Draco's throat, only for his fist to avoid and swept his legs.

"What will it take for you to understand that you can't beat me?" the dark-haired man said as he look down at a groaning Roy, then hold out his hands to help him, "At least, not without your weapon."

"I know I can beat." Roy growls as he smacks his hands away and slowly raises from his spot, "With or without a weapon."

"You're welcome to prove me wrong." he reply as returned looking at the clock, with his roommate wondering what was going on, but then a different idea came to him. Roy tries to punch him in the throat, only to be caught and pulled into a knee in the gut.

"This is getting old." Draco mutter under his breath, after watching Roy double over, then glance at the clock, making him smirk, "It's about time." He took a deep breath and does a powerful jerk, causing the cuffs to fall apart.

The sound of the metal breaking, made the guards jump up and move to the cell, while a strange, but the light melody was heard from outside the barred window.

That's it for now. Don't forget to read and review.
