This one took a while, but I'll admit it waskinda sitting in my computer rotting for a few months......
Zolo: .........KINDA!?!?
Um.... seriously..... rotting in my computer....
Anyway... time for Chapter 3: Chatot is a Jerk!
Disclaimers on the previous chapters. One last thing... I'm letting there be blood, okay? You can't be squeamish if you've watched One Piece, so... yeah.
Luffy spun through the air. His foot was bleeding. He wondered if his powers worked in this world. He looked down, muttering to himself, "Not enough time to test it... let's find out--"
As he spoke, a something caught him, bringing him down safely. "Nami?"
"It's me, you idiot! And that hurt my back!"
Luffy flipped over on Zolo's back, "Sweet! You can fly!"
"Yeah," Zolo looked irritated, "But you're weighing me down! Do your powers work?"
Luffy stretched out his cheeks, "Yup!"
"Than get off!"
Luffy nodded and shot out his hands at the window, "Gum Gum... ROCKET!!" he pulled himself up, snapping back into the room. Zolo flew back up, "That's enough excitement for one day. Why'd you say 'Nami'?"
Luffy looked thoughtful, "I thought I saw Nami out there."
Zolo straightened up from his questionable landing, "Really? Huh. Maybe I'm wrong." he yawned, "Either way, we're getting nowhere fast without sleep. We've got to worry about that parrot's training now..."
Luffy grinned his signature grin, "Right!"
It took a while, but they finally fell asleep. Luffy dreamed of meat, and having Sanji cook for them. Zolo dreamed of finding another sword, since he basically had two built into his arms already. He also dreamed of Kuina, but that's another fanfic. Next morning...
(A/N: I closed my game by accident at this point, and I'm too lazy to play through that annoying beginning again or watch a tutorial, so this next part is going to be paraphrased.)
"UP AND AT 'EM!!!"
The voice that had argued with Diglett when they first came boomed at them, making the floor tremble. Zolo popped out, "Ow, my head! Can't a guy get some decent sleep around here!?"
Luffy blinked awake to look up at what looked like a mix between Gaimon, a frog, and a totem figure. It was a blue figure, most of it's body filled with it's mouth and what seemed to be loudspeakers on it's head. It shouted again, "HEY, you're AWAKE!"
Luffy held his bunny-like ears, "That surprised me... who are you?"
"I'm LOUDRED!" it announced, giving him a minor migraine, "I'm a fellow APPRENTICE here!"
Zolo held his scythe-like arms up to his head carefully, "Oww.... stop shouting, will ya?"
"It's time to GET UP! You don't wanna be LATE!"
He left, leaving them both to get up and get going. As they stepped out, they saw an arrangement of Pokemon sitting in rows outside Wigglytuff's room and watching Chatot. Chatot eyed the former pirates, "You're late."
Zolo yawned, "My head hurts worse than hangovers can do....."
Ignoring the wierd comment, Chatot called into Wigglytuff's room, "Guildmaster, it's time for your speech!"
Wigglytuff came outside, his bright gaze fixed ahead and unblinking. He stopped outside and mumbled, "....Mph.... zzzzzzzzz....."
Luffy whispered rather loudly to Zolo, "Hey, the old man, fast asleep with his eyes closed."
"Ow... don't talk, my head hurts...." Zolo replied.
Chatot looked embarrased at Wigglytuff's condition, "Er... thank you, Guildmaster, for your wise words of wisdom! Now, time for the..."
Luffy and Zolo's heads both hurt, and they barely paid attention. Afterward, everyone disparsed, but they both sat still, having no idea what to do. Chatot walked up to them, "You two! Little lost, aren't you? Here, come with me..."
He led them upstairs and to the right to a bulliten board. Luffy examined it, "Ooh, what's this?"
(A/N: This part I don't remember. Feh. Not important xD)
After a brief explanation, Luffy chose the first job he saw. He read it over, "Find a pearl for a...... what's a Spoik?"
Chatot anime-fell.
After yet another explanation, Luffy and Zolo set out to find the pearl. Outside the drenched bluff, Luffy looked around, "I wonder if we'll see Nami in here...."
Zolo shrugged, "She might've found the pearl..."
A Pokemon randomly fell onto the floor in front of Luffy. Luffy jumped, "Ack! What's that?"
The creature was a pink slug thing. It spinned in a circle, causing mud to fly up, while shouting, "Mud Sport!"
Luffy, confused, poked it. He was rewarded by a bite to the face. "OW!" he gave it a punch.
The slug threw a ball of mud at him, and he dodged, "Gum Gum.... PISTOL!!!" he slung out his arm, punching it again and causing it to faint. Locking his arm back into place, Luffy continued walking with Luffy close behind. Soon they found a staircase, and Luffy hopped down it without a second thought. Zolo sighed and followed.
On the second floor, there was something that sort of looked like a sea scorpion. It's big eyes blinked, and at the sight of them it scuttled away. On this floor, they also found a bag of coins (5 total) and a blue berry. Luffy slipped on the stairs and fell down into the third floor, followed by Zolo.
On the third floor, nothing happened since the staircase to the next floor was right next to them.
On the fourth floor, they saw three sea scorpion things, all of which fought them and were defeated.
On the fifth, there were three slugs and a sea scorpion. Zolo got to help with these, using his arms in two-sword techniques.
The six floor was skipped accidentally, since the stairs ended where the next flight began.
On the seventh, Luffy spotted the pearl. "There it is!"
Zolo looked around, "That was a little easy..."
Luffy shrugged, "Well, we got the pearl, right? Let's go!"
They left the bluff, and returned to the guild. Chatot was waiting for them with a piggy sproingy thing, namely the "Spoink". Spoik cheered as Zolo returned the pearl, "Thank you so much! This pearl is my life! A Spoink without his pearl is like... like a scyther without it's blades! Or a pikachu without it's electricity!"
"Electricity?" Luffy asked.
Spoink and Chatot anime-fell.
"Yes," Chatot explained annoyedly, "Don't you know how to use your powers?"
"I know how to use my devil fruit powers." Luffy replied, stretching his cheeks.
Chatot looked disturbed, "I've never seen a pikachu do that..."
Another half-hour was spent explaining electric powers to Luffy. Unfortunately, his rubber-ness stopped him from using these powers. Chatot was displeased. The Spoink left soon.
"Alright," Chatot said, "The nice Spoink has rewarded you with 2000 coins."
"Sweet!" both pirates commented.
"Of course," Chatot continued, "Because of the guild's regulations, out of that you get about... this much." he gave them 200 coins. Even Luffy understoof enough to anime-fall.
Zolo frowned, "So long, dreams of sake fountains..."
Luffy frowned, "I want meeeaaat....."
Chatot hopped off, "While, it's getting late. Off to bed, you two."
Both pirates went dejectedly back to their room.
Back in their room, Luffy stared out of the window. "I'm sure I saw Nami." he said with his usual determination, "I'm just sure of it."
"Right." Zolo replied, "I wonder if that coward Usopp is here too. Wouldn't mind Sanji here, though."
"Mmmmm...... Meeeeaaaat..." Luffy drooled.
"Anyway, you should probably get down before you fall off again. Let's get some sleep, before that Loudred guy comes back."
"Right."
This one is a little short, I think....... anyway, the next one will be more interesting :3
Srsly. Chatot is a jerk. He's more of a jerk than the King of Hyrule .-.
In the next chapter: Will they find Nami? Find out soon :D
