Author's Note: And, so, Lucy became a pirate. Will she be happy in One Piece Faction? We'll see.
Disclaimer: I only own my OCs, and they won't show up for a while.
After the ceremony ends, I split off with the One Piece faction newbies.
"Bye, Lucy! We promise to visit you and bring cookies!" Mom yells.
"And we promise to show you Gray doing a re-enactment of that corset scene!" Dad adds. I sigh.
"Bye! Have fun on Hetalia Day without me!" I yell before I follow my fellow pirates outside. We all grow silent once we realize that we're supposed to do something.
"Well, then..." A transfer from Bleach faction with short, spiky, blue hair says as she puts on a pair of sunglasses. "It's a pirate's life for us now."
Yeeeaaaaaahhhhh!
"OMG! You know that CSI: Miami meme?!" I ask the girl.
"Yep! It's my favorite meme!" The girl says. "My name is Levy McGarden. I'm from Bleach faction. What's your name?"
"I'm Lucy Heartfilia. I'm from Hetalia faction," I introduce myself.
"Hetalia faction, eh? That one was always an... Interesting faction, with all of the fanfiction and Christmas bloodbaths and whatnot," Levy says.
"Bleach faction must've been interesting, too," I say. "I mean, don't you guys worship a gay fairy named ButterflAizen?"
"Yeah..." Levy says as she nervously scratches the back of her head. "Anyway, initiation is going to start soon."
"Initiation? What are we going to do?" I ask Levy as the pirates of One Piece faction approach Navy Pier, where several pirate ships are docked.
"Oh, that? We have to jump into these lifeboats our ship is pulling. If we end up in the water, you become factionless and have to live with the Homestuck faction," Levy explains as we run after the lifeboats, which are sailing away. Levy then stops running, breaks into a sprint, and does a perfect backflip into her lifeboat. People in her lifeboat cheer. "Come on, Lucy! You can do it!"
"Alright..." I say before I run to the edge of the dock and take a flying leap into the lifeboat, accidentally tackling Levy and pinning her to the ground in the process. "Uhh... Oops."
A pink-haired boy wearing a scarf helps me up.
"That was an epic jump you made," The boy says in awe.
"Thanks," I say. Then, the boy collapses and turns green.
"Stop the boat! I think I'm gonna be sick!" The boy cries. Everyone sweatdrops.
"Don't worry, it's a common occurence for Natsu to get sick," A boy with black, spiky hair and piercings explains. "My name is Gajeel Redfox by the way."
"I'm Lucy, and this is Levy," I introduce myself and Levy to Gajeel.
"Hi," Levy says as our lifeboat stops at a huge pirate ship called The Hyperion.
"Well, initiation's over, so let's party!" Gajeel says as we board the boat, with Gajeel dragging Natsu - the seasick boy - on board. Buffet tables of food and drinks await us.
"Sweet! We get to party!" Somebody in the crowd yells. Levy and I walk to a stack of hamburgers on a tray.
"Hamburgers?" I ask. In Hetalia faction, I ate a lot of hamburgers, since the Hetalia character America (or, Alfred F. Jones) eats lots of hamburgers.
"I just hope they're not from McDonald's," Levy says.
"They're not. We shipped these over from an In-N-Out in Los Angeles."
Natsu approaches us.
"In-N-Out?! No way!" I say before I dig into a hamburger, which is the best hamburger ever. "Mmmmm! Why can't there be an In-N-Out in Chicago?!"
"No clue," Natsu says before he digs into a hamburger of his own.
That night, I go to bed in my assigned dorm. Even though you can wear almost anything in One Piece faction (except merchandise pertaining to Bleach, Naruto, Hetalia, Kuroshitsuji, or Homestuck), I decide to sleep in my Sweden cosplay, for old times' sake. It takes me a long time to fall asleep, since the suit of armor sleeping next to me has a litter of kittens inside of his armor. (1)
Wait... How did a suit of armor get accepted into this faction?
(1) - This is not a typo. Alphonse Elric from Fullmetal Alchemist is in this faction.
Review if you possibly want to see Edward and Winry!
