Incredibly Late

Title: Changes
Rating: gen
Media: fic
Character: Luffy
Word Count: 205
Prompt: New Beginnings

When Luffy was a child, before he ever became the man that could become the pirate king, he lived much like any small child raised in a village near the ocean. The local eateries would feed him, the village women would take care of him, and the fishermen would try to teach him how to swim. It was a life from before he lived.

The first change in his life appeared while he was sitting at the bar with Makino. A red haired man walked into his life searching for sake and rum and walked out of it minus a left arm. After Shanks, Luffy had a dream.

Outraged that a pirate had become his beloved grandson’s role model, Luffy’s grandfather moved Luffy out of the village and into an isolated house in the mountains. This was the second major life change: he was now a younger brother, and Luffy now had family.

Luffy’s life changed many times because of others:  Shanks, his grandfather, and his two brothers, but the first time Luffy started a new portion of his life was when he set out to sea. Luffy reached out, grabbed Adventure with his two hands, and refused to let go. It was his beginning.

For my first post: an incredibly bad (not to mention: late) drabble. Believe it or not, I did write this on time. I just didn't type it up. Oh well. At the very least it isn't wasting away in my journal.

Thank you!

This competition has been going on for ... three weeks or thereabouts. The winner from the last prompts needs to get online and declare a winner before this one will end though. And that hasn't happened yet.

In other words, it's supposed to be a weekly thing. Emphasis on the 'supposed'.

lol,
