User blog:Desert Croc/Gathering the Combatants

My House

I walked into my room and yawned as I stretched my neck.

"It's about time I got a physical form!"

I, the user known as Desert Croc, opened my laptop to play a fighting game I found called M.U.G.E.N. I enjoyed it for a while, but then started to get sick of it.

"I've had it with this game! so many of the characters are either too overpowered, badly made or aren't available for the engine at all!"

I slumped back onto my bed.

"I wish I could create a fighting game of my own!"

Suddenly, I had a great idea!

"Why didn't I think of it before? This is going to be great!"

Using my omnipotent powers (don't question!), I created a column of podium stands outside the Earth to resemble a tournament bracket.

"Now let's get to business!"

The New World

Somewhere on the middle half of the Grand Line, there was a fleet of pirate ships. On one of the ships, there were pirates singing, drinking and having a jolly good time. One of the leaders of the fleet was a pirate with the appearance of a punk. He was having a conversation with a fancy looking pirate next to him.

"I'm telling you," Bartolomeo said with excitement, "Luffy-senpai was on my ship! MY SHIP! Isn't that such an honor!?"

Cavendish turned away. "Can't you do anything other than obsess over the pirate we serve? We could be searching for new land you know."

Bartolomeo wasn't calm in the slightest. "But Luffy-senpai was on my ship! That must mean he's my favorite in the fleet!"

A tall man with large shoulders came and sat down next to them.

"You know," Ideo said, "Cavendish is right, we will think about Luffy when we are called to aid him. In the meantime, we should do something else that's worth our time.

However, Bartolomeo and Cavendish didn't seem to pay attention to him. They were too busy staring at him.

Bartolomeo eyes were fixed on a certain spot. "Hey, did you wash yourself too much this morning?"

Cavendish seemed jealous. "How did you get yourself to sparkle like that?"

"Huh?"

Ideo looked down to see that his body was gleaming. Then, all of a sudden, he exploded with a flash. When the pirates regained their sight, he was nowhere to be found.

Meanwhile, Ideo opened his eyes to find himself on a podium in a place surrounded by stars. He looked down to see what appeared to be the Earth beneath him.

"How did I get here?"

Boros' Spaceship

On a futuristic spaceship, many aliens were sitting down fumbling with control pads. One of them, resembling an octopus, was leading them.

"We need to find the location of Earth!" Geryuganshoop commanded. "We don't want to upset Lord Boros now do we?"

"Have you found it yet?"

The aliens turned around and shuddered after seeing Boros enter the room.

"Well," Geryuganshoop said, trying hard to come up with an excuse "You see..."

"I found it!"

Everyone gathered around to see where Earth was.

"Excellent." Boros said with glee. "I shall finally meet my match there!"

"My lord?" one of the aliens asked, "You're sparkling. A lot."

"What Are you talking about..."

Boros stopped mid sentence after noticing that he was shining brightly. He then exploded like a flash grenade and disappeared, causing everyone to freak out.

When Boros opened his eyes, he found himself on a podium in the middle of nowhere. Beneath him was Earth. It was so close!

"Finally!"

He tried to jump off the podium but he was knocked back as he tried to do so, as if an invisible barrier was surrounding the podium.

"What is this?"
