(5 years later, age 8)
"mom I'm going out to get some groceries" I said while putting on my shoes
"are you sure you can go alone? Do you remember the way?" my mom said with a small weak smile
"ya don't worry I got this" I exclaimed with a smile
"Okay if you don't go back within an hour I'm going to be angry" my mom said with a smile
"bye mom" I said while kissing her cheek
"bye Sami, if you want you can buy yourself something as well" she said smiling
"Thanks, mom" I said while walking away from my parent's room
You see my mom has become sick 3 days ago when dad came back, he called a doctor and the doctor said it was only a cold and nothing to worry about all she needs is to rest, and dad said
(flashback time yesterday)
"Sam protect your mother while I'm gone ok?" my dad said with the same smile he always wears
"hm I'll do my best sir" I said while saluting jokingly
"good job officer I might even raise your rank if things go smoothly" my dad said jokingly
(flashback end lol)
While walking around I decided to make some friends, after all, I don't wanna be forever alone but is there someone my age in the village? I don't know I never really wanted friends because all of them might be too small for me to talk to, I'm basically an adult in a child's body… well I am acting like a child too but a mature child ok?
While walking to the main street towards the shops and started to buy stuff
"hey Samael!" someone called from my right
It was the old man who I met about one year ago, what can I say he is just a nice old man who is selling meats on his stall he sells all kinds of meats and has good prices so he is my number one choice while buying meats
"hey there joe" I told him with a smile (who is joe?)
"hello there young Samael what do you wan-" he stops and looks around confused "where is Charlotte" he asked confused
We always come to shop together and I help her with all the groceries, it's like our go-to hang out we don't really do much at home so I sometimes try to strengthen myself for my future fights especially against dad and the groceries are helping, every week we buy a bunch because dad comes back and eats like a bottomless hole, I'm now 6 years old I stated at 5 and found out that I could get a lot stronger just by training maybe this world anatomy is different? Anyway
"hm? Oh she is sick so I'm doing the chores for her" I said with a smile
"hmm" he hummed " how about Ill give you some extra meat today after all she needs food to get back to tip-top shape right?" he said with a smile while already putting the meats in a bag
He already knows what we buy, we are regulars at his stall after all and he put even more meat today than always
"There you go kid" he said while putting the bag on the stall while I paid him the regular money "thank you pleasure doing business withya" he said with a smile "can you even lift this up?" he said with a teasing smile
He has already seen me pushing myself to the limits while holding bags for my mom and that's why he teases me
"thank you for the meat old man" I said while taking the bag pretty easily and going to the next stall
I bought all the groceries and returned home
"Mom I'm home" I yelled while opening the door
I dropped the groceries to the floor from the sight I was seeing
"mom!" I said worryingly
I ran and helped my mom walk
"what are you doing out of bed?!"
(gave you a small heart attack didn't I? muahahaha)
"your dad called the snail so I wanted to pick it up" she said weakly
"mom you shouldn't be out of bed if you want to talk to him you can just call him when I'm home and tell me to bring the snail to you…"
"you are right sorry for worrying you" she said
I walked with her and she plopped onto the bed and took the groceries off the floor and put them in their usual place then I brought the phone- uh snail to mom
"here you go mom" I said with a smile
"thank you sweety" she said with the same smile
I was about to walk away but thought of something
"mom?"
"yes, sweety?"
"can I go out?"
"sure, where do you want to go?" she asked with curiosity
"I want to just buy some snacks and walk around is all" I said
"sure sweety you can go" she said with a smile "Ill just talk with your father while you are gone, when do you intend to return?" she asked
My mom and dad really trust me, I don't know if it is that they are just giving me their trust in doing things alone because they want me to be responsible or they just trust me because I act pretty mature
"Thanks, mom" I kissed her cheek "I'll return 2 hours after dark, or maybe sooner, bye mom" I said going out of the door "say hi to dad for me"
I got out of the house and got to the main street, well it's not that crowded here it's just a village but ya it was around sunset
"Hello there joe" I walked to the old man stall
"ah general kano-" *beep* we are having technical issues please stand by
"ah little Sam" the old man said with a smile "here for the weekly treat?" the old man asked with the same smile
"yes old man can I have two kilos this time around?" I asked while he started to prepare my already usual snack
"sure thing little guy" he said with a kind smile
I like joe he is a good man who is pretty wealthy and can live the rest of his days with luxury but still runs a normal stall in the village pretty cool guy if you ask me, I always act the same for everyone doesn't matter if they are a kid or old doesn't matter if they are a girl or boy I like to think that even kids are just adults who haven't learned all the adult stuff like getting money or worrying about small things, they are not stupid but yet to be smart… does that make sense? Anyway
"theeere you go" said while bringing me a bag with pullets inside "Cya later kid" he said with a small smile "oh and tell your mom fast recovery from me k?" he said with the same smile
"sure old man, see you around" I said while giving him the money before going away to a secluded place
I started to get some wood from the pile I chopped for my training and took two of the black stones I found and started a fire, then I took one of the pullets from my bag and put them on a stick and started to roast them, I had enough for about six sticks
the sun was completely down and it was now dark while the only light source was the fire not that I needed a light source to see it seems like my senses are better here than in my old world I can see in the dark can smell things pretty good too and my hearing is a lot better also, I'm already stronger now than in my old world perhaps its time to challenge dad.
I started to eat the pullets from the stick while putting another one next to the fire
"Can I have some too?" someone with a kids voice said with a cheerful voice
'!!!' my instincts took over and I turned around and punched the kid with my free hand
He fell a couple of meters away while I calmed down and saw that he was only a child damnit I needed to pay more attention to my surroundings
"What the hell was that for?!" the kid said angrily
"oh, I'm so sorry are you okay?" I said worryingly after all I hit him with double the normal force I used to knock out adults in my first world "I swear it was a mistake, I'm sorry" I said
"hm?" he looked at the bag next to me and the pullet on the fire" can I have some?" he asked with an innocent smile completely forgetting about the punch I gave him
It seems like it will live a mark for a while, I'm impressed he took it without getting knocked out or getting a fuzzy head at least
"ha?" I looked at the bag and then back at him " sure" I said with a smile which the kid returned
I sat on the ground with my pullet stick and gave him the one on the fire which was close to charring
"thanks" he said while sitting next to me and started to eat pretty fast
"what are you doing here?" I asked curiously after all kids normally don't go around alone while its dark
"igh wags runtusdfhg fhgjom mgy grhhsdpa" he said while his mouth was full
"umm, can you say that again without food in your mouth?"
*GLUP* damn that was a lot of meat
"I was running from my grandpa" he said with a smile
"why were you running from your grandpa?"
"because he always punching me and telling me to fight monkeys!" he said with an angry pout
"…" I was quiet with a deadpanned face "…what?" I asked again confused
"he is always beating me up" he said with a little less angry pout
"hahahahaha" I started to laugh "what kind of grandpa is that" I said between laughs "ahh Samael" I said after calming down and removing a tear from my eye
"What?" he asked confused
"my name idiot" I said with a smile
"ah" he exclaimed in understanding "Luffy" he said with the biggest smile I've ever seen and laughed a little "shishishishi"
Wait… 'Luffy'? you mean from one piece?!... now that I think about it the marines? pirates? I heard a lot about one piece from my weeb friend he always told me to watch it but aint way in hell I'm watching that long-ass show though he did tell me a lot of things about it when we hang out, it's about a someone who wants to become the pirate king, and there are all kinds of shit going on, maybe I can awaken my Haki I think there are two types
"Nice to meet you, how old are you Luffy?" I returned the smile
"6" he said "what about you Samael?"
"8" I smiled
We started to talk and eat into the night, Luffy seems like a nice person to be around, perhaps my first friend? I thought while talking to him
(???? POV)
Hmm? Luffy found another kid in the middle of nowhere?
I was behind a tree to see where this is gonna go and stopped myself from laughing when the kid hit Luffy
They talked and started to eat together and then
"ahh Samael" the kid said after laughing
"What?" Luffy asked confused
"my name idiot" the kid said back
"ah" Luffy exclaimed in understanding "Luffy" he said his name and then chuckled
Hmmm, 'Samael' huh? Is that Smith's brat? Perhaps I should leave Luffy alone for today, after all, he does need some friends
I thought while walking away with a small smile from the small camp
