Lyon POV
I look over & see that Makino was having a full on conversation with Luffy so I sigh happily & lean backwards, I look over at the other two & see that they looked scared & extremely uncomfortable with both mine & their (Makino & the Mayor) presence
"So, how long has Luffy lived up here again?" I asked, I noticed that they tensed up
"Um, I think its b-been 6 months." Sabo answered, I took my sunglasses off & set them on my hat & flashed a smile at them
"Hey, there's no need to feel uncomfortable, I won't bite... yet." I look at them & saw they were shaking "I'm joking I'm joking, I won't!"
"Uh... i-if you don't mind me asking b-but, are you an actual p-pirate?"
"If so, what's it like?"
"To the first one, yes I am & the second, oh man, it feels like freedom." I looked at Sabo & saw his eyes begin to shine "Its so amazing just to be out on the sea, doing whatever you wanna do & having fun while doing it! No rules, nothing holding you back...! You can just be yourself without anyone telling you not too!"
"R-Really?!" I tapped the tip of his hat & smiled
"Heck yeah..." I look at Ace & see that he had his arms crossed & was looking away with a scowl on his face... he somehow, really reminds me of "... Atami..."
"What?" he said rather rudely
"Um, I know this is a weird question but, do you have an siblings, a sister?" he looked at me weirdly
"No, why?"
"Your facial features look so familiar, h-how about last name?" he sighed
"Portgas, Portgas D." my eyes widened as I took that information in, my mind was still processing what he just said when I heard someone call my name, so I look over & see it was Makino
"Lyon-san! It is you!" I got up & dusted myself off before being developed into a hug by her "I've missed you so much my dear boy!" what I didn't expect was that she started kissing my forehead & cheek
"W-Whats with the kisses?!"
"Its my love for you!" I blushed & saw that Luffy was laughing, I glare at him but then I felt her kiss above my right eye "You have heterochomia?" I rub the back of my neck & nod my head

"Yeah... thanks to two little girls, you could say, they helped me gain a lot of confidence." she squealed & hugged me again before lighting up & digging through her basket she brought with her, she then pulled out a green hoodie
(the blue overcoat is what Leo wears)
"I made this for you, I had this feeling you would show up." I took it from her & the hoodie felt super soft, I smile up at her & hug her
"Thank you." she went over to the other two as I took off my blue overcoat & then jacket I was wearing underneath it, I was wearing a singlet & you could see all the scars I had, I was gonna put the hoodie on when I felt someone touch one of the scars I had
"Whoa! How did you get those?" I look down & see it was both Sabo & Luffy
"That depends on which one your talking about, I have to many I lost count." that's when I noticed he was pointing at the tattoo on my left shoulder "Oh that, that's not entirely a scar, its a tattoo of the pirate crew I'm apart of."
"Really?! What crew?!"
"Whitebeard."
"I heard of him, apparently he was the only to actually match up to Pirate King's strength." Sabo explained, that got Luffy going
"ARE YOU THAT STRONG?!"
"Not as strong as pops but, sure." they then walked away as I put the hoodie on, it was very cozy I could fall asleep while wearing it. As I put my overcoat back on I saw that Ace was blushing so red when Makino was showing him the shirt she made for him
"He looks so embarrassed." Sabo said with a laugh
"His face is so red!" Luffy added, I chuckled when Ace yelled at them but Makino scolded him for moving
"I'm gonna get you guys after this." & they started laughing, I kneel down to their level & place my hands on their heads
"Now you two, you should stop teasing Ace. How would it feel if you were in his shoes?"
"His shoes look to small." I snorted & Makino giggled "I mean look at them!" I shook my head

"That's not what I mean, say, you were being made fun of, that doesn't feel nice, now does it?" I noticed that they looked at each other before hanging their heads low "Sure you do it in a joking manner but, it just doesn't feel right to laugh at someone."
"Okay." when Makino was done with Ace, he started chasing after the two with a pipe in his hand & was threatening to kill them
"Jeez, is he always like this?" I ask Dadan, she shrieked at my question
"H-HUH?! Oh uh, y-yeah, he's very temperamental & can easily get angered."
"I can tell. I apologize if I frightened you, I had no intention on doing so. I just wanted to give my little brother a surprise." I look over at her & sweat dropped when I saw that she started crying, I scratch the back of my neck "Are you okay?"
"You are so polite...!"
"I know, you already told me that." I heard growling so I look over & see Pochi & Sil growling & snarling at each other, I roll my eyes & whistle "Sil! Calm down, your a snow leopard while he's just a damn dog!" he trotted over to me & I snapped my fingers, making him turn into a human
"He said mean things to me!"
"& what did you say to him?"
"Meaner things!"
"Like what?"
"That I'll eat him!!" I roll my eyes & face palm before shaking my head in disapproval "& I mean it! I will eat you!!"
"No you won't you moron!"
(Time Skip)
The sun has just set & we were inside, Makino had made her delicious food & everyone was loving it. I had been strumming a ukulele for awhile while eating a few pieces of my food, Makino noticed this & sat down beside me
"Do you play?"
"Hmm?"
"Do you play?"
"Oh, um, I used to. I think I'm a little rusty though." she suddenly lit up again like a child on christmas "What? Whats with that look?"
"Can you play something?!"
"I-I don't know..." now she just had this look in her eye that was begging me to play... in this silent way "Okay okay, I will." I strum a little & try thinking of a song, I hum to myself in approval in which one
(House of Gold - Twenty One Pilots)
She asked me, "Son, when I grow old,
Will you buy me a house of gold?
And when your father turns to stone,
Will you take care of me?"
She asked me, "Son, when I grow old,
Will you buy me a house of gold?
And when your father turns to stone,
Will you take care of me?"
I will make you queen of everything you see,
I'll put you on the map,
I'll cure you of disease.
Let's say we up and left this town,
And turned our future upside down.
We'll make pretend that you and me,
Lived ever after happily.
She asked me, "Son, when I grow old,
Will you buy me a house of gold?
And when your father turns to stone,
Will you take care of me?"
I will make you queen of everything you see,
I'll put you on the map,
I'll cure you of disease.
Ohhhh...
And since we know that dreams are dead,
And life turns plans up on their head,
I will plan to be a bum,
So I just might become someone.
She asked me, "Son, when I grow old,
Will you buy me a house of gold?
And when your father turns to stone,
Will you take care of me?"
I will make you queen of everything you see,
I'll put you on the map,
I'll cure you of disease.
When I finished I noticed that everyone was looking at me, I slowly put my glasses on & move my hat down so I didn't have to see their eyes on me. I slowly heard them start clapping & cheering, it still didn't help
"Why are you ashamed?! That was amazing!"
"I didn't like it..." some others complimented me before going back to eating but spat out their food, I was confused at first but I paled when I saw who it was that scared them shitless "G-Garp..."
"Virus Archer Lyon, what do you think your doing here?" he said in a menacing voice as he cracked his knuckles, in a fit of panic I smashed the ukulele on his head, jumped over him & ran outside
"I REGRET HIGHLY REGRET THIS!!!"
"WHERE DO YOU THINK YOUR GOING, PIRATE SCUM?!?!"
"Run Leo! Run!"

Incursions
This blurb concerns Incursions book 1: Incarceration. If you could buy superhuman abilities, but they might kill you—or worse—would you do it? Ten years ago, in a world not so different from our own, people with powerful abilities appeared. The new powers were dangerous, dangerous to acquire—dangerous to have—dangerous to wield. World governments raced to find and eradicate the abilities and those who possess them while using the media to rule by fear. Whereas corporations sought to exploit the abilities for profit. Raz Owens was living the dream - a rising star at a job he enjoys, a girlfriend he loves, but it all comes crashing down when Raz disregards his late father's advice. He is pulled into a chaotic underworld of clandestine labs, shadow organizations, and super-powered criminals. Used as a human test subject in a place where few survive the day, he must last long enough to escape. His only advantage? A power that seems nearly useless—a heads-up display. Contains: monsters, violence, death, dismemberment, gamelit, superpowers, superpower consequences, good guys, bad guys, good guys who might be bad guys, bad guys who think they are good guys, good guys that might go bad, bad guys that might turn good, guns for hire, competence, incompetence, continence, incontinence, conspiracies, and some of what I just said wasn't true. This story is written in third person limited POV. That means you can expect to know many of the thoughts and inner dialog of one character, and only see the actions of other characters. This POV does include scenes without the main character, and thus the reader can and will know things the main character does not. Further, this means characters act on what they know, which is almost always less than the reader knows. Something else to know. These books do not hold your hand. If you're reading it and thinking "Gosh, why aren't 'they' doing some 'obvious' thing." Bad news. You probably missed something that explains exactly that. If you're seeking a light read that doesn't ask much of you as the reader, you're invited and very welcome to come on in, but this might not be the story for you.

Economicalopoly
Humanity had gotten this far. How far, might you be wondering? Quite far indeed. The world had effectively become an ecumenopolis, almost; not in real life at least, in Economicalopoly of course! More on that later, in our story the main character is Charlie. Charlie was an exceptionally talented young man, the key word being 'was'. He was an incredibly unmotivated individual who generally steered clear from other 'Homo sapiens' as he put it.
