《Reality Check (One Piece Fan-Fiction)》Chapter XXV: Scars & Near Deaths
Advertisement
(not Leo's death... just sayin)
Lyon POV
My eyes flung open as I woke up coughing into my hand but I groan in pain, it felt like my entire right side was on fire. I look over & my eyes, or well, eye widened. My entire right side was wrapped in bandages, including my right eye. I try getting up but it was to painful to even move, I grunt in pain before getting up
I noticed that there was a cloak wrapped around me so I threw it off & stood up, my eyes widened when I saw that the Gray Terminal was nothing but ashes. I can't believe this happened all overnight, its crazy. I lean on a tree for support but then I slowly fall to my knees, I clutch onto my right arm
"Damn, this fucking sucks..."
"LYON!!" I tiredly looked up & saw it was Sil, that made me crack a tiny smile "Omigod, what happened to you?!" I shrug my shoulders a little bit & lean back onto the tree
"I don't remember..." he helped me to my feet but I groan in pain again when I heard cheering "Whats with all that noise...?"
"Dogura-san told me that apparently the World Nobles, aka Celestial Dragons, are here so he went into town to go check it out." I sucked in a breath, I didn't have a good feeling about this so I looked up at Sil "Oh no! You are not going into town! Look at yourself! You can barely walk, let alone stand!"
"I don't care, I don't like the feeling I have & I just know something bad is going to happen!"
"Tch, but--"
"At least, not near the Goa Kingdom. Somewhere where I can see them but where they can't see me." he gave me this look before sighing, he picked me up & gave me a piggy back ride, he found a pretty good spot. it was hill that overlooked the bay of the Goa Kingdom & there incoming was a huge ship

"There! You got what you wanted! Can I please take you to Magra so he can take care of your wounds?!" I shake my head & raise my hand
"Not just yet." he groaned, that was when I saw a fishing boat living the docks. My eyes widened, they must be insane to do something like that, doing something small just ticks them the fuck off. I take a closer look & my eyes widened even more then I thought was possible, Sabo was on that boat
"Whats the matter?"
"Holy shit, holy shit! What does he think he's doing?!"
"Who?!" I managed to get up as I stare at Sil with a freaked out expression
"Sabo!" I spread my wings & flew towards him at full speed, I pushed back the pain & kept flying towards Sabo's boat
"Leo! Come back!!" but I didn't listen, I gasped when I saw that they shot at him once (lets just say he got his scar right now & not at the second shot). Just as they shot the second time, I grabbed Sabo, smashed through the little boat before it exploded & into the water. I tear around & see the entire boat was in flames & that Sabo was safely in my arms
I gasped for air, as did Sabo, & I looked down at him. I swore to myself when I noticed that he had a scar blasted down from his bottom left side up to the left side of his eye
"A-Are you okay...?" I ask him
"... no, but thank you, Leo." I nod my head but hiss when I felt the salty water enter my wounds "But I could ask the same thing! What happened to you?!" I put on an okay smile as I reach for his hat, that was just floating by

"N-Nothing to bad... I promise."
(SABO AIN'T DYIN TODAY...!!... not this time)
Third Person POV
Dogura was slowly making his way back to the shack with a freaked out & shocked expression, he didn't know what to tell everyone. He wasn't able to see that Leo saved Sabo cause it all just happened in a flash, it was like he disappeared when the Celestial Dragons shot at the fishing boat... it was crazy
"Yosh! Who's gonna win?!" Luffy cheered as he watched to beetles on a stump, he stopped & turned his head when he saw Dogura "Oh Dogura! You went looking for Ace, Leo & Dadan right?! Well they came back! Actually, Ace & Dadan did, not Leo but, I know he's okay!"
"Is that so? That sounds... splendid..." he motioned for Luffy to go inside, & so he did, to where everyone else was. They all look at Dogura with a weird expression to why he looked so spooked, like he seen a ghost
"Whats the matter?"
"I don't think your gonna like this one bit..." he takes a deep breath "S-Sabo... he, he's dead..." everyone's eyes widened
"What?!"
"How can that be?!"
"I-I don't know! It all happened so quickly! I couldn't tell if it was a dream or an illusion but, i-it just... it was to much!" Ace clutched his pipe & just as he was going to run out, the door was kicked open
"Leo! Let me help you!"
"I'm... i-i'm fine!" everyone gasped when they saw Leo come walking in, with a bloody, limp right arm, the bandages over his right eye coming off & Sabo being held safely in his left arm
"Leo! Sabo!" he had finally give in when he fell to his knees & onto his face but carefully put the unconscious Sabo down first "Holy shit! Magra! Get the medical equipment, asap!"
"O-On it!" they carefully set Leo on the bed & Sabo beside him while Magra was unwrapping the loosened bandages that was wrapped around Leo. He gasped when he saw how bad they were, the fire was so bad it completely burned his skin off & there was no way of that healing anytime soon "Omigoodness, I need new bandages!"
Magra rewrapped his bandages after putting some ointment on them, making him hiss in pain in his sleep. They did the same to Sabo but he was out cold so he didn't have much of a reaction except for twitching
"Silver! What happened?!"
"Leo basically saved Sabo from being killed by the World Nobles. I first found him at the edge of the forest & just as I was going to take him here, he told me that he didn't have a good feeling. That bad feeling being Sabo. I'm not so sure what happened to Leo though, with all those burns."
"It probably happened during the fire. We saw him run pass us but that was it..." Ace muttered as he looked at the two unconscious people lying down, Luffy sniffed & wiped away the tears that had appeared when he started crying
"They're going to be alright... right?" they all look at each other, Ace sighs
"Of course they are." was all he said
'They wouldn't die & leave us, mostly Leo. He's been through a lot more for being a pirate, but then again... Sabo is a noble...'
(there you go, I was going to continue this but then again... I fucking suck at this, plus I apologize if I kinda rushed this or made it to short)

Level Up Hero!
In a world where the gods' gift a chosen few with great powers, Sam Shepard is among the weakest of the weak. His crappy healing ability can’t even cure minor injuries without having to drain Sam’s own life-force to do it. Hero society doesn't think he's useful, and after failing to heal those he was tasked to save, Sam couldn't help but agree. It’s why he quit. But it turns out that giving up the hero life isn’t easy, not when one’s caught in the machinations of the gods themselves. After Sam gets pulled into rescuing the hero, Thunder, he inherits a strange power from her; the training system that taught her how to become a top hero. It apparently holds the secret to leveling up one's power, a feat no one knew was possible. Not that it'll be easy to achieve... A series of challenging missions and the occasional hero lesson from the system’s creator guarantee a lot of cuts and bruises in Sam's immediate future. But at least he finally gets the chance to go from zero to hero. Oh, yeah, there's also ghastly horrors and megalomaniac super-villains to contend with on Sam’s path to becoming the symbol of hope that humanity needs.

Fat Boy Hero
Rueben Burger is a high school student and he is severely obese. He also suffers from a penchant for doing the right thing even if it means placing himself in a difficult or compromising position. Which is how Rueben finds himself in an apartment that is larger on the inside than it should be, about to be fired at by a weapon he has never seen the likes of in a building that is on fire. Super powers! The result of his sojourn in the burning building. Now Rueben has a few decisions to make. Does he become the hero he has always dreamed of being, or does he stay out of the fight to keep his Grandmother safe? Does Rueben give up his power to be the skinny kid he has desperately longed to be? Find out this and much more in the first book of the Fat Boy Hero Series. -History of FBH- Fat Boy Hero is a story long in the making. The idea came from my love of hero stories, but the lack of relatable heroes. By that i mean there were no, or few heroes that dealt with weight gain. Something I have and am dealing with after leaving the Marine Corps. So Fat Boy Hero was born. Check out the link below to listen to an episode of The Round Table Podcast where I brainstormed the idea with the hosts and special guest Michael underwood. http://www.roundtablepodcast.com/2013/03/workshop-episode-53-guest-host-michael-r-underwood/ This book is a side project and will be updated as time permits. I hope you do not find this too off-putting.
