CHAPTER ZERO

(1/3)

Drummer awoke, her eyes slowly focusing in on the decaying wooden planks suspended just above her face.

Turning to her left, a scream nearly escaped her at the sight of a muscular stranger sitting up in the bottom bunk accross from her. The stranger, meeting her eyes and lurching forward, held a finger to her mouth.

Drummer began to take in the features of this girl: tall, robustly muscular, orange hair spilling over her face. The girl leaned forward toward Drummer, whispering to stay quiet. She was seemingly vibrating with excitement.

The girl silently pointed a finger just above Drummer, guiding her attention to the bunk above hers.

As the girl whispered, Drummers eyes began to drift around the room. Her eyes quickly locked onto the camera mounted on the wall just behind the other girl. Her eyes darting across the room, she spotted several more dotting the walls.

Panic setting in, drummer sprang out of bed with a visceral shriek, frantically interrogating the strange girl where they were.

The girl instantly shot up to meet her, wrapping both arms around Drummer and masking her mouth. Drummer tried to wrestle out, and continued her now muffled screaming, but they were soon interrupted.

As the girls struggled, a third voice murmered from above.

Spinning around and looking up to the bunk above, they were met with a cautious stare from a beautiful set of baby pink eyes. Deep red braids framing her perfect face, she cautiously spoke, asking the girls who they were.

Drummer, mouth still covered, was too stunned to answer. The muscular girl, dropping Drummer to the floor, emphatically introduced herself as the Ultimate Personal Trainer. She manically extended a hand to the top bunk, eyes gleaming with admiration for the new girl.

Ignoring PT's attempt at a handshake, the girl looked down to drummer. Drummer, flushed from the situation, quietly introduced herself from the floor.

Before the new girl could introduce herself, PT exclaimed that she knew exactly who she was, the Ultimate Social Media Star.

Clearly being a massive fan, PT was thrashing with excitement. She barrated Social Media with questions and compliments, blocking all of Drummer's occasional attempts to chime in.

Drummer, giving up on socializing, began to analyze the room while the other two chatted.

She silently noted the lack of windows, the empty bunkbed above PT, the monitor in the corner, and most importantly, the many, many cameras dotted around the cabin.

Social Media, growing tired of the incessant praise, eventually found her eyes wandering to the cameras as well, immediately cutting her dialogue with PT short.

After Social media pointed out they were under survaillence, PT's attention was finally turned onto their situation as well.

With all 3 girls now in panic, they cautiously agreed that they would test the front door together. Unsure of what would be on the otherside, they approached the cabin door at a snails pace.

PT led the way as the three made their way out onto the front porch of the cabin.

Towering pines surrounded the girls on all sides, cameras darted along their trunks. Looking to their right, three other cabins followed parallel a wide trail curving through the forest, branching off into several smaller paths. The girls stood in silence, each taking in the foreign enviroment.

Suddenly, Social Star jumped, pointing out a lone girl sitting on the stairs of the furthest cabin, who had gone completely unnoticed by the other two.

She suggested that they go greet the stranger and possibly inquire about their situation, but Drummer disagreed. She insisted that the three stay at the cabin and wait for help.

After facing minor pressure from the other girls, Drummer caved, joining them in their trek to meet the strange girl.

As they approached the cabin, the girl sat straight up, wide brown eyes veiled behind large round lenses staring in fear.

Nervously gripping the ribbons in her hair, she shifted around on the steps, clearly very uncomfortable with the girls approaching. Nonetheless, as they approached, she shakely introduced herself as the Ultimate Marine Biologist.

After brief introductions, Drummer questioned Marine Biologist if there was anybody else in her cabin. Marine biologist cautiously explained that when she woke up there was one girl with her, and that the other two beds were empty when she awoke.

The other girl had apparently set off without her while Marine Biologist waited for others in the cabin. She had seen nobody else since then.

As the group hesitantly discussed their situation, a smooth, deep voice called out to them from much further down the trail.

The girls span, their eyes falling on a tall, slim man with long blonde hair, waving to them from a distance.

He approached the group through a clearing in the brush, his laid-back swagger already had Drummer uneasy. His laid back attitude continued as he introduced himself to the group as the Ultimate Salesman.

He explained to them that a small group had already made their way further down the trail and gathered at a nearby lake.

While Social Media and PT were thrilled by the prospect of other people, Drummer and Marine Biologist were not nearly as trusting of this mysterious stranger.

Casually explaining that he had come back to check the cabins for others, his cold eyes met Drummers, sending a chill down her spine.

Salesman quickly picked up on Drummers feelings toward him, calling her out on being so quiet through a smirk.

Drummer, not seeking a confrontation, exused her silence as nerves.

Caving once again to the pressures of the group, Drummer agreed to set off further down the trail to meet the others.

There are so many things in my mind right now and i wanto to start by sayin

People I'm losing my mind (once again )

So you Know how chapter 0 was announced, and it would be like a a 4 pages long about Shinichi before the date in tropical land

Well! Apparently, (i read in some places but im not sure how true it is)he went there by himself to scout the place and saw KAITO AND AOKO! And not only did he thought it would be nice to do the same with ran

I looks like HE IMAGINED THEMSELVES IN THE SAME SITUATIONS

so KaiAo are so close that Shinichi thought they were a couple???!!!!

I'm dying

Also it looks like Furuya would be there too like watching were the illegal transaction would be taking place.

For me this oppens some questions, if he was there observing, did he see the whole Shinichi to Conan transformation? Wasn’t he around when the org tried to kill him?

This 0 chapter is going to make my week!

I love it already!!!!!

That's it! Thanks for reading my descent to madness again 😅❤️

[startswith0]

I don't wanna be that annoying bish and I'm really entitled for saying this but like what was the point of making a comic of what happened in the past as a flashback, just dragging out all the details as much as possible, not exactly touching up on their present dating status because let's face it whatever he did or not do to plan the date back when they were friends some billion 6 months ago, it doesn't change anything really. Maybe I'm not a romantic as I was in highschool being satisfied with flashback crumbs

When I would be more hyped with a date in the present because they're actually a couple now

Just feels like a waste of opportunity. But then I'm not a middle aged man who's trying to milk his manga as much as possible. Maybe I don't understand the importance

What next? Another comic next year, of Ran shopping for her outfit before their tropical land date?lol

I knew I wasn't gonna be impressed as soon as i heard it was going to be another added detail of their flashback. Boring...

[chuckeroo777]

Dungeon food! Having ravenously devoured both the anime and manga, I felt like re-reading the manga and giving some thoughts. (And posting funny pictures.) Spoilers ahoy!

Chapter 0

So, chapter 0 is a pilot of sorts. Maybe there's a proper term for it, but I am not exactly a manga expert. It does a pretty good job of setting the tone, even if still rough around the edges.

Most of the character designs are already done, but Senshi looks particularly rough in this whole thing. Not that it really matters. Chilchuck is the only one even mentioned by name. Izutsumi is the focus character here, even if no one is polite enough to mention her name.

Laios would never. I don't remember the party having this much chutzpah in canon.

Oh, sure, NOW you're interested. Please stop staring at me like that.

What makes you think they were sane to begin with?

Behold, a dark twisted universe where they actually ate the fish-man.

Man, where was Izutsumi when we needed her? She'd have been great against the dragon.

Anyway, that was chapter 0. Short but sweet, gives a good overview of the vibe, especially early on. Can't wait to start reading the manga proper to see more adventures with this sassy cat-girl.

What do you mean she doesn't appear in the manga proper until chapter 42?

Yasopp and Usopp

This clip from Strong World: Episode 0 gets me each and every time.

Why?

Because I think of the fact that Yasopp eventually did leave Usopp and Banchina because of his dream, and it’s so amazing how much Usopp resembles Yasopp here (minus the nose). Like, seriously. Yasopp’s hairstyle is so retro but still has that Usopp pre-timeskip vibe. In the manga Usopp sits on the cliff/hill and sees the Romance Dawn trio approaching Syrup Village (Chapter 23? I think?).

Yasopp is sitting on that same-ish(?) hill.

Shanks is wearing that same d*mn straw hat.

It makes me wish we could get a movie or special of the Red-hair Pirates’ early days, and see how much alike Yasopp and Usopp truly are. Because c’mon, I can’t believe Yasopp didn’t at least have a few hiccups along the way. The old geezer can barely face his son right now. Shaky knees and all. Might get island diseases too.

Although this is irrelevant…Usopp and Yasopp are both fire signs (Leo and Aries). They both love fish of the season. They are both great sharpshooters/snipers. They both have observation haki (yes, Yasopp’s is advanced but still…)…and more we have yet to see.

Also, what’s another thing worth noting is that no matter how selfish Usopp may come off (although he isn’t selfish at all), I can most certainly say that it speaks volumes that when the RD trio was approaching, Usopp had his pirate trio with him. Meaning that, maybe this represents that Yasopp is selfish in his journey, but Usopp isn’t. He’s able to connect with the others in the way his father isn’t.

When Shanks approached Yasopp, Yasopp was alone. Meaning again, that not only is Usopp not a selfish guy, but he is definitely a true leader. His dad doesn’t necessarily lead (I don’t see it in him—even at commander status and what he did in RED); at least in the sense of what I’m thinking. There’s something better with Usopp than what his dad ever had going for himself.

Leave it to shonen manga fans to define (in a half-baked way) what true masculinity and superiority looks like…whatever.

Chapter 0

Louie D. Goodienough lay flat on his back in the dirt, watching captain Olimar Tinkerman fuck off back home in the only working spaceship on this weird ass planet.

Because of course this happened.

Of course his cheapskate boss didn’t make sure the passenger compartment was secure.

Or maybe his cheapskate boss found out about that very expensive cargo he ate, and told the bitchy AI to toss him as soon as the job was done.

Louie let out a deep sigh, closed his eyes, and relaxed into the dirt. He savored the memory of those golden Pikpik carrots. They ended up being pretty expensive even with his five finger discount. Four finger? No yeah five, still five. For sure.

Sure like Olimar! Olimar was a good captain and a good coworker and a good friend. He would come back as soon as he realized Louie was missing for sure. The ship would surely have some kind of alert or warn….

Louie’s eyes shot open.

The ship’s AI would be in charge of the alerts. And if it did throw him out on purpose there’s no way it would let Olimar know!

That BITCH.

Louie took a minute to indulge of fantasies of trashing that stupid speaker system.

Plus, the minute Olimar gets back home he’ll be out of there before anyone can say a damn thing to him. Louie saw a picture of Olimar’s wife, Tarrey. Damn. I mean damn. (As the narrator, damn. Good job @ultraspicyspray thank you for your service.) Louie would be running too.

Louie let out a low, long suffering groan. As he glared at the chemtrail left behind by his only way back to Hocotate he knew that no one was going to come for him for a long time, if at all. He knew the president wouldn’t come for him even if he didn’t know about Louie’s lie. It was honestly a sarcastic whatever answer and the guy totally accepted it. Louie had honestly been hoping for the company to go under just to screw over the president, cuz honestly fuck’em. Well he felt that way until he got to know Olimar. Who knew he was such a decent guy? Well fuck’im too anyways. Lucky bastard.

He knew he would need to get up eventually. Probably sometime soon. The sun was already starting to set and he needed to find shelter and a way to breathe on this stupid planet and Goddammit he needed to eat SOMETHING good for this day to be worthwhile.

Louie was still glaring at the fading smoke when he heard something; quiet at first. The rumble of an engine. It was odd though, it didn’t sound like a ship. It sounded like his truck from back home, but then it got louder, closer. Turning his head he saw a vehicle in the distance. He’d seen some of those around, sure, but not up close. Weren’t those like really big though?

And at the very moment Louie finished that thought, something, no, someone opened the door and stepped out.

Louie’s head was spinning, probably because this was the first time he moved his head since falling and he fell from quite a height. Such things have consequences, after all. How else could he explain how it kept coming closer and closer without seeming to close any distance. It has to be a hallucination or something. It just has to be. Too cute to be a native of any planet this freaky.

But then the thing put its hands to its mouth and bellowed:

Helllooooooo???

“WHAT THE HELL HOW CAN ANYONE BE THAT LOUD.” Louie thought. They must have had some kind of amplifier. The sound was so loud that it made his ears ring and his already throbbing head more…throbby. It’s hard to think when your head hurts. It was a miracle that his translator was able to make out the hollered greeting, something like Giyan? Louie didn’t know. But he knew that if he had a choice between trying to survive the night alone on the surface with whatever injuries he had or hitching a ride with some native cutie he had to admit the second was a more appealing option.

Without much thought, he blew his whistle to let them know where he was.

And it was at this moment Louie knew he fucked up.

Because when the stranger perked up and started to run towards him he could feel those footsteps in his bones, he could see her grow to tower over everything around him but the tall trees, and he realized quite a few things about the natives of this freaky planet. Most importantly?

They were fucking HUGE.

What. the FUCK. Is THAT????

Thank you for reading my first piece of fanfiction! I was looking through the pikmin tag sometime after I played pikmin 4 and found @ultraspicyspray ‘s art and developed feelings for the little blue weirdo who had already charmed me by being a little weirdo who likes to eat. This au is basically “but what if I found him and was nice to him???” Anyways I hope you enjoyed! I’m looking forward to writing more!

Prologue

Mona sighed deeply she had just got off the phone with her father and honestly she was already tried. Times like these she would like to go on a swim but she had work to deal with and along with somehow getting put in the house warden poation as a freshmen she's got to take over the lounge from the current manger that her father had running it.

Ulrik her ever important friend (not that she ever said it a loud, because she worried what that would do to what they have established) stood beside her his presence a bit of a comfort as she watched him snarl at how dusty the inside of the vault was. And personally she agreed.

Shifting the glasses higher upon her nose she picked up a some papers and ingored the sound of something crashing from outside the vault since she figured one of the twins broke something or another. Ulrik who would have checked on the mater seemed to confirm her supission mer moments later.

Rolling her eyes she wonder how she's been able to deal with those two over the years. But continue looking over all the papers and even old contracts from when her father was here, why they were left here, most likely one of the her father's twins enforcers. Again she was so greatful that her boys were much more mangable than their own father and uncle.

Mona continued to look though the old papers that were older than herself when a sound made her jump. And yet it went off like it was slightly muffled alarm of sorts. And it seemed what ever was going off drew the attention of her male companions as all came into the vulat. It least it meant she wasn't the only one hearing it.

She looked about to try and find just where it was coming from only to realize just where it was sighing in annoyance she was about to turn to her original form only to feel a hand in her shoulder. Looking up ulrik reached up to get what ever was up there and seemed to pull down a box.

Though the sight of this dust metal box enough to make her eyes widen as she reached out to take it from the male and quickly moved outside the vault since she wanted to place it on the desk and look for something to clean it off.

In which she did though it seemed her boys wanted to see what was in the ringing box. And once clean she reached into her pocket and pulled out a keyring with a few different keys on them the most important one was a small golden key her father had given her just before she left her home telling her she'll know what its used for.

And this must be what it was for, after all a golden key must be for a golden box. So puting the key in she turn it, though before she could fully open said box ulrik the again stop her.

Mona sighed. "Ulirk. you don't need to stop me after all its not like my father would have something that would hurt me in his vault." At least as far as she knows anyway plus if he she was pretty sure he would have warned her of such things.

Though she didn't think to much on the mater before she was quickly distracted since it seemed Clemens had wrap an arm around her so he could pull her flushed against him while it seemed danni had wrap an arm around ulrik shoulder.

Annoyed she looked up to the male that towerd over her (but than again in their human forms all three males towered over her since they were all over six feet) "what is it now?" She huffed annoyed with them before danni responded ans she looked over to him who seemed to be acting as a weight to make ulrik hunch over slightly.

"Since sharky here is worried about your safety why don't me and Clemens keep you safe, and he can open the box? After all if he's so worried that should be fine." Danni was smirking in a way that Mona didn't trust, after all she knew him well enough to know he was most likely would give her a migraine.

Glancing upwards at Clemens who still had her in a half hug of sorts. Glad she knew he was the one about to speak next, Clemens had been looking at his brother nodded and looked down at her. "Wouldn't that be fine? Being safe between us while ulrik keeps what ever dust bunnies are in an old box?" The male chuckled.

But before Mona could respond to that she winced slightly at the grip on her hips being a bit tighter than she would like and it seemed ulrik who had decided to make a sound that had her turn to him. One you would think she would be use to but it always seemed the twins had a way of helping her get ulrik to do what she wanted... to a point.

None the less she got what she wanted and personally that's all that maters as she manged to slip out of the right grip on her and moved to get back to the important issue of the Golden ringing box. A box that still hadn't stop ringing as she ingored the boys behind her while they seemed to be dealing with guy things as popped it open.

Honestly she wasn't quite sure what to expected but some sort of fancy alarm which after a moment she manged to turn off and danni seemed to take from her as he seemed to want to mess with it. And since it didn't seem important (for now anyway) she let him.

No what she did wonder was why they was a contract scroll here. And thus picked it up and begin reading it contents. Humming she went though every line and detail but what had her raising a brow was the date and names on the bottom. After all this was a bit of a mystery. But she knew one thing she could use this.

"Boys~" closing the scroll as she didn't hide her smrik while turning to her men. Said men paused what ever they seemed to be doing and looked her her straighting out to hear what she said. "It seems we've got connections to make." Mona couldn't help the chuckle that left her as she knew she would beat her father in something.
