One Shot – Gladiator
Part 1“Waa… wa…” sound of baby crying could be heard
“Hm?? Did I hear baby’s crying??”
George, the trainer/teacher of all new Gladiators was checking around the seats in the Coliseum and found a baby crying on a seat of the Coliseum.
“Why is there a baby here?? Did his parents got too high during the match and forgot him??!!! Eh??!!!” sigh* Hold the baby in his arms “What forgetful parents you got..” Then he notices a name tag around the baby’s neck ‘Takahashi Minami’ “Oh! So you’re name is Takahashi Minami, what a good name you’ve got!”
George decided to keep the baby until he found the baby’s parents.Few months have passed but George wasn’t able to find any news about the baby’s parents at all…
Sigh* George looked at the sleeping Minami and smile, in these few months George has grown attached to the baby.
“I can’t find your parents little one.. but I guess I could keep you.”><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><
8 Years Later…From then on when Minami has grown old enough to fight, George, trained him to become a Gladiator since that is the condition of keeping Minami with him from his boss.
As usual Minami is training alone since George has to attend other new Gladiators.
“Ha! Ha!” Minami shouted while swinging his sword powerfully.
“Kya!” a girl screamed, surprised and fall on the ground landing on her butt.
Seeing this Minami dropped the sword and hurried to the girl’s side.
“I’m sorry.. Are you okay??” He helps the girl stand.
“Un, I’m fine. I was just surprised..” the girl answered shyly.
“Yokatta..” Minami sigh in relief
“Ne, ne.” the girl pokes Minami “Can you play with me?? I’m bored and I’ve got no one to play with”
“I’m sorry but I still got training to do..”
“Onegai..” the girl asks again and this time also showing her best puppy eyes to Minami.
Seeing this Minami can’t say no… “sigh* Fine…”
“Yatta!!” The girl cheered and smiles widely
“I’m Maeda Atsuko but call me Acchan, what about you?”
“I’m Takahashi Minami and you can call me Minami”
Then the two kids play happily together until its sunset and now they were resting on a bench.
“Thank you Minami. I have a really fun day today” Acchan says thankfully
“Nah, I also had fun so I should be thanking you instead”
Suddenly Acchan heard a voice calling her name “Acchan! Acchan! Where are you?? Time to go home!!”
Hearing this Acchan immediately stood up from the bench.
“Sorry.. I’ve got to go home now” Acchan said sadly
“It’s okay, I hope we can play together again” Minami says and smiled handsomely at Acchan causing her to blush
Then Acchan kiss Minami on the cheek “Un! Let’s play again next time! Bye!” then ran to the person calling her name.
Minami was too stunned to say bye to Acchan.. he just sat there hours and hours before he finally go home.
Castle“Acchan…”
“Hm??”
“Who is he?? Your boyfriend??”
Acchan blushed and replied “No.. he’s just a friend..”
“Then why did I see you kissing him??”
Acchan face turn as red as tomato “It.. it’s just a thank you gift since he played with me all day today”
“Hoho.. Are you sure only that??” asks the squirrel like girl while wriggling her eyebrows.
“Mou! Yuko, stop teasing me!!!” Acchan then ran into her bedroom.
“Yuko, what happened to the princess??” asks one of the royal maids.
“Hm?? Nothing~~ It’s just it seems like the little princess is in love~~” answers Yuko as she skips to the kitchen to grab Acchan’s dinner.
The next day the Queen has been assassinated when she went to the local market to see the locals. The whole kingdom mourns for losing a good Queen, the King fall in to depression and the princess was very sad and cries every day. From then on the King bands the princess from going out of the castle for even a step because he is afraid of losing his beloved daughter too…
The King kept himself busy with work and spend less and less time with the princess because seeing the princess reminds him of his beloved wife… The king will do anything that will keep him busy and that includes war… it was a suggestion by Snape Rindervous, the King’s sister’s son which is his nephew. Snape was known to be a man with greed and there are a lot of bad rumors about him but now the King has somehow start to take his advices like starting war with other countries, drink alcohol and have fun every day.
The King has started to take a liking to killing so he made a new rule for the matches between the Gladiators… which is fight to death… only winners will stay alive while losers shall be dead…><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><
10 Years Later…Takahashi Minami is now an 18 year old handsome young man. He has become a super rookie in the world of the Gladiator. But you could see coldness in his dark, brown eyes…
In the Gladiator’s world, there are no friends… Friends today could end up as an enemy the next day… what awaits in friendship is only betrayal…
Minami is really skilled but he doesn’t trust anyone easily, he only trusts his teacher, George, and his only 2 best friends Kojima Riku, a doctor, and Minegishi Kuu, a mysterious traveler.
Minami used to have friends… Gladiator friends… but they end up killing each other… From then on Minami stopped making friends because he didn’t want to experience the pain of betrayal from friends anymore… it hurts more than any kind of physical wounds… it stays in his heart…
As usual Minami is training alone then suddenly someone calls his name.
“Oi! Takahashi, your turn in the next 2 hours prepare yourselves and you better win because I’m going to recommend you to the King”
“Samuel, you didn’t have to tell me, I’ll win the match.” Minami said coldly and continue his training.
“kk, I won’t bother you now bye”
Samuel is the dealer in bet of the matches, he collect bets and tells the Gladiators when their turn will be.
When Minami is going to go to the Coliseum someone called him.
“Takamina, are you gonna hold back on your opponent??”
“Of course not… since it's a death match, Kuu…” Minami replied coldly
“Just asking, anyway Good Luck don’t die yet~~” Kuu replied cheerily and left.
ColiseumThe dealer is calling out to the crowd to make it exciting. “Welcome Everyone!!! To the Coliseum!!! Today our fighters will be the super rookie versus the ripper!!!” “Woo!!!” crowds cheering.
“Everyone has you placed your bet?? Are you ready?? Then let’s welcome the fighters today!!!”
Coliseum’s Waiting RoomMinami was going to go but then was stopped by a hand, Minami then turn to see the owner of the hand… George.
“Be careful” George said with concern
Minami smiled weakly and replied “I know..” and left.
George felt sad seeing Minami like this but there is nothing he can do about it…
Sorry kid… If I wasn’t the one who picked you up maybe you wouldn’t be suffering now…Minami is really tired of killing but there is nothing he can do. The moment you’ve become a Gladiator then for the rest of your life you’ll remain a Gladiator it’s an absolute rule here in the kingdom. Minami took a deep breath and stepped into the Coliseum.
><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><
CastleI wonder how is he now… I really miss him… I want to see him again… A girl was looking out through the window with sad eyes.
“Acchan, Acchan!” a squirrel like girl called out to her.
“Yes, Yuko? Why are you so excited?? You’ve got a date with your boyfriend again today??” Acchan teased
Yuko blushed and replies happily “Yea.. I’m having a date with my Nyan Nyan today”
Acchan suddenly have lonely eyes “Good for you… enjoy your date”
“Oh! I remember now!! I came here because your majesty, the King, as called for you!!!”
“Eh?! Really???”
“Yes, so hurry and go now”
“Okay, I got it!”
It was really rare for her father to call her so Acchan was really happy as she hurriedly rushes into the throne room.
Throne Room“Your majesty, princess Atsuko has arrived”
“Call her in”
“As you wish your majesty”
Acchan then ran in and hug her dad tightly “Dad!”
“Hoho… so full of energy aren’t we??”
“Hehe.. BTW, dad why did you call for me??”
“I’ll bring you to the Coliseum today with me and have some fun”
“Really??!! What will we do there??”
“It’s a secret~ you’ll know when we arrive there”
“Your majesty, the carriage is now ready” a pale, skinny middle-aged man called out to the King.
“Oh, Snape. Good Job, now accompany me and the princess to the Coliseum”
“As you wish my lord” Snape said and bow to the King.
Hearing that Snape is coming too Acchan frowned… she didn’t like Snape because he is the one who keep telling his father to have war with other countries and she didn’t like it at all… Some Generals told the King that Snape is bad and the King shouldn’t listen to him but they were all executed…
Outside of ColiseumThe King and the princess have reached the Coliseum.
“Welcome, your majesty and princess. We have prepared special seats for your majesty and please allow me to show your majesty the way” Samuel said politely and bowing to the King and the princess.
“Okay, lead us to our seats and who are the fighters today?” asks the King
“It would be our super rookie versus the ripper, your majesty”
“A rookie?? That would be no match isn’t it??” asks the King frowning.
Huh?? Fighters? Match?? What are they talking about?? Acchan is thinking to herself.
“No, no, no. Your majesty, he may be young but he is fierce and very skillful”
“Hm… Are you sure??” asks the King doubtfully
“Yes your majesty.”
“Fine, I’ll believe you but better not disappoint me. I’ll place 100,000 Gold on that rookie.”
“Hai! Kashikomarimashita, your majesty” Samuel answers and bows slightly.
What is going on?? Bet?? Gambling??? Why did dad bring me here??ColiseumAfter leading the King and the princess to their seats Samuel leaves to collect the bets from the crowds.
“Welcome Everyone!!! To the Coliseum!!! Today our fighters will be the super rookie versus the ripper!!!” “Woo!!!” crowds cheering.
“Everyone has you placed your bet?? Are you ready?? Then let’s welcome the fighters today!!!”
“First the ripper, Jack!!!!” the announcer screamed as the crowds cheery loudly “Yea!!!!!”
Then a man came out from one of the door, the man has a long neck and he is limping while holding two knives swaying back and forth while his tongue licking one of the knife and laugh creepily…
Ew… That man is so creepy…. He’s so scary…“Dad… What is this about??”
“Ah.. Forgot to explain.. This Coliseum is where Gladiators fight each other to death and the crowds will bet and enjoy the match. It’s one of the best sports ever.” The King said excitedly to his daughter.
What??!!! Fight to death??? It’s not fun at all!! It’s cruel!! Why did dad bring me here?? And… when did he come to like killings when he used to hate it so much… Acchan thought to herself sadly and was about to leave but was stopped when the announcer announced the next fighter.
“Now the opponent of Jack is our super rookie, Takahashi Minami!!!”
“Yea!!!” “Go Jack!! Kill that young man!!!” “Minami don’t lose, we’ve bet on you!!!” crowds cheering.
Acchan was shocked when she heard the name then she hurriedly try to see the face of the young fighter.
Although 10 years have passed Acchan would never forget that face… the face she missed so much…
Is that really Minami?? I finally get to see him again!! But… his eyes are so cold.. so different from the ones I’ve known…Then the fight begun!! Minami was able to fight head to head with Jack and this irritates Jack.
Damn this rookie is good… I’ll let you know why I’m called Jack the Ripper!!Jack then swing both his knives heavily and manages to swing away Minami’s sword from his hand, this gives Jack the opportunity attack Minami. Jack then starts slashing his knives towards Minami but Minami was able to dodge all the attacks.
“Go Jack!!!” “What are you doing rookie!!!”
I’ve got to get my sword back… Minami then dash and dive to get his sword but Jack manage to slash him on his back.
“Arg!” Minami cried out in pain.
Seeing this Acchan screamed out “Minami!!!” while the crowds are saying BOOS!!!
Minami was hurt quite badly and he knows that he got to finish this fast. Then he heard a voice… a voice he seems to know.. a voice of long ago… He then turn toward the source of the voice and he immediately recognize the owner of the voice..
Acchan…As Minami is looking at Acchan Jack then charge towards Minami aiming for his throat.
“Minami, Be Careful!!!” Acchan shouted
Hearing this Minami hurriedly turn back to Jack and manages to dodge the fatal attack.
Minami then becomes serious and starts to counter back… his eyes turned ice cold as he starts to slash Jack’s arms, chests, legs and finally stabs his heart…
“Arg!! No!!!” Jack shouted in pain as he drops on the floor… dead…
The crowd freezes awhile then cheers again for the winner has been decided.
Acchan was shocked to see how Minami can kill someone so easily and coldly like that…
Is that really my Minami??? Acchan didn’t want to admit how much Minami have changes but it’s the truth….
“Yes!! Wow! That was a great match wasn’t it Atsuko??” asked the King excitedly
“…”
“It’s fun right?? I could see how desperate you were cheering that rookie, hahaha” the King laughs
“…”
“Atsuko?”
“Please excuse me…” Acchan then left and tears starts to drop from her eyes as she realizes that the Minami she knows and loves is no longer the same Minami anymore…
Minami… What made you change so much???><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
ClinicAfter the match Minami went to the clinic to have his wounds cleaned.
“This is quite a nasty injury… It would hurt a little.. Here bite on this as I stitch your wound” Kojima Riku, Minami’s best friend and the clinic’s doctor says to Minami.
“K..”
A Few Minutes Later…“There done but be careful not to move too much and don’t let water in it”
“Hai, Hai..” Minami answers lazily
Sigh* “Anyway that’s it… I’ve got to go now since I have an important appointment today, well then c ya”
Minami smirked and says “Have fun with your girlfriend~~”
Riku blushes and replies “Whatever!!”
Now Minami is alone… He then remembers about the match today… remembers about the girl that call out his name.. Acchan…
Minami then walk to the place where he and Acchan first met and stopped when he sees a girl sitting on the bench crying.
He slowly approaches the girl “Miss, are you okay??”
The girl slowly raises her head and sees Minami.
Minami realize it was Acchan and decide to leave but was stopped by a hand…
“Wait!” Acchan cried out.
“You… you’re Minami right??”
“…” Minami just nodded slightly
Acchan can’t hold her feelings anymore as she hugged Minami tightly..
“I missed you so much.. sob* sob*”
Minami was a little bit surprised by then hug Acchan back “Un.. Me too..”
Then the two faces each other and look at the face that they both miss so much and slowly, slowly the distance between them is getting smaller… From 5 cm, to 4, then 3, 2, 1 and…. 0.. Their lips are on each others’… They were kissing slowly but passionately, pouring out all their feelings that they’ve had for the past 10 years…
After they break apart from the kiss they both blushes furiously when they realized what happened a few seconds ago…
