Only a Smile? Young Shanks x Young Reader

29- A Green Blob of Moss? *Gasp* A Marimo!!

Screamadoodledoo!!-

That's the sound of the entrance of the tunnel crying because Shanks, ever so rudely, faceplanted into her- and hard... An outline, a big one at that, of Shanks was roughly carved into the entrance wall which was closed.

Shanks stepped a few feet back, scrunching his face slightly and held his nose, with tears threatening to spill from the corners of his eyes, he held Y/n up with one hand, leaning her against the wall. 'oow owoowowowo ow ow wo ow ow wo ow ow ow OW OW OW OW OW IT'S BUZZING- MY NOSE IS BUZZING!!-' He whimpered as he felt as if becoming a handsomer Voldemort was a better idea than suffering through the pain.

A/n: I would be really shocked if u dunno who Voldemort is- but I was reading a fanfic and someone said they rlly hate it wen authors talk about other characters in a fanfic, and I want to make this fun for ya'll, but I also love doing slight crossovers, so imma just tell u that Voldemort is from Harry Potter, he's the one without a nose and is very fuggly- unlike his younger self which is top tier and which many (thirsty) people simp for- you're welcome for that amazing description.

After collecting himself, Shanks picked Y/n up again and tried to open the entrance... that's when he realised, there was no button on the inside.

And so, Shanks and Y/n were trapped inside forever, they died of starvation and dehydration, and their dead bodies were eaten by giant spiders... JK...

Shanks panted heavily and stared at the covered entrance with a frown on his face, "How do I get through now?..." He muttered under his breath.

"Watchu doing, kid?"

"AHHHHHH, WHAT THE F***?!?!?" Shanks turned around quickly, and was facing... a giant blob of moss??... "What?..." He reached out a hand to touch the moss, but his hand was caught by another hand. 'HAH?! MOSS HAVE HANDS?!?!' He thought in a panic.

"Were you trying to touch my hair?" The moss said.

"Huh? Moss can speak??" He said in confusion.

"What? I'm not moss? Are you alright in the head?" Mr Moss Man asked.

Shanks looked down to where the voice was coming from, 'Oh, it's a human, not moss...'. He stared blankly at the face staring at him before his eyes widened.

"IT'S A HUMAN?!" Shanks let out all of a sudden, finally processing his thoughts.

"Hah.. Did you actually think I was moss?"

"Well.. you- or your hair, certainly looks like it... wait, aren't you from back there in the light?-" Shanks realised, starting to back away slightly. "A-ah! Look over there! It's a-... a big mushroom! It's running towards us! It's going to eat us!" He screamed all of a sudden, looking behind the marimo, trying to create a distraction to run away.

"Huh? Are you stupid? I'm not going to fall for that." Marimo said, although, he still took a quick peek behind himself, just to check, and Shanks tried running off again, only to be stopped by the marimo grabbing the back of his collar. "Why do you keep running away, it's not like I'm going to eat you," He sighed.

"Yeah, but you're gonna rat me out..." Shanks muttered under his breath, unfortunately for him, the tunnel cave was very windy that day, thanks to all the running and dust, so he was heard by the marimo.

"Rat you out?"

"Yeah, it's your job to guard this place right?"

"What?"

"What?"  Shanks asked back, slightly confused.

"What?"

"Wait, What?... I don't understand?..."

"I don't work here? Wait, we're not allowed to be here?"

"NO?? This is the king's secret office, right?"

"Huh? It is?"

"If you don't work here, then what are you doing here??"

"............. What are you doing here?" The marimo asked, looking away.

"I asked first!"

"Well, I asked second,"

"That doesn't matter, I asked first! Plus, I'm not allowed to tell others that I'm on a missio-..." Shanks clamped his mouth shut as soon as he realised and tried to make an excuse. "T-that I'm on a m-macaroni and cheese banana party?...."

"What?... So, you're on a mission, I can ignore that-... but did you just say macaroni and cheese banana party? That is a crime, macaroni and cheese mixed with banana is a crime..."

"No, no I didn't say that-... I-I meant broccoli sandwich- wait no, that's also pretty bad-" Shanks kept fuddling up his words, trying to make a logical excuse. 'Damn it, Y/n! You're craziness infected me!' 

"Wait, I have no need to explain myself to you! I'm leaving!" Shanks ended, picking Y/n up again and turning to the still-blocked entrance, and sighed, forgetting it was still closed.

"How are you supposed to leave if there's no way to leave, idiot?"

"Sh-shut up! I'm thinking about it!"

"This is so boring, I'll just follow you around then, come on, let's go,"

"We can't, the entrance is- wa-wa-wa.... h-how did you?-"

The marimo cut down the rocks with a flick of the wrist, sheathing his katana again. "Let's go." He walked over the debris and into the office, "You coming or what?"

Shanks just stood where he was, his jaw hit the ground and he stared at the crying rubble of what used to be the entrance.

The poor entrance 😭
