Pranks. Pranks Everywhere

Chapter One: Spider

Summary for all one-shots: The title is basically self-explanatory. Life on The Moby Dick is more exciting with pranks being pulled everywhere. Hence the title. No pairings, just brotherly love. Most of these will be Marco and Thatch because I've been obsessed with the two. Mostly Thatch X3 But there will be other characters eventually :D

Summary for this chapter: A spider finds it's way into Thatch's room and he seeks Marco's help for getting rid of it.

STORY CONCEPT IS MINE!

Thatch entered his room heading for his bed for a much needed good nights sleep. He uncovered his bed and saw…

Thatch blinked and squinted to get a better look. "What the…"

The insect then moved and Thatch screamed literally hydroplaning out of his room running away from it as far as possible.

Marco was about to enter his own room when Thatch appeared in front of him screaming like crazy. The only words he could make out were 'spider' and 'kill it. Before Marco could protest, Thatch grabbed him by his wrist and practically dragged him to his room still talking about the spider. Thatch opened his door and just pushed Marco inside while he hid behind the doorframe peeking in.

"Oi, what the…"

"Kill it!" Thatch told him.

"Kill what?" Marco questioned slightly annoyed.

"The spider on my bed!"

"Why is there…"

"I don't know!"

"How did…"

"Just get rid of it!" Thatch demanded. Marco groaned in annoyance. "You can burn the bed for all I care!"

"Then where will you sleep?"

A slight pause.

"You can burn the spider for all I care!"

"But I'll still burn the…"

"Just get rid of it!" Thatch demanded again.

"Alright, calm down! Pansy." Marco muttered.

"I heard that!"

Marco ignored him and looked at Thatch's bed not really concerned about the situation.

"I don't see anything."

"Liar." Thatch said still peeking in from behind the door. "… Can I sleep in your room?"

"What? No! Besides the spider is gone. If there was one anyway."

"I'm telling you it was there."

"Well, now it's not. If you don't believe me then come see for yourself."

"No, I'm not going near- No! Marco, I'm serious! NO!"

"Get your Pompadour ass over here!" Marco said manhandling Thatch inside the room and literally carried him over to the bed. "Open your eyes, it's gone!"

Thatch did as he was told and when he didn't see the spider anywhere he sighed in relief.

"Can I still sleep…"

"No." Marco just dropped Thatch on the floor who yelped.

"Come on! What if it comes back?"

"You have two swords, slice it."

"Ew, no! I wouldn't touch that thing if I had a thousand foot pole! And what if I do and it regenerates and comes back for a vengeance?"

"… Thousand foot pole? And spiders can't regenerate."

"You don't know that. Please?"

"No."

"Please?!"

"No."

"If it comes back, I'm going straight to your room!"

Marco sighed. All he wanted to do was get a good nights sleep. "Fine. But you're sleeping on the floor." Thatch pouted at that. "Either that or you sleep outside where there can be more spi…"

"Floor it is."

(*o*) (*0*) (*O*) (*o*) (*0*) (*O*)

Thatch talked about random nonsense until he finally tired himself out and fell asleep. Just in time to. Marco was getting ready to throw him outside.

(*O*) (*0*) (*o*) (*O*) (*0*) (*o*)

He was in a deep sleep. Nice and warm in the blanket even though it didn't matter if he had it or not. Then he felt something. Like if…

Marco quickly sat up from his sleep and looked around the room and then looked at Thatch who was asleep. He then felt something crawling on him and he removed the blanket and soon saw a spider on his leg. More specifically it was a damn tarantula.

Two options: Scream like Thatch and wake up said person or simply hit the spider away.

Unfortunately, Marco screamed before he could think and hit the spider away from him with his other leg but it continued crawling towards him and Marco moved away from it, falling off the bed causing Thatch to wake up. Before Thatch could say anything, Marco covered his mouth.

"Somehow the spider made it's way into my room." Marco said earning a squeak of fear from his friend. "We have to get rid of it."

Thatch removed his friend's hand. "How?"

"There's only one solution."

Thatch pictured The Moby Dick being burned down due to a spider and everyone sobbing about it on some random island.

Marco sweat dropped somehow seeing the image inside his crazy friends head. "What the fuck? Are you out of your mind?!" He then hit Thatch on the head.

"Ow! What do you think we should do then?"

Marco looked at the spider that was just lounging on his bed like if he owned it. That fucker, Marco thought. Then he came to a conclusion.

"I know what to do." He said lighting up his hand.

XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD

Marco threw the ashes in the ocean (after he teased Thatch with it) and the poor spider was never seen or heard from again.

"Poor Spidey." Thatch said feeling somewhat sorry for it. "It never stood a chance."

"… Spidey?"

"Yes, Spidey."

Silence. Nothing but the soft waves were heard.

"So~, what now?" Thatch asked.

X3 X3 X3 X3 X3 X3 X3 X3

*Knock knock*

"Come in." Whitebeard answered expecting it to be the night watcher.

"Oyaji?" Marco said entering the room with Thatch following behind.

"What is it, my sons?"

Said pirates looked at each other gesturing for one of them to answer. Thatch then pushed Marco forward earning a glare from said person. Marco then turned to his father figure.

"We were… Wondering if… Is it alright if we sleep in here? Just for tonight?" He asked hesitantly while looking at the floor.

Whitebeard raised an eye brow in question but didn't ask why. He then looked at Thatch who was falling asleep.

"Of course." He didn't miss the sigh of relief his sons gave off and Thatch just dropped to the floor wanting to sleep. "I wouldn't sleep on the floor, though." Thatch groaned in annoyance obviously not wanting to be bothered. "I saw a spider in here earlier."

Thatch's eyes snapped open as he quickly sat up and Marco just stared at Oyaji with a blank look. It couldn't be the same spider right? Marco literally burned the thing to death so…

The two commanders didn't sleep for the rest of the night and a few days after. It finally went noticed when Thatch accidentally set the stove on fire five times and kept burning the food (which rarely happened) and when Marco kept missing a lot of paperwork and even accidentally burned some pages and the nurses literally had to tie them down to the beds in order for them to sleep.

Special thanks to Ezaria and StarPurpleandBlue for encouraging me to continue with my stories! :D If it wasn't for them cheering me up, well… This possibly wouldn't be up right now and I probably would've destroyed the world or something, lol.

Ace: "Now go check out there stories!"

Me: "Right, what he said!" :D

"Hey, Thatch, can you hold this for me?"

Thatch: "Sure, what is it?"

Ace handed the item to Thatch who took it hesitantly.

Thatch then opened his hand to find a real spider on it and he screamed throwing it away from him.

"Marco~~~!" Thatch literally cried as he ran to him and hid behind him. "The spider is back! Get rid of it!"

Marco glared daggers at Ace who looked away whistling.

Me: "Well, while I enjoy a cute sobbing Thatch and comfort him, Marco chasing Ace around the ship and a spider that's just… Literally hanging around…

Review, please!" XD
