Axcel had docked at Zaigyou Island with the rest of his crew. However, being the hyperactive kid he is, he sprinted ahead of them and can no longer locate them, in fact it is possible they’re looking for him right now. The thought hadn’t crossed Axcel’s mind once. His eyes clearly showed that he was struck with amazement as soon as he arrived in the island. It was the biggest Island he has ever been too, that was for sure. His wandering had unknowingly led him into Sector 3, “Gluttony”. As he walked about his head turned back and forth, looking at every bakery, restaurant, and place to dine in general. “This is…AWESOME!” Axcel punched the air full of excitement, nothing has happened yet and he was already happy. “Now…what should I do first?!” Axcel asked himself, he looked around and finally realized something...everybody here was fat. It didn't phase Axcel though, it only meant the food would be better here. He went into a bar and sat between two rather large men and looked at the bartender. "Yo! Got any strawberry sundaes?" |

As you walked through the sector towards your desired bar, the fat crowds of people pushing past everyone else eyed you as you passed, scoffing and grumbling to themselves under their breaths. Something about you was clearing angering them, or making them sad perhaps. It was hard not to notice it though, especially seeings as the streets where filled with people heading for their midday lunches, a ritual here that could not be ignored by anyone. As you walked into your chosen bar, the aroma of food and sweat mixed unpleasantly in the air, and everyone sitting on their reinforced seats seemed to stare up at you as you walked across the room, turning away again once their mouthful of food they had been chewing on ran out. As you sat down on your own reinforced bar stool, the bartender looked you up and down with clear disgust before listening to your order. He grumbled something under his breath himself before shouting through a window in the back to someone named, "Patsy." Soon a woman as large as everyone else in this town waddled out a door and put one strawberry sundae down in front of you. It was certainly bigger than your standard sundae, in fact, it was probably about 5 times larger. With it came a large spoon, one that looked like it wouldn't fit in the mouth of a normal person. With another scoff of disgust, Patsy left again, and the bartender decided it was time to probe you. "So who are you, Skinny, and what god-awful force pulled you to this forsaken place," he said in a dull voice. |

Axcel had been oblivious to the several looks he was getting, and he probably would never notice unless told so by another. When the large woman brought out the largest strawberry sundae that he has ever seen, Axcel was once again left in amazement. He looked around to make sure that the strawberry sundae was just for him. “This is…” Axcel muttered, his eyes began to water as if he was about to create a waterfall of tears in the middle of the bar. “HEAVEN!” He shouted as he pushed the spoon aside and literally devoured the enormous strawberry sundae. The amount of time it took for him to eat the strawberry sundae was questionable for someone his size, heck it was questionable for some of the large people among him. He licked his lips clean and cocked an eyebrow at the bartender who had asked him a question. “Whose name is Skinny? Not mine I hope! My name is Zenryoku Axcel, and I think the god-awful force that brought me here might have been my stomach and was probably my love for adventure.” Axcel said with excitement ringing in his voice followed by a burst of laughter. “Seconds please!” Axcel said, pushing the empty glass forwards. |

Your laughter and happiness clearly unsettled the patrons of the bar. People around you stared and shook their heads, some whispering, "My God, he really doesn't know..." However, this probably didn't register to you as a second massive strawberry sundae was placed in front of you again by Patsy, this time with a bit of a smile on her face. There was a good reason too. While you may have been skinny when you came in, the first sundae had in fact instantly added pounds to your belly. You know had a large lump of fat in the front of you, making you look overweight. While you might not have been in the leagues of everyone else in the bar, you could no longer be considered "skinny" and this seemed to cheer up some of the people around you. The bartender was more friendly too, but still had misery in his voice. "Yeah well if it's adventure you seek, I'd advise you rush back to your ship and get away from this island as fast as you can, before they find you." The mere mention of "they" seemed to send shivers down the fat spines of everyone around you. Some people nearer the door even stopped eating and left at the mention, seemingly terrified. The bartender shook his head, fearing he had said to much and began to walk away to serve the other customers. |

Axcel turned around in his barstool while he was waiting for his second serving, he rested his elbows on the ledge behind him and looked down. His stomach seemed to have gotten larger, but this was what normally occurred when he ate so many strawberry sundaes at once. In his case, he just ate one giant one in seconds. Once it digests, I’ll be super charged! Axcel thought to himself. Axcel turned around and this time he would take his time in eating the strawberry sundae. He ate it rather slowly as he listened to the bartender speak. The words he spoke made him crave for adventure rather then strawberry sundaes, and he even stopped eating his sundae before he was even halfway through. Truly a rare moment indeed. “Before who gets me?” Axcel asked, it was evident that no simple warnings were going to turn him around, his curiosity has peaked. “I’d really love to get to know these people you speak of.” Axcel said in a sarcastic manner as he laughed again. He eagerly awaited the bartenders response, pushing aside the sundae for now. |

The bartender froze as you asked him who would get you. You could visibly see the sweat on his head. "Yeah," someone sitting at the bar drinking some kind of strong drink said, "before who gets him?" The man who said this seemed to be a rare sight in this town, he wasn't fat. He smirked at the bartender, who in turn looked back at Axcel and smiled very uncharacteristically for himself and said, "Nothing, never mind, just an ol' mans rambling, been working too hard recently." He chuckled too, making the act seem all too fake. But before you could ask anything else, he disappeared away into the back. The Sundae in front of you slowly dribbled down onto the bar, the glasses they where served in weren't made to fit sundae's this big. The skinny man took another swig of drink and walked out of the bar, nodding to a man in the corner who nodded back. The man in the corner raised to his feet, and waddled to the bar, being considerably fatter than the other man had been. He took the seat the man had been sitting on and simply sat there, watching everyone in the bar. People began leaving slowly, it was clear this man made them uncomfortable. Soon, before you even realized only the two of you where left in the bar. As you ate, you looked over to him and he simply nodded, with a large smirk on his face. |

The old man in front of him was sweating like a pig, his attitude and expressions seemed to have completely changed. When the man’s attention drifted away from Axcel to another man, Axcel turned his head as well to take a good look at who else was there. He wasn’t as fat as the others had been, in fact he could probably be considered skinny by their standards. Axcel wondered if he was an outside just as he had been. He turned back to the old bartender, and he looked like he was having a nervous breakdown. Soon after, the bartender muttered a few words and left. “That was…odd…” Axcel mumbled to himself. He leapt to his feet and onto the solid ground of the bar. He left his strawberry sundae behind and decided it was time to take his leave. “I wonder what else there is to do around here!” Axcel said to himself. He looked around the bar, everyone was gone. Feeling awkward, he set out to leave, but then noticed a large man sitting by himself. Axcel wondered what the heck he was doing all by himself, but he paid no attention. He wanted to meet the man who was as skinny as him. |

Just as you took a couple of a couple of footsteps forward, a voice shouted out from the bar behind you, "HEY!" Spinning round, you where met with the sweaty face of the bartender who was staring at you with his still fearful eyes, "This might be a new concept to you but you actually have to pay to eat in this town." The bartender walked out from behind the bar and started collecting the money left on the tables by the others who had made their hasty escape. The man sitting at the bar reached into his large jacket and pulled out a pistol, cocking it as he pointed it towards you. He rose to his feet and started snickering loudly. He took a few steps towards you and said, "I knew it, one look at you and I knew it! You're a thief ain't ya? Here to eat and run, weren't planning on paying where ya! You've broken the rules of Gluttony, and that's the death sentence in this town, stranger." The mans grin revealed his rotten decayed teeth from years of eating junk and without brushing, and his breath nearly made you want to throw up. The bartender looked over to the two of you and started backing up slowly, "Come on now, Barry, I'm sure he was going to pay, let's not jump to conclusions," he said, almost begging for this to go off without violence. The man, supposedly named Barry, looked over at the bartender and growled, "SHUT IT YOU! Those who break the law die, you should know that!" Taking his eyes back to you, the fat man started walking towards you giggling to himself. |

As Axcel began to walk out of the bar he was stopped by the bartender’s voice, and was told that he didn’t pay. Axcel wasn’t used to paying, not because he couldn’t afford it, but because some sort of event always occurred when he went somewhere causing the bartender to flee. This created a rather awkward situation, and the fat yelling man pointing a pistol at him didn’t make things easier. “Eh?” Axcel responded to Berry’s outburst with a confused look on his face. He didn’t really pay attention to a word he said, except for the part where he broke the rules and now he had to pay the death sentence. I could totally kick this guys ass…but I think I’d rather leave… Axcel thought he might be able to leave without stirring up a commotion, but chances are a “commotion” is the inevitable when it comes him. Axcel backed up a bit and he felt a chair besides his leg. He put his hands up as if he were surrendering, and slowly moved his leg underneath the chair and behind the front chair legs. In an instant, he kicked the chair forward and straight towards the pistol to throw his aim off. Before the man could recuperate from Axcel’s sudden attack, he picked up money from a nearby table that the bartender hasn’t gotten to and threw it at the bartender, “Enjoy! Keep the change!” He shouted as he made a dash for the bar exit. So much for leaving without causing a commotion. |

The chair flew up in an instant, and the now startled Barry left off a shot that went straight into the chair blowing a hole in it. The bartender fell back against the wall, having been startled too and didn't even notice the money smacking his large man breasts. It seemed like the plan had went off perfectly, and escape seemed to be right in front of you... had the skinny man not been standing right outside. With a thud, you were sent skidding back into the bar as he smacked you on the face with the butt of his rifle. Although the blow caught you off guard, it hadn't really done much to you. He walked forward into the bar, closing the door behind and chuckling all the while. "I knew the moment I saw you that you'd be trouble," he said as Barry regained his composure and began laughing too, "and now you're really going to pay for what you've done." Barry cocked his pistol and pointed it straight at you again, while the other man dropped his rifle on the ground and cracked his knuckles. He walked towards you jeering down at you with a sinister look on his face. He rose his fist in the air and brought it down to punch you in the face, just as the bartender shook his head and whispered, "I'm sorry..." |

Axcel had a grin on his face as he dashed towards the bar exit, but the grin quickly faded when he ran straight into the butt of the skinny man’s rifle. It sent him back into the bar he had intended on escaping from. So much for that idea. He began rubbing the side of his face while sitting on the floor, not noticing the shadow of the approaching man that covered him until he spoke. “Huh?! What did I do! Oh yeah…I didn’t pay him…” Axcel was still a bit confused here. He looked up, and saw the man ready to punch him in the face. Now he could dodge it and probably rip this guy apart, but that would have to wait. He had some questions of his own. Axcel rolled his head to the side the punch came, so as it made contact his head would move in the same direction. The purpose behind this was too neutralize the damage received while having the opponent thinking they are hitting him. Afterwards he turned his head back to facing the man, staring him straight in the eye. “I broke the rules of Gluttony?” He recalled what the fatter one had said earlier. “Who the hell is Gluttony?!” Axcel questioned with a furious tone in his voice. “I’m not afraid of your death sentence, but if I’m going to get it for some dumb rule like that, then whoever Gluttony is should enforce it himself!” Axcel said, he hadn’t met this Gluttony, heck he might have even misunderstood what they said, but one thing was for sure. He wanted to hit something. |

"WHO IS GLUTTONY!?" The man punching you said, with a laugh in his voice, "You must be really stupid, or you're not from around here, either way I'm going to beat you to death here so what does it matter?" The man said smirking. The bartender was behind the bar again and looked over at you on the ground. He was sweating heavily, and scared beyond anything he had been before, but he knew what he had to do. Reaching under the bar, he pulled out a shotgun he kept for safekeeping his lives and pointed it at the back of the man pointing the pistol at your head. The punching man's eyes widened as he realised what was about to happen. He tried to shout, "LOOK OUT!" but was too slow. The bartender fired straight into the back of the pistol wielding fatty and blew a hole clean through his chest. Blood splatter all over the bar as the fat pistol wielding man collapsed to the floor with the other thin man looking on shocked. The bartender went to grab some more ammo to reload his gun, but the tall man start to run towards him, fury in his eyes. You however, remained on the floor for now, forgotten it seemed by the now angry and charging tall thin man. |

The thin man simply mocked him when Axcel raised a question regarding ‘Gluttony’. If that wasn’t going to work then he would have ask a bit more…forcefully. The thin man who stood above him looked fairly weak…However the pistol that pointed at his head could be a problem. Axcel’s teeth were grinding against each other as he stared at the thin man with a furious look on his face. He thought about getting up and punching the man back, but if he made the slightest mistake he would end up with a bullet drilling through his head. Bang. For a second Axcel thought he was the one that got shot, but the fat man with the pistol dropped to the ground instead. His head turned to a trembling bartender who had just saved his life. The thinner man was sent into a state of rage and began charging towards the man, completely forgetting about Axcel. Someone in Axcel’s shoes would normally take advantage of the situation and flee, but Axcel could not leave without repaying the favor that the bartender had done for him. Standing up, Axcel sprinted towards the man who was charging the bartender. He hopped onto a chair that was in the way and then leapt off the chair, propelling himself towards the thin man. While Axcel soared through air, he attempted to grab the man by the back of his head and slam him against the ground before he could reach the bartender. |

The Thin man was completely oblivious to Axcel in his rage, and didn't notice him tell he felt his hand around the back of his head. Already running forward, it only took the slightest of effort from Axcel to the throw the man straight to the ground. His face collided with the solid wood flooring with a horrible cracking noise that actually made the bartender, who was mid-reloading, flinch. The thin man groaned a low and painful, "OWWWWW" then fell unconscious in the pool of blood spewing from his nose across the floor. The bartender looked at you and smiled a wide smile. "You did it, I knew you could, I knew you where strong from the minute I saw you!" He clapped his hands together and let out a cheerful chuckle. "Please," he said breathing heavily and still sweating, "You have to help us, please, I know you can beat him, I know you can beat Gluttony and free us from this four year nightmare!" |

"Man...that felt great." Axcel said as he pulled his arm away from the bleeding man on the ground. He has been waiting to bring some hurt onto that guy. The bar seemed to look completely different from what it looked like before. In the beginning it was filled with people and food on the tables. Now it was a mess, with two bleeding men on the ground and two others unharmed, while the rest of the bar was empty. When the man began asking him to defeat Gluttony and free them from their four year nightmare, Axcel was struck with a confused look on his face. He wasn't sure what was going on, but it would probably be a good idea to find out. "Four year nightmare? What is...that?" Axcel asked as he sat down on a barstool. He seemed very calm compared to the sweaty bartender in front of him. |
