Journey Through The Multiverse: RPG

"Right then." She said. She then wiggled her ears. "I sense some other active shards this way!" She said, running off in a random direction... Towards the ship.

Tsukasa soon finished punching in the codes.

"What the hell are you doing?" Nicholas asked Tsukasa.

"We will be taking over a ship that I thought was destroyed. However, it's active. Not very functional, but pretty good in travel. Dai-Shocker will rise from the ashes like a phoenix." Tsukasa said. Nicholas was just nodding along.

"Okay, sure. Whatever. Lets grab it!" Nicholas said. Tsukasa smirked as he hit the final button as the gray wall appeared again to whisk them away near the location of the ship.

"Why am I repeating myself?"

He looked again at his military outfit. It didn't look like it belonged to the military of any of Earth's countries. Plus, he could see some badges that gave him the title of Colonel. He sighed.

"A ship. But where on Amestris- I mean, Earth, are we, to be precise?"

Viktor pauses, and considers it a moment, "I don't actually know..."

Seeing the creature move with an incredible speed, the girl took off after it, and immediately noticed one thing; her asthma had cleared up; whilst it had never really been a problem before, just causing a minor wheeze after a few minutes, now, it was gone completely.

"You don't know?! That's extremely re-assuring. It's your ship! We must be on an ocean or something."

George: Excuse me, Michael, could you give me a second? I want to try something. Scholar!

George changed into the outfit of the scholar, and pulled out a book. He flipped through to a certain page, then held his hand out towards Michael.

George: Let's see here... *mumbling* Ah, here we are. Wow, you do have powers! Apparently, you have something called Fire Alchemy! Those powers were borrowed from someone called Roy Mustang from... Full Metal Alchemist? Hm, I've heard about that...

"Well... Maybe... I mean, it's a spaceship. A Ha'tak, to be exact. And, anyway, I only just got here."

Michael looked at both George and Viktor and slowly raised his hands, smiling:

"Oh. I get it. It's a prank. Yeah, spaceships, right- guess what, those are fictional. And so is Fire Alchemy. Fiction! It's all fiction. Not a single drop of truth... Right?"

He looked at them. Worry flashed on his face:

"It's fiction. There's no way I can use alchemy, it doesn't work! I've read about it on the books. And that guy changing costumes is just a really good mirror trick or something. It's not true. Not. True."

He looked at his gloves.

"But... I have knowledge that I could never obtain in Real Life. I have memories from the persoective of a ficticional character... So if this is true, it's possible that you two are behind it. Tell me now, or... Or..."

He then proceeded to look for a way to threaten. After a few seconds, he raised his hand, and was ready to snap his fingers.

"If this is true, then... Tell me ALL you know or I'll explode this ship."

Michael remained expression-less- well, at least he tried. One could see on his face the clear signs of a bluff.

Just then, a near burnt up straw hat fell onto the floor. Its motion would probably cause those in the ship to notice it.

George: Okay. Let's not be hasty here. I'll tell you what I know. On my way home from school, I found a crystal shard. I accidentially stabbed myself, and now I have the powers of someone from Final Fantasy III. I can change jobs, and I know all the skills from those jobs. I ended up on this ship, and that's all I know! Really! Ninja!

George changed clothing into that of a ninja. He then pulled out a shuriken.

George: Also, if you DO try to blow up this ship, this thing will be embedded in your forehead so fast it'll leave you dead before you can blink. Really... I'm serious!

It's quite obvious George isn't ready to kill someone. And then he notices the hat.

George: Wait a minute... What the heck is that?

Viktor looks panicked, "Woah, woah, woah. Don't kill him."

"I doubt the pain of a shuriken will be the same as the one of being burned alive— Is that... A straw hat?"

George: It is, I think... Um... Let me see... Maybe my study ability will work on this...

Viktor looks slightly confused, "...Straw hat? What are yo..." He all of a sudden notices the hat, "Oh, hey! It's a straw hat!"

George turns visibly pale as he reads through the book.

George: This is... This is Luffy's hat. THAT Luffy. The guy from One Piece! But he never abandons this! Why would he... Oh my god Luffy's dead... And his hat was in this ship... This is Luffy's ship! Or, at the very least, one he used. My god... Oh my god oh my god... You guys know what this means?

"How can you be so sure? I mean, you're supposedly using a ficticional ability to read about a ficticional character? What if you're all imagining th—"

His head started to hurt again. The images of the people he supposedly met throughout his life continued to flash on his head. His expression changed to one of complete terror:

"No... This is real. Too real to be fiction. We need to find out who brought us here and who did... that."

He slowly pointed to the straw hat.

"I effectively stole Monkey D Luffy's ship?"

George: Yeah. We need to figure this out. I'll help out any way I can. I can tell my Study ability will come in handy in the future... As well as everything else.

"This is the weirdest damn dream i've ever had, right?" The suddenly new voice was accompanied by the steady tapping of a cane on the ground as a new person emerged from a side corridor, limping visibly and adjusting his glasses as he went.

"I mean, I get up this morning and a crystal falls down from the sky and impales me, next thing I know i'm in the bottom hold of a spaceship, taking endless hours to wander up here only to be greeted by a bunch of weirdos talking about impossible situations and fictional characters and..." The boy stopped his ranting and grinned "what the hell, may as well play along right? I take it you're my new captain, then? he said, pointing lazily at Viktor.

sorry i'm late

Viktor smiles, "Yes, I suppose I am."

"August Lim reporting for duty, sir. If you wouldn't mind, it took forever to get up here from your ship's hold, and I could really use a situation report."

There wasn't time for shock. It was obvious to August that he had either gone insane in some kind of impact induced coma or been thrown into some kind of brave new world. If the former was true, playing out this odd scenario was probably the best way to wake up sane. If the latter was true, it was best to go with it for now and sort himself out later.

"... Situational report? Our situation is that I'm awesome, and nothing appears to be wrong."

George adjusts his glasses.

George: Hello August. I'm George. Please hold still for a moment.

George will be going through the motions of Study for a little bit.

August laughed. He liked this new captain guy already, even if he might be a figment of his insane, unconsious dreams.

"I was actually referring to how a bunch of teenagers like us wound up on a massive warship and possessed of the powers and..." he shook his head like he was clearing out cobwebs " apparently memories...of fictional characters. Unless of course everyone fell unconscious after being impaled in the head by spikes falling from the sky, like yours truly."

This soldier-like manner of handling things felt familiar to him, although with his age and condition he was pretty sure he had never served any large amount of time in the military. Then again, he had flashed through a lot of memories he didn't remember having before on his way up from the cargo hold. Not to mention this weird, niggling presence in the back of his head...like something was there that wasn't before...something that stretched out into his cane, the metal walls of the ship...everything. It was odd, like he had been blind before and was seeing things for the first time.

George soon finishes studying August.

George: Alright August, you seem to have powers of Metalcrafting gained from... Well, I can't read the first name, but their last name is Valerian.
