Chapter 4: The Contract
Ok Maria, I deserve answers.
Uh answers Mr Dogman?
Spike, Spike Dogtooth.
Who?
That's my name! You're still not the smartest tool in the shed are you?"
You have a shed in here?"
Ugh...forget what I said .Well now's a good time to ask.."
You have a shed on a boat? Lemme see!"
I wish! Do you know how expensive that would..Hey! Focus Maria! I have questions and you're gonna answer them."
Like how to put a shed on a boat?"
Would you stop with the shed thing already! Damn! Listen, how come when I was fighting those soap lunatics you were all "damsel in distress" mode but the moment I beat them, you reveal your true colours and turn out to be strong. Like stupid strong."
Well I uh.."
Maria don't even think of lying to me. I can and will smell it."
It..it started just a few days ago..."
I was staying in my little town doing uh normal teen stuff like playing tag and drawing with crayons.."
Sounds like kids stuff."
Lemme finish OK?!"
Alright alright fine."
Then this gang showed up, the Spank gang, led by some dumb dumb called Warden Spanks.
She still says dumb dumb? What a child..but it's oddly cute.
He tried to take over my town so I used my strength, the same strength I used on you, to take him down."
And how did you end up here?
Aw geez! Impatient much? Lemme finish ok?! In a desperate move, a took my father hostage and threaten to kill him if I don't sign a 'contract."
Contract?"
It's like a legal agreement where two people..
I know what a contract is!
So you know that what happens in the contract comes true right?
What do you mean?"
Listen, when I signed the contract it said:
*If you hurt any allies or affiliates of the Spank gang, your father will die.*
So once they let my dad go..I did the sensible thing and attacked them. At least I thought it was sensible, I mean how were they gonna kill my father if he's no longer in their hands?But then my father started getting a heart attack!
What?!"
And when I stopped attacking, his heart attack stopped and he was saved .
So you were under their control.
Sadly yes, they captured me and to make sure I didn't try anything funny, Spanks sold me to his friends at the Bathboy gang and they shipped me off. I couldn't also hurt them because they were his affili..affli..
Affiliates?
Yeah, I said it so good before.. I don't know why I..
Then the whole soap scenario happened and I met you."
Yep and here we are now."
But so what are you gonna do about the Spank gang?"
I'll figure something out I guess."
T..there it is! My hometown!
They had reached their destination, the country of Capo Initiative . However, they were only met with a large beach and an even larger forest.
Uh so you Iive in the trees eh?"
What? No! My hometown is passed those trees. Thanks a lot for getting me here! I hope we meet again." Maria said as she began to leave the boat only for Spike to grab her and lift her off the ground.
Whoa! What are you doing?!"
Oh come on! You really think I'm not gonna see that town of yours? C'mon let's bounce!"
Spike then used his strength to jump off the boat and was on his way to Maria's hometown.
What would they find at their destination?
Find out next time!
THE END FOR NOW
