Chapter 737: A Nice Family
Since there was too much bloodshed, Cross, Sarah, Jesse, Orion, Akashiri, and Lucia could no longer stay. They had to find somewhere else to stay. While they were walking a hover van pulled up by them. The door opened and out came an old woman, a young woman, and two little girls. Are you folks hitchhikers?" asked the old woman. " Yes," answered Sarah. " "Will you give us a ride?" "Sure!" "Hope in!" The old woman and her family seemed cheerful. When we get to my husband's house, we will eat a fantastic soup with some fantastic bread. " What's your name?" asked Jesse.
"My name's Carole." "This my lovely daughter Nicole!" Nicole smiled and said: "Hi." "These are my two lovely grandchildren, Amy and Gianna!" "Hi!" said the 2 little girls. Amy was 6 while Gianna was 8. On the ride to Carole"s house, everyone introduced themselves. Carole pulled up to a cabin. In front of the cabin was an old man who was sweeping in front of the porch. As everyone stepped out, the old man stopped sweeping. " Carole you didn't tell me you were bringing guests." These sweet honey have nowhere to go!" "So I offered them to stay here for a couple of days until they are ready to get back on their feet and find a place of their own." I am Neil." "Please to meet all of you."
"Come on in." "You young men and women must be hungry." "I will cook up some of my famous chicken soup." Neil opened the door. He had a little smile on his face. Everyone walked in. Excuse me while I slaughter the chicken. "Until then make yourselves at home." Neil closed the door. He began laughing. He pulled a phone out of his pocket and dialled a secret number. His phone began vibrating. A black straw hat was seen. " What the fuck do you want Neil?" asked the straw hat on the other line. " I have some interesting news." Inside Carole was offering everyone butter pecan cookies with milk. Neil kicked open the door with a skinned chicken missing a head. Blood was dripping everywhere. "Cooking this stew should only take a half-hour." "Won't be long." "Carole, could you help me with the stew?" "Sure." Neil closed the kitchen door behind him, tossing the chicken on the counter.
Carole had vegetables on a cutting board. "Carole, I have to tell you something." "What is it?" "You see those hitchhikers out there?" " Yes is there something wrong?" " Those are the ones the straw hat swordsmen are looking for!" "Oh, no Neil." You didn't." " "How could you?!" Those people may be intruders but they are very nice!" "They were intruders they would have robbed us by now!" yelled Carole. " But you don't understand!" "The straw hats said they give me 100,000 pieces of gold!" Do you know what this means?!" "With that money, we can get out of this dump and move in a bigger, better house!" "We can even take a vacation!"
"I don't give a shit about the money!" yelled Carole. Cross rushed into the kitchen and said: "Is everything alright?" "Yes, I just stubbed my old wrinkled toe!" said Neil. Neil opened the microwave and pulled out the next batch of butter pecan cookies. He handed them to Cross who closed the kitchen door behind him. After 30 minutes passed, Neil came out with a huge tray with hot chicken soup, and 4 loaves of garlic bread. Carole and Nicole set the table, while Amy and Gianna washed their hands. As Sarah tasted the soup, Nicole asked her how it tasted. Sarah smiled and said: " It's magnificent!" Lucia also said it tasted great. While everyone was having a nice lunch, a loud knock was heard on the door.
Neil stood from his chair, wiping the splashes of chicken soup from his beard with a white interior designed napkin. He looked through the keyhole and saw three normal straw hats and the infamous straw hat named Ryu, A.K.A, The Dark Angel. Neil opened the door and closed it behind him. " Where are they?" asked Ryu. "Inside having soup." Where's my reward?" Ryu signalled one of the lower straw hats who heaved a big bag of gold on the ground, causing the bag to be torn open, exposing the gold coins. "That's only 50,000." Where's the other half." In the underworld where you belong." "You have smuggled me out of my money for the last time Neil." Neil knew what was about to happen.
Neil turned around beginning to head for the cabin. Ryu signalled one of the straw hats who ran towards Neil, chopping his head off. Blood splattered everywhere. The straw hat swordsmen kicked the door off the hinges, holding Neil"s head, tossing it at Carole, laughing like a maniac. Carole began screaming. Cross stood on his feet firing a metallic spike into the strawhat's chest. He died instantly. "Take the children and go!" yelled Lucia to Nicole who responded quickly. Ryu examined the metallic spike ripping out of his colleague"s chest. He looked at it and crushed it in his hand. Ryu smiled and snapped his fingers. At least 20 straw hat swordmen surrounded the house.
