Phenomenon Serendipity 3--Chapter 5

Got another chapter of Phenomenon Serendipity 3, take a look at what happens next. Please enjoy, thank you very much! --KatDon 

The Abominations knew well how to cool like anybody else could: They hunt down the prey and slaughtered. The Abominations eat their game alive, tearing out from throats, some like it raw and squirming yet screaming! With their prey un-alive; the Abominations cook what they like. They skinned it, hang it on meat hooks, seasoned their quarry with herbs & spices, or they add vegetables. The Abominations smoked, fried, steamed and barbecued their prey on spits, over an open fire or roasted on toast. They peeled the skin off faces, gnawing the fleshy meat off bones; squeeze the bloody jelly from the eyes, grate and grind. Tear skin so brutal with their teeth when it comes to infected, diseased skin—especially gangrene. Those Abominations don’t give a damn, they’re not picky! And if the skin is covered in pus and maggots? The more the merrier! The Abominations also know their inner most desires such as plunder. They beat their victims, they go down and forces their desires to penetrate within, the Abominations go between legs, buck ‘em from behind and forces their penetration onto them. Slurping anything they could reach, groping and sickly acts that are horrifying. They experiment on children, adults, animals and anything else; it doesn’t matter of weight, height or age—it’s the pleasure of venereal copulatory impulses. But plunder and cannibalism isn’t the only thing, they flayed skin and torture them. Abomination children can be malicious and cruel as the Abomination adults: They torture animals to death, proudly display it to horrify others, behead innocent people, eat babies alive and hang decaying corpses all around the playground. They also create a grotesque play area called Sweet Brimstone: Taffy flesh, blood and bone candy canes, sugar and spice drops from veins & arteries, gummy joints, bubble gum from actual gums, jawbreakers made out of tonsils, teeth covered in butterscotch and guts smothered in melted peanut butter cups. It is truly disgusting and would put people off for life. Once innocent people are now screwed up beyond repair as they are perverse on violence as well as crimes; the Abominations think this is the entire norm. And Juno is out to stop them; it won’t be for long when she and the Sisterhood are around! When she was little; Juno once hid from Iris who pretends to wonder where Juno was. “Oh Juno, where is my Juno? I’m gonna find you.” Iris called out, Juno would pop out and smiled at her while Iris hugged her. “There is Junie!” Iris said. “Iris!” Juno squealed. Iris was the most important person in Abominations’s life. She was the sweetest girl anyone has ever met. Iris was everyone’s friend, every guy’s dream girl and a kind soul—not a mean bone in her body! Iris has chestnut brown locks, eyes that were the color of sapphire and freckles lightly on her face. Her skin was fair yet tanned, her teeth were shiny white and she was perfect. While Iris babysits Juno; she used to give her candy and put a finger to her lips as she said, “Shh, this is out secret.” Juno remembered Iris’s sweet singing voice like a lullaby and that tea tree shampoo, even spring flower body spray! Juno walk alone down to the shops and looked at the clothes in the windows, she stops to peer in one of the shops. A young lady in a pure white gown while an old woman employee smiles while pinning the dress. The girl must be having her gown fitted for a special occasion. Juno then turned and walked away, she strolled over as she saw a wedding reception takes place! The newlyweds are each wearing formal clothes and a wedding gown, they look sweet as ever. Children tussled despite the celebratory mood; other guests are more interested in the buffet than the bride. The bride looks radiant, girls stared at her in happiness and everyone cheers for the happy couple. The bride tosses the bouquet, the girls jump up to catch it. Juno doesn’t see who catches it; she focused on the bride who seems to resemble Iris. Juno’s bottom lip wobbled a bit and sashayed away! Young Juno, Iris and their families took a vacation in Titanium Capital as a family get-together. Iris brought her friends to the trip—Faith, Valora and Sophie. They were good friends and very nice to Juno, the girls had fun with each other. They went shopping, enjoying the sights and getting some lunch. One day, it was a day like no other day when Juno, Iris and her friends came across something called Pitfall. Juno’s cousin and her friends were uneasy however Little Juno was curiously excited as she pleaded just to explore inside so that’s what they did! But it was an ambush, the door shut and locked as the massacre begun! Pitfall is the place where Amelia and her friends were massacred, the sole survivor was Juno. She was found in a pool of blood by police, the shell shock Juno was reunited with her mother and relatives, who received news on what happened and grief struck them. On Easter Sunday; Juno had a meltdown where she activated her Fury powers, her mother took her to the emergency room and a doctor prescribe Juno with medication to keep her emotions intact….But not her powers. She made a vow saying, “I, Juno Storm, being of sound, mind and body will eradicate the Abominations! I will have my revenge, if I get blood on my hands—SO BE IT!!” How the other girls became Furies, banshees and harpies is a long story: Pele discovers her Fury powers while fondling her thighs and dig in her skin where she pulls out her vein. Didi was about to be penetrated by Abominations as she let out a terrifying Banshee cry! Kiyohime found a bug nested in her pigment and gouged it out as well as the eggs but accidentally took her artery out. Medea was being harassed by Abominations, she begged them to leave her be but they wouldn’t so she snapped and let out her Harpy form. Uma was in the shower when she felt heat coming from her body. Kali, Circe, Persephone & Artemis, Ishtar and Gilitine went out to ice cream but were being harassed by prissy girls when Kali and her friends transformed into Furies, banshees and harpies—scaring the prissy girls away! Earlier before the alliance; Juno is sitting there as she listens to Chloe, Zoro and Sanji bickering before she turns to them sharply. “What are you doing, you idiots?!” Juno demanded. Everyone looked shocked, Juno turns away and grits her teeth while speaking to Sorey, “Put it on my head. Don’t make me look stupid!” She said. Sorey gently places it, but he wanted to make her happy by placing it flawlessly. “Will you hurry it up already?” cried Zoro. Sorey was startled and drop the headdress, which it shattered and broke. Juno was gasping in shock, Sanji glared at Zoro. “Now look what you did!” Sanji exclaimed. Zoro looked stunned, “Um…whoops.” He said. “Whoops? That’s all you can say?” demanded Sanji. Zoro got angry, “I JUST WANNA HIM TO CUT TO THE CHASE ALL READY!!!” He stipulated. “IT’S CALLED PATIENCE IDIOT, LEARN FROM IT!!!” argued Sanji. Juno lost her temper and shouted as she jumped up, “SHUT UP!!! The next person that argues will never argue again!” Her screaming caused everyone to get a fright. Juno grabbed her hair while screaming again, “I HAD IT!!! HOW CAN YOU NOT GET ALONG FOR 2 MINUTES OR 5 PERHAPS?! NO IT HAS TO BE THIS WAY!!! I WANNA THROTTLE YOU DIPSHITS! CUT YOUR HEART OUT WITH A SCAPEL! LOBOTIMIZE YOUR BRAINS WITH A RAZOR BLADE! PRESS LEECHES ONTO YOUR SKIN SO HARD YOU’LL HAVE HEMOHORRAGES!!! SHOCK SOME THERAPY INTO YOU!!! STOP THE MADNESS, ENOUGH OF THIS ANARCHY!!!” Just then, she felt someone pressed on her shoulders. And a voice said firmly, “Juno Storm, enough!” Juno turned around and saw it was Lelouch, “It’s you!” She gasped. Juno blushed and looked away, calming down. Then; Pele turned to Briar and said softly, “Why can’t you have them all in control?” Briar didn’t know what to say but Pele said coldly, “I didn’t think so, you’re not fit to be a leader….YOU’RE ALL GONNA DIE!!! YOU WON’T SURVIVE LONG!!!” She screamed while running away and crying. Kiyohime glared at Briar and scolds at her, “If you want to be a leader; you must be sane, disciplined and being solemn. Everything you now are not!” Briar was hurt, she turned and walked away while everyone called out her name. Aslaug went to calm her fears and cheer her up. Juno was upset at Pele and Kiyohime for being disrespectful as she forces them to apologize, so they did reluctantly. However, they couldn’t disrespect their leader so they did what she told them. In the present, they are contacted where Rosemary is infiltrated of Abominations trying to terrorize innocent people but Andrea was going to take them all down! Meanwhile; Rosemary could see Abominations were about to make their move. “Ha-ha, Imma gonna trash these suckers in one minute!” Rosemary sneered. Just then; Rosemary’s mouth drop, her eyes bulged and her heart raced! She’s spellbound by a vision of a pretty boy in the crowd. “Oh my god, who’s that?” Rosemary asked. “Who?” Her Corruption asked. “Paley-fair, youthful face, soft skin, red kissable lips!” Rosemary shrieked. The Corruption looked and his face light up, “Ah! That’s Ganymede Henshaw. He sure hasn’t aged—No stubble on him!” He asserted. Rosemary was stunned, “Henshaw? Could it be--? No, impossible! The kind stranger that saved mother?” She whispered. So she uses her Corruptions to take on the Abominations and made her way towards Ganymede. “Ganymede Henshaw, my how you’ve grown.” Rosemary murmured, she leaned in and kissed him on the lips. Chloe and the gang stared in shock. “The hell?” Chloe gasped. Just then, a girl with a taser attacked Rosemary, “What the bloody hell are you doing to my brother?!” She screamed. Luckily, Rosemary dodged it while smiling. “Oh my, I must’ve struck a nerve.” She remarked. The girl try to knife Rosemary but Ganymede calls out: “Sis, stop!” His sister glared at him, “STAY OUT OF THIS!!! NOBODY LAYS THEIR GLOSSY MAW ON MY BROTHER’S MOUTH AND GETS AWAY WITH IT!!!” However; Chloe, Zoro, Sanji and Ban stopped her. The sister’s name is Jessica, she managed to calm down and things worked out OK however Rosemary escaped. Later on; Ganymede arrived home where Jessica didn’t say anything to their mother, Commissioner Portia Henshaw, as everything was normal. Just then; Portia said, “Ganymede? That nasty bruise on your lip, how is it healed?” Ganymede stared at his mother in confusion, “What do you mean?” He asked. He went to the bathroom and checked in the mirror, sure enough his wound on his lip from busting it and was shocked. That night; Ganymede was sleeping when he felt a soft thump on his bed, he stirred and his eyes fluttered open—He saw Rosemary peering over him, “Hi there beautiful.” She purred. Ganymede let out a sharp gasp but Rosemary clamped his mouth shut, “Shhh, you don’t want mummy and sissy to wake up, do you?” Rosemary said softly. She removed her hand from his mouth, Ganymede stares at her in bewilderment. “What are you doing in my room?” He asked. “What? I can’t come and see you pretty boy?” Rosemary remarked. She traced his lips with her index finger, “I see the bruise healed nicely. Guess kisses are magic.” Rosemary murmured. Rosemary’s lips nearly touched Ganymede’s mouth but she pulled away and disappeared. Ganymede’s bedroom door opened and Ganymede saw his mother standing there. “Ganymede, are you OK?” His mother asked. “Yes Mum, I just had a nightmare.” Ganymede said brightly. His mother was skeptical but nodded, “All right, did I hear you talking to yourself?” She inquired. “Ah, yes. Was I being too late?” lied Ganymede. “Not really, try to go back to sleep OK love? You’re gonna need it.” His mother assured. “Sure Mum, g’night.” Ganymede replied. Once his mother was gone; Ganymede sighed and looked up, “You can come down now.” He said. Andrea swooped down from the ceiling and lied next to him. “What? No introduction for me?” She asked with a pouted face. “Not tonight, Mum’s a night worker.” Ganymede replied. “Rawr….” Rosemary teased. Ganymede gave her a look but Rosemary laughed, “I’m kidding, she’s just a commissioner.” She reassured her. “Can I ask a favor?” Ganymede asked. Rosemary smiled, “What’s the favor?” She queried. “Can you stay with me for tonight and be with me tomorrow morning? Just to protect me please?” Ganymede asked. “Of course. I ain’t leaving you ever. If I lose you, I will find you.” Rosemary teased a little. Ganymede chuckled, “That’s spooky.” He remarked. Rosemary looked at him, “I’m serious!!!” She exclaimed almost. “Shh, OK, OK.” hushed Ganymede. Rosemary smiled and snuggled next to him, which made Ganymede’s heart beating fast. In the meantime; Shinoa, Yuu, Yoichi, Mitsuba and Kimizuki are shocked to see a picture of Andrea lip locking with a strange boy. “WHAT?! Whoa, whoa, wait a minute! No way!” Yuu exclaimed. “Rosemary’s got a playmate? Another boy toy?!” Kimizuki cried. “I—I—I thought she’d learn her lesson by now!” Yoichi said timidly. “Guys, guys, calm down! We don’t know that! Let’s not jump into conclusions!” asserted Mitsuba. “Oh poo, he looks cute!” Shinoa teased, “He’s so adorable! Ah, trade places with one of these boys pretty wench!” Yuu gave Shinoa a look, “Really Shinoa?” He snapped. “I’m just teasing.” Shinoa said with a laugh but stopped when she saw everyone’s expressions that looked troubling. “That wasn’t funny.” Mitsuba pointed out. Shinoa realized her mistake, “Sorry.” She apologized. For the time being; Justine and Rayna had dinner while having a good time. After dinner, Justine talked with Rayna a little before wishing her goodbye and Rayna left. When she got in; Carla sat in her dark office and drank her liquor, but enjoyed the silence. Justine sat in her office for the last few minutes when the lights flicked on; Justine turned and gasped—Chloe, Zoro, Sanji and Ban in her office. “Jeez, you scared me Birchhart!” Justine exclaimed. “Oh, I scared you? Me? Spineless Chloe Birchhart scared the crap out of her! Well, you alcoholic, foul mouthed, tough as nails, bitter bitch! I finally grew a backbone, I’m an angel that caught her wings, broke out of her cocoon! Whatcha gonna do about it now?!” Chloe shouted. Ban held her back, “Hey, take it easy! I think you had enough!” He said. “Should I kick you in the shin like I did towards Zoro? I’ll do it much harder you milk sop!” Chloe screamed. “This isn’t a good time to do this!” Zoro claimed. “Let me go, NOW!!!” Chloe yelled. “Calm down, crazy!” Justine assured her. “GO TO HELL!!!” Chloe exclaimed. Just then; Chloe fell on her knees as she felt a twinge of pain from her wound and begin to pant for breath! Sanji put her arms around her, “Easy, easy, I got you.” He said. “What’s wrong, is she OK?” Justine asked with concern in her voice. “Why do you care? P—pl—please, take me home.” Chloe muttered. In the meantime; Chloe breathed slowly, calm and collected. “Don’t get too overly excited or the wound will worsen, OK?” Armin said. Chloe nodded, “OK.” She replied. Later; Chloe went into the empty church and sat in the confession booth, she brought her knees up and hugged them to her chest. She was in that position before beseeching, “I hope you can hear me, I don’t get some people. Those who are religious and yet they’re holier than thou, they think their religion is better than others. And all those fanatics, how do you put up with them doing things like that? All those terrible things, those disgusting and defiling acts, do you forgive them? Would you allow them into your kingdom? Just in your name? And what about the judgmental types? Would you allow them into Heaven for those acts they caused? What would you do? It’s amazing how much tolerance you have to these kinds of people, I can’t speak for you, but what do you to these people? These sick, self righteous evil people? Tell me what do you do?” Just then; Chloe buried her head in her arms and rocked a little. It was quiet until she heard a voice: “If they ask, God provides answer.” Chloe gasped, head raised up and put her feet to the ground and her hands in her lap. Then, Chloe and Faust talked for a little bit when Gretel came in to tell them with news that the Abominations had intrude the church so Chloe and her gang confronted them but were almost overpowering when Sister Gretel managed to murder all the Abominations with anger, butchering those that got in her way! Chloe and the gang were shocked, Faust calms Gretel down and she begins to cry. Chloe felt bad for her. 

Later; Chloe has a meeting and explains the plan to save Lavina however Jet, Droy and Gajeel were stupid enough to question her plan and want to get to paid for this however Zoro, Sanji and Ban hits them hard while reproaching at them that they are going to do this mission whether they get paid or not. Chloe was shocked but impressed, she went up to them and put her arms around the three while saying: “Boys! You rock!” Zoro and Ban smirked, Sanji had hearts in his eyes. Moments after, Chloe and the others prepared themselves. “Ok, let’s do this!” Chloe announced. Zoro smirked, “Screw you dimwits!” He said as he ran. Chloe was shocked, “Wait! Zoro, where you going?” She asked panicked. Chloe and the others ran after Zoro, who nearly tripped and stubbed his foot. “Yowch!” He cried. “You screwed up!” Chloe teased. “You done goof!” Sanji laughed. “There’s an Abomination, there’s an Abomination!” Zoro exclaimed. Chloe panted, “Shit, shit!” She fired her gun at the Hellion and reached for the bullets but dropped them however she got them in time before they got lost. “I got it, run! Run! Run!” Chloe exclaimed. They ran off however one of the weapons Sanji was using wasn’t useful and he was upset about this. Chloe smiled nervously, “Sorry man.” She said. “I’ll give a refund tomorrow!” Sanji grumbled. “Oh quit complaining…” Jane snapped. “Abomination, that’s an Abomination! I’m not gonna look at it, please don’t touch me!” Chloe whimpered. “Maybe it likes you!” Zoro called. “I don’t know where I’m going.” Chloe cried. She found supplies in two different colors as Chloe and Sanji looked at them. Trying to decide which one to take. “You know what? I’ll take the red—You take the blue ‘cause screw you!” Chloe said. Sanji sighed, “Fine.” He said. “Now we can survive!” cheered Chloe. Zoro chuckled, Sanji give him a look. Then, Chloe and the gang were hiding out, Chloe try to find a place to hide when Sanji beckons her to the bedroom. “Come to bed, Clo.” Sanji teased. “If you insisted.” Purred Chloe. Sanji laughs, “Close the door why don’t ya?” He teased. “Noooo!” Chloe taunted. “Don’t want people watching, geez!” Sanji panted. “I love it when they watch!” Chloe said in a mockery of a sultry voice. “You know what will happen?” Sanji teased. “No I don’t want this to happen!” Chloe laughed. Just then, there was a scream as a young fellow is caught by an Abomination. The man screamed as the Abomination rammed his fingers into the poor pedestrian’s eyes and bite into his head, spat out a huge chunk of hair and skin before chowing down his brains. Chloe and his squad are grossed out. “Aw gnarly!” Chloe groaned. More Abominations were attacking but Gareki slashed an Abomination’s head cleaned off, “Talk about an adrenaline rush to the head!” He remarked. While wandering in the ruins of the city; Yukio looked in the car, he saw a decapitated Abomination hand on the car key in the ignition. “Well at least the keys are in the ignition!” He said. Chloe looked down, “Your shoe’s untied!” Chloe pointed out. Sanji looks down to see an Abomination is just about to bite into his ankle but he took down the Abomination. “Whew, that was close. Thanks!” Sanji panted. “No prob, dude.” Chloe said. They walked ahead when an Abomination is feasting on the body parts as it grinned sadistically at Chloe and the others. “This would be a good time to turn back now!” Jet whimpered. “Like hell we’re turning back, do you know who you’re talking to?” Chloe said with a smirk. Chloe took down the Abomination and turned but flinched. An Abomination woman jumps out with her hands out. “Scared yet?” Chloe asked. “Not likely.” Zoro replied. “I didn’t think so.” Chloe said smugly. Chloe, Zoro, Sanji and Ban took down the Hellion woman. While continuing on ahead, they caught wind of something---A young woman crouching at the wall, looking all traumatized. “Help…Me….” She managed to squeak out. Ban looked at Chloe incredulously. But Chloe reached over quickly and seized her as she jumped out the window. She got the woman to escape however the Abomination had green substance around its mouth while the man had some on him but is shell shock. Then, the guy was mauled alive and Ban took down the green covered Abomination in soaking blood! Abominations charged at Chloe and the rest but Chloe gunned them all down! The Abomination’s body exploded and toppled over Ban, who stepped back just in time. They made their way to the dungeon of where Lavina Andrin was and the gang looked around in empty rooms. While looking in a book, Mikleo is horrified to see a decapitated hand attached to the book and drops it on the ground. Meanwhile; Jane stabs an Abomination in the abdomen while it was cannibalizing a dying man’s guts. “Go team go huh.” Jane retorted. Just then, there was a sound that resembled: “Hokey Pokey” and clowns stepped out with demonic looks on their faces. “Oh look, they’re sending in the clowns! How lovely!” Chloe said with sarcastic cheeriness. “Abomination Clowns?!” Zoro and Sanji exclaimed. “Oh boy!” Jane grunted. “Things just got exciting.” Ban remarked. “Well that guy has some important clown business to attend to!” Zoro claimed about an Abomination clown juggling decapitated head and other parts. Zoro took down the Abomination when a little boy running away from the other Abomination clowns, “Clowns are gonna eat me!” He cried. Sanji pulled the boy close and got him to safety, “Go! Get going and don’t stop, kid.” He instructed so the boy did. Chloe and the gang were shocked when an Abomination clown ran over a teenage boy, it was a bloody road kill! “Dammit to hell!” groaned Chloe. Chloe lugged around the huge hammer nearby while glaring at the grinning Abomination clowns coming at her. “I hate clowns.” She grumbled.  As they were walking along; an Abomination woman, motionless and topless, sat at the bar with many shots in front of her. This made Sanji all googily eyed and pervy when the bartender is found dead in a grisly fashion shocked him. The woman got on top of Sanji and kill him however Zoro stops her but the Abomination woman took it as a ‘three way’ but Mika slays the woman half of her head off, shocking the others. “Whoa…Nice one…” Ban remarked. “I don’t like to waste time, let’s keep moving!” Mika said with no emotion in his voice. Moving alongside, Jane bashed an Abomination in the shower. “Careful, don’t drop the soap! Been there, done that y’know.” She remarked grimly. Chloe and the gang made their way down when they saw: A guard was having lunch as Abominations were about to attack but Chloe and gang took them out one by one. Chloe looked at him, “If we hadn’t come here in time, you’d be dead and that would’ve been your last meal. Now listen, we’re not here to kill you, we’re here to know a certain prisoner…Where is Lavina Andrin?” Chloe said. Moments after; the guard lead them to Lavina’s prison and Chloe slowly crept up to the girl whose back was to the bars of her prison. “Leave me be, I won’t be the subject of your venereal acts anymore!” Lavina whimpered. Chloe knelt down, “Calm down, Lavina. We mean no harm.” She said. Lavina turned around and she looked curious. “Who are you? Wait, don’t tell me! You’re Chloe Birchhart aren’t you?” Lavina asked. “Yup.” Chloe replied. Lavina smiled widely, “Oh my god! Evermore does exist! Hell yes, I knew it!” She exclaimed. Lavina explains that Titanium Capital used to believe in supernatural but somebody else proved there was no such thing and that’s how the townspeople stopped believing in supernatural because of this however Lavina wanted people to believe again and heard about Evermore as she wanted to go to DWC soon. “I just want to belong that’s all.” Lavina finally said. “I could belong too, if you don’t mind the company.” Chloe replied. Lavina smiled widely. Chloe gestured Ban to break apart the cage bars so he does and Lavina was free! As they were leaving; Chloe and the others found the guard dead with a head wound bleeding open. “Lavinnnnnaaaaa, where are you friggin hussy? I want to roast your ass teats and serve ‘em in oyster sauce and blood! I’ll slice them so clean, you’ll like a battered porcelain doll!” A female voice ringed out with a giggle. Lavina felt her blood run cold, “Oh god, it’s the nurse!” She gasped. The nurse approached as she too is an Abomination: Her clothes are torn, her hair is wild and her breasts are exposed. She held a syringe with orange liquid, a vicious smile on her face. “Oh Lavina, it’s time for your daily doses. And I’ll give you the rubber glove treatment!” She said with a crazy laugh. Lavina was shocked, she backs away however she found a rifle and picked it up before aiming at her. In a choked up voice; Lavina said, “Thank you for being a friend before you became this way. Goodbye…” And pulled the trigger, killing her. Lavina followed the others to the exit but found one of the girls dead and another one alive. However, Chloe and the gang were shocked to find one of the girls who is pregnant but she is an Abomination: “You dogs screwing? No?! You know what he did? That effing prick?! I’m GREAT with CHILD!!! I GOT A LARVAE WORM PUMPED IN MY GUT, I WANNA EAT THE DAMN PISS ANT, WHIMPERING LI’L BASTARD!!” She exclaimed. “Oh god!” Lavina exclaimed. Jane shot the girl to death, horrifying Chloe and the gang. Next, Jane performs C section on the dead girl but the baby turns out to be an Abomination and tries to kill her however Lavina mercy kills the infant and her friend, then Lavina burst into tears over what she down. “I can’t save everyone!” She wailed. Chloe put her arm around her, “It’s not your fault.” She assured her. “Everything I touches dies!!! WHY GO ON, I’LL HURT OTHERS!!!” sobbed Lavina. She continued to cry while the others watch her with pity in their eyes. Just then, Armin came beside her and Lavina turns to him. Armin then spoke, “It is painful, but you have to keep moving forward. You can’t change what you did, you can see this as a learning experience and maybe your friend and the child could rest in peace, they’re free.” Lavina brushed the tears away. “You’re right, thank you.” She said. Lavina composed herself and got up while propping a sniper around her. Chloe contacted Sylver and tell her the news. “We got the girl, we’re heading back soon. We’re gonna deal with Behemoth.” Chloe reported. Sylver smiled, “Excellent! I knew you could it.” She said. “Heh, Justine Magnus—eat your heart out.” Chloe said. “Just get back soon as possible, Tita grows worried.” Sylver warned. “First Behemoth, then Lavina gets to reunite with her mother. Did you get that?” Chloe said excitedly. Sylver muttered to herself, “Soon enough Ophelia.” Zoro, Sanji and Ban were surprised: “What?” They asked. Sylver shook her head, “Nothing, Sylver Out.” She said. Chloe and the gang were standing out in front of the abandoned hotel of Vanilla Sky Inn. “You sure he’s in there?” asked Ban. Chloe nodded, “Big Guy like Behemoth? He’s lurking in there.” She replied. “You guys ready?” inquired Chloe, turning to the others. But her friends were determined. “Too late to turn back now.” Zoro said. “We got a sharp toothed guppy in there waiting. Let’s go!” Sanji confirmed. While in the lobby; Chloe and the others didn’t think Behemoth was coming at all and thought he must’ve melted like a snowman. Just then, a voice roared scaring everyone: “Raaaaarrrrggggghhhhhh!!!! WHO DARES DISTURBED THE GREAT BEHEMOTH? You’ll be bloody hummus when I’m done with you!” The footsteps were heavy and felt like an earthquake thundering coming closer! Chloe gasps. “Ah, Behemoth doth approach!” Jane exclaimed. No words could describe how monstrous he was: Behemoth is brawn and talks like a caveman. He isn’t smart enough but makes it up for with his strength. They say Behemoth has three percent body fat however he has thirty percent of muscle, he is brawny but not overweight. He wears a denim vest, denim jeans, no shirt, blood and white stuff on his clothes, bald hair, missing teeth and his teeth are rotten. He held a staff made out of human organs and skin. “I’m Behemoth, bitches!” He exclaimed. Chloe glide kicks Behemoth in the head, he grunts against the impact from the kick and he seized Bonnie’s ankle as he threw her in the opposite direction. He then stalked over to her and grabbed her neck in an attempt to choke her to death while screaming: “GIRL DIE! GIRL DIE!!!! DIE HUSSY!!!!” Sanji kicked Behemoth off his feet, Chloe spring up as Behemoth struggles up to his feet. “You OK?” Sanji asked. “Yeah, thanks.” Chloe panted. Jane was slammed into the wall, the force knocks her out cold. Ban picked her up gently, “I got her, don’t worry. Just take of Behemoth.” He said. Behemoth laughed, “Girl like you are gonna taste good like women will large bellied bitches with fetuses.” He mocked. Lavina stared at him in horror, “One of the girls…You ate her….BASTARD!!!” She screamed and charged at him but was knocked over however Ban caught her. Chloe felt her knees buckled, she saw Behemoth coming at her. Her wound in her chest caused her to crumpled in a ball and spoke out, “Don’t come any closely…” Behemoth laughed, “Wass the matter?” He said. Just then, Chloe turned into a harpy as she scared him! But she nearly lost control however Ban stopped her and calm her down. Chloe does so as she panted. “Welcome back, Darkbloom.” Ban greeted. However Behemoth was towering over them. “It’s not over…Not yet….” He said but he stutters when his face explodes into bloody pieces. Lavina screams in terror and Behemoth’s body collapses. Chloe and the others escaped when Lavina got stuck in a bear trap as Abominations were coming to a head, everyone was shocked when Jane cries out to Armin: “YOU BETTER SAVE HER LI’L ASS, COLOSSUS TITAN!!!” Armin stares at her in shock. Jane smirks at her, “THAT’S RIGHT ARLERT, I KNOW WHO YOU ARE—NOW GET UP ON YOUR FEET AND SAVE HER NOW!!!! DO IT!!!!” She shouted. Armin ran as he turned into a Titan and saved Lavina. Chloe and the others were in shocked as Armin’s Titan form mauled all the Abominations before he turned back to normal. Barnaby and Chloe got him out of there just in time. However; Zoro and Sanji want to throttle Armin however Ban and Barnaby held them back from getting violent as Armin explains his side of things. When Zoro and Sanji heard this, they were understanding about it but felt left out by how Chloe’s team was filled with ‘monsters’. 

In the meantime at some sort of alcohol free party; Chloe was sitting alone when Rayna and Justine approach her. “Well, well, the resourceful detective and the designated Lois Lane.” Chloe said with a smile. “Brie said you’d be here. And there’s a lot of rumors involving someone new to your quarters.” Rayna said. “Really? The so called hot psycho that’s getting girls’ girlhood tremble?” Chloe joked. “Ha, like hell.” Justine barked. Rayna sits besides Bonnie with an excited smile. “I need the scoop on this ‘hot psycho’ I’ve been hearing about, so sit and spill.” Rayna said. So Chloe open the floodgates. As she heard what Chloe has been up to; Rayna reacts with gasps, breathed out: “Oh my god!” and dramatic slaps of her hand over her heart. Meanwhile; the woman was talking to the crowd that there was no more room and the crowd was outrage so the woman turned back to her papers when she felt someone over her though she didn’t look up. “Is there room for more?” Meliodas asked. “Sorry, there isn’t…” The lady said turning but when she saw Ban, her mouth was slacked open before she composed herself and said, “Yes. There’s always room for one more.” Meliodas beamed, “Gee thanks miss.” He said. “Yeah, thanks lady. You’re a doll.” Ban said. They entered inside as girls swooned over Ban but guys just stared in jealous annoyance. “Hey, what does HE have that we haven’t got?!” One of the guys asked. “Everything, baby.” One of the girls replied dreamily. There was a commotion that got Chloe, Justine and Rayna’s attention. Rayna stared in amazement with eyes big as saucers when she saw Ban! “That’s him?” Rayna asked. Chloe smiled, “Yup.” She said with a nod. “Cute. No, more than that….Hottie.” Rayna said, she looked at him like he was something good to eat. Chloe smiled wider, “His name is Ban.” She said. “He looks harmless.” Justine retorted. Chloe laughed, “Not exactly.” She goaded. Ban approached Chloe. “Sup Ban?” Chloe greeted, “How you holding up?” Ban looked deadpanned, “Peachy. Whew, talk about a party! But no booze…NOTHING!!” He exclaimed. “Oooh, that sucks.” Chloe said with a wince. Ban was irked, “Tell me about it.” He noticed Justine and Rayna. “Who are these ladies?” Ban asked. “Ban, this is Justine Magnus and Rayna Hurst.” Chloe said. “Hiiii…” Rayna said weakly. “Pleasure to meet you. Stud.” Justine remarked dully. “Stud?” Chloe asked. “What are you so ticked about?” Ban retorted. “They don’t have any friggin’ booze, what do you think?” Justine snapped. “Really? I thought I was the only one.” Ban said. Chloe sighed, “Sorry, she’s always like this. Guess she’s a bit spineless.” She remarked. Rayna looked at her, Justine gritted her teeth in anger but Chloe didn’t even noticed. “Well, I’m gonna try enjoy this celebration. See ya.” Ban said and walked away. Rayna breathed, “Wow, serious hotness factor. He looks like he can swing a hammer to me. He’s melted man candy!” She said with a slight squeal in her voice. Justine whirled around, glaring at her. “’Ey!” She remarked. Rayna held her hands up, “Don’t blame me, blame the hormones.” She retorted. “Holy Mary! Talk about a badass.” Justine said. From afar; Jessica appeared as she said: "Fellow citizens of Titanium Capital! As terrifying as this may be, let us put this aside and celebrate. For this one day, of course! What a celebration we'll have today, let us have a celebration and finally away from the wicked because we couldn't be happier. Right here, look at what we got. A fairy tale plot in our life." She said cheerfully.  Although they were celebrating, the townspeople were gossiping quite a lot. There were talks of Juno Storm: Some say she comes by and lets the citizens she's arrived by letting out a screech as she comes out from hiding. Others say she has extra eyes that are always kept awake, her skin could shed so easily like a snake, and her skin is so unclean. Ganymede clenched his teeth, he was upset to hear this. “Do you hear this shit?! Ugh, people are so empty-headed they'll believe anything!” exclaimed Chris, a few people turn their heads. Jessica glance at the crowd as she then said, “Excuse me just a moment!” Jessica and Ganymede talk aside, away from the crowd. “I can't just stand here beaming like the rest of them, imagining going along with all of this!” Ganymede said. Jessica glance back at him, “Do you really think I like to hear them say those awful things about her? I hate it!” She whispered. Ganymede looked around with disgust, “Then what are we doing here? Let's go, let's get out of here and do what you used to!” He suggested. Jessica looked at him with horror, “We can't leave now, not when people are looking to us to elevate their fortitudes.” She griped. “You can't leave, because you can't resist this. And that is the truth.” Ganymede pointed out. Jessica sighed, “Oh Ganymede, I miss her too, but we can't just stop living. No one has searched harder for her than you. But don't you see? She doesn't want to be found. We have to face it.” She explained. They return back to the celebration. One of the girls name Adriana tries to get Ganymede’s attention with a seductive wink and a little wave but Ganymede scoffs this off. Then, Adriana accuses Jessica for being a prude. But the chandelier that was hanging from above was about to crash onto Adriana! Everyone screams, they saw a girl approaching “It’s her, Juno Storm!” Adriana whispered. Juno approached by saying, “I welcome you to my home that solely belonged to me and I wish you keep the Henshaw Family safe. And my salary is due.” Curtis glances at her in disbelief, “She has a salary?” He asked. “Why yes, the city pays her about one thousand, seven hundred and ninety nine trillions of dollars.” Replied a dark figure. Curtis was outrage as he exclaimed: “One thousand, seven hundred and ninety nine trillions of cash?!” Sylver watched this as she was breathless, Jessica came beside her and tells her about Juno’s teen years: As a 13 year old girl; Juno is scandalous party girl and also an extrovert social butterfly, and a young lady of fashion who loved enjoying life to the fullest. She was known of her extravagant and very luxurious lifestyle, extrovert personality, she loved hanging out with her friends and having parties. Her love for fashion, enjoyments, indulgences, luxuries, parties and fun. She was the most scandalous party girl of her time no doubt about it – and also her extravagant taste in fashion created a style for whole new generations of young women to come.  But she was also just a bubbling personality who loved social life, enjoying life … and also spending lovely time in her idyllic countryside cottage. The palace is a huge palace with equally huge gardens, parks and lakes – and even countryside meadows and farm cottages are included in the palace’s area. Juno learned to love and enjoy the extravagant, luxurious lifestyle of royals. She loved hanging out with her like-minded friends and indulging herself with priceless luxury gowns and fabrics, fashion designs made for her, delicacies, desserts and fine cuisine, amazing jewelry, gorgeous shoes and spa-type of treatments.  She used to sleep long, sometimes till midday. Most of all Juno loved dressing her best and going out to social gatherings and parties of upper class, and, to depraved and wild masquerade parties. She went to those parties with her friends. Those masquerade parties of the upper class and royals that Juno participated in, became famous nationwide for their sinful events, extravagant luxury, tables bending of delicacies, gourmet foods and champagne, indulgences and depraved, wild atmosphere--everything was allowed in those parties, including sexual encounters. The masquerade parties were full of upper class dressed in most luxurious, gorgeous, imaginative and extravagant gowns and costumes, jewelry decorated masks and jewelry. They were thrown in Opera Hall – the gorgeous cream cake building in middle of the city. The Opera Hall was luxuriously decorated with gold and velvet, chandeliers, candles, champagne fountains, tons of delicious foods, desserts, candies and cakes, and, amazing-looking people who just wanted to let it loose and get a little crazy, have intimate encounters and drink, eat and party like crazy. There was music, fun, sinful secret encounters and people having the time of their lives. Juno was one of them. She thought she was in safe and unrecognizable with her mask, but she was too stunning not to be recognized. She was said to have intimate encounters in those parties, and for sure she had at least one lover, an aristocrat, that she met in those parties. Even the champagne glasses that they started using in these parties and built gorgeous champagne fountains from them – were created based on the looks of her breasts. She had very giving, sexy gowns. Juno would spend time partying and throwing lavish balls where only the rich and famous would attend. Juno distanced herself from her old life and began spending an increased amount of time at a private castle housed on the grounds of the Palace. Right about this time, there were rumors beginning to surface that claimed Juno was involved in an extra-marital affair with a diplomat. The rumors and disrespect for Juno continued on throughout her stay. In fact, news pamphlets began in circulation that showed Juno and described her love of the extravagant life. Sylver was intrigued, she went up to Juno and her girls who were ecstatic to see her as they let her joined along. One person takes left hand and the other takes the right and walk around one another, pulling slightly on one another's arms to facilitate the turn. Then they walk completely around one another and back to where they started. Sylver was a little klutzy but she managed to get it and soon she was getting the steps. Briar smiles, while watching Sylver was having fun. Occasionally; Sylver looks over at Briar and teasingly sticks her tongue out while laughing and waving. Briar waves back, laughing at how exuberant she was. Meliodas looked over at Sylver, “She seems to enjoy herself.” He said. Briar looked at him, “Is that a problem?” She asked. “No, it’s just…She seems to hang out with them a little too much.” Meliodas said. “Why would you say that?” Briar asked. “Ban had an encounter with Sylver, and…it freaked him out a little.” Meliodas explained. “Oh! I see. I remember that, but um…I didn’t much.” Briar said nervously. Meliodas’s hand was reaching over to Briar’s chest but she swats his hand away. “Uh uh uh! Don’t even!” She scolded. “What? I was just coping a feel.” Meliodas claimed innocently. In the meantime; the harpsichord was playing as the girls were singing, “….They just wanna, they just wanna! They just wanna, they just wanna! They just wanna, they just wanna! They just wanna, they just wanna! They just wanna, they just wanna! They just wanna, they just wanna! They just wanna, they just wanna! They just wanna, they just wanna! They just wanna, they just wanna!” Just then, there was chaos coming from Abominations and Jessica as well as Ganymede took cover. But then, the Hellions was shouting: “DAMN THAT GREEDY FOX BAN!!!! WHY CAN’T HE STAY DEAD?!” Jessica stood there stunned, “Greedy Fox?” She uttered. Her eyes widened with surprise, “They said ‘Greedy Fox’, isn’t that--Is Ban standing behind me?” Jessica asked. Jessica mused in her thoughts, “Ban—from the Seven Deadly Sins…They say he can’t die for some sort of healing factor. I can’t believe he’s behind me.” She gritted her teeth. Jessica felt her breath caught in her throat, she trembled. Jessica decides to see for herself of this ‘Greedy Fox’. So she turns around. At the same time, the heel of her shoe broke and slowly, she raised her head as she saw Ban she felt the lub dub music against the drum that was her heart ringing in her ears. “It’s him!” She thought. Jessica stared up in awestruck of the sight of Ban! “Greedy Fox…Is a sight I’d never forget.” Thought Jessica, totally blushing. Just then; King appeared, escorting Ganymede away as the Abominations attack and causing the villagers to flee. Some were slain, the others couldn’t believe it! “Somebody has to do something!” Jessica said. “Like what?” King asked. “I don’t know, DO SOMETHING!!! HELP THEM!!” Jessica exclaimed in a frenzied. Just then, some sort of power emerged from Jessica that threw the monsters back and killed them. Ban, Ganymede and King was horrified. "What's happening?" Ban said. Jessica realized what she caused as she tried to timidly explained, "I don't know I got angry and then, this happened...." She stopped as her cheeks turned red. Ban looked around, "Alright just....don't get mad at me...Or anyone else for that matter. He then slain the monsters before turning to the others, "Well are you coming?" He asked. Ganymede and Jessica nods, "Let's go!" said Jessica. She and her brother run with Ban and King while they fighting the monsters. "Careful, we don't want to ruin the place." Jessica said. King was annoyed to hear this, "Don't you think that I realize that? You must think we’re really stupid or something!" He said. Ganymede added, "No, you're not really stupid." Jessica was concerned. She didn't know what was going on and it scared her. While battling the Abominations; Ban couldn't help but asked, "Why is it that every time I see you you're causing some sort of commotion?" Jessica rolled her eyes, "Maybe because I am one." She shouts. "And I happen to be genuinely self-absorbed and deeply shallow." Ganymede looked at her in surprise, "No you're not. Or you wouldn't be so unhappy." He said. "Hey, I could go all day and if you guys don't need my help...Or his for that matter." called Ban but Jessica managed to say, "No, we do!" And they got out of there. Once afterwards, the three of them were catching their breaths. Jessica looked at Ban and gasps softly, "Oh look, you're bleeding... those things...they must have scratched you." She said. But saw the wounds being healed, she looked at him. “What are you?” Jessica asked. While waiting, Ganymede saw that Rosemary makes her entrance as she places her arms around Ganymede. Watching while hiding from afar; Jessica can do nothing but watch as her brother falls for Rosemary. “Ganymede…I deeply care about you, I want to protect you. I can ensure you that no harm will come to you. I will be your freedom. I would never wanted anything more, but to be free and loved. I will always be beside you. Protect you and guiding you through the ups and downs of the world. I never want you to be lonely anymore. Wherever you go, I will be there beside you.” Rosemary whispered, echoing the words back at him. Just then, Abominations nearly injured Ganymede but Rosemary tend to him while Juno took down the Abomination that hurt him. Recognizing Juno; Ganymede got to see her, who knelt down to check how he was doing and Ganymede was crying, he apologized for what happened however Juno reassures him that all is well. “I’m just a boy.” Ganymede said in a choked up voice. Juno put a hand on his forehead, “Even if you’re a boy, you can still fight like a girl.” She assured him. Juno looked determined, “I, Juno Storm, being of sound, mind and body will eradicate the Abominations! I will have my revenge, if I get blood on my hands—SO BE IT!!” She declared. Ganymede saw her determination and smiles at her. 


Meanwhile; Pele looked up on the MPD where Chloe was on a mission in the Straw Hat Pirates’ World and watched the memories flooded on there: Chloe heard Briar’s voice calling her name and talking to somebody. The next thing she knew she was picked up off the ground. “Mmmmm….” She moaned. When Chloe looked up, she saw some sort of stoic but tough looking, green haired guy and was flustered. “Oh, a fair maiden? Thank you to the heavens for bringing your league of fair maidens to guide us even this one is promising! I swear, she’s an angel!” One guy came beside the guy to see Chloe with hearts on his eyes, who just wriggled and try to kick the guy, “Back off Don Giovanni, I’m in pain!” Chloe shouted. “Aww, c’mon sweetheart!” The guy pleaded. “Great balls of fire, don’t call me sweetheart!” Chloe warned. “But we have to savor this moment!” The guy begged. Chloe glared at the womanizer, “I don't think so.” She rejoined. “Can I at least know the name of this lost soul?” The guy said. Chloe struggled against the pain, “Uh, Chloe Birchhart.” She answered. “Chloe huh.” The guy said, he gives her a rose and said: “I give you this as a get well soon gift. Here.” Said the guy. Chloe pushed the rose away, “Please!” She moaned and finally got to see the doctor but sends everyone away except the doctor, who is a small reindeer and examines her. The doctor was in shocked by the creature’s bite mark above her bosom; he couldn’t believe what he was seeing of how deep the wound was. “Is it that bad?” Chloe inquired anxiously. “No, I just need my tools.” The reindeer assured. He pulled out his bag with a needle and thread but as he was creating the stitch, he didn’t do the anesthesia. Once poking the needle into her skin; Chloe let out a moan, the doctor cringed. “Sorry, my bad!” He said. “Some doctor you are, I—urgh! Of all the stupid…” grumbled Chloe. Once she got her wound fixed up, Chloe sighed while she composed herself. The Straw Hats seemed to have lost their ship and are trying to relocate it and are using a different ship that the Infestations previously had. She learns that the guys she encountered with is Zoro and Sanji. Chloe then learns she and her friends are going to be staying with these people so Chloe begs and demands for room in the instant. Long nosed guy name Usopp and the reindeer name Tony Tony Chopper seemed to found a room but the other Straw Hats convinced them that this isn’t a good room because it’s a wreck. However; Chloe held her hands up, “No, no—it’s fine. I just need something to block the other broken windows from view.” She said. “Like what?” Usopp asked incredulously. There was a rip and Chloe held out a purple fabric. “Um, a curtain?” She said like a ‘duh’. Chloe marched away and set up the curtain as she replied, “Well ladies and gents, I’m going to sleep so good night!” The Straw Hats watched her retreat to the room. “Um, would you like some company? I’ll send one of the boys in there if you want. You know, for company?” teased Chopper. “I said, GOOD NIGHT!” exclaimed Chloe, startling the others. That night, Chloe couldn’t sleep at night because of Brook’s singing, she struggled to but then she grunted and sat up. Chloe ambled out where she saw Usopp and Chopper there. They saw her and smiled, “Hey, can’t sleep?” Usopp asked. “No, I couldn’t.” Chloe sighed. Moments later; Chloe showed Usopp and Chopper a book, as she spoke: “….And um, that’s Gudrun, the second Valkyrie besides Brynhilde.” Chopper nodded, “Right.” Chloe smiled, “Uh huh.” She said. Usopp looked at the book and turned to Chloe, “Can this book show the future?” He inquired. “Well, no. But it shows stories.” Chloe clarified. “There has to be more—What happened to all of them?!” Chopper begged. “I don’t know really, it was thousands of years.” Chloe said. Usopp sighed. “Hey, what do you do for fun?” Chopper asked. “For fun?” Chloe asked. “You know, when you’re not out and about.” Usopp replied. “Me? I don’t do stuff for fun, and besides the only fun I do is mope.” Chloe said sarcastically as she turns from them. Chopper frowned, “You cut me real deep Chloe.” He perked up and remarked, “You know what I think? You had a rough past.” Chloe looked at him and said with sarcasm, “Nooo, you think?” She then pouted and her legs crossed. Usopp also still pestered her, “You hidin’ something?” Chloe rolled her eyes, “Never mind guys.” She replied. Chopper wasn’t buying it, “Ahhh, this is some sort of complications.” He guessed. “No, this is one of those ‘I don’t want to talk about it’ things.” Chloe said aggregately. “Why not?” Usopp asked. “Why do you care?” Chloe demanded, turning away. “Is it hard to explain?” Chopper pressed. “N—no.” Chloe stammered nervously. “Liar!” Usopp teased. “Usopp, Chopper, I’m warning you!” warned Chloe. “Who do you have against? Huh, who?” Chopper argued. Chloe exhaled while exclaiming, “PEOPLE! OK?!” Usopp and Chopper looked surprised, “Oh now we’re getting somewhere.” Chopper suddenly remarked and grinned. “Ohhhh, of all the things good and….” Chloe huffed. She turned away. “What do you have against us people anyway?”  asked Chopper. “I don’t have anything against no one, it’s people that think I’m a curse. They judge me and think I’m unworthy, why do you think I’m pathetic?” Chloe said sadly. Usopp and Chopper looked at her with sympathy clouded their eyes and came beside her. “You know, when we met…I always thought you were cool. I never thought you were weak.” Chopper said. Chloe looked at them, “You mean it?” She inquired. “Mmm-hmm.” Confirmed Usopp with a nod. This made Chloe smiled, “Thanks.” She answered. And they stared at the stars and moon. The next day, Briar and the others were at breakfast but Briar didn’t see Chloe so Usopp and Chopper decides to go get her and found her still sleeping in her bed. “Wakey-wakey! Look alive, sunny side breakfast awaits for you!” Chopper said in a sing song tone. Chloe ducked into the covers, moaning. “Wakey-wakey up! Up and at ‘em!” Usopp said firmly. Chloe groaned, “All right, all right! I’m up, I’m up, geez! Give me a minute.” She said in a groggy tone. Chloe staggered out and rubbed her eyes. She sat at the table and dazedly looked at her plate in front. “What’s the Hancock building doing here?” She asked. “Chloe? That’s your breakfast.” Briar clarified. Chloe was then wide awake, “Say what?” She inquired. “Morning, um…You hungry?” Sanji asked nicely. “What’s this about?” Chloe asked curiously. “Well, we got off to a bad start and I want to make it up to you. After all; you did had a horrible time yesterday.” Sanji explained. “Um, thanks.” Chloe said. “Eat up; we got a big day ahead of us.” Sanji said. Chloe smiled, despite herself and dug into her breakfast. Once everyone was done; Chloe excused herself to get changed and left. It was then Zoro pulled Sanji aside and hissed: “What the hell are you doing?” Sanji looked at him, “What am I doing? I’m just being nice to her! What’s it to ya?” He demanded. Those two started arguing while Briar watched them, she turned to Luffy and asked in a quiet voice for him to hear: “Are they always like this?” Luffy beamed, “Yeah, they can’t stand each other. Pretty complicated huh?” He said a little brightly. “Yeah, it is.” Briar remarked. Briar was thinking of busting her psychokinesis against with them when she turned to the others and said calmly, “Duck….” Usopp looked over, “What? Is there a duck in the room?” He asked. “No! I mean, DUCK!!!” Briar exclaimed. They all ducked when a clean plate swing in and bam into something. Heads are raised from where they hid; Zoro held the back of his head and Sanji clutched his shoulder. “Ow…” They moaned. They turned angrily and tried to find out who did it but they were shocked to see the doorway. Briar and the others followed their gazes and looked there with shocked. Chloe panted, she was the one that threw that clean plate at Zoro and Sanji. She gritted her teeth as she growled: “Are you kidding me?! It’s early in the morning and you two are fighting? Ugh! No way, no how, not today!” Then she exclaimed in a scary tone, “CAN’T YOU TWO GET ALONG FOR LIKE FIVE MINUTES?!” Briar stared at her friend, “Holy…” She muttered. Chloe was about to advanced when Briar held Chloe back and coaxed her to go get ready. When Chloe came back from changing, her outfit was different—much to everyone’s surprise: Chloe’s outfit was of Gothic and pastel. A black and baby pink top, purple jeans and black combat boots with pale blue laces. It was then Zoro and Sanji learnt that they were gonna be working together with Chloe, which Zoro and Sanji despise each other but Chloe outright refused! “Oh no, I’m not going with these two idiots who can’t stand one another!” Chloe proclaimed. “I’m afraid you don’t have much of a choice, Clo. Gotta make do what you have.” Briar said. “Then, why did you set me up with them?” Chloe demanded. “Good question, you should find out when you’re with them.” Briar remarked. “I rather team up with better people, not a swordsman and a shitty cook!” Chloe replied. “Look you pristine brat, you’re not making my job easier and you’re coming whether you like it or not.” Zoro snapped. “Ha, you wouldn’t dare!” Chloe scoffed. Zoro seized Chloe and put her over his shoulder while Chloe squirmed and thrashed. “Hey, put me down!” She protested while she is being taken away and still ranting. “Put me down or you will suffer the consequences, this is not dignified, put me down….” Chloe exclaimed. Briar waved brightly, “Have fun you three, try not to kill each other!” She hollered cheerfully. And so Briar and the gang head out! Moments later; Chloe had stopped yelling and calmed down. She just hangs there limply while Zoro carries her. Sanji was talking, “OK, let me ask you one more time, do you remember what the face or anything distinguishing? Do you?” He asked. “Like I said, I don’t remember.” Chloe remarked. “Hmm, weird. Are you hiding something?” Sanji asked. “No, I seriously don’t remember.” Chloe insisted. “Don’t sweat it, she probably doesn’t remember much when she got a piercing.” Zoro joked lamely. Chloe scoffs, “That was such a lame joke. That’s not funny.” She remarked with a smirk. “Want to know something funny?” Sanji said with a sneer, “Zoro here doesn’t have enough brains big enough for his muscles; they could likely drain his strength so much.” Zoro scoffs, “Ha, I guess you have the most issues with you being a lost cause to so many women.” He said. “C’mon Chloe ain’t a hard catch.” Sanji said. “No, she’s just bitten! Get it? Just bitten?” Zoro laughed darkly. Chloe laughs along with him but then she kicks Zoro in the shin, he lets out a yelp of pain. Sanji sneered in surprise. Chloe lands on her feet easily; she flipped her hair with a “Hmph!” and then muttered, “Jerks!” Chloe stalked off, muttering to herself incoherently. She was walking off when she heard them debating again: “I think we’re supposed to turn.” Zoro said. “I thought you know exactly where we were going!” Sanji asserted. “Do we go left or right?” inquired Zoro in an irritated voice. Chloe groaned, “What is it now?” She marched over to them, “What are you arguing about now, idiots?” Zoro showed her the map, “Where's north? Tell me which way north is on this map?” He demanded. Chloe looked at the map, “North is always up, and, by the way, you've got it reversed.” She explained. “What? It's up? Reversed? Where the hell?” Zoro said. Chloe looked in disbelief, “He doesn’t know?” She asked Sanji. “Got poor direction.” Sanji exclaimed. “Oh, brother. He's seriously nuts.” Sighed Chloe. Later, they were still getting at each other: “I keep telling you, we gotta go north!” Chloe exclaimed. “Sorry, but tell me again, is north the direction of the hand you hold your fork with?” Zoro asked. “This guy is really nuts.” Chloe grunted. Zoro and Sanji were still bickering when Chloe heard a growl sound, she shushed the boys: “Shh, the hell was that?” That’s when they heard a roar! Just then, the creature exposed himself and jumped out; scaring Chloe, Zoro and Sanji! The creature completely skewed and scarred by fungus developed from their infected brains. The fungal plates have apparently adapted to keep the pathogen alive and able to spread, as a direct shot to the head with a powerful weapon such as a revolver will more often than not just break off a chunk of the mold, leaving the brain harmed but exposing the victim's head. The creature was dangerous and much more aggressive as it had bioluminescent vein in its head. They have fungal growths on the head and back with glowing white eyes, the development of pseudo-echolocation, and their discretion upon spotting a victim at distance. They strafe and take cover, eventually closing in on the victim, they charge directly at the victim. Chloe stepped away but fell into a hole and realized Zoro and Sanji are in trouble so she decides to save them but disguises herself. In an instant; Chloe became a Goth girl with a red and black checkered skirt, a black smock with long sleeves, a pair of fishnet tights, fishnet gloves and knee high boots. And wore a black wig to boot! She then slipped out and found Zoro and Sanji while sneaking behind them. “Hey!” Chloe exclaimed. Zoro and Sanji turned around startled as they saw her. “What?” They asked. “Are you Zoro and Sanji?” Chloe asked. Luckily, those two don’t recognize it’s Chloe. “Yes.” Zoro replied. Sanji became instantly smitten, “Well, you sure are a sight worth seeing!” He complimented. “Aww, how sweet! C’mon let’s blow this pop stand!” Chloe replied sarcastically. “Hold it, where did you come from? Are you gonna kill us?” Zoro asked. “No, now get moving! We gotta bust a move!” Chloe said. “Man, what’s with the makeup?” Zoro demanded. “It’s a guise, ‘kay?” Chloe snapped. “Well, this is a first.” Zoro retorted. Chloe turned to them in surprise, “First time being saved from a strange girl huh?” She asked. “Yup.” Sanji said. Chloe let out a yelp, she kicked down the door and hurried out. Just then, there was a blood curdling roar. “You didn’t slay that monster?” Zoro demanded. “It’s on my to-do list, now let’s Vamos!” Chloe demanded. “What kind of girl are you?” Zoro exclaimed. Chloe turned and sneered, “One hell of a kind!” Chloe exclaimed. She used her powers to take down the monsters and managed to get the guys to safety. Once they were safe, Chloe gasped for breaths. “That was wonderful! But unorthodox I’ll admit.” Sanji said. “C’mon, that was lousy and you know it!” Zoro complained. “It wasn’t that bad, idiot! Besides, what do you think would’ve happened if this black haired angel didn’t come and save us!” Sanji said. Chloe cocked her hips and smirked, “OK, I hope you heard that right—He called me an angel.” She said. Then squealed: “He thinks I’m an angel!” Sanji chuckled but Zoro rolled his eyes. “Mind taking off the guise?” Sanji asked. Chloe looked nervous, “Um…Nein!” She proclaimed. “Why not?” inquired Zoro. “I—I’m a froggy, frumpy chick!” Chloe lied. “Oh don’t give us that crap, I’m sure you’re different from the other pirates.” Zoro said convincingly. Chloe was stunned to hear this: “Wait, wait a sec—you think I’m a pirate?” Chloe asked. “Um, yes.” Zoro said. Chloe stared at them before bursting out laughing, “You guys think I’m a pirate!” She said while still giggling. “What’s so funny?” Sanji inquired annoyed. “Let’s just say I’m not what you think I am.” Chloe claimed. “Of course you are, come on take-off the guise.” Sanji said. “Um, no thank you! I’m not comfortable with this.” Chloe said. “Remove the disguise.” Zoro said in a biting tone. “I’m not going to.” Chloe said firmly. “Don’t make me pissed off, remove the disguise right now!” Zoro demanded. “No!” Chloe exclaimed. “NOW!” hollered Sanji. “All right, all right, take it easy! As you wish, my liege…Dammit, cannot believe I’m doing this.” Chloe said with a moan. Chloe took out a handkerchief and wiped the makeup off while removing her wig. She noticed the two guys looked stunned. “Ta-da.” Chloe said with a dramatic motion with arms in sarcasm. “I—it’s you.” Sanji said stunned. Chloe gave them a weird look, then she said with rolling eyes. “Ohh, were you expecting someone else?” She retorted. “I didn’t know that was…You….” Zoro said, truthfully, “That was all you?” Chloe stood there confidently, “Aye sir!” She proclaimed. “You’re not exactly what I’d expected.” Zoro admitted. “Maybe you shouldn’t judge people before you get to know them.” Chloe rejoined. She laughs while walking away when all of a sudden, she got pounced and rolled down! Chloe struggled with the Infestation, who let out a raspy laugh and taunted her: “I’ll cut you in half! I’ll tear your heart out and when I’m finished, your body will be in---” But then, the Infestation was kicked and Chloe gasped as she saw it was Sanji who glared at the creature. “Damn, that was annoying!” Sanji exclaimed. “Holy crow!” gasped Chloe. Zoro looked annoyed, “Tch.” He tsked. “Ohhh, you ingrate human!!!” screamed another Infestation and the brethren started pounced. Weapons were triggered; Zoro seized Chloe to protect her. But Sanji didn’t hesitate to fight back against the monsters and took them out! Once he was done; he sighed and walked over to Chloe with a hangdog smile. “Shall we?” Sanji asked. He walked off as Chloe stared with wide eyes. “Wait a minute!” She said, shoving Zoro back. She rushed after Sanji as she was excited. “Hold the phone, where the hell did that come from dude?” Chloe asked with excitement. “What?” Sanji said. “Back there, that was the best damn thing I’ve seen! Where did you learn that?” Chloe claimed. Sanji looked modest, “Well, I trained a long time and it’s no big so…” He stopped and saw Chloe’s bosom but his eyes widened. “You perv! Don’t looked at my chest!” Chloe protested. “There’s an arrow in your chest.” Sanji said calmly. Chloe looked at him confused, “Huh?” She asked. “There’s a friggin’ arrow in your chest!” Zoro exclaimed. Chloe looked down, “Oh hello there!” She said. Tilda, Usopp and Chopper came and asked what was going on but soon saw the arrow in Chloe’s chest: “OH CRAP!!! Is it in your lungs? Are you still able to take in air properly?” Usopp yelled. “Hey, hey, I’m OK.” Chloe said calmly. “Keep breathing! Don’t move your chest so much~!” Chopper exclaimed, waving his hooves around as Chloe sighed in annoyance. Tilda comes to Chloe’s rescue and convinced Usopp and Chopper to find plants as Zoro agreed with her logic. Usopp and Chopper are convinced and goes with Tilda. As they were gone; Chloe cocked her head confused, “What’s the plants for?” She asked. Zoro glanced at her smugly, “To get rid of Chopper and Usopp.” He remarked. “Ah, I see!” Chloe said with a simple nod. “Now stay still so I can gouge this out.” Zoro said, pulling on the arrow which made Chloe jump back. “Ow, easy man!” She squalled. “Sorry, but it needs to be dislodged.” Zoro protested. Chloe backed away, “No, no don’t!” She said while Zoro chased her, “Hey, don’t move!” He hollered. Chloe claimed, “I’m fine really.” Zoro grunted, “Stop it!” He growled. “Hapaya!” Chloe laughed a little. “Chloe!” Zoro said with annoyance. Chloe stopped and held a hand up quickly, “HALT!” Zoro froze, he made a face and put her hand down, grabbing her wrist in the process. Chloe squeaked. “Fine, got any better ideas?” Zoro snapped. Chloe turned to Sanji and grinned, “How did you guess?” She asked. Tilda, Usopp and Chopper was looking for plants as Usopp and Chopper yammering: “Let’s see, where—where--where? Ha, ha, ha, can’t find it!” Then, Chloe’s yells caused Usopp and Chopper to hurry but Isabel is disturbed to think Chloe’s gasping yelps sounded like she was having copulatory congress. “Ahhh! Seriously?” Chloe groaned. Zoro had the arrow halfway out, “OK, calm down. I can see the head of it, it’s coming out a little…” He said. Chloe grunted, she threw her hands up while saying, “ENOUGH YOU---!” But she accidentally fell onto Zoro and tripped Sanji on accident. The three of them are embarrassed and discomfited. “Well, this is awkward.” Chloe admitted. “A--hem!” A voice said. Chloe, Zoro and Sanji look up to see Tilda, Usopp and Chopper smirking. “It’s not what you think…” Chloe claimed, pushing the two away while composing herself. “We were um…” Chloe started to explain but Usopp and Chopper was shaking her head, trying not to laugh. “Look, if you wanted a ménage a trios, you could’ve said something OK?” Tilda joked. Chloe shuddered, “No! I’m not that girl! Are you trying to assume I want something like that? It’s just simply—Ah!” She said but then she yelped when the arrow gouged out instantly. Chloe turned around stunned to see Sanji holding the arrow sheepishly. She turned to him, looking stunned. “….Ow.” Chloe rasped. “Hey, what’s that?” Usopp asked. “It’s blood.” Chopper remarked. “Yay!” Usopp cheered and fainted. Chloe and Tilda was surprised, Zoro sighed and picked up Usopp’s body while carrying her. The group reunited with Briar and the gang while they arrived at a tall building. “There it is, ladies. The ship before you.” Zoro said to Briar and the other girls. “That's your pirate ship?” Chloe asked. “Yeah, I know. It's pretty shady and crappy looking...” Usopp retorted but Franky steps on his foot. “Ow!” Usopp cried.  “Um, I, uh- - I guess we better move on.” Zoro replied in an awkward tone. Chloe nodded, “Sure. But, boys? I'm - - I'm worried about Usopp and Chopper.” She said. Zoro was confused, “What?” He asked. “I mean, look at them. They don't look so good.” Chloe claimed. Zoro realized this and played along, Sanji was surprised by what Chloe was up to and smirked a bit. “What are you talking about? We’re fine.” Chopper assured clueless. Chloe forced them to look at her in the eyes, “That's what they always say, and then next thing you know, you're on your back.” She paused and said, “…Dead from the neck up.” Usopp and Chopper looked shocked, while Zoro commented: “You know, she's right. You look awful.” Sanji looked concerned, “Do you want to sit down?” He asked. “You know, I'll make you some tea.” Offered Chloe. “OK, I think you guys are right. I uh, Chopper? Do I look like I might go on my back ‘cause I have this pain in my spine!” Usopp said all panicking. Chopper also panicked, “Oh! Really? Why didn’t you say something? I think I can’t feel my toes either! WAIT! I DON’T HAVE ANY TOES!” He yelled. "Who's hungry? I'll make dinner." Sanji offered. "Splendid, I love some." Chloe remarked. Later; Sanji is cooking the rest of dinner while Chloe eats with the others but she is alone with him. “Mmm. This is good. This is really good. What is this?” said Chloe with a mouthful food while trying not to open her mouth too wide. “Uh, Bone-in Meat.” Sanji said. “No kidding. Well, this is delicious.” Chloe remarked, smiling. Sanji smiled, “Well, they're also great in stews. Now, I don't mean to brag, but I make a mean Bone-in Meat Stew.” He said. Chloe and Sanji chuckles until Chloe sigh. “I never knew someone was so nice to me, I never had food this good before.” She remarked. “I'll cook all kind of stuff for you. Sky Fish Sauté, Potato Paille - - you name it.” Sanji said with a grin. Chloe smiles shyly, “I'd like that.” They smiles at each other. “Um, Chloe?” Sanji asked. “Yes, Sanji?” Chloe solicited timidly. “I, um, I was wondering...are you...” Sanji started to say. Just then; Zoro appeared, “Hey, what are you two doing?” He snarled. Chloe and Sanji jumped back from each other in surprise, Zoro noticed. “What? Am I interrupting something?” He asked with a smirk. “Yes.” Sanji scowled. “No—what is it?” Chloe asked. “There’s trouble, you gotta come see this.” Zoro remarked. Moments after; Chloe, Zoro and Sanji saw a mass of destruction of some sort of building. “Oi vey, what happened here?!” exclaimed Chloe. Zoro shook his head in disbelief, “Nothing... nothing at all.” He said. “What do you mean nothing at all?” demanded Sanji. “Hey, how can I explain it? There’s no tracks, no footprints, it’s like nobody was here!” protested Zoro. “Now that is weird.” Chloe remarked. “Tell me about it.” Zoro retorted. “Hello, looking for somebody?” A voice said. Chloe, Zoro and Sanji turned to see Megaera standing there. “No way, Megaera the Shrew! How the hell did you find us?” demanded Chloe. Megaera was about to speak, but stopped and looked at her sister and cousin, “How did we found them again?” She asked. “Um, the MPD? Remember?” Tisiphone asked. Megaera nodded, “Ah yes, back to business.” She recalled. And smirked devilishly. Chloe laughed nervously, “I don’t get it, why me? What did I ever do to you?” She asked. “Just think of yourself as a rash that won’t stop scratching. Like a stain won’t go away, a zombie that won’t stay dead.” Megaera said. “In other words in English--That’s how annoying you are.” Cleena clarified. “Of course, that’s what she meant.” Tisiphone said. Chloe knew her dreaded fate, “We’re so screwed.” She said. “Heyyyy, what’s all the habaloo?” A fake accented. Chloe, Zoro and Sanji were surprised to see a young lady in a red cashmere sweater and black poodle skirt. “Who the hell are you?” Megaera demanded. The girl with the fake accent spoke up, “Oh? You’re trespassing in greater territory. You see, look at this place--It's garish, ugly and smells like piss. Can't quite make out whether it's bums or rats, but it's piss. I'm a connoisseur when it comes to eau de toilette. As for the other parts, any innocent little child getting on one could be maimed or worse.” Megaera looked annoyed, Chloe cocked her head. “You don’t like it.” She stated the obvious. The girl was shocked, “Don't like it? I'm crazy for it!” She gushed. Chloe saw that it was Pansy and smiled. Zoro and Sanji noticed, Zoro leaned over and whispered: “I have a feeling you know this girl.” Chloe shrugged, “I guess.” She said. “You sure know how to ruin us!” Megaera growled. So the girl appeared with an enticing offer of playing a game of calamity poker and Megaera agreed. However, Chloe and the guys were watching the calamity from above as they noticed the girl was strategic and somehow won the game finally by checking and had right cards. Megaera is shocked, “What?” She gasped. Zoro and Sanji were shocked while Chloe smiles at this. “Ha ha! I win!” The girl cheered in her fake accent. “No way, you cheated.” Megaera accused. “Now, now, don’t be a sore loser. We had a good game.” The girl said. “You really are something.” Megaera remarked. “I hope you're wrong about that.” The girl said. “Come on, a little spit and polish, you'll have yourself one hell of a game to play.” Megaera replied. “Oh, you are so right, and thanks to your smooth sportsmanship and your silver tongue, I'm completely sold. Let's shake on it.” The girl said. Megaera nodded, taking her hand. “Sure, sure, it's my privilege.” She said. “Yes, yes, it is.” The girl said. Megaera sighed and leaves but she turns and attacks the girl, unveiling her! Chloe gasped, Megaera gritted her teeth: “Pansy Fury.” She said in between teeth. “PANSY, GET OUT OF THERE!!!” Chloe cried, shocking Zoro and Sanji. “I’m on it!” Pansy called. There were dark shapes that swiftly went by. “Who are they?” Zoro asked. “Spit and Polish, my friends. They persuaded your ‘friends’ to sign over the paperwork about an hour ago. The property's already mine. I can see that you're happy about that. Now, I must dash. There's equipment to rent, plus workers to hire, and of course, I need to secure my main attraction. Do feel free to stick around.” Pansy said. There was chaos as Chloe, Zoro and Sanji escaped! Once they were away; Chloe and the guys were catching their breaths. “So you do know her, her name is Pansy.” Zoro said. “Yeah, I do…In a way, it’s a long story. She used to be a troubled girl but she’s changed. You have to admit, she saved out asses!” Chloe pointed out. “OK, fine. We’ll leave it at that.” Zoro admitted. Later; Chloe takes a self blood test as she tries to find out what’s wrong with her and was shocked to figure it out: “I’m a harpy?!” Chloe gasped by the results. Afterwards; Briar was in the shower when she heard something or someone calling out. “Briar! I need you for a second!” It sounded like Luffy but couldn’t be sure. Briar came out of the shower, looking around: “Hey, who said they needed me?” She called. No one answered; she tried again but nothing when a shadow figure appeared behind her. Then, a hand went through Briar’s chest. Briar gasped and drops her arms and head, her towel fell off and dropped to the ground. Nico Robin was shocked when she used her Devil’s Fruit powers, “I’m so sorry!” She choked out but then she heard a ‘lub dub’ sound coming from Briar! She was naked and covered in blood, but her heart was out of her chest yet it was still beating! Briar raised her head up as her appearance changed, scaring everybody. “Hello.” Briar purred. Freaked out; Nico pulled her Hana Hana hands out of Briar’s chest and her heart was sink back in and she returned to normal. Overcome with shock; Nami fainted. “Nami, Nami!” Randi cried, coming to her aid. The others were concerned for their friend. When Nami awoke; she was overcome with shock as she looks at Briar, who assured the others that she was not a threat. Just then; there were papers flying in the wind! It was then Briar and her friends got bounties: Briar is referred to as ‘Wild Rose Briar’, Chloe is ‘Dark Witch Chloe’, Randi is ‘Enchantress Randi’, Maggie is ‘Blood Wolf Maggie’, Tilda is ‘Ice Queen Tilda’ and Marina is ‘Light-Bringer Marina’. Briar, Chloe and Randi were stunned while Maggie is excited but Tilda and Marina are intrigued. When it ends, Pele leaned back and looked impressed. “Interesting, you have made yourself useful.” She remarked.
