Chapter 23 - The Tale Of The 4 Great Beards!

Shancklehaff was going along the forest walk as he saw a hungry, beat up kid lying down on a bench. He had approached the child slowly as the light, shining on the trees had spotlighted the kid.Shancklehaff grabbed the kid by the head and lifted it up so the kid was looking at him.

"What are ya doing out here all alone kiddo?" Shancklehaff asked

"Abandoned" The kid replied

"What's yer name?" Shancklehaff continued

"Marcus, Marcus Maloinavinski" They answered

Shancklehaff Seemed a bit shocked about this, Almost petrified. He opened his mouth but no sound came out, He felt like his tounge was torn from his mouth. Finally,.Shancklehaff got the courage to ask, "So....Why did ye parents abandon ya?"

"They had kept ignoring to take proper care of me and whenever they did recognize me it was just when they wanted to abuse me. I was socially awkward and was hated by everyone I came across. For punishment I was usually starved for a month or I would have one of my limbs broken. So one day l told them to go to the deepest darkest pits of hell and to never come out and they didn't respond nicely to this"Marcus said as he began to cry

"They had grabbed me by my collar and the slammed me against a tree and had punched me repeatedly then they threw me to the ground and started stomping on me. The worst part is that my mother didn't do anything to stop it for it was usually my father who abuses me. I was crying like crazy. Blood ran down my face and I was slowly crawling away from them." Marcus sobbed

"A year after this my mother had gotten serious power and also became a mayor and she later captured and tortured my father until he died, She didn't want me to know this but I saw it anyway." He continued

"What's Ye mom's name again?" Shancklehaff asked

"Rebecca Maloinavinski" He replied

Shancklehaff seemed rather shocked about the info. He once again struggles to open his mouth but like before he prevailed.

"Well then....Let ME tell ya a story about meself!" Shancklehaff Exclaimed

"Once upon a time, There was an almighty pirate Lord named AllBeard Retanair, Why is he the Lord of pirates ye might ask? Well it's because he's immortal and not only that but he wieldedd an invincible sword which lets him win every battle. Anybody who had went against him was executed." Said Shancklehaff

"One day Retanair felt bored for he had too much power so he decided to take 3 quarters of his full power and turn them into the 3 beards! Ye have me RedBeard,The weakest one then you have MaskBeard, the middle one and last but not least Smallbeard, The strongest and shortest out of the 3." Shancklehaff continued

"We all had immense power and our own special traits. I was the tallest and bulkiest out of the 3, NativeBeard had no heart and was also the skinniest out of the 3, and SmallBeard is the only one out of all of us that wields a sword. Retanair's motive was to rule the world so everybody would know his name and we all help him with his goal for if we didn't we would die by his hands."He said

"Its been a few years since we've been created and we haven't done much to honest but we do run into a man named Kohitsuji and his 4 'Horsemen of apocalypse' every so often and we often have little scuffles but nothing too serious"He continued

"The thing is, I don't support Retanair's goals, I don't like killing people, I just want everyone to be happy but I know that can't happen until I die but I don't want to die by Retanair's hands, I don't want to die with shame so please, Please! Do all you can to mske sure that he won't kill me.....please!" Shancklehaff sobbed as a tear ran down his eye

"I promise" Marcus said

"I Also don't like my mother because she wasn't there whenever my Father abused me, She never thought to run away or call the cops, She didn't really cares So I won't care when she dies but I have a question for you." Marcus continued

"What is it?" Shancklehaff asked, Wiping the tear from his eye

"Will you be my Father?" He asked

Shancklehaff started to cry again, He didn't know how to feel. He started to laugh as he put his arm around Marcus and said, "Sure kiddo!" as Shancklehaff was laughing Marcus was laughing and crying tears of joy. Shancklehaff picked up the boy and started carrying him on his back and continued going along the forest walk and then, Cccrunch! It was the sound of leaves crinkling but Shancklehaff wasn't making the sound, Somebody else was.

"RedBeard....." Came from a voice in the distance

Shancklehaff seemed confused, Who was that?

"What are you doing....With my son!?" It said

"Your son? He be mine!" Shancklehaff responded

"He isn't yours! I had this child after you dumped me! Rebecca shouted

"I had a reason to dump ya! I've found myself more reasons for that and they're right..On..My...Back!" Shancklehaff yelled

"Get away from me REBECCA! Don't think I forgot when you killed Fido!" Marcus Screamed

"Fido? The....Golden Retriever?" Shancklehaff asked

"Yeah, why?" Marcus Replied

"I let her have that guy when we got divorced....I know I shouldn't have let her keep it!" Shancklehaff shouted

Shancklehaff's eyes blacked, He clenched his fist as he pulled the biggest frown possible and he started growling

"I had to kill them! The peed on my expensive dress!" She shouted

Shancklehaff didn't wanted none of it. He had punched her right in the gut and sent he flying through the forest walk and he jumped up in the air and did s sideways stomp on her when she was mid-air and he startes to pummel her

almost non stop and after about to 100th punch Rebecca said, "Before I die

I want to say one last thing!"

"Speak! And Make it quick!" He shouted

"I....I thoroughly enjoyed killing Fido!" She weakly said

Shancklehaff didn't say anything as he splattered Rebecca's head

"There...The bad Woman's gone now"
