Chapter 525 - Clean

"...To Ruby!!!!"

"To Ruby!!!!!!"

"To Ruby!!!!!!!!!"

"She has filled our life with meaning."

"Filled our hearts with joy."

"Has changed the way that we think, and....."

"Also changed the way you drink.

Here you go, Boys."

"Thanks, Steffani."

"You know, if….He….shows up... and sees you acting this way in his personal Bar; He'll 'kick you out.'"

"Ahaaaahaaaahaaaa. Don't you worry, Steff. Haven't you heard?

We've reformed.....Ahhhh…..haaa…ahhh…..haaaaaa."

"Besides, Ruby said that she's got us now. We just have to help her settle a score."

"And that score would be?"

"........Wouldn't you like to know?"

"Ruby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You made it, but....."

"Who let you two in? This is an Adults only club, and you two are way too young. I'm gonna have to ask you to kindly leave."

"Awwwww. Meany Steff. Let em stay. Can't you see how happy they are?

Pour em a glass, I say."

"Fine, but they are your responsibilities."

"Thank you.

...….Pop a seat anywhere, ladies, and tell us what brings you?"

"Come to get something stronger in your system besides water?"

"Aahaaahaaahaaaa."

"You like what you see, girl?"

"What?"

"I said....YOU LIKE WHAT YOU SEE?"

"OH...OH YES. Yes.

What's not to love? There's blaring music, live girl dancers, and the best delicacies a person could ever ask for."

"How about you, Ruby? Pole dancer? Show off that body of yours?"

"I did show off, but not dancing.

I was a singer."

"What was that?"

"I said, I was a singer."

"A little louder?"

"A SINGER......…ten times better than all of these Wannabes."

"We all gotta start somewhere."

"Yeah, start...….not end."

"Ruby, I didn't know you were a singer. Have you ever sung with Jalapeno?"

"Just cause we are Singers, we are expected to know each other?"

"Just a thought."

"So why are you here, and not dashing around with Kids your own age?"

"Rainbow needs a sword, cause her Candycanes keep breaking."

"Candycanes? Haaaaa.

Aren't you a Princess? Can't you just buy her one, or at the very least have many in stock."

"She doesn't want something whipped up in the basement. She wants the real authentic Mackoy."

"What makes you think we have one?"

"Not one...Two.

I've seen one of your Warehouses, remember. You have everything. Things even I shouldn't be able to buy, nor know I could.

What don't you have?"

"Woman."

*Punch*

"Ouch….I was being honest. Her with us, so why not us with her?"

"Because honesty relies off of Trust, and Trust...…is give and take.

We know you, so we know from your experience that your trust is genuine...…true.....and honest, but just like you can't seek forgiveness for others...you also can't seek aid.

What have it, Rainbow?"

"Huh?"

"He means what are you willing to give in order to trade for your swords?"

"I...…."

"I could try the crown out for you."

"I don't think my sister is going anywhere anytime soon. You'll have to fight her for it, and once she gets what she wants; she never lets go. I tried. Just ended up ripping our teddy bear in half."

"I'm so sorry to hear that. We're like family here and don't intend on ripping anybody apart for gain."

"Well. What would you like?"

".......I would like you...............and you, and you, and you, and you to leave my Club at once. I told you what would happen if you showed your faces here again."

"Steffani!!!!"

"I....he.....sorry."

"Job security, it's ok. We understand?"

"We do, Ruby?"

"Uppp, uppp, uppp, upppp, uppp. You know your place."

"I know....myyyy place. But what if I wanted to expand."

"Theo, maybe you should just quiet down."
