When things are getting stiff, suddenly the alarm blared.
"The hell?" I opened the monitoring tab, in front of the mansion's gate is a gigantic crowd of people, almost a thousand of them, and looks like they are trying to open the gate forcefully. "Wha-what happened?" Kasumi asked, shocked. "You two stay indoors." I ordered. "And" I approached the two before giving a kiss at each of their forehead, I am a fair man, you are welcome. "Stop arguing alright?" With that I dashed out of the dining room and down the hallway. Kasumi and Yui blushed, touching their forehead, they could still feel the wet sensation on it…
"We wanted the man!" The minute I exited the front door, I could hear a man chanted, his followers followed. "Bring him to us! Bring him to us!" "Sorry, but you needed to respect the owner's privacy. Wait, wait what are you doing!" The guard tried to calm the crowd down, but instead the gate suddenly burst open. By a force so strong that the heavy metal gate literally burst open and flung towards me. I stretch out my arms, catching the incoming projectiles, before tossing it aside.
With the metal gate down, the crowd started to flood into the mansion compound. All of them are gangsters, thugs, with fierce face, muscular body and scars. And in the middle of them, is a gigantic man, with a bald head, wearing a floral Hawaii shorts and button up shirt with a cool looking shades. He is almost three meters tall, with a physique of a walking muscle cell. Every single shed of his skin pure muscle, no fat or whatever, creating the face of an Oni. Through his shirt, I could see a dragon tattoo circling from his waist into his neck. His eyes were filled with the will and hatred people like this normally had, fierce like a beast, ready to pounce.
"You" He pointed at me with one hand while with other he took down his shades, revealing a scar across one of his eyes. "You are Zeo right?" "Yes" I nodded. "The one that destroyed the Headquarter E?" He asked out again, so he is here for revenge? "Yes." I raised my fist. "Yes, I am." His muscle contracts upon hearing my response, I could see steam evaporating out of his body, his expression twitched before opening his mouth and shouted:
"CAPTAIN ZEO~!!"
"Captain Zeo!!!!" The rest of his followers followed his scream, he kneeled down to the ground with a thud, and so do them. "Eh?" I stare at the current situation, awkward and shocked. "What the fuck?" "You forget me, captain?" The man scooted towards me with his knees, his expression changed. From a killer demon, into a fucking sailor moon Kawai face. "I am Dan, Dan strong, you remember, Iron Fist Dan?" "Dan?" I stare at him for a moment, his face and the face in my mind lapped, before I gasped. "Dan! Is that really you?!"
"You had a great girlfriend there! These foods are great!" Dan sat beside the dining table, gobbling down the food Yui had prepared for me. Plate after plate, scoop after scoop, big man had big needs, right? Great thing to me though, I would have diabetes if I finish all of them. "Thank you." Yui smiled, not because he praised her skills, probably because he called her as my girlfriend. "Why are you here?" I stare at him, shocking to see his sudden appearance. Upon hearing my question, he stop munching, and stare at me, I don't like these looks. He let out a whimper, before crying out loud.
"It is all my fault captain!" He bawled like a kid, slamming the table in regret with his fist. his attitude is still the same. The face of a demon, the soul of a pure girl. "I had been searching for you forever!" His followers nodded beside him, proving his statement. "Ever since we were split apart, I had been trying my every way to look for you, yet it is very hard! For ten years! I thought you disappeared! Or even worse, dead! But after getting the news yesterday, I am overjoyed!" He dashed towards me and hold my hands, looking at me, with those fucking sincere eyes.
"Finally, I've finally found you, captain." He sniffed, rubbing his snot and tears away. Someone his followers were so touched by this emotional scene that even they started to cry alongside him. "From today!" Dan grab my hand and raise it as he shouted at his fellow followers. "From today! Zeo! Is my boss!" He declared before even asking me for fucking permission. "And my boss, is your boss too!" He screamed on top of his lungs. "Yes boss!!" His men scream back, before all let out a deep bow towards me.
"Boss Zeo! We will be loyal to you forever!"
Eh?
"I couldn't express my feelings right now, captain." He slapped me by the back, almost snapping my spine like a celery stick. "Come, lets head to a bar I know at City S for a drink." By force, he grabbed me by the shoulder and dragged me out. "But, Dan, your men…" I turn my head towards him and asked, I afraid they will do something towards my girls, I mean the girls "You! Men!" He turned around and roared at them. "Keep the boss's house and his girlfriends safe alright!?" "Yes boss!" His followers replied gladly, before exiting the dining room, scattering throughout the entire mansion's compound, taking their position in every single area like bodyguards.
"See, they are safe!" He grabbed me by the shoulder and squeezed, smiling. No, he completely misses the goddamn point "Yeah, thanks." The squeeze squeezed out a bitter smile from my face. "Let's had a shot, my treat." With that the two of us headed towards the city W in his limo. Leaving the girls who are equally as dumbfounded as I am.
"Who is that man?" Kasumi asked. "He called Zeo "Captain", a former working friend I guess?" Yui answered. "What a weird man." Mei added. But in the end, the three are still hella confused, just like me, confused as fuck.
