Wee Weasel Tales: Hell Hath No Fury

Intros and Innocence

This is the nineteenth chapter of the fourth Willimeena installment: 'Hell Hath No Fury'!

Returning to the van with Arabia, Jerry makes his crew introduce themselves to her ... as her 'new, adopted family'. Some are more enthusiastic than others.

Dr Fine tries to enlist Arabia in her endeavours to escape, but gets a truly startling answer! I hope that you guys like it! 👍

Outside the orphanage, Hayesville, 5 mins later ...

Getting back through the orphanage had been surprisingly easy ... considering the multitude of occupants, but Jerry and the others managed it!

Arabia, for her part, had been thankfully ... snuggled contentedly in her dad's arms.

Jerry Willis had carried his little daughter all the way back, unwilling to let go of her ... even for a second!

Behind the duo's backs, Sara, Arty, and Cammy all exchanged wry glances ... amused by their boss's newly-revealed 'softer' side.

"We'll need to take a little trip to our new home, but don't worry, Bia!" Jerry said soothingly, as the group left quietly through the back door.

"It won't be too long."

Looking furtively to left and right, the serial killer chief and his team snuck back to their parked van ... and opened the back doors.

"We're back!"

The remainder of Jerry's crew in the van immediately turned their heads; bored looks changing into relieved smiles.

Dr Fine, on the other hand ... was pale-faced and trembling; with one eye on Jerry, and one eye on the many knives at her throat.

"Oh, hi, boss! I see you got your kid back!" Ozzie said, smiling nervously ... while casually putting his knife away.

The other crewmates hurriedly did the same, at a meaningful look from Jerry Willis.

Arabia looked up at her dad, and then at the new strangers with a wary but VERY curious look on her face.

Seeing this, the serial killer chief decided to satisfy his daughter's curiosity.

"Arabia, these people are more of our newfound friends", Jerry explained, gesturing to the crew members inside the van.

"Newfound family, like I said back there in the orphanage." He then addressed his crew, with a bit of a stern look.

"Guys ... say hello to Arabia here, my darling angel."

None of said compatriots dared to do otherwise, so they all politely greeted the little girl ... some warmer than others.

"Hello there!" Sara said, smiling.

"Hi", Ozzie mumbled awkwardly.

"Hey there, kid", Gus said, in a friendly manner.

"Nice to meet ya", Karl spoke cordially.

"Um ... good day?" Arty grunted, raising an eyebrow down at the child.

"Hiya!" Cammy said, just happy to meet someone new.

And as for Tito ...

"Hola, little one", the turtle-lover said heartily, smiling across at Arabia. "My name is Alberto ... but you can call me 'Tito' for short."

A little smile appeared on the aforementioned girl's face, as Tito winked reassuringly at her.

"Tito?" she asked, receiving a nod from said man. "Yes, that's right! It's a real honour to meet you, Arabia!" he said, and then nodded across at Jerry.
