Word Girl and the 7 Deadly sins

Chapter 9: Pride part 2

Thank you to anyone reading at this point. I love you guys. Did anyone get the reference to his name? I will let you know why I chose the name Benedict Astruc at the end of the chapter. I dont know if I mentioned it in

previous chapters but I chose Astruc because that is the name of the creator of Miraculous Ladybug which I am also writing a fanfic for. Sorry it took so long for me to update I will go more into detail about that at the end

of the chapter. Enough rambling, let's get on with the chapter.

********************************************************************************************************************************************************************

After the given time, Jackie, Becky and friends arrived at the given address. They found it a bit weird that Jackie's cousins just gave them their addresses so effortlessly but whatever.

Jackie nervously walked up to the two story blue house and rang the doorbell. He had a nice little garden growing in the front and she wondered what it was like in the back. The door opened after a minute.

There to greet them was her cousin who's hair was still dripping wet presumably from his shower. He was still drying his hair off with a towel.

"Come on in." As soon as they walked in they were sniffed by a large black dog and two smaller dogs. They were all well groomed dogs.

Becky, Bob and Tobey sat on one couch and Sam, Jackie and Benedict sat on the other one. No one said or did anything for a while until Becky leaned forward to pet the big black dog who in turn sniffed her and started

licking her hand. Becky pulled her hand away a bit startled and then the dog barked at her a couple of times.

"Bartholomew, bad dog." Benedict told the dog whose ears drooped and he immediately started whining. "We do not bark at people." Bartholomew walked out of the room and into the kitchen. The smaller dogs followed

him.

"Do you always call him by his full name?" Jackie asked Benedict, with her eyebrow raised in confusion.

"Only when he's in trouble. I normally just call him Bart. Anyway, we are not here to discuss my dogs. We are here to discuss how we are related." He said, waving his hand back and forth between him and Jackie.

Jackie sighed and quickly transformed in front of him. His eyes widened. "You're envy?"

A little while later.....

After filling him in on pretty much every detail of her life that we all know so far, it was his turn to transform. With a snap of his fingers, he was wearing a violet colored suit that looked finely tailored with a violet luchador

looking mask.

"And we took down Doctor Two Brains by working together and destroying his latest version of a ray that turns things into cheese related products." She finished her story with wild hand exaggerations and enthusiasm.

"If you haven't already guessed it I'm Pride. I am also the head of this family." He sighed before continuing. "To my understanding, you are dating a fellow super hero."

"Yes? What of me dating this fellow super?" Jackie asked, feeling confused and a little weirded out because she thought the question was a bit too intrusive. Not even Sam or her dad would ask her those type of questions.

He sighed before clasping his hands together. "This isn't my place to be saying anything but I feel like you should break up with him." He told her as serious as possible.
