Between The Wicked

Chapter 31: Big Brother Of The Sea

Hayden's POV

I walk through the old wooden doors of the fish and chip shop. "I'm back." I say in a in singing voice. I am surprised to see that the place is packed, some of Uma's old gang still hanging around the long table picking at the food as it comes from the back kitchen. I sigh happily swinging my legs over the table and turn on the TV, "Where have you been?" Asks Gil with a mouth full of eggs, "That is need to know, and you aren't important enough to know." I flick Gil in the head pulling the tray of food from him to me. "Is Harry important enough to know?" Gil smirks at me, and I just sneer at him. "Harry Hook is not my concern, he is his own man, and can do whatever he wants to do." I take a bit of my food as I finish my statement. "I thought you and he had a thing going on?" I start laughing almost choking on my food. "That sea baring pirate and I are nowhere close to having a thing, unless you count a few hook ups from time to time, but those are just for stress relief." Gil looks at me dumbfounded, "You never hooked up with me." This comment from Gil makes spit out my food. "The reason we have never hooked up is because I need a man, and don't take this the wrong way Gil but your brothers are manlier then you." Gil slams his fist down on the table. "I am the son of Gaston, and that makes me more manly then most here on the Isle, and for your information my legacy is built on being manly." I just roll my eyes and go back to my food as Gil rambles on about his family. "WELL MAYBE NEXT TIME YOU WILL ORDER THE RIGHT THING, AND NOT TRY TO GET A FREE MEAL!" Yells am unfamiliar voice that catches my attention, and I look to see the yelling is coming from a guy. He has long white hair that covers his right eye but I still see that he has grey eyes, and he has purple shell studded earrings in his ears. "Who is that?" I ask Gil who turns to see who I am looking at. The guy turns towards us, he is wearing a stained white short sleeved shirt, a black cord necklace around his neck, a ragged old apron around his waist, black jeans, and purple sneakers on his feet. "You mean Ura?" I look at Gil with confusion. "I guess, if that his name." Gil nods his head putting another egg in his mouth. "His name is Ura, he is Ursula's son, and Uma's older brother." Gil says swallowing the egg as speaks, "I was not aware Ursula has a son or that Uma had an older brother." Gill inclines his head pushing the empty tray away. "The reason no one saw him before is because he was basically Ursula's slave, and was not allowed to leave the house." I nod my head kind of understanding where Ura was coming from. "But now Ura has taken over management of the chip shop." I smile then notice that I haven't heard the annoying voice of Uma since I got back to the Isle, not that I was complaining. "Where's Uma?" And the second those words leave my mouth I hear the sound of someone walk in and Gil points toward the double doors, and as I turn my attention to the direction he is pointing I see that Uma has just walked in, and her eyes lock on to me. "Look who is alive after all, I guess you learned to swim." I fake laugh at her before staring daggers at her. "Or maybe you aren't as good at killing people as you think you are." Uma smirks at me as she pushes her hair to one side. "You are lucky I am in a good mood, otherwise you would be fish food by now." I roll my eyes with an annoying look on my face. "As so happens I have a job for you to do Heidi, I need you to go down to Curl up and Dye and get our daily profit." I look at Uma really oddly. "What are you talking about Uma, Dizzy is in Auradon, I mean she got invited personally by King bore me to death himself." Uma runs her hand along her necklace. "I guess that there are two new people working there, and they need to know the rules of having a business in my territory." This catches my attention for the most part because the only Tremaine's that I know of is Dizzy and Anthony. "Who is running the shop now?" Uma snarls at me. "I don't know and I don't care, just go there and explain the rules, and don't forget to collect the money." Uma barks at me as she goes into the back and into the kitchen. "Sounds like you are going on your first solo mission." Gil smiles at me and I just nod my head. "I guess you're right Gil, and now that I think about it, where is Hook?" Gil shrugs his shoulders. "He was in her earlier, but he said something came up and that he needed to go." I shake my head of the thoughts of worrying about him because those are Heidi's thoughts not mine, and I cannot afford to have Heidi pop out ruining everything that I have planned. "You should get going, Uma is already in a bad mood, and if you aren't gone by the time she comes back there is going to be trouble." I pat Gil on cheek staring into his eyes, "I am not scared of that squid, and to be honest I think that little Uma has more to fear from me then I have to fear from her." I hop over the table walking out of the shop and start heading towards the run down salon.
