Chapter 9: No ReMorse Code

       Days turned in to weeks, but no one dared to go looking for them. Everyone feared the worst had happened. Mask made a memorial for Bobble in the cemetery near his parents, just assuming that she was dead. Emperor, Aloha, and Skull did not give up. Something deep within them, knew there was a possibility that they were all alive. Emperor knew that if he didn't try to save his brother, no justice would be served and no peace would come to his mind. Skull just felt that if Army had killed himself and his body was stolen to be reanimated, he would want Army to be laid to rest. Moona approached the three boy with a photo of Desi clenched in her angered fist. Her only motive for taking a stand with them, revenge. Anger had bubbled and brewed with in her, mixed with sorrow, a hint of fear, poured into a bowl of depression, and served cold and hateful. She wanted blood, sanitized blood. Knowing how dangerous it would be for her if they denied, they let her join them on the quest.

They packed up their gear and tools, medical supplies and emergency kits. They loaded all the equipment in the back of Army's jeep. Whilst loading, Emperor was shoved to the ground by an inkling with a bowl haircut and an ego stricken scowling smirk.
"HEY!!!" Emperor shouted, "HOW DARE YOU SHOVE THE KING!!!"
"tch, you're definitely no king of mine... and yeah I do dare shove a peasant," the inkling retorted coldly.
"UH!! YOU HAVE SOME NERVE!!!" Emperor growled.
Skull saw the two arguing and recognized the inkling, "Vintage......"
"Skull..." Vintage hissed, "taking out the garbage I see. This house was an eyesore anyways. So glad the owner had abandoned it."

"The owner of this 'eyesore' is my friend and you do not talk bad about him...." Skull replied.

"Oh right, Army is dead," Vintage smiled evilly, "How rude of me to be disrespectful to an inkling who always had a stick up his ass!"
"EXCUSE ME!!!" Aloha shouted.
"Oh you heard me Party Animal!" Vintage looked at Emperor, "Going to save your weak pathetic excuse of an heir I presume."
"YOU PRESUME CORRECTLY EXCEPT FOR HOW YOU DESCRIBED HIM!!!" Emperor sneered.
"Humph, whatever," He looks at Moona, "What are you crying about? Boyfriend die or something. You are all TRASH!"
Skull growled and, out of nowhere, shoved Vintage to the wall of the house.
"Listen, Skull... I know we were friends but I'm not into you," Vintage remarked.
Skull growled, "DON'T YOU DARE JOKE AROUND YOU MOTHER-"

"Whoa Skull, language, Cod!" Vintage grumbled.
"LISTEN TO ME AND LISTEN TO ME WELL!!! MY FRIENDS ARE IN DANGER AND IF WE DON'T SAVE THEM, THEY WILL DIE, PEOPLE WILL DIE!!" Skull snapped.
"You think I'd CARE if they die..." Vintage said coldly. "You don't know me, I've changed!"

"I know you have, but if you don't help us, your X rank will be worth nothing...." Skull said sadly.

Vintage growled, "What other choice do I have... BUT TO WATCH YOU BURN!!!!"
