Arackniss

Brothers

Angel's POV

I heard Val's plan to kill Charlie.

I mean, I might've said her ideas were dumb, but I didn't mean it.

My old man was there.

I didn't talk to him.

I didn't even introduce myself.

He's working with the same son of a bitch who always hits me.

Arackniss is dad's favorite.

Arackniss is one of the only two family members I ever talk to.

I bet he hated me.

I bet he still does.

After they ended their meeting, I packed my shit, grabbed Fat Nuggets, and got the hell out of there.

I went to my friend Cherri Bomb's.

She was one of the only friends I had down here.

We were sitting on the couch.

"So," Said Cherri. "What happened?"

"You don't wanna know." I said.

"Did that sack of shit hit you again?" Asked Cherri furiously. "I'm gonna shove a cherry bomb so far up his ass-"

"No it's not that!" I interrupted. "It's much, much worse."

Cherri looked at me with her eye wide open.

"I can't keep a secret, can I?" I asked, knowing the answer.

"No you can't." Said Cherri.

We laughed and Cherri put an arm over my shoulders.

After we calmed down, I sighed.

"Valentino and his friends are going to attempt an assault on Charlie's life." I admitted.

Cherri gasped.

"Princess Charlotte?" She asked. "Heir to the throne? Princess of Hell? People are starting to listen to her ideas? That Charlie?"

I nodded.

"Oh my God." Said Cherri. "We gotta make sure she's safe."

"Don't worry." Said a voice on the corner of the room.

We looked.

Arackniss!?

"How the fuck did you get in here?" Asked Cherri.

"I learned skills, like sneaking in, during World War 2." Said Arackniss.

I got up.

"So," I said. "You're finally seeing me, after a whole lot of fucking years, only to worry about what me and a friend are talking about?"

"Anthony-" He started, but I cut him off.

"It's Angel." I said.
