Charlus woke up early in the morning but he stayed home. He waited until lunch time to start towards his destination. He was going to the Black Rose Pub.

After this, Charlus was thinking about a rest from farming. He felt irritated and no longer felt as excited as he did when he first got into the Game.

Charlus got onto his scooter and drove to the Black Rose Pub. When he got there, he saw that the pub had a lot more activity. There was a huge stare down outside the pub.

”What are you doing here Van?”

The person who was speaking was the lady who was on the Harley Davidson directly in front of the Black Rose Pub.

”Oh. Just came around after hearing rumors that your entire pub got trashed by a single high schooler. Thought you would throw the towel by now after that.”

The lady became angry.

”Were you the one who sent the person?”

Van laughed.

”Yeah! One of my guys took down your entire crew! How do you even have the face to stay here at Lewisville?”

Charlus picked the wrong time to goo forward.

”Excuse me? Could I ask what's happening? Maybe I could help?”

”What do you want boy? You want to join the Black Rose? That's no longer the craze. The Scorpions have 300 members now. You could have a future there. Maybe a dishwasher? Do you guys have any spot open? See this Pearl? Your prospective crew member is some guy who probably can't even walk a mile!”

The entire Scorpion crew started laughing. Pearl wanted to hang the high schooler who came forth. Suddenly, one of her subordinates came forward and whispered in her ear. Pearl's expression became more relaxed.

”So Van. You said that the high schooler was one of yours. Where is he? Can't see him now.”

Van became flustered.

”I sent him away. We don't need him to go against people like you. Any one of us can take you on.”

Pearl laughed. ”Really?”

Charlus interjected.

”Could you make this quick? I have stuff to do.”

Van became angry at Charlus.

”Shut up boy. Just because I'm showing pity on you because you are young and stupid doesn't mean you can run your mouth near me. Another word and I'll cut your tongue.”

Charlus looked at Van's status.
