A Nobody

After seeing Oakley, Gonzo bowed and greeted, “I’m Gonzo Rowling, from the Rowling family of Marsingfill. It is an honor to meet you, Mr. Dixon.”

Oakley nodded his acknowledgment and gestured for Gonzo to take a seat. Then, he asked his visitor, “Mr. Gonzo, why have you traveled so far to the Village of Villains? I do not recall our families ever crossing paths.”

After a moment of silence, Gonzo said, “Mr. Dixon, I’m here to ask you to hand over a person.”

“A person? Who?” Oakley frowned.

“A man by the name of Jared Chance.” Gonzo’s eyes flared with anger as he continued, “He killed my nephew and escaped to the Village of Villains. Mr. Dixon, I hope you can hand the murderer over to me so I may avenge my nephew.”

His explanation deepened Oakley’s frown. I can’t believe Jared really has bad blood with the Rowlings of Marsingfill. He even killed one of their own!

Oakley declared, “I’ve never heard of this person, and he can’t possibly be in the Village of Villains.”

Gonzo’s expression cooled several degrees. He roared, “Someone saw Jared escaping to the Village of Villains, Mr. Dixon. How could you not see him around? Are you seriously thinking of antagonizing the Rowling family for Jared Chance? I must leave this place with him today, dead or alive. If you don’t hand him over, Mr. Dixon, there will be a hefty price to pay.”
