"What The Heck is going on!?" Den Shouted.
~3 hours earlier
Den tried a spoonful of the fish stew and writhed In pleasure. " Oh my gosh Eleanor, I could eat a hundred bowls of this stuff and not get sick of it!" Den Yelled. "I'm so glad you like it!" Eleanor said. "Ive ever asked you what brings you to this Floating city." Kofi said to Den. Den let his guard down, due to the Excellent food he was consuming. "I'm here to find a team to help me kill the man who murdered my family." Den said, immediately regretted it. However no one so much as flinched
"A dreams a dream That's what every Pirate believes" Kofi said. A rancid Smell wafted into Dens nose, he shuttered, as Throdrok approached him, putting her breasts right upon his head, "Something bothering you, runt?!" She whispered aggressively. She sat on Dens lap, burying his face in her chest "Something smell wrong to you?" Throwdrok asked, Her smell was almost unbearable, Den choked, wondering she would get off of him. She was a lot heavier then she looked. "THATS ENOUGH!" Meressa Screamed.
Throdrok got off of Den, sitting on the same seat as him "So" She said, staring at Den "Is it true true your going to kill someone?" Throdrok whispered " I already have killed someone," Den whispered back, hoping to scare her off. "So Has everyone else in this stupid family, I'm not even related to them You know" Throdrok said quietly. "I can tell that much" Den said aloud "What the hell is that supposed to mean!?" Throdrok yelled. Everyone was staring at them, They had gotten so close that their noses were touching. "Is this one of those Things were we yell at each other, then kiss furiously? Den asked, blushing. Before Throdrok could answer Jaguar said something.
"How about a good old fashioned eating contest, Den? Earlier you said that you could eat 100 bowls of my mothers stew, so lets test that! If you can eat 100 bowls of stew faster before I can, you can have my left arm." Jaguar said, excitingly. Den frowned and the entire family, except for Throdrok started giggling. "But if I win, I get to fight you, and if I win, I will be the only being in this entire pirates clan who gets to be on your team." Jaguar concluded Den reluctantly accepted, finally getting a chance to test his strength, one way or another.
They smiled at each other. "Fire up the stove mom, I like my stew HOT" Jaguar said. Eleanor didn't budge an inch, giving Jaguar an icy stare. Kofi lightly punched Jaguar in the face, "...Please" Jaguar said, realizing his lack of respect. "Hey if you lose, you have to go on a date with me." Throdrok whispered to Den. Now Den was motivated to win ath any cost. The Battle started off pretty well for Him, he played fast and loose, eating bowl after bowl, while the entire family shook their heads in disapproval reached 30 bowls in an hour while Jaguar was on his 10th. Den drifted asleep for an hour, leaving Jaguar to eat 50 bowls while he was out.
Den woke up and caught up to Jaguar, while he did nothing, just sitting there for another two hours eventually Den was on his 99th bowl, struggling to stay awake. And suddenly out of nowhere, in a blur of movement Jaguar ate 49 bowls of stew, slowly eating the last one. "How-" Den Asked, falling asleep.
