A irate former ranch owner is in the store

(Some kinda dark threats made by a customer this chapter)

“Don’t lie to me you bitch, they picked up my grandson’s team yesterday!” You hear as you approach the sound of yelling. Entering the customer facing part of the facility, you see an older man yelling at a Ysolda from ‘Skyrim’ who was standing behind the counter. Your friend Larry from resale was standing behind her almost bored. And next to the older man was the former owner of Diana and her team who looked like he would rather be somewhere else while a Rahne from X-Men Evolution hugged his arm. That means that older man was Old Man Hoofer

“And I told you that we don’t have any variation B8 Wonder Woman in stock, if they came here they’re not anymore,” Ysolda explained in her best customer service voice.

“I wasn’t born yesterday, there is no way for anyone to buy her and have her shipped already,” The older man continued to yell, sending spitle in Ysolda’s face. “Bring me that Wonder Woman or I will have you turned into either a septic tank or a new piece to put above my mantle! I could buy you right now!”

“Now sir there is no need for those kinds of threats, please calm down or we will have to ask you to leave.” Larry spoke up and got in front of Ysolda. You were about to walk back to the characters you were bringing in to avoid the conflict knowing that this guy wanted your Diana.

“Hey, it's the guy who picked up the team yesterday,” the younger Hoofer said as he spotted you. Hoofer the Old looked away from where he was arguing with Larry and glowered at you.

“You! Tell me where that Wonder Woman is right now!” He demanded as he went over to you and got in your face.

“First of all, you are way too close. Second of all, your grandkids declared that he hoped we made plenty of glue out them-”

“Everyone knows that’s just talk!”

“Still it's one of the phrases for ‘get rid of them, I want nothing to do with them,’ so you don’t have any claim on them. And-”

“I spent over a million dollars on her customization and mods, making her the perfect wife for Lester. I have a damn claim on her!” Ysolda, a Medios from ‘How NOT to Summon a Demon Lord’ who had been feeding some of the characters on display, and even Hoofer the Younger cried out in shock at the money he spent on customization. You were surprised at the amount but you did your best to recover.

“W-well, Company policy and the law would disagree. And third of all, she is happy where she is,” you finish your statement and glare at him.

“You bought her? You don’t look like you can afford the lint in my pocket,” the old man said in disbelief.

“That’s really not your business,” You say, feeling brave now. “Now I suggest you do as the boss here suggested and leave peacefully.”

“You better not have ruined her you son of a bitch,” Hoofer the Oldest grabbed your shirt in his fist but before a punch (by either you or him) a large hand grabbed his hand and pulled him off you. You look over and you see a Master Chief holding Hoofer the Oldest’s arm in his grip. You never even heard the Master Chief enter the room.

“I believe you were asked to leave sir,” Master Chief marched the man over to the doors.

“This isn’t over assholes!” Hoofer the Older shouted as he was frog marched out with Hoofer the Youngest followed with the Rahne giving everyone an apologetic look.

“Thank you Master Chief,” you say once the giant supersoldier was back inside and you saw the expensive car drive away through the glass front. The SPARTAN barely acknowledged you and walked back into the main part of the facility.

“That was something,” Ysolda said once everything calmed down.

“Yeah, who throws out a character that had over a million in customization done,” you say. “I mean there were accidental pickups before but the younger guy listed Diana out in the pick up form so that wasn’t a mistake.”

“Well, at the very least that’s over,” Larry offered a paper towel to the Ysolda, who wiped the spitle that got on her and the counter.

“Yeah…” you say in a quiet voice as you leave the public section of the facility and head back to the Medical processing section where Bashier and your last set of picked up characters were.
