2Ten Blocks From Sanity
I stared at them, and began wondering who I should take on first. The orange team or the purple team. hmm... the choices in life are so difficult. So I decided we'd talk, delay it a bit, and then kick some bad- guy butt! But on the off hand, all they were doing were eye-contact- battles.
Finally, the 'gang leaders' stepped forward and the rest of the gang stood defiantly beside them, ready for any action.
Gang Purple's Leader broke the silence, finally, by yelling:
"YOU OWE US MONEY!" He was a tall man, probably 5'9, very muscular and bruised, had short black hair, and dark .. Brown eyes? I can't see from here, so give me a break, you know?
"No, we paid! You f**ken morons!" And that's when the first punch was thrown from the Leader of Gang Purple. Gang Orange's leader was hit square in the jaw, and flew up and down. And that's when they all charged forward and began their head on battle, completely forgetting about me. How rude!
I suppose I could have walked into the center and told them to break it up, but quite honestly I wanted some action! So I grabbed the nearest person, swung the surprised body around and punched them on the chin sending them upwards. It felt so good!
I felt someone kick me in the side, but I didn't see who or what foot or even when. All I know is how my side now hurt, and the jolt that went flying through my body.
~Out Of Her P.O.V (point of view) ~
Zeta was strewn across the alley way, and knocked into the wall of a near by building, but quickly shot back up. Blood was now covering the floors, the walls, the people, and the number of people had dwindled down.
Zeta raced up to the nearest person, jumped on his back and covered his eyes. He began jumping around reaching around to get her, but she was out of his reach. Finally she let go, jumped back and the minute he turned around she raced up and high kicked his face. Blood splurged out of his mouth as he was sent down to the ground. That's when another person raced up and got her right in the face.
She q1ickly recovered from the blow, and got up to do her revenge on the guy. Kicks were thrown, punches, even head-butts. Zeta dodged some moves, but got hit quite a lot... Many of the gang's members were bleeding, and several had left.
She kicked a guy right in the d*ck, making him grip it and fall back in a cringing motion. She smiled and the minute his head went down she threw up her leg kicking him right in the center of his face, making him land on his caboose. She then twirled around kicking a guy in the side. Another man tried to punch her, but she bent down missing it, then using her leg swung it around and tripped the man.
She was severely bleeding when the police sirens were heard.
~Back To Zeta~
S*it! I had to get out of here. Making sure that the gang members were surely on the ground and would stay there, I began my escape. I raced out of the alleyway and took a left. I was running and running, but I couldn't see anything. My head was getting dizzy, and there was blood everywhere. My side hurt, my legs hurt, and right beside my right eye was a punch mark.
My whole body was stinging with pain when I found a Public Bathroom and raced into the stalls. I didn't make it to washing my face or anything, because I had fainted.
~~Dream~~
I was at that cliff again, just standing and looking out at the water below. I felt his presence again, Jason's, and again my mouth began flapping. I didn't know what I was saying, because I couldn't hear it or make it out, but I saw Jason walk up again, and again he was crying.
He pointed out at the water, and his mouth began moving too, and that's when I started crying. He turned to me, smiling, and out mouths moved again and again and again. And the last and only thing I could hear was from myself:
"Your scared."
~~End Of Dream~~
I woke up with a soaring head ache, and I was lying on a messy floor. That's when I remembered all the gang fights and all that. Ducking under the stall, I made sure no one else was there before walking out and washing myself. Now, I know what your thinking, androids cant bleed. And your right, they cant. But then you must remember I'm a bio-android, made to be as close to human as possible. Its not really real blood, but the pain was real. Believe me, as real as anything else.
I walked up to a sink and began to wash my body, and it felt nice to get rid of the dry blood. It took a bit, but I got it all down. After finishing up with all that I looked at my watch. S*it, it was 10:16 P.M. I decided I better head home as I've been gone all day laying on the floor of the stall in a public bathroom.
Walking out I thought about the gang fight. I really hope those people went to jail or something horrible like that.
~At Zetas Home~
I walked inside, to find Ray going through his G.O.A on the couch. I rolled my eyes and plopped myself down next to him. He didn't even look up!
"Hey! What are you doing?" I asked, leaning over to look at his G.O.A, blocking his view. I knew he was irritated, that was the whole plan! *smiles evilly*
"Move, Zeta. I'm not in the mood." I looked up at him, surprised.
"Awe! Ray is so grumpy!" And that's where I made my mistake.
"Where the f*ck did you get those cuts!?" He looked alarmed, and I jumped back when he yelled at me. For a cover up I looked at my watch, which read 11:01, oh thank God!
"OH MY GOSH! Look! I have to go!" And I raced out. Stupid Ray would get all mad if I told him I was fighting. I saw him begin to talk but was out before he could even start. I had to, after all, save that persons life!
I was way to early when I arrived. It was only 11:31. I just had to stand around, going home would be a no because then I'd arrive very lately. I could faintly hear 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' playing on the inside. I love Nirvana.
Every time the doors open the music would blare up, and then faintly go quieter as the door swung close again. I would go inside, but I'm not much of a partier. Plus, its no fun when you go to a party without your friends or something, and I doubt Mari or Ray would go, but I'm pretty sure maybe Jason would.
Minutes passed, along with many people, but nothing exciting happened, well yet. I knew this was the right club, because there's only one 'Club Love' in town. I didn't know which side the gang members would gang up on (he he) the person, but I did know it would be soon.
I would have fallen asleep if it wasn't for the fact that I was on a job. I seriously could feel my eyelids just dropping. Not that I cant stay up till midnight, just that its twenty times harder trying to stay up and staring at nothingness. ..
People could come out as drunk as h***, and stagger about for some entertainment, but no. Life just had to be unfair. Or maybe it is just I that is unfair towards it? *sigh* that was stupid, its way to late.
Finally, I saw a bunch of drunk guys, a gang, walk out. I could smell the beer from here, and I hated it. They staggered, laughed, and began heading to the small alley way between the 'Club Love' and another club that I didn't care about. I was really hoping these were the people I was supposed to beat up. and that's when I saw him.
"MICHAEL!" I said alarmed. S*it, ok at times like these we shouldn't panic. But honestly, come on! Me? Panic? No.. what's he DOING HERE!? HE SHOULDN'T BE HERE! GET AWAY! ARG! THIS ISNT RIGHT! IF THEY- OOO- SO MUCH AS TOUCH HIM!
I don't know how it happened, but I was down there in a flash. I couldn't just go and stand beside Michael, because I had to make sure *he* was the one they are planning on killing/hurting. I was on Club Love's roof, watching as the gang neared the frightened boy. Was he caring a crate? What's inside I wonder. The closer they came, the closer I came to pounding their faces in. But sense I'm nice and won't do so until they touch Michael, I'll just sit and watch. Like I've been doing for awhile now. They all stopped, a foot before Michael. The supposed 'leader' was in front of Michael, whose legs were shaking. I wanted to hit him so hard for scaring my little Michael! OK, so in a day you can become pretty attached to younger things ..
"Do you have it?" Ok, is it just me or does this seem like a gang movie now? The boy says yes, they do a trade, and the boy ends up with the bomb. Oh! That better not happen.
"Yeah.. Yeah I-i have it." He was stuttering. He was showing his fear. I'm going to have to go down there and kick a**. Oh, yeah baby! Stretch those muscles!
"Is it all in the crate? Karl, take the crate over there. You and Davidson count it." Last names? Is that how they go? I saw a girl in the back. A familiar looking girl, with short black hair. She, like myself, had two bangs in front. Hers are shorter, though, and they are died blonde. I couldn't see her eyes, because she had sunglasses on. Who wears sunglasses at night? I mean, that's like walking around blind. She was about my height, maybe a bit taller. She didn't look so old, but then again we all look like babies! *pinches your cheek*
The supposed Karl and Davidson took the large crate thing that Michael had been holding, and had walked over to open it with a crow bar. When it was fully open, I saw fish? What the hell? Ok. so they want fish. that's- oooh! They took the fish out and below it was sealed up money. Little thieves stealing from my Michael! GRR! I'll get you bad boys, believe me. But only if you hurt Michael ..
"Is it all there?" The 'leader' asked in a rough voice that seemed more like a growl. All, except the girl, had large muscles, and were high. I could tell she wasn't, though, because she wasn't leaning over and laughing slightly while squinting. "Karl" nodded, looking through it, while "Davidson" lugged it up and took his place in . line. The girl now stepped forward, taking off her glasses. Some of her black stringy hair fluttered forward, and she smiled bending down to Michaels level. HES MINE B*TCH LAY OFF! ..)
"That was gay. Come down and fight you b*tch!" The girl said, looking nothing at all remotely to anger. She just looked the way she looked when she was talking to Michael, evilly happy. I, being a nice person, obliged to her commands and flipped down, landing perfectly on my feet. Please hold your applauds until all men are down for the count.
"That wasn't to nice." I saw her smirk. Arg. B*tch. Let me at her ooo.
"Michael, go stand over there. I'll handle this." I pointed over to a corner, and turned back to them. I wasn't wearing a jacket, so I couldn't take one off and through it so all I got to do that was cool was wait. Oh yeah, go me.
"Oh, you're protecting him. How sweet." The girl said. I counted their heads, and came out with 7. Including the 'leader', the 'girl', Karl and Davidson. This is going to be one sweet battle. Karl was the first to come up.
"Fine, bring it Karl." I decided when I got home I'd look these people up. And that's when it all broke loose. Karl swung his arm for a punch, I ducked down and used my legs to trip him. While he was falling I put my hands behind my shoulders, kicked up off the ground and got him in the face. And all in the process went all the way back and landed on my feet. Davidson ran up behind me, and kicked me in the side. I flew to the side, landing but flipping back up. I dodged another punch from Karl punched him in the stomach, turned over kicked Davidson, back kicked the leader, got hit on the head.
I was a bit dizzy, but they were drunk. Karl was already out, and Davidson I think was seeing stars. So 5 left. The leader came after me next. Left punch, right dodge, kick down jump up. I did a high kick but missed him so I threw a punch and got him square in the nose sending him flying back into the wall. He was down. Twirling around with my leg in the air I got another member. Was punched in the stomach, and God did it hurt, but I refused to give up and punched him back. We threw a few more punches, did some more dodging, and then he was down, and I was going after him quickly. 3 left.
The girl wouldn't fight, and stood on the side lines, so I took on another guy who nearly knocked me out if it wasn't for the lucky save of me dodging the other guys punch and having him hit the guy that almost knocked me out, sending HIM out instead. So now it was just me and this guy, minus the girl of course.
I was staggering, I was bleeding, I was in pain but so was he from a few hits from me. I had some advantage since he was drunk, but I hope that was enough. I threw a punch, and another and he got me sending me flying back. I landed on my back, flipped over onto my stomach, and then back onto my back where I began skidding. And that's when I remembered it. I hated using it, but in emergencies I would An emergencies I'd do anything. I transformed to full android. It's a hard process, and hurts me a lot, along with consuming most of my energy. But for a mere 13 to 15 minutes I have amazing powers. Though, I became fairly odd looking and I have no emotions until it wears off which is fairly great. I charged at him, and hit him square in the stomach. Everything seemed to go slow as he flow up, his eyes widening in surprising and blood spluttering out of his mouth. Then *bam* he was on the ground and I had finished them all off. I turned towards the girl, who was just smiling.
I didn't have any emotions towards her, not hatred or loving, all I knew is that I had to destroy her. She smiled and walked up closer to where her mouth reached my ear. I don't know why I didn't act, I just didn't.
"See you, Zeta... Smith." I know, even in my android form, that triggered something. Something inside me was screaming "YOU KNOW HER YOU KNOW HER!" but I don't know what happened next. I lost it all, the gang members were waking up and I had to take Michael away. The "girl" was gone.
The next thing I knew was I was lying down in something soft and cool, a breeze and the soft noise of water falling into a pond of water, like a waterfall. My eyes blinked open, and I could feel someone dabbing something on my mouth. I looked over and saw Michael holding a wet cloth. He smiled when he saw me staring, and looking beyond I saw where we were. At the docks. Did Michael carry me? No. I carried him and I guess I fainted.
I was in his room? It had a sheet? I think so, it had a sheet tied to two posts, then another sheet just two inches below it tied to the same posts, and a pillow/blanket on the top sheet. I'm guessing that's his bed. There were a few toys, and that was pretty much it. I was laying on a cushioned floor on his balcony thing, that was more like just the docks. It floated above the water. So if I was to jump OFF the balcony I would land in water. I heard nothing but the soft noises of the water hitting the docks and landing again in their place. This is really soothing. After re-looking around his room I saw the crate, filled with money. Had I taken that also? Michael could use it ..
It was light out, probably 8 A.M or so. I wonder if Ray is scared or just happy? Probably happy. I tried to sit up, but a large pain shot through my chest and I laid down again.
"Bwoken wibs?" Michael asked in his sing-song calm voice and I smiled.
"Who knows. don't even know if I have ribs." He knows now, that I'm just not normal. Maybe he doesn't know I'm an android, maybe he wouldn't care. We could run away ^-^ *snicker*.
"Why were you there Michael?" I know I could just ask Mari, she'd know. She knows all, but I want Michael to tell me.
"Father owed them money, but was to busy to go-" Michael began.
"So he sent you?" I finished, and Michael nodded. Ok, something seriously wrong with that. I got up, ignored the pain, and tried to stretch. My neck popped, but I couldn't move anything else without hurting myself. Ray would fix me up, I know he would. Maybe in a few days the pain will go away and I'd be fine again. Maybe because I'm an android we can just, you know, fix it ..
"Michael, you shouldn't have gone. That's illegal and you should send your parents to jail!" I said, trying to be as calm as I could. Michael nodded and hugged me.
"DON'T LEAVE ME ZETA!"..-.-.
"Wouldn't dream of it, Michael, wouldn't dream of it"
Sweet Choco: stupid ending. Was going to just keep going and going and going and going but I had to stop :P. SO yeah chapter six.. later .
