Disclaimer - I do not own Attack The Block in anyway shape or form. I only own my original characters. For this chapter, Ruby and Jasper.
Summary - Post film. The boys think it's just another normal day when they head to Ron's for the evening. That is until they find the corpse on his living room floor. The aliens are back and with the help of Pest's long time crush, it's time to save the block again. (Pest/OC)
A/n - I watched ATB for the first time a few days ago. I've watched it three times since. It's so god damn good. I started one other Pest/Oc fic yesterday and posted it up but I had two ideas for fics and couldn't decide whether to make them into one long story or two separate ones. Obviously, I've made two separate ones just because both the new characters I thought of where too different to put into the same story. Anyway, that was unimportant and I'm rambling. So, enjoy.
Also, Jerome and Dennis are alive because I like them too much not too include them. Sorrynotsorry.
Please read and review, I'd greatly appreciate it. Hope you enjoy, xx (:
"Come, fam. We'll chill at Ron's then head off."
"And go home stinkin' of weed. Mum will love that."
"Calm down Biggz, we'll spray you with fabreeze first."
Pest laughed along with Moses and the others as they walked into the building. They stood before the lifts, Jerome pressing the button,and waiting for it to land. As the thick silver doors opened, Dennis smirked elbowing Moses and nodding to Pest, who was leant against the wall and facing the opposite direction. He had not yet seen who was on the other side of the doors.
"Alright guys." The young girl stepped out of the lift, moving her battered skateboard to rest in her left hand. At the sound of her voice, Pest turned. a small smirk on his face.
"Alright Ruby." It was no secret that Pest fancied Ruby. Ever since he went to Ron's place and found her laughing about something on the television with Brewis.
"Pest." She nodded and brushed past the group of lads.
"When are we goin' on that date then?" Pest called as she moved towards the front door.
"Not any time soon." She sent the comment over her shoulder, not daring to let the cocky boy see her pink cheeks.
"Cold!" Pest chuckled. "I'll wear you down eventually!"
"See you later." Ruby ignored his last comment and left the building, mounting her skateboard as soon as the door swung shut behind her.
"You are never gonna get that." Dennis laughed at his friend.
"You watch, bruv. She is gonna cave one day. Trust." Pest shook his head, hitting the familiar '19' button on the lift wall.
They made their way to Ron's in their usual loud manner. When Ron answered he seemed reluctant to let the boys in.
"What's goin' on?" Moses frowned. He knew it was nothing to do with Hi-Hatz. Hi-Hatz was dead and Ron ran the business now. Admittedly business was smaller but it suited Ron better.
With a sigh, Ron stepped back and opened the door. Now filled with curiosity the boys bustled through the door to see what was wrong with their friend. Jerome saw it first.
"Jesus Christ!" He took a quick step back, bumping into Moses. The boys stepped around him, to stare at what had shocked him so much.
"Fam, what the fuck is that?" Dennis turned to Ron.
Ron shrugged. "His girlfriend brought it up." He nodded in Pest's direction.
"Who?"
"Ruby." Ron dropped into his armchair, pulling out a cigarette. "Dragged it from her mate Jasper's house in a black bag."
"That fit in a black bag?" Biggz shook his head in disbelief.
"Well...The bottom was hanging out. Police stopped her once but she told 'em it was a college project."
"Dead?" Moses moved forward, closer to the...Thing.
"Deader than dead. There's a knife in it's head."
Moses knelt beside it, memories flooding back into his mind and he was sure the same was happening to everyone else in the room. "Where was Ruby going?"
"Back to Jasper's. He called her ranting about something eating Rocky."
"Rocky?"
"His dog."
Dennis clenched his fists. "Them things ate Pogo." He thought of his dog, innocently running across the park to find the source of noise and winding up being the alien's dinner.
"Yeah. But Rocky's a Doberman." Ron said. "They'd have to be bigger than those black things to eat a Doberman." He gestured now to the corpse lying on the floor between his sofas.
Bigger than the aliens they'd seen before. Twice the size and a dirty off white colour. Pieces of hair hung off in random patches. It's arms and legs were long and gangly, the bones pushing against the thin sheet of skin. It's head was long and rougher than sandpaper, again without eyes but with a huge set of alarmingly sharp teeth. This time, it's teeth were pitch black, a stark contrast to it's pale body.
"Fam...It looks like the first one. That we killed on the park...Just bigger." Pest commented. "If Ruby's gone to Jasper's and there's another one there..."
"No, no, no. Don't worry about that. This is the one she killed at Jasper's. I think he just found Rocky's body is all. She said she was going to calm him down. He loved the dog apparently." Ron explained, reclining in his chair now. "Don't you worry. Get yourselves a joint, and relax. She's coming back here after she's seen to Jasper."
The boys did as Ron said but unlike most of the time, the weed did nothing to stop them thinking the worst. They were all thinking it, even Ron. It was happening again. Aliens were back on the block.
