Chapter 1-First Meetings
?: Hey guys, VampChippz here. This is set in the GTA 5 universe and features our favorite crazy trio, H2O Delirious, VanossGaming, and I AM WILDCAT. *First chapter is in Wildcat's perspective but NOT in 1st POV. Hell, this whole story will probably end up centering around him...whoops.* This is based off of ToriTerror's Iodine (BBS Crazy Trio) video on Youtube. Check it out, it's awesome! Without further ado, enjoy!
"Man, this is such horse shit," A man grumbles as he shoulders his duffle bags once more with unease. "Why does this happen to me of all people?" His blue eyes scour the area from behind black framed glasses before he raises a fist to the door, hesitant. He had lost his spare set of keys while shuffling his way out of a vent during a robbery, making his "expedition" an almost-clean hit-and-run. He sighs in frustration, running a hand through his hair with some difficulty.
If only I knew who I was moving in with! I heard that this place was vacated up until now, with the three of us moving in. The other two better not give me much trouble...If they do, I'll simply kill them.
I can't get attached, not again…never again.
Before he even knocked the door was flung open, much to his surprise. A shorter male (although everyone was practically shorter than him) looks up to see his disgruntled face. He smiles albeit shyly, somewhat intimidated by the other's height advantage over him. Then he steps to the side, welcoming entry into the house.
"So you're one of my roommates then, too?" The male with the duffle bags huffs, walking in and setting them down near the wall adjacent to the door.
"No, I'm just your friendly neighborhood fuckboi."
Silence. Then, "That's a yes, dumbass!"
The shorter male snorts with laughter before responding. "Well alright, then! I'm Evan." He ran a hand through his spiked black hair as he stuck the other one out for his roommate to shake. The taller male hesitates before slowly grasping the other man's hand.
"Call me Wildcat for now. It's just a stupid codename an old friend came up with." He mutters. Evan eyes him suspiciously.
"...Like the notorious I AM WILDCAT, who's both a vigilante and a villain?" The man, Wildcat, clicks his tongue in annoyance, knowing that he had to come up with an excuse.
"That guy's just a poser; he wishes that he came up with that name himself!" Evan's breathless laughter fills the room again and he gives a small grin at the sound.
No one has ever really laughed with me before...huh. He shakes off the thought and looks around.
"You said 'too'. Does that mean…?" Before Evan can respond maniacal laughter floats in from the next room over and a head pops from the entryway. His ocean blue orbs shine with excitement as he locates Evan.
"Vanoss, you won't believe what I f-Is this our other roommate? Damn he's tall!" Wildcat's second roommate wore a light blue hoodie, a white t-shirt, dark blue pants, and donned a hockey-No, Wildcat corrected himself, A Jason Voorhees- mask on his face. Wildcat can also see signs of black hair as well from the way it contrasts sharply with the white mask., covering the top portion of it.
To be honest he looks familiar…
"Hey, I'm Delirious!" The seemingly carefree man waves the edges of his eyes crinkling into what Wildcat assumes is a smile on his face. He blinks as the information settles in and he gasps.
"Wait wait wait, you're that Delirious?! The one who's a superhero along with Vanoss, Moo, and Lui?!" Delirious chuckles before giving him a thumbs up.
"Yep, sure am!" I heard he has a tendency to kill villains, though… Wildcat thinks with a sweatdrop. He then whirls on Evan, eyebrows furrowed.
"You're Vanoss and Bat Owl?! Holy shit, what the hell? I knew you sounded familiar!" Evan laughs sheepishly, looking apologetic.
"Yeah; I was gonna tell you sooner or later, hopefully the former. I just didn't want you to be freaked out by the fact that you're gonna be living with two superheroes who the press love to try and interrogate…" Wildcat sighs before going back over to pick up his duffle bags, giving a nod of acknowledgement to Delirious.
"I'm Wildcat." Delirious nods, listening somewhat quietly when he heard the reason for his odd name. Once he did he shrugged.
"I mean, we all have codenames. That isn't really suspicious if it's for a reason." The hell did he mean by that? He might be more perceptive than I gave him credit for… The only brunette in the house went upstairs and found a vacant bedroom waiting for him. After setting down his equipment he grins.
Maybe moving here wasn't such a bad fuckin' idea after all… Knowing that the other two had their quirks made the tall man want to smile but he settles for a frown as a new thought pops into his head.
If they find out I'm Wildcat-well, THE Wildcat-then they'll turn me in to the police. I can't have that happen, not while I'm so close… He is shaken out of his thoughts by Evan, who peeks in on him to see his progress of unpacking.
"You good, man?" The hero asks quizzically as his expression is one of slight concern. Wildcat snorts, turning to face him with a sarcastic grin.
"Of course I am; I get to live with two other men. If that isn't gay then I don't know what is." He becomes slightly aware of a foreign feeling as the other male (And Delirious, who had come in to also check on him) laughs at his response.
It alarms him.
"How long have you guys been heroes?"
"About five years by now. We started out coming up with superhero names; for example-"
"I, am BATCOON!"
"And I, am Bat Owl!" Wildcat sighs (although he finds it's tinged with a softer, more uncommon tone from his usual sardonic and mocking self) as the two stand back-to-back, Delirious towering over Evan by a good 5 inches or so. They both held up invisible pistols, making funny faces to try and get their roommate to laugh.
"You two are un-fucking believable." The tall man could only shake his head with a grin on his face. "I have a hard time believing you guys are superheroes and not wannabes after that stunt." He was referring to only minutes before, when he had walked out of his room after unpacking to find them swinging lightsabers at each other. Delirious was mimicking the sound effects as the two blades collided while Vanoss tried to not laugh so hard that he fell to the ground. "You guys are fucking nerds."
"Superheroes can be nerds, man," Delirious says in mock offense. "I'd like to see you name one that isn't." He's satisfied when he hears silence from Wildcat's end, the latter only managing to grumble words that would make a sailor blush. The blue-hooded man laughs hysterically, eliciting a couple of chuckles from Evan as well.
"Got nothing to say, bitch?" Delirious says between his bursts of laughter. Wildcat ultimately shrugs, turning his head away from them. The room goes silent as they hear him murmur quietly.
"...Shut the fuck up." Now Vanoss is laughing, a soft sound that fills the air that is soon followed by Delirious' insane laugh. The brunette whirls on them, face red.
"What the hell are you guys laughin' at, huh?!" This only prompts them to laugh harder at their roommate, who scowls at them.
"Whatever, I'm starving! I'm gonna go get something to eat-" He's surprised when Delirious tackles him into a hug (And even more surprised that the man was, shockingly, an inch taller than him) with a pleading look on his face.
"I'm hungry too! Take me with you, please? I swear, the media doesn't know what I look like!" Wildcat opens his mouth (No, Delirious, I'm used to going by myself so shut up you pussy bitch is what is waiting to fall from his lips) when Vanoss beats him to it.
"I'm pretty hungry myself; let's go, then!" And then he grips Wildcat's and Delirious' wrists as they rush out the door.
Thank god Delirious remembered to lock it after they left.
"Why the fuck did you two have to tag along…?" Wildcat mutters for the umpteenth time. Vanoss elbows his side, a grin on his face.
"Come on; you enjoy our company and you know it. So how does it feel to hang out with two superheroes, huh?" He teases his taller roommate, who snorts in amusement.
"Fucking wonderful." He replies as Delirious runs over to photobomb a couple of teenagers taking a picture, eyes shining from behind his mask as he laughs afterwards. They were currently in the Eastside Mall, and during this time of day it was bustling with people who have all different kinds of personalities; A woman late for a business debut, a kid who dreams of being an astronaut, a teenage girl who's having the time of her life with her friends, a man who doesn't want to work at this place anymore… Wildcat snaps out of his thoughts as he sees Vanoss trying to get his attention. Vanoss can only grin as his mask-wearing friend runs back over to them, his brown eyes covered by his black shades.
"Somehow I expected you to say that."
"Of course you did…" Wildcat grumbles, arms crossed. Delirious exchanges a look with Vanoss, the latter nodding before the masked man grips and tugs on Wildcat's left arm.
"Hey-" Then Vanoss was there, gripping Wildcat's right arm with a grin on his face.
"W-Wait-" The two superheroes chuckle as they pull, tugging him towards a lemonade stand.
"Come on!" They say as they approach it, Vanoss waving to the vendor. The vendor was caucasian, having light brown hair and glasses on followed by a black jacket and jeans with sandals. Wildcat can only stumble along, looking awkward as he was pulled against his will. Not being good with strangers, he stays quiet as his two roommates talk to the man.
"Yo whaddup MiniLadd?" Vanoss says as he leans on the counter. The vendor, MiniLadd, lights up at the sight of his friend.
"Evan! Man, it's good to see you!" Two hands then cover his eyes and he grins.
"And Delirious, as always." The masked superhero pouts (And although it goes practically unnoticed because of his mask, Wildcat can feel the vibe coming off of him), retracting his hands and moving them.
"How do you do it, Mini? I just don't understand!" MiniLadd chuckles before responding in a thick Russian accent.
"A man never tells his secrets!" Vanoss pulls Wildcat closer to the stand and MiniLadd looks up at him with a smile.
"Who's this? A new teammate?" Wildcat stays silent, leaving it to Delirious to answer MiniLadd's questions. (To be honest he finds the shorter man...oddly endearing.)
"This is our roommate, Wildcat!" MiniLadd frowns at the nickname.
"Isn't that…?"
"It's a, and I quote, "stupid codename" his friend came up with. He won't tell us his real name for some reason, but I respect his privacy." Vanoss butts in, MiniLadd nodding slowly. He then sticks his hand out for him to shake, his sudden smile so bright and friendly and accepting.
"Well, it's nice to meet you Wildcat! You can just call me Craig." Wildcat grasps his hand in a gentle grip, feeling a jolt go up his arm.
"...Same here," He murmurs as he looks him in the eye, trying to sound as snarky as possible (And failing). "You're not bad. Too optimistic, sure, but not bad." Vanoss and Delirious exchange looks as if they were schoolgirls, muttering to one another as they snickered. Wildcat and MiniLadd raise an eyebrow at their behavior but brush it off.
"I mean, I was only asking because Wildcat refers to I AM WILDCAT...my friends and I have to hunt him down, by the way, because as of late he's been doing more harm than good." MiniLadd clarifies his suspicion as he puts his hands on the counter. Wildcat just nods, not really knowing what to say after that.
So that means I have to be careful from now on...I better tell Marcel. He makes a mental note to call the one person he considers a friend later on in the evening, shaking his thoughts away as he turns his attention to MiniLadd.
"Mini, right…?" The other man beams as he nods.
"Yep, that's me!"
"Can I, uh, get some fresh lemonade?" He asks as he hands over a five-dollar bill. Mini takes the money, putting it into a box before grabbing a cup and putting a couple of ice cubes in it. He then takes a lemon and literally squeezes it, the juice spilling into the cup. After it was filled up all the way he hands the refreshing drink over to Wildcat, his smile putting the sun to shame.
"Here you go, kind sir!" He says in an overly fake British accent. He didn't expect to see a small smile form on the taller man's face as he held the cup, finding that he quite liked the way it made him look.
"Yeah yeah, whatever." Wildcat says as he takes a sip, seeing Vanoss and Delirious out of the corner of his eye. "So I'll-uh, see you around?" Mini can only chuckle as he nods.
"Definitely. Oh, wait!" He calls after Wildcat, making the tall man turn around.
"Yeah?"
"I just wanted your number, that's all. So, you know...we can keep in touch!" Wildcat nods numbly, not quite believing that this was happening as he asked for Mini's phone. Once it's handed to him he goes to his contacts and adds his number under the name Wildcat (T). Handing the phone back to him he flushes, fumbling for his words.
"And what about you, huh? Can I...have your number too?" Mini smacks his own forehead as he smiles.
"Of course! Here; let me put it in real quick…" After shyly asking for his phone Mini inputs his own number under the name Craig (Mini). Handing it back to him he waves the trio goodbye, promising to stop by their house once his shift is over.
Wildcat can't help but look over his shoulder as they exit the mall, scanning the crowd for MiniLadd's face. He's surprised to see the other brunette staring at him, surprise on his own features before he raises a hand up to wave. It's accompanied by a smile that makes Wildcat's stomach flip and his cheeks warm. Slowly he raises a hand in return, waving slightly with a small smile of his own on his face.
He doesn't notice Delirious and Vanoss high-five from up ahead, laughing in victory.
"We gotta go now WIldcat; see you in the morning, since we won't be back until three am." Vanoss says as he and Delirious stand in the doorway. Wildcat frowns, brunette hair messy and his glasses askew on his face.
"Where the hell-Oh, it's your superhero shit." They nod, Vanoss' expression being grim.
"We usually come home with slight bruises and scrapes 'cause we go all out against our enemies, but this time it might be more than that; this guy is dangerous." He says no more as Delirious pushes him out of the door, aluminum baseball bat slung over his back along with a pistol and a knife strapped to his left thigh.
"But we'll be back, 'cause we're just that kickass!" Wildcat rolls his eyes in amusement at Delirious' words but doesn't say anything, too tired to reply. "Wildcat, take care of Mini okay?"
"Yeah…" He murmurs as they disappear into the night. He closes the door behind them and walks back to the living room, where Craig is asleep on the couch. He had decided to stay the night, all too happy to check out the new (And huge) place his friends had moved in to this morning. He was snoring quietly, deep in whatever dream he was having. Wildcat can only smile softly at the sight, making sure Mini was covered fully with blankets.
"I'm sure you can handle yourself if Vanoss and Delirious let you stay by their side," He mutters with a small yawn before rubbing his eyes. He then takes off his glasses, heading upstairs to his room and put them in his case. He pulls the top drawer in his dresser out, grabbing a pig mask. A white police helmet was laying on his bed along with a white t-shirt that had a pink cat in a top hat with the words "I AM WILDCAT" on the bottom and zebra striped pants. It's this attire he puts on, a feral grin on his face as he checks himself out in the mirror.
"So that's why...I'm not afraid to go all out, either."
VampChippz: Now we're getting somewhere! So Wildcat is an antihero with, obviously, some , Delirious, and MiniLadd are all heroes, Mini being the tech support along with Lui.
