- Kai is a psychopathic schizophrenic with tiny friends that live behind his ears, who tell him to do bad things.
- WARNINGS IN GENERAL: Swearing, character deaths (though, they won't be as upsetting at my other story, 'Fairytales'…), and lots of swearing in humour at the deaths…
- WARNINGS FOR THIS CHAPTER: Er… Swearing, and a particularly violent murder involving Kai and a baseball bat…
- Disclaimer: Because I am a lazy tart, I shall only say this once throughout the entire story. I do not own Beyblade, any characters (other than Ronnie and Roxy), and nothing else Beyblade-related.
- A/N: You know what… This idea also came up in a conversation between me and MarianQ… That girl has bad influences on me! On the other hand, the amount of stories I've written are going up… XD Enjoy!
They Live Behind My Ears
Chapter One: Ronnie And Roxy
Muttering to himself, Kai Hiwatari was walking down a deserted high street in Russia, his eyes darting back and forth at the strangers staring at him. It was raining, and many people were taking shelter to keep dry. Not Kai. Kai was in need of a fix, and not one that you might be thinking of.
"Just pick a randomer," whispered a tiny little woman from behind Kai's right ear.
"He can't do that… It's better to pick someone who he's talked to or knows… Makes it easier to get to them," a man, just as tiny, argued from behind Kai's left ear.
Kai's brow knitted together in a frown, as he had to listen to them bicker. Roxy (the woman behind his right ear) and Ronnie (the man behind his left ear) were continuously bickering as to who he should kill next. That was his fix. He needed to kill, and that was why he was roaming the rain-pounded streets. Ronnie and Roxy were his 'friends', his 'companions', his 'partners in crime', if you like. They lived behind his ears, and it was only Kai who could see or hear them.
"Will you two shut the fuck up?!" Kai snapped, startling a passing woman, who quickly scurried off.
"Sorry, Kai," Ronnie apologised.
"Hey, look at that… A commotion that isn't actually involving us," Roxy said, pointing to an argument between a man and a woman outside a little café.
Kai turned to where Roxy was pointing, and watched with narrowed eyes as the man tried to pull the woman away from the café. She was protesting, and shouting all sorts of obscenities at him. As Kai crossed the road to confront the man, Roxy giggled with evil glee.
"Hee hee, Kai's going to have his fix!" Roxy cackled.
"But we don't even know him!" Ronnie said.
"Yeah, and? We didn't know the last three, either," Roxy replied.
"I give up… You just go on ahead, Kai. Murder whoever the fuck you want. Listen all you want to bimbo over there," Ronnie sighed.
"Who are you calling a bimbo, you shortarse?!" Roxy retorted.
"You're just as small, you smelly old trout!"
"Why you-"
"Shut the fuck up!" Kai whispered.
Kai stepped onto the pavement, and walked over to the rowing couple. As he neared them, he could hear clearly that the man was drunk. He was so drunk, Kai could smell it. The woman was trying to push the drunkard away, and he was trying to pull her with him. When Kai was about a metre away from them, he understood that the drunkard was trying to get her to go with him, and she clearly didn't want to.
"C'mon, love… I won't treat ya wrong… I'll give you a good boning…" the man slurred.
"Get off of me, you drunk prick!" the woman squealed, trying, and failing, to wrench her arm out of his grasp.
Kai raised his eyebrows as he noticed that none of the fellow bystanders were trying to help her. He stepped forward.
"I think you should back off, mate," Kai said calmly to the drunkard, putting his own hand on the drunkard's arm.
"I ain't your mate, mate. I'm just tryna get laid, y'know what I mean?"
"Go and hire a prostitute, then. There's plenty down the next street," Kai replied, pulling the man's hand off the woman.
The drunkard spat at Kai's feet, but began to stagger off, anyway. Kai turned to look at the woman, who seemed quite shaken, but relieved and thankful.
"Thank you so much," she said.
"No problem," Kai replied, mustering up a smile. She'd make a pretty victim…
"Kai, let's get that pissed bloke. He'll be an easy target!" Roxy said, her eyes on the retreating man.
Kai bid the woman goodbye, and began walking down the street, the same way as the drunk man. As Kai turned into the next street, he saw the man not too far away, staggering about and shouting insults at various inanimate objects.
Kai sighed as he followed the man at a distance, but just enough to keep him in his sights. He realised that it would be a while before he would get a chance to harm the man, but also knew that Roxy was right. The man was an easy target.
About two hours, many arguments and lots of falling over (the drunk man was having issues walking, it seemed) later, Kai was stood outside the end house of a terrace. Kai put his hood up, and stood just behind the front hedge, and watched as the living room light flicked on, and the drunk man collapsing in the middle of the room.
Thinking that this was a good time as ever, Kai made his way up the path and pushed the unlatched door open. The man, in his rat-arsed state, had forgotten to shut it properly. As Kai stepped into the house, he spotted a baseball bat leaning against the doorframe of the living room.
Kai took out some gloves in his pocket, and popped them on. Then, soundlessly, he picked up the baseball bat, and made his way into the living room. The man was passed out on the floor, completely comatose. Kai raised the bat as he neared the man, and just as he was about to swing the bat down, the man rolled over, and his eyes shot open.
"Wha' the fuck you think you doin'?" he shouted.
Kai knew that if the man made too much noise, he would attract attention, and so Kai brought the bat down quickly, hitting the man's face directly. He heard the man's nose break, and watched as the man rolled over, spitting a few teeth out.
Lifting the bat up again, Kai repeated his actions, again, and again, and again, hitting various body parts. Kai didn't stop until the man stopped moving, and even then, Kai hit him with the bat again. Just once more, for good measure.
"Yes!" Roxy squealed with utter joy. "Another one bites the dust!"
"Next time, can you kill someone we know. It'll be more fun," Ronnie said, folding his arms, and trying to look annoyed, but actually very pleased of the bloody mess Kai had created.
Kai bent down, and listened for any breathing, and checked for a pulse. Completely satisfied that the man was dead, Kai dropped the bat, and left the house, not completely sure of what he was doing or where he was going.
A/N: How was that for a first chapter?? The next chapter will involve a dead Grandfather… He'll already be dead. He just be hanging around… Teehee.
I'm really bloody cold. My thighs feel like jelly.
My rabbit is randomly eating paper. Is that normal?
I must go and help my Dad make food, now. Leave reviews with how you think this may turn out :D
