Confessions of an Undead Simian

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Reza's making a sequel? To Vampire Monkey?

Yes, indeedy! I hated writing the ending to it, and I'm mad at Gibson for it… so I decided to take it… and screw with its head.

Hopefully this time I don't forget who Chiro is for an entire chapter. XD

Pairings:

Gibson/Antauri

SPRX/Nova

Chiro/Jinmay

Otto/Mandarin

You MUST read Vampire Monkey to understand this fic! It's like a book, you don't start on the second one! Read the first, pretty please! And review it, too. 8D

~~…~~

"Antauri, could you watch this for me?" Gibson asked.

The silver monkey paused, "Hm? Is something wrong?"

"Kind of." Gibson yawned, "I haven't slept in three days and I feel ready to collapse."

Antauri chuckled, lifting the blue monkey into his arms and placing him on the medical table.

"Sleep well, Gibson." Antauri smiled.

"Wake me… if something happens." Gibson yawned and closed his eyes.

~~…~~

Antauri lifted Gibson into his arms, smiling.

"Comfortable?"

"Very." Gibson smiled and nuzzled closer to the silver monkey, "I love you."

"I love you, too, Hal." Antauri smiled and kissed his forehead.

Antauri carried Gibson out to some sort of field, filled with brightly colored flowers. He set the blue monkey down and sat next to him.

"Antauri?"

"Yes?"

"Do you remember what happened about a week before you died?"

"I do not."

Gibson sighed, "You know I love you, right?"

Antauri smiled, "And I will always return the sentiment."

Gibson leaned on Antauri's shoulder, "Would you hate me if I told you the truth?"

"Yes."

Gibson looked up at Antauri, shocked to see his eyes had turned blood red.

"You lied to me, Hal. You lied just to satisfy yourself. I will never forgive you."

~~…~~

Gibson shot awake, panting heavily. He sighed in relief that Antauri had left the room, pulling his knees up to his chin.

"I'm a horrid being… I can't believe I did something so selfish…"

He jumped as the alert sounded, knocking him from his thoughts. He quickly left the lab, making his way to the common room.

"What's happened?" He asked.

Otto looked at the view screen, "Is it just me, or does that guy look familiar?"

Gibson froze, "No…"

Antauri paused, "What? Who is it? I don't recognize him."

Gibson shook his head, "It's nothing… just… just make sure to stay far away from him…"

SPRX walked in, "What's going on? Hey, look, it's the vampire dude!"

Antauri paused, "Vampire?"

"Yes, vampire." Gibson glared at SPRX.

"Alright, I'm positive I've missed something." Antauri crossed his arms, "Because last I checked, Gibson didn't believe in anything magical in nature, and I've never met a vampire in my life… lives…"

Gibson paused. He contemplated telling Antauri the truth…

"It was nothing!" SPRX smiled, "Let's just get rid of him and go on with our lives!"

Chiro nodded, "Make sure you don't let him too close to you. Keep moving."

~~…~~

"Hal!" Antauri shouted.

Gisbon shouted in pain as his drill was ripped off. He quickly activated his jet pack, using it to get as far away from the mutated guy as possible.

Antauri ran over, catching Gibson in his arms.

"Are you okay?" Antauri asked.

Gibson groaned, "I'm missing a hand… wonderful."

Otto ran over, "I can't fix that right now, but I will when we're done. Promise!"

"Move!" Gibson shouted, pushing Otto and Antauri out of the way. He shouted in pain as the vampire grabbed him by the tail, throwing him into the side of a building.

Antauri growled, leaping after the demon. He switched to ghost form, chasing him around.

"Can't catch me." The vampire taunted.

Antauri smirked, reverting to normal, "Gotcha."

He froze, noticing he was surrounded.

"Chiro Spearo!"

"Sting Ring!"

"Manga-Bolt Laser!"

"Sritch-Scratch Doom Thrower!"

"Monkey Mind Scream!"

"Spin Shocker!"

The vampire smirked, letting each of the attacks hit him.

"You think this crap will hurt me?" he laughed, "Nothing can kill me!"

Otto groaned, "Crap! What, do we have to call Buffy the Vampire Slayer or something?"

SPRX: Why can't we just fix him like the last time?" SPRX asked.

Gibson growled, "Because it's been half a year, SPRX! I'm pretty sure that the water no longer runs through my veins!"

Antauri groaned, "This hurts my head…"

The vampire paused, "Um… hello? Trying to kill you, here."

"Oh, right!" SPRX chuckled, "What were you saying?"

"Forget the monologue." The vampire sighed. He smirked, making a dash for Nova. SPRX shouted in protest, attacking him to protect her.

Antauri ran over to Gibson, ghost hands activated, "Get back to the Super Robot and fix your hand."

"I am perfectly capable of defending myself with one hand, thank you."

"Gibson, you can either accept my help, or be killed, take your pick."

Gibson growled, "Or you could bite me." He snapped, using a comeback that SPRX used often.

Antauri paused, turning around, "What?" His eyes widened when, instead of seeing Gibson missing a hand in a half-destroyed Suggazoom… he saw Gibson, his hands normal with four longs gashes in them, Mandarin standing behind him, with a cut on his shoulder, standing in a frozen wasteland.

"Antauri, move!" Gibson shouted, grabbing him and jumping off to the side, "What is wrong with you? Don't space off in the middle of a fight!"

Antauri shook his head, "My bad… something… something weird is happening…"

The vampire cried out in utter pain as Otto's saws finally cut skin, leaving a rather nice gash in his arm.

"This isn't over, Monkey Team!" he shouted and ran off.

~~…~~

"Are you okay, Antauri?" Gibson asked, "I'm sorry for yelling at you earlier, I just don't want to see you killed… again."

Antauri nodded, "Yes… I'm sorry… I… I need to see something." He left the lab, heading down to the Computer Bay. He looked up areas covered in ice that they'd been to, looking through the list.

"Sea of Ice… Zorkon IV… I remember all of these, but… wait a minute… Mandarin…"

He changed the search, the results thinning to two instances.

"Okay, this one I remember… but the other…" he tried to open the file, but a passcode was required. He entered the code usually used for these kinds of files, 'Alchemist'…

ACCESS DENIED

~~…~~

Whoooooooo! Antauri's having… flashbacks? But, who changed the passcode? What's i8n the file? What happened to Mandarin? Who took the cookie from the cookie jar?

Antauri: That last one is obvious.

Otto: -innocent smile- I'm an angel!

Aw, look at how cute he is! You stole my cookie, you piece of broccoli!

Antauri: Please review!

Otto: MY COOKIE! –noms-

That cookie was spoken for!
