Chapter 2-
Larten sees Zombieland 2
After his little outing, Larten had returned to the Cirque and found out what an iPod was. "You see, it holds music. You have to buy it, though, off of this website called iTunes. Then, when you get the music, you can listen to it whenever you feel like it. Although, they're really expensive compared to MP3 players, like I have." explained Darren.
Larten nodded. Now that he had a little information, the conversation made a little more sense. "So, um….why'd you need to know?" asked his assistant curiously. Larten eyed him. "It doesn't concern you, and you'd be wise not to interfere." Darren huffed. "Well, I was just curious. Gosh." "Darren, go feed the wolf-man." He groaned, then stalked out the door, still grumbling.
About two minutes later, Larten flitted back to the theater. He couldn't help himself, these kids were interesting. Sticking to the shadows, he made his way to a slightly overweight man by a counter. "Excuse me, but in which theater is the movie 'Zombieland Two' playing?" he asked. The fat man eyed him. "Theater four. And do you have money to pay for that, sir?" he inquired in a not-so-friendly tone. Larten raised an eyebrow, then blew his vampire breath all over the fat man, knocking him unconscious.
Humming to himself, Larten made his way to theater four. He, surprisingly, was not seen by any other humans. Humans, that is.
Darren was suddenly walking beside him. "Darren." he said through gritted teeth. "Did I not tell you to feed the wolf-man?" Darren looked at him. "Yeah, you did…." "So, did you do that?" "No, I told Evra to do it for me." The older vampire sighed. "This is supposed to be a private outing, for me. Not you. Me."
Darren looked up at the title over the theater door.
"So you're going to see Zombieland 2?"
"Yes. I find this movie fascinating."
"What's the main character's name?"
"Tallahassee."
"Wrong. It's Columbus."
Larten glared at the half-vampire. "Go home. Now." he gave Darren a glare. He gulped, then ran outside. Smart kid. He made his way into the theater.
Finding the teenagers was not very hard. The one called Kenzie was screaming, "Go Talla! You show that mother effer who's boss!" While Ashley was attempting to pull her back down into her seat. Ben sat quietly to one side, watching the movie. Larten took a seat behind them.
Kenzie stopped screaming, after being threatened by a man who apparently worked there. Larten turned his attention to the movie. A man of about thirty, dressed similarly to that of a cowboy, was shooting down people with blood and gore dripping from them. He honestly didn't see the appeal.
He watched for a few more moments, then a curly-haired man came on screen. Ashley gave a little squeal, and Ben looked at her. "Yay! Columbus!" she whispered excitedly to Kenzie, who rolled her eyes. Then they continued watching. Soon, the cowboy man took his shirt off to stifle the blood coming from his leg, after falling on a dead zombie. Kenzie gave a sort of 'wooooo!' from in front of him. "Come on, Talla, take it all off!" she yelled. The man came back, this time giving her a warning.
After about two more hours of this, the movie ended. Kenzie was screaming and yelling again, and Ashley clapped. Ben just tried to get out of his seat. They all fought their way out of their seats, and into the aisle. Ashley was letting people out of them, which Larten found nice. Kenzie just bulldozed her way out, and Ben followed Ashley.
The red-head stopped in front of Larten, and motioned for him to go ahead out. Then she took a good, long look at him. "Ummmm…..why are you dressed up like Larten Crepsley?" she asked, using a similar tone as to how Darren asked questions. Larten's heart gave a thump. How did this human know about him? Why was she so casual about it? He didn't give her time to ask another question, jumping over the rows of seats. He then flitted all the way back to the Cirque.
When he got back to his and Darren's tent, he found his assistant there. "So, uh, Zombieland 2? Was it good?" Larten grumbled, "Yes…." then went to his coffin.
(AN-And….fin! For this chapter at least!)
