DISCLAIMER: Do I look like a deranged corporation of perverted nerds? Oh, wait, that's Capcom. Sorry- Anyway. I don't own Klonoa.
Anyone here play Adult Swim games? Ever played Coma?
I think of Klonoa every time. Damn. The kid even has a floating round things with him. DAMN. I might make fanart of that. I have some somewhere.
I actually had idea of this story having a game. And if you get a bad end. You unlock a screwed up 'Coma' level. Where if you can fix everything there, you can go back to the regular game and keep plaything to fix these. But if you don't fix enough things, creepy-ass creepypasta shit goes down. Yeah.
Poeticly though, and with meaning. I can't be too mean to Klo'a and friends. XD
-The Pilot Episode: Part 3: Rescue Me-
"It is good to meet you all. I am your social worker Suriyu Ocean. I'll just be spending a few hours here to assess your living situation." Said Suriyu. A tall, bulky, blue-haired business guy. With a very mencing clipboard he's already started writting on.
"Hiiiii." Said Janga- who's acting like he's trying to talk with bees darting around in his stomach. "It is ni-iiiiiiice- to meeeeet yooooou. I am the ma-aaaaan, of, the, h-hoooooooouse." He stiffly held a hand out. He managed to throw a dress shirt on himself to look less like a- uhm- wife beater? Huepow's parents had a crazy-large secret collection of mobster movies we would steal and stay up all night watching.
I really miss Huepow right about now. Should I write a letter? maybe mail it from Guntz' address- oh who am I kidding? his parents will let him write letters to me. I'm just looking for diffrent things then the current task at hand to worry about.
I really think it's more suspicious that we've all lined up in a little group infront of the door to greet him. Like, maybe someone should sit on a couch or something. Excuse themself to the bathroom instead of stand here and try to smile.
Leorina's changed into a shirt that looks like it's probably Guntz'- and some long jeans. She takes a step up and holds out a hand. "And I'm Leorina- I jus-" She stopped short, staring.
He took her hand, shaking it while he watched her closely. "Yes?"
She stepped back. "I- I'm sorry, you caught us at a bad time- Dada and I aren't feeling well, are we?" She turned around completely to face Janga.
"Riiiiiiiight." He said, teeth gritting in a scary smile.
Tat hops up to him- "HIIIII! I'm Tat! I like barbies- can I have one? My other one broke." She held up the two pieces Janga made for her earlier.
Suriyu raised an eyebrow, writting more in the clipboard at the same time he talked to her. "And how did that happen dear?"
She blinked. "Uhhhhhhm." then she pointed to Janga. "Daddy stepped on it!"
Janga set his hand behind his head. "Oooopsieeee."
Leorina speaks up again- "Daddy? Do you still have the Pepto in your room?"
Janga nodded. "Yes~ I'll go get it~" He turned and stiffly went off to the hallway. Leorina followed after him.
Suriyu watched after them, and- uh- wrote more. Then he looked at the couch. "This house is only three bedrooms, does someone sleep out here?"
Even Guntz is at least mocking the smiley-face pose. "No~ but last night Tat was watching movies and her and Janga fell asleep out here together~ but she shares a room with Leorina." He sugarly explains. Don't, laugh, just, don't. "...I'll be right back." He says more in-character. Leaving into the hallway. "Klonoa is my friend, you can ask him things if you want."
Oh common Guntz!
Too late to hide my loud gulpping sound when he looks down at me.
-Guntz's POV
Good Goddess Claire what are they doing!?
They both dragged their feet down the hall, so they just make it to the end when I catch up. After choked, panting breaths of pyschotic rage, Janga whips his arms up and pins Leo's neck to the wall.
These walls aren't that thick- and all it takes is five steps forward and that guy can see us. We're barely hidden- and if Janga starts screaming.
"Okay little princess." He growls- He at least attempts to whisper. "Just where, have, you, been?" He struggled to keep it quiet- what's nearby? I can hit him in the head with that firetruck if he gets too loud. Say he fell down-
Leorina's wrestled her airway clear enough to say something. "Now... is not... the time..." She tries to gasp out. Any other situation and she'd have her heels between his legs by now. And he probably knows that.
But Tat needs a roof over her head, Leorina needs a safe house, Janga needs the occasional welfare check and I need a house to just be arrested to next time I do something illegal.
"Why is that Leorina my precious? why is it not the perfect time to break your neck!?"
Leo's next gasp is alittle too loud and I'm praying that social dick back there doesn't hear it. "I... know... The social worker."
Janga whips his hands away. "From where!?"
She's keeping her panting quiet while she refrains from mauling him back. "He's a cop! and he's the only one that's ever gotten me in cuffs!"
Wait a minute- "Leorina, you come home in cuffs every three days."
"On a mayjor charge." She explained- shit. "He barely got to see my face but too long and he's going to regonize me."
Janga's about to hit a wall- clenching his fists and gritting his teeth to keep from it. "Oh God, well that's just great." He was about to go into one of his lond insulting rambles but that usually escalates in volume the longer he talks.
Leorina staggers back into her regular self. "I'll try and keep clear of him- Good grief look at you, J- go hide in your room for a bit. You'll get him more suspisious like this."
Janga grumbled a few things before unsteadily wadding into his bedroom. When he's left Leorina takes out her ponytail and flips her hair around. "How's your decoy? never seen him before."
Eh, yeah, Klonoa. "He's new, the only one I could think of to ask. Doesn't like it though, Janga's already exampled all the things we're lying about infront of him."
She's smoothing the hair to covor her face. "Is he stupid?"
Not really, just a real nuisance. "...Enough." Can barely stand him. If he doesn't screw this up I'm fine with just never talking to him again.
"How do I look?" Uh... Face is covored. "And don't say 'hot'."
Eh- erp- eh- I- "What?"
She blinks. "...Good enough." She stomps past me- gah! why does she keep saying shit like that!
-Klonoa's POV
"No~" I've never seen them fight... physically.
"At all? verbally or physically?" Oh common! I keep trying to bend everything around in my mind to make it seem like I'm not technically lying. It would work really good if he wasn't being so specific!
"They- have had their arguments. Like all families do." Huepow would get into little fights with his Dad over what rooms I was allowed to come in.
Huepow's Dad never yelled and broke his toys though...
"Guntz!" Yes! Guntz and Leorina have come back! Leorina's got her long red hair down, and goes straight to Tat. Guntz comes over to my side.
"Hey squert." He pats my head- ah, this feels awkward. Like when I peek into a study room and Huepow's arguing with his Dad about it. Guntz turns to Suriyu. "Sorry, Janga's not feeling well, we think him and Leo caught something at the seafood buffett the other day."
"I see." He drones. Writting more in his- clipboard- dangit I hate it when he does that!
He gets up to go over to Leorina and Tat- they've gotten closer to the corner of the room now, in the shadows.
I tug on Guntz' shirt. "Hey, maybe it would be better if you stopped glaring at him all the time."
The glare is turned on me- ooooh, maybe should have thought of that.
CRASH
"Blas-ted- KIDS!" Comes after that crash. Janga runs out of the hallway- then he tries to casually lean against the wall. "Da-a-amn kids, threw a baseball through the window." He kindof just stands there for a while. Uh-huh, it's awkward again. Leorina tries to gesture her head towards the door. "Well, better track them down- make sure they get their ball back. Be back in a jiffy." He darts out the door in a purple blur...
Suriyu's head is turned to the door when Guntz grabs my arm and pulls me into the hallway. He drags me into another bedroom- it's trashed. And this one's darker then Guntz'- and I don't think the window was broken by a baseball- my guess is the mattress sticking through it as the cause.
Guntz goes over to it and tries to get it out- I help him. "Did he just do this?"
"Yeah."
"Why?"
"Otherwise he'd be gritting teeth and seething all day with Mr. Social- just pull it out- get a grip."
We both take a good tug at the right time and smooth it back into place easily- the only trouble is my yelp when we see Mr. Social on the other side of the window.
"And what are you two boys doing?"
"...Looking for the ball." Good Guntz. I couldn't think of anything.
Suriyu is looking around the window. "Strange, it seems if a ball went through it from the outside, all the glass would be on the inside."
Oooooh~ Granpa watched enough CSI for me to know this doesn't look good.
Guntz is good though. "Hm, probably fell out when we lifted the mattress."
But Suriyu is still eyeing us. "Must have." He looks around some more. "Now, I wonder what your Godfather's up to? just sped his car down the road. Those hoodlums couldn't have gone that far."
He walks away with that. I gulp again- hnnnyah~ why me? "Now what do we do?"
Guntz groans. "Janga going joy-riding helps in the long run. He won't be here to screw anything up." He looks around the room- there's a-... tire... in the corner of the room. Guntz props it up and rolls it out of the room.
"What's that for?"
"It's a personal thing." He rolls it into his own room
Hmmmm. Guntz is pretty insane. He comes out the door- and perks. He heard something- oh, wait- talking in the living room.
I follow him out there- Suriyu's back inside, he's backed Leorina and Tat against the wall- first thing I make out of him saying is- "- and I will figure it out-" Guntz is about to do something- I'm about to start panicking-
Janga bursts through the door.
"DADDY DADDY! THE SOCIAL WORKER MAN IS SCARING ME AND LEORINA!" Tat runs to cling to his leg.
Janga, apparently just returning from his acting lessons- "Oh he is is he? what's the matter Tattly-cat?" He cooes- more so maliciously when he looks up to Suriyu.
Suriyu is glaring back. "Just simply trying to get to the point of the matter."
"Daddy Daddy he wants to take me away! he wants to take me away from you and Leorina! I don't wanna go with him Daddy I love you!"
"Don't be silly Tattle, he's not going to take you away. Isn't that right ?" Yeah, now Janga's more scary.
"I'm sure." Is the only thing he says- uhm- before- he, looks at me. "But if you don't mind, I have some more questions to ask. Might I start with your friend?"
Aaaaaand, suddenly I feel evil glares darting into my body from every direction.
-Later
And so, the rest of my day was very eventful. I had been so sure Suriyu wouldn't ask about the cabinet, but he did. And he was searching unrelentlingly for things to write down in that little clipboard.
He especially liked the few punchholes in the walls he found.
But the worst he was really able to prove was from me. He really liked asking me stuff out of nowhere. And I wasn't doing a very good job. Little things like 'Has anyone ever tried to hurt you?' Yes, earlier today. 'What does the family argue about specifically?' Barbies, where they are, it's not so much fighting as it is random insults and statements. 'Do you mind being here?' I was kind of dragged here. But it's no biggie.
He just kept catching me off guard while I was watching him ask everyone else things, and it would take me too long to answer and he would write something on his clipboard again.
So I keep feeling really bad and really stupid everytime I know I bombed something. Just hoping he doesn't ask me the killer question- 'Are you scared of anyone in this house?'
Yeah. Janga, Guntz, Tat- and she hasn't even talked directly to me. Leorina's fine so far.
And I'm putting 'Dragged to a house to lie' and 'then did it horribly' on my Pros and Cons board. This is just a really crazy day-
Ohmigawd I only got into the country this morning! Magyaaaa! I want Huepow!
I want to curl up into a bed and sleep. Tomarrow I can go to school, go to the correct class, and then go home and maybe- oh- I don't know- sit down.
The sun's going down. Leorina already came over to me once and asked if I was alright. Yeah, I'm fine. Just really, really tired.
He hasn't come over to talk to me in a while. I just hunkered down in a corner next to the door. Really, really wishing Guntz would just take me home now.
I'm tiiiiiiired.
"Well, I think I've asked all I can at this point." Oh- weee! yay! I get to go home now!
"It was a pleasure speaking with you sir." Janga's still doing the creepy malice thing. I don't know if he think's it makes him look sane or what. It's just scary.
"Yes, well." He comes over- ah, darn, he stops at me. Sitting at the door wasn't a good idea. "How about another for you boy?" He bends down to my level. "Has anyone here ever scared you?"
You know what? "You are scaring me~"
I hear a couple snickers, and it looks like Suriyu has given up. "Well, alright then-" He reaches into his shirt pocket- pulls out a card. "Well- how about you just call me if you ever need anything? Ever see anything bad?"
I nod and take the card. Oh~ a cute little dragon on it. Fly dragon fly~
When he stands back up he stays a moment so I look up at him again. Just a long anticipated glaring contest with Janga. Both with matching expressions of 'I hate what you're doing and I can't do anything about it.' Hnnnnnn~
It stays like that for longer then it feels like, too mesmerizing to say it's awkward, but that would probably be a fitting discribtion too. Hnnn~ I think he'll be back again soon~
Hope Guntz doesn't bring me over for that too, huh- maybe I should come up with better ways to lie- Wait, am I seriously still on Guntz' side?
I think I am, but, that might just be due to how scary Suriyu is sometimes. Might be the authority thing. Guntz and his family are probably the righter ones to be afraid of.
But somehow, I can't say I wouldn't do it again if Guntz asked. I just have a feeling this is what I'm supposed to be doing~ Granpa always told me I must be pyschic or something.
Finally Suriyu turns around and leaves out the door, with a final- "I'll talk with my superiors and a letter will be sent informing you of your passing, or, if another visit will be arranged." Huuuuh, wonder which one it will be? "Good day."
He leaves out the old screendoor and I sit there, huh, the suns pretty far down. How long did this take? maybe my tiredness makes sense.
That, and I think there's about a three-hour time diffrence for Phantomile and Lunatea. I 'unno.
Everyone's silent until we finally hear his car go down the road. I don't mind, really. No vampires here, not going to suck my blood.
"Good, GOD."
"Shut the hell up Guntz."
I knew it was a lie when Guntz said I could leave the second it was done.
He's currently stomping himself around the room. Leorina's the one who's chiding him. Janga looks like he's still glaring at a ghost-image of Suriyu's eyes. "I went to Elementry school with that guy." He sneers. "He was a fucking prick then too."
Janga finally shuts his eyes and starts grabbing at his head, looking pretty miserable.
Tat looks like she just stopped holding her breath and makes a loud screech, and starts tearing at her pretty-pink-sparkly-fairy-princess-dress. "Can I take this OFF NOW!?"
Leorina tries to keep her from stripping while Janga's started pacing like Guntz now, with some added growling noises. Guntz himself tried to calm down at the kitchen counter and then- gah! he's looking at me again!
Icy blue eyes freezing themselves into by very soul- Haah- that was-... verily dramatic but entirely accurate- Oh, hey, I didn't know I knew those words.
GAH! Guntz approching!
I didn't realize I'd hopped to a standing position until he had me against the wall. "You're not telling any of this to no one. Not to Pango. Not to Mr. Suriyu. Not to any of your stupid jabberface friends. Not anyone, you hear?!"
Uh, excuse me? I just- I just- "Geez! Guntz! what's your problem? I just stuck my neck out trying to help you! you don't have to be such an ass!"
"Ha!" Janga suddenly booms back to reality. "He told you!"
Guntz doesn't acknowledge, he's still staring awe-stucken at me. What? Why do people look so surprised when I yell? Sorry for informing you you were being pyscho.
Well, I don't quite think of him as that yet. But I definitley found a way to make him shut up! Hahahaaa~
Leorina's distracted Tat with a barbie while she struggles to fix the dress. "Just let him go now, Guntz, it's fine."
Guntz shakes his head clear and stands up like the before things weren't said. "He lives on the other side of town, I have to take him."
"Oh God." Janga groans.
"Wait a couple minutes, he could be down the road waiting for the yelling to start." Tat mumbles, it kinda looks like she's dissecting that barbie. Oh- gross.
"Oh but of course the seven-year-old is the smart one." Janga grumbles.
Tat puts down the barbie to pout. "I'm eleven!"
Janga stops mid-pacing and blinks at her. "You're eleven? when'd you get to be eleven?"
Trying... not... to laugh... ha!
"Last april, now-" Leorina stops, and looks up- Janga's angerly pacing, Tat's mumbling some crazy string of mostly violent-sounding words, Guntz is leaned against the wall but I can feel rage towards me radiating off his body like a thick sweater in humid summer.
I can't look too good either. Kindof hard to force normalcy when Guntz' anger is radiating right next to me.
Leorina growls. "Tone it down a few notches people! It's like a sauna in here!" Ah, she feels it too. Good, I'm not just paranoid.
Janga's stopped to look at her, not very happy. "And you, you little princess you- what do you think you were doing out shitting around while that fucktard was on his way!?"
"On my way here!"
Lessee, where's the nearest phone? maybe offer to call Pango to pick me up- Ah- there's the pho-... Is... that- the- phonecord? detached from the phone and wrapped creepily around a clump of distorted and broken barbies?
This is creepy.
"You keep breaking your fuckin phone and no one knows where you are-"
"I called Guntz at school-"
"Guntz doesn't give a shit!" Well, maybe not when- "He doesn't count as a human being."...Hneh.
Leorina just stalls and give him a kinda-sorta-really funny 'Seriously?' face. "Well, that's irrelevent."
"Ghommonfact-ough" Tat coughs and then acts all innocent. A few rips added to her fairy-princess dress.
Then I hear Guntz scoff. "Yeah, well, how about I just leave you all alone now?" He says- oh-oh-oh! home now? please?
Janga swirls around to glare at him, both hands actively pulling his hair out- Then suddenly one flies out and goes for Leorina-
She sidesteps it and his hand bashes it the wall. "Gah! fucking- fuckfuckfuckfuckfuck!"
That commotion is kind of between us and the door- Guntz grabs my shoulder and pulls me back off to his room right as Tat starts the evil cackles.
Yeah- I don't blame him. I didn't want to walk through that either.
So I breeze through his tiny room and plop down on the bed. Guntz leans against the wall and slides down to sit on the newest piece of furniture he recently rolled in here.
The noise out in the living room picks up fast. Just lots of Janga cursing and Leorina yelling so loud you can't understand what she's saying- ah, and Tat's laughing.
I look over at him. "Will you start talking or something please?" I don't want to hear that.
Guntz just growls like good ole' Guntz. "I don't know- what do you want to talk about?"
Uhhhhh~... "... What's your favorite color?"
He gives me another scary glare, but no chills this time. It just makes me giggle. "Red."
"Ah! mine too!" It's the one color I can't see at all, but I think that's the reason.
He just scoffs and rolls his eyes, leaning back to the wall. "God, this day won't end."
No kidding. But seriously- I start trying to think of something- "...Guntz?"
"Yeah?"
"What's with the tire?"
He looks down to what he's sitting on. "Inside thing. If we wern't rolling this back and forth we'd probably kill eachother."Ah-ha-ha."
"Ow! you little, whore!"
"Bring it,"
"Getem getem getem getem!"
Ah, sounds nice out there~
But I don't really want to hear it. Just forget it, I don't care when it happens, I'll get out of here later. After it's all quieted down. Guntz is just watching the floor- looks like I have to keep starting the conversations-
Look around the room- racing games, puzzle games, shooting games, and besides all that it looks like the controllers busted. Anyway- looking, looking, and just more yelling outside.
I find the guitar finally. "You play?"
He looks up and over to it finally. "That? yeah." He leans over to grab it. It's just black and gold with an X carved in the front.
I'm just watching, trying to ignore all the noise. Focus on what he's doing- He looks up. He's looking at me hard, almost like he's figuring out what I want to hear. I keep watching-
There's a loud boom in the other room and I think we both jumped. He plays the first thing that comes to mind-
"So, when I look to the sky,
I say hey, the stars are still embracing.
Looks like a crowd of people,
Emmiting all diffrent types of lights.
So, I look to the sky,
And I said 'Hey, I wanna shine for once,'
I close my eyes and promise my heart,
And entrust my dreams to that Shooting star,"
I leaned against the headboard- it's not as close as I thought it was- I'm mostly on the pillow. I just keep listening to him so I don't register any of the screaming.
This day really won't end. I have to sit here, ignoring everything around me so I don't have a panic attack. And I'm just so tiiiiiiired. I miss Huepow, I miss Granpa, and I even miss Pango, just want to go to my new room and try out the bed.
I hate that I've had to run around all day. When I first woke up I knew there was something to be uneasy about. I hate that I can't go to sleep yet, I-... Has Guntz played other songs? where'd the time go?
"So, when I look to the sky
I say hey, the stars are still embracing.
Looks like a crowd of people,
Emmiting all diffrent types of lights,
So when I'm feeling down,
I look to the sky and I remember,
The wish I made when I was young,
I made a vow right here in my heart,
And I entrusted my dreams to a Shooting star,"
-End Chapter-
YES. I LOVE THIS SO MUCH.
That final song was the english lyrics to 'Shooting Star' by Homemade Kakozu. Made this at the start of the Naruto fandom-ness. XD
I love this story. So much. And everything in it. I don't know when I'll continue. It will be some day. I just love it. Maybe little chapters here and there. But it will be. I had meant for this to be a never-ending fanfic. And it'll be. Even if I have to type-out a false season finale on my deathbed. XD
Completely serious.
I love this story, I love Klonoa. I love it all. Just, yes. So, since I'll be picking up numerous other things now, I'll leave this here for anyone who actually reads this. So, I love you, guys, mwah! (Curls up to story with handmade lopsided Janga plushie) Kuuuuuuu~
Episode 2: My Very Own Scar(let)face Movie preview:
"Was that really needed?"
"It's boring to just simply walk up to someone and say 'May I speak with them for a minute?' Pretending to threaten their life is way more fun." He said, holding up his index finger that he had used as a gun to Popka's head,
"... I'm worried Guntz, not only about your mental health but your reputation, why's everyone so scared of you when you act like a normal jerky boy?"
"Well, the doctor said that as long as I stay in this state I don't legally have ADHD, and my parole officer said that as long as I don't leave this state that I'm not legally a wanted fugitive,"
"Guntz," I glare at him.
"What? who gives two shits about what I do? I'm awsome, end of story, people can be jealous all they want," He drones out. And I grin at that- "I'm back off to class."
Ah, so Guntz is vain to the ends of the galaxy and past the cordinates of star command- and I'm kinda embarresed to have just made a Toystory refference- but I guess I suck~ end of story.
Now I turn around- "Why are you wearing a hoodie!? it's eighty degrees out here!"
"That's what the goverment wants you to think."
