~Checkmate~

oOo

INSAN(E) and Willy-nilly were chanting an old ritual, their voices echoed around the room. Garrett shivered in fright, not realizing he was squeezing Okia's arm.

"Let me go. You're shaking me."

Garrett now noticed and he let go. Okia glared at the short one. He gulped and looked at Jem Verc, who stood tall, poor Garry felt like an ant. Antarris laughed as he pestered Nagrom, who was cursing up a storm.

" Venite caveis cinis de morte. Surgite, surgite, et ostende te ante me! (Come, come out of the dying ashes of cages. Rise, rise and reveal yourself before me!) Liber a vinculis et catenis terminantem tua fortis supplicium! (Be free from your strong bounding chains of imprisonment and punishment!) Tua mala sunt, torqueri Fusce figuris stabit. Plenam veneni et oculi vestri vindictam! (Your forms of evil, twisted, dark, figures will stand. Your eyes will be full of venom and revenge!) MANUFESTO, pando, pando! (SHOW, REVEAL, REVEAL!)"

Insan(e), Willy-nilly said it once more, everyone in the room repeated. The room was filled with dark shadows, crossing the walls and shifting into figures. Everyone stopped and listened, two figures oozed out of the castle's marbled floors. It slowly shifted, they were twisting their bodies to get in their original, human forms.

One of them looked like Alfred, except, his eyes were red and he carried a bat with nails. The other, looked like Matthew except he had a cigarette in his mouth. He had a bored expression and he held a bloody hockey stick. Al smirked until he looked at himself,

"Why aren't I FULLY human?!" He growled at his transparent, shadow-like, body.

Insane sighed and snapped,

"I have not yet captured your stupid 1p! self! Don't you dare disrespect your king!"

Oliver giggled, he hadn't seen Al and Matt for a very long time.

"Look, It's freckled-freak," Al grumbled as he gestured at the insane brit.

Oliver frowned and cried,

"I, am NOT A FREAK!"

Adrian snarled,

"We don't need your dumb-ass comments, Sex-crazed, vegetarian, fucking bastard! WE COULD JUST SENT YOU BACK IN THE DARK LIMBO WHERE WE SUMMONED YOU FROM!"

Al rose his bat,

"You want ta' fight, zombie, dead-freak?!"

"Show me what you got, you cowardly, idiot, sorry-for an excuse-of a 2p!"

Insan(e) spat,

"STOP, THE BOTH OF YOU!" The said cannibal rose a dagger at the both of the 2p!s.

Matt rolled his eyes and waved his hockey stick. He just wanted to get this over with,

"Why the hell are we, here? King, just tell us what we need to do.. please."

Insan(e) giggled, making Al roll his eyes in disgust.

"Simple, I want you to go to the human realm... or is that too hard for you? kururururu!~"

Al rose his bat, "Nah, that's too easy..."

Matt thought to himself,

'Too much confidence...'

oOo

Alfred woke up that morning, he felt like a train ran him over. He looked to his alarm and it blared. He groaned and covered his head with his Batman covers. DC comics and a Halo 4 video game was all sprawled over the floor. His clothes were on his dresser, Arthur called his room: A Pigsty.

"Mattie... turn off the alarm.. would ya'?"

silence...

"Mattie?" The american peered over his blanket to see that his twin brother's bed was empty.

"So... last night wasn't a dream.." He sighed and slammed his alarm. He dragged himself to his kitchen to see, Zitlaly cooking huevos con jamon (Eggs with ham).

"Hey.."

"Hola..."

They were silent for a long time, until the mexican sighed,

"I hope nothing bad happened to mi otro hermano.."

Alfred looked towards the ceiling as if his words were scrawled onto it.

"I miss him..."

Zitlaly came over and placed his plate in front of him,

"Well.. we can pray for him, mi amigo.."

Alfred nodded & began to eat.

Then, the phone rang.

"I'll go get it!" Zitlally walked to the phone and answered it,

"Hola, it's Zitlally!"

There was an uncomfortable pause. Zitlally nodded,

"Francis... he's not well... Gilbert?! GIVE THE PHONE BACK TO FRANCIS! Fine.. I'll talk with you... no.. he can't go... no... he's not sad.. not that I can see..."

'They're talking about me Freedom..' the american hardly realized he held his stuffed eagle plush.

'They don't know how I'll react for a whole week without Arthur o-or Mattie around...'

The american pressed his ear to the eagle's beak.

'What's that, Freedom? Someone's coming to.. hurt me? No.. they already took Arty and my bro away from me. WHAT DO THEY WANT?!'

The eagle just stared on,

'Wait... they want me to be evil? Well, HA! It's gonna take more than kidnapping me!'

The eagle said nothing more, he told him everything he knew.

Zitlally slammed the phone down, she wiped her forehead,

"Hey.. Alfred?"

"Hmm..?" The blonde didn't look at her, he just looked up.

"Want to go... to Hot Topic and buy some Avengers' T-shirts?"

The blonde smiled,

"Si!"

Zitlally put his empty plate into the sink,

"Let's dress up!"

Alfred grinned, and ran up the stairs, toy in hand.

Zitlally went to her guestroom, she looked to her plush eagle, it looked like Freedom but he had a snake in his mouth, his wings sprouted as if he was going to fly. The mexican hugged the plush,

'I'm going somewhere... don't leave the room..'

Then with that, she changed and met up with Alfred in the living room.

"We're going?"

"Yep! VAMANOS!"

The two close relatives walked out the door.

[a/n] I'm so it's soooo short but I just wanted to let you know:

I'M AWAKE & I'M ALIVEEE! (Song reference..)

Hasta la pasta! May you have a VERY merry Christmas!
