Chapter 9: Party Crashers
- 2004 -
"Well, well, well. Look who's all here." A cold female voice calls out.
All the chipmunk vampires, but Simon, scowl knowing who the owner of that voice is.
"Hello Mary. It's a pleasure seeing you all of you again." Simon chimes as he notices the rest of the Vampire Cult members trailing behind the human female vampire.
"Speak for yourself." Brittany growled under her breath, giving a glare at Simon.
Simon shot the mouthy chipette a look before turning back up at the group of Vampires that just walked in.
Two male chipmunks and two male humans stand in their dark Goth outfits. One human is a Korean man; the other human male is a Caucasian with brown hair and a goat-T. Each of the males wears torn shirts, and bares a tattoo of mostly skulls and death of some sorts down their arms. These four males take great pride in wearing piercing over their eyebrows, noses, and all up their ears. The human male with the goat-T even has a small silver chain attached from one of his ears to his nose earring.
The two female chipmunks stand close beside the boys. Just like the boys, both Chipettes also have a Gothic look on, but in a skimpier fashion. The curly redhead chipette wears a tattoo of a sword with veins wrapped around it on her upper left arm. Her top is nothing but a see-through mesh mini top and a black bra. She has on a short black mini skirt with a gold thin chain dangling loosely around her hips. To complete her outfit, the redheaded chipette is wearing platform spiked-heal boots that reach half way up her thighs.
Beside the redhead stands another chipette with long blond hair pinned up in a banana clip. On her face, she has on a pair of square shaped purple glasses. Just under her right shoulder is a tattoo band of two veins, wrapped around her upper arm. Her top is very loose and seems to be rather teasing as it drapes down, just barely covering each of her breasts. She has on a very short and very tight pair of black jean shorts. Her G-string underwear is showing just above slightly of her jean shorts. The spiky-heal boots she wears are much shorter and hang loosely around the ankles. Both Chipettes have shinny belly button earrings.
Jeff smiles from the other side of the bar as he cleans off another wine glass. Even though he is a proud member of this cult, he is in his work uniform now.
"Come, pull up a chair and sit with us." The wise, bespectacled chipmunk offered.
"Thanks." Mary nodded with a wide mischievous grin. Her white fangs are sharp, but capture the light beautifully. If she were mortal, Mary would make the perfect model or movie star. Regardless of her Goth entire, she still has a professional, classy look as she always has from the moment Simon and the others first met her.
"We're sorry that we came a little late, Simon, but we had a situation with another company we keep. If you catch my drift…" The human Vampiress purred, sitting down beside the speckled wearing chipmunk.
"Yes, I believe I do." Simon nodded.
"Also, we stumbled onto a snag with one of little experiments. The darn thing ended up being hurled over a cliff." The smaller Vampire chipmunk with a pierced left eyebrow shrugged. Brian focused his crazy hazel brown eyes down at Brittany, whom has been giving him a wary glare ever since the Cult walked into the room. She finally looked away. Even for a Vampire this chipmunk is scary at times.
"Still can't seem to find a solution that will enable Vampires to walk in direct sunlight?" Simon asked.
"Naw, you know how it is. Once you think you might have something, the darn thing will find a way to self-destruct in your face." The human Vampire with the goat-T, Rob replies.
"The last experiment we tried to combine garlic with sunflower seeds in hopes that it could counter attack each other. Needless to say that didn't quit work either." The Asian Vampire, Mark said, shaking his head.
"Gee, who's the genius that thought up that brain fart?" Alvin chuckles under his breath. Brittany, sitting close to him, joins in with a giggle.
Tom, the taller, crystal blue eyed Vampire Chipmunk, glares down at the spunky vampire-munk. He always thought of Alvin to be an out-of-control young vampire. There hasn't been a night that went by that Tom hoped their plan succeeded in destroying this punk chipmunk vamp along with Brittany and Jeanette.
Alvin is able to sense the stinging of Tom's eerie stare piercing in the back of his head. He dares not give the dark chipmunk the satisfaction of seeing the nervousness in his eyes. Instead, Alvin keeps his back to him as he continues to sip the blood wine from his glass.
Without taking his eyes off Alvin, Tom grabs a chair and slides it over to the table. He decides to sit right beside Alvin in order to cause more discomfort for the young Chipmunk Vamp. The game seems to be working. Alvin tries to inch closer to Brittany without giving away his nervous behavior.
"One would think bygones would be bygones. I guess that is not the case here." The redheaded Vampire Chipette growled.
"Yeah," a blond Chipette says.
Renee and Brenda both sandwich Jeanette. They bring their faces right up to her cheeks, almost to the point of either kissing them, or biting them. Brenda gently places her right hand onto Jeanette's left shoulder, almost like she hugging her. Renee reaches up to tenderly stroke Jeanette's cheek and chin with her cold pale fingers. This most certainly has Jeanette feeling very uncomfortable.
"S-Simon..." The brunette chipette said in a quiver. She begins to bare her teeth with a low growl at the two Vampiress Chipettes in order to express her displeasure of them being so close to her.
"Now ladies," Simon coos, "you two know that Jeanette is mine." He says carefully pushing Renee aside and wrapping his arm around Jeanette's shoulders.
"It's a shame. She would have made a fine play thing for us." Brenda says in a slightly disappointed tone. She playfully twirls her long ponytail blond hair around her finger.
"I'm sure you two have enough play things already." Jeanette slightly growled, sliding closer to Simon.
"I suppose you are right. We are somewhat spoiled when it comes to having our play things." Renee admitted with a grin.
"Is there a point on why you have shown up? Is it because you wish to ruin our evening, or do you just like crashing parties?" Alvin rudely commented, as he got right to the point. It did not escape him that Simon had shot him another look.
"Really, I didn't think it would be a crime to visit some old friends." Mary narrowed her eyes down onto the rebellious Chipmunk Vampire.
"Ignore him, Mary. Neither him nor Brittany appreciate the sacrifice you have made by allowing us to have a private gathering in your club." Simon quickly excused his friends. This time Brittany was the one that shot him a look.
"Thank you, Simon." Mary said with a nod. "You know it is such a shame that you hadn't taken up our offer to join us when you had the chance." She added, reflecting back a few centuries.
"Like I've already mentioned; I have a family." He says, smiling at Brittany, Alvin, and especially Jeanette. Each one smiles back with a sense of pride.
"It would appear that things still have not changed much with you either." The human Vampiress commented with a hint of disappointment.
"No. I suppose they don't." Simon agrees with a smirk.
The party drifts into an awkward silence as each of the Vampires, both chipmunks and humans sip their blood wine - their minds muddling over the past.
