It's a me, Mario

Get out of here loser, this is my story!

Various brutal fighting noises later…

So, after a month of torture trying to get some guys on dA to loan me their characters, I've finally got something to work with for the story. I'm going to be introducing them in the chapter

I know this is kinda redundant and everything, but uh… I do not own District 9; I do own my own O/Cs, and the new guys belong to Nash Clight and Alien Guardian on dA (click on the Homepage button on my Profile page)

So, enjoy

Chris slowly opened his eyes the following morning. There was no sound of rain on the window, which meant that the storm had blown over.

Everyone else was still asleep in the cramped positions they were in under the bed sheets. Neil was curling up, his legs slightly locking themselves into Chris'. Vaxius and Vadim were both sleeping on his strong chest. Oliver had wrapped himself around Neil, hid body moving ever so slightly with every breath Neil took.

Slowly, everyone woke up. Neil smiled ever slightly as he looked straight into Chris' eyes, the same compassionate, understanding, and caring eyes he'd learned to love most about him. They leaned forward and kissed each other before realizing that sleeping the way they had last night had left them feeling stiff.

*Oh, my god, this was the best slash worst decision I've ever had* Neil moaned as they struggled to shift their weight back to how you're supposed to sleep on a bed.

The kids got out of bed and went downstairs, leaving the older Poleepkwa lying in bed until they felt better. This time, it was Chris who laid himself across Neil's chest, allowing Neil to hold him close. All too soon, the pain they had felt died off, forcing them to get up change, and head downstairs. When they reached the dining room however, they heard a human voice that they didn't recognize.

"…and right as we got out, I told the guys to stop harassing Gabriel here or else I was going to pop some caps in their asses. And that was how I first met Gabriel and Ron" it was saying.

Confused about what was going on, Neil and Chris opened the door. Everyone else except Torri was already there, along with a young man and two Poleepkwa they haven't seen before. The human looked about 5'9, medium build, had long brown hair, brown eyes, and was wearing a simple grey t-shirt along with some khaki shorts and a pair of heavy-duty hiving boots.

The Poleepkwa that was affectionately curling up next to him roughly looked 7'5/7'6 and had a sort of vibrant green shell and sapphire blue eyes. The mesh of clothes he was wearing looked so ridiculous that it seemed like he was wearing skin-tight spandex. He was wearing what appeared to be a purple and black sweater-vest with a pocket protector over a white shirt and tie. He was also wearing black pants with some sort of torn white leather wrapped.

The Poleepkwa that was sitting next to Wikus was by far the strangest of the newcomers. He was definitely 7'8 and was a murky green with a dark bluish tinge over his bare chest and around his purple eyes. He was wearing light tan pants and had a black sports watch on his left wrist. Yet all of this paled in comparison to the numerous piercings on his shoulders and face.

When Neil and Chris entered the room, the decked out Poleepkwa got up, his eyes narrowing.

*Chris* he said in a sort of low baritone.

*Ron* Chris muttered.

Everyone wasn't surprised by the cold reception these two were giving each other. It was common knowledge from Chris' old blog that the both of them had once been allies in Pro Forma, a poleepkwan terrorist group that used questionable tactics to try and take the rights they felt they deserved. It was not unnatural that Ron and Chris didn't see eye to eye since Chris pretty much left after four days of agreeing with them.

*Uh… welcome back to Earth* Ron said.

*Thanks* Chris said. *So, uh… how's Pro Forma going?*

*I don't know what's going on with them* Ron shrugged. *I quit*

*When did you quit* Chris asked.

*Shortly after you did* Ron shrugged. *You were right: killing innocent people was too much. Besides, I didn't want to think about what would happen to Gabriel if I died*.

*Uh, can someone please tell me what's going on here* Neil asked.

"I can answer that" The young man said as he got up.

He and the Poleepkwa supposedly called Gabriel crossed the dining room and shook Neil and Chris' hands.

"Hello, I'm Shawn O' Kane" he said. "This is my love, Gabriel Mumper, and is father, Ronald".

"Wait, you and Gabriel are together" Neil asked.

"Yes. We are" Shawn said.

"Oh, wow, congratulations" Neil said.

"Thanks" Shawn said. "You don't have to tell me who you are. Everyone else already told me about you, especially about the part that you guys love each other and are taking part in Poleepkwana".

"Wow" Neil said.

*We were planning on having a Poleepkwana ceremony as well* Gabriel said. *Unfortunately, we just moved out here so we haven't had much of a chance to really plan it or anything*.

*We haven't really had the chance to plan ours either* Chris said. *We've been a little… preoccupied lately*.

*Preoccupied by what* Ron asked. *If you guys really love each other, then you would've started planning by now*.

At that moment, the dining room door opened and Torri came in

"What's with all the new voices, guys" she asked the moment she came in.

Almost immediately, Ronald started blushing, or as close to what a Poleepkwa would call blushing. Torri noticed this.

"Uh… who are you" she asked.

"Ah, Torri, there you are" Neil said. "I'd like you to meet some new friends of mine. This is Ronald, his son Gabriel, and his friend Shawn. Guys, this is my recently discovered sister, Victoria Clearcrest".

"Nice to meet you all" Torri said.

"So what are you up to" Johnny asked.

"Ah, just going out on the town" Torri shrugged. "Hey, you guys wanna come with".

"Sure" Shawn nodded. "You coming Ron? Ron?"

Ronald hadn't said anything for a while. In fact, he hadn't taken his eyes off Torri since she walked in. he just stood there with some sort of glazed look on his face.

*You ok dude* Neil asked.

Rob made no attempt to even seem like he even heard him.

"Okay…well, I'll just go get the limo ready" Torri said uncertainly.

*Great. I'll go with you* Ron said, leading Neil and Johnny's sister out the door.

Everyone else just stared at the door, unable to comprehend what just happened. Had Robert Mumper seriously help Torri get to the limo ready. Neil turned to look at Gabriel.

*Dude, what the Hell is going on* he asked.

*I have no idea* Gabriel gasped. *This situation is more confusing now than it was when we first got here*.

Meanwhile…

*…real reason I joined Pro Forma in the first place was to protect Gabriel from MNU* Ron was saying.

While they were waiting for the limo driver sift through the mansion to find the keys, Ronald and Torri had started up a conversation when Torri asked him why he joined Pro Forma.

*When I had first heard there was a group of Poleepkwa fighting for our rights, I immediately signed up" he went on. *The first few years were the happiest I felt at that point. I had even managed to get arrested by a few of MNU's goons that had had tried to stop our protests, but it was worth it*.

Torri let out a small gasp, but didn't say anything.

*After a while, Pro Forma started getting more and more aggressive* Ronald continued. *At the point, I began to worry about what I was getting myself into. Even Gabriel was starting to become worried about my safety, and he was already living on his own*.

"That must've been awful" Torri whispered.

*It was* Ron said. *When Chris told everyone that innocent civilians had died in a café explosion the night he left, I became scared. I began wondering if I would die in one of those explosions. So after the meeting I asked Chris why he left. He said he had to put his son first and he couldn't risk him being left alone if he died. I became convinced then. About a week later, I told Pro Forma that I couldn't take it anymore and left*.

Torri couldn't handle it anymore. She began crying softly into her hands. Ron noticed this and silently pulled her into a hug. At that point, the slightly open door opened wider, revealing the rest of the group. Ron saw them and quickly let go, allowing Torri to have an uninterrupted view of the door.

*How much did you guys hear* Ron asked nervously.

*Enough* Gabriel said as he and Shawn ran forward to hug them both.

*So that's what you were worried about* Chris said as he, Neil, and the kids came up and joined in.

"And here I thought I had problems, man" Wikus muttered as he, Johnny and Tania came forward and hugged everyone else.

The whole group was crying the whole time. They would not stop caring about how much sadness Ron had gone through all those years ago.

"I found the keys" The driver called through the door, completely oblivious to what was happening.

Slowly, everyone began to break from the hug as the driver came out and noticed how upset the group was.

"Did I miss something here" he asked.

"Not really" Johnny said, wiping away the rest of his tears.

Ron had his arm around Torri, who was holding on to his hand like it was a personal treasure. She looked up to see him smiling down at him. She smiled back at him.

Everyone then got into the limo to go have some fun. Wikus and Tania sat facing forward, with Vaxius and Vadim sitting on their laps. Chris and Neil sat next to each other, with Oliver sitting in between them, purring as he cuddled in between his father and his closest friend. Gabriel and Shawn sat with Johnny, discussing how touching it was that Ron went through so much just to protect Gabriel. Ron and Torri sat at the end, and they were intertwined so close that it was hard to tell whose body belonged to whom.

They spent most of the morning at the mall Johnny took Neil and his original friends too when the first got here. Tomorrow happened to be Shawn's birthday, which meant that not only did they have to get presents for him, but for Neil and Johnny as well, whose birthday was two days after his. They split up into groups to go search. Wikus went off with Chris and Ron, Checking out the northern of the mall. Tania grouped with Torri, Vaxius, and Vadim. Shawn and Gabriel went off together to check out a cheesecake shop, which left the "Twinsies" with Oliver.

They checked out several shops, buying several items that Shawn had asked them to buy for his birthday. Once everyone made their way back to the limo, they put the various bags in the trunk and got in. It was then off to a bakery that had been supplying birthday cakes to Johnny for years ever since Johnny's uncle bailed them out. After ordering two extravagant cakes to be delivered to the mansion, they went back and started planning the parties. Shawn wanted a normal party for his, while Johnny, who always liked going places, said he was taking the group somewhere special, but didn't give any clue as to where they were going.

Wow, this was a tiring chapter to make. Hope you guys enjoy it

I found it kinda hard to write the scene where Ron was telling Torri about his tenure in Pro Forma, as it was so emotional, so if you guys start crying during that part, I don't blame ya

R&R plz

NITRO PSYCHO OUT!
