Do You Want A Real Remy?

Chapter 1

      Suni sighed as she shut the door and flopped on her bed. *God save me from the goddamn climate, * she thought, closing her eyes in relief as the cool air of the air-conditioning hit her full blast. She groaned and got up to take a bath. * Black T-shirt, blue tights, underclothes, towel…… bathroom here I come. * She walked into her bathroom, only to hear a loud "Suni!!!"

* Awww, crap….not now….* "Yes Mom?!? "

"You're supposed to send G to school for his scout camp!"

* Oh, no!! Sigh…* "Yes Mom…"

"And don't forget to go shopping, 'cause there's no meat left in the house!"

"WHAT!?!"

"Your sister had a party last night when you were at Karen's house!"

* Damn that sister of mine….. * " When does G have to leave?"

"In ten minutes time!"

* Why me? God, I HATE being chauffeur of the house…* "Okay Mom! Just lemme take a shower!"

"Hurry! And don't forget to wake me at three, okay?"

"Yes Mom!"

Suni hit the showers at full speed.

" Suni, can you buy me a Pokemon deck?"

"G, you already have five."

"But this is the latest!"

"G, as much as you are my only brother, and subsequently of the same blood as I am, I am NOT getting you ANY sort of fool card deck."

" Please??? I promise I'll be good!"

"For what, two seconds?"

"I'll clean my room?!"

"Yeah, right. In my dreams."

"I'll study."

"Really?!"

"I promise!!! Look, if I don't get good grades, you can take them away, I swear."

"We'll see."

G leaned back onto the car seat as Suni drove the old Mazda down the lane. Her dark hair was damp, her black "Linkin Park" t-shirt and blue jeans were ever so slightly wet too. The nine-year old looked out of the window, watching the scenery whizzing by.

"G?"

" Yeah?"

"How long are you gonna be at camp?"

"For two weeks."

"God, is the house gonna be quiet or what…. Oh, by the way, where's Sum?"

G snorted as best he could, for a nine-year old. " She's staying with that chinko, Ho Beng for three weeks."

"G!!!!"

"What?"

"Don't be so insulting! Ho Beng is NOT a chinko! I swear, I'll tape your mouth of I ever hear anything like that from you again, you hear?"

"Okay."

Suni sighed and closed her eyes momentarily before focusing on the road. Much to her relief, G's school was right in front.

" Here you go G. See you at four."

"Bye!"

        Watching the boy run towards his friends in the school, Suni sighed. * Damn, that kid's innocent. Ten to one he didn't even know what 'chinko' meant. Poor little guy. * She reversed out and drove to TMC's grocery store.

          Suni grunted as she finished placing the last bag into the car boot. * I wonder when these people will wake up and stop using plastic bags for packaging their goods. Stupid people don't realize plastic isn't biodegradable. * She shut the car boot and strolled back to the supermarket, pushing the trolley in front of her. Placing the trolley with the others, she was about to turn away when she saw a little girl watching her from a corner. She looked at the girl, and smiled. The girl wore a frilly blue dress and had bouncy blond curls the color of honey. Suni walked and crouched down beside her.

"Hi," she said quietly. " You lost, kiddo?"  

The little girl smiled at her. "No."

Suni blinked. "Where's your mommy?"

"I came alone. Do you like the X-Men?" the child asked suddenly.

Suni smiled. "Yeah, I like the X-Men. Do you?"

"Yeah. I watch the cartoons. What character do you like best?"

"Well, I like Gambit the most, but I also like Wolverine and Storm."

The little girl's eyes widened, and she asked eagerly, "Do you really like Remy?"

"Well, yeah." Suni smiled. "You like him too?"

"Yeah. Do you want a real Remy?"

Suni smiled again. *God, this kid was cute. * "Yeah, I'd like to have one."

"Give me your hand."

Suni looked startled, but held out her hand to the girl. "And what are you…" She didn't get to finish, for the girl pressed a bag into her hand and ran off. "Hey kid!!! Kid, wait!!" she yelled, but the girl had disappeared into the crowd. Suni frowned. *That was some weird kid, * she thought, then walked back to the car.

     Inside, she opened the bag, and took out a doll. She stared at it. * Man, this looks exactly like Remy Lebeau, * she thought, holding it up. The red hair, the red-on-black eyes, the body armor, the trench coat and even the little cards that were in his hand looked incredibly real. *Cool…. A Remy LeBeau doll. Wonder why the kid gave it to me, though. * She put the doll beside her and drove home.

It was ten-thirty at night when Suni finally re-entered her room. Her room was simple, the walls painted a soft cream. The furniture inside was made of wood, and completed jigsaw puzzles were beside posters of rock bands on the walls. Sighing, Suni placed her new Remy doll on her table, and went to change into her night clothes. Switching on the air-condition and switching off the light, she curled up into bed. Minutes passed, and she found herself unable to sleep, her thoughts wandering towards the Remy doll on her table. * Wonder what it's like to sleep with a Remy doll…* she thought, and grinned to herself. * Well, nothing ventured, nothing gained. * She grabbed the Remy doll of her desk and cuddled to it before going to sleep.

In a silent void in time, someone smiled coldly. It has begun. * All the world is a stage…*
