Welcome to My World
Kayo
Chapter VIII: Oh Snap!
The door opened wider to reveal a short teenager with blazing crimson hair. Ron Dorslau. What was he doing in Shawn's house? The glint in his eye only ignited fear in Shawn. He had another reason to be afraid as well. Ron had Legolas' knives and was holding them at Chloe's back. Shawn immediately stepped back from the door, feeling the need to flat out run away right then and there. Ron's voice, however, stopped this urge.
"You even try to run away, and Chloe and your little sister will be severed in half." Shawn felt his heart starting to beat faster. Beads of sweat formed on his forehead. What was he going to do? This psycho was threatening the people he cared about. Licking his lips, he tried to say something, but nothing would come out.
"I'm sure you're wondering why I'm at your house, but shouldn't we take this inside, away from prying eyes?"
How about no, prying eyes are good. Prying eyes call the police when they see girls being held hostage by knifes… Shawn nodded his head nonetheless and walked into his house, slowly passing by Chloe and Megan with a sympathetic look. Megan had tears flowing down her cheeks, and Chloe was too scared to move or react to anything. Absent mindedly, Shawn thought, there is a way to shut Chloe up. Note the use of sharp objects. This thought was immediately dismissed when the two girls were thrown at him.
They landed on the floor with a thud as Ron pointed the Elven Blades of Doom directly at them. Megan clung to Shawn's shirt as Ron kicked the door closed with his foot. Eyeing his hostages, he made sure none of them were going to play some sort of cheap hero-act. Finally he spoke.
"I find it amusing how in Middle School, you and Jared would beat me up almost everyday and throw rocks at me. Now that I'm in control, you seem to be the one cringing in fear…How does it feel, Shawn? How does it feel to not be able to control a situation; one where you're going to be hurt? Not fun, is it, Shawn?" He laughed. Shawn deduced Ron had possibly gone insane. "No, I haven't gone insane. I can tell by that look in your eye that you thought that, right? Oh no no no, it is not I that has done anything wrong, it is you!"
Done anything wrong?? Holding people hostage can be considered doing something wrong. Or making a little girl cry, that's a no-no. Or how about contemplating how to skewer three people using two knives…DEFINITELY NOT GOOD! Oh wait, I did something wrong? Shawn could only guess what Ron meant by this. What had he done wrong? Well, if you counted the whole incident in Middle School where me and Jared terrorized him. But that was years ago! He wouldn't hold a grudge…would he?
While Shawn's whole battle of conscience went on, Ron had decided to let Shawn ponder what exactly he had done. Taking a seat on the couch, he relaxed a bit and turned on the tv. "El should be here soon, with a present for me. Hopefully then, Shawn, you'll realize your wrongdoing…"
{to the meow mix tune} Vague vague vague vague…
~*~
What exactly do you mean? Legolas had long since jumped down from his perch, and was demanding an explanation by the man in black.
The man in black stepped closer to Legolas. You must know, you weren't sent here just for fun. There were ulterior motives with sending you out of Middle Earth. Or didn't you know? Legolas was confused. What did he mean by this? He was taken out of his world for a reason? By who? What did this man know that he didn't??
Tell me! What am I doing here, if you know so much. The man in black started circling around the Elf. A hand hidden behind him, he replied with a smirk,
I wouldn't want to ruin the surprise now, would I? Before Legolas had time to react, the man in black pulled out what seemed to be a small black box. The next thing he knew, Legolas was lying on the ground, moaning in pain. Waves of heat coursed through his body, his breath came in quick pants, and the world seemed to spin in front of his eyes.
"Tua…" (Help) Legolas moaned before unconsciousness enveloped him. The man in black walked around the unmoving Elf, making sure his prey was completely out cold. Resolving that the Elf was indeed unconscious, the man in black took out a silver cell phone and pressed speed dial.
~*~
Ron almost jumped off the couch when the phone rang. That wasn't expected. El was only supposed to call him when the mission was complete. How did he even know Shawn's number? Shrugging it off, he jumped off the couch, keeping one of the blades of doom at his side. Shawn and company were still sitting backed up against a wall, away from the door, but near the bathroom. Not like they were going to try anything stupid. Ron soon learned that Shawn didn't have caller ID, but answered it anyway. Maybe it was El calling about the mission.
"Hello?" An ear-piercing girl started to yell into the phone, so loud that even Shawn and Chloe could hear.
"YOU'RE GAY?!? SHAWN MICHAEL STAR! HOW DARE YOU DATE ME AND NOT ENLIGHTEN ME OF THIS! I HATE YOU! HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME?!?"
Shawn's face went pale…Nina…Jared must have shown Nina the playback of him and Legolas walking together…arm-in-arm…He mentally kicked himself. From this day forward, never again will I touch a guy! Ron looked at Shawn quizzically, almost at the verge of laughing. His nemesis, liking the boys? The thought made Ron laugh. As the raging girl on the other end continued to rant, Ron interrupted in an even louder voice,
"While this information is quite intriguing, Shawn is otherwise occupied right now…with several men to boot. Sorry bout that hunny, but he has previous appointments. Now if you don't mind, shut the hell up and get over yourself!!!" The distinct click meant the conversation was over.
Shawn looked at Ron with total fear. What the hell just happened? Why did he tell Nina he was with several guys?!? Anger boiled in him. Who the hell did he think he was?!? Nina was *his* girlfriend, and the one to tell her whether he was gay or not should've been *him*, not his kidnapper!! Jumping to his feet, he stomped over to where Ron had hung up the phone.
"Who the hell do you think you are?!" He said, pushing Ron backwards, which in itself, wasn't a good idea.
Ron pulled the knife forward from his belt and flashed it at Shawn. "Who do you think *you* are?" Waving the knife at Shawn's face, he began again. "I don't think you're the one in control here. Or do you actually have a sword hidden in those pants of yours? Hmm? I don't think so. So shut up and sit down."
Sit down…or run to kitchen and grab a knife and duel like in the movies…Sit down…or duel…Shawn couldn't make up his mind, and Ron was becoming inpatient. Just as he was about to gut the poor hero of our story, the phone rang again. "What?!"
"Sorry to disturb you, but I thought you should know, I'll be at Star's house, with Legolas of course." Ron sighed and let his guard down for a second.
"Finally! Just make sure no one sees the body."
Body? What did Ron mean by that? Who's body? Who was on the phone? And damn his lack of caller ID. Noticing that Ron's knife had loosened from his hand, Shawn made a mad dash to the couch, where the twin knife lay dormant.
Ron saw Shawn's movements on a second too late. Soon, they were both pointing a knife at each other. Shawn had never picked up any kind of big sharp metal object before, and his hand was shaking from not only the weight, but from the nervousness he was experiencing. If he was actually going to try to fight this guy, with a knife no less, he was going to die a very painful death.
"Oh and look, you've decided to play the hero again." Again? What does that mean? "I'm sorry to disappoint you, but this act won't live long…and neither will you!" Ron rushed forward, blade pointed at Shawn's head. Shawn tried to dodge to the side, receiving a knick from the tip of Ron's blade on his temple. He landed on the coffee table and stood up as quickly as he could. Ron was already preparing for the next attack.
Shawn swung his knife down as Ron's was thrust forward towards his abdomen. The knives were pinned under the boy's weight, and they were locked in a staring contest on top of the coffee table. Shawn's heart was beating way too fast, as adrenaline was pumped into his veins. Must end this as fast as I can…if I can! With a sudden burst of energy, Ron threw his knife up and they were both thrown backwards.
No longer battling on the table, they circled around it, trying to figure out each other's weak points. All in all, Shawn was in himself a weak point. He didn't know how to parry, how to defend, how to make the clingy noise with the sword…He might as well have been a lifeless dummy standing there while others poked him with sticks or used him as a crash test dummy.
Megan and Chloe were trying to stay out of the way, and succeeding in the sense no one was paying attention to them…which gave Chloe an idea. As Ron and Shawn continued to circle each other, she waited for Ron's back to be turned and silently crept towards the bathroom and opened the door. She and Megan crawled through and closed it just as Ron was looking back their way, though the fight was at the front of his mind at the moment.
Chloe started lifting up the window and thanking god that they were on the first floor of the house. As the screen went up, Megan went out. The drop wasn't that bad, considering that it was into a bush, and Chloe was soon to follow. Maybe their escape could lead to helping Shawn. She took Megan's hand and ran to her house, conveniently down the street. "Hang in there Shawn," whispered Chloe to herself. Maybe she would find Legolas on her way.
A man holding the body of a blond-haired Elf answered her prayers, in a way. Sure she had found Legolas, but the guy holding him didn't look too friendly, especially in the way he was now pointing a gun at them…
"Oh snap…"
tbc…
Responses to Reviews:
namarie2legolas: oh wow, I opened my email and saw like 6 new emails and they were all from you! ^_^ Made me soo happy that I decided to write a chapter today! Thank you so much!! In a way I'm using Sindarin. If I can't find the word, I use Quenya, and the tenses and grammar are all off. So let's just say, it's Kayo-Sindarin, lol. And pepperoni pizza? How do you get pepperoni pizza out of this? I don't think I'll even know, lol. Thanks a bunch for inspiring me to get off my lazy ass!!
Dreastrifer: Yay! I saw you updated, but of course, I didn't get to read it for several days cos ff.net was down. Damn Fluffy and Morris. And if you had stolen the toilet paper from the Phoenix airport, we could've used it to tie Legolas to a tree in your backyard. "If you don't use the cranberry soap, you are tied to the tree for the night!!" ^-^' I need to work on my sense of humor…And more Megan cuteness to come (though she didn't have a part this chapter really)
Blume: O_o well now, that was more information than I needed. Nearly fell out of my chair on that one, lol. But uh, ya, Shawn didn't know that, and now he's going to be going to your house right now as Nina slaps him and gives him the whole you don't love me speech while he tries desperately to tell her that he does he just wants more options, and ya, I'm taking this out of proportion! Thanks for the review!
Josh: look! A brand new chapter! One that doesn't have a single thing to do with the original! Aren't you proud?! Hey, how about we go see Pirates of the Caribbean, lol, SEPARATE! Ahh, Jack Sparrow. So much better at the sword than Orlando, no matter what you say! And you know who the man in black is you goober.
Erikalya Arvanesse: Hmm…it would be very strange if Pippin showed up, but if he did, then there would be questions to where Merry is (since they're conjoined at the hip) and then the world might explode from an over limit of Tolkien characters in it! AHH! Lol, and yes, I should write more…
tamara: heehee, well, you don't really know who's talking to Legolas, YET. Those who read the original version of this know, cos I love him with all my heart, even though he's kinda evil. But ya, you'll find out probably next chapter. More insanity to come!
And there you have it. And of course, just as I'm about to finish, ff.net goes on the fritz. DAMN YOU FLUFFY! The MEGs strike again. (inside jokes) Anyway, off to write another fanfic totally unrelated to this! lol, and I know what you're all saying, you haven't finished this one yet! But I have like 5 fics on my comp that I just start and don't end. But rest assured, I will end this! Review and I update quicker! 3 3 3
