OTHERWORLD
I was very pleased with the review of the last chapter! I actually almost had someone in tears! I'm so happy
Now, if you are not an Offspring fan or you don't know who they are, this chapter may possibly confuse you. The Offspring is the band who did "Pretty Fly for a White Guy" and "Come Out And Play" some years back. They have recent hits at the moment that are getting radio and video play. Those would be "Hit That"(very interesting video with a blue guy chasing his big Great Dane dog) and "Can't Get my Head Around You." They also were the band at the Halloween dance in "Idle Hands" (Dexter (the singer) had the top of his head ripped off by a possessed hand.) If you like you can look them up and check them out. If you do, I recommend their official site where you can see them and the two videos I mentioned if you have QuickTime. There's a good picture of them on the banner at the top.
Also, the singer (Dexter Holland)either has or is very close to having a PhD in Molecular Biology(not to be confused with Micro Biology, I hear he gets picky about that...)and he was also Valedictorian in High School. Hence the nickname "Dexter."(His real name is Bryan) I have a scan of the Pacifica High School Graduation program that I got off a fan site. It's proof. Why do I mention this? Dexter's gonna be slamming Selene and using....more formal language rather than surfer talk(he grew up in Orange County...big surf spot....he surfs in the "Da Hui" video with Noodles...yeah....)
One last thing, if you check out my profile, my deviant page is my homepage link. That's where you can find my reference piccies of Sylas. The best one for the moment is called "Sylas vs. The Hit That Guy" and yes he's hitting the blue guy from the video I mentioned and the dog is staring at Sylas. I'll try to get a better reference of him on there soon. (Sorry about all the reading before the chapter! I promise it will be less next chapter!)
Chapter 2 - Some serious problems
Selene drives up to the mansion. Inside, The Offspring are jamming and the majority of the vampire crew is up in front of the stage, moshing and crowd surfing. Selene kicks the door in and enters. The Offspring stop playing and stare. Dexter looks over to Noodles and starts making comments about Selene.
"Hey, since when have skanky whores been allowed to crash mansion gigs, Noodles?"
"I dunno, Dexter, but she's REALLY PISSING ME OFF!!!"
"I think we should tell the bitch off with some VERBAL ABUSE!!!!"
"Hell yeah, Dex!! LET'S TEACH THE SLUT SOMETHING ABOUT CRASHING AN OFFSPRING CONCERT!!!"
"HELL YEAH!!!" shouts the whole band.
Selene gives The Offspring a death glare.
"I live here." she says to them, "and if I would've known that you guys would be your annoying selves then I wouldn't have allowed Erika to invite you here, let alone turn you into immortals...."
Noodles looks at Dexter who bares his fangs at Selene. She flips him off. He gives her the "Super Finger" (this is where you show your ring finger along with the middle finger) and grins. Selene flips him the arm. Noodles steps in and gets Dexter's attention.
"She has a point, Dex..."
"YOU'RE LETTING HER GET AWAY WITH CONCERT DISRUPTION!!!! SHE MUST BE JUDGED!!!!" (A/N: Deja Vu?)
"Calm down, Dex......."
"I could just tear my hair out!" says Dexter with his hands on his head.
"God forbid if that happens......" Selene adds.
"Oh I know! Fans would hate it!" Dexter states.
"I was being sarcastic........"
"Oh......."
"That PhD in MicroBiology doesn't do a whole lot for a punk rocker, now does it?" says Selene with her arms crossed.
"It's MOLECULAR Biology, WOMAN!!!" shouts Dexter.
"Is there a difference?" she asks.
"Don't get him started........" says Noodles, "Dex, let's continue with the concert."
"HELL YEAH!!!!" shouts Dexter.
The Offspring go back to playing and Selene makes her way through the mosh pit to get to the armory. She storms into the room and confronts Khan.
"We have some serious mother-fucking problems!!!" she screeches at him.
Khan stares at her. She slams the UV gun onto the table.
"Them shit-faced Lycans have super rounds!!! WHERE'D THEY GET THEM!!!!????" she shrieks.
Khan stares. Selene sighs.
"A civilian guy was fighting back against two lycans who were after him....this situation is getting very hairy. I'm not even sure that the guy was a human!" she says.
Khan tinkers with the UV rounds.
"Are you done with the daily bitching, yet?" he asks.
"NO!!!!" she screams, "I have one more thing!"
Khan looks up at her, anticipating something possibly important. She leans over, serious look on her face.
"THE FUCKING OFFSPRING ARE IN THIS HOUSE!!!!!!" she screams.
Outside.....in the mansion living space....
Dexter hears Selene screaming her complaints. He takes her words very seriously.
"BITCHY-SKANKY-SLORE'S GONNA BE BEHEADED TONIGHT!!!!!!" he screams running/jumping off the stage and running down the hall into the armory. (A/N: Slore = Slut/Whore(don't ask))
Noodles catches him as soon as he kicks in the armory door. He grabs Dexter's hair and causes him to stop dead in his tracks.
"Dexter, I hate to say it but the evil possessed hand wants your scalp...unless you leave the slore alone...." he says in Dexter's ear while letting go of the bleach blonde spikes.
Dexter whines but obeys and leaves the room....but not before Selene points and laughs at him. He runs over and jumps on top of the table then on top of her and attempts to behead her with a pen. Noodles grabs Dexter by the hair and hauls the screaming singer out of the room. Selene jumps up and on top of Dexter. Lucky for him, Noodles saw Selene coming and let go of his hair. Selene grabs him by the head and starts slamming him into a wall. Noodles watches (how nice...). Dexter comes up with some insane idea and smiles at her. He bitch-slaps her upside the head. She jumps into the air and lands behind him. Selene goes to karate chop him in the back of the head but as soon as she takes a stance, he falls on her and just lies there on top of her. (Dex is 6'2" and "built".....just to give you an idea.....)Selene kicks and screams and Dexter laughs. Noodles grabs him by the ankles and drags him off Selene. She gives Dexter the finger and he just laughs at her. He and Noodles get back on stage and start making jokes (A/N: They did this at the concert I went to....).
Kraven and crew come down the mansion stairs. Dexter looks up and winks at Erika, his partner in crime. She winks back. The crew fights its way through the mosh pit and enter the armory. Selene explains the whole ordeal with the Lycans and Sylas.
"I swear I heard an Ice Hockey game going down in the sewers!!" she states.
"You didn't SEE anything did you?!" asks Kraven.
"Look, unless I'm some kind of Psycho, I know what I heard and there could be hundreds of illegal hockey games going on down there!!!" Selene screams.
"I'll just let some idiot dumbass who doesn't know what they're doing go take care of it..." says Kraven, "GET GOING, SOREN!!!"
"Let me go." says Selene.
"No." says Kraven.
Outside the room, Dexter introduces the next song, "Hit That." Erika hears this and goes into rabid fangirl mode.
"OH MY GAWD I LOVE THIS FUCKING SONG!!!!" she screeches and runs out of the room and into the mosh pit.
Everyone stares. Selene leaves the room causing yet another fight with Dexter. He sees her as she's leaving the room and he makes a running jump over the mosh pit and attacks her....... while he sings "Hit That." She throws him through a wall and all is quiet. The entire mosh pit stands staring at Selene. She flips everyone off and leaves.
Selene stands in front of the mirror of Viktor and Marcus' chamber. The wall opens up revealing a window/door that allows the vampires to look in. Selene half expects Dexter to be waiting to jump her from out of nowhere (I wonder why...). Instead, he walks in with his hands in his pockets and a band-aid on his cheek (kinda like the rapper, Nelly). He stands behind her staring at the back of her head as if he could shoot death rays out of his eyes.
"What do you want, you psychotic 'Tard...." she growls.
"Blondie said that what's-his-face wouldn't want you spending hours looking at his thingymabob....." Dexter whispers in her ear.
"I knew you were a total 'Tard when it came to anything but Micro-"
"IT'S MOLECULAR BIOLOGY, YOU WET-HAIRED BITCH!!!!!"
"WHATEVER!!!!! Did you just say that I have wet hair?!"
"HELL YEAH!!! IT LOOKS WET EVERY TIME I SEE YOU!!!!"
"Gawd, you are a 'Tard....."
"I don't see you with any PhD's!!!"
"Just shut up...."
Erika walks in.
"Viktor wouldn't want you staring at his tomb for hours on end!" she says to Selene.
"Ha! That's what I was trying to say!" says Dexter.
"You told her what I told you?!" Erika shrieks.
"You didn't tell me that you didn't want me to tell her what you told me!" Dexter replies.
"I don't like to tell people what I'm going to do..." she says.
"Well then how do you expect me to know whether or not to repeat what you say to me?!" Dexter asks showing his fangs and his blue eyes going pale.
Erika looks up at Dexter to say something snotty and evil to him but gets a good look at him and smiles.
"You look very sexy like that, Dexter!" she says blushing.
"........women........." says Dexter looking over at Selene.
"Actually, that's just her......." says Selene, "Though....she is right about the sexy thing......"
Dexter stares at her.
"I'm kidding.......I have no idea what she sees in you........." says Selene.
"Thank god........" says Dexter looking back at Erika who giggles like a school girl.
"You look so young!!!" she says with a giggle.
"How old are you, anyway? 21?" asks Selene.
Dexter stares at Selene as if offended by the subject of his age being brought up. Erika looks at him anxiously.
"Why do you guys care?" he asks, seeming embarrassed.
"Cuz we wanna know if you're legal!!!" Erika screams.
"I'm curious...she wants to know if you're legal..." says Selene.
"Well.....I AM legal......." says Dexter.
"JUST TELL US HOW OLD YOU ARE!!!!!!" both girls scream.
Dexter stares at both girls wide-eyed, a fang sticks out on one side of his mouth. You'd expect him to be sweat-dropping if this was an Anime. He sighs and tries to look calm despite being scared out of his mind.
"I'm 37." he says to the age seekers.
"OH MY GAWD!!!!!!" shrieks Erika, "I thought you were 18 and like a super-genius with that PhD!"
"Well....they do call me Dexter......like the cartoon...." says Dexter.
"Oh-My-God!!!! Dexter's Lab!!!!" squeals Erika.
"That's not your real name is it...." says Selene.
Dexter shakes his head looking a little scared.
"Tell me what it is!" says Erika getting excited.
Dexter shakes his head again looking a bit scared.
"I'd rather not....go on the internet and find out....." he says.
Selene and Erika look at each other. They apparently never thought about the before. Dexter takes advantage of them being distracted and runs away. Selene and Erika pursue. Selene catches him and knocks him into a wall in the hallway. Dexter screams because he never saw them coming and getting slammed into a wall is not a painless thing. He falls to the floor, too freaked out to move and just stares at the two looking scared out of his mind.
"What is your real name, Holland?!" says Selene, a bit ticked.
"Noodles is gonna kick your ass!" he says to Selene.
Selene barely caught a word he said she narrows her eyes at him.
"NOODLES!!!!!! THE SLORE IS TRYING TO KILL ME!!!!!!" Dexter screams loud enough to wake the dead.
Selene grabs Dexter by the throat and lifts him about a foot of the ground and slams him into the wall.
"That sounds like a very good idea." she says to him.
Dexter's pale blue eyes go wide and he does the first thing he can think of.
"Look over there!" he says pointing down the hall.
Selene and Erika both look. Dexter kicks Selene in the head and she lets him go. He takes off in the other direction. He doesn't get far. Erika tackles him and rips a spike of hair off the back of his head. Dexter screams bloody murder and she giggles.
"I'M BEING SCALPED AGAIN!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" he screams.
Selene walks up, rolls Dexter onto his back with her foot, grabs him by the collar of his shirt, and slams him against the wall.
"That's gonna be the last time you touch me!" she screams.
Just when Dexter thought he couldn't get any more scared, Selene draws a gun and shoves the barrel into his mouth. He closes his eyes and starts whining random gibberish. Noodles walks in after hearing Dexter's screams. Selene pulls the trigger. Dexter spits out a mouthful of water and Selene laughs. She sprays him in the face with it giggling.
"I wouldn't kill you! We needed a good entertainer for parties!" she laughs allowing him to fall to the floor.
Dexter sort of sits there on the floor, wide eyed and shaking.
"She Punk'd you!" says Erika seating herself on the floor next to him.
"I'm late aren't I?" says Noodles.
Dexter is silent and looks as if he was in a car accident and comatose. Noodles sits down next down next to him and tries to get any sort of response out of him. He does this by poking him repeatedly. Erika finds this funny and joins in. Selene stares. She gets an idea and reaches for Dexter's hair. Noodles and Erika stop poking him and watch. Her hand is inches from Dexter's face when his eyes focus from the wall across from him to the hand. Selene looks over to Noodles to say "I knew it" when Dexter grabs her arm and bites down on her hand. She flips out and ends up slamming Dexter's head into a wall causing him to let go and fall onto his back. He stares at her silently for about a minute then hisses while making one heck of a creepy face causing Selene to jump. Noodles takes the opportunity to haul Dexter out of the hallway while apologizing to Selene about Dexter. Dex continues to hiss and make faces the whole time.
(End Chapter 2)
I didn't realize how long this chapter was getting until I put it in Microsoft Word. I'm sorry about that! What do you guys think of how I portray Dexter? Personally, I think I made him too much of a fight starter but that could just be me.....The next chapter will have him a bit more calm....that is unless you like him starting fights every time he sees Selene, then I'd be happy to make him more insane! He's fun!
