Once
So…what's this now? Aelgifu has brought forth another sucky fanfic for ya, but this is a bit different than the others. Here we've got one told from the POV of yes, Cortez. Whoa, tis true indeed me kiddies, hehe. A story told by a bird…whoo…- wipes sweat from face- prepare yourself… for agony…angst…awfulness…and ravens.
Disclaimer: No, no, Helena does not own the Gorillaz (or Cortez), or that poem The Raven by Edgar Allen Poe. R n R por favor. Rated for nightmares/mental torture/cussing. Fun huh?

You know me as Cortez, pet of a said Murdoc Niccals. You know me by my earsplitting screech, my odd red eyes. My master. But he is no more. I am no more. They are no more. It is all nevermore.
The paradise I knew turned to Hell the day he came. No, not my Murdoc. Him. He returned, the one thought to be dead for so long. He came, I was the only one who saw him. Saw the dark cape flowing on the ground, saw the distasteful top hat. Birds have feelings, birds have hearts. Mine was beating out of my chest.
There was no way this could be. Not the man that had made my master the haunted bastard he was. Not the man that had killed himself in front of his sons' eyes. He was dead, or was he?
Geez, I feel so original. What a great ending. Wah. I crave criticism, so bring it on. More on the way. You're probably wondering what the hell's wrong with this freaked out bird, but something sure is, 'm tellin' ya. You'll have to be patient and find out….
Once upon a prison dreary…
