Chapter Two

My eyes widened. "Ah who the fuck are you? I don't know you! Merry who's that dude? Merry!" I blurted out quickly.

"Nix I dunno he just appeared!" She said in the same panicked voice I was in.

I grabbed the broom that was next to the door. "Die! Die you little fucker! You aren't stealing from this house! Die you asshole!" The man held his hands up in a karate pose, or so that's what it looked like. He could have been ushering me to stop but I wasn't gonna take any chances, I whacked him with the broom again, but it broke.

"Oh shit." I muttered. "Uh…" I panicked looking for another object. The man stood up slightly crouched over, and headed toward me.

"YAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!" Merry shrieked and jumped on him. The man collapsed to the floor face down and appeared to be unconscious.

"Yeah Merry!" I grinned. She pumped her fists in the air. "Ok, lets call the police. And erm, you can get off him now."

"Right, ok." She said and stood up but was pulled down by the man.

"Hey you little fucker, I'll kick your ass again if you don't let her go!"

"Hey shut up for a sec, and that broom didn't even hurt, but she did." He said painfully. I opened my mouth but closed it when I saw the blade in his hand.

"Now, now, easy with the blade." I ushered. I got a good look at his face. He wasn't much older than me. He had brownish reddish hair and long sideburns. He sure dressed funny too, but hey maybe that's the new robber look.

"I won't hurt her, if you just let me talk. And don't call the fuzz." He said. "Tell me where the hell am I first."

I narrowed my eyes and took a step forward. "Tell me your name first."

He cocked an eyebrow. "Alright. It's Two-Bit Matthews. Now where am I-"

Merry squealed, and turned around to face him. He looked confused, and looked around nervously. Merry was now snuggling close to him. "Hi Two-Bit, I'm Merry, your future wife!" Two-Bit looked scared for a second, then tried to push Merry away towards me, but Merry was latched on tight like a belt.

"Not so fast. You could be lying. You took a damn name from a book, oh yes I said book. We've all read it you know- I mean it was mandatory in school so…" I said.

"Book? Look kid, I was minding my own business, sittin' on my couch- in my house, next thing I know, I was being thrown forward on to this floor. Which is pretty soft carpet if I do say so myself." He explained.

"Whatever I still-" I began.

"Nix this is the real deal here." Merry said pulling out the contents of Two-Bit's pocket.

"What? Hey, kid that's my stuff." He said.

"Merry this guys some pothead who's a little wacky up there and we should call the police." I said.

"No!" They both said. Then looked at each other. Two-Bit looked disgusted as Merry trailed her fingers up and down his chest and had a daydream look on her face.

"Merry!"

"No!"

"Argh fine we can wait till later, but I have a gig to go to and I'm not leaving you two alone." I said. "Merry go get the handcuffs! And search him!"

"Ooh my pleasure." She said tilting her glasses and winking at him. Two-Bit whimpered a bit.

------------

"You two stay backstage." I ordered. "And you," I poked Two-Bit hard in the chest. "If you (poke) try (poke) anything (poke), I'll know. I'm watching you mister!" I widened my eye and pointed my index finger at it, then his, then mine again, then his and pushed his forehead with it.

"Jesus Nix, you're cutting it close, good thing we picked the last slot to perform." Mary said from behind me. "Hey who's this?" Mary said winking at Two-Bit. Two-Bit grinned and took a step forward but Merry held him back. Two-Bit frowned sadly till he put on a fake smile when Merry did the eye thing I had just done.

I pulled my guitar on and did a couple scales to warm my fingers up. "Ooh shiny." Two-Bit said and reached out to touch my guitar. I glared and pulled away.

"If you touch my Ray without my permission, I'll cut your fingers off." I growled.

"Can I touch Ray?" He asked. I eyed him.

"Okie!" I said and smiled. "It's my Epiphone, Les Paul. A beauty eh?" I said with pure joy as Two-Bit petted Ray.

"Uh-huh." He said.

"She's crazy isn't she." Merry said.

"Naw, I have my own baby." He said a whipped out his blade. I pulled Merry aside while Two-Bit looked at his knife.

"Merry I thought you searched him!" I whispered harshly.

"I did, all over." She said in a creepy, dreamy way. "Oh, you meant his jacket too huh?"

"Um yeah!" I said. "Heh, Two-Bit, you're gonna have to put that away, ok? Cause we're gonna get kicked out if you don't. Thanks sweetie." I said and turned.

"I ain't scared of being thrown out." He said.

"Well you should be afraid of that huge bouncer." I said and pointed behind him. Two-Bit rolled his eyes and turned around.

"Is there a problem sir?" The bouncer said and folded his arms.

Two-Bit paled. "No, everything's just fine and dandy!" The bouncer grunted and walked away. Two-Bit imitated the bouncer and pretended to shove a stick up his ass. I laughed.

"You know Two-Bit, that was the sexiest thing I've seen you do yet." Merry said and petted (yes more petting), his arm.

"Nix! We're up!" Kyle called.

"Ok, see you guys in like a half an hour. Now ya'll be good now, ya here?" I said putting on a southern accent for no apparent reason then took my place on stage. Five song's later and 50 bucks later (ok really 10 bucks later cause there are five people in the band and it's not exactly a high paid gig, but at least we got paid) Merry, Two-Bit and I were back home. During this small period of time, I believed Two-Bit might actually be telling the truth. He wasn't the brightest person in the world, and even if he were faking it- you really couldn't fake how he was acting. He was pretty clueless. He was checking out some nice looking car, got too close and the alarm went off. It was pretty funny to watch him nearly shit himself.

"Hey did you guys hear something?" I asked. We paused.

"No." Two-Bit said.

"Oh alright." I muttered. Yeah maybe I'm a bit paranoid but better safe than sorry. I heard a noise again this time it was voices.

"I heard that." Merry said.

"Oh great more intruders. Two-Bit you're a big man you go up." I said.

"Big man? Are you calling me fat?" He glared.

"Just go up there!" I snapped.

"Oh fine, but this ain't over." He said and went up the stairs with Merry and me following. The voices sounded like bickering.

"Go on!" I hissed.

"Hey I know those voices!" He said and opened the door.

Who do you guys think it'll be? R&R!
