Chapter 12:MORE Video Games!
After the little, umm, "snowball episode", Adria was invited back to Murdoc's Winnebago to "hang out", and she eagerly took advantage of the offer. It was about ten-thirty, and the two had just finished watching another episode of an occult Sci-Fi TV show, called In Search Of...
"I can't believe a ghost strangled that guy," Adria gasped.
"And I can't believe vampires looked like that," Murdoc added. "That guy must've been wearin' colored contacts or summink."
"I'd agree to that, but I have to admit, he was pretty hot."
Murdoc glared at her with his mismatched eyes, a look in them clearly saying "You have got to be fucking kidding me".
"But, he's not as hot as you, Muds. So, now that that's over, what do you wanna do now?"
Murdoc was about to carry her back to his bedroom to end the night, his way, until he heard something from the TV.
"Cases of the Stigmata, tales from the Queen Mary ghost ship, and Satanism in your own home," the announcer said, "all next on In Search Of..."
"I'm watchin' this," Murdoc replied.
Adria let out a sigh. "Okay, do you have to watch everything that has to do with Satan?"
"I don't 'ave to, but I want to."
"Well, just be thankful that I haven't seen this episode before. By the way, what the hell is the Stigmata?"
Murdoc laughed. "Wantin' me to ruin the episode for ya, love? Well, the Stigmata is a weird thing that causes blood to pour out of small 'oles in people's 'ands an' feet, the exact same places where they say Jesus was nailed to the bloody cross."
"Wow," Adria gasped. "Carrying that burden must be pretty hard."
"Who cares? At least it ain't 'appenin' to us!"
"You are so mean! This is, like, a curse that can kill anyone because of, like, severe blood loss or just pain."
"An', just t'let ya know, these people, or 'victims', are all nuns an' priests. I'm a Satanist; I don't worship the Catholic God."
"Neither do I. I worship the Forces of Nature. But, that doesn't mean that we can't feel sorry for those people."
"Well, ya li'l 'ippy, I don't."
"Yeah, neither do I."
Murdoc just stared at her. What the 'ell is wrong wit' this girl, he asked himself. "You're weird," he said aloud.
"Fuck you."
"Well, ya are."
"I know I'm weird; I just don't like to be told I'm weird."
"Riiight...did ya take ya pills t'day, or are ya skippin'?"
"Piss off, Muds..."
"Please?"
"No."
"Please?"
"No!"
"...Please?"
"NO!"
The episode had just ended, the TV had just been turned off, and Murdoc was, of course, asking Adria for a little "comfort". And, of course, Adria wasn't that eager to spend a night in that Winnebago with a psycho. No matter how much she loved him.
"Please?"
"NO!"
"C'mon, Adria! I'm sayin' 'please'!"
"And, the answer is still 'no', Muds. Don't think that just because we're a couple means that you get the chance to screw around with me every, single night."
Murdoc snickered. "But, I though ya enjoyed last night."
"I never said I didn't." Adria then looked at the bottom of Murdoc's television set and discovered something rather funny...a Nintendo GameCube. "Hey, what kinda games do you have on that thing?"
"Don't change the subject, Garrison."
"I'm not...really. If you catch my drift."
"Surprisin'ly, I don't."
"God, you're worse than 2D sometimes. Okay, I'll explain. We'll play one round of one of your video games. If I get a higher score than you or if I just beat the shit outta you, then you can take advantage of me."
Murdoc snickered even more. "Cool. So, what game would ya like t' play? I got Downhill Domination, Mortal Combat,-"
"Mortal Combat."
"Cool wit' that. Prepare t' lose."
Once the game was set up, the two were at work choosing their fighters. Murdoc chose one called Baraka, a bald-headed demon with snake eyes and even sharper teeth than Murdoc's. Adria chose a warrior called Jade, a female warrior dressed in green that looked a bit like a ninja. Finally, after picking--or should I say arguing over--an environment, the Sewers, the game began.
Murdoc's character might have had a great deal of special attacks and strength, but Adria ignored the character's brutality and kept her eyes on the environment, trying to find a "miracle way" of beating him.
At last, she thought of something. It was a clever plan, to say the least. Surrounding the arena was a moat of what seemed to be acid. After two rounds, with both players winning one, and one to go to determine the winner, Murdoc decided to finally finish his opponent for good. But, as he was busy pressing buttons, he never saw Adria's character sucker-punch his character into the acid lake, finishing him for good and winning the game. And, well, let's just say that Murdoc wasn't very happy...
"Shit!" he cursed through his sharp teeth. "That was a cheap shot; that wasn't fair!"
"You always say that," Adria taunted him in a fake 2D voice.
"Don't make me choke ya again."
"Cry me a river, build a bridge, and get over it already! Why are you always such a sore loser."
"I'm not a sore loser! I jus' used t' be so good at video games, and now I suck."
"Was that in your dreams?" Adria smirked, the started laughing.
"Shut up, or I swear to Lucifer, I'll rape ya."
Adria stopped laughing, but then resumed after a few seconds of silence. "Y'know, a wise friend once told me something:-"
"Don't make fun of ya boyfriend?"
"Nope. It's only rape if you don't enjoy it."
Murdoc blinked in disbelief. "You...are a psychotic li'l girl, Adria." He then wrapped his arm around her. "But, at least I've seen past that."
With a small smile, Adria kissed Murdoc softly on the cheek. "We're both psychotic, so I think we're meant for each other."
"Don't start gettin' all lovey on me, darlin'. I ain't that type."
"Oh, and I suppose when you said you loved me last night, you were drunk?" Adria's heart now beat a melancholy rhythm, as if, any minute, she was expecting heartbreak.
"Actually, I was serious. Besides, I don't get drunk after I eat a lot; I've learned from that experience more than once."
"Idiot."
Well, I guess you can say that this is one of the shortest chapters I've ever done, and one of the stupidest and corniest. Well, if you all just read and review, I'll put the next chapter on, and you'll get a rather scary surprise.
2D:(raises hand)I 'fink I know what it is!
KK:If you say anything that has to do with zombies, I'll chuck a wrench at you, bunny-boy.
2D:(puts his hand down quickly)
KK:That's what I thought.
