A/N: There ya go. I didn't go to school today so I decided to write a new chapter. And I might write one tomorrow and Monday. Yay. I'm writing a lot and stuff yeah.
I'm on the rag so sorry about not being as enthusiastic as I should be about a new chapter. If I believed in God I'd hate him right now. A lot.
Disclaimer: I don't own Four Brothers, Sid Vicious, Creed's music, or the Mercers. But I do own my main character girl person Michelle, druggie/bassist-Seth, my brotherman Wednesday, and tough hair dresser Lane.
(chapter title from the band Chevelle)
BTW: Listen to 'Sister' by Creed. It's good. Do it. V

I Wonder What's Next
'Caught up in
the middle had no choice had no choice
Birthright forgotten so
silent, no voice'
Tapping on the steering wheel Michelle got extremely impatient with the red light they were stopped at. They had to make just one turn and she'd make her bus, and if she missed it some stranger was going to have her fist in their face.
'I see you, you
know who
Little sister,
little sister
Now realize
little sister over looked little girl
Now realize
little sister over looked little girl'
Michelle drove passed some buses that were pulling into the drop off/pick up area and parked in the lot on the other side of the station. Turning the ignition off Michelle and Wednesday both got out and slammed their doors.
'Bottled up and
empty holding back
At loss your forgotten getting back get
back
Bottled up and empty holding back
At loss your forgotten
getting back get back get back get back yeah'
"We didn't miss it did we? God dammit, we better fucking not have." She said as she went to the back and grabbed her messenger bag while Wednesday grabbed the duffle bag he was letting her borrow, he forgot why she didn't want to use her suitcase.
'Expectations
of another
Love given to the younger
Broken father, broken
brother
Emptiness feeds the hunger'
Both running toward the buses they avoided bumping into the crowds of people the closed proximities of their transportation and skimmed over the cities the buses were going to blinking on the digital signs they had.
'I see you, you
know who
Little sister, little sister
Now realized
little sister over looked little girl
Now realized little sister
over looked little girl'
"FUCK! Where is it Bambi?!?"
'Bottled up and
empty holding back
At loss your forgotten getting back get
back
Bottled up and empty holding back
At loss your forgotten
getting back get back get back get back yeah'
Seeing the bus at the front of the line close its doors and start to drive off, Wednesday's eyes widened when he saw its' sign and he ran as if the cops were after his black ass. Knocking a couple people down and not looking back he ran beside the bus waving his arms and yelling at it to stop, not really getting a reaction from the driver cuz he didn't give a shit if someone missed their ride, it wasn't his problem they were late, he was leaving right on time.
'Now realized
little sister over looked little girl
No direction little sister
over looked little girl'
"Fucking stop man! She's gotta get on this bus!!"
'Change……'
A woman sitting in a window seat was leaning on the window listening to the end of a song when she saw Wednesday hit her side of the bus right next to her.
'Change……'
He looked right at her and gave her a pleading look.
'Change……'
Taking her head phones off, she saw the black boy screaming for her to stop the bus.
Doing just that, she got up and ran over to the front of the bus and slapped him on the shoulder.
"What? Go sit down miss, you're not supposed to be up here. So please-"
"Hey dick head, stop the fucking bus or I'll stop it for you."
Surprised someone actually got up in his face about ditching the kid he quickly looked her over in the rear view mirror. She had a pretty but furious face, hands on her waist, long dark brown hair with red highlights tied in a low bun with a red bandana covering the top of her head with hair hanging down in the front. She was wearing tight faded bell bottom jeans with a tie dyed scarf wrapped around her waist, and a black spaghetti strap. Thinking she was hot but still sour at her for getting in his face for leaving the kid he stopped the bus and turned towards her to warn her to sit back down.
"Miss sit down, you can't be up here passed the white line. Now take your bitchy ass back to your seat."
"Shut the fuck up, how about you open the fucking door and wait for the boy to get on considering one of the rules you have to follow is waiting 20 minutes after the official departure time for late arrivals and you didn't wait at all. So I and the rest of the passengers could have you fired for that and knowingly leaving the boy running after us. Now open the fucking door before you're over paid ass is unemployed."
The driver angrily yanked the door open not wanting to get fired but still debated whether he should just leave her ass on the street. Then he saw her cell in her back pocket as she stepped off the bus and decided against it.
Wednesday was leaning on the back of the bus catching his breath. He hadn't run like that in fucking forever.
Walking up to him she patted his shoulder heavily almost knocking him on his ass.
"Hey, you alright? I got the bastard to stop for you honey. You seemed fucking hell bent on catching this bus hun, come on I'll take your bag for you and put it under, you go on up there, sit down and relax."
Catching his breath he shook his head.
"I'm not the one who's gotta get on, my sister Michelle, I ran after it for her."
"Aw that's sweet of you, and you did it with this heavy bag on you. Do we need to turn around and get her at the station?"
Pissed off at the bus, but happy Bambi knew not to wait for her she was still running down the streets she saw the bus take and then saw the bus had stopped on the side of an on ramp to the freeway. Running faster she saw him talking to some woman in her mid 20's. Flipping a car off that almost hit her she made it to Bambi put her hands on her bare knees from her thigh high green and black striped socks having fallen to her ankles, she took a breather.
"Fucki…ell…no mo…smoking…dyin…hanks…fo…toppin…DAMN you can run! I wish I was black!"
Wednesday and the woman laughed as Michelle fell on her ass and laid back beaten; the driver came out and yelled at them to hurry up - something about traffic and angry bitches.
"You're one lucky girl to have your brother here stop a bus for you sweetie, I wish I had someone like that." The woman said knowing they really were brother and sister whether they had different colored skin or not.
Heh, he told her that I'm his sister. I love you Bambi but one day you'll leave me, and I'll understand. I'll let you go when you want to.
"Yes I know, I'm one lucky son of a bitch." For now…
"What!?! You've been a dude this whole time?"
"Shut up Bambi."
Wednesday pushing himself off the bus giggling like a retard handed the woman the duffle and helped Michelle off the ground.
"I'm going to miss you Mich."
His eyes started to water, but he ended up sucking it up trying to look strong.
"I know, I'll miss you too. But it's only for a few days. I know we haven't spent longer than a day apart and even though we had called each other every two hours but I'll be fine. You'll be fine. I made you enough food in the fridge to last you a week in case you get hungry and there's water and soda in the kitchen closet for you. Take a shower at least once a day and don't forget to brush your teeth. If you forget anything call me, you have money in your high tops in my room and they're under the bed just in case you need to get something. And don't you dare start talking to the picture of me in your wallet. I'm going to come back to you Bambi. It's just a few days. I'll be back before you know it!"
I don't know Mich, I have a feeling something's going to happen. And you know what happens when I get those feelings, they're always right Mich. Just…be safe.
"I know Mich. I'll be fine. I just feel like…mmm…never mind. I'll see you in three days sis. Be safe. And every guy that hits on you, kick their ass for me."
They both hugged and stayed like that for another minute while the woman left them to themselves and opened the door to the under hatch for the luggage and threw Michelle's bag in there and locked it up again.
Letting go of each other Bambi started running off down the street to get back to the station and the van to go home and play Zelda Twilight Princess with a picture of Michelle sitting next to him so he wouldn't be lonely.
Michelle smiled a sad smile knowing that he'd be lonely but would be fine. She was just worried over what Bambi was going to tell her but didn't. And what he might do to her apartment…she did hide the nail polish…didn't she?
I have to be more careful since he might be feeling like somethings' about to happen. Just in case. God dammit I was hoping everything would go smoothly, but first let's just hope I don't have to sleep on the streets while I'm there. I hate not having a place to stay for sure…
The woman put her hand on Michelle's back forcing Michelle out of her thoughts and worries.
"How about we get on the bus now? If I have keep putting up with the drivers' bitching he's gonna be walking on the street and then I'll have to drive the damn bus, and I don't think anyone wants me driving a bus much less with having a license considering I drive like a mad woman. If you want you can sit by me, I don't think they're any other free seats."
"Thank you again, umm?"
"People call me L.A. in the shop but you can call me Lane."
Both getting on the bus and the driver closing the door angrily and finally getting on the freeway, they sat next to each other and both felt like they knew each other since forever even though they just met.
"Shop? What do you do?"
"I'm a stage artist, and I have my own hair salon. I came to New York for a competition I was asked to judge at, so I did. It's supposed to be a huge honor to be asked and I didn't care but they said they'd pay for the trip there and back and a hotel and all this junk and I got a bunch of free shit so I did it cuz I'm cheap and I love getting free shit."
"Hell yeah, same here. I'm cheap as fuck. So you live in Detroit?"
"Yup, and I'm guessing you live in New York? What do you do?"
Michelle told her about her band and how they've just been getting big, she told her that after her trip to Detroit when she gets back they might be getting signed to a label so they'll be getting more gigs, they'll write more songs and eventually be on a couple radio stations and maybe on TV.
They both kept talking about what they do, girl shit, and the stupid but funny things Bambi always does. Both of them started feeling like long lost friends finally found.
…13 more hours of girl talk and a couple bathroom/food breaks later…
"So why are you going to Detroit? You have a place to stay and stuff?"
"Well no I don't but I'm going there to find my real brother. He left me in an orphanage when I was little and said he'd make sure I got adopted with him but he didn't and I ended up living with some druggie bitch that made me move to New York with her. So I'm going to Detroit, that's where he was last adopted and stayed with his foster mom, to confront him and beat the shit out of him for not looking for me."
Looking at Michelle Lane had a confused look on her face.
"Wait, wait, wait. Hold on. You're going to Detroit to find your long lost brother, after having a shit childhood with a druggie bitch not knowing what he went through just to beat the shit out of him? What if he had a life like you? What if he did look for you? Where was the orphanage you two were at?"
"It's in Detroit…why?"
"What if he thinks you're still in Detroit? Or what if he's been looking for you this whole time and you said that, that woman made you move? Maybe since you don't live with her anymore maybe he found her and she said she didn't know where you were or lied and said you were dead or something?"
"I've thought about all of that every single day of my life and that's why I'm going to him to find out what happened after I beat his ass for breaking his promise. And afterwards I'm never going to have anything to do with him."
Michelle started tearing up and hugged her knees. She remembers what her brother was like and loved him. Thought he was the strongest person in the world. But he let her down like everyone else in her life except for Bambi. But then she just figured it was because Bambi needed her, and that he'd eventually leave her too.
He's 19 and still acts like a baby, and I'm only 20 I shouldn't be acting like his mom. He has one, a rich one, he needs to grow up. Ugh this is not a time to be thinking about this, shit what did she say?
"Huh?"
"Hun I'm not telling you what to do or anything I'm just saying maybe busting in on his life after so many years to beat the shit outta him isn't such a hot idea. Him just finding out his sister is alive after so long is like a punch in the face. The poor guy might burst into tears, or hopefully not but he might not care about you and really hurt you. You don't know. He might even have a family of his own and you could scare the shit out of them if you start beating the guy. Hey how about this, when we get to Detroit I'll give you a ride to his house and I'll be there with you. I'll be moral support, and make sure you don't get hurt."
"You're right…I made this whole assumption on what happened when I was little so I guess I just believed it. You'd give me a ride there and stay with me?"
"Of course hun, and since you don't have a place to stay you can stay at my house till you go back to New York."
"Thank you, but don't you have your salon and stuff?"
"Hun, I'm not going to baby sit you. I have another car at my house that I'll let you borrow that while you're there if you need it, I trust you more with driving and not running off with it more so than myself."
"Hahaha, ok. Thank you, you're doing a lot for me. Is there some way I can repay you or something, cuz I'd feel bad if I couldn't do something for you."
"Well your band could throw a concert in my honor or something, hahaha, that'd be cool. But seriously just keep in contact with me, and whenever you're back in Detroit call me and we'll hang out!"
"Cool I'd love to do that, and Bambi will totally be on board with it."
The bus started slowing down and finally came to a stop.
Both looking out the window to see the big sign on the side of the station reading 'Detroit, Michigan', so they both gathered their belongings and stood up.
Finally stepping off the bus onto the wet side walk they both grabbed their bags from under the bus and Michelle followed Lane to her black Jetta. Looking up at the sun finally setting and seeing the sky finally get dark she thought about what was to come.
Here we go…I wonder what's next…
!READ THIS!
A/N: Happy? No? Yes? Probably not. Yeah I know Jack's not in this chapter either and you want him to be but I gotta write this shit to get to the good stuff or you wont get who Lane is and all this shit. Basically this chapter is a shit you gotta know so just deal with it chapter so you get what happens later. Next chapter Evelyn makes her appearance. Maybe Jerry too.
Anyways what about Lane? You guys like her? I was thinking she'd be a lot like Bobby, girl version though. Maybe there's something to that later on who knows. I wanted her to be like…Michelle's think about what you're doing side and Bambi her just beat the shit out of anything that gives you problems side.
I know he doesn't really seem it but he's really over protective of Michelle and Bobby and him will get along way too much, even though Bobby will totally want to kick his ass when he gets too hyper. And yes Bambi's parents are like super rich. You'll know more later.
I wish I'd get paid to be on the rag. Then I'd rock it. V
