Chapter Three---Lips Like Morphine

I wanna girl with lips like morphine,

Knock me out everytime they touch me,

I wanna feel her kiss just crush me and

Knock me out---

A slim appendage slipped out from underneath a warm haven of half-awarness, curled pale digits into a pale fist and slammed said fist down on the snooze button before flinging the covers off. Today was going to be a b-e-a- UTIFUL day!

Except for the tiny, insignificant fact that as the slender boy flung the covers, his foot went unnoticed as it was trapped with in a tangle of bedsheets, effectively tripping the red-head, sending him spiraling down to the floor in a rather amusing fashion. Burrito Ala' Axel.

Axel wrestled with the Demon Sheets of Satan for a good ten minutes before gaining mastery over the Dark Forces of 5 AM . With a triumphant "Aha!", Axel made his way into the bathroom where a bright eyed, smiling brunette was standing brushing pearly whites to glistening perfection while he smiled at Axel. Don't ask me how it was a discernable smile through a mouth so full of foam toothbrush it would scare a rabid moomba but he smiled nonetheless. We think.

"Goof morfeen Afel, pid oo fep ouiqe?" Axel stopped his morning ritual of using the Porcelin Goddess and thought a moment.

"Yea, actually. I had this great dream about a gallon of purple quick sand, the lighting crew and humilating Kairi on national television. You?

"Fetty ouiqe. Fat cat boot Kaylee's mare!" Axel smirked and then suddenly, as though a thought occured to him, he began yelling "Oh! oh! oh!Gueswhatguesswhatguesswhat!!! Come on guess!" as he began undress for the shower. He fell trying to get his boxers off but none the less continued to beg Sora to 'guess what' as he threw said obstruction to morning cleanliness into the hallway. Sora spit out such a huge amount of toothpaste Axel wondered how in the world there was still a whole tube of minty fresh toothpaste left.

"What?"

"KILL HANNAH WAS ON THE RADIO THIS MORNING!!!!!!!" He called over the hum of the shower, which was delightfully warm, just the way he liked it.

" SWEET!!! Which song?"Sora began jumping up and down, head banging while punching the air before falling to his knees, a final strum to his air guitar. His morning sacrifice to appease the Rock God's.

"LIPS LIKE MORPHINE!" And on que, as if the Rock Goddess herself had descended upon them and blessed them with misplaced desire and inspiration, they began to sing.

"I wanna girl with lips like morphine! I wanna feel her kiss just kill me!!! And leave me gasping!!!!"

"AXEL, SORA!!!!!!" The screech from the other room was as frightening as a oversized behemoth in heat. Our Bright and Early Avengers cowered though the object of their iminent doom was not in sight. Yet.

"Yes?"

"Sing ONE MORE VERSE and I swear to every pagan god under the sun, I will RIP OUT YOUR SPINES, and wrap them into lovely Christmas wreaths, BLOOD AND ALL and HANG THEM FROM THE FRONT DOOR!!!!!!!!!"

Sora cringed and silenced himself. Axel lept from the shower and raced to get all his clothes on in the proper order while hopping up and down on one foot trying to get a sock on. And that's when it happend.

The Bed Sheets struck again.

Leon rubbed the bridge of his nose, sighing heavily. It was 6:27:15. Axel and Sora were STILL not here, but Jaques Van Rubsterdamn Vanderbuilt Ruben Valasques VII was and he was running out of patience.

"You seed tey be heer at 6:30 SHARP! I am vaiting and it iv not SHARP!" The man's thick accent made Leon almost want to laught but he knew better and before he replied, the infamous duo came crashing through the door in a whirl-wind of laugher, wild hair and...Cloud's left tire? Oh boy. It was one of those mornings. Leon looked at his watch 6:29:52 seconds.

"Do I even want to know what song was on the radio this morning?" Leon had learned long ago that Fate and the Rock Gods predetermined each and every morning for glory or disaster. Leon also learned that if Fate had not been kind on any given day, it woud be a very bad day indeed.

"I WANNA GIRL WITH LIPS LIKE MORPHINE!!!!!!!!!" They fell to the floor in a chorus of a badly sung hail to the Gods.

"Oh Hyne. Straighten up you two. This is.. um..." Jaques eyed him warily, as if one single, misplaced, missing or mispronounced name would send this shoot up in flames. Why couldn't the God's predestine a BAD day for the two. At least then they were on time.

"Jaques Van Rubsterdamn Vanderbuilt Ruben Valasques VII. Jaques meet Axel and Sora." Jaques studied them with distain from his current position from across the room.

"I assume you've already appeased the God's today so do you mind getting to work?" Leon asked, a slight grin on his face. Axel saluted as he attempted to stand, slipped on a wet spot on the floor and landed flat on his back.

"Aye aye sir!"

Sora couldn't help but laugh.

Riku glared at the students who surround him as he walked the halls of Betwix High; far, far way from Traverse High. Far enough for people to have only vaguely heard about the boy.

"Hey, I know you." A young girl stopped mid stride, backed up and smiled at him with bright green eyes.

"No, you don't." It was very nearly a snarl. The girl's smile did not falter.

"Oh dear, you're right! I'm Selphie. I meant I've heard of you and your work! You're Riku Prelude! I hear you're ridiculously successful and that's why Axel and Sora dislike you so much... Oh! But don't tell them I told you, they'd kill me!" She laughed light heartedly and Riku raised a brow at her, a smile tentatively forming.

"Hey, I'll see you at lunch I guess. I've got to go, Mr. Xemnas will cut out my spleen if I'm late again!" the girl bounded off and Riku shook his head. This place was full of freaks.

"Riku!" Zexion called to him from across the hall. Riku made his way over, forcefully removing people from his path.

"What?"

"What song did you hear this morning?"

"...Situations. Why?"

"Curious. It'll be a good day." Riku scoffed.

"...Hey, it can only go up--" Riku's phone rang. No Sympathy for the Dead. That meant it was Seifer.Zexion cursed violently and slammed his way into class.

Somewhere, Fate was laughing.
