Dead silence as the entered the hotel and headed up for attic. Tom looked at Joey and she nodded, agreeing that no matter what happened they'd stick together. Brad and Janet held hands tight, both worried for the other. Frank was putting a brave face on acting as if he wasn't scared but he really was. He didn't want to rule a planet, he loved Transsexual, he thought it was beautiful but he didn't want to rule it, just have fun. He was sure Tom didn't want to either. People like Riff Raff, His mother and Joey were more made for ruling. When the reached the staircase for the attic they all looked around at each other then looked at the top of the stairs, as if saying goodbye before facing their doom.
Once they were all in the attic and
it looked as if nothing was in there. A second later there was a loud
bang then they found themselves surrounded by Riff Raff, Magenta and
eighteen other Transylvanians, all holding an assortment of lasers.
Tom cursed and Frank muttered under his breath. Brad and Janet
tightened their grip on the others hand while Joey smiled and said,
"Hey look! It's the Trannies from your house, Tom!" She said
and waved. Imogen rolled her eyes and kept focused but Perry couldn't
help but smile and wave.
"What's you're name?" Joey
asked.
"Perry." He said, now all the Transylvanians were
staring at him but still held their lasers out.
"That's a
nice name, suits you."
"Th-"
"Perry!" Riff Raff
yelled. Perry jumped a little, looked at Riff Raff, down the ground
then went as serious as the other Transylvanians.
"What were
you doing?" Imogen whispered angrily and nudge him, Perry just
shrugged. Tom smiled at Joey who winked back at him.
"Well
Brad, unfortunately it seems that you did not listen to me." Riff
said, he and Magenta walked into the circle, lasers out stretched.
The other Transylvanians shut the circle back up. "That was a
stupid move, really stupid."
"What have you done with Chris
and Steph?" Tom yelled and took a step towards the duo. About five
Transylvanians, Riff Raff and Magenta pointed their lasers at Tom who
stepped back and gulped.
"Well Prince Tom," Riff said, "Loud
one, aren't we? Well I can assure you that they are still alive,"
he said and smiled evilly, "But now that your father has
disobeyed my orders I cannot guarantee that they will stay that
way."
"You bastard!" Joey yelled at Riff Raff. The five
Transylvanians shifted their lasers to Joey but Magenta lowered hers
and Riff Raff kept his on Tom. Riff Raff and Magenta looked at each
other for a minute before Riff Raff said,
"Quiet J-girl! This
does not concern you!"
"It completely concerns me!" She
yelled, "Tom is my boyfriend, Steph and Chris are my friends, Brad
and Janet are better then my adopted parents, I don't even know my
real parents, and Frank is… Frank. They're like my family and
I'll be damned if I let some incestuous freaks take them away from
me!" Riff Raff looked to the ground and Magenta looked at him.
Janet and Brad shared a concerned look. There was an odd silence in
the room as all the Transylvanians started to look at Riff Raff,
wondering why he wasn't answering. He looked up to Magenta then at
all the Transylvanians then spoke two simple words.
"Get
them."
Everyone ran for it, dodging laser beams here and
there. They were far out number but if they kept on their toes they
could live through this. Joey jumped around dodging lasers and
punching or kicking any Transylvanian that went near her. After she
knocked a smaller one our cold she spotted something. She ran to find
Tom and found him kicking a fallen Tranny.
"Tom!" She hissed.
He jumped and got into fighting position until he realised it was
Joey, he ran over to her. "Tom, look, over there." She pointed to
the direction she came from. "Theres a door, I think Steph and
Chris are in there!"
"Well, come on!" Tom said, grabbed
Joey's hand tighter then necessary and ran. They ran their way to
the door, as fast and stealthy as possible they were almost there
when.
"Not so fast!" Imogen yelled, holding her laser up to
the children who had stupidly ran into the corner. The kids gulped
and backed right into the corner, Joey stood in front of Tom, her
arms outstretched. They were not going to get him! "Move girl, or
I'll shoot you!" She spat, "we just need the boy." Joey
gulped again, closing her eyes.
"No." Joey whispered.
"What?" Imogen said laughing.
"No." Joey said louder and
more bravely. "If you want him you have to go through me."
"Joey-"
"Shut up, Tom!" Joey said. Imogen nodded at
Joey's earlier comment.
"Alright then, say your prayers."
She said as she started tightening her grip on the trigger and as she
did Joey held her breath and closed her eyes, preparing to die when
suddenly she felt someone grab her. She opened her eyes to see
Magenta standing in front of her and Tom, holding her arm and then
SMACK! Riff Raff knocked the laser right out of Imogen's hands then
pushed her to the ground.
"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING!?"
Riff Raff yelled at Imogen.
"You said kill the others if
necessary." Imogen defended herself.
"Yes." Riff sighed,
"But not her." He said and gestured to the girl Magenta was
protecting. Joey frowned and Tom took a look at her, examining her
curiously.
"But, why?" Riff sighed again.
"Just, go
find Frank…. GO!" Imogen scrambled back on to her feet, grabbed
her laser and ran away from Riff. Riff Raff, raising his own laser
turned and faced Magenta, Joey and Tom. He gestured with the laser
for Magenta to move. Hesitantly Magenta let go of Joey's arm and
moved next to Riff Raff, looking at the ground. Riff looked at Tom,
not Joey.
"Like Imogen said, we only want the boy." Riff
said, his voice soft. "We don't want to hurt you, either of you,
just move." Tom tried to push Joey out of the way but Joey grabbed
onto his shirt and shook her head.
"No." She said, "I'm
not moving." Riff Raff's gaze changed from Tom to Joey.
"Joey, move." He said firmly. Joey scrunched up her face, Tom, on
the other hand, was deep in thought, looked like he was piecing a
puzzle together.
"How do you know my name?" Joey asked. "No
one's said it." Riff Raff's face drained of the little colour
that it had.
"I… I… well… I… uh…" He stuttered
slowly turning to face Magenta, who did not look up from the floor.
Joey and Tom seemed to understand the situation at the exact same
time. At the same time, right down to the millisecond, Joeys jaw
dropped and Tom's eyes widened. Tom was the one who spoke, rather
loudly too.
"No way!" was what he said.
