BLK 7
As you may have guessed, this chapter will be...quite angsty. Hopefully, that's not a problem witth you guys. Anyways, hope you enjoy!
"Hey, guys." I sit down at Tyrone's desk, along with his brother and Fred. Instantly, my eyes darted towards Lucifer's desk, because he'd always come out of nowhere, trying to sit next to me as close as possible. This time, however, he got up, but went straight out of the room, not even taking a glance at us. We all looked at each other.
"Hmm...what has happened to him, Al? The look on his face, so empty and cold...very unlike him." The others nodded to Tyrone, just as confused as I am. Ever since yesterday, he's been like that: hell, he even wore the boys' uniform instead of those horrifyingly short biker shorts. It's like his entire sense of identity did a complete 180.
"Well, he's been like that since yesterday, ever since we saw these three legendary dog guys- !" Suddenly, the look on everyone's faces changed. What it is with everyone when the mention of those three guys come up? Are they famous or something? All three of them looked down. "Um...guys?"
"*sigh* Well shit...it's no wonder he's acting all cold like that." Fred grumbled, crossing his arms.
"What do you mean...? What happened?"
"You've heard of the "Girl No More" incident?"
"!" That name...yeah, Tyrone told me about that. How his evil bitch of a girlfriend did...but what does that have to do with...
"Don't." Tyler caught us off guard when he suddenly spoke up. "Don't talk about that incident..." He opened his eyes, glaring. "In front of my brother." For some reason, that felt directed towards me, even though I wasn't the one who brought it up...
"No, Tyler, it's okay. Do you remember when I told you that I had Sylvia turned in to the police? Well, two out of the many policemen were Lucifer's parents."
"His parents...?!" A gang leader son having cops for parents? How ironic can that be... "And they allowed him to become part of a gang?"
Fred shook his head and continued the story for him. "No, he weren't part of no gang back then. Only after THAT happened, that he did." The way he said "that..." a feeling of dread filled me. Why do I have a feeling I really don't want to hear what he says next? "You see, those three dogs were one of the main helpers for Tyrone's girl. And when they tried getting away, they hurt tons of people. But worst of all...*sigh* They-"
*SLAM*
"!" The whole room became silent when Lucifer slammed the door open. He looked towards our direction, and I don't know about the others, but I shuddered: the look in his eyes...they matched those of an actual demon. "Don't you dare finish that story." And even his voice...it's not the annoying cheerful, girly one I've grown so used to. It sounds so normal and calm, as if the whole time, he was faking that other voice or something...
"And why not? Your friend here doesn't-"
*SLAM*
"ALAN DOESN'T NEED TO KNOW!"
"..." I felt my body fly back against the back of the chair. As many times as I've asked, he's never actually called me by my name, and the time that he finally does, I'm not even happy. For some reason, at this moment, it just doesn't...feel right. He lifted his fists off the table.
"It's not his business, nor is it anyone's. Say more, and I'll kill you, right here and now. ALL of you." Even I was threatened...and that alone made me lose the will to reply to that. Just what happened, and why is it making him act this way? Is this him when he truly is angry?
I turn to the guys "Look guys just forget I said anything alright? I'm sorry I even asked anything. A man past is his to tell when he wants to."
Lucifer still had his stone-cold look at all of us. But it felt like it was directed at me.
"I'm sorry, I-"
"You said you'd drop it, right, Alan? So just let it go."
I opened my mouth to respond but I couldn't think of anything to say.
Fred and Tyrone went back to their seats without another word. Tyrone gave me a look and I got the meaning in a second: "Be careful about what you say."
The rest of the class day was relatively quiet. After weeks of being harassed and made fun of by Lucifer and then it just suddenly stops... It felt wrong. Too wrong.
It was during the math section of class that I tried to take a chance.
All we had to do was answer some questions and write down the answers in the book. Hell, the teacher was nice enough to let us use our phones when we're done. After 30mins I finished and thinking how I could maybe cheer him up or do something. He's not himself for fuck sake! Or just the guy I'm used to being around!
I glanced over at him and he was on his phone. Perfect.
I pulled mine out and sent him a message.
"[Hey...Its me, Alan.]"
"[I know I never really send you stuff so I don't want to freak you out with this message. I'm sorry I said something that offended you.]"
I glanced at him to see if he got it. He did, apparently, when he picked his phone back up. All he did was sigh and looked at me; now he looks sad. I waited almost anxiously when he, I can assume, was replying back to me.
"Just...stay out of it, alright? It doesn't concern you."
"!" I wasn't expecting a happy reply, but not one this brash. The more he's trying to hide it, the more curious I become, and honestly the angrier because he always acts as if we're specially bonded or whatever, but now, I'm just a complete stranger? All this time...was he just faking it?! Of course, him pretending to be in love with me doesn't entirely piss me off, but being played for a fool is something I can NOT let slide! I rose out of my seat and stomped towards him.
"Ah...! What do-" I gripped his arm and started dragging him out the room.
"Man on man talk! Right now!" Everyone was looking at us until we left the room, and I slammed him against the wall in the hallway. He crossed his arms and looked downwards, having that unfitting look of sourness on his face. "Look...I know everyone has things they don't want to talk about, but apparently, whatever's happened is making you act completely different, and I want to know what's the deal, right now!" When he replied to me, the tone in his voice was so icy, it hurt even me a little.
"The ones I can trust with my heart is my crew, not you. And why do you care, anyway? You don't like me and found me a nuisance, so you should be happy I'm not even trying to get near you. Or maybe you're feigning worry to make yourself look good in front of the others, hmm?"
"What...?!" Th-This bastard...how, how dare he... Now that emotionless expression turned into a smug grin, and in truth...it irked me.
"Right on the mark? Yeah, I thought so. This is the real me. I never was in love with you. Why would I be? With a HUMAN?!" He screamed the last word angrily, spitting it at my face. "I was only just messing around with you, obviously! Hah! Or did you grow attached to me? Hmph: that's just like you humans."
I gripped my fist with gritting teeth. "You...you mother..." He truly lives up to his name: a demon. That's what I've been calling him, and that's what he really is! Fucking around with my emotions for his own amusement...an act that I could never find it in my heart to forgive!
"You two, stop it!"
"!"
"!" The sound of Tyrone's voice and the sight of him coming to us caught us both by surprise. We were still pretty close to the door, so a few curious heads, along with Fred's, popped out the entrance. He gently pushed me a distance away from Lucifer.
"Friends do not fight each other." Holding back the anger boiling up inside me, I tell him,
"Yes, you're right: if we WERE friends. But apparently, I was just his little puppet to hide who he truly is!"
"..." All he did was cross his arms again and looked up, having a look of boredom on his face.
"Who...he truly is? No, Alan, you're...misinterpreting."
"Misinterpreting? What, exactly?!" He also turned to look at him, then slowly shook his head.
"Lucifer, you...you are trying your very hardest to hide away your feelings, are you not? Out of all, you do not want Alan the most to know about it...about-"
"HAH!" The mumblings from the peekers stopped and we both merely stared. He threw Tyrone's hand out of the way.
"What a load of bullshit! Hiding my true feelings away...these ARE my true feelings! There's nothing to hide, nothing to say! And you, or anyone here, say a word, there won't even be a PARTICLE of your bodies left in existence! I'm going home!" He stomped down the hall, and I could hear some whimpers from the other boys.
"...Fred, tell our teacher that Alan and I need to go to the infirmary. We...must discuss something."
"..." He threw his arm over my shoulder and I walked with him upstairs, presumably up to the rooftop, where no one is allowed, but this a school full of delinquents, who gives a shit?
I was fuming. No I was seething with rage. That fucking bunny... He uses me for kicks and makes me fuck him and to think I was worried about him...FUCK!
Tyrone didn't say a thing to me as we went up the stairs. But the entire time we walked I could feel his eyes look my way. Whatever the hell he wants to tell me has to do something with Lucifer.
But who gives a shit?! He didn't care for me! He was just out for fucking kicks and getting off! "AND HE HAS THE FUCKING GALL TO SAY IT DIDN'T MATTER CAUSE I'M A HUMAN?!"
"Alan..."
"WHAT, man?!" I screamed at him, though unintentionally, of course. "I-I'm sorry..."
We were on the roof top of the school. The sky was reflecting my heated mood with dark rolling clouds.
Tyrone didn't flinch when I yelled at him. He just stood there and pointed at the railings. I followed his finger and went to look over.
I wish I hadn't.
It was Lucifer. He was walking towards his bike. I could only see his back but I swear I hope he could feel how much I hate him. He must have because he stopped and turned around to see me looking back at him. The same empty eyes from before looked back at me and without a moment of hesitation, turned around and hopped on his bike and rode away.
My muscles tightened, I felt the blood rush to my face and I felt the veins on my neck.
"Fuck, I HATE that asshole! ! !"
I saw a trash can, picked it up and threw it against the door leading downstairs. Tyrone was leaning against the side of the door with his eyes closed. I grabbed the trash can and punched it as hard as I can. I just kept punching it, leaving dents in the tin can. I felt my hand bleed but I didn't give a fuck at this point. I kneed and kicked it a few times but punching felt so much better. I kept cursing and screaming
All the dents I made made it sharper and kept putting small gashes on my fist.
I just kept going.
I don't know when but it started to rain. It was heavy, beating down on my back like I am on the trash can.
Then I felt a claw on my shoulder. I didn't stop. It pulled at me. I still didn't stop.
Finally, Tyrone yanked me away from the trash can and made me look him in the eye. The water around my face felt warm for some reason... I felt like I needed to scream.
Tyrone pulled me to a bench with a tarp draped above it for shade but this time for cover from the rain. He sat me down and I just looked down seeing a wavy water obscured floor. I...was crying?
"H-Hmph! Just some dust in my eyes...!" I, I never cry! Not even when my most favorite characters from whatever media die! "The rain...it's just the..." I couldn't even speak a coherent sentence. Why...?! "T-The rain! *sniff* I-It's, it's covering my-"
"Tears are covering your face, Alan. You are crying, even if you do not want to believe that." Crying...?! I know, I know I am, but what the hell, why?! After all that, why the fuck should I be...? "Alan, I want you to listen, and listen good: Lucifer was lying. That is not how he truly feels."
"Huh...?" I could hardly see. Everything looked so blurry. "Lying...? How would you..."
"Alan, if he truly felt that way, then he would not care if you were to know of what happened. Because he is acting this way, and because he threatens us with such malice if we were to tell you...that alone is evidence that he truly considers you as a friend. Right now, he is letting his emotions overtake him."
"..." I wiped my eyes clean from my shirt and sniffed. "Is...is that really true? Hah hah...I guess I really have gotten used to that devil bunny around me all the time, acting like how he usually does. But what he said sure didn't seem like a lie...but that's no excuse for what he said!" My sadness went right back to anger. "What he said was completely crossing the line! The only way I'll forgive him...is if he man up, and tell me what's wrong, what really happened, like a TRUE FRIEND would!" My voice echoed throughout the sky, which was clear again.
"..." Even Tyrone was at a loss for words, looking at with a shocked expression. Then, he smiled, patting my back. "You...are such a hard-headed one. Hm hm hm. But you are not the Alan I know if you aren't."
I felt my face turn red and huffed. "I'll push you in the rain! Hmph!" Then we started laughing. It feels so good to finally feel a little bit of happiness today. Tears and anger are the things that I don't want becoming my normal routine, emotion-wise, although I do feel the latter quite a lot lately...
"HEY!" Ack, the janitor! It's that janitor, a Mr. Mime, but he's always so cranky and angry all the time. Well, not that I can talk. He screamed from the door, "Can't you gay boys find somewhere ELSE to make out at?! And especially if you're thinking of doing you-know-what? Cleaning up these cum stains ain't a walk in the park, y'know!"
"Sh-Shut the hell up! It's nothing like that!" I yelped, flipped him off. I must've mashed his buttons, because his face is steaming red. Looks like he'll pop a blood vessel. He snapped the mop in his hand at the tip and pointed it at us like a spear.
"Do you REALLY want to fight us? I know I can kick your sorry ass and my friend here has type advantge over you." I say, getting into a fighting pose.
"Just get the hell outta here! !"
I was about to say something but Tyrone put a claw on my shoulder, telling me to stop.
"J-J-J-J..."
?" Wh...What is up with his face?! He's all red, and sweating a lot.
"J-J-Just ignore...s-s-such an outr-rageous claim..." Wow, I never saw him so embarrassed before...but does he know how hard I'm trying not to blow up from embarrassment right now?!
"Hah hah! You two are redder than cherries! Tch! Boys these days, thinkin' they can express their romance anywhere..." His voice trailed off as he went back down. Ugh, who even misunderstands like that, anyway?! Now I'm reluctant about ever coming up here alone, at least.
"C-C-Come on! Hmph!" I make my still-stuttering friend walk back to class with me, but when turning the corner in the hallway, I instantly stepped back: three very tall guys were walking down it, but who they were made me step back: those three legendaries I kept hearing about! What are THEY doing here?! I smack Tyrone's chest to snap him out of it, and whispered, "Look! It's...!"
"...!" He gasped in shock. When we peeked our heads, the three were walking down the hallway and stopped in front of the door to our classroom. I have a real good feeling as to why they're here. "Lucifer..." Tyrone said the answer for me. I nodded in agreement. Obviously, they were looking for him.
"..."
"..."
"...Come out."
"!"
"!" Wh...What the hell?! How did they know we were right here?! I don't know who out of the three said it, but it was a real calm-sounding voice. Thinking that they thought someone was there, Tyrone and I shakingly stayed put, until the Suicune poked his head out to us, making me freeze up and hold back a screech. Seeing a Pokemon so powerful up close like this...I don't know if i should be amazed or scared. I'll go with both.
"It is rude to hide from others. Come out."
"Ah...!" He gripped my collar out and forced me out onto the open. When the other two saw me, I gulped really hard: h-hey, legendaries don't eat humans, right?! They don't, right, Dad?! Tyrone hesitantly came out, twiddling his fingers while having the look of a scared puppy. He was still holding on to my collar. "Wh-Wh-What?! I-I ain't edible!"
His face turned from serious to dead-panned. "...Excuse me?" He released my collar and flicked his hair. Does he think he's cool? (Even though that really did look cool...) "Hmph...such a foolish, typical human." Aaargh! What is it with everyone and their species-racism towards humans?! "...In any case, we have came looking for you. Edgar, Ren, and I, Swan."
"...Umm, you're not a bird."
"?!" For a second, I thought his eye twitched. "Y-You dare to insult my name?!"
"Ugh..." The overly deep voice from one of the other two made me shiver. It came from that Entei, who I think is the one named Edgar. "That's hardly the point, Swan-"
"*PFFFFFFFFFT!*"
That noise...did that just come from...?! Yes, it must have came from the Raikou, Ren, who's clamping his mouth shut, trying not to laugh, which fails...miserably.
"Oh, oh hoh hoh, oh hee hee!" Then he clenched his stomach. "HAH HAH HAH, HEE HEEE HEEEEE, HAR HAR, GAH HAH HAH, AAAAAAAH!"
Despite sounding like an insane killer, Edgar rolled his eyes and Swan sighed. I guess this is a common thing for him to do or something...He wiped the tear from his right eye. "Y-You are a very funny human! *pant* Edgar, Swan, let him join our group, I beg of you, AH HAH HAH HAH HAH!"
Rrrrgh! He's lucky I'm such a wuss, or I would have gave him a serving of my special verbal lashing! Dad knows firsthand how that is! ...Wait a second. "...What do you want ME for me?!"
*SLAM*
Everyone fell to the floor! Then they got right back up, with Swan lashing out, "NOW you inquire about that?! Certainly, you are very late with your reactions to words!"
"I was too busy being scared!"
"Do not say such shameful things so bluntly! Are you not a man?!"
"Least I look like one." I mumbled, snickering to myself, but, of course, OF COURSE, he heard me. Kinda.
"I beg your pardon?!"
"SHUT UP!" Edgar's voice made us flinch. He stomped over and hauled me over his shoulders. He did it so easily, as if I was a toothpick, but at least his mane feels very nice, and dowsed with some very expensive-smelling cologne. He turned his head up to look at me. "You're taking a forced early leave! Friend of human!"
"Whoaaah!" He turned around swiftly to face Tyrone, who still looked nervous and confused.
"We will be borrowing your friend for a little while, and promise not to hurt him...unless he pisses me off."
*whimper*
"Trust me, I have NO intention of doing that, sir!" Maybe, if I try to be as friendly as possible, they will tell me what happened those three years ago, and exactly how they were involved. Yeah: just do as they say, try to befriend them, then finally get the truth!
As we (well, me technically still held up by Edgar on his shoulders) went outside to a fancy-looking car, I ask, "S-So where are you taking me, anyway?"
Ren smirked at me and said, "Oh, just a little trip...to Gamble Berry City!"
"?!" G-Gamble Berry City...?! The city of casinos, gambling, neon lights...but that's a 2 hour drive! "H-Hey, isn't that a bit far- WAGH!" Edgar opened the door and threw me in the backseat. Geez, if you're going to kidnap somebody, at least be gentle about it! Ren sat next to me, Edgar took the front, and Swan took the wheel.
"Alright! Human!" Ren threw his arm around my shoulder, making me nervous a little: being this close to a legendary is not an everyday thing, you know. I don't know if it's just me, but his eyes look as if they're scanning my body...a lot of my body. *gulp* As long as he's not flicking his tongue, I'm okay. I think. "What's YOUR relationship with Lucifer? Be honest with us!"
"*gulp*" Oh dear. This is going to be long, looong ride.
"L-Lucifer and I..." Right now even I don't know what we really are. "I guess you can say me and him are friends...I don't really know."
"Hmm... Interesting. I would have thought you'd be his little sexual frustration vent. Has he ever used you or touched you in a sexual way, if you'd be so kind enough to tell us." This Raikou was leaning too damn close to me. His yellow fur felt to course and prickly.
"L-like I'd tell you! And even if I'm straight! He never did anything to me I didn't want!"
...I don't even know whats a lie and whats truth to me now...
"Hmmm, is that right? But anyways, how does it feel to have been deceived by that rabbit? Not a very good feeling, now is it?" The way he said that, it sounds as if... I'm probably crossing the line with this question, but:
"So...is there a reason you three did what you did to Lucifer? Whatever you did?" Immediately, I felt pressure in the air: did I start the beginning of my end? Edgar huffed, throwing his head against the headrest.
"You may think he's just a little hurt boy who lost his parents...but he's everything but that." So they killed his parents...yeah, that did cross my mind as to what happened several times. So that's why he didn't anyone to talk about it? Well, it makes sense: no one never wants to have to recall traumatizing memories. Then it just occurred to me the other part he said.
"Everything but that, you say?" Just how much of his past is that bunny trying to hide, anyway? "Umm, if you don't mind my asking-"
"NOPE!" Ren cut me off. Man, did the words "excuse me" become non-existent or something?! "We'll tell you everything when we get to our place! But for now..."
"Auhhh...?!" He undid some buttons and threw his hand down my shirt. "Um...what are you..."
"See, I like to get it down with women and men, but I never tried it out with a human! Hurr..." I don't know why, but I'm not even trying to put up a fight.
"Ren, really? Can you not wait until we are out of sight? Honestly..." Swan groaned, focusing his attention back on the road. Edgar merely grumbled.
"Tch, and he said he was straight. Yeah, right!"
"B-But I am really am- wagh!" He made me fall down on my side. Ugh, that smug look on his face...why is it making me blush and submit like a freakin' girl?! And the feel of his claws against my chest makes me feel all weird, too.
"Hah hah hah! Am I so hot and amazing, you're fine with this? Hey, you do as I say, and we'll spill the beans on eeeverything you want to know, capiche?" He said, licking my ear. Haah, my body's feeling so weird right now, which is to be expected of a Pokemon of such status, I guess? B...But he said he'll tell me whatever I want when he's done with me, and I don't want to wait until this ride's over.
"O...Okay. S-Sure." I gulped, exhaling loudly when he suddenly pinched my nipple.
"Excuse me but I tend to get a little rough when I get revved up" To prove his point he bit my neck.
"OW! Be a little more gentle!"
"You mean like how your bonny boi ex was when he fucked you?"
"Sh-Shut up!" I don't know why but I almost punched him for-
"Ohohoo! He has some fight in him!" He snickered with a sneer look on his face.
Ren came closer, his breath puffing into my face as he said "Hope you like the taste of Oran berries!" I was about to ask whet the hell he was talking about when he suddenly kissed me! His tongue was bigger than Lucifers' and the taste of Oran berries was so heavy that it made me a little sick.
His had still played with my nipple as his tongue was forced into my maw. I actually felt it swirl and push into my throat. It tickled and felt so weird. Suddenly he pulled away, his tongue slowly pulling away from my throat leaving a trail of almost blue spit.
"FUCK, now I see why that bunny wanted you! Humans kiss are so damn good! And you're a throat virgin, too..."
"Honestly... You're so brutal on the poor thing. No passion or class." Swan said.
"Hey screw you, Swan! Besides, the "poor thing'" hasn't complained; in fact, it seems like he likes it. I flinched as his finger drifted across my upper thigh.
"Well you wouldn't say anything to upset a monster who could up and could crush you in seconds." Weirdly enough... That's about right.
"You promised you wouldn't hurt me..." I whimpered. He cackled and smacked my back.
"I kid, I kid, human! As bad as we may seem, we never go back on a promise...unlike HIM." The humorous look on his face turned into one of serious anger. I know already who he's talking about. "Hmm, since you let me have a little fun with you, I'll tell you a bit more."
I got out of his grasp and fixed myself up. He rose up the window a little more to cancel out the noise of the busy streets. "Lucifer...oh, how he was a thorn on our side. You see, he may act as if he's a pure victim, but he's not. At all. In fact...the reason that incident happened, and why his parents ended up dieing...was all HIS fault."
"Wh...What?!" Everything that happened...was HIS doing?! But I thought it was the work of that girl, according to Tyrone... "But I thought that, Sylvia was the one who..."
"Oh, that girl?" Edgar faced me. "You see, he manipulated that girl into doing it, and made her pretend that she was the one behind everything, ruining the lives of her boyfriend and everyone else. The only reason we were involved was because..." His gaze lowered. His voice, it sounds angry, yet...hurt. I know for sure he's telling the truth. He looked back up at me. "Because he would have said WE were responsible for everything, and surely, we would have been killed on the spot."
"Yes..." Swan started talking, now. "That Pokemon...is truly a sick man. Your friend from before...it is Tyrone, I believe? The poor soul, who was to believe that his loved one was an evil lady that tricked the eyes of everyone. I remember the hurt look in his eyes back then, when he confronted her. She wished she could, she wish could tell him the truth, but the fear of what Lucifer may also do to him set her back."
"Tyrone..." So this whole time, the one Tyrone loved so much...truly did love him. And now she's in jail, because she protected these three and her boyfriend...I felt my eyes watering up. These three, Sylvia, and especially Tyrone...he lied to me, him, and everyone else. I truly was tricked in the end, and now he's brainwashing Tyrone into thinking he's just some hurt boy trying to hide away his feelings, and the fact that I even shed tears for him...
Even a serial killer is more forgivable than that guy. I was practically shaking in my seat from anger., but Ren patted my shoulder, calming me down.
"...Now do you understand why we did what we did? And why our attention's only towards his crew?" I nodded. "We have to get back at him. We have to personally express the years of having to run away and being called malicious names because of him, and the immense amount of pain he's caused us, Sylvia, Tyrone, and you. Do...do you want to become part of our crew, in order to do so?"
"!"
The question caught me off guard. Trust me, I want to help them very much, but I...promised Dad...but if it is for a reason such as this, would it count...?...Regardless, my best friend fell out of love and is in pain because of that fucking rabbit. Slowly, I nodded my head. "Of course. I'll be more than happy to."
Lucifer...I'll help to expose you for the truly demonic piece of shit you TRULY are.
...Wow, even I have to say, even we were surprised about the outcome, too. I guess not everyone can always be trusted, huh, but I guess it's to be expected when you're named after the devil :p And sorry that this chapter is so long, hah hah! xD Hopefully, you all will look forward to the next one. Bye!
