Ch.13: Saturday night = fun night (Red's POV)
"hey Pur! Can you help me get to that window? ….Again." I looked at Purple, he reading that stupid book again, 'Alice in Wonderland'. "isn't it boring to read the same book over and over again?" I asked approaching him. "no, you have to look at it like a movie in your head, that you're watching for a second time, like you watching 'underworld: evolution' again and again." He looked at me and laid the book down. "do you wanted help to get up there?" Purple pointed to the window above my head. "yeah, I'm to short, well I'm not that short but the window's that high." I said, hating to be a tallest and still not being able to get to a stupid window. I always could reach the cookies jar, so why not that stupid window? "ok c'mon get onto my hands, I'll give you a boost." Pur said, breaking my thoughts. " uh,.. yeah." I placed my right foot onto his hands and reached for one of the bars in front of the window. "got it!" I said and he dropped me as soon as I said that sentence. I climbed to sit next to the window, taking out the screwdriver I stole from Reco's office. I got out the grate in front of the window and opened it, man was I glad to have taken those yoga-lessons! Because it was a very small space I had to turn my body in to sneak out. I sat in the opening of the window and prepared to jump into the tree next to it. The tree was the only one that also reached beyond the great wall that was supposed to keep us in. I jumped out of the tree and onto the ally. I sprinted to my favorite café at the end of the street. O, my way, I quickly passed the intergalactica to pay my old friend Scar a visit. I was now standing on the end of the street in front of café 'the enchants'. I entered, greeting the barkeeper, Geronimo and his girlfriend Apocaliptica. "what shall it be Red?" he asked me firmly. "oh, the usual, you know how I am." I answered smiling. "can't afford to make a change?" Apocaliptica asked, her voice as sweet as a cherry and her eyes glistening like stars. "here, one bloody marry, for a good friend, the first one's on me." Geronimo said placing the blood red cocktail in front of me. "oh? Got something to celebrate?" I asked looking at him, taking a sip from my drink. "yes, me and my Dearest Apocaliptica are getting married over 2 weeks." He said, I almost chocked on my cocktail. "wha! That's great news! Conats." I said, trying not to cough to much. "thanks Red. So any news from behind the closed doors?" Geronimo changed the subject to my asylum life. "yeah, now you say so, Zim has joined us just a couple of days ago. I don't know why they brought him too the asylum yet, but I'll make sure to bring him with me next week." I responded, trying to stay cool thinking about that defect that had cost me my position as a tallest and my luxurious life. "sounds like we have to open a bottle of campaign next week." Apocaliptica joked, I smiled kindly. Finishing my drink. "Geronimo, refill please." I said, setting down the glass. "sure thing Red." He smiled and gave me an other cocktail. "be care full. That's dangerous stuff you're drinking, especially for an Irken." Apocaliptica said. "Red knows his limits sweetie." Geronimo said placing a kiss on her cheek. I drank down one cocktail after the other, finishing my 7TH bloody marry, and starting to feel a little drunk. "how much do I owe you?" I asked Geronimo. "lemme see….5 because you're a friend." He said counting the empty glacis. I paid and leaved the bar. Once back in the dark ally I came from, I climbed onto the container that was standing under the tree. I climbed back into the room, closing the window and placing the grates back. I jumped onto the ground and hid the screwdriver under my bed. I laid down and started to slowly fall asleep. "you'll suffer from a headache in the morning, just wait." Purple said to me, continuing to read his stupid book, I moaned in respond and leaved the gates of the asylum behind me, starting my journey thru my own wonderland.
