A THUNDER AND LIGHTNING AU STORY

CHAPTER 3

The next place we decided to go was to the house of one of Will's friends. It wasn't any of the ones who were missing with Will, it was a different dude who always gets him in trouble at school. Will could have possibly been there because he goes there whenever he's bored, or when he just wants to hang out with the dude. But the thing was when we stopped in front of the house. There appeared to have been a party going on.

The lawn was littered with red cups, streamers, and passed out people. Tavis and I were mortified.

Let me tell ya, if I could count the amount of times I stepped on a persons hand, or about stepped in a puddle of puke. I couldn't.

Once we walked inside we were appalled by what we saw. This wasn't something I'd like to ever recall but peer pressure was by far, over used in this house. There was so much smoke, and I was suddenly so hungry. I'd never seen so much of this use. It made me wanna be more aware of the kind of people Will hung out with.

"Kom," a girl in black hair and blue eyes said angrily to this one chick who seemed quite dazed. "I knew you stole my money. But how can that be when I gave you the rest of my paycheck last week?"

"I dunno," The dazed girl, or Koma slurred. "I spent it. I needed more money. I'll pay you back tommorow,'kay? Now will you stop blockin' my way, I need to get through."

The blue eyed girl looked at her furiously, yet calm. "No, Koma because I want to let you know something. You are to never be in my room ever again, nor borrow any money from me again. You obviously need help."

In case you're wondering reader. Tavis and I had been trying to not gawkk at them as we stood there watching the scene, but we couldn't help but have some interest in it. Everyone else in the room was gawking too.

"Move Donna, I gotta call X," Koma said frustratedly as she tried to get past Donna. But Donna weren't to have that happen. She gave her a defying look.

"No, Koma." She crossed her arms. "You're going to either give me back the money you may have in your pocket, or you're going to go up to your room because I can't take your behaviour any longer."

"But we're friends!"

Donna cocked her head to the side. "If you were my friend you would've been respectful in MY house, you would've gone sober, you would've paid rent two days ago. Not hightail your butt in here like this, when you've started the party. And guess what, I'm a designated driver."

Koma laughed, still trying to pass her, but still she wouldn't be allowed through. "Cum on Donna, I'll be better tomorrow, it's not my fault you have to be everyone's mommy and designated driver. Jus let me through."

"No, go up stairs."

"No, let me through. Pleez."

"No, or I'll call your sister to come and pick you up," Donna threatened. "Because I know how hurt and embrassed she would be to see you like this. Wait- but you know what/ I might just do it now."

Donna had turned around, and I'm guessing she'd been about to go to a house phone but to Koma's chagrin Koma grabbed Donna's ponytail and pulled her back. "You can't call my sister! She hates me."

"But she can help YOU!" Yelled Donna pissed, as she pushed Koma away from her. "And don't touch me, or you'll have to walk your butt somewhere else. I'll have your things sent to you tomorrow!"

Kom's face turned red. "You wouldn't dare do that." She pushed Donna back and turned to walk away. But Donna wouldn't let that do without a fight.

Tavis and I moved a bit when their scuffle happened. Their was a lot of grunting and cursing. Hair pulling and scratching. Kicking and punching.

The guys seemed to have been entertained by this because some were on Donna's side, but a majority were on Koma's, they were betting money, probably turned on. Two hot chicks fightning was kind of hot, but seriously it was a bit flustering. Nonetheless, Tavis and I mutually sided with Donna.

Obviously, she knew how and what to do in a fight. She knew the exact time to duck and hit. Koma obiously was a bit sloppy because she was buzzed.

After perhaps, five minutes, Donna shut the door after she threw Koma out, and then consulted with a girl with blonde hair and red boots. After the blonde headed girl walked away Tavis and I approached her.

"Hello," she greeted pleasantly. She seemed to know who we were, but we didn't know who she was. "What do you guys need, Gan and Tavis?"

She must have seen our face expressions because she laughed and said, "you guys are talked about quite a lot by Will and a couple of faces around here, so ya know when word gets around about someone or somethin,' I catch onto it quickly."

We nodded understandly.

"Have you seen Will?" Asked Tavis. "You know, the fat boy with the dingy grey hoody, ye tall, he has big nostrils."

"Yes, of course." She said, nodding, her face turned into a frown. "I actually have seen him, and I'm guessing he isn't supposed to be here?"

"No." It was of course said in unison.

"Oh, well him and his friends, right? Went upstairs." She picked up a spilt cup on the ground that'd rolled onto her feet. "I would escort you guys up there, but you obviously see there are some things I have to take care of."

Leaving her to whatever business she had to take care of we went upstairs to locate Will. We looked in every room. And about to give up, we opened the last door that was at the end of the hall and we found him and his friends. They were drinking some cokes and watching a scary film. I think it was the Grudge.

"Hey!" Said Tavis. "We've been lookin' for you little sh-"

"Kids," I countered in over Tavis before he cursed. "Why did you all decide to pull crap like this?"

Will shrugged. "We were bored, Melvin wanted to watch the Grudge, we knew where to find it."

"Hey, I'm Larry." We looked over at the bad influence who'd said that and gave him a cross look. Tavis and I knew this little guy anywhere. He bagged groceries at the grocery store, was a Bruce Wayne fanatic, and followed this one dude around a lot who we only ever saw around when he was visiting this one hot chick who lives in one of the apartment buildings around here.

I entertwine my hands and patiently asked, "Larry, why are you doing this?"

He looked at us scaredly with his raccoon eyes. "What must you me-"

"We mean," Tavis grumbled. "Why can't you - a fourteen year old dwarf, play with kids your own age?"

He shrugged. "Cuz little kids actually listen to you?"

Tavis and I exchanged incredulous looks. The Hell they do.

"Well, your arugument can't really be proven," I reasoned, "because they don't listen to us, and Melvin you could watch the Grudge at our house."

She didn't say anything. She just held that stupid "imaginary" teddy bear to herself, and continued watching the movie. I still wasn't over the fact that they were watching a scary film it needed to be turned off. Tavis was one step ahead of me. He walked over to the TV, stepped in front of the children, ignoring all their protest, he turned off the TV, or tinkered with the off button for awhile so he could somehow permantley dismantle it. But only I'd known he were to do that.

"HEY!" Yelled Larry frustratedly. "I didn't tell you to turn that off!"

He then ran over to Tavis and abruptly jumped on his back. For a bit, did I watch as my brother tried to wrestle a tiny teeenager off of him. Eventually did I have to come in. If you'd been downstairs in the house, or a room below the room we were in, you would've heard a lot of thumping.

After Tavis cursed more curse words than he cursed in a week, and I punched and kicked more than I did in normal fights, well Donna came running into the room.

"What the Heck is going on in here?" She was wearing a cooking apron, and held a bottle of cleaner in her hand. "I'm trying to get people out of here(it obviously hadn't been a success since there was loud booming music still being heard, and I think there was a couple in the next room...), and I can hardly be heard when all this thumping is being heard from downstairs!"

"Tavvy and Gain were fighting," Melvin said. Pointing at us. "Because Larry wanted to be a doofus."

Yeah, we kind of had forgotten the kids had been in the room when Tavis and I were fighting off Larry. But like I said, Tavis was doing the swearing.

"Don't call me that!" Screamed Larry sniveoulousy. "You BOW DOWN TO ME Melvin."

We couldn't believe Will actually hung out with this guy.

Donna ran over to him and shoved him against a wall. "Do you want me to call your parents. They'd hate to know their Lair Lair has been bad." Her voice sounded like a baby on the last part.

"STOP IT!" He yelled. "Or I'm gonna call the police on assault on all your butts."

I knew Tavis'd been about to say something, and before he did do that. I gave him a look that told him that wouldn't be the smartest thing to do.

Then the look he gave back to me said: "But Brother he's clearly a little sh..."

My look said: "His threats aren't empty."

He just shook his head, chuckling.

After Donna dealt with Larry, she pulled us aside. "Okay, I'm going to be nice and take the kids back home. I'm sorry for all the disrespect Larry has shown, he gets counseling, and the counselors tell him he has a personailty disorder... they say their's nothing to be done about it. I just gave him some meds he forgot to take, so he's tranquil right now."

We nodded understandingly, but it didn't go without a remark from Tavis. "Oh, so I was right, I'd been thinkin' the kid had problems. Jumping on my back.. good thing Gan, you did show 'em whos the big guys here."

I shook my head and gave him a smirk. "Tavis, you know what we jus did wasn't right." I turn and look at Donna. "Well, if you're here when he wakes up can you possibly tell him we're sorry for what we did?"

She nods. Her bright red lip stick glimmering in the dim light. "No problem. I'll get the kids home, I'm having Cassie, a friend of mine, getting things under control around here. If you guys wanna stay you can, I'll tell her not to kick you guys out."

We shook our heards, and declined the offer. No kids on our backs anymore, Tavis and I just wanted to get out of this crowded house. There was so much unlimited space we could take, and the smell of burning plant as well.

As Donna took the kids out of the room, and Larry lulled off to sleep. We quickly ran down the steps and we were soon out the back door into an alley.


A/N: Jus' so you know Melvin and her brothers in this AU are probably about ten, 12-ish? and yeah, they probably shouldn't be watching scary movies. Kids these days...
