Tomorrow Comes Today (sequel to Livin With The Gorillaz), chapter 4
Ch. 4- Dance of the Dead part 2
"Ouch... " I heard myself mumble. Something was wrapped around my hands and ankles. It was uncomfortable. I open my eyes...
"Hello love." Says Murdoc sitting in front of me. Speechless, I tried to move but when I checked myself I saw that I was tied up with thick rope. Looking around again I found myself sitting in a chair in his Winnebago. "All tied up?" he asked as he stands up then pops a cig into his mouth.
"I'm having a bloody nightmare... " I say to myself.
"Oh no love, its real." He says as he pets me on the head like a puppy or a small child. My neck hurt; there was a pulse of pain beating from a certain spot on my neck.
"Ouch... What's wrong with my neck... "
"Looks like a bite mark love." He chuckled. He touches my neck and begins to sting.
"OW DAMNIT!" I scream. "I guess you are real... "
"In the flesh. I want my revenge for you two leaving me in that bloody dump. Well, 2-D had his share of pain... " he snickered. My jaw hits the floor.
"WHAT DID YOU DO TO HIM MOTHERFUCKER?!" I snapped. Murdoc blew a puff of smoke not even phased by my angry language. He picked me up over his shoulder. I raised my head and saw 2-D lying on the ground. Hanging over his shoulder and struggle and manage to knee him in the chest. It was a stupid move because he dropped me after I did so.
"AW BLOODY FUCKIN HELL!" he yelled. I landed hard on my back. I rolled down the steps on the Winnebago and hit the door. I began kicking the door furiously to get out but Murdoc grabbed me and dragged me back onto the floor. "Love, you really need to stop doing that... "
"DAMNIT UNTIE ME!"
"I'm afraid I can't do that. You see I'm not done with you just yet."
I sat up, inching away from him. He walked over to me, putting his cold hand onto the pain of my neck. I winced at the pain, before I could say anything; he came in contact with my lips. The smell of smoke was making my mind foggy. But I heard the door open and WAM! More like a hollow pipe sound. Murdoc falls to the floor beside me, which gives me the chance to see 2-D standing there with a cig in his mouth and dried blood trickling down his forehead. He held a lead pipe in his hand. He looked pissed.
"He's really gonna kill me now... " he mumbled. He kneeled beside me and began to untie me. When he finished I stood up, rubbing my wrists. We got out of the Winnebago, walking into my room.
"What did he do to you?" I asked while walking into my bathroom.
"Hit me with that lead pipe... Choked me... Threw me around." He replied sitting on my bed. I looked in the mirror at my neck. There was a badly bruised bite marks on my neck, you could see where it had bled a little. I came out of the bathroom with bandages, alcohol and sat next to him.
"He bit me... " I said while pouring alcohol on a rag.
"He what?" he asked. He pushed my hair away from my neck. He winced as I rubbed the wet rag on his forehead.
"It burns." He grabbed the rag from my hands and wet it with the alcohol. Putting it gently on my neck, I almost screamed in pain, but remained calm. As he did so, I began wrapping his head up in a bandage. I noticed that there were hand marks on his neck. Murdoc must of tried to kill him... He wouldn't do that. We jumped when the phone rang, 2-D picked up the phone next to my bed that sat on the floor.
"Ello?" he answered. "Yeah... Starts at 8:00? Yea we'll be there... Tre who?"
I looked at him when he mentioned Tre. I took the phone,
"Hello?"
"HEY LEX!"
"Hey... Ash... "
"What's wrong? You sound sickafied."
"More like freakin hurtified... What's this about Tre?"
"Eh? Oh well Tre just arrived at our house out of the blue. But we have no place to put him... "
"Can't you put him on the pull out bed on the couch?"
"No its taken remember? Denise and Willie are coming tomorrow."
"Oh yea... "
"Can he stay with you guys for a little bit?" I put the phone down and looked at 2-D, he was busy cleaning himself up. I put the phone back to my ear.
"I guess he could take 2-D's room."
"Great! He's on his way... By the way you never told me what was wrong with you-"
"Bye Ash, see you at the party... " I hung up the phone. 2-D wrapped his arms around me and we both lay on the bed tired.
"A friend of ours is coming to stay... He needs your room."
"Mmmhmm... " mumbled 2-D. "I'm sleeping with you." He chuckled.
HOURS LATER....
I woke up at the sound of banging on my door... I look at the phone; which has the time on it. 9:00pm.
"LEX?! ARE YOU IN THERE?!" shouted Ashley.
"Maybe she's in that motor home thing." Said Tre. I then shot up, falling off the bed, tripping over my feet and hit the door.
"WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?!" screamed Billie Joe. I stood up, opening the door. I saw all three friends standing in the doorway.
"Go in there and it's possible that you'll get killed, raped, or beat up." I said blocking the car park lights out of my eyes.
"LEX!" yelled Tre. He held out his arms and gave me the biggest bear hug ever.
"TRE! * gasp * AIR!" Tre let me go. Ashley poked my neck,
"What the fuck?" I heard her say.
"Ow... Look I'll have to tell you what happened tomorrow... Me and 2-D are beat-"
"I'll say, damn you looked like you were drug around in a mosh pit." Said Tre.
"2-D's room is right there next door." I pointed.
The next morning... More like afternoon...
"Brother... Sister too...
Do what you must do...
Don't trust people you meet...
Yea, yea...
They might promise you...
That the river ain't deep... " sang 2-D in a small tone. I opened my eyes, rolled over in bed to see him smiling. "Evening. Feeling better?" he asked pushing the hair out of my eyes. My neck still hurt but I nodded anyway.
Knock Knock...
"Lex?" said Tre.
"Yea?" I called out.
"Can I come in?" 2-D and I lifted the covers to make sure we were dressed.
"Yea."
He opened the door,
"Am I interrupting something here?" he laughed.
"No... " said 2-D.
"Damn man I know I never met you but when was the last time you cleaned your room?!" 2-D sat up and popped a cig into his mouth, staring blankly at Tre.
"What of it?" said 2-D. I saw Tre jump...
"WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOUR EYES?!" he shouted.
"WHAT IS IT TRE?!" I yelled over him.
"Oh... Um, Ashley called and said to get over there now and help set up the place.
Me and 2-D got into out Halloween Costumes, I didn't get to shred my shirt up like I wanted to but oh well. Before we left we saw Murdoc walk out of his Winnebago in tight black pants, no shirt, huge belt, black sun glasses, black hat, and a black leather jacket.
"I'm coming too... This joker invited me." He pointed at Tre. We didn't argue with him nor talk to each other then. We took one of the cars in the car park then headed over to Ashley and Billie Joe's.
"Ouch... " I heard myself mumble. Something was wrapped around my hands and ankles. It was uncomfortable. I open my eyes...
