Chapter 7
XERIS
‘Araaaaaagh!!!’ I scre-med furiously smashing my phone to pieces with anger. I raked my hair and glared at Tan. ‘I told you to get me something good enough to destroy that idiot socially and financially for hurting the number one woman I love but you got me something he easily escaped from!!!!’
‘I didn’t know he could….’
‘Shut your f-cking mouth you fool!!! It’s your job to know, it’s your job so why didn’t you know!!!!
‘I’m sorry, I j….’
‘Why?!!! Why the hell did you make such a mistake!!!!’
‘I’m sorry, please just calm down.’ I punched the wall and rest my head on it. Ruining him socially and financially was the only way to satisfy my anger without killing him.
‘I can try contacting Red Bullet, she always get things right.’ Phil suggested. He was Uncle Dennison’s and Mizzy’s son. He had this secret contact only him knew, her name was Red bullet. A really devilish girl that always got what she wanted. I’d seen her once but she wore a green mask that matched her green eyes.
She was too fast to catch.
And me saying that is saying something.
‘Call her, tell her exactly what I want before I lose my mind!!!’
‘Just calm down Xeris, you’re freaking everyone out with your monstrous anger. Nobody likes that, not even mom. I wonder where you inherited it from.’ I glared dagger at him then at Tan.
‘Just get out of my sight before I forget whose son you are and plunge a axe into your dumb skull.’ I hissed.
‘Sorry Tan, you know how he is when anger takes over his sense of reason.’ I rolled my eyes, Tan smiled understandingly. I would apologize later. ‘Come on big bro,’ he pulled my bicep and dragged me out of our base. ‘When last did you release your tension on a girl? You’re stressed out.’
‘Mom left Xeron, I might not like dad but I care about him in a tiny bitty affectionate sickening way. I also care about mom, she’ll be in pain now.’
‘I thought you didn’t want them together since you want to marry her.’ He said sarcastically lighting up a cigarette.
‘You know I can kill you, right?’
‘Yeah I know but you just have to calm down. You really went off on Tan back there, your best friend if I may add.’
‘You’re my best friend.’ He smiled and nudged me.
‘Then listen to your best friend and smile, apologize to him later?’
‘Yea.’ I looked down. ‘What do we do to bring back mom?’ He puffed out smoke and smirked.
‘I already have a really crazy idea but I doubt you can keep up with it.’
‘You or me?’
‘Me.’ He chuckled. ‘I’ll tell you when I get back.’
‘Where are you going to?’
‘I have a hotel room reservation, remember?’ I rolled my eyes. ‘You’re trekking.’ He grinned and waved my car keys. I chuckled.
‘Stop smoking.’ He puffed out smoke from his nostrils and gave me his middle finger.
‘Don’t get drunk Xeris.’
‘I never get drunk,’ I reminded him.
‘You haven’t drank real alcohol, I’m a pro, I’ll know.’ He beeped my car open and got it. I watched him drive away with my car, stupid boy.
‘Hey,’ Tan said from behind me. ‘Need a lift?’
‘Yeah, d*ckhead stole my car.’
‘I can see that.’ He sauntered to his motorcycle.
‘Sorry about what I said.’
‘I know.’
‘I hate your ride.’
‘I hate your face.’ I laughed and jumped into his back. ‘Idiot!!!!’
#LYRA
I got to school very early to prepare for my own epic prank, I met Hilda there fixing something.
‘Are you always everywhere?’
‘I came here to prank the devils that pranked you.’
‘How?’
‘Because no one hurts my friends and get away with it. I only have one friend and that’s you.’
‘Thanks babe, love you.’
‘Don’t honey me up and get ready for an epic prank…any idea how to prank them?’
‘Xeron I do but not Xeris for now no.’
‘For now,’ she grinned. ‘Now let’s get to work.’
#XENA
I stared at Xeron and Xeris suspiciously, something didn’t feel right about them, like they were hiding something. I knew they weren’t normal fools but I was hoping they could change but why worry anyways.
‘Where did you two sleep last night? Dad was worried about you both.’
‘You mean dad was worried about Xeron.’ Xeris said laughingly. It’s hærd to detect when they are truly lying. Today we were teaching, Xeron was teaching, well, Xeris was but he hadn’t started yet.
The only reason we were still in the school was because we were jobless.
We didn’t want to fully let music take over our lives so we wasted our time in the lame school.
I don’t really know how to do anything other than rap, dance, cook and worry for my brothers. I can’t sing, if I do, you’d wish you were never born. Xerra and the others took all dad’s singing talent. Xerra was the most beautiful with all of mom’s beauty and elegance.
Xeris stood up to go teach, he stood in front of the class. He started teaching, when a bucket of c*ckroaches landed on Xeron’s head.
Uh oh.
He scre-med, jumping around and scattering his hair, the student all ran out scre-ming too which was good because Xeron fainted.
#XERIS
Xeron was trembling, the c*ckroaches were all gone but he was trembling
It was lunch time, he was looking around shaking. He wasn’t afraid of death, yet he was afraid of c*ckroaches, spiders and worms. I don’t know why, he’s just scared.
‘We need to calm him down, we need to sing.’ Xena whispered.
‘He’ll mess up the music, you know how he gets when he’s on c*ckroach alert.’
‘Yeah, that will help.’ Tan murmured stylishly moving back to stare at her flat ass. He’s got it bad for her. She was the main reason he stayed back in California but he just couldn’t spill the beans. Good thing though, Xena will crush his heart to unamendable pieces.
‘What are you staring at?’
‘Er…er….er…’ He glanced at me for help. ‘I was…er….looking for more c*ckroaches….’
‘Where!!!!’ Xeron shouted jumping out of the table and falling flat on his face in the process.
‘Tan,’ Xena whined. ‘That wasn’t funny….’
‘Hey everyone!!!!’ I shouted climbing the table. ‘We have something to sing, something we just wh¡pped up. You ready?’
Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Xena climbed the table too and pulled trembling Xeron along.
‘We haven’t given the song a name but hope you like it.’ Xena chuckled staring at Xeron who was muttering “c*ckroaches.”
In a typical music school, there’s always musical instruments everywhere. Tan got us mikes and installed the MP3 player Xena gave him. My eyes searched for Lyra and her red haired friend but they were nowhere to be found.
(Note, read the lyrics, it’s important)
♪ Everybody here in the house
Come do exactly what I ask
What I seek is a little bit fun
So don’t you dare tryna take a run
Tonight I’m going
High, wild and crazy
Can’t you see me laughing
At you baby?
I’m drunk and yes
My memory is hazy
Come on, try to keep up
With my dizzy pacing….♪ Xena rapped as we both watched Xeron who was still reciting the incantations. I nudged him.
♪ cause I just wanna live
My life the way I want
Silly, don’t you get it?
Life is sort of short
Any minute you can get hurt
c-ckroach it while it’s hot
Don’t mistake it ya
I didn’t say live stupid. ♪
I couldn’t laugh, he was in c*ckroach kick and that was just the beginning. I tried to help him get over his fear once but I only made it worst and added c*ckroach words to it.
♪ this is my own way of daring
My own little way of caring
Not for you damn it, just for me.
It’s not like I’m saying smoke weed
Nay dude, that’s foolish evil deed
I just said have some fun
It’s all you’ve got
Now life is on.
Music on,
The house will certainly shake
Stomping dance,
The earth will eventually quake
Boys and girls
If it’s more than you can take
That’s the door
The choice is for you to make
Floozies in the house
A total t-rn on.
Floppy unclad ass
I can’t take the mo-ns
F-cking drunks in the yard
This is all so fun ♪ I sang as I held Xeron in place, he wanted to jump over the table and run.
♪ Switching styles
Like I made it
Shaking the floor
Dizzy a bit
Reasonable fun
Is what I’m made for
No need no boys
I can’t just take it
I’m never gonna change
So don’t you call me strange
I’m thinking of quitting
But maybe at 89
Oh, don’t you know
I ain’t slacking
Better believe it
I’m not ready to go
‘c-ckroaches is everywhere,’ Xeron whispered in my ear.
‘Just sing.’
‘But…’
‘Please.’
♪ Imma wanna c*ckro….dance
Baby do you have a c*ck…..chance
If yes, give me your hands
We can make the night last
As long as there is no c*ckroach
Our dancing is dope
I stepped on a c*ckroach
Me and you standing so close
My eyes glued to your c*ckroach nose
I’m not crazy Xeris, shut up
What do you expect me to do!
I bathe in c*ckroaches
They haunted my dreams
Why do c*ckroaches exist?!
I felt one in my hair
I perceived them in the air
My eyes are turning to c*ckroaches
And I’m losing my f-cking mind!!!!! ♪ he breathe heavily and threw the mike away. ‘What?!’ He snapped. I was the first to laugh, I fell on the table laughing my stomach out. He would regret everything later. Everyone laughed including him. We were still laughing when Tan who wasn’t laughing by the way prodded me.
‘What?’ I whispered.
‘His head,’ I looked at his head, my jaw dropping. The rest people’s smile froze to their faces. ‘Uh oh.’
‘Why are you all looking at me like that?’ The spider on his head crawled down to his face. He started trembling. ‘Is there a spider on my head?’
‘Just hold still,’ Wells trailed off carrying something that looked like a carbon baseball bat. ‘Everything would b….’
‘Wells don’t!’ It was too late, Wells smashed the bat on Xeron’s head. His eyes rolled back and his body slumped unconsciously.
‘Wells! You idiot!’ Xena shrieked distraughtly.
‘I’ve almost got it…’ He smashed the bat on Xeron’s body repeatedly, trying to crush the spider. Tan dragged him away while Garry revived Xeron. I was chucklingly silently. He sat up with a gro-n, saw the spider on his p-nts and fainted again.
That was it. I burst into laughter, rolling and falling off the table.
That was epic!
Who pranked him?
 
 
To be continued.
Lyra’s epic prank is yet to be over.
