I get to update..this chapter seems like a long one,(oh, and like the others haven't?) I was planning a shorter chapter, but I just ended up adding more to it. so, yeah, enough of mah ramblin', enjoy chapter 8 :D (MOAR SQUIDS!!!) *grins evilly, then throws random Mexican candies on the floor*(don't like 'em? Fine, don't eat 'em... go find something you do like) SHUDDUP ME! OK! STOP READING THIS! go now, while you can before i go insane...
~~Mitch POV~~
Me and Jerome decided to go to the park. "Hurry up Biggums!"Jerome yelled from the living room. I decided to leave my checkered jacket behind, no way I'm going out like that in this heat, I ran downstairs where he was waiting by the door. "Let's go." I said, and I shut the door behind us.
~at the park~
"Well, it is better than being stuck in the house all day." Jerome said as he leaned on a tree. "Yeah." I was still standing, just staring into space for no reason. I started staring at the clouds. "Mitch, Sit." "What?" I turned and Jerome patted the spot next to him. I walked over to him and sat down. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. Despite the fact that it was hot, it was pretty nice outside. I took a nap and stayed there for what ended up being hours when I felt something land on my lap. I opened my eyes and saw Jerome, who had fallen asleep apparently.
He started mumbling, then went quiet again. I decided I'd have to carry him home. I felt bad to wake him though. "Jerome?" I gently shook him. "Hmm?..what is it?" "Let's go home." "But Miiiitch..I'm tired. I don't wanna get up." "Just stand up, I'll carry you the rest of the way." He sighed and stood up. I had him get on my back, he wrapped his arms around my neck, laying his head on my shoulder falling back to sleep. Finally, I got to the house and unlocked the door. "Go upstairs Jerome, I'll be up in a bit. "Ok." he got off my back and moped up the steps.
I grabbed some water bottles and went back upstairs. "Here," I said walking over to Jerome and handing him one. He was still half asleep. "Thanks." He drank it quickly, then set the bottle on the small table next to him. "I'm so tiiired.." he groaned. It was about 5 or 6, guess it wouldn't hurt to sleep a bit early(yeah, a bit). I layed down and he nuzzled his head into my neck smiling. "I love you Mitch." "I love you too, Fluffy." I smiled and kissed his forehead, then fell asleep instantly. Jerome started shaking me "Mitch, get up..." "What time is it?" "It's seven in the morning." "Auughhh..why did you wake me up so early?" I looked at him and he had a look of fear in his eyes. "Jerome? What's wrong?" I asked sitting up and placed a hand on his shoulder.
"The squids have started destroying the city and everyone is downstairs." "Why?" I asked, starting to get even more worried. "Jason's hurt, Quentin, Tyler, and him are downstairs. Along with Bash,Bodil,and Seto. They all ran here last night." he looked like he was trying to hold back tears. "What about Brice?" "The squids got him while they were coming here." I got up slowly and walked towards the window. There were squids everywhere, I could see the main part of the city. Most of it was on fire, some of the Recruits and the Dead Army were out there fighting them off as best as they could. I walked back to Jerome and helped him up, "Let's go check up on the guys." he nodded and we rushed downstairs.
Tyler and Mudkip were by the couch trying to help Jason as he was crying in pain. I rushed over to them. "What happened!?" I saw blood on the floor and noticed an arrow in Jason's arm. "Take this stupid thing out!!It hurts so much!" he was now yelling. "We're trying Jason! Calm down!" said Tyler as he tried to pull out the arrow, only earning more bloodcurdling screams from Jason. I tried to help and we tugged at the arrow again, it just wouldn't budge. "Jason, try to calm down a bit, we'll get this out soon ok?" I looked up to see Jerome huddled in a corner crying. Screams could be heard from outside the house. Luckily, Seto had thought of putting some sort of spell over the house so they couldn't get in.
