Suicidal Dreams

People Are Strange

I can't describe to you how much it still pained me to grasp the idea of my friends being dead.

Waking up every morning without a groggy Kobra was so painful to me because it made me realize I took him for granted.

Not being able to see or hear any of them drove me insane, it made me crave destruction so I could start to feel something.

Missile Kid was still distraught, shed dream about them. She'd force herself to remember dreadful scenes of that day in her head until she starts to recognize their faces.

I held her fragile body close to mine, carefully cradling her back to sleep. She let out tired cries into my chest.

"I'm forgetting their faces," she cried harder.

"HOW DO I FORGET THE PEOPLE WHO SAVED ME!"

I heaved out a breath of air as I struggled to get out of bed once again.

My eyes gloomed at the weary nightfall.

First thing I did was check the motor baby in the room. She laid fast asleep, peacefully, her body hugged itself against the gritty blanket. 

My feet walked over to her so I could kiss her forehead before I left.

I crept out of the room quietly so no one took notice of my nightly disappearance. Just as I was about to walk out the crumbling building, I felt someone staring at me.

"I wonder what Kobra Kid saw in you, besides a good fuck."

Vamos snorted when Vaya decided to open her mouth.

I turned to face the pink haired twin, who was twirling a beer bottle on the coffee table. To the left of the androgynous twin was Vaya. She was sprawled out on the floor with various cans of beer surrounding her.

Just as I was about to sock Vamos in the face I heard low chuckling coming from behind me.

Sitting in the love seat was Val, "she's messing with you."

I shot daggers at Vamos as I ignored Vaya laughing. Pleasing Val I walked away without a fight.

I mounted my bike and hesitantly waited for the man who usually came with me on these late night trips. Just as I was about to leave, the white haired man sprinted towards me.

"What are we going to talk about tonight? How much of an ass I am? What a disgusting affair you've had? How much you want me dead?"

He joked around while I drove towards the diner.

As we approached the diner, I immediately took notice of the shattered window. Anger pumped through my body when I failed to protect the one place I had left of the boys.

I let Val park my bike in the garage as I headed inside to clean up the glass.

Just as I started to clean up I heard loud hushed cursing coming from the rooms. I pulled out my ray gun and signaled Val to shut up when he walked in from the back.

He did the same as I did and walked behind me as I started to near the rooms.

My old bedroom door was cracked open with light spilling out from the small open area.
