flying high (misfits)

nine (episode two) : she's stealing your pension

"And what? You're all special and I'm not? Well I doubt it. You can believe what you want, but I know I have a super power. I just need to find out what it is." Nathan says in distress.

"Maybe you're just super retarded." Alisha sighs. I try not to let out a laugh.

"You'll find it! You just haven't been put in a situation where you need to use it!" I said, looking over at him.

Nathan looks at me and a lightbulb goes off in his head. "Maybe I've got a spider-man thing going on.
Maybe I can climb on the walls and do spider shit."

"Yeah and that makes perfect sense. Why would you be able to climb stuff?" Curtis looks at him confused a we walk on the roof of the community service center.

"I don't know! How is it that you can turn back time apparently. And weird kid can turn invisible." He points to Simon. "And Jane can turn into a fucking dove... It's not like this situation is backed up with a wank load of logic."

We pick up the trash off the floor. I hate community service. I still don't believe that I belong here. I mean, yeah I stole my neighbor's dog or whatever. But does that really mean that I have to go to community service. I love my new friends.. I guess.. But I've only known them for about 4 days and I already killed someone with them. Not to mention have freaky powers... The only really good part is being with Nathan, but he doesn't have the balls to tell me he's into me.

My thoughts get interrupted when I hear Curtis blurt out, "What is that?" We all look up.

To our complete surprise, a naked man lies on the ground. He's not really moving. But I don't think he's dead. He might be asleep. Alisha pokes him with her trash-grabber. "Hey nude guy? You're naked." She says, trying not to burst out into laughter.

The man turns over and to our even larger surprise surprise, he has a pretty large penis for a dirty guy laying in trash. We all turn around and groan in disgust at the random naked homeless man.

"You!" Nathan points.

The naked guy gets up and begins to run away. He trips and causes us all to laugh. The only person not laughing is Nathan. He stares at this naked guy's ass go farther and farther away.

"You wanna tell us who that was?" Curtis says in between laughs.

"He's my mom's-" Nathan cuts himself off and pauses. "He lives with my mom."

"The step douche?" I ask, trying not to laugh. Nathan looks at me and nods.

"Your step dad has a massive cock." Alisha says. We all burst out into laughter. That was probably the most strangest but funniest thing to happen.

"No! Jesus! And technically, he's not my step dad." Nathan says in disgust.

"That was like monster big. Your mom will hurt." Alisha winces at the thought of it. I try not to think of it, but shes right.

Nathan covers his ears. "Lalala shut up!" He looks at Alisha. I let out an uncontrolled laugh.

"Why is he naked?" Kelly asks.

Alisha scoffs. "He's obviously some kind of pervert. Or gay."

"Or he could be a rapist! There's loads of them around here!" Kelly turns to Nathan.

My eyes widen and I look at Nathan. "Is he a rapist?!"

"No!"

"Maybe he's a werewolf." Simon mumbles. This is like the first thing he's said in a long while and it's probably the dumbest thing I've ever heard. I mean, yeah we have Bill and Ted, a guy who can go invisible, a shag goddess, and fucking mind reader. Oh and the fact that I have giant wings. 'maybe he's a werewolf' is the dumbest thing to happen since I've got into community service.

"Twat." Nathan says, pointing at Simon.

Simon looks offended but shy. "It's what happens in films.. You turn into a werewolf, you kill someone.. and then you wake up somewhere naked. Like a zoo."

"He's not a werewolf!!" Nathan turns around, putting the quiet kid out of his misery. "This guy is such a pussy, he needs my mom to open jars for him. I'm sure if he was a werewolf, he'd be able to open a jar of peanut butter by himself."

"What if the storm messed him up?" Kelly looks up. She does have a point..

Nathan sighs. "That's bullocks.. What are the chances."

"Considering that I grew massive wings yesterday, pretty high." I shrug. Nathan looks at me and smiles.

"So what are we suppose to do?" I look at the old people dancing around.

"Help out, talk to them.. Make sure everyone's having a good time." The new lady probation worker looks at us. We all stand in line, like we did yesterday. I'm almost getting flashbacks from then. Except this time, there's old guys running around in the background.

We walk behind her and slowly move around. Kelly, Nathan and I stare this old dude on a wheelchair. He doesn't move and his eyes are close. "Is he dead?" Kelly asks.

"I think he's dead." I stare at him.

Nathan look at the old guy and steps close to him, kneeling down to his ear. "She's stealing your pension!!" He screams into the poor man's ear. The old man wakes up and looks at Nathan. Nathan looks over at us, "no he's fine."

Kelly sighs and sits down. Nathan walks away. I figure this is my shot. I follow Nathan, "this is bullocks, yeah?"

"Yeah, why do we have to..." Nathan's train of thought must've completely crashed.

"Hi.." A pretty, young blonde chick walks past. I turn to face her. What the hell?! She's gorgeous. I thought he was into me. But I guess fucking not.
I look back at Nathan, he's completely fallen head over heels for this new girl.

He followers her and I notice them chatting at the food table. I know I've only knew him for a couple of days.. But what the fuck?!
