G- Haunted
The one and only Chapter
Many know that an entity haunts the cell phone(s) that artist Gerard Way is in possession of, however, how did this phantom get into this technology? Why is it there? What is it exactly? Why Gerard’s phone? Our story begins long ago when the Gerard was part of the most uncool band to ever rule the world, My Chemical Romance. This band made uncool the new “fucking awesome”. They became so big everyone wanted a piece of them. It was a rough life.
One day at a large festival, after rocking so hard, the band went out to greet fans. Everyone in the band was hot, sweaty, and really-really smelly (like body sweat, stage makeup, and not so freshly washed performance clothes). One of the food vendors walked by their tent after their incredible performance and couldn’t help but notice the smell. She wanted to help them, but you can’t just go up and offer to wash their clothes for them, especially with the security. She did the only thing she could think might work, she went to a self-claimed “high voodoo priestess”.
Our food lovely food vendor parked and walked down the street to a store with a huge Vegas style sign that says “High Voodoo Priestess Kalieha!”. She walked into the store with plans to help these poor guys out.
“High priestess Kalieha, please these men need help!” She begged the voodoo fraud.
Kalieha smiled, “I’ll tell you something child, I’ll summon up the laundry spirit for half price today.” Our food vendor’s face filled with excitement. “However child, you must stay and help me summon the spirits help.” Our food vendor agreed.
Kalieha turned down the lights and lit the pumpkin scented candle in the middle of the Ouija themed coffee table. She grabbed the poor food vendor’s hands and told her to imagine the members of the band. She started chanting, at first the words were unrecognizable, but it sounded like she was humming “Helena” (One of the bands staples). She stopped humming and started chanting,“oh voodoo washing spirits please lead these men to a Laundromat!” and “Clean these men up” and “help them through this time.” Then Kalieha turns on the light takes the food vendors money and asked her to leave.
Though Kalieha was a fraud, the “voodoo” spirits decided to check out just how truly horrid the smell of the band was. The were shocked at the stench, and hey decided to help , however, only after the band decided to wash their clothes without their help first.
The spirits waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, until they got bored, so they started messing with stuff. They knocked equipment over, they constantly threw air fresheners and deodorizers on the floor to see if anyone would get the hint, then one day after all that didn’t work they decided to take it up a notch. One of the spirits found something he liked… a cell phone, Gerard’s cell phone. He started butt dialing people and sending random static messages to people, and having a good old time.
Finally, the band washed their clothes. The spirits were thankful. They continued to secretly influence the men to keep their clothes clean, until they were no longer needed. Most of the “laundry” spirits left except for the one who became addicted to the cellphone.
The spirit hasn’t left to this day, actually he’s even more of a cellular addict now with smart phones having applications like temple run and angry birds. He’s never bored now. However, he’s been moving phone to phone, not only becoming attached to Gerard but his twitter profile as well. The Spirit now goes by the name G. He’s addicted to twitter. He might need some help.
Does anyone know a therapist for the dead?
Notes
So this was a short story I wrote one day. I know it's not the greatest... I figured I'd post a fun short story for my first post on here.
I read it two minutes after writing about someone getting cancer, so I needed cheering up!.. Thanks! Xo
