Art is Always Watching

Look Alive, Sunshine

I took a deep breath in and out. I knew the draculoids, drags for short, were out there somewhere nearby. I hid behind an outcropping of rock, waiting for the sound of ray guns firing to stop. Only a few blasts later and the deser was still. Not a sound was made: no howling wind, no shuffling footsteps, no firing ray guns. Nothing at all. Only the sound of shifting sand echoed in my head. I was scared to speak out, but even more frightened of staying silent.
I called out, "Frank, Mikey, Ray, Gerard?" I paused between each name, " is anyone there?" A few moments of devastating silence assaulted my ears.
Then, a welcome sound: Gerard shouting back, "Karma, I told you to use our codenames. You're lucky there aren't any dracs around. Now c'mon, we need to get back to the Diner."
I leapt up and quickly brushed the sand off of my grey and black ombré skinny jeans. My black leather vest over a skull patterned purple and red tank top blocked a lot of the blowing sand from traveling into any unwelcome areas. Before traveling back to the Trans-Am, I reached into the tip of my scuffed combat boots to check for both of my purple ray guns. Neon purple with Art is the Weapon on the outside of each, they were my only hope in the desolate world besides the Fabulous Killjoys.
I stood and took off running. It only took me a few minutes to make it back to the car. I sprung into the back and ended up sprawled across Ray and Mikey. They flinched as I landed with a thump. Damn those lovebirds. I moved to sit inbetween them, and I accidentally sat on their entwined hands.
They blushed and moved apart. I smiled at their adorableness. However, Gerard and Frank were nowhere to be seen. I rolled my eyes. Why was I the only mature one around? I get that we do irresponsible things, that was what being a killjoy was about, but we do need to get back to the Diner.
I nudged Mikey's shoulder and whispered, "Hey, Kid, go find your brother and Ghoul. We need to get out of here before more Dracs show up." Both Mikey and Ray sighed.
Mikey inquired, "Why don't you go do it if you're so worried about them?" I lightly smacked the back of his head.
I said, "You just want to spend more time with your boyfriend. Am I right?"
Ray's ears turned bright pink. Mikey responded, "Maybe...You do know that you rival Poison with your sass, right?"
I smirked and said, "Fine, I'll go, but first, you have to move Kobra Kid." Mikey smiled at my newish usage of codenames and my acceptance of having to go after Gerard and Frank. He did as I asked and slid out of the Trans-Am.
I hopped out of the Trams-Am and looked around. The only cover nearby was a stack of boulders. As Gerard and Frank were nowhere to be seen, that would be the best place to look for them. I started jogging towards the pile. As I got closer, I could hear Gerard's deep chuckle. I peeked around behind the boulder and immediately regretted it.
Frank and Gerard were wrapped in each others arms. Frank's hands were tangled in Gerard's fiery, red hair and holding the back of Gerard's neck, and Gerard's hands were on Frank's hips. I mentally and physically gagged when I noticed their tongues shoved down the other's throat. I thought, 'Damn you, Mikey. I'm not a touchy feely person most of the time. I hate walking into situations like this.'
I quickly covered my eyes and cleared my throat. I said, in my best impression of a teacher, "Please, dears, no PDA. There are sensitive eyes here," I let my voice go back to normal, "mainly mine."
Gerard said, ":You can uncover your eyes now, Karma." I opened them and noticed his immediate smirk. He continued speaking, "Oh, Karma Queen, are you jealous of somebody because you don't have anyone?" He was partially correct. I was a little jealous, but not because I had no one. I was jealous because someone had the person I wanted.
I gasped and placed a hand over my heart as though I was mortally wounded. I replied, "How cruel of you, Party Poison, how cruel. Fun Ghoul, are you really going to let him say such cruel things to me?"
Frank smiled sheepishly and shrugged, so I began trudging back towards the Trans-Am. After a few steps, I took off and yelled, "Race you back to the car, Poison!" Sadly, due to his height, he quickly caught up to and sped past me. When I reached the car, I huffed and mock glared at him. Gerard cackled with laughter.
Frank ended up jogging back to the car and was panting for breath. I felt guilty and said, "I promise, Ghoul, no more races."
He breathlessly laughed and said, "It's not you I'm worried about." As he said it, he was looking right at a certain red haired sass master.
Before anyone could comment further, the radio erupted into sound. Doctor Death Defying had started his program. We all got into the Trans-Am, and I said, "Thanks for the interruption, Doctor D.
Poison cranked up the volume and sped us off down Route Guano. Doctor D started the same way he always did: "Look Alive, Sunshine. For all you crash queens and motor babies, and let's not forget the killjoys. We've rescued another one right out from Bat City. Fabulous killjoys get out to our meet on Route Guano. Now a little music to soothe all you weary souls.
Doctor D started playing "Teenagers" by My Chemical Romance, the band all four of the guys were in before BLInd. I saw Gerard smirk into the mirror at me before singing along. I muttered, "Showoff." then I sung along as well, "Teenagers scare the living
shit out of me."


Notes

I own absolutely nothing. Rate and comment I'd you like. If not, don't. Critique is welcome but please have one nice thing in the critique, it's helpful so I know what I'm doing right and what I'm doing wrong. Any guesses as to who Karma Queen has fallen for?
