Ch:9

"DEVI?...YOU HAVE A LOT OF ANIMAL BODY PARTS IN HERE!!", Tenna called out awkwardly, a little too loudly.
"OH THAT? I FORGOT ABOUT THOSE! LEAVE THEM, I'LL HANDLE THEM!", Devi called back.
"BUT THEY'RE SPOOKING ME OUT! AND I TOUCHED ONE AND IT MOVED!", she whined in fear. The magenta-haired girl sighed.
"They're SUPPOSED to do that, Tenna. ", she grumbled, finishing her paints and moving to the bedroom, laughing.
"I loved those things.", she said, moving to a box in the recesses of her room with animal ears and tails and collars.
"I used to work with animatronics and Cybergothic art and accessories as one of my old jobs as a teenager. These were the last ones I made that were left.", she explained. She grabbed a collar and smiled.

"Most complicated thing I made. It's to make your voice like a cat. You put it on and you whisper 'meow' and it'll capture your 'voicebox' moving and it'll say meow when you do. Whisper a cat hiss and it'll do it. Even purring.", she grinned, not noticing Tenna went off to play with some goggles in her room again. Devi, for the hell of it, put on a black cat tail that swished with the movements of your walking, cat ears that connected to your neck (depending on your head movements depended on how the ears reacted. Like if you tilted your head down, the ears flick back), and the collar. She chuckled at her attire and found more boxes of animatronics in the back and she began pushing them out of her room and to the livingroom. She'd look through those later.

a while passed and johnny finally came back, he had a long colorful chameleon around his shoulders.

Tenna looked over from Devis room and called out.
"DEVI? TWIGGY CAME BACK WITH A DRAGON!", she said, returning to packing up her bedding.
"Welcome back, Johnny!", Devi called out, finishing with the last canvas to put away and she placed it inside a rolling box carefully. She came out and she smiled at Nny, kissing his cheek gently. She looked at the chameleon with a smile.
"It's BEAUTIFUL, Nny! How was your journey through the hell called the world?", she asked, the tail she forgot she was still wearing swaying gently back and forth as she stood.

" it was alright. Hate banks though."

"I'm sure.", she chuckled before moving away a little.
"How are we going to get these boxes out of here? It'd take a lot of trips to move all this stuff...", she murmured, pointing to the boxes with her black cat ears twitching a little.

" i brought movers." he said gesturing behind him.

She glanced and noticed the movers with a blink. She was actually really paranoid they'd break/steal her shit, but she trusted Johnny enough to make the right decisions.
"...WELL!....OKAY THEN!", she said with a little chuckle.
" You can...Uh...chill on the couch or...I don't know...help or...something?", she said awkwardly to Johnny, remembering her attire and ripping the cat ears and collar and tail off her and swiftly turning and throwing them in a box, grumbling a little at the movers giving her looks. She moved to her room and began assisting Tenna with her clothes.
"So what are you and Twiggy gonna do when you both move out of here?", Tenna asked, karate-chopping the air stupidly with the goggles.
"Well...move into the new place...And I'm gonna be able to paint the place up.", Devi replied, pulling out a black suitcase and setting her clothes inside it.
"Then what?"
"...relax?"
"Then what?"
"Why do you want to know?"
"Because the Tenna craves answers."
"The Tenna can be pretty annoying."
"I don't believe that's an answer, Devi-Chan. You put out bad joo-joo vibes.", the girl scolded, squeaking spooky as she chopped and kicked at nothing.
"Well...I'm not really sure what else after that. Probably just relax. I might get a job to pass the time, although we have a lot of money as it is...", Devi replied with a slight shrug, biting her lip.
"So you're going to be doing the same things you were doing already except with a different house and Twiggy?"
"MIND YOUR OWN GOD DAMN BUSINESS, TENNA.", she snapped angrily, throwing her clothes in with a glare. Tenna chuckled and threw the goggles into the animatronics box and began taking down her art.

johnny watched the movers as they picked up closed boxes and took them to the truck.

"Hey. Your boyfriend. He really looks like he knows what he's doing.", a mover said to Devi as he gathered some of the boxes from her room that were already packed up, their conversation seeming quiet compared to the talking and heavy moving of boxes and beginnings of furniture.

"Oh, yeah. Pretty smart guy...", Devi replied absentmindedly as she finished up with her clothes, working on getting her shoes into her suitcase.
"If you don't mind me asking, what's his name? It'd be nice to know what to call the guy when we move this stuff out and all.", the bald man said, beginning to stack boxes on top of each other to better be able to move them. Tenna raised an eyebrow at a new pair of goggles and began putting them into a nearby box, not caring much for the conversation.

"Oh...I thought he would have told you...His name is Johnny.", the girl said, stopping to stretch momentarily and putting her hair in pigtails.
"Ah...I thought so.", the man growled before slowly moving closer. As Devi turned, she saw a flash of white and a loud noise and when she looked up, she was staring at the ceiling.

"Killed my god damn wife. Disembowled her with a fuckin spork. Time for due payment.", he hissed, grabbing the boxes and quickly moving out, an angry glare on. Tenna turned and was screaming for help, wide eyed and holding Devi up, making her put her hand on her diaphram. The man had shot her.

Johnny was out side when he heard the noise and his heart sank a bit when he realized what happened. He raced into the house and saw the man with a gun he pulled out his knife and deeply slashed the guys face deeply cutting both his eyes but making sure he lived so he could do worser to him later. He made it back to the apartment.

Johnny ran into her room, Devi trying to sit up and her stomach bleeding profusely, Tenna pressing a hand to her wound.
" WHAT THE FUCK DO I DO?!", she yelled in panic, the other movers stupidly crowding around to see the ordeal. Devi hissed in pain, looking at the blood on her shirt.
"SHIT...This'ss gonna ruin my whole day...", she breathed, Tenna being the only thing helping her from collapsing to the floor. Both girls were obviously in a state of shock, thankfully Devi more-so so that she couldn't feel the pain she would be feeling momentarily. Tenna was wide eyed and panicking, unsure of what to do and obviously scared shitless and unknowing.

Johnny helped Devi stand and let her lean against him. He grabbed a near by towel and put pressure on the wound. He told tenna to call 911.

Tenna nodded quickly and ran for the phone, calling 911 and explaining quickly what happened.
"Heh... What'rya gonna name it?", Devi whispered, a pained shakey hand pointing to the chameleon clinging to Johnnys shoulder for dear life.
The ambulance and police sirens were heard in the distance, slowly becoming louder and louder as the movers crowded around Devi and Nny.
"ANYTHING ELSE I CAN DO??", Tenna asked, panicking still.

"i thought you should name it." he said, then looked at tenna.

"try and stay calm and get a wet warm towel and tweezers or something to remove the bullet with." he said holding devi against him.

"Stay calm....My best friend got shot in the stomach and I need to keep calm...", Tenna repeated quite creepily to herself, wide eyed as she jogged to get the items.
"...Chester... Chester.", Devi smirked weakly, chuckling a little but only making things worse as she coughed roughly, blood pouring even more from her wound and herself coughing a little of it up. She gripped Johnny roughly, groaning harshly as she fought the best she could to not pass out.

johnny rolled his eyes at tenna before going back to devi.

"what ever you do, dont black out." he said

Tenna quickly returned with the items requested, having to push past the idiotic crowd of men stupidly observing the scene. She practically threw the maniac the utensils and she collapsed to the floor in a sitting position, watching them intently. Suddenly, she got up as quickly as she came and she rushed out the room, staring outside to wait for the ambulance to arrive. By the sound of the sirens and all, they appeared to be close by.

"Do you see...pixie fairies flying around?", the girl inquiered. When Johnny replied no, she smiled softly.
"Neither do I...I guess that's a good sign." When she laughed, she coughed in the process, the pain being obvious and the blood stain on her shirt darkening.
"Nny....it...do something for me.", she asked weakly, holding onto him as she twitched in pain, the agony beginning to quickly set in as she groaned in pain. Devi looked at Nny with her hair now wavy from drying from the shower incorrectly.
"...Smile for me? Please?", the artist asked as she ran a shakey hand gently across his cheek.

he smiled "dont worry, youll be okay." he said. he started cleaning blood away from the wound and the warm towel got rid of some pain. johnny very carefully got the bullet out, which was quite small.

he cleaned more blood off after and looked inside the wound, inspecting it.

"hmm, well it doesint look that bad. it punctured your stomach, as long as i keep it clean it should be easy to fix at the hospital." he said, cleaning out a bit more blood. "want me to give you a pain killer?"

" If it punctured my stomach...stomach acids...", she whimpered, gripping him harder as he began fixing her.
"You're a doctor-thing-person-herb-user. You'd know.", Devi hissed, feeling woozy.

Tenna suddenly began screaming angrily out the window.
"NO, YOU IDIOTS!!! THE HURT ONE'S UP HERE!! THAT'S THE GUY WHO SHOT HER!!! NO, HE DOESN'T NEED FUCKING HELP, SHE'S THE ONE THAT DOES!!!!!", she yelled, the medics taking the man who was holding his eyes into the emergency vehicle.
"GOD, SHE'S UP HERE!!!!!", she tried again, jumping out the door and running downstairs as fast as she could.

"thats why i need to keep it clean. as long as i clean it away it wont cause much damage. and sounds like emergencies here. mite end up taking you myself by the sound of it." he continued cleaning.

Devi watched the maniac blankly as he spoke before chuckling a little and watching his hand work.
"No matter what... so fuckin calm... so fuckin serious... After I get better, I'm only gonna act serious around you n'til you lighten up...", she whispered with a smile.

Tenna opened the front door, but she was still pushed out of the way by peramedics with a stretcher. They ripped past the few movers that were leaving out of boredom and they pushed the stretcher into her room, stepping on boxes uncaringly and throwing Johnny off and grabbing Devi. They strapped her down tightly to the stretcher and pushed her out of the room with the same un-ceremonious fashion of trampling through things and pushing past people like they didn't exist. Many kept speaking to Devi, but they were speaking too fast and too many were talking for Devi to make out what exactly they were saying and they wheeled Devi into the elevator.

Tenna huffed and pushed herself up only to be knocked down again by the paramedics, pouting angrily at them before standing up again and peeping past the front door to watch them wheel her to the elevator.
"...nice folk.", she murmured.

"mmhmm." johnny said before making people leave. he wanted to go make sure devi was fine and hes sure tenna would want to come to, he didint trust the movers alone with the boxes so he just told them to leave and to take what they had now to the new house.

after every one was gone. "come on, lets go to the hospital." he said to tenna as he left.

Tenna was packing some more of Devis things up shakily and she heard Johnny and she quickly nodded, running after him as they left. When they did arrive at the hospital, Tenna took a good look around before saying quietly more to herself," No...I don't like it here at all...Spooky feels a Spooky aura....Bad joojoo shit..."

"well you could always go back home and pack the rest of her things if you dont want to be here." he said.

"No....I must investimagate...I investimagate spooky joo-joo hospital. I'll meet you back at home base in an hour. The password is mattress.", she stated seriously, nodding to him and running off into the hallways searchingly.

johnny just watched her leave then continued to search the hospital.

"Sir? You're here for the recent one, yeah? Come, I'll show you to her room.", an overly tall young male said, nodding to Johnny with black headphones on, walking down a long hallway.
"Technology rocks. Got her fixed up. Just an overnight thing to make sure her stitches'll hold. Got to warn you, though. We had to give her medication to properly....SEDATE her. She'll be a bit WACKY...well...a LOT wacky from what I've seen, but it'll fade away soon. ", the lime-green haired male explained before he tapped on a white door about 9 doors from the main desk.
"In here. Have fun.", he said before uncaringly leaving, humming some song. Sabotage? Maybe.

"SCREW OFF, IZ MY TOAST!!!!!!!!", a slurred female voice yelled from inside the room, staring angrily at a little white moth on her bed.

Johnny nodded and followed the man. he got irritated by his words, but ignored them as he was more concerned with Devi.

he walked into the room and watched Devi.

"are you alright?" he asked looking at her.

The girl tilted her head at the door, her hair down and blinking a little, seeming to be confused.
"...You're.....you're not....where's Willy Wonka? I lost 'im in the chocolate factory... OOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. You're Serious Man. I be serious.", she stated before making an exaggerated serious face, a small white moth with black dots on it landing on the railing beside her bed, that catching her attention more than the male in her room.

Johnny rolled his eyes and walked over. he grabbed the moth and brought it to the window setting it free.

"Thanks. It was trien ta steal my toast.....Who're you?", she asked in a slurred voice, obviously messed up with medication that'd been administered to her.

he walked back over to her bed.

"me, Johnny." he said patting his chest like he was Tarzan talking to Jane.

"...Like....Like Johnny Cash?", she asked, yawning a little before practically throwing him on her bed and pulling him up and hugging him tightly with a smile.
"Your hair smellsslike applz.", Devi purred, snickering drunkly, almost.

*eyes go wide from the sudden grab, but he calms down*

"no, i don't know my last name" he said.

"Nyeaaah ya dooo. CASH! CARTER!...Johnny Carter.... nnnnnneeeeyuh...I'mma call ya a-HEY! A DRAGON!", she suddenly stated, pointing to the ivory wall in which nothing was there.
"IIiii know you're naaame.", she breathed creepily in his hear, nuzzling against him and whining because of the I.V. in her wrist.

"oh god i hope this medicine wears off soon." he thought rolling his eyes.

She snuggled against him more, turning slightly and using him like a teddy bear and within a couple minutes, she was dead asleep, forehead against the crook of his neck and forcing him down against the bed.

Johnny let out a small agitated sigh and just wrapped one arm around her shoulder.

She awoke a couple hours later, groaning softly and gently regaining conscience, releasing the male to rub her eyes gently.
"Whah....Mnn......Wazza time?",Devi slurred from sleepiness, yawning gently.

"its 6:00 in the morning." he said looking at her.

She hummed a little and sat up slowly, groaning and rubbing her eyes.
"Oh, and you can get out of the bed now. I know you don't like being on beds.", she breathed as she attempted to wake up, but was finding it difficult.

he quickly got out of bed once he was free.

She Simply sighed and Hugged herself, eyes averted to the floor. She was contemplating something inside of her for awhile before glancing at him a little.
"Johnny....do you feel happiness?", the girl asked in an almost fearful voice, filled with worry.

" with you, i do." he said with a small smile.

"....are you sure?", she asked, turning more towards him with expression unleaving.
"I've...been having doubts is all... And if i don't make you happy, you should find someone else that does...", Devi spoke softly. She took a mental picture of his small smile. God knows when she'd see it again.

*he came over and hugged her* "devi, you're one of the very few things that make me happy."

" it's just...you never smile...never laugh... You just don't seem happy anymore. You HAVE to have noticed how hard I've been trying to get SOME reaction out of you. Back at the bookstore, you always smiled. Always laughed. It was so great, we could just act stupid and crack up. It's almost like you were more responsive when you HAD demons and we were friends. Now that we're together... It's...just different....", she whispered, hating how emotional she was getting. Her eyes brimmed with tears as she hugged him partially back, still worried and contemplating. He'd made so much of an impact on her back when that she still carried carefree, happy Johnny in her gaze, too afraid to let real Johnny go because of that. Now that she'd been with him, the old him had been fading and..... He was like......he was emotionless. being so, wouldn't nny just tell her what she'd want to hear, but not mean a word of it?

"you were??" johnny said confused. "i thought you were just trying to be a comedian and get me to laugh at your jokes." he said.

"iam sorry. please don't cry." he said wiping her eyes with his sleeve.

"I AM! I'm trying to make you happy! I'm trying to be stupid so you can laugh. So you can genuinely smile and seem happy, but no matter what I do, I just can't make you happy. I miss your genuine smiles and ... I just feel as if I'm not making you happy like I used too and it's scaring me.", she admitted, a tear running down her face. She snatched it off, looking away and feeling weak for crying in front of him.

"please dont be sad. iam sorry that iam not good at showing emotion. ive spent alot of time to get rid of my emotions and iam sure it'll take a long time to get them back. you being depressed isint really helping us much." he said hugging her again.

Devi nodded a little and looked up at him.
"then how can you feel love?", she asked quietly, worried for each other. She sighed, shaking her head and nuzzling gently in his shoulder.
"maybe I'm being overdramatic....", she sighed softly.

"well my emotions are not fully gone, there just damaged. i can still feel emotion, its just that most of the time it isint very strong in certain areas." he said rubbing her shoulder.

She nodded quietly, still upset she just let go in front of him. She hugged herself a bit tighter, finally looking up at him and pulling him down again on the bed, forcing him on it. She wrapped her arms around his neck as he hovered above her, looking up at him with a soft gaze In her eyes.

he laid down next to her pulling her close into a hug and wrapping her inside his jacket. he rested his head over hers.

"....Just wait until the doctor comes in and see's this.", she breathed, smirking to herself and chuckling. She turned them around, being careful of her I.V., to where he was flat against the bed and she was on top of him, straddling him and crossing her arms over her chest with a playful gleam.

"hope i dont get thrown out." he said kissing her on the fore head.

"You won't. I'll keelhaul their Freezy stash.", she said with a smile, moving closer and kissing his neck.

*kisses her forehead agian*
