Peace Without A Sword Act I Part I

Peace Without A Sword serves as the sequel to trEND. The entire story was written from 3/1/13 to  3/27/13 [Act I from 3/1/13 to 3/23/13] [Act II from 3/23/13 to 3/27/13].


Four persons of undisciplined gusto have broken out of what they defined as confinement. They only have vague ideas as to who they are. However, they knew from the prejudice directed to their livelihood, they were not children; but spawn.
Spawn with a bloodlust no massacre would suffice; sexual cravings not even skilled harlots could quench. These were no ordinary spawn and they wanted to know why.
The makeshift leader is by the name David; his second-in-command is by the name Victory; the intellect is by the name Madler; the worst off emotionally and out of the group is named Blyvy. David feared that he inherited his father’s complex. Victory feared she could blend in with ruthless people even if she were begging for help. Madler’s complex (though subdued on the surface) is enough to bring him to an early demise. Blyvy knew her genetic makeup would scar her from conception.
The four had sealed themselves off in a locale made notorious by their parents...the grounds of what was once the Derby Theatre. They had turned the wreckage into a cocoon of defensive mechanisms. Each had mastered a fighting technique they knew of their parents. Once all of age to embark onward from their makeshift home, they gathered their belongings and then set that wreckage house on fire.
“We have to find that bookstore and assure that nothing will be preserved.” David said. “If we do find that bookstore, what good will destroying it bring?” Victory queried. “Roots of our hubris aside, priceless physical tomes could be destroyed in the process.” Blyvy interjected, “We’d save the books worth a damn you fucking troglodyte! You’re acting like we’d burn down the entire place out of revenge. Don’t turn stupid this late in life.”
Madler was able to locate a vehicle similar to a type made famous by their parents. “What say we carjack these fuckers?” He grabbed the unsuspecting motorist, bashed his head on the steering wheel, tossed him aside and shouted “Fuck your couch!”
Blyvy congratulated him the only way she knew how. “I see you charmed your way in this piece of shit ‘motorcade’. Next time, get something that doesn’t resemble an Israeli street at 2:00”. He retorted, “Just for that you ride on the roof. Your face already looks like Seamus, so get to the roof bitch.” She spat in his face, then was promptly scolded by Victory. “Blyvy; what have I told you about spitting in a man’s face?” “Only do it if he tries to cop a feel.” she snapped back. “No, Blyvy. I didn’t say that. Don’t spit in people’s faces if you haven’t brushed your teeth first.” “Practice what you preach with a fucking toothbrush Victory. Your mouth probably has missing bodies inside.”
“If you’re done being bitches...” David began. “...which one of you has the name of the bookstore?” “I do.” Victory replied. “It’s...Mama Joseph’s.” “Mama Joseph?” Madler began. “That name sounds familiar. I swear I must’ve met her or had a glance at her before.” “How can that be?” Blyvy replied. “She’s been dead as long as we’ve been alive.” “Someone from my life that’s not my Dad told me about this woman who resisted the E-book wars. She resisted so much so, she had the balls to go on national TV and say ‘I fucking hate E-books; End the trend!” Madler said. “Sounds like Mama Joseph to me.” David began. “Now do you know where her bookstore is?” “Yes I do.” Madler replied. “It was the only one without E-books. It’s not that far from where we are now.”
They traveled in their dune buggy, but Blyvy grew uncomfortable. “Something tells me we’ve stepped into a trap.” “What the fuck are you babbling about?” Victory queried. “This isn’t booby-trapped, right Madler?” “No boobs unless I look at you and Blyvy.” he cheekily replied.
“Oh, you adorably piggish, uncouth scamp you. I’d slit your throat if you were straight.” Blyvy said. “No more bitching from anybody else!” David yelled. “I’ve been circling the bookstore for 5 minutes.” They embarked on the grounds of which their parents fed into their bloodlust. “No turning back from this point on.” Victory said.
They set foot into the surprisingly well kept bookstore. Madler scanned the grounds high and low to see if anybody was out to kill them. “Nobody’s here; nobody left bombs, landmines or other shit behind to kill us.” he said. “There has to be some kind of juju on this place. While it could protect us, it’s something we do not deserve.” He, Victory and David set up to sleep for the first time in days. Blyvy was still convinced that they would not change their fates. She examined the dune buggy Madler had hijacked. It wasn’t until examining the chassis and color, did she sense something afoot.
“This is not the car’s natural color. If this is a metallic cornflower blue, it’s over before it started.” she murmured. She scraped off the paint covering the true color of the dune buggy. As she feared, the car was a metallic cornflower blue. “Oh shit. We’ll never escape...we are slowly becoming our parents.”
Meanwhile, David was wondering about his connection to Madler. “There has to be something about him that’s had me put up with his shit this long.” he thought. When he went to turn over, he noticed a presence. A lukewarm feeling he wasn’t used to. He opened his eyes and saw Madler next to him. “Wh-what the fu...” he was shushed by Madler. “I can read thoughts...sort of. Only when someone thinks I’m sexy.” “How did you know?” David asked. “I look into mirrors when I have a chance. Now are we fucking or what?” Madler replied. Before David could answer, Madler slipped him his tongue. The sexual musk they exuded was a fusion of honey and ketchup.
The next morning, Blyvy alerted everyone of her findings. She ushered them to the garage to see how they were doomed. “Oh no...this can’t be happening.” Victory murmured. “Oh believe me, bitch. It is happening.” Blyvy said. “We’ve never been here, but something says we can locate the damn weapons case blindfolded.” Madler said. David simply announced, “I already found the case.” “What the fuck?! When were you going to let us in on this?” they said in unison. “Come with me and see what fate has fucked us over with.” David replied.
He ushered the rest of them to the weapons case. They saw the very tools of destruction that made their parents nefarious. “We could still destroy these and be cleansed of our parents’ sins, right?” Victory queried. “This message I pulled from the case does not suggest that.” David began. “It says, ‘To our kids: you will hear a lot of things about us. You’ll hear that we were and always will be hyper-violent, hypersexual, vindictive, cynical, sarcastic and cheap individuals. Let us tell you now; we are not cheap.’ How touching, right?” Blyvy said, “Keep reading the letter. I want to find out how many things I can resent against my mother.”
David kept reading the message. Even through the sexual encounters between his father and Madler’s father. “The word ‘abyss’ was a nickname and not on his birth certificate?” Victory snided. “Shut up, you whore.” Madler said. “Here’s the good stuff...or at least as good as it’s going to get for us.” David began. “It says, ‘If you want to rid of our sins from screwing you over, simply one up us.’ Oh fuck. Blyvy, you read the rest of this.” Blyvy read the remainder of the message.
“To one up us, do what we couldn’t. Obliterate the Grammy Awards for their support of lurid music. Doing this is the only way to cleanse yourselves of us.” she read. “So we’re never going to be free of them unless we make ourselves look worse than they do.” Madler said. “Damn them to hell.” Victory said.
They assumed the weapons their parents did. A bleak feeling of acceptance overcame them all. “We didn’t even try to stop this.” Blyvy noted. “We tried enough by burning down The Derby. Maybe it’s a sign that we can reverse this.” Madler said. “You might be right. Nothing in the message hinted at subtext saying we can’t beat this.” David said.
They agreed to reconvene in the morning to figure out just how to try and defeat what fate had laid out for them. However, Blyvy would be visited in her dreams by an apparition. “You are on the right track. Just don’t end up on the wrong album.” it said. “What the fuck are you talking about?!” Blyvy responded. “You will encounter two collaborators; they will both come across as gambles. Only one of them will equate to a payout.” it responded. “Did you ever screw with our parents like this?” Blyvy asked. “Ok...you really are a descendant of Catya. The lack of subtext comprehension means I can use plain English.” it replied. “Coming from something that used the phrase ‘subtext comprehension’. If you were any fuller of shit, you’d be living in a goddamn diaper genie.” Blyvy replied. “Goddamn, you’re good. Anyway, two people will claim they can help you. One will be lying out of their ass. The other will actually help you.” it said. The apparition disappeared before Blyvy could deliver another jab.
She awoke to find her cohorts surrounding her with accolades. “We only dreamed of normal stuff like having sex with hot and talented people. You dream of ripping someone a new asshole.” Madler said. “Isn’t that the same thing when you dream about David?” Victory snided. “No, bitch. That applies to when you get gangbanged by 2nd string XFL team.” he replied. “Cut it out. You two act like you’re feuding on The View. Anyway, what’d this fuck face in your dream say?” David asked.
“It said that we’d meet two people claiming they can help us out. One of them will be lying out of their ass and the other could help.” she replied.
“Well put some clothes on. We venture on from this place. Take what you can now because we are going to burn this motherfucker down.” Victory said. Blyvy replied, “Burning this place down will only make things more difficult. We’re already against our lineage. Don’t make this shit more complicated.” “She does have a point.” David began. “We just need to seek out these people. The faster the better.” “To hell with you all!” Victory shouted. As she was about to dash out, Madler confronted her.
“Alright you little bitch. I’ve had enough of you. We did not begin getting the pieces to this fucked up jigsaw puzzle, just to see one of us bail out.” he said. “Get the fuck out of my way! I don’t want to put up with this anymore!” she screamed. “Then we fight to the death. No one bails out until you die.” Madler responded.
The two prepped for their bout. David and Blyvy took refuge outside with their weapons and with what they ended up taking. “Who do you think is going to die?” Blyvy queried. “Whoever it is, they get to find out how bad our parents are in the afterlife.” David replied. They could only imagine the amount of destruction that was to take place. Madler and Victory then engaged in a two hour bout. At the 28 minute mark, Madler had lacerated Victory’s thigh. At the 47 minute mark, Victory clubbed Madler with her Desert Eagle. At the 1 hour and 15 mark, Madler delivered a swift kick to Victory’s solar plexus. At the 1 hour and 45 minute mark, Victory shot Madler in the left shoulder. At the 2 hour mark, Madler delivered the killing blow by giving Victory a “Russian Tampon”.
He emerged from the bookstore with his bloodied Halberd only saying, “Give that whore a one way ticket to hell.” The three of them then doused the bookstore in gasoline, hopped in the dune buggy and watched the bookstore made infamous by their parents, burn into the ground. “She won’t be missed. The bitch wanted an easy way out and that’s exactly what she got.” Madler uttered.
They drove for hours until they happened across a man meditating in the desert. “Pull close to him until we can rob his ass.” Blyvy said. Just when they thought they would pull an easy score, the man shouted “Don’t steal my shit until I tell you my name!” “Fuck; we’re dealing with a nutcase.” Madler said. The man spoke again, “What gives with you wanting to rob me?” “We only need whatever resources we can get off you for sustenance.” Blyvy responded. “Something tells me I can help you get something without me being robbed.” the man said. “Don’t fuck with her emotionally. She had an apparition appear before her in a dream.” David advised.
“Look...I’m not merely going to give you what I have. I have a higher purpose.” the man said. Before he could continue, Madler shot him dead. “Finally, he shut his fucking mouth. Get his shit and figure out who he was.” They gathered what they deemed “not shitty” and found that he was worth more than they thought. “Hmm; maybe we should’ve let him explain himself.” David said. “However, his piousness was enough for me to lose sympathy.” The man they had slain was named Arfur Foulksaycke. The research conducted on him showed he was an expatriate of Northern Ireland. He had been an engineer, before losing his mind and becoming a Celtic cult leader in the desert. His engineering firm that had supplied his livelihood, was the same one that had constructed the Derby and Friedan theatres (both of which were destroyed by their parents.) What they were able to rob of him was surprising. Arfur was stupid enough to have his personal financial records on him along with an envelope containing $20,000.
While success was achieved, condemnation would make an appearance. Followers of Arfur had seen everything they did. One shrieked, “Avenge the Celtic desert angel of God!”
Luckily, Arfur’s followers were as inane as he was. When they made their move, Blyvy slew them all with a single motion. One follower wasn’t dead yet, but he wanted his dying breath to be useful. “Take nothing lightly; you may have slain us, but you will not be happy. Your conquest will end with at least one more of you dying.” Before his death he only said, “You will meet the first of two soon.” “Well, now that that’s over, what say we get the fuck out of here?” David said.
They drove for hours until they would come across the city not even explored by their parents...Salieri Heights. “Where the fuck are we?” Madler asked. “Hey you! The whore with the bad fashion sense! Where the fuck are we?” Blyvy asked. When the woman turned around, everyone was floored. Her black cat mask revealed everything; the woman was Victory’s mother, Dolly...one of the parents responsible for their fates. As Dolly was about to start running, Blyvy pinned her up against a wall. “Tell us where the rest are you bitch!” she shouted. Dolly replied, “I’m the only one in this city.”
Madler sensed that Dolly was lying, but was unable to discern as to what. “We’re going to take you for a ride. That way, you have no choice but to tell us where our parents are.” he said. “Where’s my daughter?” Dolly asked. “She’s dead...by way of a ‘Russian Tampon’. Sweet girl, but had it coming once she wanted out.” Madler responded. Dolly responded with another bombshell.
“If I were really her mother, I’d gut the shit out of you.” she said.
“What the fuck are you talking about?” Blyvy asked.
“It’s a bit of a story.” Dolly began. “It was when I had first joined up with the rest of your parents. I caught Carlyle fucking some random dude. She knew I was in the shadows watching all two minutes of conceiving Victory happen.”
“Yikes; two minutes?” David snided. “Carlyle wasn’t known for her taste in men. She wanted your father, McRay.” “My dad is McRay?” David asked. “Yes on that, and the fact that he is gayer than a WeHo production of Les Miserables. Also, before you ask, you’re a test tube baby.” Dolly responded. “Anyway, Carlyle and I made a deal to conceal her pregnancy. I signed a deal that when Carlyle died, I assume responsibility of the child when they reach 18.”
Dolly elaborated further, but Madler set his sights on the city they were in. “That bitch is lying her ass off.” he thought. “I’m going to find the rest of them while ‘Scheherazade’ gets her storytelling on.” He set out along the streets scouring information about their parents. Almost everyone he met either retreated out of fear or refused to help him. He then noted a passerby with a peculiar style set. “That sloppy looking street urchin will probably know something.” Madler thought. As he approached him, the street urchin looked at him and began to retreat. “Oh no you don’t bitch.” Madler said.
Madler was in for a chase. The street urchin used his familiarity to an advantage. However, Madler is known for his adaptability. The street urchin managed three exact curveballs against Madler. “This little fucker is better than I hoped.” he thought. When the street urchin tried for a fourth curveball, he discovered that his luck had run out.
A brick wall much taller than him had him cornered. “Unless you summit this bitch, your ass is mine now.” Madler said. “Damn. I thought I would’ve lost you already.” the street urchin said. “Save that shit for someone who cares.” Madler began. “Now who are you and do you know anything about these people?” He studied the picture and said, “They saved my ass once. The Derby theatre.” “How the fuck do you know about The Derby theatre?!” Madler asked.
“My name’s Kirk and I helped with The Derby and The Friedan incidents.” he said.
Meanwhile, Blyvy and David were losing patience with Dolly.
“Very nice story. Now where the fuck is our parents?” Blyvy demanded. “I haven’t seen them since I settled here when the group was disbanded.” Dolly replied. “We might’ve listened to you ramble on about your problems, but we’re not fucking stupid.” David added snidely. “I really don’t know where they could be you jackoff!” Dolly shouted. “Are you this pissed off when your boyfriend’s around?” David was shocked that Dolly knew that much about him. “How do you know...” She interrupted him saying, “I know McRay’s spawn when I see them.”
“Get to the part where you became a traveling Comedy Central roast.” Blyvy said. “Right...” Dolly began. “After our very final score at The Friedan, we ran the bookstore and toured the city as a traveling ‘round table’. Our motto was ‘round and round we go; calling all of you a prick or a ho’.” “Catchy like an STD.” David snided. Dolly continued, “Eventually, we grew bored of insulting the town on a daily basis. So we up and the left the bookstore hoping it would be looted and/or destroyed by enemies of ours with bad timing.” “Well, having it destroyed by your children must warm your heart.” Blyvy added. “It does indeed, you little bitch.” Dolly replied. “You’re just like Catya.”
She was pinned against the wall by Blyvy. “Catya’s my mother?!” she roared. “How else do you think a creepy little fucker like you ends up with the name ‘Blyvy’?” Dolly replied. “Tell us how we can beat what you’ve screwed us with!” she shouted.
“This motherfucker should know how.” Madler said.
“Kirk?” Dolly said.
“Holy hell, you’re alive.” he replied.
It turns out that they were lovers when she was still with the traveling round table. “How cute; they’re reunited lovers basking in their...oh fuck this sappy shit. Where the hell are our parents you star crossed, brain dead shells of organic matter?!” Blyvy shouted.
“I keep telling you bastards I don’t know!” Dolly said. “Where is the last place they mentioned heading to, before you settled here?” David asked. “I wanted nothing to do with them after so many years of emotional turmoil.” She replied. Madler grabbed Kirk and put the Desert Eagle to his head. “I didn’t want to use this cheap ass tactic, but you won’t make this easy.” he said. Her eyes burned with fury. “You are not using my gun to kill him, you piece of shit!”
She charged and tackled Madler for the gun. Kirk was dumb enough to try and flee, but Blyvy put him in his place. “Watch them fight and don’t do anything stupid like try and take your...” before she could finish, Madler and Dolly were engaged in loud, bare fisted combat. He fended off Dolly, but accidently fired at her. “Look out!” would be Kirk’s last words. He flew out and was hit by the bullet. “Kirk!” Dolly screamed. “You stupid motherfucker! You could’ve pulled me to the floor and had the same effect to where I didn’t get hit!” She looked at Madler with the flames of hell in her eyes. “Now it’s your turn to die you motherfucker.” As she charged again, David clubbed her on the head with a bar stool. “Now we can find out what the bitch has been hiding from us.”
They headed back to their dune buggy with Dolly in a bag and her belongings on their person. Surprisingly, she hadn’t been lying. A journal lifted from her indicated her connections from McRay, Charlie and Catya had really been frayed. However, a location had been tossed around repeatedly. Blyvy opened the bag and said to Dolly, “How much further until Pansona Chingada?” “Oh fuck.” she replied. “What? You shocked that your dumb bitch strategy wasn’t going to work?” Blyvy asked. David and Madler ushered her over to a road block.
Angry bikers and fans of Cassadee Pope insisted they get proper dues. “No one gets  through us until they tell us what performance of Cassadee they love the most.” “Oh great; representatives of another Pope I can’t fucking stand.” Madler said.
They wasted little time engaging the bikers in combat. The bout lasted three hours. The bikers’ endurance was surprising to them; even more surprising was Dolly siding with them to vanquish the bikers. “Now do you believe I’m not against you?” she asked. At the 37 minute mark, Dolly ripped out the throats of two bikers. At the 1 hour and 48 minute mark, Madler and Blyvy performed the “Chisinau Crossbow” on a biker dumb enough to throw a punch at them.
Madler began by dislocating the biker’s knees with a sledgehammer. Then he smashed his ankles to a pulp to assure he wouldn’t try to flee. Blyvy’s footsteps made the biker squirm as she inched closer to finish the job. She caked him in delousing powder as she gingerly inched her mother’s weapon to his throat. The biker was foolish enough to try and resist the powder’s effect. However, when it kicked in, a violent shake of his head led to his throat being slit and gushing blood like a vampiric oasis.
At the 2 hour and 44 minute mark, David had been letting all but one of the bikers chase him. Just when the bikers thought they had him, David surprised the bikers by unleashing his fatal surprise. As he found a foxhole to hide in, the bikers plopped to their deaths by falling off a cliff. A unison of screaming Neanderthals was all that was heard as their bodies hit the ground; splattering their inferior genetic material on the desert sands.
At the 3 hour mark, the last biker would be vanquished. David, Madler, Blyvy and Dolly brought his end via a move known as “The Japanese Club Soda”. Each of them took the kanabo and delivered five swings to his body. The biker screamed, “I might be a fan of Cassadee Pope, but I don’t deserve to die like this!” “Oh yes you do.” Blyvy responded. Dolly added sinisterly, “If it makes you better, we’d kill fans of Nicholas David like this too. Now shut up and let us finish you off. You mustn’t be late for your trip to hell.” The club soda sped up the death of the biker as his agonizing pain signified his lifelessness.
Eventually, they left the scene of their crime. “Alright you little bitch.” Blyvy began. “Where the fuck is Pansona Chingada?” Dolly replied, “From where we are now about another 15 or so miles.” They drove the allotted number and soon saw the sign that welcomed them to Pansona Chingada. Madler held the Desert Eagle to Dolly’s head and said, “Get to explaining what this place meant to you in your journal.” She complied saying, “This is the last place Charlie mentioned before he and McRay broke off their connections with me in Salieri Heights.”
So they asked the locals of Pansona Chingada if they knew of McRay or Charlie’s whereabouts. One by one, all the locals did was merely recount the folklore surrounding them. Then, a passerby who had been listening had approached them. “I can help you find them.” he said. “Who are you?” David began. “If you end up fucking us over, we do want to know your name before we kill you.” He replied, “My name is Zasalamel Sardo and I remember details the residents do not.” “Like what?” Blyvy queried.
Zasalamel elaborated, recanting on a man with gunmetal gray and Arabica roast brown eyes coming through town to buy some chamomile tea for his lover. “You described one of them, so to some degree they’re not far from here.” Madler said. “They live in one of the outskirt towns to the North.” he added. “So straight out of town, head for some chintzy outskirt town?” David asked. “There are only three outskirt towns to the North. You will be able to find them.” he replied. They thanked him for his help and headed onward. Then, Blyvy grew skeptical. “Remember that fuck face from the desert saying we’d meet one of two people?” she said.
“Pull the dune buggy over.” David said to Madler. He added, “I’m going to find out if he really is the one telling the truth.” He went in to a local inn and asked for the manager. “Excuse me, sir?” he asked. “Yes, can I help you?” the manager replied. “We got directions and we need to verify them.” David said. “Ok then. Do these involve our outskirt towns?” he asked.
“Yes they do.” David began. “How many outskirt towns are to the North?” The manager showed a live stream service of updated information on the layout of Pansona Chingada. “As of today, there are zero settlements to the North. All results are verified by international bureaus of surveying and landscape.” He gave David the printout of the schematics. “Thank you sir.” he said.
He returned to the dune buggy and told them what the manager told him. “All of these are verified across the board.” Blyvy assured. “So Zasalamel must be sheltering them.” Madler said.
“No he isn’t...It was me who’d be sheltering them.” Dolly said
“You little bitch!” Blyvy said.
“You forgot to take the Bluetooth emergency device from me back in Salieri Heights.” she began. “I used its special brainwave technology to warn the others you were on to them. I told them to use Zasalamel to create a diversion. They are in Pansona Chingada.” David was furious. He grabbed Dolly and beat her against the dune buggy.
“You. treacherous. goddamn. bitch!” he said as he kicked and punched her. “What did you expect me to do?” She asked. “I’m not going to sell them out just so they can die by their children’s hands.” “So where do you really fit in all this?” Madler asked. “I was watching their property in Salieri Heights; where you found me and Kirk.” she said. “Well now you’re going to lead us to where they are in Pansona Chingada.” David said.
They made it back, Dolly’s head now affixed to a guillotine like position. “You fuck up now, we will make your last breath very short.” Blyvy began. “Every misstep you take and we punch the hell out of you.” Dolly had no missteps and complied every step of the way. She showed them to a house on the border of Pansona Chingada and the Western outskirts. “Knock on the door and see if McRay, Charlie or Catya answer; now!” Blyvy barked.
Dolly tepidly knocked on the door. The nefarious ring blade bitch, Catya answered the door. “Who the fuck did you manage to piss off in Salieri Heights?” “Three people that want to see you, McRay and Charlie.” she replied. Before Catya could put two and two together, David, Blyvy and Madler stormed in, weapons in tow. “You’re going to give us everything we need to know, or the bitch dies!” David said.
McRay and Charlie rushed out to join the fray. “Lay a finger on her and we’ll cut your journey short.” Catya said. “Let’s see you try you goddamn bitch!” Blyvy replied. She charged for Catya and surprised her with her own ferocity. Eventually, Catya was able to kick Blyvy off of her. “Only my daughter could be ruthless enough to have me wait 25 minutes for me to kick her off.” she replied. “Shut the fuck up already and give us what we deserve!” Madler yelled. Charlie saw this as warrant to charge him. The two fought for as long as Catya and Blyvy had. They managed a solid punch to each other. “Well, that was nice and pleasant. Apart from me bleeding from a punch and all.” David eyed McRay and said, “You and me now you son of bitch.” They fought for an entire hour. Kicks, punches and even spitting were just in the first ten minutes of their bout. Eventually, after breaking everything but the couch on each other, they decided they weren’t going to die a meager town like Pansona Chingada.
They all sat down in the lightly destructed living area. “Well obviously, you’re here about the note back at Mama Joseph’s.” Charlie began. “From what Dolly sent us from her Bluetooth, you burned down the place after learning of our remedy for your fates.” McRay added, “That and the fact that you killed Victory within the first few minutes of her meltdown.” Catya chimed in, “What a fucked up, but kind of well deserved death. She is of Carlyle, so death by ‘Russian Tampon’ only makes sense.”
“Get to the part of how we can reverse this shit already!” they said in unison.
“All you have to do is one up us by killing no talent schmucks at the Grammy Awards.” Charlie said. “It shouldn’t be that hard to nose out who’s talentless.” McRay added. “Let me explain this slowly, so it can process in your fucking head faster.” Madler began. “We. do. not. want. to.” Catya stood up and began explaining that a regret they had was never resolved.
“Our final score at the VMAs...it was never intended to be with those talentless sacks of shit. The Grammys had been cancelled that year because they knew we were close to them.” she said. “So you killed off talentless fuck faces at the VMAs. You were heralded for that, right?” Blyvy asked. “All we did was manage to escape. I suppose that could qualify under some type of accolades.” Catya replied. She continued, “Just kill off talentless fuck-wads at the Grammys for us and nothing bad will happen anymore.”
David re-read the note and realized that’s all they wanted. Then he had an idea. “Well, what if you all get back into this and help us rid of this shit?” Catya squirmed at the thought. “Oh fuck, he found a loophole.” “Yeah...” Blyvy began. “...if we can get you to kill them with us we can both resolve our issues.” McRay and Charlie concurred at the notion to re-establish themselves in the life. “This is probably ample time for us all.” Charlie said. “I agree; this is still the most physically prime we’ll be.” McRay added. Dolly concurred even though she had been awfully quiet.
Catya, on the other hand, was dead set against the idea. “I am not getting back in that life. You little bastards just have to do this one thing.” she said. Madler decided to wage psychological warfare on her. “Don’t tell us you’ve softened up.” She looked at him, confused at his assertion, yet aware of his tactics. “How do you form such a conclusion?” He gazed back at her saying, “You want other people to do you work for you so you don’t feel bad anymore.” “Oh really, now?” She began. “So simply because I want my name clean, I’m suddenly less ‘hardcore’? I’m doing what I am to prevent grave robbing/defacing and/or necrophilia.”
He was floored by her absurdist response. “Bitch, even alive, no man would fuck you with his eyes open.” She bit back in a way he didn’t expect. “How funny; you look like you get fucked with the lights off. J’accuse young man; j’accuse.” Thrown off, but not defeated, he responded with this. “Unlike your game, I’m on top.” Catya and even David were floored. “You must really hate me that much to throw your boyfriend in that to spite me.” She began. “Ok, I’ll get back in the game just for that.” Dolly spoke for the second time that night. “So we meet in the morning to discuss, right?”
They agreed to reconvene in the morning to set out from Pansona Chingada. However, Madler was racked with guilt over what was said. He woke David up and began apologizing. “I shouldn’t have put you through that. I was a dick and I’m sorry.” David understood him and what he had to do. “It is a nice treat to hear you admit to being such a dick. However, Catya was being an unreasonable bitch. Women’s irrationality is the number one reason men can act like dicks.” “I love your pseudo sexist ass.” Madler said. “I’m not sexist against women. Just because I don’t fuck them doesn’t mean I really hate them. If anything that makes me their ideal man because I don’t fuck them.” David replied.
The morning came as had David and Madler after their makeup romp. “What smells like ketchup and honey?” Catya asked. “That my dear is called, ‘David and Madler sitting on a spring; H-A-V-I-N-G fucked.’ It’s an acquired scent.” Blyvy replied.
They discussed plans as to how to prepare for the Grammy Award Bombardment. “All we need are a few sessions of killing off random fuck faces.” McRay began. “Any ideas how we get started?” Blyvy responded with, “There’s this terrible rapper by the name of Iggy Azalea. We can start by tracking her fans down and then subsequently giving ironic meaning to her song ‘Murda Bizness’.” Madler chimed in, “I want to kill the brain cells of yours that remember all of that.” “Then it’s settled. We have a plan.” Charlie said. They suited up and left for their quest.
McRay saw the dune buggy and lit up. “Our dune buggy! We sold that years ago! Where did you find it? And why did you find it?” “Madler carjacked it for us. Isn’t he resourceful?” David gushed. “So I see your man means the world to you too?” Charlie queried. “Gee, Holmes. You solve that one by yourself?” He retorted. “Oh for God’s sake cut the lovey-dovey shit and let’s fuck people up with weapons.” Catya commanded.
Using the LMFAO Horde phone (still surprisingly intact), they were able to learn of an event in which Iggy Azalea fans were gathering. It was for a surprise concert held by Iggy herself. “Remember; she’s a talentless slut who should be beaten to death for her crimes against the music industry.” McRay briefed. “Be more specific you troglodyte.” Blyvy said. “She’s a talentless slut in the Hip Hop and/or Rap arena who should be beaten to death.” McRay added. “Even more specific than that.” David added. “This whore who has a song called ‘Murda Bizness’.” McRay added again. “Oh that bitch.” Catya said. “Here’s our destination; cut a bitch land!” Madler evilly grinned.
They assessed the grounds before setting foot near the concert. Dolly noted, “Nothing to worry about terrain wise. It’s plain like Colbie Calliat.” “Don’t insult the word plain like that.” David retorted. “Good point. Hold on before you go gung ho.” she began. “There’s an update. ‘Winner of The Voice Season 3, Cassadee Pope, will make a surprise appearance as the opening act for Iggy Azalea.’ I’m running cross references right now.” After confirming the story’s credibility, they set course for the concert grounds, ready to kill those dumb enough to stop them.
As they approached, fans noted they were coming. Expectedly, the fans were stupid enough to fight back for talentless artists. Blyvy and Madler were able to rip off fans’ limbs like paper towels. The screams though vociferous were quite subtle (even when they were being
beaten with their own limbs). “Snap; crackle; pop!” they would say evilly. With every chant came the separation of limb from muscle tissue; the grounds becoming sanguine with inferior genetic makeup.
McRay and Charlie took things further, using more than just bare hands. McRay pistol-whipped countless people to their graves and then taking tabs of rock salt to ramp up the severe pain inflicted. Charlie sliced through the crowds with his Halberd like tenderized meat. He even managed to scrounge up enough blood to splatter on people squeamish enough to vomit their innards out to death.
David managed to etch his sick reputation in along with Dolly. He used his Sai to pierce though people’s throats. Dolly would then proceed to capture the blood in her mouth. As a disgusted crowd looked on, she held a Zippo lighter and spat the blood into it creating a sanguine flamethrower. When not using platelets, Dolly cracked necks and pistol whipped crowd members the diaphragm. David kept up his Sai technique using what’s known as the “Yakuza Toothpick”; a move that involved him piercing his Sai into someone until they would bleed from their mouth. When he grew sick of their teeth appearing bloodied, he knocked their teeth inward to where they would fall down their throats.
Yet as sick as they were, none would even contemplate what Catya did. She lacerated people, collected their intestines and force-fed their contents until they gave up and bled to death. That was a luxury to those slain by Catya. She then proceeded to resurrect her legendary “Croatian Buzzsaw”. She rushed to a ground worthy enough and jimmy rigged a work station.
Once settled, she proceeded to saw people in half; from the genitals upward. The most bombastic screams could be heard from nations halfway around the world. When she grew bored of that, she proceeded to start “jamming” her saw with the fans. The screams only registered as music to Catya. “Oh shut up.” she would say. “You all sound like Bjork singing a lullaby.” As she grew bored of that, she noticed that Iggy and Cassadee were being ushered out. “Charlie and/or Madler. Get those bitches before they escape!”
They created a diversion by killing the people escorting them out. For the crew and spawn it had worked out perfectly. Iggy and Cassadee were dragged in the chaos by the disorientation of the fans. Shoes and dysfunction led to their ends. Feet had trampled them; crushing their limbs first and then slowly depleting their air flow to nothingness. The bloodied remains of them only added a sick touch.
Hours later, the crew and spawn had finished their first collaborative effort. What was once grounds for a concert now resembled the horrors of war on every vicious battlefield throughout history.
“Did we just do this again?” McRay asked.
“Indeed we did.” Charlie replied.
“I still have all of that shit in me. Who’d’ve thunk, right?” Catya chimed.

They looked at their spawn who were traumatized and reveling in their moment. “To think most of us made them.” Dolly noted. “We need to get the fuck out of here.” McRay said. They all hopped in the dune buggy and began the journey back to Pansona Chingada.

trEND Act II Part II

All of the broheims around Mikey had attempted to deflect the Uzi, but her literal cat like reflexes resulted in their demise. “You still have a chance to leave me be. I wouldn’t be stupid and attempt to negotiate with me further.” She said. Mikey replied, “I can’t walk away now.”
Dolly squeezed the trigger releasing the rest of the Uzi’s ammunition. When the Uzi had run out of bullets, she noticed that Mikey was still standing. “If there’s a bulletproof vest underneath, I’ll just finish you off with my bare hands.” He revealed that his death was prevented by that very cocoon of Kevlar, now past usable condition. She reached for Carlyle’s oilpaper umbrella weapon, but was stopped by McRay. “We’ll finish him off for you. Besides, me and Catya hate Jersey Shore fans with a fervent passion.” He, Charlie, Luke, Sydell and Catya each looked at each other knowing what to do with Mikey.
Sydell and Luke teamed up to drain Mikey’s strength slowly but with brutality. The strikes from Sydell’s kanabo had struck his abdomen enough to have blood being coughed up from his mouth. Luke’s fists had added to that along with bruising along to the ribcage. “Oh don’t think you’re dying yet.” Sydell said. Sydell said. Before he could regain his stance, Mikey was subdued by McRay and Charlie. Catya made it known that Mikey’s death would be any synonym of cruel and macabre. “Let’s just tear this goddamn vest off of you. There! Now you’re fit for the ‘Mojave Sarcophagus’.”
“What the fuck is that?” he asked. Her answer started with a punch to his throat. She then disemboweled him, before directing McRay and Charlie to come and destroy him further. McRay grabbed separate ends of his intestine, before pinning each end with rusted pipes. Charlie then jettisoned him into the gaping hole. Due to the pipes being properly grounded in Mikey’s intestines, he only hung inches from the ground below. Like those who had been inane like he was, Mikey climbed up trying to give his death some dignity. He was close to bucking that trend of failure, until Dolly pulled her gun to his head.
“Just die, you sack of DNA. I ran away with good reason, and there’s nothing you can do or say to sway me emotionally.” As he attempted to speak, Dolly shot him between his eyes and Mikey descended to his death. The fall was great enough to break his intestine ends from the pipes. “Serves you right.” She said under her breath. The crew made it back to their base, but as opposed to their routine headed to “the room” to converse. “I didn’t think I’d want to bring this up, but we all know there’s no other option for us.” McRay said. “We should let Dolly and Sydell in on this.” Charlie said. McRay went on to explain what they feared to bring up again. “Before her death, Mama Joseph told us to increase our verbal onslaught. She would always say, ‘Physical might seem important; yet it’s verbal that always does the job with the least amount of blood on you’...”
“Parlez-vous English, you pretentious sod?” Dolly interjected. “...she added, ‘Think of it like this...Sex is good, but you tire of it eventually. Dirty talk is what makes it go on for so much longer.’ One of the things she left us was a mega anthology of insult collections. If we tired of this, we were instructed to abandon the squadron code and become a league of snark.” Dolly chimed, “So instead of ‘mercenaries’, she wanted us to become a Friars club?” “Pretty much; as long as we stop the attacks one day, she even said we could be rejects for a singing competition.” McRay said. “Well, then we would need an actual final score. Something really, really momentous to cap off the life.” Catya said. They skimmed through the phone, hoping that something could rev their engines one last time. Longer than usual, the crew kept skimming through the streaming “news”.
“These are all good in theory, but nothing seems to have that ‘oomph’ factor. That and nothing seems to be worthy of being the final score.” Charlie noted. Then a thought came to McRay. “Isn’t this awards season?” he asked. “Yeah it is...our final score should be vanquishing hordes, whores and industry people at an awards show!” Catya began. “Wait, which one?” “Like you actually have to ask.” Sydell said.
The LMFAO horde phone however, informed them that their first choice for the final score had been cancelled for the year. “So...the organizers of the Grammys decide to back out of the limelight.” Luke said. Just then, a very fulfilling supplement made itself noticed. “Oh hello...” Luke began. “Looks like the VMA’s will still be in effect. This’ll more than satisfy our finite quest for carnage.” The sextet set out to finish one last job.
Along the way, McRay noticed a more disheveled looking Liam on the side of the road. “What happened? Your coalition didn’t abandon you did they?” Liam replied, “Chill out dude. My comrades personally sent me to help you out on their behalf.” “Is it because they somehow deified us?” Luke asked. Liam again replied, “In a sense, but mainly because they think it’s about time you fight for another group of people apart from satiating a bloodlust against things surrounded by hype.” Catya grabbed Liam by his collar and threw him in the dune buggy. “Click it or ticket smartass!” she said.
Countless hours later, the now septet arrived at the grounds in which the VMA’s were being held. Knowing that needless security was provided at event types like this, they each turned to their disguise. “This better be damn good, McRay. I shouldn’t even know how zebra print looks on my body!” Catya shouted. “Chill out you goddamn maniac!” he replied.
“We just have to get through this until most of these acts come through; then we strike.” “Well these fuckers better get here soon. Luke and Charlie seem to be losing it fast.” She replied. It turned out that their first target was the pre-awards opening act. The correspondent announced, “Here to perform their new single ‘Clap that Bootyhole (Like a Seal)’...L-M-F-A-O!” Another field reporter made the septet aware of another target. “Not so fast, broski. Here to join them with her new single ‘Onomato (Please Ya)’...Nicki Minaj!” Liam nudged Dolly and whispered, “We should be getting the go-ahead soon.” Dolly reluctantly whispered back, “There’s about to be another target on stage.”
Sadly, a third reporter announced that a third target was joining the budding cacophony. “Hold on there, you crazy kids you. Joining them with his new single ‘Have I Mentioned Miami Yet?’...Pitbull!” Sydell, Catya, Luke, Charlie, Liam and Dolly each gave a commanding gaze to McRay. He knew that the tension and anticipation was reaching a feverish apex. “Before you devolve into beasts...” he began. “...just remember that crotch shots will not be encouraged this time. Alright; go in.” The bedlam that ensued made every prior massacre look like a coloring book. Every effort to suppress the septet ended in maimed failure. Security and devotee alike were inane enough to try and put up a fight.
The ambiguously douche duo stepped towards Catya. The afro sporting douche said, “Can’t you simmer, quit being a dimmer, be my ho and clap that bootyhole...like a seal?” Catya retorted, “Roses are red; violets ain’t blue. Do us all a favor and shut the fuck up you tool!” She then threw her blade in the air, then grabbed it and proceeded to slice the afro sporting douche in half. “Unless you want a taste of the ‘Sicilian Yo-Yo’, I suggest you die now.” She said to the other half of the ambiguously douche duo. He tried to flee but by his third step, Catya had decapitated him.
Dolly and Liam were busy fighting Pitbull. Every time he charged, Dolly clocked him in the jaw. “You single-handedly make geography weep when you mention these places in your songs!” Liam said. Dolly added, “Your cries will be heard from Brazil, Morocco, London, Ibiza, L.A., New York, Vegas...Africa and all the other places you sullied, you bastard!” Pitbull attempted to roundhouse Liam, but when his leg neared him Dolly shot him in the knee. She then whispered to him, “You deserve this so much.” Dolly then cracked his neck ensuring his death. To add her signature of insult to her kill counts, she picked up his corpse and threw him into oncoming traffic. “Nothing like a ‘Carthaginian Ragdoll’ to finish off a kill.” She said.
McRay, Charlie, Luke and Sydell were left to deal with the biggest source of their frustration, Nicki Minaj.
Despite her being their most deplorable foe, they knew attacking without strategy would be less than ideal. The enemy began to speak; her ramblings may have been audible yet the words sounded like the sirens of Odysseus’s voyage once revealed. “Tom tom like in Lebanon; Hodda den in Pakistan; waba dee waba...wab wobble wobble. Money a sharon o.t. wine it, wine it! Raaaaaaah! I’m a motherfucking monster!” Luke wondered, “How does that qualify as legitimate talent?” The beast spoke again, “Pink wig, thick ass; give ‘em whiplash...no really really I don’t give a F-U-C-K.” McRay knew better than to let something like this from continuing. He struck her jaw, but not even the blood dripping from her mouth could silence her guttural cries. “Just killed another career, it’s a mile day. Besides ‘Ye they can’t stand besides me...I think me, you and ‘Am’ should ménage right tray.”
Charlie and Luke each added a roundhouse kick to her stomach and mid-back respectively. Even that couldn’t suppress her from another spewing of inane ramblings. Sydell decided to toy with this “Barbie”. “Where do you think you’ll end up when you finally die?” She queried. The beast let out her most bone grating cry. “On the island of Waikikiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii.” Sydell replied with a “Ukrainian Face-lift”. Her kanabo had made contact with Nicki’s mandible; the remnants of her facial features left the grounds redder than the carpet.
When Nicki collapsed signifying her lifelessness, the crew took it on themselves to inspect the grounds. “Check every square foot of this Petri dish of bastardized humanity.” McRay began. “No one can be spared, or else the final score won’t be finite.” Two and a half hours later, collective assessments had become concrete findings. “We checked everywhere in these grounds.” Catya began. “Everyone that showed up will now have to be mentioned in the past tense.” McRay queried, “Any casualties we didn’t brag about yet? Kings of Leon being ‘dethroned’ by decapitation? Lady Antebellum with at least deteriorated cerebellum?”
Charlie replied, “That and Arcade Fire is up in flames. That motherfucker Bon Iver went au revoir...” Luke added, “Justin Bieber is pretty much ‘sleeping’ like a ‘baby’. Nicole Scherzinger pretty much ran out of ‘breath’ to hold...” Sydell added further, “The last rose Wiz Khalifa will have on him won’t be Amber anymore and J. Cole won’t work out shit anymore.”
She then noticed Dolly wasn’t in the immediate vicinity of the crew. “Dolly?” she said. “Please give some type of indicator of you being alive please.” Catya had sighted and locked eyes with Dolly, whose eyes were flowing with despair. “Liam lost big fight with ‘Noel’. He saved me from rabid ‘beliebers’...and I hate him for doing so.” Sydell remarked, “Nobody like him was knowledgeable that dying a hero’s death is utter ineptitude.”
“I know I shouldn’t be emo over it!” Dolly began. “If anything, I should be pissed off...but I can’t help but feel something they call...what’s that ‘A’ word that causes fear in man?” “Alimony?” Charlie said. “A...set of twins; the nine months to birth variety?” Luke said. “What about Arizona?” Sydell said. “No I think its AIDS.” McRay said. “It does strike fear in man, but so does your pattern of being a goddamn philistine.” Catya replied. “Now I remember.” Dolly began. “I can’t help but feel affection for him.” McRay, Charlie and Luke shivered in horror. “Try avoiding that word from here on out. My rectum puckered like sour candy shoved up inside it.” Charlie said.
“In all seriousness though, affection isn’t what you feel.” Catya said. Dolly looked her in the eyes and shouted, “I’m a 15 year old runaway, you bitch. Let me think this is affection ok?!” “It’s more so guilt than affection. If you two fucked then it could possibly be affection.” Catya replied. “Well we should at least place him next to Carlyle.” Dolly said. Sydell had to tell the crew the status of the coroner’s office as the LMFAO horde phone said. She felt like a bitch, but knew it needed to be done because the news was gaining traction. “The coroner’s office is being raided.” “What the fuck for?” Luke asked. According to the horde phone, a scandal over a post on FaceBook was to blame.
“I knew FaceBook would be the death of that place; fuck ‘em all even if their death is slow.” She said. “I just got an idea...all we need is a vat of fat and gasoline.” Catya said. “Which restaurant do we get the fat from?” Charlie asked. “I know this is the U.S., but still...” After acquiescing a vat of fat from Porky Pine’s American and BBQ Station, the crew set out to an abandoned Radio Shack at Sydell’s whim. “I know this place is abandoned, but shit!” McRay began. “My sense of consumerism just went to virtually nothing.” “If you’re done making ‘brilliant remarks’, I’ll explain just why I dragged us here.” Sydell said.
“This Radio Shack in particular, was always the target of irate customers. Refunds were never given; clerks never feigned interest; and the selection? Two words...bitch...please.” “So we’re drenching Liam in lard, pouring gas over that and setting a Radio Shack on fire for ‘justified’ reasoning?” Dolly rhetorically asked. “Doesn’t that violate at least one human right?” “Not if it’s a Radio Shack. It was never trendy, but damn it sucks.” Sydell replied. “Yeah.” McRay began. “Besides, don’t you know the Hazelnut Creamer Decree?” “What in the name of Black Jesus are you babbling about?” she asked. “It’s where an element of something not too illegal can be covered up sweetly.” “You watched that episode of The Simpsons again haven’t you?” Dolly replied.
“Yeah, but in this case burning down a Radio Shack can be forgiven by the law of nature.” He replied. “Any who, let’s get the hell out of here. Peace Liam...you’ll be in your room away from your parents forever.” Luke said. Catya, Charlie and McRay smacked him in the head and said, “Now we have nothing to say you asshole!”
Dolly paid her respects to Liam one last time before Sydell urged the crew to follow a peculiar set of instructions. “Leave now while I finish everything here.”
The crew was in the dune buggy as instructed by her. “I fear what she means by this...” Dolly began. “It sounds like she...” Before she could finish, her intuition proved valid. When the crew turned to see the Radio Shack engulfed in flames, they knew what Sydell had done to herself.
The crew was reduced to only five, but oddly an insensitive consensus was reached. “So the selfish bitch wanted death that badly. Serves her right for being that needlessly maudlin.” Catya said angrily. Hours later, the quintet returned to their still unscathed base. McRay took Charlie and Luke to his bed for one last session of “two in and on one”. “I know I’ll have to pick one of you to be my man. Playing pimp was fun, but that thing beating in my chest took on its metaphorical form...” he began. Charlie and Luke cut off his speech and said in unison, “Just give it to us like we’re charity.”
Their romp was strong enough to leave a slight indention in the sound barrier. The scent of enticed men filled the air and would go on to stain the covers. “I love the fact that you can compensate your insecurities through sex...If you were only better at talking through your problems with that warm mouth of yours; you’d only be ten notches below perfect.” Charlie said. “Oh shut up and rest on me.” McRay replied. “He has a point you know...” Luke added. “I felt each of yours...oh you’re concurring with him...my mistake. Seriously, both of you zip it and just lay with me.”
Time had allowed seven months and three weeks to elapse to coincide with changes made in the crew’s condition. At the two month and three week mark, the quintet had established enough gravitas to cast away their weapons to the storage unit for much needed rest. At the five and one half month mark, McRay’s decision had been made for him. Luke had removed himself from the group of his own volition. At first, McRay had nearly succumbed to displaying a variation of devastation. The scent of Charlie as he offered solace to him changed that.
His essence of natural aroma and Febreze Sky and Linen spray, felt like every other time of embrace. “Goddamn...this vice you have on me feels like cotton picked from the Egyptian Delta. Point is, let’s add the bed, subtract our clothes, divide the cheeks and thank God we can’t multiply.” He said.
“Chill out, Sugarcane. We’ll fuck in roughly ten seconds. Patience turns me on too.” Charlie replied. From the seven month and three week mark onward, the crew lashed out at the public using vernacular instead of brawn. Trend-whores never stood a chance against them. For anyone ignorant enough to mar the grounds with their existence, the experience afterwards branded their ass with shame. However, there were those in the public that shared the sentiments of the crew.
Any of those envisioned as a select few, were led inside the bookstore by Dolly. “Look around; just find something to do to get away from the public.” McRay and Charlie would often have to act as bodyguards over Catya. Her shift against the public would often turn heinous. This time, a band of unruly hipsters were attempting to sling effronteries against her.
Even Catya knew better than to use cheap tactics in early rounds. The band’s spokesperson had a significant lapse of retention in that area. The words bitch, ho, shit-for-brains and even the C word Levi used before his death made fifteen appearances. Eventually Catya emerged victorious when mentioning that HipsterRunoff was, “...about as valuable to society as genocide and about as classy as warfare.”
The band scurried off along with the throngs of inane and ignorant people alike. “Today’s bouts went on much too long. I usually make them cry a lot quicker.” She said.
“Quit your bitching, woman.” McRay replied. Catya fired back, “Just remember that I can make your member a thing of the past.” “Nicely done crazy eyes.” Charlie said. “That’ll suffice as congratulations you goddamn smartass. Now go check on Dolly.” She retorted.
McRay and Charlie both went to the incubation room to find Dolly holding a t-shirt not originally lying around. “We shouldn’t ask whether or not it was his, should we?” Charlie asked. McRay replied, “We could but we already know the answer.” “Oh...hey you two.” Dolly meekly said. “I can explain the t-shirt...” “No need to explain shit to us.” McRay began. “Sorry to add cheesiness to this scenario, but we know that of all the things that have accrued traction, love is still something that has yet to become a dying trend. Unlike its cousin, chivalry; that shit’s been dead for at least four centuries.”
She replied, “That’s sweet of you, but goddamn...you became so cheesy I think you came Velveeta.”

###Fin###

trEND Act II Part I

Enough weeks had passed since the crew’s final score at The Derby. McRay had spent weeks reading countless books since he, and everyone else presumed their bloodlust wouldn’t creep back in. Since the events at The Derby, Sydell had become a part of the crew. The reason she relocated to them was rather fitting.
When Catya slain the other half, Sydell had resigned from her position. Although she was skillful, she felt her environment made every effort of hers for naught. That and she wasn’t allowed to renew her license because she didn’t log in “activity time” on FaceBook. The burning hatred in her eyes caught the attention of the crew. That very kanabo used for rendering the other half lifeless, became Sydell’s signature weapon. While some triumph had been achieved, the crew learned of the death of the coroner friend who had introduced Sydell to them. He had ingested two quarts of bleach when he learned legislation barring “non-networked” personnel from attaining coroner positions had been ratified.
The crew held a vigil in his memory. A white rose had its petals dipped in gold paint, before being laid on white squares of paper before being set ablaze.
Dolly and Catya had started a daily tradition. The two would venture to a wooden area and hone Dolly’s marksmanship.
In a seemingly uncharacteristic move, Catya had crafted a “Black Cat” ensemble for Dolly. It comprised of a custom of a custom motorcycle helmet with cat ears, fingerless gloves, a bomber jacket, boot cut jeans and four inch stilettos. Luke and Charlie sparred and practiced honing fluidity for hours on end. When they tired of training, they initiated many a go-about of coitus with McRay. The sex was still as raucous as it was when three was merely two. Sydell was almost concerned that the dynamic had become much too subdued.
“These are the same people I’ve come to know.” She began to think. “Yet, I can’t help but think there’s a bigger score than The Derby for them.” She tried harboring her inner thoughts, until being reminded that even thoughts could echo along the base. Catya simply asked, “Do you think we’ve become too...what’s the word...complacent?” Sydell answered, “Not complacent, but resistant against what you know drives your breathing.” Catya somewhat concurred with her, but expressed no desire to replenish her bloodlust. “I sense something to that effect as well.” She began. “Strange as it is, it has to be done at McRay’s whim.” “Why does this root to McRay?” Sydell asked.
Catya directed her to a section of the bookstore, where everyone would converse and incubate when not dealing with missions. “All of us...long before you, Dolly and Luke came along...had an undying love for Mama Joseph. None more than he.”
Catya said. “He must’ve been a reason the group came to what it is now.” Sydell chimed. Catya continued, “He met Mama when he hit rock bottom. The reason wasn’t orientation wise, but occupation based. He used to operate a ‘freestyle’ dojo.” Sydell wondered, “Learn at your own pace ‘freestyle’ or hope you get them in the gonads ‘freestyle’?” “The latter mixed in with some lucha libre.” Catya replied. “Things looked oh too perfect for him. Out of nowhere, a mandate came in for him to ‘wire’ the school. As if that wasn’t enough to emotionally neuter him, he found out that Skype had convinced a master of ‘cliché’ fu to teach the students from his stead in China.” Sydell responded with, “I don’t know how he became so riddled from his complex from that moment on.”
“Mama Joseph took care of that.” Catya replied. “She trained him physically and a little too well emotionally.” “Did she know he swings for the other team?” Sydell asked. “Oh by the time me, Charlie and Carlyle met him she introduced him as her gay son.” She said. “It’s sad Dolly and I never met her in person. Dolly must only have an idea of her when her visage appeared before your score at The Derby.” Sydell said.
“Hate to disrupt the talk, but there’s a teensy problem with teensy in air quotes.” Charlie said. They met up with him, Luke and Dolly to find that McRay had taken off for seemingly unknown reasons. “That unbelievable son of a bitch!” Catya said.
“If he couldn’t handle not having anything else trendy die off, he should’ve at least clued us in.” Sydell looked to see a blue screen light up from a bookshelf. “I’m reading whatever’s on there.” She said. Sure enough the LMFAO horde phone was lit; but this time with instructions. “Grab your weapons and meet me at the parking garage near Shooty Hoops Sports Bar.” Thirty minutes later, everyone in full on regalia met up with McRay who had been at ease despite his stunt. “Why the hell couldn’t you tell us you wanted back in?!” Catya shouted. “We are in this together! For God’s sake, we kill trends more grotesquely than parents!”
He began to explain himself as to why he set out for this. “Two things need to be established.” He started. “One, I never ceded from this. Two, every book I’ve been reading involved more ways to engage in battle.” “Fair enough, but why now? More importantly, why at Shooty Hoops?” Charlie asked. McRay directed everyone to the poster on the front of Shooty Hoops. The poster read, “Tebow Tuesdays @ Shooty Hoops! For every time Denver Broncos player Tim Tebow does his signature move, drinks are free of charge!” “That business is bleeding money like it has stigmata!” Dolly began. “Wait; whose fault is this? The cheap bastards who are exploiting this? Or is it some idiot marketing move on behalf of the business?” McRay answered, “Oh it’s both parties at fault here, Alley Cat!”
“So are we ending Shooty Hoops and cheap bastards?” Luke asked. McRay nodded up and down. “Sounds good to me. So when do we attack?” Catya asked. “Right when Tebow drops to his knee again.” He replied. “All right, move in!” Catya shouted.
The bedlam marked a return of their addiction to carnage. Forty minutes of turning the interior of a sports bar red, and they knew Mama Joseph would be pissed in some regards. Almost on cue, the visage of Mama Joseph appeared before them in the garage. “Mama...how pissed off at us are you?” McRay asked. She shockingly answered, “I can’t be pissed at any of you.” Dolly replied, “So you’re disappointed in us?” “No, no. That isn’t the case.” She began. “In a way I forgot how feverish you all were. That and with the double-edged luxuries embraced today, the incubi and succubae alike have less probability to let things die. Well, go on and be honest with yourselves.” She wished them peace and left again to be among her square footage in heaven. “Well, let’s get the fuck out of here!” Charlie said.
The crew hopped in the dune buggy under the assumption that enforcement was pursuing them. Usually, it was just an intrinsic tactic used to haul ass. This time, they were speeding away from a one man pursuer. From how the pursuer was dressed they knew he was too gung ho even for a vigilante let alone actual enforcement. “Oh goody. A potential piece of mammalian road kill.” Dolly sarcastically uttered.
“Try to swerve so that twatwaffle goes the way of decency.” McRay waited for ample timing to strike from afar. “Oh cute...he’s pulling out a gun the size of a dingleberry.” Luke said. McRay then spotted an opportunity to end the “vigilante”. He made a swerve to the right then drifted to the left. The target stood no presumable chance afterwards. A crash then loud thud on the concrete was heard. “Let’s find out who this fuck-face is.” Luke said. The crew went to the “accident” scene to unmask their assailant. Sydell measured just how much damage had been done. Shockingly, the body still had some level of activity. “He isn’t dead. Unmask him to pump information from him.” She said.
The helmet was removed to see a bloodied face with eyes out for the crew’s blood. “Don’t give us that look you son of a bitch.” Catya began. “Tell us everything! Why you chased us, what your beef is with us and your favorite position is!” He introduced himself and his identity shocked the crew. “I’m Levi...Roger’s lover!” Dolly replied, “Oh wow...you actually had sex with that thing?” “Shut your whore mouth!” he said before spitting blood at Dolly. Sydell took an offensive stance before saying, “I’d cease using that tactic if you don’t want to die horribly.” Levi wasn’t having any of it. “You killed my lover! You made him spit up blood; what’s a little taste of your own medicine against you? Answer me right now fuck-face!”
Catya grabbed him by his collar and shouted, “If you’re going to be stupid enough to spit your blood at anyone, how about aiming for the person who put your lover’s blood on the ground where it belongs?” His fury escalated to a place not many say out loud. “Fair enough. What say we tango one on one? You’d like that wouldn’t you? Bring it on you lurid cunt!” The crew was expecting rapid decapitation from her to end the conflict. Instead, she decided to take him up on his offer. “Careful what you ask for you atrocious catamite!”
The match between the two would prove to be an iteration of epic. She swung mercilessly; he would surprisingly increase the speed of his moves with every attack. One hour and fifty minutes elapsed before he landed a strike on Catya. She never went without macabre reciprocity. Her next move lacerated his thigh. Another hour had elapsed before a stalemate was had. The hatred in their eyes was said to possess more fire than every ring of hell.
“I will make this the longest bout of your fucked up existence.” He said. She retorted, “All this is for me is an extended sparring session.” The stalemate had ended fifty minutes later when after Levi went in for a strike for her skull. At the exact same time, Catya had backed up for a devastating strike with her ring blade. When the two collided, each was strangely distraught.
Her ring blade was diverted only lacerating his back. His kick was misjudged, but still hit her shoulder to where his death would be delayed. “One of us...has to die. So just lose for once in your life you goddamn harpy and die!” he said. “Oh dumb-fuck.” She began. “I’ve had mundane sex longer than this. Say hi to your asshole boyfriend in the afterlife for me.” He pulled the gun from the accident scene before saying, “That blade is shaped like a ring, but with you it’s a crutch. Let me help you out with that.” A bullet had gone through one of Catya’s wrists causing her weapon to be dropped.
“You goddamn coward!” Catya shouted. “Time to die bitch. I love you Roger!” Levi roared. He went to deliver the final blow, but Charlie decided to derail his plan. “Hey jerk-off! Guess what an ‘Assyrian Apex’ refers to.” He swirled his custom halberd enough to create a gust of wind to send Levi in the air. Charlie then waited for Levi to fall at the perfect angle. When he was prime for death, Charlie impaled him. Levi’s death cry was heard as one last shot for Catya. She approached him, gave him a dirty look and finally cracked his neck. “All that for some ‘occupy’ protester. You were sad in existence and will be more so in the afterlife. Two more words; you lose.” She said.
The crew had made it back to the base, but Catya was both furious and shocked that she had taken on injury. “How did this base, crass ‘ism’ manage to inflict this on me?!” she roared.
Sydell urged her to hold still before saying, “Levi was fighting based on the fact that his lover had died at your hands. It was based out of revenge, but it was enough to where he could fight.” “I can’t blame him on that behalf.” Catya began. “Out of all the nights however, why this night? Why not anytime before The Derby? There has to be an underlying intent for this. I can’t accept the idea that anyone, let alone that worthless cur would go on this long before trying to strike.”
Sydell had finished treating Catya’s injury before chiming in, “With the heightened intuition of the group, the answer should appear in no time.” That night as everyone was sleeping a thud was heard from their base. Dolly had sprung from her space the fastest to see what was going on. All there was to see was an intruder who had fallen to a trap set by her. “It’s some fuck-face knocked out. Take him to the alley for questioning.” She said. Catya and Luke dragged the body to the alley. Charlie stood him up, smacked him and said, “Wake up you facial waster!” The intruder found their inhospitableness insulting. “Whoa...what’s with the roughness?” he asked. McRay answered forcefully, “What’s with you barging in on people’s beauty sleep you goddamn jag off?!” Dolly put her gun to his head and said, “I may be a cat, but I ain’t got your tongue motherfucker! Start talking!”
He tried his hands at being cheeky with them.
“Why you foolish...scrumtrulescent punk-asses! I’m the sexiest man you ever met in your life!” Catya interjected, “I don’t know what makes my blood boil more. The poor content, the poor vernacular, the poor timing, the poor execution or the fact that you of all people tried to make others happy knowing your death is much overdue.” Emasculated, he started talking; he said, “My name is literally...Joe Schmoe.” Charlie snided, “...and you pop out of nowhere just for a 50/50 chance of making a name for yourself. Take a number, dipshit.” Luke added, “Usually when people say you’re special, trade in the sentiment for a hockey helmet.” McRay added to that saying, “You’re so boring, useless and dense I couldn’t pick you from a lineup surrounded by empty bottles of Pennzoil.” Sydell had the capper saying, “You’re so insignificant you couldn’t pay a hooker to scream your name out.”
Dolly said to him, “Unless you want to tangle with us, just do unlike your virginity and get lost.” Joe replied, “Eat Uzi lead you sons of bitches!”, but right as he pulled out his Uzi, Sydell smacked him on the brick wall with her kanabo. His body hit the ground, with his gun now property of the crew. “How sad.” She began. “His trip to the afterlife was the only time he went anywhere.”
After regaining time for their beauty sleep, the crew awoke to find the LMFAO horde phone was a messenger they wanted shot.
“After the last legal hurdle was cleared, the first public memorial concert for the victims of The Derby massacre has been given the go-ahead. The concert will be held at the Friedan Institute for the Arts.” For once, the feeling of confliction had consumed them. “I don’t know about this one.” McRay said. “It might be ground for a ‘Gleek’ resurgence, but this is the Friedan we’d end up dilapidating.” Charlie remarked, “Good things sometimes go out with the bad. You know the saying, ‘Cream rises to the top; so does the scum’? Well when the scum goes down, the cream does just as unfortunate association.” Catya looked him in the eyes and said, “Wow. I had no idea you could be deep. Now if you’re done playing philosopher, we need to vanquish mutated ‘Gleek’ people.”
The crew headed to the Friedan, but before they proceeded, they all paid respects for the institute in silence. McRay then gave the crew the go-ahead. “You may have been named after one of the reasons feminism exists today. However, I apologize for destroying you today.” He thought. The sextet waited until the two cast members of the show not involved in the massacre whatsoever took the stage. “I see the closeted bully and the one who plays handicapped approaching the stage now.” Luke said. Suddenly, Dolly noticed a coalition of sorts had been following them the whole time. “Who would track us down like this?” she thought.
She locked eyes with the leader of the group. It was the frail looking teenager from The Derby coalition. “Hey kitty kitty!” he shouted. “I forgot to say my name. It’s Liam.” “Dolly? What’s going on?” Charlie asked. “The coalition from The Derby mission is here to help us out.” He replied, “Oh cool. Go ahead and...give them the go-ahead.” “Ok guys! Do what you did to The Derby to this place!” she yelled. The mob broke through the Friedan’s doors and proved that history can repeat itself in ugly, brutal ways.
Unfortunate patrons in the lobby tried to flee, but to no avail as their blood hit the ground. One was even clueless enough to try to warn the crowd. A bullet from Dolly’s “Black Cat” had silenced the warning. The area housing the actual concert would soon turn to another mass grave. “Gleeks” and other patrons were slaughtered almost with too familiar and sickening ease. A rabid “Klaine” devotee had attempted to blindside Luke, but Charlie and McRay finished the devotee off with the “Tijuana Wishbone”. With Charlie on the left and McRay on the right, the two pulled the devotee’s legs apart, and went upwards. The final snap indicated the nuisance was no longer. The mob cornered the closeted bully and the one who played handicapped. Liam asked, “Who do we convince not to testify?” “The one who plays handicapped. The bully can die.” Catya said. Liam directed certain mob members to a separate room to “negotiate” with the one they spared.
“What are you going to do to me?” The bully asked. “If you have to ask, your death will only end up more gruesome than you wish.” Dolly said. “Come on!” he began. “I’m barely associated with the show!” Luke said, “We know that. That’s why we’re only going to do the ‘25 Cent’ with you.” “What in God’s name is the ‘25 Cent’?” The bully asked. “Think to the Spanish Inquisition. Imagine the inspiration for the move, quartering. Instead of some schmuck, imagine you.” Luke replied. Before the bully could respond, he was already subdued in the makeshift station for the “25 Cent”. “Now don’t think we’re going to stop at quartering you.” Dolly began. “There is a bit of a surprise at the end.” McRay, Charlie, Catya and Luke took to the ends of the machine they felt like. Dolly and Sydell watched the bully squirm “long enough” (roughly five seconds) before saying, “Go right ahead and finish him.”
The four then began to rotate the gears to quarter the bully. His scream crescendoed from light agony to feeling as if his limbs were melting like butter on lobster. Catya was the first to fully detach a limb from him. “Oh goody! I can make a wish for...well it would behoove me not to say it out loud.” She said. McRay was the next to have removed a limb from the bully.

“I won a prize!” he said. Charlie and Luke then simultaneously ended their parts of the “25 Cent”. Dolly went up to the now limbless bully to toy with him one last time. “Here’s the surprise I mentioned before. It’ll be...a mix of agony and expedient death.” She pulled out a chisel and a Ziploc bag containing five dollars in quarters. The bully looked on in horror and bewilderment. Dolly then studied the bully’s throat and upon further inspection deemed it unworthy. “It simply will not do. From the looks of it, your sternum is no good either. Luckily for you, I’m not inhumane enough to jam the five dollars through your urethra.”
She grabbed the chisel and aimed for his temple. “If you shut up, it’ll be over a lot faster.” She said. The impact of the chisel was enough to finish the bully in one fell swoop. Ten more strikes were made before Dolly bore a hole in the skull “worthy” enough to host the five dollars in quarters. “I’d open the bag but screw that! I’m just placing the bag inside.” She added.
Before parting ways again, Catya queried Liam as to why he assisted the crew. “What gives? We know what we’re capable of. Why did you come here?” Liam replied, “You helped us at The Derby. We felt the need to pay back your favor. That and uh...Kitty Kitty over there.” Sydell chimed in, “You do realize that she’s a fifteen year old runaway with a gun and pseudo mercenaries acting as a surrogate family to her, right?” He replied, “Minus the whole age thing, she’s still worth keeping guard over. She’s a decent person with issues like a magazine subscription. Ok, it’s more like the anthology of National Geographic, but that’s beside the point.” Dolly was flattered, but ended up saying, “We’re just friends. At least until I turn 18 and you somehow still exist.” “Fair enough Kitty Kitty.” Liam replied. Then the question of what happened to the one who played handicapped was raised by Catya. “What happened to high roller with the negotiation process?” Liam had checked with the mob to see how it turned out. The severed head indicated that the one who played handicapped was not willing to negotiate. “Hush money can’t shut everyone up...sorry boss.” A member said. “Well let’s get out of Dodge fast.” Luke said.
The crew and the coalition made peace with one another before going their separate ways. As they hopped in the dune buggy, Dolly wondered if sticking to her principles would have personal repercussions. “Did I do the right thing? I only expressed no interest to avoid ending up a whore for getting with a much older guy while I’m illegal.” From afar Liam said, “Chill out Kitty Kitty. I understand perfectly.” “Well that settles that matter.” Dolly said. Cruising along she noticed potential roadblocks as the crew were leaving the Friedan. “It’s finally come to this hasn’t it?” she said.
Catya looked at her and asked, “What the hell is going on?” She replied, “That legion of douchebags we’re dealing with aren’t just base douches. One, among them is my brother. He’s a real blockhead and Jersey Shore loving jackass. Two, these as a collective are worse than douchebags. Take a whiff of the pungent cologne they have on to see what we’re dealing with.” Catya sniffed the cologne and easily detected the species the roadblocks were. “Oh God no! We’re dealing with...‘broheims’.” One of the broheims had come forward and had attempted to speak. The emitted noises from him however, caused immediate discomfort for the crew.
“Goddamn!” McRay said. “He sounds like the teacher from any Charlie Brown cartoon with the spooge of Sylvester Stallone stuck in his throat!” “I’m not sure how that qualified as English. Maybe Dolly’s brother can try to explain their M.O.” Sydell said. “Goddamnit!” Dolly shouted. “I’m only doing this so we can get this shit over with. Mikey! What the fuck do you want?!” He came forward and said, “Everybody back home misses you. Didn’t you get the messages we sent you?” “I don’t have a FaceBook you fucking dingus!” she said. “Come on Dolly. Every person we know from home wants you back. Besides, you haven’t even finished your early leave semester at school.” He replied. “Nice try, jackass.” Catya said. “Dolly already took care of that online.”
Mikey responded with a bombshell. “There’s a reason we sent Joe Schmoe out to your base.” “How the hell did you know of the base?!” McRay queried. “There was never any paper trail left by her.” Mikey began. “She’s always frighteningly excelsior in leaving no trace of her. It was only through Joe that I knew she was alive. He thought you all were a bunch of ruthless thugs holding her hostage for some ransom.” “If you know this much already, why are you here?” Luke asked. Mikey replied, “I might be ‘some blockhead’ to my little sister for liking trendy stuff, but I’m not a deplorable being. If it serves as any consolation, I refuse to watch any reality show on TLC.”
Dolly wasn’t having any of this. She pulled out Joe Schmoe’s Uzi and said, “You have two choices. Go back alone in peace or go back in a motherfucking body bag. Either way, I’m not leaving.”


trEND Act I Part II

They were directed to the room where Dolly was paying respects to Carlyle. “Psst...Small Wonder!” Luke said. “Oh...hi guys!” Dolly said. “Sorry for the scare but...the mission had me in a rage of sorts.” McRay asked, “Why is Carlyle’s oilpaper umbrella on your person?” Dolly replied, “I want to pay her tribute. That and I wanted to be her inspiration for playtime today.” “Inspiration?” Luke asked. She answered, “You know...who she based her style after. Setsuka from Soul Calibur III.”
McRay sweetly said, “For being able to fit in with us pseudo mercenaries, this is one of the sweetest things I’ve seen.” “Other than Sugar’s cane?” she fired back. “Just get in the dune buggy.” He replied.
The crew spent another three hours before heading to a safe distance away from the vigil grounds. “Remember this now everyone.” McRay said. “We’re about to deal with rabid beasts with no sense of shame. Kardashian fans are known for being around Khloe’s size and possess orc like ferocity.” “They can’t be that much of a threat. They don’t understand anything mental let alone battle tactics.” Catya retorted. Dolly replied, “Stupid things like them can kill things just as much as anybody like us. We already know we’re much more advanced than those motherfuckers. We still need to exercise caution.” Catya nonverbally agreed even though she thought the hordes were so dense and lifeless, they needed watering twice a week.
After the briefing was discussed, the quintet hopped in the dune buggy and began to near their targets. As they encroached the crowd’s proximity a wild, rabid Kardashian fan leapt out and nearly attacked the group. Luckily, Luke smacked the fan with a Weight Watchers meal knowing it would deflect off the fan flawlessly. “How many points was that bitch?!” The crowd let out collective beastly roars of disdain. “Oh God! How do those qualify as speech patterns?” Dolly said. McRay said to the crowd, “Ready to die because you give a shit about a Kardashian fragrance?” “I’ve always wanted to see Kardashian devotee blood on the streets!” Catya chimed.
The crowd grew restless and the quintet attacked from that point on. Every fan had attempted to take one of the crew’s life...Dolly had become their main target. “Why are they after her?!” Luke asked. “Kardashian fans hate subtlety. Dolly better be able to handle herself.” McRay said.
Dolly sadistically introduced herself to the venomous beasts. “Want to play? My name’s Dolly...but today I want to be called Setsuka. Normally it means ‘snow flower’ but today it means I collect your fucking head!” She began her onslaught soon after the introduction. Despite the differences in stature, Dolly took out mass amounts of the Kardashian hordes. Her movements were able to fuse grace and brutality with every devotee that fell to their deaths.
However, Dolly’s raw strength was diminishing to where she had to stop in order to catch her breath. “I better not be getting weakened against them.” She thought. She looked up to see the rest of the crew fending off and killing other devotees of the Kardashians. Catya was tearing them limb from limb with a macabre ease. McRay was bashing in skulls and crushing windpipes with intensity. Luke and Charlie led on hordes for the same game of chase that led hordes to their death only a mass traffic accident can be responsible for. Dolly regained her strength in full, but noticed that the field would turn to a diminutive yet daunting task. “Guys...” she started. “...I think we’re going to have some more playmates.”
A limousine in a gaudy, maudlin custom pink pulled up to the grounds. “It can’t possibly be...them.” McRay uttered. The limousine door opened and three lurid examples of the human sex drive stepped out. Luke and Charlie were shocked at them showing up (for about three seconds). “I know it’s a ‘vigil’ for the fat one’s...unisex musk but did they need to crash the event?!” Luke said. “We need to make sure everyone...especially McRay is ok.” Charlie replied. They went to where the rest of the group was, but noticed Catya was growing uneasy. “So, the human condoms of Calabasas have come to play with us pseudo mercenaries? I can take them all by myself.” She said. “Don’t get ahead of yourself kiddo.” McRay began.
“Especially with the fat one. She fights dirtier than sensationalized politicians in campaign season.” Then, the one with the large ass came forward to state their business.
“Since I’m the only one who’s ahead of the reading group here…I’ll be the one trying to convince you to abandon your stupid cause.” The one with the spawn followed suit saying, “We don’t know what you’re problem is with us. We were here to commemorate the short life span of Khloe’s fragrance.” A noise had been randomly emitted which had Dolly saying, “Now there’s wolves or...some big monster around.” The one with the large ass said, “No. Khloe is just as pissed as we all are.” “Let’s just get this over with.” Catya said. “The sooner we all kill you, the sooner we can all end this.” She took the first swing at the one with the spawn. The ensuing bedlam would go on for three and a half hours.
Forty minutes into the fight, Catya lacerated the left glute of the one with the large ass. “I forgot what that felt like.” She said. Catya retorted, “You sick whore! I’ll cut your heart...or some other innards out!” At the one hour and twenty five minute mark, the one with the spawn had been amputated. Luke and Charlie had subdued her then proceeded to chop her left foot off. Finally at exactly the three hour and thirty minute mark, Dolly and McRay each delivered the final blows to each one of the three she-hell creatures.
“We might be stupid, but even we know defeat.” The one with the large ass began. “Now in code with traditional Norse customs...ugh...we have to commit Sudoku to honor the great founder of that code, Chaka Zulu...wait; Chaka Khan.” Each of them was in tears as they began to disembowel themselves. “Unless you want me to finish you off, get on with it already!” Catya roared. The three finished themselves and the crew was relieved that their fight with them turned victorious. They headed to their base to rest up before they would sense an upcoming mission.
All of them examined every square inch to ensure no trap had been set to kill them in retribution. No traps had been set even after slaying Kardashian fans and the three hell creatures in which were responsible for the now deceased hordes. “Let’s just get rest.” Dolly said. “Oh and if you three have sex tonight...make sure it’s with protection and try to keep it down.” “We’ll keep the ‘noise’ down if you promise us one thing.” Luke quipped. Dolly asked, “What is that ‘thing’ or ‘condition’?” He replied, “Don’t play ‘Domino’ by Jessie J in retaliation. If you want to fight noise pollution, your approach is misguided.”
The crew went another night without a hitch...although for McRay, Charlie and Luke the night grew personal. “I don’t understand why I’m bored now.” McRay began.
“I have frequent sex and a thirst for action like every man dreams of. Why do I grow bored of it now?” Charlie was initially skeptical but said, “Well...it could be you might think it all has grown to a state of predictability.” Luke added, “That and you’re hankering to top either of us for a change.” “Besides that, you two are hot and right. The rarest find ever imagined by man.” McRay said.
After adding another night of “Three’s Company” to them, they along with the rest of the crew noticed an impending mission. The phone read, “Amber Rose to host memorial in honor of LMFAO and Nicki Minaj fans alongside the fans of and the actual Kardashians.” Catya expressed concern for the mission at hand. “Does Amber Rose qualify as a big enough celebrity for us to kill ‘fans’ of hers?” Dolly then noted, “Amber was just switched out for Audrina Patridge.” Catya responded, “Oh we can proceed as planned.” McRay started up the dune buggy for the venue site. Luke asked, “Should I be on the lookout for any rabid fanboy in the area?” McRay expressed his command rather non-chalante like. “If it is a fanboy; kill it. If it isn’t; knock ‘em on their ass anyway.”
Before the halfway point, Sydell appeared in front of the crew. Her appearance initially had the crew thinking she had gone turncoat. “Sydell...be honest with us.” Charlie began. “Are you part of an ambush effort against us?”
“No.” she said. “My fucking co-workers insisted that I dress in...this getup for some bullshit FaceBook thing.” “Those bastards!” Dolly shouted. “You don’t have to tell me twice sister.” She replied. “The reason I’m here is that I have something to give to one of you.” She pulled out a Desert Eagle and hollow point bullet pack. Dolly lit up with the question, “Who’s that for?” Sydell replied, “It’s for you, Dolly. There’s even something on the side to make it special.” Dolly looked at the side to see the phrase “Black Cat” engraved on the side in gold letters. “I will make you so happy you gave a 15 year old runaway a gun.” She joyfully said. Sydell then ended the meeting by wishing them well. “Hurry on you damn crazy martyrs you.”
Another fifty minutes elapsed before the crew reached the memorial venue. The sight of the crowd size sickened all of them, but none more so than Catya. “Some skinny white twat can have this many people at her fucking beck and call?! That tears it...I’m going in!” She leapt from the dune buggy and headed for the crowd’s center. “That goddamn nutcase is begging for death!” Luke said. Switching up their mode of initiation, the crew stampeded through the crowd in the dune buggy while all saying (in a cheeky manner), “Talk about being over ‘The Hills’! Bad puns make everything seem like it isn’t supposed to suck that much!” By the time they caught up with Catya, they knew she was in front of them physically.
However, she had been in such a rage, she morphed into her alter-ego, “Blyvy”. “Blyvy” was a woman who acted on the impulses not even Catya would in public. “I always feared ‘she’ would make reappearance.” McRay said. “It gives me a rush to fuck people up, but the bitch scares me.” Blyvy recklessly severed heads to and fro all in the hope of vanquishing Audrina Patridge. “Ready to go in everybody?” Charlie asked. “All right then...now go ape-shit!” The crew each had their share of easy wins, but found that this group of fans had some resistance level to most of their attacks. Dolly, on the other hand took the high ground approach.
As a hunter could do from an apex above a feeder, Dolly waited for those dumb enough to pursue her to render them deceased. Any who gained “supernatural” ability to jump close to her, were smacked in the temple to ensure death on impact. Suddenly, her peripheral vision saw Audrina approaching the center of the stage. “What the hell is she doing?” Dolly wondered. When she saw a suspiciously off-white daisy in her hands, Dolly wasted no time in recruiting the rest of the crew who hadn’t been “morphed.” She, McRay, Charlie and Luke headed to where Audrina was standing. “All we want is you in the ground you second rate ‘celebutante’ trollop!” Luke said. Audrina replied, “All I have is a white daisy to commemorate the lives that presumably you took.”
Charlie kicked the daisy from her hands to find that it was part of a Wushu three-whip sword. “Wow.” McRay began. “Something cheaper than the extensions in your hair. How quaint.” She clenched her weapon in preparation to strike. She swung the whip only to have it blocked by Blyvy. “Drop that two-bit excuse for a weapon if you want your death quick. Otherwise, you’ll die a painful and agonizingly tepid death.” She threatened. “Come at me bitch!” Audrina replied. That would be the last and most distinct mistake she would ever make.
Blyvy swung the blade lacerating her torso, but it didn’t end there. She then swung the blade and chopped Audrina’s arm off. Audrina was screaming in pain, but Blyvy was saving her most vicious move for last. She then unleashed the “Croatian Buzzsaw” to permanently vanquish Audrina from the Earth for good. Blyvy jimmy-rigged a flat “work station” to turn the blade into a “mock” buzzsaw. After spinning the blade fast enough to get the motion right, she picked up Audrina by her feet, swung her then slammed her on the blade jamming it furiously. Audrina screamed in intense pain to let death consume her peacefully after that. “This ‘Blyvy’ person won’t take her seriously will she?” Dolly asked. “She’ll laugh at her then ignore her.” McRay said. Blyvy didn’t laugh first much to everyone’s surprise, but said, “I’m not some mindless person that performs for your whim.”
Audrina replied, “I’m not asking you to be Lauren, LC, Whitney...” Blyvy interjected, “Slutty, Dopey, Doc and the one who sits on all the faces of the men. The quicker you die, the quicker I can wipe the blood from my blade. Now just die already so it could be said you did something for a change.” She spun the blade one last time to recalibrate the momentum.
She then picked up Audrina, slammed her on the ground to add insult before slamming her on the blade. Her death cry was said to have shattered the sound barrier. That’s what Luke deciphered after reading many tweets declaring that, “The great barrier reef was broken by some power bottom or murder victim. #keepitdown #lulz;wtf.” In mere seconds, Blyvy had collapsed struggling and contorting her body into awry angles and caddywhompus planes. “Oh no!” Dolly shouted. “Catya must be dying!” McRay reassured her, “The turning back phase is always a bit more intense than the turning into phase.” Dolly sarcastically replied, “Gee whiz! You were able to find the wizard key! Anything else you care to share ‘enlightened one’?” Catya was reborn through her re-baptism of fire.
“Whoa.” She began. “Did I just perform the ‘Croatian Buzzsaw’ on Audrina Patridge?” “Yeah...well ‘Blyvy’ did.” Luke said. “Well...” Catya said. “Well what?” Charlie queried. “Where’s my motherfucking Nobel Peace prize?!” she finished.

“Glad you’re back to...well...glad you still exist you crazy bitch.” McRay said.
The crew headed back to the base where Dolly sensed that someone was waiting for them. “It isn’t malicious but it’s just as freaky.” She said. They headed inside and examined their surroundings before noticing something was off. Dolly saw the visage of Mama Joseph was showing their hero in a lucid resting expression. “Guys...you don’t suppose her spirit is among us now, right?” “The exact opposite, kiddo.” McRay replied. Catya then sensed that a foreign energy was being emitted from the part of the bookstore that housed the humor/joke/non-fiction area. “Just follow the energy and don’t lose your cool.”
The trail of energy eventually led to them seeing a familiar face. “You knew this moment would come.” She said.
“Is that...Mama Joseph?” Dolly asked. She looked at Dolly and smiled. “Do you know where Carlyle ended up, Mama?” McRay asked. She replied, “Carlyle is actually undergoing reincarnation.” “How come?” Charlie queried. “Did she repent before Buddha or something?” “No. She’s being reincarnated because her death wasn’t natural. Also worth mentioning is that she hadn’t achieved what would be considered her prime.” Mama Joseph said. Catya wondered then asked, “What would a person who did horrible things like her be reincarnated as?”

“Well, Carlyle just had a horrid outlet for her emotional turmoil. The rest of you do as well, so my suggestion is to stop sipping that ‘haterade’ you foul little harlot.” Mama Joseph replied. “Haterade?” Luke stated. “We barely met but I’m starting to question your handle of the English language.”
Mama Joseph put forth a legendary putdown Luke would not forget.
“It’s oh so amusing yet ignorant of you to question the handle of the English language to a bookstore owner. Without my name on the sign, you would be nothing but mere carbon-based life who would beg for death from a sleazy suitor after a go-about of coitus. Are you done questioning my authority you worthless, loathsome, marginally attractive cur?”
“Luke’s at a standstill...so I think you shattered any chance of hearing even a vague retorting.” Dolly said. “Sadly, it’s always the ones like him that turn rather...subdued after hearing the truth. How would you phrase it outside of the bookstore?” Mama Joseph said. “He’s too much of a fucking wimp to handle the truth.” Dolly replied. Mama Joseph closed her visitation to everyone by saying, “You are all noble despite your insatiable bloodlust. If you thought you had something to prove to me, you never did. Trends eventually die their deserved deaths. Yet it must be at the hands of the incubi and succubae alike. When they tire of feeding, the trend will die. I love you boys and girls. Oh and McRay...if you ever decide between the two, New York and Washington State just legalized gay marriage.” She then dissipated to her place in the afterlife. The portrait reflected her closure when the stern expression reappeared as it was painted.
The next morning, the quintet met to decide what their final score should be. McRay looked through the news the LMFAO horde phone had to see if anything could pique their bloodlust one last time. “Our final score has to be something worth killing off worthless people...yet having those on our side to prevent us from getting killed.” He said. “Oh look.” Dolly began. “The cast of ‘Glee’ and a lucky twenty extras to perform at The Derby. The confirmed date is February 14th.” “I was hoping more would come along as extra for...what’s it called? Dramatic effect.” McRay said. Catya was already in the dune buggy urging everybody to ready themselves for battle. “Come on already! You know I hate two things just as much as homophobia and nuclear programs in dictatorships. Valentine’s Day and fucking ‘Gleeks’...oh those ‘Gleeks’ piss me off. Every time they breathe, the noise is grating.” Charlie smacked her across the face. “Damn bitch! Chill out! Finish them off when we get to The Derby.” Forty-six minutes later, the quintet arrived at a rather large scale gathering. Visually, nothing added up which left Catya the most perplexed.
“They’re stopping this...with poster boards? Dolly, go see what their M.O. is...I only suggest you because you’re the youngest.” “Fair enough.” Dolly said. She went into the crowd before finding someone she deemed “smart enough” to converse with. “You with the dopey fashion sense!” she said.
A frail looking teenager gave back eye contact. “What’s up, pipsqueak?” “What’s going on here?” she asked. “It looks like some ‘#OccupyDerby’ crap.” He replied, “We’re not like that. This ‘Glee’ crap is going on when something of value should be going on.” Skeptical at first she asked, “What would that be?” “A play that slanders Shakespeare.” He replied. “That’s called ‘Romeo and Juliet’ dipshit.” She replied. “Well even that would be better than this ‘Glee’ horse-shit.” He said. “We need a way to get rid of these wastes of human condoms!” “Do you know how to use a gun?” Dolly propositioned. She escorted him to the rest of the crew as she explained the crowd’s M.O. “Good enough for us!” Charlie said. “Grab those pissed off enough to join us.”
He convinced the crowd to band together to take down the production. “Alright, listen up.” McRay began. “When I say ‘go’, you’ll follow Catya in the charge. Catya is the bat-shit woman with the rainbow ring blade.” “That’s ‘Bat-shit insane woman with the rainbow ring blade’!” She interjected. “It’s like ‘A Pimp Named Slickback’. You say the entire fucking title!” “Isn’t she as classy as warfare folks?” McRay snided.
Moments turned to minutes...this annoyingly grew to even more minutes which made everyone anxious. “That should be the entire cast about to start the show.” Charlie said. “All we need are the two ugly ones in love; ‘Kurt’ and ‘Blaine’ is it?” “Those two are at the center of the stage now.” Dolly said. “Everybody ready?” Luke asked. “Do we think Gerry Sandusky will burn in hellfire?” the crowd roared. Luke turned to Catya, who was foaming at the mouth.
“How fast do you want the countdown?” he asked. “Just tell him to give me the go-ahead.” Catya said. “Turn that remark into a sex joke and I’ll have you turned into a compost heap.” He alerted McRay of Catya’s condition. He responded, “Alright everyone! Ready, set...go finish off the fans and cast of ‘Glee’!” His command would leave the entrance of The Derby worse than dilapidated.
Those unfortunate enough to be near the concession counter met savage ends to their lives. When the mob had broken through the doors, the brutality only intensified. Some “Gleeks” were inane enough to attempt combat. Catya made sure their heads were smashed into pulpy remnants of human matter. “Oh...so ‘Gleek’ blood is as tacky and gold-leafed as I feared.” Catya said with an unusual feeling of disgust. Members of the mob had successfully done two things. One, they had confined the cast to the stage.
Two, they had spared Jane Lynch and Amber Riley after convincing them not to testify against the crew should they be arrested. Then, Dolly sadistically toyed with each cast member in the line of fire.
The most offensive one was the first to learn just how he would die. “So ‘Kurt’...” she began. “Do you know what kerosene is?” He fell into the trap when he attempted to speak. Four pints of kerosene were then force fed to him through a funnel. To add further agony, she force fed him ipecac through that same funnel. His enflamed vomit covered more than enough of the stage to mark his death. “That ladies and gents was the ‘Guantanamo Mouthwash’.” The lippy blond and the blonde cheerleader were brought forward to meet their end. Charlie brought a helium tank forward, and then proceeded to place a tube in each of their mouths. “It’s the only death befitting airheads.” He said. It only took twenty-four seconds; but the lippy blond and blonde cheerleader had met death when the helium became too much causing their eyes to pop from their heads.
When the females who played lesbians were brought forward, the one named for the guitarist asked, “We’re not dying for playing lesbians are we?” Catya responded, “No. You’re dying for something actually considered bad; starring in a goddamn musical.” The two were then impaled through the abdomen by Charlie’s halberd.
“The death will end up slow. Complaining won’t be needed from you two.” The plus-sized actress was brought for her death. “Let’s just drain her blood liter by liter.” Dolly said. “Considering how your co-stars have died, can you leave a smile on your face?” Charlie asked. The plus-sized actress replied, “You don’t have to ask me twice.” As her blood drained, the crew noticed the Asian-American cast members had died by their own hands. “Oh come on!” Luke said. “We were just going to set them on fire, and they stereotypically die.” “Kurt’s” other half was the only one remaining. Catya wondered, “What happened to the one with the fucked up hair?” McRay had the answer when he dragged the body of the now bald and deceased “What hockey players hit”. “All I did was shave that landing strip...and the son of a bitch ran and jumped from the rafter thing; prick.” The other half tried to convince the crew to end things now. As he was speaking, Dolly knew he was only making idle promises to save his ass.
“Please spare me. I promise to leave the industry forever if you let me live.” Dolly proclaimed then and there, “Bitch please! You wouldn’t give up what people with and without talent want more than anything.” He attempted to toy with them with the line, “Come on. What could you do to a face like mine?” McRay answered, “Curb stomp it until your face gets...well uglier than it is...only with blood.”
Charlie followed with, “Twist your head around so I couldn’t see that ugly mug of yours anymore.” A mob member shouted, “Yeah! You’re so ugly, your face should be donated to the U.S. Bureau of Wildlife.” “You have a face for Photoshop!” another shouted. “Every time I see your face, I’m tempted to look up Best in Show for the Westminster Dog Show on Wikipedia!” yet another shouted. “You resemble what a podiatrist treats!” a fourth shouted. The other half went silent before saying meekly, “Could you let my fans know I couldn’t have been here this long without them?” Catya reminded him in a rather brash manner, “Yoo-hoo? Remember what happened before you and the rest of them were cornered? Your ignorance happens to both baffle and disgust me; congratulations!” He meekly spoke again, “So how do you want to finish me off?”
Catya thought for only a picosecond before saying with sick jubilation, “Oh just a move I call the ‘Japanese Club Soda’.” “What the fuck is the ‘Japanese Club Soda’?” the other half queried. “Oh you dolt! You just went down in the annals of history for the dumbest last words spoken!” Catya replied. She pointed to a mob member and asked, “May I borrow your kanabo for this?” After cooperating, Catya wielded and swung the kanabo at the other half. Surprisingly, he was only stunned despite the amount of blood dripping from his head. She swung again and he fell to the ground bloodied, but alive.
“You’re still breathing?!” She furiously questioned. “Can that racket and die already!” She then had one of her cruelest moments in some time. The crew knew what was coming alerting the mob, “You’ll know the ‘soda’ part of this move to your graves!” Catya then pulled from a “Gleek” corpse a bottle of club soda. Then she asked a mob member if any salt was seized in the early raid for makeshift weaponry. A large salt can was then delivered to her. She mixed the salt and club soda before saying, “Tell me if this tastes good!” The screams as the mix entered his wounds echoed through The Derby. His reverberations had even some of the mob members disgusted. “Yikes!” one began. “I thought the only way to make someone scream this much was for them to read Snooki’s autobiography as a birthday present.” Another said, ‘I play video games by Rockstar and watch horror movies week to week. I never thought I would be grossed out by salt and club soda being poured into someone’s wounds.”
Even McRay voiced concern; “Catya...please tell me the next move will finish him off. We have some mob members vomiting.” Dolly chimed in, “Yeah...you might want to speed things up a bit.” Charlie went in further, “I’m holding Luke because even he won’t look until that fucker ends up mulch.” Catya toyed with everyone for another hour. Every ten minutes, she held a magnifying glass saying, “Not enough tears are running down his face.”
She also asked for onions to, “Make him cry enough before ‘nap time’...” “Are you sure this isn’t ‘Blyvy’ taking over?” McRay asked Catya. “Blyvy would’ve killed him in the onslaught. She isn’t playing right now.” She replied. Finally at the sixty minute mark, she picked up the kanabo. “She’s finishing him off everybody!” McRay said. They watched as Catya swung from the rafters; then used the momentum to land the strike on the other half in the spine.
The crunch reverberated more disturbingly clear than his screams before the strike. “Here’s your kanabo back!” she said to the cooperative mob member. “You go ahead and keep it...there’s still some smoke from it.” The mob member replied.
The army walked from The Derby which now resembled ruins of an ancient civilization. The crew turned to face their “minions” for the day; in a show of thanks, they threw leftover money from the LMFAO massacre. McRay said, “Remember what we did today and end the trend.”
