the day the blondie stood still

Dorek sat down in a bar, total silence across it, "hey bartender get down on the ground real quick." Dorek wore a blue shirt, torn jeans, sunglasses and a leather jacket, his hair let down as well "if you say so." the bartender ducks under the bar and then a man walks through the door, the sunlight shining in and reflecting on the glass filled with jack daniels, the man had white horns like a demon that sprouted from his temples, a cow tail from his lower back, red hair, cigarette in his mouth, grey torn tank top, shorts with dirt on them.

a stern look was on this mans face as he walks towards Dorek, "Dorek the watcher, ain't you a sight for sore eyes." the man had a noticeable accent but it wasn't too noticeable, you could just hear a hint of it "Zuri, how was the trip back to south Africa?" Zuri puts out his cigarette in a nearby ashtray "it was nice, my mother's doing good and visited a relative's grave." Zuri blew out a puff of smoke through his nose like a bull "how are you my friend?" Zuri rests his legs on a nearby stool "well Lucy died, Phil did and London, Bernard is out for the count and now its just me, puppet boy, teleporting pirate, a failed hypnotist and purple boxing gloves to kill those people, bastards halting our business." Dorek looked at Zuri who had a chilled out face "well that is a real shame for you, oh by the way I saw the cutest dog back home." Dorek grew annoyed at Zuri "Zuri I don't care about what dog you saw I need help!" Zuri turns his head towards Dorek "Dorek I'm not helping you with your problems, I've got my own shit to deal with as well." Dorek looks at Zuri who was now wearing a red cape "really?" Zuri then grabs a drink "what? can I not have a nice cape?" Zuri asks with his lucious silk cape flowing down from his shoulders "look Zuri, my guy, all I need you to do is just kill these people, that's all i ask!" Zuri thinks about it, his look resembling someone who doesn't wanna get caught cheating on a test "my pay?" "it'll be enough to cover your rent and to pay for a nice meal at that restaurant you like." Zuri stood up with his cape trailing behind him "I'll handle it with ease, also sorry about the bartender." as Dorek looks into the future he covered his mouth, trying not to puke and as he looks up he saw the bartenders mutilated body hanging up.

Frank looks at a package of sliced ham at his local supermarket, looking at the food "hmm this day feels too normal, like I'm in friends but without the laugh track." Frank looks over at Sam who was acting like a NPC "hmm these will be good for the winter." he caused Frank to smirk underneath his scarf "Sam you fucking numskull." the two continued to joke on together until they reach the counter "oh hey! you two are the guys who killed that Lucy guy!" the cashier said and he was met with Sam's smug face "yes it is I-" "Sam move!" Frank quickly pushes Sam into a self check out machine, as Sam looks at Frank he saw Zuri standing their with his cape flowing down like a feather "ah shit don't tell me you're one of Lucy's lackeys!" Zuri then turns towards Sam and stances up like a boxer's stance, confusing Sam but then he felt sudden pain at the centre of his chest, as if someone had punched him "hey cowboy, just what the hell are you doing?" Frank asked but then he felt a immense pain in his stomach, like someone pummelled it stomach like it was a cockroach that wouldn't die "I'm guessing this guy has a power to make your organs hurt randomly!" Frank makes a finger gun gesture and aims it at Zuri "its useless." "hey shut it you cowboy, I have you know these two will have ease bea-" before the cashier could finish his sentence he was punched through the stomach, leaving a doughnut shaped hole "Frank I say we should just run away!" Sam quickly suggested but then a crater appeared next to his head "now blonde I need to ask you something..." and right before Frank's eyes Sam and Zuri disappeared into thin air, with a post-it note being left behind, Frank grabs the note and looks at it 'borrowing blonde for a bit, for compensation turn over.' Frank turns over the note to see one singular penny taped to it, Frank sighs as he burns the post it note "fucking knock off cowboy."

in the blink of an eye Sam saw he was on top of a building, Zuri being right beside him, eating some fries "how the hell did I get here?" Zuri stops eating the fries "me, duh, stopped by a fast food place as well." as Sam looks beside Zuri he saw a cheeseburger that Zuri left alone "take it, it's a good meal." Sam took the burger and sat down next to Zuri "I'm guessing you're going to kill me soon?" Sam asks with a bit of fear in his voice "maybe, don't really know yet." he looks into the bag of fries and noticed he was out "well I'd appreciate it if you didn't kill me, got a boyfriend, soon to be husband actually." Zuri peers over at Sam "usually I wouldn't be as accepting of things like that but... go you." Zuri said, looking down on the city "when is it happening?" Zuri asks the confused Sam, Sam looks at his phone "uhh, three months from now." Zuri wraps his arm around Sam's shoulder "I once had a love too, she was amazing, a very kind personality, tough and mean at times but every relationship has ups and downs." Zuri stated but then Sam looks at him "what happened to here?" Zuri lets out a faint sigh "we broke up, nothing was working out and the spark was gone, maybe it was something I said or something I done." Zuri stood up on the ledge, his cape flowing in the wind "but who knows what could've been, can't change history, well I can't but I'm sure someone in this crazy world can." Zuri pauses and then shook his head "oh yeah I need to get rid of you!" he grabs Sam by the collar of his shirt "now goodbye blondie!" he threw him off but then he jumped up in the air, his arms held out wide "the world!!" he paused time as he was still in the air, he stood on Sam's torso, his body on pause amidst the air, Zuri crouched and looks at Sam's face "hah, he looks so dumb when he's frozen in time." he said before he raised his hand but then someone grabs his hand, as he looks behind he saw Shigi staring down "hey." "hey." Zuri goes back to staring at Sam until he realised "wait a minute!" he goes to punch Shigi but he isn't there and as he turns back around he met eye to eye "even though I might not be able to see you, I can tell you're a strange one." Shigi said as he started to walk on the air like it was nothing "now listen I know you don't want any sort of trouble, so how about I let you go and we don't speak of this." Shigi offered, Zuri felt every hair on his body stand up as Shigi sighs with a tired look on his face "pffft! you're all bark and no bite you bastard!" Zuri brings up his arm and strikes down on Shigi but.... he went back to staring at Shigi "is that a no?" he asks as he stood up "wha-" Shigi grew frustrated "I said do you wanna forget about this or not?!" Zuri quickly raises his leg and belts it into Shigi's head but he then Zuri went back to be looking at Shigi and he sighs "look, I've got other shit to deal with like papers and people." Shigi then unpauses time with Sam and Zuri falling to the ground but Shigi stayed in the air, floating down seamlessly "I've gave you enough chances," he then spits at the ground Zuri stood on and like that Zuri just fell into the ground with a crater appearing underneath him (what the hell!!? either the ground was really weak or that just happened) Zuri looks up at Shigi who was holding a bent paperclip "what's that gonna do?" Zuri asks before he watches the paper get engulfed in a yellow aura and then Shigi slashes the air and destroyed Zuri and also half of the city, with rubble and split towers floating in the air and then he turns to Sam who was terrified by Shigi "great now I've got a mess to clean up." then he reversed the time on the buildings, restoring the buildings and the slaughtered people back to life and then Shigi walked away with the paperclip being restored back to its original shape but Shigi didn't even reveal the full extent of his abilities.
