CHAPTER 4: FRESH ARRIVAL

[Track 1]

...HER!!

KATH: Um... you're Rei Reil?

REI: Wanna go out some day? I think we should go out sometime.

KATH: No. Just sign here, ok?

REI: Lookie here, i just woke up and you were in my dream and in that dream, i was dreaming you were dream-livering a package for dreamy old me

KATH: Wait... I think i remember you

REI: See? I'm not crazy!

KATH: No, it's just that this very convenient subspace highway goes through your mind space

REI: ...Huh?

KATH: What?

REI: What in the world are you talking about?

KATH: Didn't you learn about it in school or something?

REI: Uh... No? That's why I'm asking

KATH: It's like a highway but like... of the mind. You guys from Nutolia probably don't know about it.

REI: Sounds cool... Um, i suppose that's an LA, right? Are you from there?

KATH: Yeah, why? Do i look gay or something?

REI: Don't you remember the party from the other day? Kathryn, right?

KATH: Oh, gosh... you asked... i thought. Gosh, I'm so sorry for thinking you were a crackhead!

REI: Don't worry, i get that one a lot

KATH: Anyways, you still gotta sign the package

REI: But if i do so, you'll be gone!

KATH: Yeah... That called a "job"

REI: But, at least, can we at least go out sometime in the future? At least to get to know each other? I mean, you're new here, right? I was born in the place you standing in, I've seen everything this place has to offer

KATH: You're pretty insistent...

REI: More like... insistently irresistibly sin-cerious

KATH: ...And ridiculous

REI: Please, you HAVE to go out with me!

KATH: You want me to go out with you?

REI: Um, yeah... but like... if you want...

KATH: I'll go out with you if you sign the package already

REI: Yeah! Definitely! Awesome! ...Uh, how about at 8?

[Track 2]

Later, at 8, Kathryn is atop the fourth wall, (now known as the fourth stairwell) reading the info sign with all of it's history when Rei walks up that damned stairwell!

REI: What ya doing over there?

KATH: Reading this sign... and waiting for you

REI: It's not that cold around, right? I don't think i need this jacket...

KATH: What's that burning eye patch? On your jacket?

REI: Oh, this? Well, looks like someone here does know the piece fit and the other doesn't

KATH: You're such a nerd! What's next? Fibonacci? Did you make that patch youself?

REI: I will not be answering that... So, how'd you end up here?

KATH: Um, it's just that i got this job. Gene always told me Nutolia was... um, a place on earth?

REI: Who's Gene?

KATH: Oh, He's just a friend. What do YOU do for a living?

REI: ...I have no job...

KATH: Have you EVER had a job?

REI: Well, my last job is a long story filled with blood, sweat and tears... for fear. Maybe we can talk about it on the next book.

KATH: My last job... Don't even wanna talk about it...

REI: So, you're leaving that one up to the Later Alligator?

They both sit down on the swing that used to be green and now's pure red

REI: So, Subspace highway, or whatever it's called-

KATH: It was an accident! I didn't mean to make you crazy over me!

REI: It's just... I haven't been this crazy over someone in a long time...

KATH: You have a room mate, right?

REI: Yeah?

KATH: And he's a guy, right?

REI: Uh huh? Why'd you ask?

KATH: Then you sleep with a guy, right?

Rei is stunned still while Kath swings

KATH: I was just guessing by the look of your apartment but it looks like you actually DO sleep together! YEHEHEHEHEHE

REI: It's just... we're poor, OK?! We can't afford a beds or a bigger place!! We ain't gay! Wait, Mark is gay but I-

KATH: Relax! I believe you!

They get up to leave when it starts to rain blood

REI: You made me feel idiotic...

KATH: come on, guy. you're not THAT stupid!

REI: I'm all dumb, no ass

KATH: You must have been pretty dumb for wanting to go out with me tonight

REI: Wait, WHAT? Why? Nah, i was smart enough to convince you to go out with me

KATH: But not smart enough to look at the weather report

REI: Was it THIS cold when we were out?

KATH: I think a blood storm is gonna start...

REI: Was the weather this bad where you're from? Where are you from?

KATH: I grew up on the famous Mt. Blood

The storm gets harder, better, faster, stronger

KATH: This storm's getting fuckin' ridiculous

REI: Kathy... I can't see...

KATH: Can you see... something?

REI: I see... a door? In the middle of nowhere?

Kath grabs Rei's arm and take his through that door and through another before arriving outside her place

KATH: Superfast!

[Track 3]

They go inside and take off their soaking coats and hang 'em high

REI: Welp, what a wondeful date we had, right?

KATH: It's not over yet, the night's still on.

They go up her stairs and into her kitchen where Rei sits on the table while Kath looks through her drawer

KATH: What kinda tea do you want?

REI: There's more than one? What ya got?

KATH: Well, I've got Blueberry, Honey, Strawberry, Green, Growler, Jordan, Yellow, Sponge, Lemon, Blood honey, Vanilla, Korn, Tenacious, Joplin, Superfast Jellyfish, Nut, Almond, Constantinople, Doormat, Hyde, Secret, Fudge, West, Human Flesh, Eepy, Paul's Special, Honey Bucket and Earl 16

REI: Uh... I'll have the same as you. Wait, did you make most of them up?

KATH: So we'll be having the Superfast?

REI: Yes, please

Kathryn make the tea for them, Rei takes a sip

REI: Hm... taste just like chicken...

He continues to sip but he's shivering so hard, he spills all over himself

KATH: Gosh, you're shivering like you're dying... let me get you a blankie and a new shirt

REI: Yes... please...

Kath leaves and Rei follows her, only to find her shirtless so he closes his eye

KATH: DUDE! I'm changing!

REI: AAAH!! I'm sorry, i was just cold!

KATH: Can you feel this? Does it make it better?

He opens his eyes and sees Kath is hugging him

[Track 4]

KATH: I'm cold too...

REI: Kath... I...

She pulls away to look into his big green guinea pig EYES before realizing how close her face is to his, then... she... well... Now this like when lips collide, now this is what it's like... Damn, Rei. you one smooth mofoker. And so, Kath takes off her skirt while Rei takes off his shirt, and they get under the gosh darn blankie while tonguing each other down like they're cats drinking water from each other's mouths. Then, she gets on top of him before her glasses fall off of her face and on Rei's face.

REI: Kath... What about the tea?

KATH: Who cares about the damn tea

REI: Kath... I'm not sure about this...

KATH: Oh, well... Whatever... Never mind

REI: Nevermind what?

KATH: I don't wanna bone, Rei.

REI: Good, me neither. I just wanna cuddle you to sleep... you know, cuz we're both cold...

KATH: I was thinking just the same

And so, they slept in each other's arms until the next day. Rei gets waken up by the birds outside SCREAMING. He then sees Kath in the bathroom brushing her teeth. And after, They get dressed and get out of her house

REI: Hey, can we make this not just be a one time thing?

KATH: What do you mean?

REI: Hm... Oh, right! I've got a band. You should come to our show at the Wordington bar on Weednesday at 9!

KATH: You've got a band?

REI: Yeah! We suck but you should come too

KATH: Sure... See you there then

She skates off. Later, Rei arrives home where inside, he sees Mark in THEIR blankie drinking hot choco.

[Track 5]

MARK: Haven't you ever heard of closing the god damn door?!

REI: Dude, i was just trying to get inside

MARK: Whatever... you got a dumb letter for your stupid ass

REI: A letter?

Rei grabs the letter

REI: Anyways, i was gone cuz i was on a date with a girl called Kathryn and-

MARK: Break up with the high schooler

REI: I know, i know. I'm working on it.

MARK: What's in your letter

REI: Uh... Um... It's about some kind of like battle with some guy called Xavier...

He crumples up the letter before lying over on bed

REI: ...I don't remember signing up for the WWE newsletter but... that's awesome... Hey, Mark. Tomorrow we have a concert at the Wordington bar, you should come... There will be many homosexual men there, i promise!

MARK: Only if you break up with Paula

Rei then remembers he's got band practice so scream into his pillow before he goes on his way, walking through all the blood but he's determined he'll get there before 9
