instructions, but I got the basic gist of it. I unplugged the power cell unit from under my armpit, having to lean to one side to overcome a weird constriction around my chest, and got ready to insert it into Koochy's powered-down suit. It still didn't go in right so I flipped it over and tried again. Fuck! I should have known that would happen. I flipped it once more. Fuck! … Fuck!
"What the fuck? For real? How did I have to flip it three times to get it to go in?" I exclaimed. Out of all the things that had happened to me so far today, this really pissed me off. I kicked at the power cell, stumbled, and ended up bruising a few of my dicks for my efforts.
"FUCK!!"
Despite these problems, the power cell lit up and the damaged suit blinked a meaningless status code from a holographic display. But at least the flashing digits were green and not red or anything.
"Or Blue, even," TK interrupted my thoughts. "That's what you were thinking about, weren't you?" she berated.
"Dammit, TK, you know I wasn't thinking about her," I thought loudly. "And she's dead! In fact, the last two girls who sucked my dick are both dead!" I realized I'd given away too much information and ruined my previous evasion, then decided everything was terrible anyway.
"Preston. Chesticles. Is that a threat?" she interrogated. "And I'm surrounded by these guys, are you going to hurry up!?"
"No! Yes!" I answered. "Look, I'm behind schedule and working through my task list. I'll get to you next!"
"So I'm not your top priority?"
I ignored her, I didn't have the patience for these status reports. She'd be more reasonable in person, I figured.
"Ay, now plug me into dat suit right'chere!" Koochy said. "I'm gonna donk out dat body propa' like, fixin' ta' get my ganja tele-fuckin'-port system done up riiight!"
I did as Koochy requested, inserting the compute-pad into the suit's other port. Luckily the ports weren't damaged. The plug seated with a click.
"Oh sweet! Hey!" I beamed proudly. "I got it in on the first try!" I looked around for approval.
"What yo ass want, a damn cheevo?" Koochy berated me. "Now, looka here, dis about to be some shit to see, righ' chere, son! Just lemme get my motha fuckin' down low on, son!"
Koochy went silent for a few minutes and I reflected on the crowd of followers I had amassed. Would they allow us to leave them? Would I have to kill them all in order to see TK again?
"Awww, yeah, booyyyy!" I heard Koochy's voice echo from the compute-pad. "Big Kooch back up in dis shit, fo' rea'!"
Koochy's cadaver still looked quite dead, his jaw broken and lying dully open. However, his suit began to move. He looked like some kind of zombie as he began to take his first awkward steps around me. Quickly, his confidence grew, as did his dexterity, and soon he was cavorting about, throwing gang signs gleefully. Well, his face didn't look very gleeful being dead and all, but his body sang like a high school thespian as he pranced and boasted.
"Fuck yeah, look at me, P! Look! At! Muh!" he strutted.
"Can we get out of here now?" I was a little revolted at the sight of the undead Marcus. To make it even more creepy, his suit moved exactly in the style I recalled Marcus' living body moving. The resemblance was uncanny.
"Hell yeah, son. We best get tha fuck out!" Koochy stopped moving and appeared to be looking for an exit.
"How can you see anything?" I inquired, curiously.
"Dis busted ass compute-pad got a camera on it. But look, fo' rea', we gotta get to some damn fo' rea' bandwidth and some mufu'n' nuclea' powa if dis hea' body goan be up in dem guts again, ya hear' muh?" he explained.
"There's a huge door over there. See it?" I gestured toward where we had limboed in.
"Sheit," Koochy cursed from the compute-pad. "This shit a piece of shit, cuz! Cain't see a damn thang. Fuck's tha rezzy on dis bitch anyhow, 4k? Get tha
