The Crow: Phantom Gate Part 4

The Crow: Phantom Gate Part 4

2:00 AM - Thursday, August 3rd
Ricky's apartment, the moonlight shining in through his open window. A nice summer breeze is coming through on this dark, and surprisngly dry night. Ricky is sitting at his desk drawing for her, drawings she will never see. The crow is outside on a branch on a tree that is right next to Ricky's apartment building. He gives a kaw. Ricky looks over at him.
"What? Can't you see I'm drawing?" He says to the bird.
The crow just flutters his wings and looks at him.
Just then a loud banging noise is heard coming from the front door, the crow flys into the room and goes to the living room and lands on a shelf and watches the front door. Ricky goes to answer it, but it slams open and Mark walks in before he could open it.
"I didn't forget your little disruption on the bus earlier, I knew it was you behind the make up, I had to come see it for myself. It seems I didn't finish the job, but that'll change now." Mark says to him in an angry tone.
"I want my life back, Mark." He replies.
"What life? I killed you because you were stalking my girlfriend and she wasn't too happy about it! I did a justice!" Mark tells him.
"That's bullshit and you know it! Me and her where in love!" He yells.
"What are you talking about? She had no idea who you were and just noticed you leaving her drawings at her apartment all the time. She thought you were gonna rape her!"
"Wha...?" Ricky says in confusion.
"Thats right, she has no idea who the hell you are, she wanted you to stop bothering her."
With one bolt of rage Ricky takes his DVD shelf were the crow is standing and throws it to the ground, hundreds of movies are scattered throughout the room and the shelf comes crashing down.
"Woah, a little angry?" Mark asks him.
"You're feeding me lies! I hate lies!" Ricky yells.
"No it's all true, dude, I'm not lying about anything!" Mark says in fear.
"What about on the bus when you were making out with that random girl, you were cheating on her, you bastard!"
"What are you talking about? That WAS her!"
"What?"
"Yeah, you started yelling at me for something and then you started picking a fight and then the bus driver came and tossed you off the bus." He tells Ricky.
"Bullshit! You had your hired muscle shoot me and then everyone ran off the bus and then you started driving and the black guy tossed me off the bus!"
"Dude you are seriously fucked up, none of that happened, you were tossed off the bus by the BUS DRIVER."
"Alright thats fucking it! Get the fuck out of here!" Ricky yells.
"Okay, Okay, I'm out of here, just take it easy, yo." He says as he runs out.
Ricky starts tearing apart his living room, the crow watching his every move. He's rolling around in the debris caused by his anger. He gets up and goes to the background. Ricky looks at himself in the mirror, the make up there and everything. He puts his hand into a fist and punches the mirror, and starts to bleed from the cut.
"...I thought I was supposed to be... invincible...?"
