Neon Lights--An Original Comic

PART ONE: "Wake Up! It's Time to Get Ready!"


--Sneaking into the shared room of himself and his fiance, Lex flops on the bed, awaking his sleeping lover.--

CAS- (awake and shaken) WHY?!

LEX- Because I love you~!

CAS- This feels less like love and more like torture.

LEX- Awwww, don't be that way! We're getting married in a few days! (get up, turn corner) There's some coffee in the Keurig, Love~

CAS- Right. (yawn) Guess I need to get up now. (Get up, prepare for the day) Time for another day of insufferable humans.

--Cas exits the bathroom, dressed and ready for the day. He enters the kitchen and is greeted by Lex sitting on the counter. Lex hops off and gives Cas a kiss on the cheek.--

CAS- (flustered) I gotta get to work, but I'll see you on my lunch break. Bye...

--He turns around, holding up a small kitten and hands it to Lex--

CAS- ...and I love you.

--He exits the house, smiling softly.--

PART TWO: "Enter: Neon! The stalker!"

--Cas is walking to work. He passes a brightly coloured girl who promptly begins to follow him.--

NEON- Cas~! What a surprise! Are you on your way to work! Let me walk with you!!

CAS- No.

NEON- (laugh) Awe, you're so funny! I almost thought you were being serious! That's why I love you so much!

CAS- Neon. I will say this slow enough for your crazy little psychopathic brain to process: I. Am. Engaged. I want nothing to do with you because I have someone. Now go away you stalker.

NEON- So what if you're engaged? I still love you even though you're clearly cheating on me! See how great I am?

CAS- Leave me alone. Please. Go back to your little hideout and paint or something.

NEON- It's not a hideout, Cas!

--she hangs upside down from a tree in front of Cas, smiling widely.--

NEON- (cont.) It's my house! I'll have to show you later.

--Cas grunts and shoves past her--

CAS- Yeah, I don't care.

NEON- Hmph! You're sooooooo boring.

CAS- Don't care.

NEON- Good thing I'm not! See how perfect we are for each other?? Like a yin and yang-

CAS- Oh my GOD! I JUST WANT TO WALK TO WORK IN PEACE. PLEASE. LEAVE ME BE!

NEON- Ah... Okay!! I'll walk with you when you go to chick-fil-a during your lunch break!

CAS- freaking FINALLY.

—he then continues to stomp down the sidewalk as Neon stares at him lovingly—

NEON- God I love him~


PART THREE: Let’s Get Cookin’!

—Lex is in a small bakery with a girl adorning bright pink hair. She hums a cheery tune as she decorates a cupcake to look like... something.—

LEX- Ah! Cookie the best thing happened this morning!

COOKIE OR CARA- Did Cas get you a cat?  

LEX- It was adorable! Cas is so sweet. I love him so much UwU

COOKIE- did...did you just say UwU out loud?

—their conversation is interrupted by a tall girl with silky black hair walking through the door. She is accompanied by a peppy girl with earbuds and bandages over her eyes.—

NOKKEN- God morgen, venner. (good morning friends) What is on the menu today? 

MEI-ITSUKA- Can I borrow a charger for an MP3 player?? mine’s dead!

LEX- Morning Nokken and Mei! Today’s special is strawberry shortcake. 

NOKKEN- Alright. I will have one of those then. 

—she hands Lex the amount due and glances over at Mei, who has found a charger for her MP3 player. Mei happily taps her foot and nods her head as she waits for Nokken to join her.—

COOKIE- Uwa!! This cupcake is soo cute! 

LEX- Cookie... That cupcake looks like-

COOKIE- Like a severed head? That’s what I was going for!! It looks awesome~

NOKKEN- It looks good. 

COOKIE- Hahaha! I love making spooky sweets! I have some eyeball cake-pops, I have brain cake, I have Intestine shaped rice balls... I just love making cannibal based food!

LEX- Hahahah... right...

—Lex scoots away, now uncomfortable. Cookie laughs loudly and continues to create cannibal based sweets.—

LEX- (bringing a plate of strawberry shortcake out) Well, Here ya' go Nokken! Enjoy and have a nice day!

NOKKEN- Takk skal du ha. Vær lei av Cookie. (Thank you. Be weary of Cookie.)

--Nokken walks over to Mei and taps her shoulder. They both exit the bakery as Lex waves bye and smiles politely.--

LEX- I have no idea what she just said.


PART FOUR: Cheers Love, Smile for the Camera!

--There is a girl with short, fluffy hair wearing claws playing with something on the floor. Cas is standing a few feet away, staring blankly at her.--

CAS- What-

SHREDDER- Playing with yarn!  I understand why cats like it so much. This is fun!!

CAS- O-kay. (turn to someone off panel) Are we here for a mission? If so then I need another cup of coffee.

--A tall young lady comes bounding forward. Her long dress is in pristine condition and her matching combat-heel boots are laced and tidy. She smiles triumphantly.--

IRIS- I have information! There's been sightings of a siren near Carlisle Lake.

--A young man is shown. He's only a teen, about 19 years of age. He smiles.--

LEO- Excellent. Shredder and Stardust are to investigate, but Nurse I is to stay here and finish filing the paperwork on her recruitment. 

IRIS- *she frowns* What? No way, I found the information, I wanna go too! *she goes to follow the other to, but is stopped by Leo's arm*

LEO- No, you need to finish your paperwork. I let it slide the last three times, but now it's overwhelming. Go do your work.

IRIS- Ugh. Fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine.

-Iris stomps off as the other two laugh and exit the room. Shredder and Cas are walking down the street. Shredder, or Nicole, is snapping pictures on her Polaroid. Cas sighs.-

CAS- Why did you bring that?

SHREDDER- I'm gonna get a picture of the Siren. I love taking pictures of supernatural things!

CAS- Okay. Anyway, after we go to Carlisle you wanna stop by Hot Crossed Buns and get something with me? I'm going to-

Shredder- To see Lex? I know. But yea, I'll text (insert character name) and it can be a double date! *Digs in pocket* Hm. *Digs around in the small backpack at her side, then yelps* My freaking claws! oUCH!

-Cas reaches over and pokes her waist. She looks at him funny before checking her belt. Sure enough, her phone is there.-

SHREDDER- haha, oops. Happen to know where I can get this fixed?

-Shredder holds up her hand and smiles sheepishly. Her hand is cut open and bleeding profusely.

CAS- God. Yea come one.


PART FIVE- "Talkative and Tired! The Perfect Problem!" 

CAS- I know a girl in here that can easily fix your hand but I gotta warn you, she's a little much. 

SHREDDER- Much you say? I'm a little much! I'm sure we'll get along just fine! 

-both walk into the little clinic based hospital. At the front desk is an averaged sized female who looks quite happy. She greets the two without using her mouth, and with a... male voice?-

BABBLE(MALE)- Welcome to the clinic! Give us all your money if you want to live! 

-Babble then brings her hand up to her face, looking a bit frustrated.-

BABBLE- Hey! You were supposed to say "Welcome to the clinic! How may we help you?" Not "Welcome to the clinic! Give us all your money if you wanna live"! How many times are we gonna have to practice that? 

CAS- Babble, no time for jokes, my very smart friend here cut her hand open. We need you to bandage it up. 

SHREDDER- I'm the smart friend! 

BABBLE- Oh? Well it's nice to meet you! My name is Diylan, but you can call me-

HAND- Dyslexica!

BABBLE- I told you not to call me that! You're on time out!

-Babble shakes her hand aggressively, the mouth morphing back into normal flesh-

BABBLE- Sorry about that. Anyway, you can call me Babble! Come around the desk and follow me, I'll get your hand fixed up right away! 

-Shredder's hand is fixed with a simple bandage and gauze.-

CAS- Great, no we can actually do our job. Come on, Shred. 

SHREDDER- Oh. Alright! Bye Babble, wonderful to meet you!
BABBLE- Oh, good to meet you too! I-

HAND- Take better care of your hands! Stom kind!!

BABBLE- Where did you learn Dutch?!

-Shredder and Cas walk out of the clinic and continue on to Carlisle.-
