Orc...still desperately clutching at his original name of Charles was like everyone else looking worse for wear after three weeks in the museum. He'd been beaten, broken, and upset his best friend by losing his virginity to his best friends Ex-girlfriend.

So...it had been entertaining for the folks at home.

Unable to find Howard he set about looking for Eponine. He had to find SOMEONE soon or he was going to start crying and he might not stop. And men weren't supposed to cry in front of others. Being on TV that meant Orc was always in front of others. And he wasn't drunk enough to cry without shame.

"Eponine?" He grunted as he approached her usual nesting area among the wax figures.

Hot white blinding fury filled his vision. It was all he could do not to trample Mindy right now. Maybe it was because he felt sticky wetness leaking out of his stones as more of the blackish blood trickled down his chest.

"Dying." He rasped and punched the ground hard enough to put a deep dent in the floor. He forced himself to his feet with a trembling arm.

"Got bit by my girlfriend...turning into a zombie." It sounded so stupid now that he said it out loud.

"I've gotta kill him..." He shuddered and the world spun for a moment so he leaned against the wall he hadn't yet punched.

"I tried in the Capitol, it didn't stick."

"Shit, no kidding? Am I going to have to worry about you biting me now? I kinda have to keep going in this Arena. It's sort of the only option I got. Is there nothing anyone can do for, uh, a zombie bite?"

Since when did a zombie bite turn you into a rock guy anyway? Just what kinda girlfriend did this guy have?

God she talked alot. She was asking so many questions he didn't know which one to answer first. Eventually he settled on the question of biting.

"I dunno...probably." He groaned and struggled to his feet. "I gotta find Aunamee. Find him before I die. Not much time left." He tried to shuffle past Mindy as if he had any idea where Aunamee was actually hiding.

"I thought the mask...I thought my powers would save me. But it's no use."

"I kept hearing about masks," Mindy said. "I can't say I felt like wearing any, but it sounds like they make you do some pretty fucked up stuff. How far gone are you, do you think?"

He shook his head not sure.

"Don't feel good. Not hungry but...might throw up." He grumbled "Like the worst hangover ever."

And he'd had some pretty bad ones.

He brought some craggy fingers to his chin and wiped the blackness from it.

"This isn't normal." He added.

So he could still drink, although he was starting to feel sick. Mindy was definitely going to have to be careful around this guy.

"Is anything about our situation normal? Who did this to you anyway?"

"My girlfrrriend." He growled the last word and shook his head with a groan of frustration before he slammed his forehead into a wall putting another hole in it.

"She's sick." And only now was Orc ready to admit she was sick in more then one way.

"I should have protected her. I should have protected someone." He sobbed though his words still sounded bitter and full of rage.

"All I do is break things!"

Someone dated a rock guy? That was not something that she thought she would hear anytime soon. It made her wonder if there was more to the story than she was hearing.

"Sick how? That she's all a zombie now? Yeah, that would follow. How do you get turned into a zombie in the first place though? Seems pretty out of the ordinary. Anyway, relax. You're a guy made of rocks, you're bound to break some shit. Just don't lose it when you do, ok?"

He couldn't. Explaining was getting too hard and he was angry and hungry and she was right there.

"Jussssssst grrrrroo." He begged as he shuddered and threw up bile and blood at her feet. He tumbled forward almost falling on her but catching himself at the last minute.

Ok, he just threw up blood and shit and almost fell on her.

"Since I'm not a dumb white girl, this is my time to go," she said. "Good luck with...whatever the fuck that is."

He waved a hand to try and make her go faster, but unfortunately lack of co-ordination made it more into a crushing backhand. He'd have to apologize for that later.

His head was throbbing. Desperately he hoped that it would go away soon.

He wanted it all to go away.

"Ow, the fuck?!" Mindy reeled, bleeding. Goddamn, ROCK HAND hurt!

In anger, maybe she shouldn't try kicking him though.

"J-just go." He groaned half begging her. When he brought up his head his eyes were full of fear for what he was becoming.

"Please." He didn't want to kill again, especially not a kid younger then him.

"Don't have to tell me twice. I may be a killer, but I'm not betting against rock fucker turning into a zombie. My chances sound pretty shit there."

Plus, she could see he didn't want this and honestly? She felt sorta sorry for him. She'd try to look him up later when he wasn't fucked by the Arena. For now, she was OUT.

"Try not to bite anyone!"

Love bites.
