Talon sighed. He shoved his hands in his pockets and closed his eyes. He was clearly annoyed.
"Penny. This is getting boring. Just, let us take over the world. Once. just once is all I ask."
"I agree."
"Really, I mean-wait, you what?"
Penny nodded, satisfied with Talon's reaction. "Not about the world domination thing, but seriously. This is boring. Can't ouruncles just make up or whatever? I mean, they've been arguing and getting mad at each other,
but we've hadto deal! It's annoying!"
Talon blinked. His arch nemesis was agreeing with him. But was she really his arch nemesis? She was siding with him after all. And, she was right; their uncles had been fighting, not them. He supposed she wasn't all bad. If they were just normal kids,
/they would probably be best friends.
So what was stopping them?
Talon ran his gloved fingers through his hair.
"I call a truce." Penny said suddenly.
Talon looked up. Penny was smiling.
Not a I'm-totally-winning smile or a I've-got-a-trick-up-my-sleeve smile, but a real smile. A shy, half smile that reflected Penny, not Gadget's niece.
"I say, we don't need to fight anymore. This is our uncles' deal, not ours."
Talon pondered this. His uncle's schemes were lame... But he was all Talon had. Though, Gadget was clumsy, and Penny loved him, but she called the truce. But, he'd longed to defeat Penny for...erm...a while. And now he was just...
Surrendering?
He sighed.
"You're lucky you're so cute."
Talon put out his hand and shook Penny's.
"Truce."
Penny laughed as the two talked the day away.
