A/N: YAY a new story. This story is kind of true. I hope you like it. Enjoy reading.
Chapter One
Todd was sitting in the grass, out on the field. He was trying to think. After all there was no one around for him to steal money from and the other guys were out doing something without him. Giving a small sigh, he started to catch the flies that were flying around. He sat up and looked to see if there were anymore and noticed that Rogue was walking around the field. Giving an evil grin, he quickly hops over to her.
"Hey there yo," Todd said, hopping right beside Rogue, trying to check if she had any money in her pockets.
"Go away Slime Ball," Rogue said in her not so nice voice.
"Come on," Todd said, hopping in front of her so she had to stop walking," No one can say no to this face."
Rogue rolled her eyes, before taking off one of her gloves. She gave a small smile, when Todd gave a small yell and quickly hopped a few feet away from her.
"Now lets not go there yo," Todd said.
Rogue rolled her eyes again and looked back at Todd. An idea came to her mind, but she thought he wouldn't believe it. It was worth a try though.
"Did you hear the news?" Rogue asked, in a mysterious voice.
"Hear what?" Todd asked, looking a bit confused now.
"I heard from a person who can see into the future," Rogue whispered in a spooky voice," That the earth will be set on fire. This fire will destroy everything. There is only one way to survive though."
"How?" Todd asked, in a very scared voice, getting down on his knees he started begging for the answer.
"You have to dig a hole about twenty feet deep," Rogue said, watching as Todd wrote it down on his arm with the pen he had found on the ground," It has to be that much deep or you won't survive. You have to stay down there for five days. On the fifth day the fire will be over and everything will be fine."
"How will everything be fine yo?" Todd asked, looking confused again.
"You will be alive won't you?" Rogue asked, folding her arms, trying not to laugh.
"That's true yo," Todd said, than looked back at Rogue," Do I need to take anything important into the hole?"
"You can if you want to," Rogue said," You best start digging though. The fire is supposed to start in seven days."
Todd screamed and raced off to the brotherhood house. Rogue watched as he ran, than she burst out laughing.' That was just too easy,' Rogue thought beginning to walk back to the mansion,' Wonder if he is really gonna dig a hole?'
Todd ran into a store and started looking around for shovels, but there was no shovels to be found. He ran out of that store and into another. He ran to about ten different stores before he had found a shovel. He quickly ran out of the store without paying for it. He ran all the way to the brotherhood house. He stopped for a second to look at the house.' I will miss you yo,' Todd thought. He ran inside and up to his room. He dropped the shovel on the floor and began to put some of his clothes in a bag. After he was done with that, he quickly picked up the shovel and ran into the back yard. He began to dig his hole right in the middle of the back yard. Pietro, Lance, and Fred came home after about an hour.
"That was boring," Fred said, sitting down on the couch in the front room.
"Has anyone seen Todd?" Lance asked, about to head into the back yard.
"He's right behind you," Pietro said, looking into the back yard," I think."
Lance and Pietro headed into the back yard and looked at the hole that Todd was digging.
"What are you doing?" Lance yelled, looking down at Todd.
"It's already five feet deep," Todd muttered, than he looked up at Lance," Rogue told me that the earth was going to burn in seven days and that I needed to dig a hole that was twenty feet deep or I would die."
Pietro and Lance looked at each other, before they started laughing. Todd continued to dig his hole. Pietro nodded his head and Lance nodded his. They decided to play along with this little joke.
"I heard that same thing," Lance said, causing Todd to look up at him.
"You did yo?" Todd asked.
"Ya," Pietro said," We heard about it yesturday."
"Then why didn't you tell us yo?" Todd asked, looking a bit confused," Why aren't you helping me?"
"You have to dig your own hole," Lance said," We already dug ours. We dug them somewhere that no one will find them."
Todd gave a small groan and he continued to dig. Lance and Pietro headed back inside, before they burst out laughing. They sat down on the couch, while Fred stared at them.
"What's so funny?" Fred asked.
"Todd thinks the world is ending," Pietro said," He's digging a hole to save himself."
"Oh," Fred said, giving a small nod.
Lance and Pietro started watching tv. Todd was still digging his hole until about three in the morning, when he fell asleep in the middle of the hole. The next day he didn't go to school, but he continued digging his hole.' Must finish digging hole,' Todd kept thinking,' Can't stop now. Must finish.'
A/N: Wow, the first chapter is up. Yes, this is based on almost a true story. When I was in fourth grade I told two kids that that was going to happen and they believed me. I went by their house three days later to see that they were digging a hole and had some stuff packed to put in it when they were done. Yes, it was very funny.
Well, I hope you like this chapter. Please review.
