I've decided to start a series of drabbles. Tori (AzikaRue394) convinced me to by telling me how simple and quick they were to write, and so I thought I might give it a try. Although if you know me at all, you'll know that none of them will ever be one hundred words. XD
I might start another series of drabbles sometime, probably ones about the Majestics.
Anyway, this is the first one and it's the only thing I've been able to write since my mega-upload of four one-shots. :( 'Gathering Majesty' (sequel to 'History') does not wish to be written at the moment...but I promise I'm working on it as best as I can—for those of you waiting for it. I haven't got past the first chapter yet and I feel a little pathetic. -.-'
Hopefully I can at least keep writing these. XD
Disclaimer: I do not own Beyblade, nor do I claim the rights to the game 'Padiddle'...I'm not exactly sure who does.
(If you don't know what on Earth Padiddle is, don't feel bad. I didn't know at first either. XD I'll explain later.)
Enjoy!
Padiddle
"Padiddle!" Michael called out, tapping the ceiling of the car with his hand.
"That's not fair!" Steve protested from the back seat of the vehicle his blond teammate was currently driving. "The driver has the best seat for seeing padiddles..."
"Hey, you're the one who sat in the back," Eddy informed his friend. He was in the passenger seat. "Padiddle!" he said suddenly as his own hand hit the ceiling.
"Nice," Michael commented.
"No fair!" Steve complained. "The passenger seat is the second best seat for spotting padiddles."
"You're just jealous," Eddy told him. "Padiddle!" he said again, spotting another vehicle with only one headlight functioning.
"Yeah right..." Steve muttered.
The drove for a while, and then Steve saw another car approaching with only one headlight lit up. He was about to announce the fact, but the baseball player was faster.
"Padiddle!"
"I saw it first!" the green-haired football player protested yet again.
"You should've said something," Eddy said. "You could be lying for all we know."
"You gotta be faster, man," Michael advised.
Steve sighed and slumped down in his seat, staring intently at the window. He concentrated on the cars on the other side of the road going in the opposite direction.
"Shouldn't you be paying more attention to driving?" Steve wondered.
"Good drivers can point out padiddles and avoid crashing at the same time," the basketball star pointed out.
"I've got skills," Micheal agreed.
"Whatever you say..." Steve went back to being quiet as he continued his search for padiddles. After several minutes of no luck, he decided that he only way he was ever going to see one was if he pretended to.
"Padiddle!" he announced with feigned excitement as he tapped the ceiling of the car.
"Where?" his two companions wanted to know.
"They passed us," Steve answered casually. Some people would believe anything.
The All Starz are one of the most awesome teams. XD
The description of Padiddle: Padiddle is a game that my cousin told me about. When you're driving at night (or any other time drivers use their headlights) you watch the cars going the other way and if you see one with a defective headlight, you shout 'Padiddle' and hit the ceiling of the car. It can be quite entertaining...although I have yet to spot a padiddle.
Review please? I'll write some more if you do!
