I don't own Ben 10 characters.
*Yuck! Broccoli!* Sublimino thought while he focused on a plate. Scowling, he used his fork to move the vegetables around. He observed his mother sitting across from him. *Mom is going to be here for another week. She loves cooking vegetables.*
He saw a scowl on his parent's face.
''Eat your vegetables!'' Sublimino's mother exclaimed.
Sublimino continued to glower. He reached into his coat pocket and revealed a pocket watch. He began to grin. *I can hypnotize my mother into baking brownies and maybe a tall cake* Sublimino thought. A frown replaced his grin while his shoulders slumped. *My mother is a hypnotist like me. She will use her own pocket watch to hypnotize me.*
''Eat your vegetables!'' Sublimino's parent repeated.
After trembling with rage, Sublimino smiled. *I might be able to avoid eating vegetables* he thought.
Sublimino groaned before he touched his stomach. ''I'm so sick!'' At least it wasn't a complete lie. Broccoli always caused Sublimino to feel queasy.
''I guess you can go now,'' Sublimino's mother said with a frown.
''Thanks,'' Sublimino said. He continued to groan as he departed. Grinning again, he opened the front door and went outside.
Sublimino closed the door. *I'll go to the candy shop. I don't have cash, but my pocket watch will enable me to get what I desire.*
Sublimino ran to the candy shop. After stepping into it, he saw rows of chocolate. He grinned another time.
A man approached Sublimino. He smiled. ''Hello. Are you searching for anything in particular?''
Sublimino moved the watch in front of the man's face. ''Focus on the watch. You are getting sleepy,'' he said.
He proceeded to smile another time. *I'm looking forward to eating as much chocolate as possible. This man will obtain candy for me.*
''Are you trying to hypnotize people into giving you candy?'' Sublimino's mother asked as she scowled again.
Sublimino gasped after he saw his mother. ''Mom?! How did you find me?'' he asked.
''I followed you.''
''Oh.''
Sublimino's parent turned to the man. ''Summon the cops. My son is trying to steal candy.''
Sublimino proceeded to gasp another time. ''How did you know about my plan?''
''A mother always knows when her son is trying to avoid eating vegetables,'' the woman muttered. She began to smile.
''Why are you happy?'' Sublimino asked.
''You don't like my cooking. You can eat prison food for a long time,'' Sublimino's mother said after she frowned.
Sublimino looked thoughtful. He saw the man another time. Sublimino focused on him. A sudden scowl formed. ''What are you waiting for?'' he snapped. Sublimino paused for a few moments. ''Summon the cops right now!'' he exclaimed.
The End
