The air was hot, but the dew was cold. The Warner's were making trouble as usual. Since it was a peaceful day the Warner's were louder then ever. Yakko was banging pots and pans, Wakko was running in circles like a maniac, and Dot was singing a tune. As we all know Ralph gets very annoyed by them. But today was different. He was calm. Didn't even complain about the noise. Yakko accidentally tripped over Wakko's foot and the pots and pans landed on Ralph's head. His face was as red as the lava coming from an erupting volcano. There was a big bump on the top of his head.

"WARNERS!!!" he shouted.

They quickly lined up single fine side by side. They all looked at each-other and said:

"Were sorry!" then they scurried always as fast as they could.

They thought that they could get away but Ralph grabbed them by their arms and said:

"Sorry's not gonna cut it." he continued, "you've done this to me to many times."

They all frowned. They've been scolded plenty of times but never like this. Ralph is usually calm about this punishment but those pots and pans really turned on his brain a little bit.

"I've been real easy on you guys escaping the tower. But now your going to get a punishment." Ralph thought for a moment. What could he possibly make them do? Then he had an idea. "You shall clean out the basement."

"The basement?" Wakko asked scratching his head.

"Yes, its at the very bottom of the water tower." Ralph replied.

"Nobody has been there in months. Years to be exact." Yakko stated.

"This face doesn't belong somewhere dirty. It's to cute." Dot added.

Again Ralph thought about what they all had to say. But that didn't stop Ralph from changing his mind. Nothing could be more worse then cleaning the basement. Especially since you don't really know what's down there. As Yakko said nobody has been down there in years. More likely it's used for storage but people just throw things in there.

"Meet me tomorrow at the basement. Then I will tell you your real task." Ralph told them.

The Warner's frowned again and walked slowly back to the tower. They looked out the window and simply did nothing.
