A/N: Just something random that came to me. Hopefully it's amusing, enjoyable, whatever.
The anticipation was mounting. Everything had gone according to plan. Every detail, every consequence, and scenario had been thought of, altered, and accounted for. Only seconds remained as Hodgins and Zack took their places behind the protective wall. A mischievous smile passed between the two, one that would frighten any innocent bystander. Of course if you had been behind the wall at this particular moment in time, you were no way held by the weight of innocence.
The second hand had almost completed its journey. The two were giddy from excitement as they waited for the immanent. It was time. The two ducked at the precise moment and, nothing. Two dumbfounded faces rose to the window and pressed their noses to the glass. Disappointed with the result they entered the room in hopes to find a solution to their foiled plot.
Suddenly and explosion.
Brennan and Angela rushed into the room to find the two lying on their backs.
"Oh my God! Hodge! Zack!" Angela said rushing towards the two.
Groaning Hodgins sat up and looked around. "Dude that was epic!"
"It appears we have succeeded." Zack replied giving Hodgins a high five.
"What went on in here?" Booth asked nearly slipping on the orange goop that covered the walls and floor.
"We vaporized pumpkins!" Hodgins exclaimed.
"What?" Angela said with anger growing.
"Well okay not vaporized, but we sure as hell blew them up!"
"Hodgins and I saw on TV, two aliens vaporizing pumpkins. Thus our inspiration to recreate the same event, to conclude whether or not the same outcome was possible. I believe you owe me ten dollars Hodgins."
"So this had no scientific value whatsoever?" Bones asked
"Nope, just for laughs. What! No I don't! The pumpkins are in pieces aren't they?"
"Yes, but part of our agreement was the pumpkins would be vaporized, not explode."
"I don't remember that."
"Then there appears to be some miscommunication on your part. As I recall-"
The two continued to argue over the bet while the rest of their team rolled their eyes and left, leaving the two to tackle each other in the pumpkin pit.
