A/n: This is a poem from Dot's point of view. The characters may be a bit OOC, but I knew that was bound to happen. The poem is the story, enjoy & please Read and Review!!
Disclaimer: I DO...not own Yakko, Wakko, or Dot
When they fight I can't take it
They scream and yell too much
I sit there in the corner
Simply hoping they don't touch
-
The last thing we ever need
A big fight on our hands
But it always happens anyway
When no one understands
-
Yakko's streaming hidden curses
Wakko's lashing out
Each of them forgetting
Just what the fight's about
-
I cover my ears
Try not to cry
I close my eyes tight
And whisper "why?"
-
Why must they fight?
It wasn't me, was it?
Okay maybe it was
I have to admit
-
"I ate the last piece
Of Yakko's pie,
Don't blame Wakko!"
I start to cry
-
They can't hear me
Now the yelling's too loud
I'm much too late
It's become a fight cloud
-
I must break it up
But I'm much to scared
They each might hit me
For all they cared
-
I should call for Scratchy,
I know that he could help
I reach for the phone
But I hear a yelp
-
I turn around quickly
To find the source of the sound
Has one of them crossed the line,
To which they are bound?
-
Yes, to my horror
The line has been crossed
Wakko bit Yakko's tail
And to the wall he'd been tossed
-
Yakko fumed with anger
His tail bent at a new angle
He stared at his little brother
Of which he would surely mangle
-
"Yakko, no!" I scream
Though I am much too late
He had already started to run
Each second increasing his rate
-
He rammed the boy on the wall
Smashing him against the cold metal
Wakko stuck to the wall
And then fell like a petal
-
I ran to my brother
As the eldest walked away
Ignoring his brother's whimpers
And his sister's dismay
-
It could've been a simple argument
But it escalated to this
Two brothers fighting recklessly
And frightening their little sis
-
I look my brother over
Some bruises and a gash
"I'll be right back" I tell him
To the bathroom then, I dash
-
On the way I pass our elder
Sitting by the bathroom door
His white gloves cover his face
He trembles on the floor
-
I look back in the living room
To check on my other bro
Then I walk over to the black and brown heap
And look down at my brother below
-
"Yakko?" I ask timidly
I feel afraid and shy
"Please look at me"
He does not comply
-
I stand there in silence
Waiting for him to talk
But then I give up
Into the bathroom I walk
-
I jump up on the sink
And I get the needed ointment
When I come back out
I look to my brother in disappointment
-
I stare for a minute
Then start to walk away
"I heard you."
I stopped and heard him say
-
"What?" I asked
And Yakko let out a sigh
"I heard you say
You ate the pie"
-
I stood there in shock
I hadn't thought he heard
If he had I'm sure
He would've said a curse word
-
"Oh" I said
The first word I could think
"Then why'd you hit Wakko?"
I saw my brother shrink
-
Yakko sniffed back a tear
Something I've never seen him do
"I don't know" he started
"I just didn't think it through."
-
I narrowed my eyes
All of my fear gone
"I thought you knew the difference
Between brain and brawn!"
-
"Now look what you did
You hurt our Wakko
I have to go fix him up
You need to apologize, Yakko"
-
I marched away
And back into the living room
Wakko sat on the couch
His face full of gloom
-
I sat next to my older brother
And I took his arm
"This may sting Wakko,
But it won't do any harm."
-
I spread the ointment
All over his cut
It must've stung a lot
Wakko clamped his eyes shut
-
I winced at my brother's pain
Yet again it's my fault
I stopped momentarily
Sorry for the assault
-
Wakko cracked open an eye
And he looked at me
I was about to cry
That much he could see
-
"What's wrong Dot?"
My brother asked with worry
It only took those three short words
For my vision to get blurry
-
"It's all my fault!" I exclaimed
Tears ran down my face
"I was the one who ate the pie
In the first place!"
-
My body started to tremble
Into the couch my fingers dug
I closed my eyes to stop the tears
Wakko pulled me into a hug
-
"Shhhh"
My brother cooed in my ear
I looked up at him
He wiped away a tear
-
"I know." He said softly
And my brain did a loop
"I heard you say it" he said next
And made my ears droop
-
I looked up at my brother
Now even more confused
"Then how come you let him beat you up
And cause you to get bruised?"
-
"It's my fault you're all bent up
The same goes for Yakko's tail
You two should've never fought"
I said with no avail
-
For my brother was looking elsewhere
Not at my face but another
I stood up on the couch cushion
And looked at the face of our oldest brother
-
Yakko approached the couch slowly
Staring Wakko in the eyes
They both stared at each other
While I stared at the two guys
-
No words were shared
When Yakko came to sit down
Wakko just kept looking forward
And my face had a frown
-
"Sibs…" Other leader started
With the word we've heard most
"I apologize to both of you
For letting this day become so morose"
-
"Wakko, I'm sorry I hurt you
I don't know what I was doing.
And Dot I'm sorry too."
Our brother was stewing.
-
"Sorry for what?" I asked
"It was my entire fault."
Both of my brothers stared at me
Time came to a halt
-
"Sure you ate the pie I had
But that's not why we fought."
"Yeah, I guess we both got caught up in it"
My brothers left me distraught
-
"I started getting mad when Wakko talked over me"
Yakko said with guilt in his voice.
"Yes but biting your tail was something
That had been my choice."
-
"That hurt by the way"
Yakko bent his tail back
"Oh yeah, so did this."
Wakko pointed to a blue and black
-
The Warner brothers chuckled and snickered
At each other's pains
While their sister sat there wondering
If these two even had brains
-
They're laughing after this?
I can't comprehend
I didn't think this was how
The fight would really end
-
I was sure Wakko would give me a slap
And Yakko would give me a spanking
Although I'd much prefer to have neither
So the heavens I am thanking
-
Still confused
About my fate
Regarding the piece of pie
That I ate
-
I snuggled in the middle
Of both my brothers
And linked my arms
Around both the others'
-
They looked down at her and smiled
Feeling happy for their little sister
Then they both put their arms
On the shoulders of the other mister
-
The siblings sat
In newfound joy
Of such a close bond
That nothing can destroy
-
So now I know
That when they fight
In the end
Everything turns out alright
A/n: Aww, I had to end it on a good note or they wouldn't be the Warners! :D
Yeah if you can just do hat right there, yeah that'd be grrrreat
