TALKING PIGEON

Chapter 1: Playing cool & not Getting Caught

The Robinson House

It seemed like any normal Monday in the Robinson Mansion. Cornelius remained with Carl in his lab upstairs checking a couple of blueprints with the new prototype he had just finished the day before. Franny, on the other hand, kept herself busy in the music room with her frog orchestra and Lucille stayed in the kitchen baking cookies. Her husband Bud was also busy enough in another fascinating quest to find his lost teeth. Probably he'll need some hours more (as usual), to hit the music room and watch if Frankie had them (again).

In the garden

Art and Gaston were out sitting in the unusual bread form lawn covered in mud from head to toe with Lazzlo and Tallulah who had soaking clothes too. A glint of full wrath emerged from the fashion girl eyeing his brother Lazzlo and Wilbur's uncles "I am going to kill all of you for getting me into this mess! Look at my dress!!"

Lazzlo taken aback tried a smooth approach to a very angry Tallulah "Come on sissy. Don't you find it exciting to give our own family pet a bath?"

Tallulah scowled at her brother and grabbed a bucket ready to smash it into Lazzlo's face, "I didn't bring it! And Tiny is not a regular pet! Is a tyrannosaurus rex from the cretaceous era! Can you tell me why isn't Wilbur doing this again?!". Lucky Lazzlo that Art with his perfect timing ability grabbed the enraged sister and Gaston took the bucket away.

Art watched her cautiously and whimpering added "That would be obviously because we all lost the bet in the chargeball match with him." Tallulah pouted "Cousin or not I'll make Wilbur pay."

To put more misery in the group faces Gaston also whined on their misfortune "Yah, yah. Our nephew is just too smart on that thing."

Art rolled his eyes letting go of Tallulah and crossed his arms "Mental note. The next time Lazzlo talks on betting with Wilbur I'll just deliver more pizza out of the solar system".

"And I'll just time race with aunt Billie in my canon" Gaston said.

With all the blubbering Lazzlo who stilled remained quiet began talking again "I promised I'll never. And I mean never…." Lazzlo was cut out suddenly by a deafening explosion followed of tremendous shakes that made the four people fall to the ground and scream in the garden.

Tallulah kept shaking with her hands over her head and Lazzlo looked at the observatory in front of them dumbfounded. Art and Gaston also had their eyes wide in astonishment. Quickly Tallulah uncovered her face and looked in the same direction and saw the observatory in front of them. She blinked and gasped and realization. In a blink of an eye everybody forgot their incident with the T-Rex and they all yelled at once "Cornelius!".

In Wilbur's room

Wilbur was fully entertained standing in front of his HD holographic TV playing chargeball. That was very easy he thought. It was Monday and had no chores at all. Considering that he was in spring break he felt himself lucky for winning the bet against his cousins and uncles. Now he had the entire day to do what he wanted. Even to get into his dad's lab without being noticed or grounded. Unexpectedly his thinking was disrupted by a swift blast that made him stumbled as the room shook crazily and his chargeball game console crashed on the floor. He moaned and skimmed his room skeptically. Then, he began to ventilate and whimper "No! I didn't save that! Why in the world is this happening to…? DAD??!!" After it, Wilbur run down the hallway and reached the lab door. He pushed it really hard to see if his dad was fine. And to add more burden to his eyes and lungs the room was covered in dark smoke and began coughing. He then started crawling trying to find his father. "Dad!!?? Can you hear me??!! Hello!!"

To his surprise another shouting voice was heard in the room "Wilbur! What are you doing in here son? I'm OK. Now step out of the room!"

Wilbur narrowed his eyes and retorted sarcastically "Oh geez dad, forgive to be your son and get worried after listening to such a welcoming blast coming from here! And for the record, you just smashed my chargeball game this time."

"Wilbur I'm not buying you another one!" Cornelius grabbed his head in astonishment after his retort pondering hard. Spending time with him in my youth hasn't been my best idea. If I knew how to handle this kid on this times and forget that I treated him as a...

Soon his entrancement was disrupted by a soft echo that got louder by every passing second "DAAAAAD!!!"

He sighed as he was back to reality. He passed his hand through his unruly blond hair and caught his broken lenses from the floor. "Nevermind... I'm fine."

"Carl I need another pair of glasses." The inventor taunted around him and a robotic hand picked his glasses from his hand, placing a new pair ready to use.

"Sure chief. Here you go. I remind you that contact lenses are also available and Franny will love those too."

"NO."

"But Cornelius..."

"I'm not wearing contact lenses."

Wilbur was still standing annoyed by the conversation "DAD.". He was ignored while the other two were discussing on the subject "I'm just saying that if Franny pleaded you a couple of times to wear them it wouldn't harm you right?"

"i don't like the idea of putting something that close to my eyes."

"You can purchase permanent ones for..."

"CARL!! STOP IT! No. And if Franny told you to convince me otherwise. The answer is obvious to you in this instant."

"Chief I was only trying to..."

Wilbur had lost his patience and did what any pissed kid would. "Excuse me. I'm still here!! And this argument is ridiculous"

Now it was Carl's turn to blink as well as Cornelius. For an instant they were oblivious to the fact they were being heard. They rolled their eyes and didn't comment anything again regaining a peaceful silence in the middle of the smoke in the observatory. Wilbur rested uneasy and over ventilated his frustration without thinking...as usual. "Geez people. Grow up. Carl stop bugging dad to wear contact lenses. He doesn't need a date as I know so far and besides he's married already and we don't need any jealousy drama from my dear mother again." Wilbur covered his mouth gasping.

Carl popped his eyes and looked at his boss only to listen a warning in a low whisper from him "Don't even go there."

Even that Carl and Wilbur weren't in the same place to watch each other, they both gulped at the sound of Cornelius gritted teeth.

"Carl please get Wilbur out of here before he gets really hurt."

Wilbur blinked twice "Hey! What were you doing and why can't I stay? "

Carl moaned in front of Wilbur "Hey there little buddy. As you just noticed we just had a little explosion. We were testing a shield, but we did a wrong calculation with the simulation. It wasn't supposed to be this big. Happy now?"

Wilbur eyed suspiciously at Carl" How do I know that you are not lying to me? What were you really doing?"

Cornelius walked towards both of them and heard the rest of the family outside calling his name. "Wilbur. Is nothing. Now don't touch anything till I get back and talk with your mom. Ok, let me rephrase the whole thing... Carl watch out for Wilbur and open the windows to get the smoke out. I'll go find something to drink in the kitchen. Then I'll be back."

Curiosity got the best of Carl and couldn't resist to tap his boss on the shoulder and asked him in a very soft voice "What about the lenses incident? Why I don't know it as Wilbur?" Cornelius eyed him warily and Carl flinched "Ok.. Maybe some other time?" The inventor snorted and walked away talking "Remember. Just open the windows. And CARL, watch for Wilbur…"

Even if Carl was a robot, he pouted knowing that Wilbur always got in trouble "Wilbur. Please this time listen to me and DON'T touch anything."

Wilbur smirked "Silly,silly robot. What can possibly go wrong?" the raven haired opened the windows and the lab got back to normal in a couple of minutes. He began dazing the room while Carl moaned on his luck "Why me?! Why me?!"

Wilbur kept walking and a small artifact caught his eye in an instant. It was apparently a remote control that included a touch panel menu. The front of the artifact had a small inscription "iTalk 3000 1A"

"What is this Carl?"

"Nothing Wilbur just put it there"

"Oh come on." The curious boy pressed the button and a screen showed up in the air. "Woah! Look at this. People mode? What is that supposed to mean?" Wilbur kept messing with the control till he went to different menus called "Animal Mode" and "X Mode". He kept going through a large creature menu till he reached the birds' section and finally found a pigeon image loaded. "Hey I found a pigeon in here. Is this some kind of encyclopedia or something like that?".

Carl was exasperated at this point and tried to grab the invention from his curious friend immediately "Give me that!"

Wilbur wasn't giving up and kept the control tight in his hand and the robot still managed to fight over it.

"Give it to me Wilbur!"

"No. I want to know what is it!!"

"You know, there are other things more fascinating that this!"

"No there aren't. If there is one I would give this away! So just spill it"

"Yes they are. Like your father's extreme reluctance of not using contact lenses for starters-"

"Oh. You don't wanna know…" Wilbur shrunk his shoulders dramatically for emphasis.

"Was it THAT bad?" Carl asked as he maintained his grip on the remote device as Wilbur.

Wilbur knew that he could get into a very big problem, but he wanted to test the gadget no matter what was the cost. "Ok. But If I tell you would you give me this ITalky thing?"

Carl eyed him cautiously "No… Is that good enough for you?"

Wilbur didn't give up hope changing Carl's mind so he began the story he wasn't suppose to reveal "Fine I'll tell you! I went to visit Lewis. Mom saw me that time too … She told dad the idea about the lenses and I ended convincing him to use them if she wanted to."

Carl struggled with the boy wondering how he had so much strength to keep pulling the artifact "Oh that's great. But I'm not letting go!!!"

"Oh yes you would when you hear this piece of information I've got!"

"No! Wilbur! Give it back!"

"Lewis was the bomb and girls were over him but everything came out of hand…"

"I'm not listening!!! La la la la. Give me that remote now!"

"And then one day one girl came out from nowhere while I was having ice cream with mom and dad…"

"I'm still not listening!!! Give me THAT!!!"

"AND SHE KISSED HIM IN FRONT OF MOM AND ME!!!"

The boy's game play worked as planned. Carl was frozen. Without knowing he stopped pulling and met the floor dumbfounded.

"AHHH!!" without warning Wilbur had initiated the iTalk sequence and a red flash light reached him. As he panicked he didn't see when he stumbled with Carl's leg making his butt crash directly to the remote control.

Carl had wide eyes again "Oh no. I'm dead!! "

Wilbur just blinked and picked the invention and begin thinking that it wouldn't be that bad and that he'll try to find the blueprints. At least that's what he thought telling but instead other words were heard in the room

"Coo coo coo cooo coo."

Wilbur put his hands over his mouth as Carl pointed nervously at him.

"Oh God. This is just great! You are talking like a pigeon!!!"

Carl calm down Wilbur thought staring at him "Coo coo!". Then he began ventilating again in his mind with frustration. Awesome! Dad just grounded me a week ago and now he'll ground me again. His hands were up in the air and weird sounds still came from him "Coo coo cooo!! Coocoo cooo cooo!"

Wilbur tried talking again but it was useless. Only coo's were heard and Carl didn't understand anything he was saying. The raven hair boy soon took the smashed device with him and dashed over to his room and locked it passing through the hall leaving a stunned Carl behind in the lab. He panted and walked in circles annoyed trying to figure out where to hide the gizmo he broke and put it in the middle of his dirty clothes.

Now he was in big trouble for breaking another of Cornelius' inventions and he had been warned last week that if he did it again he wasn't getting permission to see Lewis during spring break. The memory made the future boy flinch in concern.

Flashback

Franny rose up from the shattered furniture in the living room. Her perfect combed hair was now a mess and she had painting with glue stuck in her dress. Her eyes had daggers that even Cornelius was nervous and made he remain quiet. The woman with full fury in her own face reflected bellowed suddenly to a boy with black raven hair and cowlick who unfortunately was also sitting on the floor with glue in his hair. "Young man I remind you that if you mess up with any of your father's inventions you're not only going to stay cleaning the lab and our house! Next time you won't have any permission to see Lewis in spring break!"

Wilbur cringed at the thought of not seeing Lewis after promising him to be in there to have the best time of the world so he retorted without thinking "But mom, you realize you're banning me to see dad after I promised that I…"

" I don't care! You've gone too far this time messing with my poor living room and the music room and the kitchen and the lab without forgetting the garage, the garden…"

Wilbur pouted "Mom I get it! But you don't understand. You can't just tell me that I can't see Lewis! Is not fair!"

Cornelius kept his gaze wondering around the messy room and saw Wilbur with the corner of his eye and took a look at Franny.

He tried to calm down the woman's fury putting a hand on her sticky shoulder "Fran, honey"

Franny scowled at him and in a blink of an eye snapped more anger "Oh no. Why aren't you saying anything at all?! You see how your son can be bringing this mansion to pieces and you'll remain calm spoiling him and rewarding him by seeing Lewis any time of the year?!"

Cornelius stepped back and groaned in frustration "Honey. I'm Lewis if you don't remember and.."

"You are spoiling Wilbur!"

"Fran, you told him his punishment already. I think it's enough. I'll fix this and Wilbur will clean the rest."

Wilbur gulped when his dad spoke. He wasn't the kind of parent who let fury take the best of him. Either way he felt guilty for bringing up an argument. He knew Cornelius was not happy with his careless attitude so he tried to apologize.

"Dad?" Cornelius turned around to face Wilbur's gloomy features. He was scratching his head and looking at the floor without making eye contact.

"Yes?"

"I'm sorry. Mom I-"

The inventor sighed and touched his unruly hair with his hand while Franny left the hideous scene without listening to her son.

"Son. You know this is a very awkward situation."

"You mean that mom can punish you and me at the same time?"

The father of the future blinked and looked back at his son cheerless eyes for the first time and stifled a laugh "If you put it that way. Yes. Wilbur, I mean it too. If you do it again there's no more time travel for months."

"But Dad! I already told you…I mean… Lewis that I was going for spring break! You know you're eerily punishing yourself too?"

The blond man smiled heartedly and took his glasses off to clean them while he answered back "Lewis will understand. After all I'm him. Besides till this day you always drag him into troubles with your own mother."

Wilbur kept his mouth hanging open "Dad, that was so weird."

"And you tell me that after we first met in the science fair? Really you don't know how hard this can be."

"I'm sorry…Le-…Dad"

Cornelius put his lenses on again and patted his son's shoulder "Ok. No more whining. Time to clean this mess…"

"Yes. I promise I won't hotwire anything!"

Cornelius chuckled at the statement facing that the truth could be far from his son's promise and the soon started to put things back in order for the rest of the afternoon and evening.

End of flashback

Wilbur's mind began racing to make up an excuse for not talking to his family until he was able to speak like people again. Soon and idea popped to his head and he grinned as he snatched his fingers together in the air. He even jumped full of joy. There's only one way I can get away with this he thought. And with entire determination he went into the hall spying every corner and walked carefully noticing his old robot friend still moaning in terror. When he caught a glimpse at Wilbur he gasped and pointed to his back as the boy watched him puzzled. He shrugged the hint off and started thinking how to explain his brilliant plan to his robot buddy. Suddenly his ideas were interrupted when a hand patted his shoulder.

Wilbur winced in realization and his eyes popped out in awe.

"Hey Wilbur. Glad to see you helped Carl with the smoke around here." It was Cornelius. So that's why Carl looked like a frightened monkey. Cool. I'm doomed. Unless I…
