If you haven't read my previous story, TP KF: The Inside Story (I know there is meant to be a plus between TP and KF but it wouldn't show for some reason) then I suggest you do because this is a sequel to that. The previous story described an episode of Rugrats AGU through the eyes of Tommy and Kimi. This story, however, is an original story set shortly after the end of the final season of Rugrats AGU (season 5) and is written in third person. Honestly, I didn't think I'd write any further AGU fanfiction after the previous story. But here we are. I hope you enjoy it :)
I expect this whole story will be three chapters, the second being the longest and most intense. Enjoy the first chapter!
"Here it is!"
"Shhh, Dil, mum and dad will hear us!"
The two brothers were sat in their living room. It was about midnight and all the lights in the house were off, but the TV was on. With their parents in bed, the boys had snuck down to watch a horror movie they had secretly recorded.
Dil picked up the disk and put it in the DVD player. The boys held their breath as it whirred into life, closing it's disk draw. The title screen loaded on quiet volume. They listened upstairs for their parents: snoring. Breathing a sigh of relief the boys grinned at each other.
"I can't wait," squealed Dil.
The movie started and the two were engrossed. It was spooky at times, but they had to keep screams to a low volume, which was hard.
"This is so good," gushed Tommy after a few minutes.
"Know what'd make it even better?" asked Dil. "Tangy cheese Doritos, with sour cream dip!"
Dil produced both of those items. He opened the crisps, but had trouble with the dip. He pulled the lid as hard as he could, and finally it came off; but with too much force he lost control of the dip and it hit Tommy square in the face.
"Aww, gee, thanks Dil" Tommy moaned. "Now I gotta go cleanup."
He went to the kitchen and ran the tap. Water gushed out, which he splashed on his face. Looking up, he glanced out of the window, and in the moonlight he noticed a movement in his tree house. Tommy dropped the towel he was holding and shot back to the living room
"Dil!"
"Keep it down, T! What is it?"
"There's someone in our treehouse."
Dil's eyes widened, like two fried eggs. "Whoa. Are you sure?"
"Come take a look," said Tommy assertively. He led his brother into the kitchen, and they peered out. In the treehouse, sitting down, they could just make out a silhouette.
"Spooooookkky," commented Dil. "Well, I'm going back to the movie."
Tommy looked annoyed. "Aren't you gonna see who it is?"
"Not likely," said Dil. "What if it's an alien come to study us? I don't have time to be abducted, I have conspiracies to study."
"Well, I'm going to," asserted Tommy.
Dil was shocked. "T, are you mad? Seriously, what if they're dangerous?"
Tommy pondered. "I'll take a walkie talkie. You can have the other one. I'll call if there's trouble.
"Wouldn't it be easier just to phone the police?" muttered Dil.
"What, and get mum and dad involved, then they find out we stayed up late on a school night to watch the movie they specifically told us not to?" countered Tommy.
Dil looked stumped. "Well, you got me there, bro. Rather you than me in that treehouse though."
The boys found the walkie talkies, and a torch for Tommy, then Tommy put his shoes and a jumper and snuck out the back door as quietly as he could. He tiptoed across his garden. He could hear noises coming from the treehouse - it sounded almost like crying. Tommy reached the bottom of the ladder and slowly but silently climbed up. His intruder had not yet given indication that they knew someone was about the join them.
Tommy could feel his heart racing as he reached the top and stepped onto the platform. He nervously checked his pocket for the walkie talkie, reassuring himself that Dil was at the other end. The intruder was the other side of the wooden wall. Tommy gripped his torch and placed his finger on the button, ready to press. He took a deep breath and stepped around the corner.
"Who's there?" he growled.
"Aaahhh," screamed Kimi, shielding her eyes as a bright light shine in her face.
Tommy lowered the torch as he recognised his guest, but stood gawping at her. She sniffed, and looked anxious, awaiting his response.
"Kimi? What the...? What are you doing here?"
