The Claw!!
A/N: This is my first fic that is NOT a LOTR fic (I'm kinda obsessed with LOTR), so please be kind if you choose to R&R! I made it up while visiting my grandmother, who lives 5 blocks from an amusement park.
Lisa and Bart couldn't help cheering with all the rest as they ran out of Springfield Elemenatry's front doors. They were free, free for an entire glorious summer!
"Down with homework!" shouted Bart, now that he was free from Skinner's thumb-sucking clutches.
"Hey, Bart!" shouted Millhouse, running up to them. "Did you hear? Springfield is opening an amusement park!"
"Cool!" said Lisa.
"Way cool!" said Bart. "When does it open?"
"This afternoon!" Millhouse replied. "Hurry!"
The three of them sped down the sidewalk, abandoning their backpacks as they went. They followed the insessant tide of recently-freed prisoners (school children) in the direction of Springfield pier.
"This is awesome!" Bart said fifteen minutes later, in the arcade. He was playing War of the Crusaders. "I'm battling a dozen empires at once...and winning!"
"Wow!" said Lisa. "I didn't know you had such a mental capacity." Bart shot her a dirty look and kept playing.
"Het, Lisa," Millhouse said shyly. "Uh...do you wanna go a squishy? I was thinking...we could share it under the boards!"
"No thanks, Millhouse," Lisa said, watching Bart come closer to victory every second.
"Then...do you wanna go on the ferris wheel together?"
"Not really."
"Get matching temorary tatoos?"
"No."
"Have a licorish kiss?"
"NO!" Lisa cried. "Leave me alone Millhouse!"
"S...sorry Lisa," Millhouse said, and wandered off, searching for somewhere to mourn. On his way out the arcade, Nelson Muntz looked up from the game he was playing, and pointed at Millhouse.
"Ha-ha!" he said.
"What's up with Millhouse?" asked Bart, deftly defeating the last empire in War of the Crusaders.
"Oh...nothing," Lisa said, feeling a little guilty for exploding at Millhouse like that.
Bart and Lisa got home at 9:30 that night.
"Where have you two been?" Marge asked angrily. "We've been worried sick!"
"We?" said Homer. He was sitting in his usual ass groove on the couch, watching tv. As usual. Marge frowned.
"Sorry, Mom," Bart said. "But there's a new amusement park in town, and we had to check it out! It was so much fun! I beat War of the Crusaders ten times in a row!"
"And I won 1,000 points in speed ball!" exclaimed Lisa.
"And I got cotton candy!" said Bart.
"And I broke Millhouse's heart again!"
"Well, it sounds like you had quite an exciting afternoon," Marge said. "Now up to bed, both of you!"
Bart and Lisa ran upstairs, celebrating getting off the hook so easily. Ten minutes later, Homer looked up from the tv.
"Wait a minute!" he said. "There's an amusement park in town and I didn't know about it?"
The next day, Homer and the kids were up bright and early to go to the Springfield Amusement Park.
"Just try not to get arrested!" Marge called out the door as they drove away.
The day they had was one of the best of their lives. Maggie loved all the sights and sounds, Bart beat War of the Crusaders andother ten times, Lisa got rescued at the pool by a macho lifeguard, and Homer....well, we won't go into details.
That evening, they came home full of sugar, bubbling over with excitment, and just in time for dinner. Dinner was not one of the most pleasent experiences, since they were all too full of candy to eat Marge's delicious pizza.
That night, just before turning off the light to sleep, Homer remembered something.
"Oh, yeah, Marge, I forgot to tell you," he said. "The kids loved the park so much that I got a job there."
"What?!" Marge cried. "You got a job at the amusement park?"
"I knew you'd be pleased!" Homer said, leaning over to kiss her.
"But what about your job at the nuclear power plant?" Marge asked.
"I dunno," Homer said. "G'night!" He rolled over and turned off the light, and soon his snored reverberated throughout the room. Marge lay awake for a long time.
If you like it, please review, and I'll consider putting the rest up. I'll probably put the rest up anyway, even if everyone thinks it sux.
