The Pixie Stick Incident
Warning: The following story is not for diabetics. Or those with no sense of humor.
Today was beautiful. Sundays always were. Sunday was the day everyone and everything took a break to rest and relax, even more so than Saturday. Even Keyblade Wielders needed a break from training, and Eraqus acknowledged that. The first time he told his three young apprentices about not training for a whole day, every week, they were shocked.
'Now look were it got me.' Eraqus sighed.
The next morning after Sunday was brutal for every one. 'I practically have to drag Ventus out of bed.' At least with Terra and Aqua all he had to do was knock on their doors to wake them. With Ventus it took a whole symphony.
'I don't understand why a boy so full of life and energy would rather just lay in bed all Monday morning, than to train for what will possibly be the most important purpose of his life!' Eraqus mentally shaked his head. "Good thing it's still Sunday." he mumbled. Eraqus got up and prepared to look at the stack of reports on his desk, all about the current situations regarding the worlds.
Aqua sighed contently as she relaxed on her bed, enjoying a particularly interesting book. One of her favorites, it was a manual for how to execute the Magic Hour ability, without the missing limbs, or otherwise unwanted *Ahem* side-effects.
Terra, being the young man he is, was doing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. AND. IT. FELT. GREAT. He didn't count sitting under a tree sleeping as "doing something."
Poor Ventus was bored out of his mind. Without something fast or interesting to keep his attention, he easily got bored. With Aqua in her room doing lord knows what, and Terra being in his usual 'mood', Ven started fiddling with his armor. He saw a patch of red underneath a plate on his shoulder.
"Huh?" Ven cocked his head trying to get a better look at it. "Whats this..." Ven reached underneath his shoulder plate to grab the object. His fingers barely brushed against it.
"Just a little more..." Ven strained to get a firm grasp on it, and with his middle and pointer finger, managed to grab it and yank it out. As he did he realized that he could have just taken his shoulder armor off, then pull it out, but it didn't matter now. He got his prize.
"Aha!" "Its a... pixie stick?" Ven stared at the cylinder of sugary goodness cheerfully contained in the bright red paper. Venus looked up, the clouds of flashback rolling in...
Flashback-Halloween Night
"Terra, why can't I have just ONE piece of candy?" Ventus was on his knees begging the older male.
"Because, Master told me not to, and according to Master Eraqus if you had even a pixie stick, it would spell doom for all of us!" "Although, I don't really know why."
Ventus blinked. Not ready to give up on the sugary sweetness, Ventus begged harder. "PLEASE?"
Terra threw up his arms. "Fine, here have ONE pixie stick, but if anyone asks-"
Ventus had already swallowed the entire pixie stick. Ven remembered feeling full of immense energy.
"Ven, don't choke on it!"
Terra moved to help the boy, but was pushed back by the blonde.
"VEN, NO!"
Ven had ripped open three more pieces of candy and ate them...
Present Day
'Weird, I don't remember what happened after that.' Ven thought with his hands behind his head. He tried retracing his steps.
'Let's see... I put on my costume, went trick or treating, came home to have most of my candy put away because Master didn't want to spoil my dinner, after dinner I begged Terra for candy, got a piece, then ate even more... And then, the next morning, I only remember giving Aqua the lumpy sack to give to Terra.'
"Darn, why don't I remember?" Ventus sighed. In defeat, Ven sat on his bed, only to see the pixie stick he had gotten from earlier. Ven stared at it.
Deciding to eat it, he carefully opened the top of the wrapper with a small *rip*.
"What's the worst that could happen?" Ven chuckled before pouring the candy into his mouth.
Terra woke up violently. 'Something is very, very, VERY wrong.' Terra stood up trying to think what is could be.
'Did I forget someones birthday?' No, he had made sure of that.
'Maybe Aqua is about to try another crazy spell combo again...' He doubted that, because he was pretty sure she learned her lesson after trying to combine Triple Firaga with Fission Firaga. Terra shuddered. 'New thought, new thought...'
Terra's eyes widened. 'OH NO.' Terra slapped his forehead for his stupidity.
'I FORGOT TO HIDE MY STASH.' Oh, the things that would go wrong if his stash ended up in the wrong hands. Terra broke into a sprint as he charged in the front door of the castle.
Aqua set down her book. She had moved into kitchen by then, hungry for something sweet.
She checked the pantry. 'Nothing here... at least not anymore.' Aqua frowned as the memory of a Strike Raid nearly destroying the pantry sufaced.
Aqua checked the fridge. 'Nothing here eit-WAIT.' Aqua reached far back into the fridge and grabbed the LAST CUPCAKE.
"Yes!" Aqua looked to make sure no one was looking. Then she did her victory dance which looked like a cross between the funky chicken and Solja Boy.
Aqua set the cupcake down on the table, and went to get her book from the counter. But when she looked back the cupcake was gone...
"NOOOOOO!1!ONE!11!ELEVEN11!EXCLAMATION POINT!11!1!"
...is what I would have said, but Aqua took it better than that.
'Where's my cupcake?' Aqua looked everywhere, even back in the fridge in hopes that she was so excited by her victory dance that she didn't actually take the cupcake OUT of the fridge. But alas, the cupcake was not there.
'Awww... I really wanted that cupcake.' Aqua sighed.
'Oh well I guess I could ask Terra for-" Aqua was interrupted by the same cry of dismay that Darth Vader had when he found out Padme had died. Seriously. Go look it up on Youtube, its pretty pathetic sounding. Anyway, a minute after that, a voice immediately sounded from behind her.
"Aqua, we have a situation." Aqua turned to see it was none other than Terra with a grim look on his face.
"Terra, what do you mean?"
Terra winced. "Come take a look at what happened to my room."
Aqua grimaced. This wasn't going to be good.
A/N:What was originally a one-shot is now a two-shot! It didn't seem fair to dump 3k+ words on you with the tone trying to be funny. Plus I can use the change between chapters for dramatic effect! Dun-dun-dun Anyone catch the references to 'The Apple Incident'? I know I should update that one, but I couldn't get this one out of my head. And it ties in (Somewhat) to The Apple Incident, so there. Oh and I know the title is kinda lame, but I'm thinking about doing an "incident" for Aqua as well, so it might be like a mini-series. I dunno. Review and tell me what you think.
