May the Best Pranker Win

Freeze Blade skated through the corridor with an ice trail following him.

"Must. Get. To. Kitchen. For. FOOD!" He panted.

Ever since Wash Buckler banned the team from all food because they never listened to him, of course, Freeze Blade was starving. And now he wasn't going to stand around while a delicious aroma lurked throughout the base.

Knight Light must be making something REALLY good! he thought as he skidded around a corner. He was approaching the kitchen when suddenly, he was tripped by a yellow, scaly tail.

"GOTCHA!" Rattle Shake exclaimed in triumph.

"HEY!" Freeze Blade said after he pulled himself to his paws. "THAT'S MY THING!"

"Not anymore kitty cat! You fell for the oldest trick in the book!"

Freeze Blade hissed, "Alright, then if you're so confident that you're a better pranker than me, THEN LET'S FIGHT FOR IT!"

"IT IS SO ON!"

"Operation Prank-everyone-else-really-well-to-earn-the-title-of- 'Best pranker is a go! But first, I have to see what Knight Light is making."

"Agreed."

And with that they slithered and skated off to the kitchen.

"Yes. what do you want?" Wash Buckler asked impatiently from the couch when they entered.

They were surprised to see that Knight Light wasn't in the kitchen.

"We smelled something cooking," Freeze Blade said.

"You're not allowed to eat until you lot respect me again. Don't you remember?" the water swapper said. "Oh, and about that smell. That's just my new thingy I bought that makes your house smell nice."

The cat and snake groaned in disappointment.

"NOW GO AWAY," Wash Buckler yelled.

Quickly, they exited the room.

"Well, now that that's out of the way-" Freeze Blade said.

"-Let's do some pranking," Rattle Shake finished for him, an evil tone to his voice.

"May the best pranker win," Freeze Blade said, shaking hands with the snake.

They broke off in different directions down the hall.

…

That night, Rattle Shake slithered into Knight Light's room silently. Most of the light trap master's room was occupied by the kitchen, since he loved baking so much. He quietly snuck over to where Knight Light's massive sword lay, and attempted to pick it up. Instead the weight of it was too much and there was a loud clank as the sword collapsed on the floor. Rattle Shake glanced warily at Knight Light, who was sleeping on the couch next to the kitchen, and the serpent realised he was starting to wake up due to the racket.

Rattle Shake quickly pulled out a very blunt butter knife and put it on the table where Knight Light's sword lay. Then, as silently as he could, he threw the sword out the window and slipped out of the room before Knight Light could see him. From outside the door, he heard Knight Light walking over to the table his sword used to be on, followed by out-of-control wailing.

"WHERE IS MY BEAUTIFUL SWORD?!" he cried loudly. "WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO CUT TOMATOES WITH NOW?!"

Rattle Shake chuckled quietly, then slithered up the hallway to his next victim.

Meanwhile, Freeze Blade slowed to a stop outside of Dr Krankcase's room.

This is gonna be so good! he thought to himself. He quietly crept into the room, closing the door behind him. He glanced around the room until his sights were set on the doctor's goo guns. He almost let out an evil laugh, but stopped himself.

He grabbed the guns and after doing some pretty awesome poses with them, made his way towards the unusually large tank of goo in the corner of the room. With a step ladder, he managed to reach into the tank. He opened the hatches in the guns where Krankcase refilled them will goo when they ran out. Then, he reached into the tank with a scooper, and scooped too much goo into the guns. Once he finished overloading them with goo, he lay the guns that were starting to vibrate rapidly back on the desk where he found them.

"Heh, heh," Freeze Blade snickered quietly and quite evilly. "Have fun with those, Doc."

When he realised that the overloaded guns were gonna blow at any second, he quietly rushed out of the room, making sure to close the door behind him.

Then he heard an extremely loud splatter, quickly followed by a startled cry.

"I CAN'T SEEEEE!"

Freeze Blade almost burst into laughter, but made sure that he stayed quiet, then he continued skating down the hallway.

Rattle Shake crept into Chompy Mage's room next. He couldn't decide what to do to him other than one thing. Sneakily but quickly, he grabbed the life sensei's wooden staff and broke it into multiple pieces. Then he snuck up to Chompy Mage who was fast asleep like most of the others. He grabbed the mage's trusty chompy puppet and replaced it with a clump of Freeze Blade's fur that he left around the corridors. He left the chompy puppet by the broken staff on the floor to make it look guilty.

Then he slipped out of the room towards King Pen's room.

Freeze Blade knew that he would regret this, but he had to do it - he would do anything to win this competition. And knowing Rattle Shake, the serpent wouldn't let him forget his victory if he won. So there he was, holding one end of his leader's perfectly groomed moustache in his hand and scissors in the other. After all, it was just hair, right? He closed the scissors down on the mermasquid's moustache. Not hair.

"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!" Wash Buckler screeched, but before he could see Freeze Blade, the cat had already rocketed out of the room.

The serpent thought King Pen was asleep, but apparently not.

At least he didn't see me Rattle Shake thought. It could have been worse. Then he disagreed with himself. For what happened that one night with King Pen, had scarred him dramatically for life. For he, Rattle Shake, was sat on by the penguin's butt feathers. He narrowly escaped the sensei's room before he saw him. He was just relieved that it was over, and he slithered through the halls to his final victim - Spy Rise.

Freeze Blade skidded to a stop in front of Spy Rise's lab. He rubbed his paws together evilly and was about to open the door, when he saw Rattle Shake stop beside him.

"You?" he said.

"What are you doing here Rattle Shake?" Freeze Blade said angrily. "He's mine!"

"Oh, please," Rattle Shake mocked. "The worst a kitty cat like you can do, is shed on the carpet!"

"I CUT HALF OF WASH BUCKLER'S MOUSTACHE OFF!" Freeze Blade hissed.

The snake's eyes widened in surprise for a second, then said, "OH YEAH? WELL I BROKE CHOMPY MAGE'S STAFF INTO TOO MANY PIECES TO COUNT!"

"I DEMOLISHED DR KRANKCASE'S ROOM WITH HIS OWN GOO!"

"I REPLACED KNIGHT LIGHT'S SWORD WITH A BUTTER KNIFE!"

The two went on bickering for minutes. Suddenly, the door to Spy Rise's lab opened. They paused, and stared into the edgy room, trying to figure out how the door opened. Then they saw two glowing, furious green eyes glaring down at them. Spy Rise dropped from the ceiling and pinned the two of them to the hard ground with the sharp, metal tips on his two front legs. He reached his arm towards them, threatening to shoot.

"You show up here again in the middle of the night, and I will turn you inside out," he said in the most edgy tone they have ever heard.

He let them go and they immediately dashed away. Spy Rise scowled, then left back into his lab, slamming the door behind him.

Freeze Blade and Rattle Shake lay cowering in the corner of the corridor, still recovering from the spyder's scare.

"S-so a draw, then?" Freeze Blade stammered.

"A d-draw it is."

The End.
