I Dare You

Chapter Two

"Jumpy Much?"


"Mine…? Oh man…that is something I so did not need to hear…"

Forcing one of the largest smiles onto my face, I actually managed to use my butt to crawl back a few inches before slowly getting to my feet, clutching at the flashlight like a lifeline. Unfortunately, bucket head…I mean…the Predator decided to rise at the same time, so now there is that uncomfortable silence, you know, right before…oh crap! Mr. Tall dark and shiny had reached out, his large clawed hand nearly grabbing my waist, but I jumped back at the last second, sucking in my tummy so fast it hurt. At that point, with my arms hovering in the air like a bad impression of the Wolf Man or a Zombie, I realized…I had a very, very, full bladder…hell of a time to need a bathroom…

The Predator clicked loudly and reached for me again and like a skipping record, I jumped back, arms still in the air, apparently, he did not see the humor in this situation… Growling low in his throat he took a giant step forwards, my brain went on vacation as my feet spun me around, taking off like the roadrunner, so with any hope the Predator would be the coyote…and fall off a cliff…or hit a low hanging branch, all he needs is the little sign…


After running like a madwoman towards the camp

My legs are leaded jelly

I am out of breath

In addition, I still have to wiz!


"God this is so not fair!" Gasping for breath, my lungs felt like they were on fire, legs ready to surrender to a heavy butt, twigs stinging my face as I ran and I need to pee really badly! "This is not fair, what the hell did I do to deserve this?! And why hasn't the Predator caught me yet? It's not like I'm Speedy Gonzales or anything…I bet I'm Slowpoke…without the gun!"

The heavy stomp of his feet behind me, urged my tired legs with a boast of adrenalin, loud clicking echoed in the woods, sounding speciously like laughing… "Oh that is so not right, he's playing with me! Bucket head could have grabbed me anytime he wanted!" That thought annoyed me to no end as I struggled to hop over a fallen tree, flashlight bobbing up and down, my bladder ready to burst with every step… A soft glow up ahead nearly made me squeal in delight as I spotted the electric lamp…but it looked strange…


After bursting in on our campsite

I find Lily had packed our stuff away in the car

Oh, that's why she sent me away

Lose one tent stake and you're marked for life...


"Lily, start the car!" My shrill scream and waving arms startled my sister as she slammed the trunk down, "What the hell are you talking…" Her eyes bulged when apparently she caught sight of what was behind me…

"Shit!" She did not even bother to give my panting ass a second look as she spun around so fast she did a ballerina twirl before running around the truck like a headless chicken, which by the way is a very disturbing sight… Digging my feet into the dusty brown dirt, I jumped in the air, twisting at the same time to face the oncoming Predator like a ninja, and tossing the flashlight like a throwing star…striking him with perfect aim in the only place that would honestly count… The Yautja's hands flew to his crouch as he toppled face first in the dirt, both legs drawn in tight to his chest, weird sounds like a horse being choked emerging from the mask.

I let a whoop of delight upon landing, never in my entire life had I managed to throw straight…my aim always curves to the left for whatever reason…and I can only hit a moving target… The roar of the engine stopped the start of a happy dance, reminding me that my sister was not one to delay in taking off on certain people... Darting over to the parked truck's passenger side, I yanked the door open and literally had to hop into the seat as Lily shoved the gas peddle into the floorboard…can we say impatient?

The snarl of tires over the dirt and the bumpy bouncing was not a comfort for my bladder as we sped off onto the trail, the neon headlights revealing the narrow line of dirt road…oh God I have to pee…


We made it safely out of the woods

Though Lily and I paled when we heard a weak roar

It was kind of high pitched if you get my meaning

We're on the freeway driving back home right now…


"You bitch! You were going to freaking leave me there!" Lily gave me a quick side-glance, a smile fighting to show on her faintly freckled face, "Yeah, but you have a little bit of sista in you, so you moved quick enough." My right eye twitched, "You know not all stereotypes are true…" She snorted, "If a brother can dodge a bullet then you can run your happy go lucky ass faster then a racecar with the right motivation." Her tone of voice made me bite my lip and the inside of my cheeks as I struggled not to laugh aloud, "my sister…the comedian…"

Leaning against the soft comfortable seat, I took a deep breath enjoying the new car smell, before looking out the window, staring at the cloudless night sky with the full moon hanging low and heavy, millions of bright stars winking down from the heavens. Peering at the dark road I watched as some ancient rusty car came rolling beside us, with a little boy, maybe six or seven years old staring up at the tall truck through his back passenger window. The kid was adorable, curly black hair, big blue eyes, evil smile…the brat began making ridicules faces, sticking his tongue out and lifting up his stubby nose, eww boogers!

I was above doing such childish things…oh, again never mind, sticking my own tongue out, I started making the ugliest looks I could come up with, doing everything in the book to outwit the monster. This went on for a few minutes before the yellow flashing of a turn signal blinked on and off, its flickering light illuminating the corner of the road briefly. However, I remained the champion of face making, because the kid finally gave up from laughing too hard and that his car was taking the next turn…thus ending our game. Before I lost sight of the rusty piece of junk, the runt waved happily, disappearing around the winding road bend that went up the hill.

Resuming my former position, I felt the weight of stare…flicking my gaze to the left I frowned, "What?" Lily shook her black haired head, "And here I thought I was petty…" I mimicked her voice with a whiney sound, sneering halfheartedly, "You're just mad because I can still make faces and you can't so…" I stuck my tongue out at her and she snorted once again, "Hey Luma look!" Automatically my head turned to look at Lily…and to see her flash me a pale boob…that was her way of saying fuck you…and no one ever caught her doing it either…she was the amazing flash…

"No bra this week?" I had sullenly turned back to facing the front window, "Nope, I like'a the jiggly!" That one comment always made me laugh; I should have never shown her the cartoon, Foamy the Squirrel… Groaning in pain, I squeezed my legs tighter together, "Can't you go any faster? I'm going to pee on the new seat coverings!" Lily gave me a full look of concern, mostly concerned about the new gray coverings actually… "Five more minutes and we're home…" I whimpered and hopped in place, shifting leg from leg to hold back the ready-to-burst dam.

Taking a deep breath, I forced myself to watch the night sky, and nearly forgot how to breathe…along with almost peeing on myself, for no more then a few seconds…it looked like there was a dark shape above us… Leaning forward to catch another glimpse of that strange spaceship nose, like the one from AVP, I grunted as the belt constricted across my tummy, informing me that if I kept going, I was going to go pop! "Earth to Luma, come in Luma, what are you looking at, over." Mumbling beneath my breath, I let out a shaky laugh, "Let's never talk about Predators again okay?" Lily glanced at me, an honestly serious look on her face, "agreed…"


We're finally back home

My sister is a top model

I'm living with her and two other top models in a penthouse near an ocean

Also, I'm their clothing designer


Moaning in absolute bliss, I had tears falling from my hazel eyes as I released Niagara Falls, the occasional toot making me chuckle; everyone farts and has to take a crap, no need to be ashamed. Wiping myself dry and rising from the toilet, I flushed the yellow misery down the drain, humming a Nine Inch Nails song while I washed my hands. Walking out of the giant bathroom, I turned a corner and went over to a ground vent, standing over it, letting the baggy t-shirt bellow like a parachute, its bold number zero and tiny holes making me smile. Pleasantly cooled off now I partially skipped the rest of the way to our huge leather couch, passing the rarely used kitchen, the black carpet like spongy moss beneath my bare feet.

"Dive bomb!" I did a belly flop on the dark brown cushions, sighing happily then grunting as I wiggled the black shirt back down, the bare skin of my legs sticking to the leather like it was flypaper…at least I was wearing panties. Closing my eyes, I began to drift off, only to have my head shoot up whenever the smallest sound invaded the peace of silence. Looking around with a terrible paranoia, I stared over each detail of the house, gazing out the tall door window that lead to the ocean, and that I know is locked, I peered behind the couch, nothing other then a vent, peeking over the armrests I looked at the open doors of the four rooms far across from me.

Still nothing to see in the rooms beyond and I am to lazy to move, "Jumpy much…?" Plopping back down, I began to regret the decision of not going with Vela, Connie and Lily, when those three were together they did not know the meaning of rest so never mind… Though being alone in a massive house after saying hi to a real Predator is not a very good thing for rambled nerves…

"So sad, to bad, don't cry over split milk and what not…" After mumbling that I pillowed my head against the curve of my arm, allowing the other to play with some carpeting, and it was probably this that lulled me to sleep, just a mindless task fingering the soft bushy…too sleepy to continue…eh.


I've been asleep for maybe an hour or a few seconds

I'm very comfortable

A very heavy sleeper

And having a wonderful dream


Shifting against the broad hands that ran over my back, I made little noises and coos of delight when they found a sensitive spot at the nape of my neck, a thumb brushing over the fine hairs, then continuing down the curve of my spine. I arched my back like a cat after a good scratch, stretching in my sleep, before turning my head to face the back of the couch, those hands felt great… Opening unseeing eyes briefly, I lifted my head up, peering right at the naked face a Predator, its mandibles twitching; I just smiled at it like a total dope…

Dropping my head back down, I was sorry those nice hands had stopped playing with…whoa…well someone is touché feely…said hands were grasping my bottom… Perhaps it was the light touch of sharp nails against my underwear that made me…realize whom those talented hands belonged to…"Predator!"

My eyes flew open, and I managed to roll over, but I did not escape as originally planed…no instead, he picked me up from the couch and slung my ass over his mountain called a shoulder…and placed a hand over my butt… "Put me down lobster face!" I tugged on his dreadlocks…which I will say was rather stupid on my part…the hand that was gripping my bum disappeared for a split second…then swatted me firmly…oh that made me squawk like a shaved bird… Dignity took a hike as I clamped a free hand over my stinging backside, bucket head did not protest, for his hand was now on my knees, holding me in place as we walked towards the apparently broken door window…well he walked I should say…

"What did I do to deserve this…?"
