After frowning again, Sublimino followed his parents out of his home. ''About hypnotizing people together...''
He stopped walking after his father turned and scowled at him. ''Right. You're starving,'' Sublimino muttered. He continued to follow his relatives. Sublimino and his family eventually found themselves in a fast food restaurant.

''Two hamburgers and three fries with a large orange soda,'' Sublimino's father said to a woman after he approached a counter.

''One salad and a diet soda,'' Sublimino's mother said.

Sublimino grinned. ''Three hamburgers and four fries...'' he said before his mother faced him and frowned. He tilted his head to one side as she ordered for him.

''My son will be getting one hamburger and a salad with a diet soda.''

Sublimino began to scowl at his mother. ''Dad isn't eating salad!'' he exclaimed.

''It's your father's vacation.''

Sublimino's father parted with cash before he turned to his family. ''I'll wait here and bring food to you. Go find a table.''

Sublimino's mother frowned at her spouse. ''Like I said, it's your vacation. Our son should bring food to us.'' She saw a smile on Sublimino's father's face.

Sublimino continued to scowl. He viewed his mother kissing his father. His mouth opened as he stuck his tongue out.
''Moooom! Daaaad! I'm going to eat in a few minutes!''

The parents walked to a table. They sat across from one another.

The woman appeared with burgers, salads, etc.

Frowning, Sublimino took two trays and carried them to his parents. He placed them on the table. He returned to the counter and took the other tray. Sublimino eventually sat near his mother.

The father smiled as he ate a hamburger.

''About hypnotizing people...'' Sublimino said before his father glowered at him again.

''Eat your salad,'' the mother muttered.

''When are we going to hypnotize people?'' Sublimino asked.

''You're grounded for two weeks!'' the mother said with a scowl.

Sublimino gasped. ''Why?''

''You're being a brat.'' Sublimino's mother pointed a fork at the uneaten salad.

*It looks as though I will never get even with that Ben Tennyson brat. I guess I could battle him alone, but strength in numbers*
Sublimino thought with a frown. He trembled in anger. *I teamed up with most of Ben's other enemies earlier, but we were still defeated.*

Sublimino groaned after he focused on salad. His shoulders slumped before he took a bite and groaned again.

The End
