"I wanna watch!"
"Hey! Gimme that remote!"
"But I wanna watch!"
"Well, you can't! The boss gave me the remote! So give it back!" a boy with brown curly hair shouted. His black jacket lay on the ground, forgotten in the chase. As they ran around, a girl with long white hair and blank white eyes jumped down from the ceiling and snatched away the remote from the smaller of the boys, who tripped.
"Ow! Hey! Raven!"
"Thanks." The older boy skidded to a stop, panting. "Geez… I can't leave the station for a second."
The girl glared at him, shoving the remote into a pocket of her belt. "Why were you away from the station?"
The boy shrunk back. "Hey! I had it on alert! And I had to go to the bathroom! Not my fault if Joe tried to steal the remote again!"
"No, I didn't!" Joe said, picking himself up, nearly falling down again as the girl shifted her attention to him.
"You were supposed to be with your brothers to go fetch Danger Duck. Where is he?"
"Um…downstairs? Josh didn't say where they were taking him," Joe mumbled. "They told me to go bother Max!"
"Oh, great," Max groaned. "I'm stuck with you again?"
"You are, until Matoré or I say otherwise," Raven said, walking away. "There'll be no need for arguments." She took the remote out and threw it over her shoulder, and it nicked Max on his head.
"Ow." He glared at her retreating back, before plopping down into his swivelly chair.
"Argh…I'm gonna get it now. Thanks a freakin' lot, Joe!"
"You're welcome!" the child piped before climbing into another chair, curling up and preparing for a nap. Max rolled his eyes before picking up the remote from the floor.
"If I get in trouble, it's your fault," he muttered, pressing a few buttons on the remote. A few screens switched on, some showing people, one showing an old children's cartoon. A purple dinosaur was dancing around with a group of 21st century kids, singing about fire trucks.
"Max?"
"What?"
"I'm bored."
Max raised his hands in exasperation. "Go 'help' Raven or something!"
"But the last time I tried to help, we ended up blowing up the lab."
"Go play in the lab!"
"Raven says I can't."
"Why does a girl have to tell us what to do?"
"Maybe it's because she's been with the boss for so long?" suggested Joe.
"Whatever. This is so boring," Max moaned. "I wish something would-"
"-happen to Duck?"
Max sat straight up again. "That's brilliant! We could- wait…that wasn't you, Joe."
Joe pointed to a screen. "It was that lady Bunny!"
Oh, boy. Won't the boss like this, Max thought, pressing the record button for the second time that day. Won't he like this…

Does anyone recognize the purple dinosaur?
Barney is a dinosaur,
From our imaginations…
That's as far as I can remember without fading off into humming.
It's the boy from chapter two! I named him Max. Ironically enough, I modeled his looks after a Loonatic hater I know from school.
