A/N: Thank you to everyone who reviewed that last chapter. There has been quite a few people who have put this story on their alerts list and favorites. Thanks to them as well! I'm also sorry to say that this is going to be the last chapter for a little while. I'm taking a short break from this story to work on a few other things.

"Dude, I found some wicked awesome piercings on here," Epps called, waving Will over to the computer to show him. Will wasn't sure he wanted to see, but he walked over anyway. Sure enough, complete with pictures and descriptions, as if the pictures weren't enough, were some of the oddest piercings that he had ever seen.

"Please don't tell me that you're thinking of getting one," Will responded.

"Hell, no. Though the one with the guy piercing his…"

"Whoa! Do not want to know!" Will started to walk away, going back to his lunch. Annabelle was seated at the table, happily eating as well.

"Daddy, I want some orange juice!" she called. Will complied, pouring it for her.

"No, man, really! Look, I think it would be kind of…"

"Epps!" Will gestured to Annabelle, and then made a sign to be quiet.

"She doesn't know what I'm talking about!" Epps protested. None-the-less, he was quiet except for the tapping on the keyboard. A moment later, Epps was howling with laughter. "Lennox, oh, man, we have to do this!"

Will rolled his eyes. "You really need to stop surfing YouTube." He picked up Annabelle's empty plate and put it in the sink with his own to wash later.

"They have this event called the Gallon Challenge. You have to drink a gallon of milk in an hour and keep it down for another hour afterwards," Epps explained, pointing to the screen that depicted people throwing up milk everywhere.

"Hell, I could drink a gallon of chocolate milk without puking," Will answered confidently. "Stomach of steel. Remember that desert spider I ate once?"

Epps started to laugh as he remembered the incident in question. The spider had been the biggest one he had ever seen, and he had dared the captain to eat. Not able to back away from a challenge, Will had ate it and managed to keep the thing down. "Hey, you got a gallon of milk in the fridge? We can do this."

Will checked the fridge, pulling out the gallon of chocolate milk that Sarah had just bought for Annabelle. "We got this, and we got a half gallon of regular whole milk."

"Well, you get the chocolate, Mr. Stomach of Steel," Epps replied, taking the half gallon from Will's hand. "Should we get like a garbage can ready or something?"

Will snorted. "I'm not going to need one. This is going to be easy. I bet people who did that challenge before haven't been in the army."

Looking at each other challengingly, they began to drink.

Twenty Minutes Later…

"How are you feeling?" Epps asked, taking another small swallow. The milk was starting to taste bad after having this much and a little heavy like glue. This had been a bad idea. Will was sitting across the table from him, looking equally as grossed out. He managed a response though.

"This is easy. I knew it would be. I can't believe people can't do this…"

"Did you make sure Annabelle was taping this correctly?" Epps questioned, looking toward the little girl holding the camera. They had bribed her to get her to tape this, since it was going to be a successful effort.

"Yeah, I set it all up for her. She just has to hold it and…" Will trailed off, swallowing hard for a moment. Epps felt his own stomach turn nauseously. This had been a really bad idea.

Both Will and Epps bolted for the bathroom as the milk began to make a violent comeback. They were both hurling their guts up in the toilet as Annabelle followed them, still filming.

"Oh god, I hate milk," Will groaned as he pushed himself away from the toilet momentarily.

Sarah came inside the house, dirty from gardening and feeling the effects of the hot day. She started to pour herself a glass of water when she noticed how quiet it was in the house. That was unusual when she had a small kid and two equally childish men around. Looking around, she noted that both the milk cartons were sitting, mostly empty on the kitchen table.

"Will? Annabelle?" she called, sounding worried. Who knew what kind of mess they were in now. Will stumbled out of the bathroom, looking a little worse for wear.

"Why is the milk all gone?" Sarah asked with a puzzled expression. She held up the cartons for emphasis. Seeing the cartons that empty only reinforced how much Will had drank. He turned green at the thought of it, quickly covered his mouth, and ran back for the bathroom.

"Will?" Sarah put the milk down and followed him. She came upon the sight of both her husband and his best friend kneeling on the floor of the bathroom while they were ruthlessly sick. She put her hands on her hips, putting two and two together.

"Wow, you guys are really smart," she commented. "I was going to feel bad for you until I realized what you did."

Annabelle pointed the camera in Sarah's direction. "Smile, Mommy!" she said, clearly not disturbed by what was going on. Sarah took the camera from her, turning it off with a sigh.

"Both of you can spend the rest of the day in here for all I care," Sarah stated as she left. "Because if you're that stupid, then you can pay the price." She didn't sound at all sympathetic.

She retreated back outside, this time taking Annabelle with her. The little girl had been influenced too much by Epps lately, in Sarah's opinion. Ironhide was sitting in truck form in the driveway. He must had been monitoring the situation in the house because he spoke up when she passed by him.

"Doesn't Captain Lennox realize that generally humans do not succeed when they attempt that challenge? It has been done, but it is not easy."

"I think you are forgetting that when Epps and Will are together, they do stupid things," Sarah answered. She paused for a moment, turning to face the truck. "Hey, Ironhide, do you want to do me a favor?"

"Perhaps."

"I want to get Epps out of the house for a little while and away from us. Want to help?"
