I don't own TUC I do own the game and Sydney.
I'm soooo sorry! I know it's been forever, and I'm really sorry about that. High School started last week and I've got a load of homework already, but I have not forgotten about this story! It's just I have to be in a certain mood to write stuff like this, but I'm working on it! I've got most of the next chapter planned out so the next update should be sooner. No promises though. Enjoy!
Chapter 9
"Hazard would you rather say 'rawer, I'm a taco fear me!' every time someone greets you? Or…" Howard leaned over and whispered something into Hazard's ear.
Hazard turned a deeper shade of red because his sunburn was still healing, "How did you find out?" he whispered. Howard smiled smugly, "Fine, I'll say 'Rawer, I'm a taco. Fear me!' every time someone decides to greet me." Hazard pouted as he spun the bottle. He brightened when it landed on Sydney.
"Oh gosh, I'm scared now." Sydney laughed as Hazard thought.
"Would you rather charge one silver coin to get into the bathroom or go to the Overland and rob an old lady?"
"Stand in front of the bathroom and charge money duh! Besides I like old ladies. They sometimes give me free candy!" She said then spun the bottle, "Ares, would you rather ask Aurora out or drink 2 gallons of sour milk?"
The entire room grew still as Ares opened his mouth, "Aurora will you go out with me?" the entire groups heads swiveled around to look at Aurora.
"Yes!" she squealed as she flew over to Ares and wrapped her wings around him. Ares smiled a huge smile as he hugged her back just as enthusiastically.
"Well it's about time." Ripred said and flicked his tail, "You could smell that those two were attracted to each other from a mile away!"
Gregor laughed and Ripred shot him a look. "Ares picked up the bottle happily and spun it. Then as it stopped Ares put his game face back on, "Stellovet would you rather chant 'Free to pee' in front of the bathrooms after Sydney has started to collect money or use really bad pick-up lines to get a date?"
Stellovet glared at Ares, "I have a reputation to maintain you know." Ares glared back, "Fine, I'll chant 'Free to pee'." She said crossing her arms over her chest and pouting like Hazard. She then grabbed the bottle and spun it Ripred became her unlucky victim. "Ripred would you rather in the next council meeting renounce your bond with Luxa, bond with Gregor, have a fight with Gregor, and then return to Luxa or… get high off of sharpie?"
"What's sharpie?" he asked contemplating his options.
"It's a marker that you can get high off of." She replied still pouting.
"And how would you know this?" Howard asked his sister giving her the look.
"A kid from my class did it once." She said shrugging. Howard nodded still suspicious.
"How long have you exactly been planning this one dare?" Ripred asked.
"About since we started this game." She said smirking.
"Ahh well then I think I'll choose the first one. This is going to be interesting." He said flicking his tail again.
"Everyone off to bed!" said Luxa looking at the watch Sydney had given her. "We have another council meeting during late day."
"Why didn't I know about this?" Ripred whined.
"Oh? Did someone not tell you?" asked Luxa innocently.
"No, someone did not tell me." He said pointedly to Luxa. She just shrugged her shoulders, and the clan went off to bed.
On the way back to their room Ares asked Gregor, "When are we to put the plan into action?"
"Soon," Gregor replied, "really soon." Ares grinned evilly and they both fell asleep dreaming about tomorrow.
Hazard got up the next morning thinking of ways to get revenge on Howard for finding out about his secret. He was almost on his way to the dining hall and almost missed the Underland servant who greeted him, "Good morning Hazard." He said.
Hazard looked up into his face, "Rawer! I'm a taco! Fear me!" he yelled then ran into the dining hall. Once he entered he could see Gregor and Howard laughing at the table.
"Good morning Hazard." They said in unison grinning.
"Rawer! I'm a taco! Fear me!" Hazard yelled, and the dinning area became silent as Howard held his sides and part of the table to keep from falling over. Gregor was laughing so hard that he leaned back to far and fell off the bench which made both of them laugh even harder. Hazard's face became red and he ran to get in the short line for breakfast.
Sydney didn't even bother to go to breakfast. Instead she borrowed from her secret stash of Overland food that she had hidden from Lidia. Then she grabbed a pair of sunglasses, a long overcoat, and a wide rimed hat. She pulled her hair up into a ponytail, and put on her costume. Next she took a sack and went to the bathroom on the third floor. She leaned up against the wall and began to wait.
Soon a young girl no more than her own age approached. Sydney pushed off the wall and walked to the girl who was about to enter the bathroom. "New rules." She said making her New York accent even more pronounced than usual. "You gotta pay to use the facility. One silver coin." The girl sighed and dug into her pocket for the money then she dropped it into Sydney's bag and entered the bathroom.
Sydney smiled as she examined the money, but quickly put it away as her next victim came.
Stellovet got up not long after Sydney did and hurried to the Museum to find something big to write on. She found an old poster board that only had a few pencil marks on it. Then she dug out a marker and wrote 'FREE TO PEE' in huge letters. She examined her handy work, and left to go inspect the situation by the bathroom before adding her poster to the mix.
She found Sydney standing there with a bag about three quarters of the way full smiling smugly. Stellovet began to go into the bathroom then Sydney made her move. "New rules," she said with her accent peeking over her sunglasses, "you gotta pay if you wanna pee."
"How much?" Stellovet asked as an Underlander walked by.
"One silver coin." Sydney said shaking her bag of change.
"That's outrageous!" Stellovet yelled.
"Hey if you gotta go you gotta go, and you gotta pay."
"I don't think so." She said and stormed off. Once she reached the Museum she attached her poster board to a stake, and returned to the bathroom scene.
She started walking back and forth between the bathrooms chanting "Free to pee. Free to pee."
"Knock it off. You're bad for business." Sydney said glaring at Stellovet.
Stellovet ignored her and continued chanting.
