Cafe Series
Chapter 10
The Project
"Alright!" Ethan said as he walked towards the group, "What's up, pup?!" he rhymed and set down a box on the table, "Hello, Ethan." Ash said, "Morning!" Lucas said, "Did you get the stuff for the project!?" "Absolutely!" Ethan responded, "Teach' is going to be so amazed with it!" "What are you guys talking about?" Leaf asked, quite annoyed at their behavior. "The project our Science teacher gave us!" Ethan told her and opened the box, revealing a large glass dome with a metal base, "Yep, she's going to love it as much as us!" Lucas laughed as he helped Ethan move it on top, "What is it?" Hilda asked, "You'll see.." Ethan said and nodded to Lucas who left the Cafe with a walkie talkie. "What is this for?" Barry asked, seeing a soldier outfit inside the box, "I have to wear that, stupid!" Ethan said as he started to put it on, "You are very confusing, comrades." Brendan grumbled, "Nonsense!" Ethan said as he placed a helmet on, "Lucas, you ready?" he spoke into his radio, "Roger that!" Lucas responded with a Sinnic (British) accent, then Ethan started to act very odd. "I need Air support!" he yelled from under a table, holding a fake assault rifle, "The enemy is advancing!" he continued and "fired" at some hypothetical enemies, "Blimey! There's a tactical Nuke incoming! It's over!" Lucas yelled with the same accent, and then in the glass dome, a huge light shone, and surely enough, a small explosion rocked the table it was on and a mushroom cloud appeared inside it. "ARGH!" Ethan yelled as he was "hit" by the explosion and collapsed, faking death...

"So you managed to make a tiny nuke explosion in a dome?!" Ash said in shock, "Yep!" Ethan said, "Pretty cool, no!?" Lucas added, "You just get some Smoke detectors and take out the radioactive-y stuff in there, then place it within a lead lined dome, like that one, and boom!" he said with much enthusiasm. "I'm not sure this is legal." Hilbert grumbled, "It might not, but it will get us a hundred!" Ethan chuckled, "I think you need to change it... You might get radiation poisoning!" Barry yelled, "You could die!" "Nonsense!" Lucas scoffed, "Silly Barry, there's no such thing as radiation!" Ethan chuckled, "That's just a lie that the scientists made up so we won't use nukes as much!" "Are you two some kind of idiots?!" Barry yelled, "No... We're daredevils." Ethan said, "We are the best, we are better than the rest! So if you don't think we can pass the test, you better return to yo momma's nest!" "Whoo!' Lucas cheered at Ethan's rap, "Ye-Yea!" the two said and gave a fist bump, leaving the rest with an anime sweatdrop. "Oh.. brother." Red grumbled, "Tell me about it." Ash added, "Shaddup..." Lucas grumbled, "We finally come up with something intelligent and you bring us down.. See Dawn, that's why I don't make very good decisions when you ask me to do something." he said, "So it was never because you did not pay attention and completely ignore my advice?" Dawn asked, "Ow man!" Ethan laughed, "You just got burned like a Bulbasaur against a Charizard, like a boiling pot of Grumpig lard!" he rapped oncemore, "Hey!" Lyra stood up, "You just reminded me of my English project! Can you help me with it?" "Sure thing Sweets! This task is up to Eths (pronounced: Ea-ths)!" Ethan told her, "Anything you need beautiful, intelligent.. Cause you know, I'm your helping gent." "Ugh." Lucas grumbled and did a gagging effect. "I need to make up a poem... Can you help me?" Lyra asked, "We are studying Romantic Dramas." "My specialty." Ethan chuckled, "As you will see..."

"Oh... But you light that through yonder window breaks, doth thou not know the lovely stakes?" Ethan said in a sophisticated voice, a polar opposite of his goofy street one, "Be they dangerous or benign, this love we two share is divine! From the Lord's own hand we take our blessing, the one that lonely men are missing!" he finished, only to meet a roar of applause from his friends, and Mr. Cafinne, who was standing in the side lines cleaning a table. "Too bad there was no one around to hear that." Lyra grumbled, seeing the Cafe was empty, for it was closed for a while, "I agree." Mr. Cafinne said, "Lad, you have quite a talent!" "Nah..." Ethan said and shook his hand, "Just humble man whose love knows no bounds, his saddening losts have become his cheerful founds." "You can stop that." Lucas grumbled, quite annoyed at his friend's words, "Be quiet!" Dawn said and smacked his arm, "Oi! Calm it!" Lucas yelled, "That hurt!" "You have no respect for the arts, do you?" Red said, "Oh.. As you would now art!" Lucas spat, "Sheesh, calm down man." Ethan told him, "Don't tell me to calm down.. Mr. Fancy-pants!" Lucas growled. "Oh? A mister Fancy-pants?!" Ethan grumbled, Is that how you want to play now?" "Hell yea.. I'll take your stupid rhymes and shove them right up ye old arse!" Lucas yelled, "Your idiotic rhymes remind me of a farce!" "At least you finally learned something in English class!" Ethan taunted, "The only way you made it through is with a 79, boy, what a pass!" he finished, Lucas grunted and stood up:
"Well Ethan, aren't you a good friend?
Is it gonna take a battle of rhymes to make you bend!?
Don't you know me pal, I'm Lucas!
I'll bomb you like pack of Teutonic Stukas!
Now dodge this battle like you did it with Lance,
I've seen Stantler's with a better escape prance,
so go and do your little stupid dance!
I'm the best at rhyming, so you best say good night!
You'll be on the floor, beaten by this Sinnite!"
Lucas finished with a cross in his arms, it was only natural for Ethan to respond to this threat:
"Now you wanna fight a rap battle with me?
I'm the Fast Rhyming Awesome MC!
The incredible, the handsome glorious Ethan,
now head back home Lucas, before you get a beatin'!
Now I know you are mad at me for charmin' my girl,
But the stunts you pull on Dawn, they make me want to hurl!
You're so full of crud, you sometimes let me down!
I'm afraid to go to school with you because you are a clown!
Now, seriously, don't turn that smile to a frown."
Lucas gnashed his teeth at Ethan's words, then turned to him:
"So you wanna mess with me chap?
Need I remind you all the times you had fallen into a trap!?
Never in 5 years had you payed for a pop!
You stole so much money from me I might call a cop!
You're cheap and selfish.
Smellier than rotten shellfish!
I'll crack your case like you cracked my Evil Kenival Toy,
Remeber, back when I was a young lad!?
Or did you tell me that to everyone, can't even keep a secret! Now that's sad!"
(Ethan Interrupts.. Sorry for not separating...)
"As I recall, you like to spill the berries too!
I remember you telling me about Red's accident in the zoo!
Now here I'm going to end this like Huttila!
Don't you remember when you nearly blabbed that Hilbert like Hilda!"
Ethan roared, only for all of them to fall into silence, "What?" Hilda mumbled and looked at Hilbert, who pulled down his cap in embarrassment and left abruptly.

"You two are such jerks." Lyra scolded, "I know.. Lucas, I thought I taught you better." Dawn added, "I'll talk to him." Red grumbled and left outside, where Hilbert was, "Hope you're happy with yourself." May added and shook her head.
I just want to say thanks to that Guest who reviewed, sorry about that three month delay... But this is for you. Alright guys, review! Also... Lucas vs Ethan...Who Won? Who's Next!? You should decide with a review.
