"Professor, Professor."

Ratigan looked to his side and saw Lizzie running up to him, carrying Vincent in tow.

"Yes, Elizabeth?" he said as Fidget and the trio looked at the children curiously.

"I taught Vincent some tricks."

Ratigan's ears shot up, while Francis coughed. The others were trying not to smile.

"Elizabeth, Vincent isn't a dog. You can't teach him tricks."

"But I did, look!"

She put Vincent in a standing position, holding his hands.

"Sit."

He plopped on his bottom, giggling.

"Roll over."

Vincent rolled over on the floor, still smiling.

"Speak."

He garbled some words, making grabby words.

"Lay down."

Vincent lay back in the floor, looking up at the others. Lizzie looked at them with a smile.

"See?"

Ratigan looked mortified, while the others were trying not to laugh.

"Elizabeth." He said, kneeling down to her level, "Don't ever show this to Isabelle."

Lizzie frowned at that, but she nodded.

"Good, now take Vincent back to his room."

She nodded and took Vincent back to his room. When she left, a bunch of snickers came from his lackeys.

"Hey, boss." Tony said, "She might teach him to fetch next."

That earned bouts of laughter from them, except Ratigan who was staring at them sternly.

"Oh be quiet." He growled out, "You are not to repeat this to Isabelle, is that clear?"

"Our lips are sealed." Bill said, with the others nodding. When Ratigan walked away, they all looked at each other and they burst out laughing.

AN: This just popped into my mind one day and I just think it was too funny to pass up, lol! Poor Vincent, he has no idea what was going on. Ratigan is mortified and the men just find it hilarious.

Anyway, enjoy and comments are loved! I don't own GMD,
