Life in Parappa Town Chapter 10: Messy Times, Part 2, a parappa the rapper fanfic

Parappa and PJ set up their lemonade stand in front of the rapper's house as they plan to make enough money to buy Sunny new school stuff.

"Okay PJ. Let's see if we have everything we need." Parappa pulls out a little checklist from out of his pocket.

"Lemonade stand?"

"Uhhhhh…check."

"Lemonade?"

"Right here!"

PJ puts a gallon of store bought lemonade on top of the lemonade stand counter.

"PJ! We can't use that!" Parappa shouts.

"Why not?" The bear raises his eyebrow.

"Because lemonade stands need to use real lemons! We gotta make it fresh!" Parappa explains to the lethargic teddy bear.

"Go down to the store and get some lemons! Sunny needs this man!" The young rapper pleads his friend. PJ nods his head and walks down to the grocery store down town.

...

About an hour passes as Parappa sits at the stand, looking bored while staring at a bird that landed next to him.

"So…uh…got any milk in ya?"

At that moment, the teddy bear returns from the grocery store.

"Hey Parappa I'm back." He simply utters.

"Oh finally! You got the lemons?" Parappa sits up as PJ puts the bag on the stand.

"Yep, apparently these aren't ripe yet though." PJ empties the bag, revealing a green colored fruit.

"…PJ…those are limes." Parappa squints his eyes at the silly bear.

"No, they're green lemons." He responds.

The dog inhales through his nose sharply right before exhaling slowly.

"You know what…whatever. Let's just make the lem-I mean…Limeade." Parappa says in partial defeat as he grabs a big knife.

"Okay, so we're gonna need to juice these things, but first we gotta cut'em up in half." Parappa explains as he attempts to cut into one of the limes.

He can't seem to make a cut, no matter how hard he tries. He starts to grunt as he puts more force behind the knife as he tries to penetrate the outer layer of the bitter fruit.

"Uh…Parappa…you're gonna-"

"Oh c'mon! Just freaking cut!" Parappa shouts as he starts to get angry.

He tries to slam the knife down on the lime, to no avail.

PJ watches with unease as Parappa gets more and more angry with the limes.

Suddenly, the knife slips off the limes as Parappa went to try to chop it and it ends up slicing his hand instead. Both boys stand with their eyes wide as blood comes out of the wound. All the birds in the surrounding trees fly off as Parappa lets out an ear piercing scream.

...

Parappa rubs his bandaged hand as he and PJ stand in the park.

"Alright…so the lemon- I mean limeade stand didn't work out too well, so I guess we'll have to move on to something else." Parappa explains in a tired, but still determined expression.

"Like what?" PJ asks.

"Well, you see, I saw a cartoon earlier about a monkey that danced around for coins. So we're gonna do that." The pupper explains.

"You're taking advice from a cartoon?" PJ asks with a tone of judgement.

"Hey, cartoon's have valuable life lessons to them!" Parappa frowns at PJ.

"Now since I forgot to let Boxxy out of the sock drawer, we're gonna have to dance to the sounds of nature." Parappa stretches his legs as he prepares to dance.

"The only nature I hear are the sound to those two squirrels over there having se-"

"Enough time for talking PJ! We gotta dance!" Parappa says as he starts to do a little dance, spinning around while wiggling his arms.

PJ starts to dance too as he moves his hips in a circular motion.

Everyone nearby stops to stare at these two clearly insane kids dancing to no music.

"It's working PJ! It's working!" Parappa smiles as he thrusts his hips back and forth.

PJ continues to wiggle his body, clearly feeling uncomfortable with this as people give them strange looks as they walk away.

"It's!…It's…not working…" Parappa pouts as he stops dancing.

PJ stops as he gasps for breath, as he isn't very fit enough to do much physical exercise.

"Well PJ…I guess it's time for plan C."

...

"Can we have some money please?" Parappa begs a passerby as he holds out a little cup.

"Please? Wh-what about you? Can you- no, okay…how about you sir? Sir?" Parappa begs to everyone who walks by, all of which don't even look at Parappa.

"Oh PJ…this is…this is all useless…I can't even make it up to Sunny for me ruining her things…she'll never love me…" Parappa sniffles as PJ puts his hand on the dog's shoulder.

"I'm sorry Parappa…maybe we can beg some more if you like?" PJ tries to comfort the pup.

"Oh what's the point?! I might as well give up begging too." Parappa frowns at himself.

"NO NO NO!"

A loud, gruff voice shouts out.

Parappa and PJ look around with scared looks on their faces.

"Who…who said that?" Parappa shakes as he looks around with a worried expression.

"I did!"

All the sudden, a large, dirty deer person with an unkempt beard wearing a grimey trenchcoat stumbles out of the bushes next to them.

"You kids can't give up begging! It's the easiest thing in the world!" The big deer man exclaims.

"Who are you?" Parappa asks the stranger.

"Name's Beau. Ho-Beau. At your service. And I'm gonna help you two kiddies learn how to get easy money!" Ho-Beau explains.

"Oh…okay…how you gonna do that?" Parappa scratches the back of his head.

"Well, you'll need to look the part…." Ho-Beau stares at the two boys for a few seconds before pushing them both into the dirt.

"HEY! What the heck man!" Parappa and PJ get back up, feeling uncomfortable as they're covered In dirt and mud.

"Perfect! You two are halfway there." The deer exclaims.

"Ugh…what's next?" Parappa cautiously looks at Ho-Beau for what he has to say next.

"Next is the fun part! We're gonna learn how to get you some quick moolah!" The homeless man gives Parappa a thumbs up.

"But I can't beg…I suck eggs…" Parappa slouches with disappointment.

"C'mon Parappa, we gotta try…for Sunny." PJ encourages his friend.

Suddenly Parappa imagines an encounter with Sunny.

"Parappa! How could you! You ruined my school books, now you can't even pay for new ones!? I hate you! Joe Chin could buy me a million books!" Sunny slaps Parappa as she walks away angry.

Parappa snaps out of it. "I can't let her down…I have to try! But how..."

"Wait...I know! I gotta believe!" Parappa smiles as he shouts his catchphrase.

"Alright! That's what I wanna hear! Now just follow my rap kid, and you'll be a begging god!"

...

"All across the world, there's people without necessity. Food, water, shelter and even electricity. But this old deer has one thing in mind, you gotta do whatever to get out of a bind!"

"Beg beg beg!"

"Spare some change?"

"Can I have a penny?"

"Don't be out of range."

Out of all my years, I've shed a lot of tears. Living in the cold, It's hard to be bold. But give it your best shot, no matter what. And you'll find yourself out of a rut!"

"Can I be a star?"

"My homies say hollah."

"You're gonna go far."

"You're gonna go far!"

"Pennies, nickels, any kind of coin. Nothing at all is like a kick to the groin. My dope rhymes make all the girlies dance. My sick beats will make you pee your pants!"

"But I have to try, I just gotta try!"

"Cuz if I don't, I may just die."

"Copper pennies, to silver rings."

"I may be on the streets, but I'm my own King!"

"I may be on the streets, but I'm my own king!"

People gather around and applaud Parappa as his cup is filled with coins and dollar bills of all types.

"I told ya kid. You're a begging god. Hehe."

"Thanks teacher! Time to help my girl!"

(A/N: Parappa's got some cash!
