"Has anyone borrowed Celeste?" Angel yelled, her forehead creasing as she tried to find her favourite toy amongst the myriad of other cuddly toys in her bed.

"No, honey, I haven't..." Max replied from the kitchen, glaring at Iggy and Gazzy threateningly. "Although you might want to try asking some other people..."

Iggy and Gazzy looked innocently back at her, before donning tinfoil hats and going to hide behind the sofa. Fang and Nudge quickly did the same.

Max looked confused, before Fang came over and whispered something in her ear. She grinned, and quickly made herself one with the kitchen tinfoil, going to hide behind the sofa too.

"Guys?" a small uncertain voice came from the bedroom that Angel and Nudge shared. "Are you alright? Your thoughts just all disappeared..."

The sound of hesitant footsteps came down the hallway. Angel peered in through the doorway, and her eyes opened wide as she saw that the flock had mysteriously disappeared.

"Max? Fang? Iggy? Gazzy? Nudge?" she squeaked.

Gazzy leapt out from behind the sofa, dropping something small on the floor, and yelled "ERASERS! QUICK, RUN!"

Angel screamed and whipped out her wings, yelling for Max, who promptly popped up from behind the sofa, laughing hysterically. Angel looked confused to see the rest of the flock behind the sofa, all wearing tinfoil hats and shaking with laughter.

"Where're the Erasers?" Angel asked, looking worried. "You said there were Erasers..."

Gazzy pointed to the floor, to the small object he had just thrown down. On closer inspection, it turned out to be a small box of pencil erasers.

Angel pouted, knowing she'd been tricked, and then flounced off to her room to sulk. She couldn't even read the flock's minds to see what they were thinking, because they were still wearing their tinfoil hats.

In the kitchen, the flock were discussing what trick to play on Angel next. However, Angel was plotting her own revenge...

At lunchtime, Angel was making sandwiches for lunch, having appeared from her sulk in a better mood. "Would you like a sandwich, Max?" she asked innocently.

"Yes please, thanks," Max said, a little surprised that Angel was being so nice after her sulk.

The sandwich was made and presented to Max, and just after she had taken a huge bite, Gazzy screamed.

"Gazzy? Are you OK?" Max asked, well aware that the flock was in a practical-joke-playing mood this morning.

Gazzy was clutching his throat dramatically and screeching, "AAARRGGHH! She's a CANNIBAAAAL!"

Max tutted. "It's just a sandwich, Gazzy."

Angel grinned. "Yeah, but it's a chicken sandwich."

Angel and Gazzy began to strut round the kitchen, clucking and flapping their wings. Max looked annoyed.

A bird flew past the window. "HEY LOOK! It's your cousin, Max!" Gazzy yelled, before bursting into hysterical laughter, forgetting that he, too, had just as much avian DNA as Max.

Max got up and stalked out, muttering about 'stupid little immature brats', before calling back, "I'm going to have a shower, and I don't want anyone disturbing me for the rest of the day!"

"Women," said Iggy sagely. "They're easily upset, having such small brains."

Nudge thumped him. Max yelled from the bathroom, "I heard that, sexist piglet."

Gazzy sniggered. And then let loose one of his monsters.

"Aw, Gazzy..." Iggy complained. "That really stinks."

Nudge piped up with an evil grin. "I think we should lock him in a room by himself until he learns his lesson."

Fang and Iggy grabbed Gazzy, and carried him, screaming and kicking, down the corridor and into Max's room, which was the only room in the house which had a lock, apart from the bathroom.

Immediately as the door closed, the smell stopped.

While Fang went back to the living room to set a trap for Iggy when he came in, Iggy went into his room to fetch his lock picking kit.

A few minutes later, Fang asked if Max was out of the shower yet, because he wanted one. Iggy, smiling, told him that he had seen Max coming out a couple of minutes ago.

Fang grabbed his towel and shampoo, and headed for the bathroom. He tried the door, to make sure Max was out. It was unlocked, so Iggy had told the truth. He opened the door and went in.

In the living room, the flock heard a loud scream of "PERVERT!", coming from the direction of the bathroom. It was followed by a yell from Gazzy, who, knowing of Iggy's plot, had followed Fang into the bathroom.

"FANG! MAX! MY EYES! PLEASE, THAT IS CHILD ABUSE, MAKING ME SEE THAT!"

Nudge smirked. Angel grinned. Iggy sniggered and got up to go and extricate Fang from Max's fury. That is, until he realised that there was a rather large mousetrap set in the middle of the floor. With a yelp, he trod on it.

And yes, I know they're a little OOC, but hey, this is fanfiction.
