The Twins Excellent Adventure.

Part 1

Prelude...

It's a beautiful Spring day in the city of Winnetka. The sun is shining and the birds are chirping. It makes for a perfect day to get out and have lots of fun. That's exactly what the McCallister twins are thinking.

McCallister House-Megan and Linnie's Room...

March 31, 1990-2:00 P.M.

(Linnie's PoV:)

Some New Kids on the Block is currently playing on stereo much to my disgust, as my twin sister, Megan, and myself are laying belly-first on our beds, trying to think of something to do on this beautiful sunny day in March. We have been trading suggestions for the past hour, with no luck.

"How about going to the mall?" my sister suggests, with a hopeful expression on her face. She stares at me from the edge of her bed, which is directly across from mine.

I shake my head "no" and reply, "Hanging out at the mall isn't my thing, when it doesn't involve shopping," I tell her, for the millionth time. Gossiping is such a waste of mental power, when it can be better used to enlighten the mind, like at the library, for example.

Megan frowns, since she knows what I'm thinking though our bond, as she speaks, "You're never going to have a social life or any friends, if you don't get out there and meet people at places, besides the library," she snarks.

I, of course, frown back at her and her malicious comments about my personal life. "I do have a social life, and friends that I socialize with," I retort in my defense, while looking down at the history book I'm currently reading for Mr. Moore's history class.

"Yeah, the library is such a wonderful place to hang out. I mean, the excitement of just sitting around with a bunch of nerds, discussing the latest school assignment, or discussing the excitement of starting a new unit in Math class. It must be really thrilling…" she snarks again.

My cheeks flush red, as I look up and tell Megan off about insulting my friends, but luckily, I don't need to, because Fred, the family's Collie, from out of nowhere, jumps on Megan's bed and starts licking my twin sister's face, against her protests to stop.

I can't help but laugh at my sister, especially after the mean things she said earlier.

"Get off me, you big disgusting fleabag. Ugh, gross… Really gross, Fred," Megan complains, as she wipes slobber off her face. Fred pins down Megan again on her bed, licking and slobbering on her face some more. "You stinking mutt." My twin sister whines.

"Oh, look who's finally found a boyfriend… Hey, Megan, you and Fred make such a great couple," taunts our older brother, Buzz, who's standing at our bedroom door uninvited, while pointing and laughing at Megan.

I'm about to stick up for my twin, but Fred, again, beats me to the punch, when he notices Buzz at the door and starts sniffing around the room. He's looking at Buzz dead in the eye. Buzz is suddenly scared shitless from the look he's getting. That is when Fred begins to bark, very slowly too I might add.

"Oh, crap!" all three of us exclaim.

That bark means trouble, as it is only used to alert our Mother that Fred suspects us kids are up to some monkey business. Buzz, being the coward that he is, tries to flee our room, but Fred is able to quickly block him from leaving.

He presses Buzz against the wall and growls, as if he's saying, "Don't move!" as Fred barks louder.

"What's going on up there?!" yells our Mother, whose footsteps can be heard loudly marching up the stairs.

"We're just playing with Fred, Mom!" I suddenly yell, surprising my twin sister.

"Playing with, huh?" Mom sticks her head inside the room, scaring us. "If you three are playing with Fred, then why does Fred have Buzz against the wall? You three are up to some monkey business, and I intend to find out what," Mom says, with firm conviction.

Mom starts her questioning with Megan about what went on in this room. Megan tells her that Fred came in here, jumped on her bed, and started licking her face. Megan then went on to explain about Buzz sticking his head in the room and teasing her. That's when she explained about Fred noticing Buzz, sniffing around the room, and starting to bark; Buzz trying to escape, Fred stopping him, and backing him against the wall.

"You know the rest," Megan tells her.

Mom seems satisfied with Megan's story. That's when she turns to me and asks for my story. I basically tell her the same story Megan told her.

When she asks Buzz for his story, Buzz tries to tell Mom a bullshit story about how Megan and I were wrestling on the floor, and that Fred and he tried to break up the fight.

Fred growls at Buzz for the lie he tells our Mother. Mom soon quickly chimes in and tells Buzz she's heard enough, and that she doesn't buy his story, due to Fred growling. Mom presses Buzz about why Fred would suddenly sniff around the room, at his sudden presence.

Buzz hesitates about answering the question. Suddenly, a fearful look appears on my brother's face, as Fred starts sniffing around his pants pocket. That of course catches our Mom's attention, and makes her suspicious.

Mom demands Buzz to empty out all his pockets. Buzz hesitates, until Mom shouts at him. Buzz empties all his pockets to reveal several packs of cigarettes.

Mom's eyes widen, in anger, before yelling, "Buzz, go to your room right now! You're in deep trouble mister. Wait till your father hears about this. You're already in hot water with your Dad from that little prank you pulled earlier today."

Buzz quickly sulks away to his room, but not before giving a glare at Megan, myself, and Fred, which he soon regrets, because Mom catches him and smacks him behind the head. "Ow!"

Mom turns her attention to Megan and myself, once Buzz is out of the room. "Girls, since your Father has taken your brothers on a fishing trip with your Uncle Buck, I thought that the two of you could spend the afternoon at Funkytown Amusement Park. Consider it my way of making up for missing Daughters' Day out." Mom explains to us, smiling, as she hugs the both of us.

Megan and I smile with glee, as we both have been dying to visit Funkytown, without any annoying brothers and overbearing parents for a long time…
