THUNK!

CLANG!

CRASH!

Bushroot and Megavolt looked at each other from across the room, and cringed again as the clattering continued.

"I'm starting to think that maybe ordering out would've been a good idea..." Bushroot mumbled, leaning forward and putting his elbows on his knees, and his chin in his hands.

"Yeah.." Megavolt agreed, covering his head as an extra loud bang echoed from the kitchen.

"Geez Lily!" Fell coughed, emerging from the huge cloud of smoke that now filled Megavolt's kitchen. "Calm down!" Lily walked out a few seconds later, coughing.

"Calm down? Calm down!? These two idiots give me four hours to prepare something for the Fearsome Four, and us, and you tell me to calm down!" Bushroot and Megavolt began to sink into the couch.

"Ooooh, just be glad Negaduck still hasn't shown up..." Megavolt whined. It had been a month since the disaster at Negaduck's hideout, and the chainsaw weaving duck had still not returned. The Fearsome Four were indeed enjoying their time off, but now they were getting edgy. Bushroot most of all, since Negaduck still had no clue he was no longer a part of the FF. Hopefully learning that Fell had joined would lighten him up though. Not that he had much of a chance with the spliced female anyway, she had moved in with Megavolt a couple of weeks ago, and though they never confirmed it, the rest believed they were a 'couple.'

"DING DONG! DING DONG! DINGDONGDINGDONGDINGDONG!"

"Honey, don't worry about it, QuackerJack's here, we'll just order out!" Bushroot pleaded, and climbed over the couch to stand in front of Lily.

"Order out? Oooh, you're sleeping with Spike tonight!" She crossed her arms over her chest, and turned her back to him. Megavolt turned around, now kneeling on the couch to watch as Bushroot fell to his knees and grabbed Lily's arm.

"I'm sorry Lil!" He mumbled. Megavolt looked at her face, and she smiled, and turned around.

"Oh, get up-"

"DINGDONGDINGDONGDINGDONGDINGDONG!"

"And answer the door."

"You know what's funny," Megavolt mused as he hopped over the couch to join Bushroot in the door opening. "I don't have a door bell.."

"SURPRISE!" Laughed QuackerJack as he bounced in.

"Where's the food, dude?" Mr. Banana Brain piped in.

"On it's way.." Lily mumbled, as she and Felicia walked back into the kitchen to air it out.

"Aww, am I the first one here?" The jester whined, jumping onto Megavolt's old couch. He continued to bounce.

"Yes.." Megavolt mumbled, watching as the duck appeared then disappeared as he jumped up and down and up and down and up and down and u-

"Get the door, it's The Liquidator!" A bubbly voice murmured as a puddle of water poured under the door.

"Oooh goody! Somebody with a sense of humor!" QuackerJack giggled, now sitting on the back of the couch, and clapping.

Bushroot, Lily, and Fell looked at each other..

It was going to be a looooooong night.
