~Chapter 3: Hinkypunk's Homey~
"So, what're we going to do? Ooh, I know! Let's play Hinkypunk's Homey!" Casey said enthusiastically.
"Yeah!" the others said. Hinkypunk's Homey was a game the four had invented. You play it throughout the entire day, but you couldn't let the parents know you were playing it, because they didn't like the game. What you had to do was simple, you just play pranks. Make your friends fall for stupid things like one time when they were playing.like one time.
**FLASHBACK**
"Jason, sweetie, can you get me some coffee with cream and sugar, please?" Lydia asked sweetly.
"Sure."
As Jason turned his back to get some sugar, Casey and Kathleen poured some tabasco sauce in the coffee and they enchanted the coffee to turn your mouth green. Laughing, they skipped outside. When Jason gave Lydia the coffee, at once, her tounge turned green and the coffee was spicy. Jason was grounded for one week. That's the other rule about Hinkypunk's Homey: you can't tattle-tail! You take the blame for the prank pulled on you. This was fun, but the grown-ups thought it was an un-educational game to play, well. . . at least all the mothers did. The dads thought it was cute for them to be pranking each other so early in life. They called the game Hinkypunk's Homey because Hinkypunks were liars and they were very deceitful. That's what you had to be in this game.
As soon as they finished eating, they set off. In this game, you were your own team. You might start out by pranking people in partners, but sooner or later, your partner might betray you and they might prank you! Casey and Kathleen went in one direction, trying to find what they could do to the boys, and Jake and Jason rushed the other way, searhcing for a good trick to pull on the girls. "Aha!" Jake said moments later. He pointed to a few large black spider scuttling around outside. They quietly trooped out, scooped up the spiders, and hurried on. They found Kathleen's sweater in Jake's room and placed the spidesr carefully inside.
"What if the spiders crawl out?" Jason whispered.
"Then, don't worry, Mum will definitely find them and get 'em good- she hates bugs." Jake said grimly. He slipped silently from the room.
