Pyromaniac: This idea actually came to me when Monkey Chan was complaining about how much she hated driving.

Takes place before and during the middle of The Toad, The Witch, And The Wardrobe.
If you don't know who the squirrel is….meh on you! He first joined the gang in Flammable Icing and Barbie Dolls
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We are at the new Headquarters of the Acolytes…now the attic of Sabertooth's grandmother's house! Don't ask.
"Oh yea, nothing beats playing paddleball!" Peter exclaimed from his spot on the couch. The gang were currently hanging out at Sabertooth's grandmother's pad. Remy and Pietro were playing air hockey, Peter was playing paddleball, Sabertooth was looking at baby pictures of himself, and John and the squirrel were having a conversation by the window.
"Oh yea!" Pietro cried jumping up and down. "Take that LeBeau! Who's the master?" He jumped on the air hockey table and started to dance. "Oh yea that's me!"
"Get off that before you hurt yourself!" Sabertooth's grandma cried. She had just come up to drop off some snacks when she saw him up there.
"Sorry Grandma Creed"
"That's better" She went back down to the kitchen.
"Dude, your grandma's so nice!"
"I know, and she bakes the best cookies"
"Yummy" they exclaimed.
But their fun was short lived. They were interrupted by Pietro's com-link. "Daddy!" Pietro cried as he answered.
"Don't call me that"
"Okay"
"Good morning Acolytes"
"Good morning Eric" the gang chorused.
"I have an assignment for you John."
"Sweet! Take that losers!"
"I'll continue now. I need you to go freak out my daughter. You know, set fire to a bridge, turn it into a big animal, the usual"
"Can do!" John jumped out the window.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Five minutes later……
"She knocked me off a bridge!" John cried running back into the attic with tears streaming down his face. "I could have been hurt, if it wasn't for my monkey-like reflexes"
"And to think" Peter angrily said crossing his arms. "I sent her a fruit basket"
Pietro looked at them and sighed "Well that's Wanda for you. One minute she's a sweet slightly murderous little girl, and then the next…" He trailed off. "You don't want to know"
The gang exchanged nervous looks.
"Maybe it's her time of the month," Sabertooth said cocking his head to the side.
The gang looked at each other. "Ewwwww"
"Sabes, we're trying to cheer John up"
"Oh….sorry"
"You now what cheers me up?" Peter asked with an excited look on his face.
Remy looked thoughtful. "Christian love?"
"Drugs?" Pietro wanted to know.
The squirrel nodded in agreement.
Sabertooth and John looked at Peter. "We're going to have to go with drugs too"
"No!" Peter cried. "Smoothies!"
"Let's go!"
"I call shot-gun!"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The gang is driving down the street in Scott's car with the top up. "As much as I love double-berry-bazooka, I'm still upset" John said taking a sip of his smoothie.
"Well you know what also cheers me up?" Peter asked
"Beer?"
"No…..I wish. It's Karaoke!"
"Yea!"
"To the Karaoke bar!" Pietro cried. "Onward troops!"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Okay, we'll like to do a little number dedicated to all the pretty ladies out there in radio land" Pietro said in a deep voice into the mike. They had just gotten into the Karaoke bar, and were now on stage. The squirrel sat in the audience and waved to them.

The gang jumps off the stage to scattered applause. "That was fun," John said with a grin as his pet squirrel jumped on his shoulder. "We should do it again next week"
Pietro's com-link beeped again. "Daddy!" Pietro cried. "We had some much fun today! How 'bout you come with us next time?"
"Shut up. Good morning Acolytes"
"Actually it's now the afternoon"
"I said Good Morning"
"Good morning Eric" the gang chorused.
"Alright John, because you messed up the last mission, you'll have to do this one"
"Kay!"
"I need you to go snowboarding"
"Yea!"
"And ya gotta get my daughter too, I need to erase her memory so she thinks I'm a nice daddy"
"Nice parenting"

"Let's go!"
And they did.
