**************************************
After the utterly embarrassing tea party was over, Marron put away all of the tea party equipment, kissed each of the boys on the cheek and ruffled their...erm...ah, scalps. (^^;;) Purposely forgetting to remove their dresses, she happily skipped away to find her mother. When she reached the hallway, she met Mirai Trunks, who was leaning against the doorframe, smirking like his father.
"Mr. Trunksie, you were right! Torturing them is fun!! Can I do it again sometime?" she asked sweetly.
Mirai Trunks smiled. "Anytime you want. And you did a fantastic job! I'm very proud of you."
Marron grinned, genuinely glad to hear the appraisal from her friend. "You are so cool! Hey, did you get the picture?"
"Of course," he said, holding out a recently developed Polaroid of Goten and Chibi drinking tea with Marron.
She grinned.
"Oh, and your parents are looking for you."
She nodded, gave Trunks a hug (AN: awwww...), and scampered off to find her mom. Mirai smiled as she ran away. He then turned his attention to his younger self and his friend. He walked in the living room and picked up the remote control. The boys watched him with curiosity.
"What are you gonna do now? Haven't you tortured us enough?" Chibi asked.
Mirai glanced at them. "Well, I WAS going to change the channel back to those cartoons you love so much, but since you just assumed that I'm so mean and I would torture you again...I guess I'll just have to..."
He pressed a couple of numbers on the remote control, and watched as Chibi and Goten's faces switched to a grief-stricken expression and their bottom lips trembled.
"The Home Shopping Network??? (thanks Anshin!!) NNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" the two boys yelled together.
Mirai Trunks chuckled to himself. //I love being me...//
"Ooohh!!" Goten growled. "You'll get yours, dude!! You just wait! Trunks' brilliant mind will think of a brilliant plan any minute now!"
Chibi smirked at the flattery. Meanwhile, silence reigned and a tumbleweed rolled by. Then Goten and Mirai Trunks burst into hysterical fits of laughter. Chibi scowled.
"What's so funny??! I AM brilliant!!"
Upon hearing that, the two cracked up even more.
"Kami, that was a good one," Mirai Trunks said, wiping a tear from his eye.
Goten nodded, still chuckling. "Yeah."
Chibi fumed. "Meanies," he muttered under his breath.
Mirai folded his arms. "So, I'm gonna get mine, right?"
"Oh yeah! Right!!" Goten cleared his throat. "We're gonna get revenge on you for all of this! Good always wins in the end, ya know!"
"Uh-huh. So I'm bad?"
Both Chibi and Goten nodded.
"Oh well. Fine with me. But Goten, you must remember," he said motioning to their cemented feet, "I've already won."
The two boys gaped at him for a moment, realizing that as long as they were glued to the carpet, they were at Mirai's every command.
Mirai smirked. "So, how does it feel to have been defeated?"
"You haven't won yet!!!" Chibi said, in an attempt to save the small shred of pride he had left.
"Oh but I think I have." Mirai Trunks sniffed the air and smiled. "Is that victory I smell? Why, I think it is."
Chibi grumbled. "This isn't over. No, it isn't over until I say it's over!"
"Sure, whatever you say, kid."
"You just wait. We'll get out of this and your fate will be in our hands," Chibi said to his counterpart challengingly.
Mirai Trunks smirked again. "Just how are you going to escape from that, huh?"
"My brilliant mind will think of something!"
Once again silence reigned for a moment. Once again a tumbleweed rolled by, and once again Goten and Mirai Trunks doubled over in fits of laughter. Chibi growled. Mirai Trunks regained his composure and smiled.
"Well, I'm going to leave your 'brilliant' mind to do whatever it needs to formulate this 'brilliant' plan of yours."
"Where ya going?" Goten asked innocently.
"To the kitchen. I haven't eaten in," he glanced at his watch, "two hours. I'm starving."
And with that he made his exit, leaving Chibi and Goten to ponder on a way to get out of the situation in which they were currently involved. They sat on the floor and put their chin in their hands. After several minutes, Goten's eyes lit up and he screamed,
"By George! I think I've got it!!"
Chibi Trunks blinked. "Really?"
Goten nodded eagerly. "All we need is an anvil!!"
Chibi blinked again. "And just where the heck are we s'pposed to get an anvil??!!"
Goten shrugged bashfully. "I dunno. It just always worked on the cartoons..."
Chibi patted Goten on the head. "It was a good try." (AN: erm, this is something my sis always does to me...*sweatdrop*)
Goten sighed. "So what has your 'brilliant'," he snickered slightly, "mind come up with?"
"Well, I have an idea. Two, actually. One to get us out of this, and one to win the game."
Goten brightened at the promise of a glimmer of hope.
Chibi smirked. "You see that glass of water that just miraculously appeared, thanks to the dork that writes this thing." (AN: hey...I am offended...^^)
He pointed to the glass of clear water that currently sat in front of them, a glass that had not been there before. Goten tilted his head to the side, then nodded, prompting Chibi to continue.
"Well, I'm sure that if we pour that water on the glue, it will become not so sticky. Then we can move from the spot that we've been in for the past eternity."
"Wow, that's a great-"
"Shush! I am not done yet, my child." He draped one arm across Goten's shoulders and put his other arm out in front, palm out, and his fingers spread apart. (AN: tell me you know what I mean guys...^^;;;) "This is only the beginning!"
"O...kay.." Goten said, raising his fake eyebrow.
"The next stage in my plan," he went on, eyes alight with excitement, "is that we travel to my room and commence Phase Two of Operation: Brilliant!!"
"Which is...?"
"I can't tell you that part! It would ruin the cliffhanger!!"
"Oooohhh! I get it now!"
