Time For Bed

"Well dinner was a rousing success," Jean sighed as she put away the last of the pizza boxes. "And it only took us three hours to finish it."

"Yeah it's only…8:45," Scott groaned. "Now all we have to do is get the kids ready for bed so we can have some peace and quiet."

"Did you tell the girls that they have to be in bed at 9?" Jean asked.

"Yeah but I don't think they were listening," Scott sighed as he picked up Barney. "Need help getting them ready for their bath?"

"Please," Jean moaned as they went upstairs. They got them undressed and into the bathtub. The babies squealed with delight as they were bathed. "Do you think one of us should yell at the Triplets to get ready again?"

"Might as well," Scott sighed. "All right girls you have to get ready for bed…now?" He was shocked when he turned around.

"We're ready!" The Triplets sang out, dressed in cute little pink nightgowns.

"That was quick," Scott blinked.

"It's good to go to bed early," Daria said.

"That way we'll be well rested and full of energy tomorrow!" Quinn smiled.

"Up with the sun!" Brittany grinned.

"Well there's a happy thought," Scott moaned.

"Scott you tuck them in and get them ready for bed while I take care of the babies," Jean sighed. "Hey stop splashing me you two!"

* Bath time is fun! * Claudius giggled.

"Okay you three," Scott sighed as he showed them to their room. "Time for bed."

"You have to read to us first," Brittany said as she scampered into the bed.

"Reading is very important," Quinn said.

"Whatever puts you to sleep," Scott sighed as he started to tuck them in. "What's this?"

"First we all take our drink of milk," Daria held up a small glass to Scott. "Everybody drinks."

"It's a rule we made up to make sure our Daddy gets his calcium," Brittany said.

"Well okay," Scott downed the drink. "So what story do you want to hear?"

"Read this!" Quinn held up a book. "It's our favorite!"

Scott nearly did a double take. "The Handbook for Real Estate Laws and Practice?" He asked. "You want me to read this?"

"Hey it's educational," Brittany said.

"You said whatever would put us to sleep," Daria pointed out.

"So I did," Scott sighed as he sat down. "Okay. It's your book."

"Read chapter 12!" Quinn said excitedly. "It's all about subdivisions and subdivision control!"

"OOOHHH!" The triplets said excitedly.

"You three are weird you know that?" Scott sighed. "Okay Chapter 12. A subdivision is generally defined as land divided into tow or more lots not fronting on a public or approved way." Already Scott was bored but he kept reading. "Successful subdivision planning includes more than the drawing of lots and streets on paper…"

Scott yawned and kept going. "It includes…" He yawned again. "The planning of neighborhoods (Yawn) in large…tracts…" He felt very sleepy. "Land to be subdivided must first…first…be surveyed…(yawn) by a registered land surveyoooooorrrrrr…."

Scott dropped his head and started to snore gently. "Is he out cold?" Brittany asked. "Or is it just the book?"

"Nope the sleeping drug worked," Daria checked Scott over. "Now all we have to worry about is the telepath!"

"Got it," Quinn brought out a blowgun hidden underneath her pillow.

A few minutes later Jean was finishing up. "Okay now you're both bathed and dressed in your PJ's," Jean sighed as she placed the boys in the crib. "Now all we have to do is send you to sleep. OW!"

Jean felt a prick on the back of her neck. "What the?" She reached over and pulled out a small dart before she passed out onto the floor.

"Got her!" Quinn grinned as she emerged from her hiding place.

"Nice shot," Brittany remarked.

"I thought so," Quinn grinned.

Both Barney and Claudius managed to escape from the crib. "Seepy bye," Claudius giggled as he climbed on top of Jean.

"Night night," Barney patted Jean's head.

"Well that was easy," Daria grinned.

"Girls, time for us to go par-tayyyy!" Brittany giggled.

Quickly the girls threw off their nightgowns and changed into three matching outfits. Gold tops with black skirts. They used Jean's lipstick and put glitter on their faces and hair. "We look gorgeous darling!" Quinn preened in front of the mirror.

"Hey I just had a thought," Brittany said.

"What a novel achievement," Daria quipped.

"No seriously," Brittany told her sisters. "We have two X-Men unconscious and vulnerable. I say we take advantage of that before we leave."

"What did you have in mind?" Daria asked. Brittany whispered to her sisters. "Great idea!" Daria laughed.

"I'll get the camera!" Quinn chirped happily.

When they had finished they made their way to the garage. "Okay now all we have to do is hot wire a car and drive it," Daria said.

"How do we do that?" Quinn asked. "We can't reach the pedals!"

"No problem," Brittany took out some strange stilts with large feet. "And I got something even better when I was rummaging around!" She handed them some holowatches.

"You thinking what I'm thinking?" Daria grinned.

"Oh yeah," Quinn nodded. They pressed the buttons and soon there were 18-year-old versions of themselves standing there.

"Now we can get into a nightclub!" Quinn giggled.

"Yeah and I can get a drink!" Polly said as he flapped into the back seat of Scott's car. "Right Locky?" Lockheed the dragon nodded as he sat next to him.

"All right!" Brittany got behind the wheel of Scott's car and started it. "Everybody ready for a night on the town!"

"You got it sister!" Quinn laughed.

"Let's blow this joint!" Daria smiled as they tore off into the night.

So where will the Triplets end up? What damage will they do to the town? What did they do to Jean and Scott? How much fun will the babies have alone in the mansion? And what damage can a parrot and a dragon on a search for alcohol do?

Well this is the part where you, the wonderful readers come in! Send in your crazy suggestions! What will happen? Wait and see!

Daria: You're getting lazy aren't you?

I've been a little busy! I need new ideas! So please send them in!

Brittany: Yeah heaven forbid she actually does some work around here!

Okay where is my mallet?
