Chapter Two
"Mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble."
"MAKE THE MADNESS STOP! MAKE THE MADNESS STOP! MAKE THE-"
Zero then noticed that Twitch had stopped mumbling. His head slowly turned to Twitch. He looked like an insane clown. "Y-you stopped."
Twitch didn't say anything. And-surprise-he didn't even twitch. He just stared blankly at the wall.
"Oh.I see what you're trying to do," said Zero. "You're making me think that you're gonna stop, but you're really gonna continue later. Well, that won't work on me!"
Twitch just stared blankly at the wall.
Twenty minutes passed. Zero couldn't take it anymore. "AAAARRRRAAGGHHH!!!!!!!!! YOU GOT THE MUMBLING STUCK IN MY HEAD!!!!!!!!"
Twitch continued to stare at the wall.
"MAKE THE MADNESS STOP! MAKE THE MADNESS STOP! MAKE THE MADNESS STOP! MAKE THE MADNESS STOP! MAKE THE MADNESS STOP!"
:_~_:
"Armpit."
"Yeah?"
"I give up."
"It's about time."
"So."
"So."
"So."
"So."
:_~_:
"Hey, Barf Bag," said X-Ray.
"What?"
"Wanna go to the pool?"
"Why?"
"I dunno."
"What're we gonna do there?"
"I dunno." X-Ray thought for a moment. "Wait.Something's comin' back.Oh, yeah! We swim!"
"Oh, yeah!"
They waited for a minute in silence.
"Wait," Barf Bag said. "WHAT are we gonna do there?"
"I don't know."
:_~_:
"So."
"So."
"So."
"What was water in a hole for?" asked Squid.
"I dunno. What?" asked Magnet.
"TO CLEAN YOUR ASS!!!!!"
They howled with laughter (remember: they're acting like duh masses).
They sighed. "No. Seriously guys. What's a pool for?" asked Squid.
The other two looked into the sky.
Zigzag had a thought. "I think. GIANT MONKEYS ARE OUT TO GET US!!!!"
They looked at him, confused. Magnet had another suggestion. "I think. that it was for.wait, I almost have it.swimming! Yeah! That's it!"
Squid jumped and pretended to be like a ditzy girl. "Like, oh my gosh! You're like, so totally right! Like, come here! Like, let me give you a hug!"
Magnet carried on the act. "Like, oh my gosh! I, like, so totally won! And, like," he gave it up and regularlly said," so totally can't do this."
Squid walked over to him and put an arm around his shoulders. "It's all right it's nothing to be ashamed of. Really."
Magnet looked at Squid. "Thanks." He kissed him on the cheek and slipped into the water. Zigzag had already gotten into the pool. Squid just stood there, blushing. He smiled, and jumped into the pool.
:_~_:
Zero had given up, and now the room of 714 was dead silent.
Twitch finally broke the ice/glass/any other delicate item that you can think of. "So, wanna go sneak into the casino?"
Zero thought about it. "Sure. Why not? But first, what's a casino?"
Twitch smiled and put an arm around Zero's shoulder. "I'll tell you on the way."
:_~_:
"Armpit.?"
"Yeah?"
"You hungry?"
"Yeah."
"Wanna go to the food court?"
"Sure."
Silence.
"Who's payin'?"
"Armpit, this is an all expense trip."
Armpit stared at Caveman blankly.
"That means that whatever we do is probably already paid for."
"Oh. Okay. Let's go!"
"All right."
They left room 715.
"So.paid by who.?"
;_~_;
"Barf Bag?"
"Yeah?"
"Ready to go?"
"Been ready ever since I ran away."
"What?"
"Oh, nothing."
"Then let's go."
On their way out, they found a surprise.
Barf Bag screamed. X-Ray stared wide-eyed.
:_~_:
"Woo!"
"This is great!"
"Water is terrific!"
"Woo!"
Everyone had gotten out of the pool. That's what THEY thought anyway. Everyone was actually in their bedrooms, trying to get some sleep. It was different if they were teens though.
Squid came up from the water. He looked at Zigzag and came over to him. "You know, your hair is still stickin' up?"
Zigzag nodded. "Yeap. I know. But it's nothin' I would brag about."
"Why?"
"No reason."
In a matter of minutes, Squid and Zigzag were joking around.
Magnet stayed at the far end of the pool. This time, he was the one who felt left out. So he went back to their room. Room 713.
When he got there, he noticed the two last numbers. 13.
"The unlucky number," he said to himself. He walked into the room and sat on the windowsill. The window was open. He thought about Squid. He began talking to himself.
"I can't believe it. But I can't deny it. I-I love him."
;_~_;
"So.What's a casino like?"
"It's pretty fun. I think you'll find a surprise there."
"A surprise? What?"
"Ah, but that's the element of surprise. You can't know about it."
"Oohh."
Zero was amazed. He had actually made Twitch stop twitching.
:_~_:
Armpit and Caveman ate at the food court(the end).
:_~_:
"What are you guys doin' here?" asked Thlump.
"I dunno. What do YOU wanna do?" asked X-Ray.
Easy and Thlump looked at each other. Then back at X-Ray.
"Huh?"
"Oh, sorry." He noticed the two boys looking at him. "Back to you!!!"
"BACK TO YOU!!!"
"BACK TO YOU!!!!!"
"BACK TO YOU!!!!!!!!"
Easy and Barf Bag were the only ones who were still in the real world.
"So," started Easy.
"You wanna go to the pool?" finished Barf Bag.
"Sure."
They walked down the hall. When they got into the elevator, both asked, "What's a pool?"
"Mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble mumble."
"MAKE THE MADNESS STOP! MAKE THE MADNESS STOP! MAKE THE-"
