Chaptah 12

When I finished telling them what had happened. Spot's face was not pretty.

"Oh if dey weren't grownups I's would soak dem." Race said.

"Now, now Racetrack. Youse gottah settle down." Said a voice from the door.

It was Mush. He walked over to where Racetrack was and patted him on the back. Then he looked at me and smiled.

"What happened? Why are you here? Where are your parents?" I asked, very concerned.

"I'm glad I'm back too." He laughed. "Well dey was wanted by da bull. So, I have kept my distance from dem in hopes I would run into da police. And I have done. Right now dey are in jail." He told all of us.

I ran and gave him a big bear hug and a on the cheek. "So youse wanna be goil again?" he asked me.

"Um." I looked over at Hypno, and then I shook my head. Mush's smile faded as I went over to Hypno.

"Why no?"

"'Cause I'm in love with him." I said, looking up at Hypno. Hypno was 5'8, 184 lbs., short blonde hair, blue eyes and had the sweetest smile, while I was 5'7, 148 lbs., medium blonde hair, blue eyes, glasses, and a nice smile. So, since Hypno was taller I had to look up at him. When I looked back everyone was gone but Mush who had a frown.

"Ok, I'll fight you for her." Mush said to Hypno.

"Mush, NO!" I yelled. But it was to late, they had already shook.

"HELP!" I yelled and ran to Spot, Race, Blink, Snitch, Pie, Jack, and Toughy.

"What's the mattah?!" Blink asked, with a worried look. By now I was crying.

"They are gonna fight for me and I can't stop It." I cried.

"Who is?" Jack questioned," Mush and Hypno?"

I nodded. Jack took my arm and ran to the room. When we got there, Mush had Hypno pinned to the ground. Jack rushed and tried to pull them apart but it was no use, they were glued together. Then Spot had an Idea. He told me in my ear and I agreed. He took his cane and put it to my neck as if to choke me.

"Hey youse two!" he yelled, "If youse don't stop then I's will Choke her ta death."

They stopped and looked at us. So did everyone else. Only Spot and I knew the plan. This was a test. A test to see which one would believe he was lying or believe he was telling the truth. The one who knew he was lying would stay where they were. The one who BELIEVED he was telling the truth would come after him. And that's what Spot told them.

Mush stood there with a blank look on his face and Hypno came charging. I smiled and Spot removed his cane from my neck and allowed Hypno to knock him down. Then Hypno came over to me and hugged me tight. Mush lost and he knew it from the beginning. He walked over to his bunk and sat down. I went over to him. Hypno, Race, Jack, Spot, Snitch, Pie, and all the rest of them came. I sat down next to him.

"Are you alright?" I asked.

"Ya, I's fine." He said." It's jist, I's really like youse but I's knew Spot was jokin', and Hypno didn't. So I's let him have you 'cause I's know I's don't desiove youse."

"Oh Mush, don't talk like that. You do deserve me. I don't deserve you." I told him. He took me in his arms and hugged me. I cried on his shoulder.
