Taz: wipes forehead Whew! This story writing is hard work!
Jo: Aww, has poor Taz spwained her ickle finger?
Taz: Yeah I have sniff Kiss it better!!!
Jo: death glares On with the show...
Jo stopped her rummaging and stifled a giggle.
Kenny sings in the shower?!
Taz clamped a hand over her mouth, her puppy brown eyes bulging wildly as her whole body shook trying to suppress the urge to laugh out loud.
"Try the wardrobe." Jo hissed, still rummaging through the drawers.
"What exactly are we looking for?" Taz winced as she spoke louder than she intended, and the ominous sound of Kai rolling over in his sleep filled her ears.
She froze stiff and her eyes darted over to the bed, where the lump under the sheets shifted.
Jo let out a sigh of relief when the rhythmic snoring continued, and poked Taz in the ribs. "The scarf stupid!"
Taz pouted and folded her arms. "I'm not stupid!" She muttered, ambling over to the wardrobe.
"Err, Taz?" Jo sounded worried.
Taz frowned as she turned to her friend who was now standing next to the bed. "Yeah?"
"This is gonna be more difficult than I thought."
Taz frowned again and crept over to stand opposite Jo on the other side.
"Why? It's not like he sleeps with the damn thing!"
"You just had to say it!" Jo groaned, pulling back the covers to reveal that most of Kai's chin was buried by it.
Taz rolled her eyes. "Just leave it to me," She beamed. "You might wanna run though."
Jo raised an eyebrow then her face became a mask of pure horror as she realised what Taz was going to do.
"One...two...three..." Taz raised an eyebrow at Jo who seemed to be frozen on the spot.
Jo's legs finally responded and she bolted down the stairs at the same instant as Taz grabbed one end of the scarf and yanked as hard as she could.
"It's dark in here isn't it Jo." Taz grinned as her friend just barely managed a smile.
"Yes it's dark Taz." She muttered. (A.N: The beginning of a hilarious joke!)
Outside, the other Bladebreakers had not been so lucky; Max was cowering behind the sofa, Rei had crawled under the stairs, Kenny had hid under the computer desk, and Tyson was currently being given the third degree.
"For the hundredth time, I don't know where your stupid scarf is!" Tyson glared at Kai defiantly.
"I'm warning you Granger..." Kai stopped abruptly as he heard a muffled giggle.
Jo quickly clamped a hand over Taz's mouth. "Shh!" She hissed.
Taz peered through the gap where hinges met the wooden side panels; Kai still hadn't figured out where they were.
Jo let out a sigh of relief when she saw him stomp off in search of Rei.
"Yuck!" Taz wrinkled her nose, "Your hand tastes like sweat!"
Jo's response was to stick her tongue out.
"Well this was worth getting up at six-am for." Taz continued brightly.
"Yeah, I was so looking forward to being stuck in a clock with you!" Jo muttered.
"Well I got you the scarf didn't I?" Taz pouted.
"You didn't have to wake him up!" Jo retorted, still peering through the crack.
"Yeah well, he shouldn't be lazy!"
The rest of the afternoon should have passed by peacefully; Taz had screamed at Kai until she was blue in the face so he had eventually given up asking if she'd stolen his scarf, and Jo still unnerved him so he didn't even try asking her.
Now, Max's insatiable curiosity had gotten the better of him; while Taz was preoccupied playing "cheat" with Tyson, and Jo was out shopping, he decided to have a quick peek in their room.
He'd caught a glimpse of the room while giving her the makeover, and their was something about the way that Jo's stuff was neat and tidy, while Taz's was complete chaos, that made him curious.
He stood in the centre of the room, unsure where to start.
Then he spotted a makeshift wardrobe at the back, and bounded over to it eagerly.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!"
Taz looked up from her cards instantly. "Hey, was that Maxie?"
"I dunno." Tyson replied, craning his neck over the space between them to try to get a peek at her cards.
"I'm not blind you know." She muttered, eyes still locked on the doorway.
Tyson gulped and quickly shuffled back to his seat.
Seconds later Max sped through the door, waving a piece of paper in his hand frantically.
"I'm being stalked!" He wailed, much to Tyson's amusement, while Taz hid behind her hands and blushed.
"Aw, come on Maxie, who'd wanna stalk you?" Tyson jumped up and threw an arm around Max's shoulder jokingly.
"Then why was there a picture of me in the girl's room!" Max burst out, earning a glare from Taz.
"You went in my room?!" Her voice dropped to a deadly calm whisper and her eyes narrowed. "No-one goes in my room!" She exploded.
(A.N: TEEN TITANS GO!)
"What's all the yelling about?" Jo's voice floated through from the kitchen, and Max leapt gratefully towards it.
"He went in my room!" Taz fumed, her left eye twitching dangerously while Tyson patted her head playfully.
"No need to pop a vein Hun." Was the calm reply.
Taz was about to answer when something else caught her eye; Rei was still under the stairs.
"Aww, that's so cute!" Jo squealed when she saw Rei curled up in a ball, sucking his thumb.
"Polaroid!" Taz clapped her hands.
"Will a camera phone do?" Tyson appeared behind Taz – who immediately folded her arms over her chest – waving a Nokia in his hand.
"Hey! Where'd you get that?!" Jo yelped, snatching at her phone.
"If you've killed my kitty-Kai you're gonna pay!" She warned, wagging a finger at him.
Taz meanwhile, had formulated a plan in her sick twisted little mind.
She rubbed her hands together gleefully, then reached for a hairbrush.

"Oh man, you guys are so dead!" Tyson giggled.
"No rest for the wicked!" Taz grinned making a beeline for the computer.
"What the hell are you doing?" Jo grumbled as she had her phone snatched away again.
"What? You never heard of multiple email?" Taz smiled innocently.
Tyson looked confused. "What's email?"
Taz sweat dropped halfway through the upload. "God give me strength!" She groaned.

"Now all we do is wait." Taz grinned, leaning back in the chair and resting her arms behind her head.

"I am a genius!" Taz beamed high-fiving Tyson.
"Hey genius! I want my phone back!" Jo yelled.
"Hey! He's waking up!" Tyson jumped as Rei began to stretch and yawn, flashing sharp fangs.
"I got first dibs on the clock!" Taz dived out of sight.
"Wait for me!" Tyson dived after her.
"Time for a cup of good old English tea!" Jo strolled calmly into the kitchen.
(A.N: Yup, we're English born and bred!)
"MY HAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!"
Taz and Tyson giggled.
Taz squirmed uncomfortably. "Have you lost weight Hun?" She smiled sarcastically.
"Don't think so." Tyson replied cluelessly.
"MY EYEBROWS!"
A loud crash followed by explosive laughter erupted from the kitchen.
"Jo is so dead!" Tyson giggled, grinning at Taz who smiled and rolled her eyes.
Jo: eyes on the ceiling I didn't do it!
Taz: Who was it then the Boogie Man?!
Jo: Nah! The Candy man!
Taz: sings The Candy man can!
Jo: sometimes you scare me ¬.¬'
