Chapter 1: A Regular Day!
The Pit
Jake Wildfire, the red-haired, Boston-born dragon-like mutant known as Red Dragon, went over to the Misfit Manor. He was carrying a box. He opened the door to the Misfit Manor. He looked in and sighed.
Typical madness. The red-haired mutant thought. He saw Wanda and Lila double-team Pietro, beating the speedster senseless. Yup. Lila and Wanda still want Pietro's head on a pike… Jake saw Lance, Fred, Todd, and Craig argue over a video game. Those four still go for each other's throats when they play video games… He saw Paul and John sitting at a table, writing. Paul and John are writing the next hit single…He noticed Angelica, Lina, and Spyder playing with some dolls and action figures.
"Beefcaaaaaaaaake!" Spyder screamed, moving a little figure of Eric Cartman, doing a good imitation.
The girls are playing…Jake smiled. Yup, typical Misfits. "Hey guys." The Misfits looked up. "Agh!" The chattering kids gathered around him like wild dogs around meat. "Hey!"
"What's in the box, Jake?" Lina asked.
"Costumes." He peeked above the others. "Where are the adults?"
"Out catching up on their beerology, yo." Todd grinned.
"Oh brother." Jake rolled his eyes. "Anyway, if you loons are through driving every adult within ten feet of you to drink, I got us some costumes. You see, the Joes are throwing their annual Halloween Bash. And I figured we should have costumes." Jake put down the box and opened it. The kids rummaged through the costumes.
"Aw sweet! Casanova!" Pietro grinned, holding up a ruffled shirt.
"Hey Craig, remember this?" Wanda laughed, holding up a black headband with a pair of cat ears on it.
"Keep that thing away from me!" Craig snapped.
"Ooh!" Spyder held up a t-shirt with a design like the front of Spidey's costume.
"Look at this!" Lina laughed when she picked up a pair of blue shades. "Watch this." She put the shades on, and then did a very good impersonation of Kyle: "I'm the Thunderbolt! I hit people because I'm an insecure jabroni who has no clue how to relate with others! I don't need to be nice to people! The Thunderbolt can just hit them!" The Misfits burst out laughing. "Shut your mouths or the Thunderbolt will beat you all into next week because he can't stand jokes about himself! Dragonfly's a lot smarter than the Thunderbolt and the Thunderbolt can't stand it, so he calls her a coward!" She laughed and removed the glasses.
"Hey Lina, that was pretty good." Jake chuckled. "I can imagine how red Kyle's face would turn if he saw that."
"Well it's his fault he can't take light criticism." Lina shrugged with a smile.
"Oh, neat." Angelica picked up a pretty dress.
"Hey babe, what about these? We can go as Sonny and Cher." John grinned, holding up a couple costumes.
"Here John, your date!" Angelica whacked Pyro in the head with a mannequin. "She is crazy about you!"
"Sweet!" Lance held up a knight helmet.
"Hey, Lina!" Fred grinned. "I can go as a Dallas Cowboy and you as a cheerleader!" Fred held up a Cowboys helmet and a Cowboy Cheerleader costume. Lina giggled.
"Fred, you are too much."
"Hey, Al! Check it out! We can be Shrek and Fiona!" Todd held up a pair of costumes.
"Hey yeah!" Al agreed.
"Hmm…" Craig held up a pair of dragon platform boots. "Just like Gene…"
"Ooh!" Lila picked up a red business jacket and a green neckerchief. "Joan Jett wore these on an album cover!"
"No kidding." Paul joked. "You do look a little like Joan."
"It's the hair." Lila grinned. "I liked the way she feathered it back in the day. So I had my hair done like that as my little tribute to her."
"Someone should get Trinity." Althea said. "They're in the lab." The kids chattered and looked over the costumes in the box until they heard a door slam.
"All we are sayyyyyinnnnnn'/ Is Give Peace a Chaaaaaance…" Shipwreck slurred as he stumbled into the room and over the couch. The Misfits blinked. "Wheee…"
"Oh-kay." Paul blinked. The sound of Shipwreck losing his lunch was heard.
"Eww." Angelica scrunched her nose. "I'm not cleaning that up." An explosion was heard from within the lab.
"I don't think anyone would want to." Pyro nodded. Insane cackling was heard from Trinity's lab. "I am very scared now."
"Who can blame you, John? Who can blame you?" Craig said sagely.
"Wheeee…" The adult Joe caretakers, Low Light, Cover Girl, Spirit, and the Blind Master, danced into the room, and they stumbled over the couch. The Misfits blinked.
"They had fun." Lila blinked.
"Next thing you know, they'll release a CD of drunken renditions of classic songs." Pietro groaned.
"Speaking of CD's…" Lance pulled out a CD from his jacket and showed it to the others. On it was a picture of several drunken Joes, and in fancy writing, was written the CD's title: 'The Drunken Joes sing Rock 'n' Roll's Classics'." The other Misfits blinked.
"Wow." Althea gasped. "How did Hawk react?"
"React?!" Lance burst out laughing. "Hawk sang on the CD!!" The Misfits burst out laughing at the thought of General Clayton "Hawk" Abernathy singing. It was hard to imagine the grizzled leader of GI Joe singing sober, much less drunk out of his mind, a state he has become familiar with since the Misfits were formed. "He fancies himself to be Billy Squier a bit."
"Who's Billy Squier?" Pietro wondered. The five Misfits that made up the Superstars groaned.
"Pietro, you know we did a cover of 'The Stroke' for our first album?" Craig asked. Pietro nodded. "Well, Billy Squier first recorded that song in the early 80s." Pietro nodded, then frowned.
"Why would anyone cover a song from the 80s? The 80s sucked!"
"I'm sure you'd know, Pietro." Paul said sarcastically, and then he rolled his chocolate brown eyes. "Anyway, what was that about a costume party?"
Uh oh! Looks like the Misfits just may crash a Halloween party! What insanity will happen next? Who will get drunk? Will there be explosions and craziness? Find out in the next chapter! Suggestions needed badly!
