After the discovery of Adam's basketball skills, Sam tried her hand at cooking to see if she had any cooking skills. In hopes of making the best meal Mutant X had ever tasted, Sam watched many cooking shows and learn as much as possible. The day came and Sam hoped she was prepared to serve Sanctuary.
She gathered all the proper ingredients and cooking utensils. Wash this, rinse that. Chop this, slice that. Boil this, fry that. With a spice of this and a splash of that, she was done. Sam had made sure no one entered the kitchen while and after she cooked. But everyone didn't care. They were delighted especially Adam because it wasn't their turn to cook. Sam set the table and made sure everyone was sitting at the dinner table.
"It looks delicious," Jesse. "But is it edible?"
"What did you say?!" asked Sam with a fireball in her hand.
"Uh, I meant, who's brave enough to try it first?"
"WHAT?!!!" shouted Sam and the fireball in her hand grew bigger.
"Don't burn Sanctuary down," warned Adam.
"Hmm," said Sam in deep thought.
"Oh #$!" said Adam. "Me and my big mouth." Everyone's head turned in the direction of Adam in a snap, with their jaws dropped.
"What…what did you just say, Adam?" asked everyone staring at him.
"Um, uh, uh, I said 'oh that sucks' too quickly," smiled Adam nervously.
"Oh, okay…"said everyone. They didn't pester him anymore about it because, after all, this is Adam.
Everyone looked at each other, trying to dare the other to eat first.
"Enough of this nonsense!" said Shalimar. "Brennan, you go first."
"Hey," Brennan complained. "Why me?"
"Maybe we should ask Adam to see what we're going to do about it," suggested Emma.
"Oh, huh?" asked Adam, who hadn't been paying much attention. "I'm on with Shalimar's side."
"Thanks, Adam," smiled Shalimar. "Come on, Brennan. You go first."
Brennan whined and tried to complain but everyone stared at him, in a way threatening him. He took one last look at everyone and said," It was nice knowing you." Before he took a bite of some food.
We expected him to choke or fall on the floor holding his neck making gagging noises. We watched him and studied him.
"What am I?" asked Brennan. "Some kind of lab rat?"
"No," said everyone. "So how does the food taste?"
"It's delicious," replied Brennan.
"What?! Why didn't you tell us? Remember, you're supposed to test the food!"
"Well, I just thought that since you're treating me this way. I might as well take advantage of your assumptions."
Everyone started digging in before Brennan finished his sentence. They forgot all about the poison it might contain and just enjoyed themselves. After the meal, when Adam and Jesse were carrying the dirty dishes back to the kitchen. We heard plates breaking and everyone but Sam rushed to the kitchen. The plates were dropped due to the shock. The kitchen was a mess. Everything was everywhere. The kitchen looked like it had just barely survived a war.
"SAM!!!" Adam yelled at the top of his lungs and in the sternest voice we've ever heard. "Get your sorry butt in here!"
Sam walked into the kitchen and asked Adam what was the matter.
"What is the matter you ask?!" said Adam. "Look around you."
"Oh, I never noticed before," said Sam.
Everyone stared at Sam and said chuckling, "You won't be able to get out of this one as easily as other trouble you cause."
Sam apologized and admitted she did the damage, but not on purpose. She made a deal with Adam.
"If you don't ground me, like, forever, then I'll clean up the kitchen and repair it with some help…" said Sam looking at Brennan and Jesse.
"Uh, um, I'm suddenly very busy," said Brennan.
"Yeah, yeah. I just remembered something I forgot to do," said Jesse.
They both turned to walk away but stopped when I said, "Hey! Are you guys or are you chicken?!"
"We're not chicken!" said both of them together. "Fine, we'll do it! Because what you said is not true!"
Sam and I smiled at each other, then I whispered with an evil tone, "There's your help."
"Thanks," replied Sam.
