Teen Titans: The Son of Evil Part 2: Family
Chapter 16: Getting Jobs
It was yet another beautiful morning in Titans Tower. Tory was the last one to get up. He rubbed his eyes until they were wide open. He was soon got out of his sister's room, since he sleeps on the small sofa, while his sister still sleeps in her bed. He was asleep in his white boxors and a black male night shirt. He quickly got his normal cloths, you know, the white t-shirt, the black tank top that he wears over his white t–shirt, and his blue shorts. Then he walked towards the shower area. Inside were two areas, the boy area, with Robin's shower, Beastboy's shower, and two guess showers. And the other side showed the girls area, that had Starfire's shower, Raven's shower, Terra's shower, and a guess shower. He could hear that everyone was in their own showers, except for Cyborg, and Crane was already done with his shower, so Tory made himself comfortable in the last guess shower for the guys. He turned the nob and water started to poured down on him, it started cold first, but it quickly got warm. He was enjoying himself in the shower so much that he started to sing.
" I'm a Dude, He's a Dude, She's Dude, Cause we're all Dudes, Hey! I'm a Dude, He's a Dude, She's a Dude, Cause we're all Dudes, YEAH!" he sang for five minutes before he was done. And as soon as he was done drying himself, combing his hair, brushing his hair, and putting his normal cloths on, he ran down stairs like a maniac for breakfast.
"Hey Star face, What's for breakfast?" he asked out at Starfire.
" It's one of my favorite Tory, behold, Zorcaberries!" Starfire said as she laid a jar of Zorcaberries in front of the others.
"WHAHOOO!" squealed out Rapidfire in delight. He loves Zorcaberries as much as his older sisters do.
"Uh actually Starfire, we're not really not that hungry." said Robin, Beastboy, Cyborg, Raven, and Terra at the same time.
"Jynx, you all each owe me a soda!" called out Beastboy in victory.
"Darn." said the everyone except Starfire, Rapidfire, Crane, and Tory. Then Jynx entered the main room.
"Did someone called my name?" she asked.
"Well I guess it wouldn't hurt to try." Crane said as he took a single berry out of the jar.
"I bet they're good." Said Tory as he took a hand full of berries from the jar. Rapidfire was already eating some.
At the same time, Both Crane and Tory put the berries in their mouth and they went down their throats and down into their guts. Suddenly they both smiled. The Zorcaberries tasted like every berry on Earth fused together. Their stomachs felt fuffy, and their taste buds felt like they went to heaven with a side trip to paradise.
But then Crane, Rapidfire, and Tory looked at each other and they all frowned. Then the fight for Starfire's Zorcaberries.
"GIVE ME THAT!"
"IT'S MINE!"
"I SAW IT FIRST!"
"DON'T MAKE ME HURT YOU!"
All three of them eat and argued until the entire jar was empty. The three younger brothers were now satisfy, but Tory now got himself a stomachache for eating the Zorcaberries too fast. Then he struggle over to his older sister.
"Terra... bad...pain...in...my...gut." Tory painfully said. Terra just smiled as she then picked him up laid him on her lap and started tickling his stomach. It made him feel better. And his stomach is his ticklish spot.
"There, does your belly feel better?" Terra happily said as she put her brother back down.
"It does now, Thank you." he responded, then ran back to Crane and Rapidfire.
"So Rapidfire, since the others explained to us about the holidays, and now that Christmas is coming soon and even my birthday is coming this month on the 20th, what did you got for your sister?" But Rapidfire flew straight towards the others and yelled out that Crane's birthday is in December 20th. "Idiot." Crane said to himself.
"I know what I'm going to get for my sister." said Tory from behind Crane. "I'm going to give her, her favorite butterfly hair barrette. But it's broken, and I don't have any money to pay to fix it. And fixing it is expensive, because this hair barrette was made from a rare violet crystal." he explained as he pulled his sister's favorite butterfly hair barrette out of his pocket and showed it to crane. "But please don't tell Terra." he begged.
"I won't and besides, I want to get my sister and Jynx each a special blue jewel necklace, but I only have enough money to buy one, and I want to get each of them one." responded Crane.
" Maybe we could get quick jobs!" Tory shouted out happily.
Crane only gave a sigh as he then said "Well its worth a shot. Lets go."
"Everyone, me and Tory are going out." Crane said as Tory put on a gray jacket. As soon as they both left the main room, Raven pulled out a some needles and an unfinished black scarf and continue knitting.
The Streets of Jump City With Crane and Tory.
"Now how are we going to find a job around here in this time of the year?" asked Crane as Tory sat on his shoulders. It was starting to snow in Jump city and they could feel snowflakes landing and melting in their hair.
"How about that place? It's called Burger-a-Go-Go." said Tory as he pointed at a fast-food restaurant that was named Burger-a Go-Go. ( My mother gave me that idea, so thank my mom.)
"Well at least you have a good sight." said Crane as both of them flew towards the building. In the window, there was a sign that said 'Help Wanted'. They both went inside and asked to see the manager. Then the manager named 'Mr. Weird' walked up to greet them.
"So you two want a job here?" said Mr. Weird.
"Ah yes please, and our names are Crane and Tory." responded both Crane and Tory at the same time.
"Very well, you're both hired. Mr. Tory, you'll be working the cash register, and Mr. Crane, you'll be doing deliveries, and you may to have pitch in and do some counter work."
"YIPPEEE!" screamed out Tory.
"Now let me introduce you two to the other employees. Everyone, come out here, we have two new members!" Mr. Weird called out as the other employees showed up."
"Crane. Tory. This is Jimmy, Sheen, Carl, Bobby, Sara, and Blackfire. (BUM, BUM, BUM!)"
"Hi there Craney." said Blackfire happily as she waved her fingers at Crane.
"WWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!" Screamed Crane.
At the end of the day.
"Okay let's see, five dollars an hour, six hours a day, five days a week. I should be able to buy the gifts in, uh...Oh, Another Lifetime." Crane hopelessly said as he was stacking some french fries baskets in piles.
"What's your problem?" asked Tory, gorging himself in soda, again.
"I screwed up in my first delivery, and Mr. Weird said that if it happens again... I'm fired." Crane complained.
"Boy, You must really suck." said Tory as he walked up to Crane. Crane kneeled down and gave a death glare at Tory.
"You see, right about now. I'd slap you in the head, but I'm not quite sure that your brain would understand the concept of pain." said a really now angry Crane. Tory just then backed off. Crane used a pay phone to call the Titans and tell them that they got jobs and that they might not be back in a while. Then a couple of people walked in. They look like biker gangsters. And the leader is none other than Johnny Rancid.
"MAN! This place is a dump. What kind of maggot would you consider eating here?" sad Johnny Rancid. Then all of the employees came up and surrounded Crane and Tory to support them.
"Welcome to Good Burger, Home of the Good Burger, can I take your order?...Uh I mean, Welcome to Burger-a-Go-Go." said Tory.
"Hey check it guys, look, it's the witch's brother." said Johnny, pointing at Crane.
"Hey look it Tory, it's Johnny Idiot!" said Crane with a comeback."
"Oh, nice to meet you Johnny Idiot. I'm Tory." said Tory.
"And I'm Blackfire." also said Blackfire.
"Well Tory. Well Blackfire. You Both better watch your butts man!" insulted Rancid.
"Okay." said both Tory and Blackfire as they both tried to look at their own butts.
"Look, you have a business for being here?" asked Crane.
"Yes I do. I thought that you losers want to know, that soon, that our restaurant is going to out your restaurant and the world out of business. In more ways than one." said Rancid.
As For Tory and Blackfire, They still weren't able to watch their own butts. So they decided to watch Each other's butts.
"Look Rancid. You can either order something, or you can get out of here." said Crane, starting to get mad.
"Fine I will!" And with that, Johnny Rancid and his goons left the building.
"I'm so dizzy." said Blackfire, trying to hold her head in place. Then Tory threw his right arm around Crane's shoulder. Tory was even more dizzy, than Blackfire.
"Uh, I give up. There's no way, a guy, and a girl, can watch their own butts. Whooh!
