Road Problems
"How did you two air heads talk me into this?" asked Wanda, sitting in the back seat of Lance's jeep.
"We didn't, we just put you in here when you where sleeping." said Pietro, driving happily down the high way.
"Toad, your closer hit him." said Wanda, flopping back on the seat.
". . . ."
"Toad?" asked Wanda.
"I think he's sleeping. . ." said Pietro, poking him.
"Leave me alone." said Todd, turning towards the window.
"Why didn't you take Fred, or Lance? Does Lance even know YOUR driving his jeep?"asked Wanda, angrily.
"He doesn't even know we have it, I just left a note." said Pietro, quietly.
"WHAT!" came Todd and Wanda at the same time.
"He's going to kill us." said Todd, now fully awake.
"Not if we have it back by morning." said Pietro.
"Where exactly are we going?" asked Wanda, turning to Pietro.
"A Party in Canada." said Pietro.
"Do we have money for gas?" asked Todd.
"Yeah, I'm not that stupid." said Pietro.
"Is it in Canadian money?"asked Wanda.
"No, but they except American. . . sometimes." said Pietro.
"Why?" asked Todd.
"Why what?" said Pietro, not really listening.
"Why are we going to Canada for a party?" asked Todd, now looking at Pietro.
"Actually its more of an excuse to speed down country roads." said Pietro.
"Stop the car." said Wanda angrily.
"No. Your not driving, you don't even have a license." said Pietro.
"Yeah, but didn't Toad just go get his last week?" asked Wanda.
"You don't want me to drive, but you'll let swamp breath drive?" asked Pietro, angrily.
"I could push you out the door right now." said Todd, aiming his leg at Pietro.
"Yes, because I know that I for one am safe then. He'd gladly throw you or himself in front of me so I was safe, so as I see it with him, its a win, win situation." said Wanda, hexing the keys to turn off the car.
After a few minutes Todd was driving happily down the road. Pietro was in a very bad mood, to the point of him slamming the glove box. Wanda just watched him in minor amusement. Todd turned on the radio too 'Runaway'. That's when it happened, the glove box door broke.
"Oh no." said Pietro in fear.
"You broke it." said Todd, fighting laughter as Pietro started to freak.
"Pietro stop babbling, the hinges just parted, we can get it fixed easy." said Wanda, as Pietro startled moving his arms around.
"WHERE!" snapped Pietro.
"I can fuse it back together." said Wanda.
After Wanda traded places with Pietro, she hexed the metal pieces back together. After about 40 miles the car started to sputter. The engine knocked a few times, and they pulled into a rest stop drive way.
"Is it the gas?" asked Pietro.
"No, it's the oil, where out." said Wanda, looking at the dash bored.
"Pietro go pick us up some oil." said Todd.
"Why me? Where 40 miles away from any stops and I don't feel like running." said Pietro, laying down.
"Why not." said Wanda.
"My ankle hurts." said Pietro, closing his eyes.
"Well how else are we going to get out of here. If I have to be stuck with you two all night, I'd at least want other people around to ignore you with." said Wanda bitterly.
"Maybe we should call Lance." said Todd.
"That's a great idea, and then he can pick us up in his car, oh wait, we have it!" snapped Pietro.
"Oh shut up." said Wanda.
"Standing up for him?" asked Pietro.
"So what if I am. . . don't hug me." said Wanda, turning towards the smiling Todd.
"Fine, we'll hitch hike." said Pietro, pulling them all out of the car.
"Let's see, three mutant teens, on the middle of the high way, at two in the morning, why do I see something stupid, random, pointless, and weird happening." said Wanda.
"Because a crazy girl controls our life." said Pietro and Todd at once.
After an hour, only three cars had gone by. One was a car of lost clowns, which caused them to pass and one was a very creepy trucker. The other had just passed on by and they where getting sick of it. A yellow BMW was coming up the road.
"That's it, this calls for extreme measures." said Pietro, right before pushing Todd in front of the car.
"Pietro!" said Wanda, hitting Pietro upside the head.
"Ow." said Todd, as the girl came running out of the car, that had bumped into him.
"Are you all right, I'm so sorry, are you hurt, do you need to go to the hospital, I'm Kiki by the way, but you can call Spaz, my friends call me that, well if I had any, they did." said the girl without breathing and talking really fast.
"I thought you where fast on sugar." said Wanda, whispering to Pietro.
"I'm fine, just stunned, hold on a second." said Todd getting up and advancing on Pietro.
"If you need me, I'll be in the bathroom." said Pietro racing towards the bathroom.
"I thought your ankle hurt." said Todd jumping on him before he could run even faster.
"AHH, maniac!" yelled Pietro.
"Hi I'm Wanda, sorry about that. We where just trying to get a tow truck or something." said Wanda, turning to Kiki.
"What's the problem, I'm good at fixing stuff." said the girl very quickly.
AN HOUR LATER
"So then I moved to Hawaii, and it was so awesome for the first week. . ." trailed off Kiki happily.
Todd had been listening to her life story for over a half hour as she drove them into town. Sadly they where very far from any open town. Todd didn't even blink, as the information burrowed into his head. Wanda and Pietro had fallen asleep after ten minutes, but she had taken a liking to him, thus never stop talking to him. It was worse than a hyper Kurt, Pietro, and Pyro in a small closet with him.
"Then my friend Rose, dived off a cliff, it was sad. But her parents insisted we have a happy death party. I don't know why, I mean all they could recover was her head, I mean that is the smallest coffin I had ever seen. Her brother just said to use a shoe box, and I had to talk her parents out of it. . . . Todd?" said Kiki looking at the horror struck teen.
"Uh huh." he said nodding for no apparent reason.
"Well then, after that I met Jackie, she was a good friend, she's in a mental asylum, oh that after I moved to New York. . . ." she was cut off.
"You live in New York?" he asked in fear.
"Yeah, my parents are talking about moving to Bayville." she said happily.
". . . . !" said Todd in fear.
"Hey we live in Bayville." said Pietro with a yawn.
"REALLY! I am so asking my parents to move there." said Kiki happily, as always.
"Hey the house next to ours is for sale." said Pietro.
"Oh My GOSH! I'll tell my parents to look at it tomorrow. THANKS! " said Kiki, taking the address from Pietro.
"No problem." said Pietro happily, and then fearfully at the already furious Todd.
