Meela: Alexa! Alexa! Alexa, Alexa, Alexa, Alexa!
She came running through the huge living room, dodging all the expensive furniture, blasted through the giant dining room, running and screaming down the hall, up the brick stairs, down another hall where each of our rooms were and threw open my oak door. Ardeth and Imhotep were close behind her.
Alexa: What! What's the matter!
Meela: Your . . . gasp . . sister . . gasp . . . .
Alexa: W-what . . what . . about her? Is she ok! What happened!

Alexa: WHAT! But . . but, b-but . . the house is a wreck. looks across her room
Imhotep: Well, if they just stay in your room and not let them see the rest of the house then it'll be ok.
Meela: Your room is so sparkly clean!
Ardeth: Alexa's right though. If there are coming over in a few hours, then maybe we should get the house ready.
Imhotep: I'll start with Alexa's room!
Meela: But . . it's not dirty . . .
Imhotep: Shhh! I know . . . .
Ardeth: Ok . . . first off, everyone cleans his or her rooms first . . . obviously. . Alexa doesn't have to clean hers . . . so . . she gets to go get fire wood. evil yet innocent grin
Alexa: Alright . . . it's a deal . . . Imhotep, please, please try to clean up your room this time. Do you remember what happened 3 months ago?
Imhotep: Ummm . . . no?
Meela: Remember when all those cockroaches came out of your bedroom for leaving that pizza in there for a week?
Imhotep: Heh-heh . . . oh yeah . . evil grin
Ardeth: Meela, after your done with your room clean and dust the living room. Don't forget to wipe off the TV. Imhotep after your done under breath If you ever get done . . You need to clean the Dining room, including cleaning off the table.

Ardeth: Alexa . . . . . yeah . . . never mind.

Ardeth: After I'm done with my room . . . I am going to clean the Kitchen . . .
