Big City Greens and Me

Chapter 6

Cortez Home

In the Cortez apartment, the three siblings were playing video games as their mother was watching videos on her phone and their father was watching them.

Dillon: And looks like the Dill is about to win!

Dally: This isn't even my full power brother!

Molly: Mortals! You won't be able to beat me!

They were all contracting as Frank shakes his head. They all then hear a knock on the door.

Dally: Dillon go get it.

Dillon: And lose to you, never!

Dally then smacks the controller out his hands before combing him into an oblivion. She whooped before being attacked by Molly as Dillon got up and opened the door seeing the Greens standing outside.

Dillon: Oh, what's up dudes?

Bill: Um, Dillon, w-were having a slight dilemma.

Dillon: Ok spit it out.

Bill: Well, um, how am I supposed to say this.

Cricket: Gramma kicked us out so we decided to come over to see if you can let us stay here.

Dillon: Wait, why would she kick you guys out?

Tilly: She said something about needing some peace and quiet.

Dillon: Hm, must be since she's been alone for so long that she must've missed her old life.

Bill: So is it alright if we stay here for a little while?

Dillon: Sure dude, my family won't mind. Come in.

He invites them in, seeing Dally sadly on the ground as Molly cheered.

Molly: Haha, I win!

Dally: Ugh.

Dillon: Hey, guys!

His family looked over to see the Greens.

Dillon: This is the family that I've been hanging around with. They need a place to say if you don't mind.

Josey: Of course honey, we dont mind, right Frank?

Frank didn't say anything as he got up and walked up to Bill as they both looked at each other.

Frank: Billy Boy..

Bill: Frankenstein…

Kids/Josey: Who is what now?

Frank: Been a while old friend.

Bill: Yeah, you've gotten a lot taller and buffer.

Frank: Oh, Billy Boy, get in here!

They both give each a hug as everyone just stares.

Cricket: What the Hilly heck is going on around here?!

Bill and Frank end their hug and turn to their families.

Bill: Cricket, me and Frank used to be good old friends back in the day.

Frank: Yup, we were doing good until I had to move away.

Dillon then looked and had stars in his eyes.

Dillon: So the day I came to the Green was the day I got to reunite old friends. I was destined to bring back two old friends.

Dally: And you watch too much anime.

The Greens just looked confused as Frank chuckled.

Frank: Still not knownin' a lot Billy Boy.

Bill chuckled as the two families all sat in the living room.

Frank: So you need a place to stay awhile, huh?

Bill: Yeah, my Ma kinda kicked us out for a little.

Josey: Oh stay as long as you need. We have guest rooms upstairs.

Bill: Well thank you Miss.

Josey: Just call me Josey.

Frank clicked his tongue as the Greens wanted to claim their rooms. When they enter they see that they were huge.

Cricket: Whoa this room is huge.

Cricket and Tilly started jumping on the bed when Bill grabbed them.

Bill: Kids! We don't want to make a mess of the place. They invited us here to stay so as not to make a mess.

As he says that the kids aren't in the room. In the living room they see Dillon and Dally playing video games again.

Cricket: What is this box thing?

He chews on it before being pulled off by Dillon.

Dillon: No Crickster. This is a video game, the Claymation 5!

Tilly: What a video game?

Dally: You don't know what a video game is!

Cricket: No we didn't have any of these back in the country.

Dillon grabbed his shoulders and looked him dead in the eye.

Dillon: We have to fix this.

Dillon and Cricket were now playing video games as Dally and Tilly sat behind them.

Cricket: Wait where's Molly!

Dally: She has an early bedtime because she has stuff to do tomorrow.

Tilly: Like what?

Dillon and Dally look up and in there as they get a flashback of Molly doing ballet dancing while juggling bowling balls on a unicycle in a tiger pit. They then stop their flashback.

Dillon/Dally: Stuff.

The Green kids looked at each other and strug. With Frank, Bill, and Josey they were having some friendly chit chat.

Frank: So were old Rogue.

Bill flinched when he heard that name.

Josey: Rogue?

Frank: Oh Rouge was the ruff and tuff of our little group. This guy got with her and I'm curious where she is.

Frank looked down in sadness as his hat covered his eyes.

Bill: S-She is not here with us.

Frank gasped surprised.

Frank: She's dead?!

Bill: Nonononono! She's not dead, she's just not with us right now.

Frank held his hand to his heart as he started breathing heavily.

Frank: Oh thank god! I thought Rouge was somehow dead.

Bill: She's in jail.

Frank stared at him before flopping on the ground unconscious.

Josey: Oh Frank.

On the kids side of things the boys were still playing as the girls were now just talking. Tilly was staring at Dillon who was laughing a little as Cricket and him beat a boss in their game. Dally noticed before a smug grin formed before leaning in on Tilly.

Dally: So Tilly, how do you feel for Dillon?

Tilly jumped a little and started blushing a little as she tried to keep her composure.

Tilly: O-Oh h-h-he's a s-swell guy WHICH I can call my friend.

Dally: Uh-hu, right….

They all then hear a thump come from one of the windows.

Dillon: Ugh is it that Merilyn again because for the eight time I didn't destroy the kart!

Cricket: Wait, you did what now?

Dillon put a finger to his mouth.

Dillon: Not important.

They all then hear a squeak and a scream from Molly's room as she comes running in the living room.

Molly: There's a monster in my room!

Frank: For the last time Molly the stuff toy Aunt Fraya gave you isn't possessed.

Molly: It is and I know it is but that's not the point there's an actual monster in my room.

Cricket then comes into fray with a smug grin.

Cricket: Don't worry your little head Molly. Old Cricket will fix up all your problems.

Dillon: This is gonna go from bad to worst.

Everyone walks up stairs to Molly's room. Cricket scratches his overalls.

Cricket: Don't worry family and Cortezs I'll get this monster out in a jiffy.

Bill: Cricket, don't do this. It may just be a toy in their- and he's already in.

Cricket was searching through the room when he heard a squeak come from behind him.

Cricket: Who's that?

Another squeak comes from out of nowhere.

Cricket: Show yourself!

He then picks up a pillow.

Cricket: I'm armed!

He backs up until he bumps into someone and screams to the ground.

Cricket: Please! Don't eat me! I'm too chewy.

Dillon: Dude it's me.

Dillon came out of the shadows with the rest of the guys. Cricket sighed before getting up.

Cricket: I-I wasn't scared a bit. That was just a test.

Dillon rolled his eyes when they all heard another squeak and Cricket jumped into Dillon's arms. Then out comes a tiny little gerbil.

Tilly: Aww, it's just a little mouse.

Dally: I think that's a gerbil.

Cricket was still holding on Dillon as he chuckled and Dillon dropped him.

Cricket: Wasn't scared at all.

Josey: That's weird we never had a mouse or gerbil problem before.

That is when several more gerbils start filling out of the room and everyone screams.

Frank: What is going on?!

They all then hear a snicker from the window. Dillon opens it and from outside he sees Alice in all black clothing.

Dillon: Mrs. Green?

Alice almost lost her balance before grabbing onto the rope she was hanging in.

Alice: Oh Dillon, how are you doing?

Dillon: Great, why are you hanging from the roof?

Dally then pops up.

Dally: And why are you wearing all black?

Molly then comes in.

Molly: Why are there all these little things in my room?

Tilly then comes in with a few gerbils in her arms.

Tilly: It's not even my birthday.

Bill: Yeah, Ma, it's not even Tilly's birthday.

Alice sighs and looks at the two families.

Alice: 'Cause I missed ya, that's why! I thought I was happier before the family moved in, but the truth is, it was lonely and quiet. And I'd rather not go back to that. I'm glad you're livin' with me now. Will you come home?

Bill: Nope.

Cricket: Tilly: Whaaaa?

Cricket: HEARTLESS!

Dillon: Now that is just WRONG.

Bill: Were like spending time with Dillon's family and they invited us in for little bit so were staying but you can join us if you like Ma.

Alice: That'd be wonderful.

Bill: Good. Now get in here, you're makin' me nervous.

He helps her in and when she enters she sees Frank standing in front of her.

Alice: Well I be, Frankenstein. Been awhile since I see you.

Frank: How you doing Mrs. Green?

Alice: Doin' fine sonny great to see you again.

She then turns to Dillon as he has a gerbil on his head.

Alice: I knew their was something familiar about you boy.

Dillon: I'm just a guy with many secrets Mrs. Green.

Alice laughs a little.

Alice: Like father like son eh.

Everyone laughs as they clear out of the room.

Cricket: Hey Gramma, you want a complimentary hamster?

Gramma: No, boy, I brought them here. You're welcome.

The End

Speed: Now that the end of that.

Lizzy: 1,500 chapter, heh. Not but I'd seen better.

Speed: Well you better be ready for some goat snakin when Tilly get her goat in…

Tilly's Goat
