Chapter 10: Home Invaders
The ride to school was clam but quite. Thomas sits in the front with hood on as they take a turn to the left heading into the school drop off and pick up area. The car came to a stop next to the curb. "Alright you guys ready?" Peabody asked. Thomas looked at his father and chuckled. "Ready as I'll be," Thomas answered. "I'm ready Mr. Peabody!" Sherman cheered. "You go on ahead Sherman and then I'll walk to class," Thomas said looking in the rear view mirror. Sherman nodded as he opened his door and got out of the car and close the door. Thomas then sighed as he looked at Peabody. "What's on your mind?" Peabody asked. Thomas chucked. "I'm sure if I can do this," Thomas answered. Peabody nodded as he puts his paw on Thomas's shoulder. "You can do this I believe in you," Peabody said with a smile. Thomas then puts his hand on the door of the car. "Okay," Thomas simply said as he was stepping out of the car.
"Wait I have something for you," Peabody said as he grabbed a small white box and handed to Thomas. Thomas grabbed the small white box and opened it. Inside the box was a blue iPhone 5c. Thomas was shocked by this. "What's this for?" Thomas asked looking up at Peabody. "If you need me today just give me a call or text me," Peabody explained. Thomas nodded in response as he noticed something else in the small box. "A dog whistle?" Thomas asked as he took out the whistle and blew on it. Peabody then covered his ears in pain. "Oh sorry," Thomas said as he puts the whistle on his pocket. Peabody then shook himself off from the whistle. "I gave Sherman one when he was seven and I thought you needed one," Peabody explained.
Thomas nodded. "Thanks dad," Thomas said with a smile. Peabody smiled back at him. "Alright dad I'll see you later," Thomas said as he waved good bye and started walking towards the school. Peabody watched both of his sons head into the school and then drove off to do something meetings. "You got one too?" Sherman asked. Thomas pulled out the dog whistle and showed Sherman. "What This?" Thomas asked. Sherman nodded. "Yeah I got a S on mine," Sherman said as they walked along. Thomas looked closely at his. "Looks like I got T on mine," Thomas said with smiled. Sherman smiled as he pulled out his whistle. "Can I see yours?" Thomas asked. Sherman nodded as he gave his to Thomas. Thomas took Sherman's dog whistle and his dog whistle and puts them next to each other. "Well it's looks great," Thomas said as he handed Sherman back his dog whistle. Thomas then walked Sherman to his class before heading to his own class.
"I'll see you later okay Sherman?" Thomas said standing next to the door of Sherman's classroom. "Okay I'll see you later," Sherman said as he waved goodbye to his brother. Thomas nodded as he walked off yo his own classroom. The day went off as a good day for once. It was now time for lunch and Thomas was walking alone heading for he lunch room to meet up with Sherman. Thomas turn the corner heading for the lunch room but then stopped on his tracks. "Hey Peabody! You didn't think I was done with you didn't you?" Drake shouted as he started walking towards Thomas. "Shit," Thomas said as he turned around and started running to the other side of the school. Drake started running after Thomas as soon as Thomas started running away.
Thomas knew that there was another way into the cafeteria on the other side of the school and that's where he was heading. "Get back here Peabody!" Drake shouted through the halls. Thomas ran inside the cafeteria with Drake behind him. Everyone started getting out of the way as Thomas and Drake ran inside the cafeteria. "Look Drake I don't want to fight you!" Thomas said getting behind a table. "You cost me out of school suspension Peabody! And I want you out for good!" Drake shouted as he slams his hands on the table. Just then Drake was then hit in the head with an apple. Drake turned around with anger in his eyes. "Who did that!" Drake shouted. The room was silent as Drake scanned the room to see who through the apple at him.
"Leave my brother alone!" Sherman spoke up. "You throw that Apple at me?" Drake said pointing at Sherman. "Damn it Sherman I can handle this!" Thomas spoke up. "Shut up Peabody!" Drake shouted. Thomas the shook his head and puts his hands behind his head. Drake turned and looked back at Sherman. "I guessing two Peabody's out of this school would be so much better. And the first Peabody gets hurt first," Drake said as he was walking over to Sherman. Sherman scared out of his mind stood there trying to be strong for his brother even if he was going to get hurt. Thomas couldn't let Sherman get hurt because of him, so he had an idea. Thomas a grabbed a carton of milk and climb over the table and running past Drake smacking him in the back of the head and shouted "Food fight!" Everyone joined in and started throwing food.
Thomas then grabbed Sherman's hand and ran out of the cafeteria. The rest of the day went great. Thomas and Sherman were not blamed for what happened in the cafeteria and everything was fine. After school was over Sherman and Thomas both waited outside of the school for Mr. Peabody to pick them up. Thomas's phone then went off in his pocket. "Thomas. I'm sorry that I won't be able to pick you guys up right now I have a three more meetings to go to but I some money on the counter for you guys to order a pizza while I'm gone and I trust you to walk home with Sherman," Peabody said in the text. Thomas texted him back and said that it was fine to walk home. "Well looks like we're walking home," Thomas said as he grabbed his backpack. Sherman nodded as he grabbed his backpack and then they were off.
While walking home Thomas and Sherman both talked. "Hey Sherman I wanted to tell you thank you for what happened at lunch," Thomas said as he Sherman walked along. "It's no problem but what you did was more cooler," Sherman said a smile. Thomas chuckled. "To tell the truth I've always wanted to start a food fight," Thomas said with a laugh. Sherman started as they took a left heading into the building of their home. "So Mr. Peabody has some meetings tonight?" Sherman asked as they got into the elevator. "Yeah he said he has about three of them," Thomas said as he press the button to go up to the penthouse. "But even through we're home alone we get to order a pizza while doing our homework," Thomas said with a smile. The elevator doors opened to a shocking scene. The penthouse was broken into. Thomas and Sherman both walked into the living room with everything shattered. "Sherman stay here I'm going check the rooms and call the police," Thomas said as he pulled out his phone and call 911. "911 what is you emergency?" Asked the lady on the other side of the line. "Hi my house has been broken into," Thomas said as he checked all the rooms.
"Okay sir can you tell where you live?" Asked the lady on the other line. Thomas was about to tell her where he lived until he walked into the living room. A man dress in black with a black hood over his head was holding Sherman while covering his mouth so he couldn't scream for help. "Shit!" Thomas shouted dropping the cell phone. Then everything went black. Thomas woke up sitting in a chair all tied up. Sherman was next to him tied up with tape over his mouth knocked out. "Sherman," Thomas whispered. Sherman didn't move. "Sherman," Thomas said again. Sherman still didn't move or look up at Thomas. "Damn it," Thomas said as he looked around the living room.
The two home invaders walked back into the living room with two bags filled stuff through out the house. "Hey Jake look! The older one is awake," said one of the home invaders. Jake took off his hood as he walked over to Thomas. "Well Jason looks like this kid right here gets to see the whole show," Jake said with a smile. Jason took off his hood as he walked over to Sherman. Jason then took off Sherman's tape off his mouth. Sherman woke up from the pain and started to cry. "Oh shut up you little punk!" Jason said about to hit Sherman's head. "Hey leave him alone!" Thomas spoke up, Jake then took out his knife and puts it against Thomas's throat. "No please don't hurt my brother please!" Sherman cried out. "It's gonna be okay Sherman. It's gonna be okay," Thomas said as Jake held his head.
"Yes little Sherman it's gonna be fine when we get rid of your brother," Jake said with chuckle. Jason started laughing as he held a knife against Sherman's cheek. "Just stop! let my brother go and just take me," Thomas said trying to stay calm. Sherman started to breath harder while tears were falling from his face. Jake and Jason looked at each other. "Alright," Jason said as he cuts Sherman's rope. Jason then grabs Sherman by the hair and drags him over to a closet. "Stay here boy!" Jason said shutting the door. Jake then cuts Thomas's rope and pushes him on the floor. "Stay here. We have a few more things to go get in this penthouse," Jake said as he kicked Thomas in the side.
Jake and Jason both left the living room and headed into Mr. Peabody's room. Thomas held his left side before grabbing the TV remote. Thomas programmed the remote to call 911 and send them to their house. Thomas then spoke into the remote and turned on lock down mode. "Lock down," Thomas whispered into the remote. The windows and emergency lights all came on. "What the hell is going on?" Jake asked. "I don't know," Jason asked as they both walked into the living room. "Hey where did that kid go?" Jason asked looking around the room. Thomas had grabbed one of Peabody's golf clubs and smack both Jake and Jason in the back of their heads. "Right here!" Thomas shouted as the both fell to the ground. Thomas then ran over to the closet that Sherman was put in.
Thomas opened the door and found a crying Sherman in a ball. "Sherman!" Thomas simply said as he got down on his knees. Sherman jump up and hugged Thomas and cried in his shoulders. "It's okay it's over," Thomas said hugging Sherman back. "THOMAS!" Sherman shouted as he saw Jake stand up about to stab Thomas in the back. Thomas then push Sherman back into the closet and roll backwards grabbing the golf club and started swinging at Jake. "No one hits me and gets away with it!" Jake said as he was swinging his knife at Thomas. "And no one hurts my brother and gets away with it!" Thomas shouted as he hits Jake in the face making hit the wall. Jake then fell to the ground knocked out. "finally," Thomas as he dropped the golf club and headed for the closet again.
Thomas turned the corner to get to Sherman but came to a bad surprise. Just as Thomas turned the corner, Thomas was stabbed in his right shoulder by Jason. "That's for hitting my brother with a golf club!" Jason said as he ran off and picked up Jake and headed for the elevators. Thomas stood next to wall and pulled out the knife that was in his shoulder. "Ahhh!" Thomas screamed in pain as he throw the knife on the ground. "Sherman!" Thomas shouted as he held his shoulder while blood was coming out. Sherman came out of the closet and ran over to his brother in shock. "Thomas!" Sherman said getting down on his knees. "Yo... you... need to turn off the lock down," Thomas said trying to save his energy. Sherman nodded as he grabbed the remote and turned off the lock down.
Two Hours Later
Peabody ran into the hospital in search of his kids. Peabody up to the next nurses station and found Sherman sitting in chair holding himself. "Sherman!" Peabody spoke up. Sherman looked up in tears as he ran up to his father. "Mr. Peabody!" Sherman shouted as he hugged his father. Peabody and Sherman both got on their knees as they hugged while they both cried. Peabody looks at Sherman and puts his paw on Sherman's cheek. "You stay here i'll go see if I can go find Thomas," Peabody said in a soft voice. Sherman nodded as he stood and walked over to his chair. Peabody then walked to the nurse station and asked for some help. "Hello ma'm I need to find my son Thomas Peabody," Peabody asked.
"He's in that room over there," The nurse said pointing at the end of the hall. Peabody nodded and thanked her before walking down the hall. Peabody walked into the room seeing his son with a bandage over his shoulder. "Oh god," Peabody said as he walked closer to Thomas. Thomas turned and looked at his father. "Hey dad," Thomas said. Peabody got on the other side of Thomas's bed and looked closer at his son's bandage. "Thomas I'm so sorry I wasn't home I... god what kind of a father am I?" Peabody said turning away and looking out the window. "Dad this wasn't your fault," Thomas said sitting up. Peabody turned and looked at Thomas. "How can this not be? I shouted picked you and Sherman up and not have gone to the meeting," Peabody said putting his paw on Thomas's hand. "Dad we didn't know this was ever going to happen," Thomas said looking into his fathers eyes. "I know I still should have just stayed with you and Sherman," Peabody said as tears fell from eyes.
"Dad I think right now you need to be with Sherman. He's pretty shaking up from this. You and Sherman can stay the night in my room tonight. The doctor said I can go home tomorrow but please take care of Sherman right now," Thomas said patting Peabody's paw. Peabody then nodded his head. "Thank you for keep him safe from those sick people," Peabody said giving Thomas a hug. "Your welcome. I don't know how you could live with out us." Thomas said as he and Peabody broke their hug. Peabody looked into his son's different colored eyes. "I couldn't," Peabody simply said as he started walking out of Thomas's room. Once Peabody was out of the room, he stood next to the door and started to cry. Sherman noticed his dad was crying next to Thomas's door. Sherman then walked over to his father and gave him a hug. Peabody just hugged him back and they hugged for the longest time before headed into Thomas's room together.
