The group waited for the pink and white monkey, bored out of their minds, while Hope gets herself some soda. Suddenly, one of them realizes something once she did leave the room.
"Wait, couldn't we just leave while Hope gets her soda?" Kowloon suggested.
"I don't know," Archer said. "I don't want Hope to get mad with us."
"Come on. She's Hope. How mad she could be?"
"You don't want to know." They heard Sportiflex said, making everyone look at him.
"Oh yeah, there was the time she got mad at you for calling us names, beat you up, and made you our maid for a week." Mighty Ray said.
"You don't have to remind me, please." Sportiflex said. "She can actually get more mad than that, and boy, you don't want to see that look when she does. I'll never ever forget that time."
"Really? What happened?" Alpha Girl ask, sounding very interested in the monkey.
"All I know the only thing that can make her that mad is if you insult her mother."
"Insult her mother?" Mr. NoHands said, confuse.
"Yes. If you do that, she snaps. There was this one time..." Sportiflex suddenly shivered and said, "I'm surprise the guy is still alive."
The Big Green group look at each other with confused looks, then back to Highroller's cousin.
"She can get that mad?" Apetrully said.
"I've only seen it once, and couldn't forget every single detail of it." Sportiflex said with a horrified look on his face.
"There's no way she can be so mad that she could murder someone." Sparky Black said.
"If you're thinking of testing that theory out for yourself, I say don't do it. If you do... It's your funeral. Although, she never actually murder anyone, just beat them up to a really big pulp."
Everyone turn their heads to the direction of the door, seeing a happy Hope holding a bottle of lemon-lime soda. She sat at the couch and said, "So, are you guys ready for the next game?"
Sparky White look at his twin brother, and whisper, "Now's your chance."
Sparky Black gulped, worrying for his life.
"Hey, Hope," Sparky Black said, nervously.
"Yes?" Hope said with a smile on her face, turning her head towards the zebra.
Sparky Black gulped once more and said, "I want you to know that... Your mom is a... failure."
Hope suddenly drop her plastic bottle. Luckily, the bottle was still closed. That smile still on her face.
"What was that?" Hope said.
Her left eye twitched a little.
"You heard me... Your mother is a failure." Sparky Black said.
The lights around them begin to flash off and on as Hope slowly walk towards him with her smile still widen. Sportiflex screamed at the top of his lungs and shouted, "I HAVE TO GET OUT OF HERE!"
But that only made him fall on his face, unable to sit up.
"Why would you think that? You never even met her." Hope said, swinging her tail side to side very slowly.
"Well... She did made you." Sparky Black said.
Hope held the zebra's chin and said, "Let me show you how I feel about that."
Later... (Because I'm trying to keep this T rated) Lin Chung, Kowloon, Mano, Burly, and Hurricane tried to keep Hope away from Sparky Black, who was very beaten up, with Sonia, Alpha Girl, Rosefinch, and Apetrully protecting him.
"I never thought I would actually be protecting a zebra." Alpha Girl said.
"I'LL KILL YOU! I DON'T CARE I MIGHT GET ARREST FOR THIS! I'LL MURDER YOU! I'LL KILL YOU NO MATTER WHAT!" Hope shouted with a very deep voice that you might get from the devil and bright red eyes.
"Why didn't you listen to me!? Now there's nothing to stop her from trying to kill Sparky Black!" Sportiflex shouted.
"What stopped her from killing the other guy?" Harper ask.
"I don't remember. All I remember it was around the time her mom was alive."
Hope suddenly bit Hurricane's hand, making him scream and let her go. This also gave her a chance to overpower the other four into letting her go. Hope pounce towards the zebra, but Apetrully quickly got in front of her and try to get a hold on her.
"Hope, don't do this!" Apetrully said with his arms wrapped around her, trying to make her hold still.
"WHY!? HE DESERVES IT!" Hope shouted, trying to squirm out of his arms.
"No!"
Apetrully squeeze her tighter, holding her closer to him. For some reason, Hope started to calm down as Apetrully let her bury her head into his chest. Slowly, her eyes turn back to their normal pink color.
Sportiflex's eyes widen, then said, "Now that I think about it, I think her mother was the only one who was able to calm her down when she's mad like that."
"You couldn't have said that earlier?!" Sparky Black shouted, then spit out a tooth.
"Hey! Someone getting beaten up distracts me. Also, it was a long time ago!" Sportiflex said.
Apetrully gently pets Hope's head, and whisper in her ear, "It's okay... It's okay... Don't listen to him. He's a mean zebra. He's also very stupid."
"Hey!" Sparky Black shouted.
"Do you want her to try to murder you again?" Sonia said.
"No! I want to live!"
"Can we still play the pocky game?" Hope ask with her voice back to normal.
"Of course." Apetrully said.
Hope felt herself completely calm. Then she realize Apetrully was squeezing her very tightly.
"You can let me go now. I don't feel like murdering Sparky Black right now." Hope said.
"Oh. Sorry..." Apetrully said, quickly letting her go.
Hope walk up to Sparky Black and said, "You live... This time."
Sparky Black gulped as Hope walk back to the couch.
"Now. On with the game." Hope said with her smile back on her face.
"Boy, I never thought anyone can be more angry than Alpha Girl." Mr. NoHands said, making almost everyone shiver at the thought,
"Hey!" Alpha Girl shouted.
