Chapter 2: Trouble
The two ran back to the pile of leaves they were raking before they left and saw Benson waiting there with his clip board.
"Crap dude! He's here!" said the mad blue jay
"It's fine I have a plan!" said the raccoon.
"Since when do your plans ever work?" said Mordecai.
"Just trust me on this one! Listen, we'll run quickly and silently in the two leaf piles and we'll pop out of them and act like we've been here the whole time!" said the enthusiastic raccoon.
"That's the most stupid plan I've ever heard! But I guess we can try it." said the 6 foot tall bird.
Rigby smirked at his own intelligence and said "Okay on 3 we run quietly okay? 1.…..2.….3!". The two friends ran to the leaf piles successfully and waited.
"Where are those two slackers! I knew they would go over time! When they get here they are SO FIRED!" said their mad boss Benson.
The two giggled in the leaves until Rigby jumped out and yelled "SURPRISE!" leading Mordecai to summersault out and stand up to see Benson was enraged.
"You two are the worse liars! I was here the whole time and I heard your plan! Starting now I will give you a big list of work that needs to be done here!" said Benson.
"Whaaaaaat? We were here the whole time!" exclaimed Rigby.
"No you weren't! I was here the whole time you idiot!" said an even more mad Benson.
Mordecai sighed as he saw the two argue so he sighed again and said "Okay look, we weren't here the whole time I admit it! But c'mon dude! We were only how many minutes late?" Rigby's mouth was wide open hearing Mordecai speak.
"You were 6 minutes late!" Benson retorted.
"See it's only 6 minutes!' said Mordecai
"Yeah Benson! You don't have to get so mad about it!" added Rigby.
Benson's hands were clenching in fists and the gumballs in his head were turning a deep red. "UGH! If you want to be smart then I'll give you stuff to be smart about!" He yelled while giving them a 3 foot list of chores. "Get this done by tomorrow or YOU'RE FIRED!" he yelled again.
"Benson! You don't understand! We have a Fist Pump & Brain Explosion concert to go to tomorrow!" exclaimed the raccoon.
"Dude! Shut up!" said Mordecai while punching Rigby's arm.
Benson turned around and smirked at Mordecai and Rigby. "Oh my gosh really! Brain Explosion AND Fist Pump?" said the sarcastic gumball machine. "Well now that you say that maybe I should….GIVE YOU MORE WORK!" yelled the angry boss.
"No!" said the raccoon and blue jay in sync.
"That's what I thought now get back to work or YOU'RE FIRED!" said Benson while walking off.
Mordecai and Rigby stood there staring at each other until Rigby tackled him causing a fight in the leaves.
"This is your fault!" yelled Rigby
"My fault? How is it my fault?" said Mordecai fighting off Rigby
"It's ALL your fault! If you weren't staring at Margaret too much instead of drinking your coffee we wouldn't be in this problem!" argued Rigby.
"Hey! Its not all my fault! If you were watching the time we would've been on time not 6 minutes late!" yelled Mordecai.
"STOP TALKING!" screamed Rigby as he made his way to bite Mordecai's left wing.
"Ow! Dude! Cut it out! Lets stop fighting and get this work done!" said the bird in pain.
"mmkay" said the raccoon still having a grip on his friend's arm.
"First, Get OFF my arm dude it hurts!" said the angry blue jay
"Sorry." replied Rigby as his jaw was letting go of Mordecai
"Okay, lets look at this list…." said Mordecai as he was counting and reading the chores.
"Well what's on the list?" asked Rigby
"DUDE! There's 50 chores to do! And they aren't our favorites either." said the shocked blue jay
"Well what chores do we actually like doing?" Rigby asked
"Hm. Hm. True. So true." replied Mordecai
"Well it looks like we have to mow the lawn, pave the sidewalk, repair the fountain, plant 20 trees, and paint up all the graphitti in the park! Great! And that's not even the whole list! Dude we are so screwed." said the exhausted blue jay
"Just thinking about it makes me tired!" replied the half awake raccoon
"C'mon! We have to make it to the concert tomorrow! Lets start with the hardest task…..paving the sidewalk." said Mordecai
"Okay." Rigby mumbled.
Mordecai and Rigby were sitting on the grass pouring cement from buckets to the future sidewalk. In their minds both of them were regretting going to the coffee shop and not looking at the time. Mordecai was taking the work seriously while Rigby decided to have a little fun by writing in the wet concrete with his trowel after Mordecai would smooth it out. One time he wrote Mordecai+Margaret to make Mordecai mad but he didn't smooth it out. At the end of paving the sidewalk Mordecai stood up to look at his masterpiece then he realized what Rigby had wrote. His eyes widened and his face was getting red by the second. He knew he had to erase it so he kneeled down and began to smooth it out so with revenge in his mind he smirked and wrote Rigby+Eileen.
As he walked towards the lawn mower he heard a loud scream and the clinking of metal against a hard pavement.
"Dude!" yelled Rigby while getting on the lawn mower.
"What?" asked Mordecai
"Stop being such a hole!" replied Rigby
"Whatever dude just shut up and help me mow the grass. We have to do the whole park!" said Mordecai emphasizing the word "whole".
"Ooooooooookaaaaaayyyyy" replied the tired raccoon
The day went by really fast and by the time they finished mowing the grass the sun was beginning to set and the two were drenched in sweat.
"Dude, we are never going to finish all the chores in time for the concert tomorrow!" said the exhausted raccoon.
"Yes we are. We can do it." said Mordecai with no enthusiasm in his voice.
"No way man, it can never get done! Ughhhh! I wish there was better way to do this. Or at least a way we can get out of all the work!" replied Rigby.
"Me too dude." said the tired blue jay
"I can tell you how to losers!" said a voice in the dark
"Muscle man?" asked Mordecai
Then Muscle Man walked out of the dark and punched the both of them in the arms laughing.
"Are you losers going to the concert too?" asked Muscleman
"Yeah but we can't with all this work!" whined Rigby
"Benson's a jerk." Mordecai replied
"I know. He did the same to me and Fives today and we have been working all day." said the short green man.
"Dude this is so lame. Does he hate fist pump or something?" asked Mordecai.
"You know what else is lame?" said Muscleman
"Your mom? Yeah heard it before." said Rigby in a irritated voice before Mordecai punched him in the arm.
"You know I was going to help you guys but never mind." said Muscleman while walking away.
"Dude! Please Help us!" begged Mordecai
"Well actually, I'm fine." said Muscleman
"Dude! We'll give you our computer time for a week!" yelled Mordecai
Then Muscleman stopped in his tracks smiled and said "Make it 2 and you've got a deal!". Rigby spoke up and said "2 weeks, DEAL!". Muscleman turned around and whispered for a long time in Rigby's ear then left to his trailer.
"Dude, what did he say?" asked Mordecai
"Were going to Skip's house for a minute or two." said the raccoon with a big smirk.
