At Home-

Arenas walked home from school. The day of a 6th grader was long and hard. And he really didn't want to do his homework or go back home. The home that his crazy family lived in. He opened the door and entered the house. He closed the door and turned around. When he turned around, he saw Phyrra with a grin on her face and a rubber ducky in her hand. Not only did Arenas not want to go home to his crazy family and do his homework, he also did not want to take a bath. "Hi Arenas. How was school?" Phyrra asked.

"G-Good." Arenas muttered as he just stood there nervously.

Phyrra raised the hand that the duck was in and said, "Mister Ducky wants to talk to you."

"But I don't want to talk to Mister Ducky." Arenas said nervously.

"Well too bad!" Phyrra shouted. She then ran to Arenas and Arenas started running as well.

"I don't want to take a bath!" Arenas shouted as he jumped over the couch.

"I don't care!" Phyrra shouted. She jumped over the couch. "Aunty is gone for the day and I'm in charge. And I'm supposed to make sure you take a bath!"

Patroklos walked downstairs as the two were running around the house.

"Oh no." Patroklos mumbled to himself.

He turned around and tried to go back upstairs, but Phyrra shouted, "You aren't not playing any video games until you take your bath too!"

Phyrra walked up to Patroklos as she dragged Arenas by the ear. She took Patroklos by the ear and started dragging him too.

"Ow, ow, ow." Patroklos and Arenas repeated as their ears were being pulled.

-In The Bathroom-

"Okay, I'm going to leave now." I want both of you to take a bath by dinner time. Both Patroklos and Arenas were in their underwear. "Now, who is taking a bath first?"

Arenas and Patroklos turned to each other. "I'm not going first!" Arenas shouted as he started running and ran into the wall. He fell on the floor. For a few minutes, he was unconscious. But he got back up. "I'm okay."

"Fine. Go at the same time if you have to. I'm going to start making dinner." Phyrra said. She left the room and the two not-so-smart boys were left alone in the bathroom. Which has many dangerous things in it. Maybe not for normal people, but for Patroklos and Arenas. But they'll be safe if they at least try to use their brains. Anyway, there was a moment of silence in the bathroom. Neither boy said anything. To break the silence, Arenas turned on the water for the bath.

"Your really going to take a bath?" Patroklos asked.

"I have to. I don't have a choice." Arenas stated.

"You know, a bathroom is built with a window by the toilet for two reasons." Patroklos started. "To air out the bathroom when someone makes a stinker in the toilet, and to let people climb out of the window."

Arenas raised an eyebrow and asked, "Your point?"

"We're going to escape and not take a bath. I'm so smart!" Patroklos chimed. He headed to the window and climbed on top of the toilet.

"Uh...Mister Smart, your wearing only underwear. Your clothing is over here." Arenas told his idiotic brother.

"Oh...Yeah, I knew that." Patroklos told his adoptive brother. Arenas rolled his eyes. The two left, but they forgot one thing. The water was still running.

-In Town-

Patroklos and Arenas walked around town as happy as can be. They bought sunglasses and new outfits and they thought they were so cool. I repeat, THEY THOUGHT they were so cool. Apparently, goofy glasses and clown suits weren't cool in this town...Or any other town. "Everyone is looking at us. They must love the outfits." Patroklos stated.

"Really?" Arenas asked "I'm starting to get the feeling that people are looking at us because we look odd."

Patroklos started stroking his chin and then said, "Maybe, maybe." Then he suddenly blurted out a question. "Hey, want to go to Burger Calibur?"

Arenas' eyes started to sparkle. Then he ran around Patroklos and shouted, "Burger Calibur, Burger Calibur, Burger Calibur!"

"Okay, okay. Let's go." Patroklos told Arenas.

-At Burger Calibur-

Patroklos and Arenas arrived at Burger Calibur. Unfortunately, there was a SUPER long line of people there. Burger Calibur sure does get crowded after school. Patroklos scratched the back of his head. "Um...Maybe you should go to the indoor playground. I'll stay in line." Patroklos said.

"Okay!" Arenas shouted. "Make sure you order me a Kids Meal!" Arenas walked to the playground in side of the restaurant. It was filled with a bunch of kids. Kids talking, going down the slide, and tackling each other. Arenas climbed a ladder to get to a slide and he bump into a kid. A kid who looked like a mini Nightmare. And he was. He was Nightmare's son, Jacabob.

"Hey, watch where your going punk!" Jacabob shouted. He looked angry and had a bunch of other evil kids behind him. Arenas, could have just climb down the ladder and not cause any trouble, but he decided to cause a problem.

"You calling me a punk?" Arenas asked. "You should be talking to yourself, and your little backup singers."

"What did you say?" Jacabob asked angrily. Arenas started to panic. He grabbed his dirty underwear that he keeps in his pocket, and put it over Jacabob's head.

"Haha! Later suckers!" Arenas shouted as her started running away. Jacabob pulled the dirty under wear off his head and shouted, "Get him!" Arenas ran past Patroklos, who was wondering why. Then, Jacabob bumped into Patroklos. "Watch where you standing!"

"Huh?" Patroklos asked.

"Patroklos, run!" Arenas shouted. Patroklos did as his brother told him to. They ran around the city, looking like crazy people. Especially since Patroklos and Arenas still had their clown outfits on. I can't imagine all of the people who asked if Patroklos was crazy while he was standing in line. Anyway, they ran around the city and soon came to an dead end. Literally, there was a dead wall and an alive wall next to him.

"Why Tommy, why!" the alive wall shouted. Patroklos and Arenas were about to get beat up by a bunch of little kids. It was kinda pathetic though because they were all 5 years-old.

"What are we going to do?" Arenas whispered to Patroklos.

"I-I don't know." Patroklos whispered back. "Wait...Let's use our B.O.! We didn't take a bath, so I'm sure we stink!"

Patroklos and Arenas stood like they were about to give up. And for a moment, the 5 year-olds falled for it. But they headed to the kids, and stuck out their armpits. A wave of a disgusting smell floated around. The kids were starting to tear up. Even the alive wall died. Patroklos and Arenas finally got away...But what are they going to do about the problem back home?

-At Home-

Phyrra walked upstairs to the bathroom. She knocked on the door and asked, "How is it going in there? Are you two done?" There was no response. "Um guys?" She opened the door and a room full of water came out of the bathroom and completely soaked her. "W-What the-Patroklos and Arenas!"

Patroklos and Arenas he their names being shouted as they were about to open the door. "Um...Why don't we just sleep over a Zio's place?" Patroklos asked.

"Yeah, let's do that." Arenas responded. The two tip-toed away as Phyrra cursed out Patroklos and Arenas in whispers.

Haha! I love this story! I'm sure many of you do too! If you want to know where the name, Jacabob came from, well my sister made it. When she was little, I used to read a lot of stories with her and there was a character named Jacob. But she pronounced it as Jacabob. Lol. Well, that's all I have to say right now. Stay tuned for the next chapter! :)
