Meanwhile, Ness was in the refrigerator, trying to remember what they were making since he forgot when Claus and Ninten started up another argument. He was getting a little frustrated remembering, but he has the easy job.
At least I don't have to take care of Lucas right now. Then again, the worst that could happen right now is if-
His thoughts were interrupted by the vibrations of his phone. He had just received a text from Claus, who was less than 5 feet away,(he really wanted to keep an eye on Ninten didn't he?) saying, "Make something!"
WHAT?! Claus wants ME to cook?! I can't cook! Even before the twins moved in we always ordered take out. WHAT THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO DO!?
Ness was mentally freaking out and knew he needed to figure out a plan and FAST. Meanwhile Ninten had Lucas by a rope he tied himself to his leg with, dragging him up the stairs, with Claus sitting down stairs silently chuckling to death. He couldn't believe Ninten made this bet with him; he knew Ninten could barely take care of himself! There was no way he has a chance. And Claus didn't even have to watch over him to know that, but he was only there for two reasons; to laugh at Ninten's pain of failure, and to make sure Ninten didn't cause Lucas any pain.
"See Claus," Ninten said as he was breathing heavily holding the rope with both hands. "I'm almost up the steps!"
"Yes Ninten. Its taken you 20 minutes to get up 15 steps. Congratulations!"
"Well, at least I got him up here. While you were just sitting on your ass and…. oh right. I can be so forgetful!" Ninten said with a chuckle.
"Right," Claus said unsurely. "Anyway, he still needs to be cleaned, dressed, and have his hair done how he usually does. Oh and you also needs to have all his wounds cleaned and needs the rope off his ankle."
Just then, Ninten raised his hand, and Claus immediately said, "And no, NOT in that exact order."
Ninten then gave him an offended look. "I wasn't going to ask that."
"It sure didn't look like it."
"Look Claus, I don't need your help. I got up the stairs just fine. I can do this on my own."
"Oh really?" Claus then quickly looked down and then looked back up at the clueless boy. "Lucas sure has been pretty quiet…"
"...yeah. He's actually being pretty good. I might just let him use the DS you're going to give me."
"Ninten…."
"Yes?"
"Look down."
"Claus if you trying to distract me from winning it's not gonna work because-" He quickly looked down. "HOLY SHIT LUCAS IS GONE!"
Claus nodded his head at what he already knew, as he looked back down to what Ninten was hold, which was just a rope, which was untied.
"That escaladed quickly didn't it?"
"OKAY! I lose. You win. I lose. Now I have to…um…. what did I bet on?"
"I don't know I'll think of something. I'd actually make fun of you for this for like 20 minutes, but my temporarily idiotic twin is missing. And since we didn't notice until he was missing, I have no idea where he could be. And he did it somehow without us hearing too. Maybe he's not as stupid as we thought…"
"Or…" Ninten began, "We're just getting dumber."
"Me? Stupid?"
"Well you did just trust him to me for over 30 minutes, while doing almost absolutely nothing. Soooo….."
Claus thought about it, then facepalmed, realizing that Ninten was actually right! Only a total dumbass could leave their own sibling with someone like Ninten, AND WATCH! Even if all he did was just drag him up the stairs.
"...I think I've spent way too much time with you."
Meanwhile in the kitchen…
"PK FREEZE!"
Ness said those words and used it to freeze the stove. He's never accidentally set anything on fire before….. Actually he's never fucked up this badly at anything before. He was almost terrified he was going to set the whole house ablaze and almost had a heart attack until he noticed his psy worked it's magic.
"I've been…. hanging around… Ninten…... for way too long….," Ness said in between breaths. He grabbed a cup and went to the fridge to get water. He took a drink to calm himself down. He immediately took the realization that there was absolutely no way in HELL he was going to cook for the anyone… EVER AGAIN! There was only 3 people who could fix this…. but one was currently stupid and the other is watching him. So he had to call his last resort….
Ness then took out his phone then dialed the number. As the phone rang, he started to be uncertain if he should do this. But he definitely knew if there wasn't something edible on the table before everyone came back, the guys would probably freeze him, set him onfire and eat him instead, or even worse…. hid his hat again!
"Yep… I have to do this" Ness mumbled.
Ninten and Claus were looking for Lucas, and since they had nothing to go on they were looking all over the house. They checked the living room, the bathrooms and the kitchen, but nothing. They did notice that the stove was frozen, but that wasn't their priority right now. They were about to check in the basement until Claus came to his senses, and held Ninten back from the door.
"Wait a sec… what the fuck are we doing?"
"What are you talking about Claus? Were looking around for your stupid! And I thought I was forgetful!"
"Ninten, Lucas is somewhere upstairs."
"And how would you know that?", Ninten asked.
"He's afraid of stairs."
Both boys then ran all the way back upstairs. They heard noises coming from Lucas' room, and stopped at his door.
"You ready for this Claus?"
"I've been doing this for years Ninten. I should be asking you the same thing."
Then, as ready as they were ever going to be, they burst into the room and immediately knew that they were not as ready as they thought they were. There was Lucas, with Claus' light sword, and only had on a pair of red and yellow underwear.
"Well", Ninten began. "Didn't see that coming."
"You'll never take me alive ass clowns!"
Ninten couldn't help but laugh. "Claus, you are an ass and you do look like a clown."
"...he called us both ass clowns."
"Aww man."
"Anyway, Lucas, come with us, we need to clean you up before we starve to death."
"Yeah Luke! Ness is probably being tortured by waiting for us while looking at whatever he made for dinner."
"I, Lucas SKYWALKER, REFUSE TO BOW TO YOUR LOGIC! I WILL NEVER GO WITH YOU UNWILLINGLY! NOW GET READY FRO THE PAIN OF MY-" Before he could finish, he dropped to the floor, which caused Ninten to scream.
"Relax Ninten. He's alive." He then walked over to where the fallen Lucas laid dormant, but still alive and put his finger on his neck. "See. He still has a pulse."
"So, what the fuck happened?"
"The shots had been reversed and Lucas' brain is undoing the effects. What I don't get though, is that it's way too early. It's not suppose to happen for another 13 hours. Unless…"
They then looked outside, but even though it answered the questions they already had, it rose more.
"IT'S NIGHT!?"
