Chapter 7:
When the Monstars got back inside the mansion, Pound closed and locks the front door shut. "Well guys, we're back home." Pound said. "Since we're back inside the mansion, I bet you guys are tired right now." said Nawt. "We sure are little dude." Blanko smiled as he replied, "We're so tired, we could nap for hours." "Blanko is right." Bupkus agreed, "I'm so tired, I could sleep like a log." Pound,Bupkus,Blanko,and Bang pretended to yawn to fool Nawt so they can stop him from eating too much cookies. Nawt smiled as he thought to himself, "Finally Nawt! This is your chance!"
"That's alright." said Nawt, "You guys get your rest while I go to the bathroom."
And so, Nawt walked slowly next to the bathroom door while Pound,Bupkus,Blanko,and Bang were pretending to walk upstairs by walking in place on the stairs. Suddenly, the saw their little red friend zoom into the kitchen. Pound whispered to the others, "C'mon you guys. Let's see what our little buddy Nawt is up to in the kitchen." "You got it." The rest of them whispered. The four Monstars tiptoed from downstairs and snuck next to the kitchen entrance. The four boys poked their heads in the kitchen and saw Nawt opening the cookie jar next to the microwave. Nawt smiled with joy when his plan finally worked. "I did it! He said with glee, "I finally get to eat more of these cookies!" Nawt started eating the cookies straight from the jar and felt giddy inside."
Suddenly, Pound,Bupkus,Blanko,and Bang jumped into the kitchen and caught Nawt red handed as they shouted, "Aha! Busted!" which caused Nawt to jump in fear. He turned around with a nervous look on his face while Pound,Bupkus,Blanko,and Bang were furious with him. Nawt gulped when he asked the others a question."Guys? How did you all know that I was eating more cookies? I thought you guys were about to take a nap." Bupkus replied, "We knew you were up to something, so we came up with a plan to stop you." " did we tell you about eating too much of Bang's cookies?!" Pound asked sternly."Pound's right Nawt." Bupkus agreed, "Eating too much of Bang's cookies can give you cavities and make you feel sick. You know that right?"
"I know." Nawt replied, "But I can't help myself. Bang's cookies are so good!" Pound said, "That's still no excuse to hog them all for yourself." "I agree with Pound, dude." Blanko reasoned with Nawt, "You shouldn't eat too much sugar; it's not good for you."
Bang was also furious at Nawt for trying to eat all of his cookies for himself. "You should be ashamed of yourself Nawt!" he growled, "I told you that I didn't bake those cookies just for you. I baked those for all of us." "I'm sorry Bang." Nawt apologized, "But I can't help myself." Bang was fed up with Nawt's excuses and couldn't take it anymore." I don't want to hear any more of your excuses!" he shouted, "You better save us some cookies! If you don't,I'm gonna make you bake them without my help and without my recipes!"
Nawt shook nervously when heard Bang's threats. "But I don't know how to bake cookies!" Nawt exclaimed, "I don't even know how to cook!" "You'll learn how to cook if you keep eating those cookies!" Bang yelled. Bupkus restrains Bang, "Bang, don't you think you're being a little harsh on Nawt?" Bupkus reasoned with him. "You have to calm down"." Bang took a deep breath and finally calmed down. However, the rest of the boys were still upset with Nawt.
"We're really disappointed in you Nawt." said Pound.
"Yeah, man." Blanko said, "That was a very selfish thing to do.
Pound,Blanko, and Bang left the kitchen. Before Bupkus left, he told Nawt, "Before you start eating those cookies, ask yourself; what's more important? Cookies or your friends?" After Bupkus left, Nawt was filled shame inside. "What have I done?" he asked himself.
