It was now morning, we were RUDELY woken up by the guards, pounding on our door cell. I groaned and rubbed my head, we all did. We were ordered to get dressed out of our current uniforms to our regular clothes (separately of course). We then we're waiting for a car to pick us up and drop us off at Marmalades.To be honest, I don't know how this will go. This is almost hysterical, thinking of us pretending to be good. We went in the car and soon drove off to the Professors home.
When we got there, my eyes widened on how fancy the huge flipping house was. We all went out of the car and muttered words of amazement when looking at the house ahead of us. "Big and fancy!" Exclaimed Webs. "Fancy is right!" I added. "Rodent's bigot taste, okay!" Shark exclaimed which made me smirk in response. The doors opened automatically for us as we walked in. "Almost makes me wanna be cute." Snake said. "You're already cute enough as it is." I teased. I saw Snake's face flush in embarrassment. "Shut up! Don't make me come over there." He threatened.
"They say experience is the best teacher. And they are wrong." We all gasped slightly as we heard that squeaky voice, across the hallways. "I am." We all turned around and saw Marmalade with who I'm assuming is his butler.
"Good morning, students of goodness. And welcome to the first day of the rest of your best life." Marmalade welcomed. "A giant butt!" Piranha randomly exclaimed, pointing to the butt shaped lamp. Piranha as much as your right, now is not the good time.
"Huh? Uh, it's- it's not a butt. It's a lamp."Marmalade corrected as he clapped his hands to make it light up. "In the shape of the Love Crater Meteorite, my greatest-." "I wonder whose butt it is." Piranha interrupted, making us gasp in worry. "Uh..once again, it's not a butt, thank you." He frowned while clapping to turn it off. "It's a heart. Now as I was saying.." "Then why does it have cheeks?" This time we were all trying to shush him. If this plan stops working cause of this, I'm throwing myself off a cliff.
"What? I've never seen a heart with cheeks." Marmalade chuckled. "It's not a.." "BOOTY!" "ITS NOT A BUTT! ITS NOT A BUTT!" Marmalade yelled now getting irritated. I backhanded Piranha on the back of his head. "Ow! What was that for?!" "Do I NEED to explain?" "I don't even think he knows what a butt is." I pinched the bridge of my nose.
Marmaldade cleared his throat. "As I was saying, on the outside, the six of you are villains, predators, remorseless physcopaths." We all smirked at this. "Oh, stop you're making me blush." Commented Shark. "But inside, there's a flower. The flower of goodness. And when it blooms and you feel that tingle of positivity radiating through your body, you're going to want to feel it all the time."
"So we're going for a tingle?" Webs asked. "Not any tingle, the tingle of goodness which you'll feel in my state-of-the art sharing Laboratory!" We then followed him upstairs to a table with two chairs at both ends. We all just looked confusingly at the set up. This ain't even a lab- whatever.
"Okay, Mr. Snake, I'm going to give a push pop." Marmalade then waved the fruity push pop in front of Snake. "Great! Push pop just for me!" He exclaimed while grabbing it. Before he shoved it down his throat, Marmalade paused him. "No. To share." Snake glared. "Why." "Well, on a fundamental level, it's about putting someone else's needs ahead of your own." He then pointed to Shark who was sitting on the left side of the table, chuckling evilly at Snake. I smirked as soon I knew what was going to happen. This will be fun to watch.
"Oh no! No way!" Snake exclaimed. "What's wrong Snakie? Chicken?" I asked. "Ooh! She callin you out!" Piranha said in the background, making me smirk even more. Snake frowned, but smirked as he slithered up to me. "Never." He said in my face and slithered to the right chair of the table. Though his words said something, you can obviously see he's regretting his life choices.
"This is gonna to taste extra sweet, because I know how bad you want it." Shark said. Way to rub it in the wound. Snake slowly, and hesitantly, pass the push pop to Shark's jaws. "Pop me please." Shark smirked as he opened his mouth. Snake was having a rough time with this as he was being tortured to place it in his mouth. We waited eagerly for him to do it, but Snake fooled us and snatched it away. Classic Snake.
"Nope!" He exclaimed, as he shoved it in his mouth. "Sucker!" "THATS IT!" Shark exclaimed as he pounded his fists on the table. He then grabbed Snake by the neck, pretty much choking him. "ILL TEACH YOU TO SHARE!" Then. Right in front of us. He pretty much ENGULFED HIM. I screamed slightly as the rest gasped. "I like sharing. It's yummy." "It's totally worth it!" Snake spoke in..his digestive system. This is weird to narrate. I'm just glad he's alive. "Well that's terrifying. Let's try something simple." Marmalade spoke.
~one hour of lactaid later~
We were now outside in a street. Marmalade pulled Wolf aside to speak with him as the rest of us went to our location. Marmalade then came back to us to present the project. "A good person always pays attention to the needs of others. Now, here's a kindly frail grandma." He then pointed to Wolf who was now dressed as an old lady. We all snickered and laughed at this as Wolf was dying inside. Definitely not a reference to something familiar.
Marmalade then walked up to us. "Mr. Piranha, help Grandma across the street." "Sure sure sure! I do this all the time." He then walked up to Wolf who was faking he had a bad back, and grabbed his hand. "Here you go maam!" He teased as the rest of snickered. "Careful with her, she's fragile!" I exclaimed making the laughter increase. "He's totally going to blow it." Webs smirked. Piranha heard this however, and we all know he has a short fuse.
"What was that? What did you say? You saying I can't do-!" He let go of Wolf's hand, and immediately when he was walking towards us, Wolf's screams were heard as a truck zoomed into him. We looked up and saw Wolf screaming as he fell on the road. We all cringed watching. "Maybe even simpler?" Marmalade suggested.
We then went back to the house, and made our way to the porch. I spotted a cat who was fighting for his/her own life, while holding on the tree. "Hey! Look! It's a cat stuck in a tree!" Wolf exclaimed. "Go figure." I said sarcastically. "It doesn't get much simpler then that, now, what in this scenario would give you that good tingling?" Marmalade asked.
"Eating it. This why I always carry two pieces of bread with me." Snake said, showing the bread he has. "Your answer is always eating." I rolled my eyes. "Feel like your implying something." He sneered. I shrugged and took the bread out of his tail and bit into it. He growled and annoyance.
"No..I want you to s..." Marmalade came in, waiting for our answer. Something starting with the letter S..hmm... "Smack it!" Wolf guessed. "Scan it?" Asked Snake. "Stab it." Guessed Shark. "Sauté it." Webs guessed. "Slice it?" I asked. "Sing to it?" Asked Piranha. "Save it. I want you- it's obvious- so obvious- I want you to SAVE it." Marmalade corrected us, frustrated. Oh. We all nodded to the correction.
We all looked up at the cat, as it stared down at us. "HERE KITTY KITTY!" We snarled. This however, made the cat even more scared and climbed further up the tree. "Woah, that cat is obviously defective." Snake said in unison. "What is wrong with you? You're gonna give it a heart attack. I'll handle this." Piranha said, who is the least expected to handle these types of situations.
Piranha then climbed up the tree and made his way to the frightened cat. "WHATS UP PAPA!" He yelled in its face. This made the cat leap in the air, and on Wolf's face. The cat then screeched as it started scratching the life out of his face and he screamed in agony. If that cat didn't have a heart attack before, it definitely does now. I went up to Wolf to help him get the cat off.
"Wha- What are you doing?!" Marmalade exclaimed. I got the cat off and it ran away from me. "Making sure my friend doesn't get his face ripped off." I said, helping him up." "At least your helping him." He muttered as Wolf got up and grabbed his thoughts together. "Okay. What, may I ask, are you good at?" Marmalade asked us.
We thought about this, but didn't take long to get an answer. "Stealing stuff?" Piranha suggested. "Oh yeah, we're great at that." Shark agreed. "Robery." Snake added. "That's the same thing." I said. "Same difference." Snake frowned at me which made me frown. "Larceny." Webs added. "Wire fraud." Piranha added. "Extortion." I added. "Tax evasion." Wolf said. "Heists." Shark stated. "Wait." Marmalade interrupted. "Heists you say?" He asked. "Well thats, yeah, that's kind of our specialty." Wolf said.
"I might just have an idea."
