"Gimme more!" Rowen had recently become a chocolate-addict. Cye shook his head at him. "Now will you play outside?" Ryo asked. Rowen thought for a while. Actually, for a long while. Cye was drooping off to sleep when Rowen grabbed the bag out of Cye's hand and ran outside. "STOP HIM!" Ryo ran after Rowen, who was becoming a speck in the hills. Sage grabbed the wooden staff he brought with him and did sword drills when he saw clouds of dust. Sage smiled. He was right on time. "Sage!" Rowen shouted. "Did you get the loot?" Sage asked, a devilish grin on his face. "Yeah! Catch!" he threw the bag of chocolates to Sage, who caught it before anything spilled. Chocolate always helped him get up in the morning. He grabbed handful after handful and shoved chocolate in his mouth, wrapper and all, but spit out the wrappers. Rowen arrived at where Sage was. He saw the bag half empty. He shrugged and ate the rest. He ran off after Sage, Ryo running doggedly behind him. Sage felt the sugar rush come on. That was the thing he hated. But he couldn't do anything to stop it. He reached inside his bag and removed a roll of (drumroll please!) duct tape! Kento loved picnics. He didn't know that Sage was on his way, with duct tape. Pulling out a ham sandwich, He had just enough time to unwrap it when ba m! Sage ran into him, duct tape in hand. He smiled, suddenly, Kento didn't like the smile. He slowly stood up and walked away. Sage rummaged inside his picnic basket and took out three bags of chocolate. "Eep..." Kento knew what would happen. Sage ate the chocolate, and walked menacingly to Kento, duct tape in hand. Kento ran, but Sage threw him to the ground and stripped him of most clothes. "Sage... don't!" Kento said worriedly. Sage just smiled and Kento heard the r-r-rip of duct tape being peeled away. Kento gulped. Rowen arrived at Kento's picnic. He saw three empty chocolate bags. "How could he eat it without me?" Rowen moaned. The sugar rush was leaving him now. He glanced at Kento and almost laughed. Kento looked like a wriggling gray cocoon with Sage lying beside it, sleeping, an empty roll of duct tape dropped from his hand. Rowen dragged Kento and Sage back to Ryo, who helped take them back home. Kento wasn't happy. But he never could beat Sage... He did sort of invent the duct tape thing... after Cye and Rowen, of course. He had helped. That wasn't a good idea, taping Sage. He had gotten mad, so he taped them all back. Kento learned his lesson.
THE MORAL OF THIS STORY: Stay away from Sage or Rowen in a sugar rush. |
