Note from the Author: This story is a spontaneous thing that I just thought of. All the events here on were just though up on the spot. I had no idea what is going to come out of this story.
::click::Okay everyone, Trey has just pulled in the driveway. He should be coming in soon.
"I AM GONNA KILL MY BOSS!"
Okay, it sounds like Trey isn't in the best of moods. He has a pretty short fuse, I'll see what's going on. "Yo Trey, what's up? Glad you could make it"
"Why the hell am I here anyway?"
"We are doing that recording thing for the time capsule...remember that thing we were talking about last weekend? I got that digital recorder thing, and we were gonna talk about ourselves mostly"
"Fine, give it here. GIVE IT HERE! Hi, I'm Trey Anastasio. I'm Italian. I am gonna kill my boss. He always blames me for stuff that's not my fault. It's god damn Andy's fault. He's such a screw up! But I always get blamed for his fuckin incompetence. Ummm...what else. I dunno...Josh! What do you want me to say? I can't think of anything! Oh I know! I like to play with fire. Fire is fun! Ants are fun to set on fire."
"Okay, I think this is good enough guys. I'm gonna go bury this thing now."::click::
"Guys! Come help me dig!"
"Hey Josh, can I help?"
"Yes Billy...go grab a shovel and shovel the dirt that the guys shovel onto the ground into the wheel barrow and then dump it over there for now."
"Okay...is over here good?"
"ANYWHERE BUT HERE! Jesus Christ, that kid is such an incomp!"
"Dude, Josh, then why do we hang out with him? Or why do we let him hang out with us?"
"I dunno...I guess I feel sorry for him or something. I mean he's got no life...Trey!"
"What?! I'm tired!"
"Trey, get over here and stop setting the ants on fire in your little dead grass pit!"
"But it's fun!"
"Get over here! We gotta get this thing about four feet deep"
"Four feet deep?! Holy shit! That's gonna take forever! Christ, Josh! How'd you talk us into this shitty thing in the first place"
"You're the one who suggested it when you were high, Trey."
"Damn it!"
"Get digging!"
"Yo, Josh, what's that black stuff? Man! That stuff wreaks! Ugh! What is that?"
"Dude, Mike, It's crude oil! We struck oil!"
"What? I couldn't hear you when I was dumping dirt! Did you say somone had a Potluck with foil? I ate foil once. It was on the bottom of a pizza and it stuck there, I didn't know it was there until my second piece. I didn't even taste it. But I wouldn't wanna eat just aluminum foil at a potluck."
"No, Billy you dumbass...we struck oil!"
"You shouldn't be striking oil! That's flammable man!"
"There's no lightning dumbass...I mean we found oil in the ground!"
"Who put it there?"
"NO ONE! It's natural"
"Oh"
"Hey, Billy, did you say flammable?"
"Yeah, Trey, I did...It's very flammable! One time, on the news, I heard about this guy who put oil all over the roof of a house and set it on fire on halloween. It was pretty cool."
"Billy, don't tell him that! You know how Trey is with fire!"
"What's he gonna--ooohhhh!"
"Yooo!!! I'm gonna get some of that oil stuff and put it on the sidewalk. Then I'll get some ants from that ant colony I found over by your house. It'll be like burning pop rocks!!"
"No! Trey, don't! Oil burns forever. You can't put it out with water either!"
"I won't do that much"
"No, You can't do it"
"Ugh, fine"
"Hey guys, I'm gonna head in for lunch. I'm beat...you coming Trey?"
"Huh? Uh, no...I'm...gonna...I'm gonna help Billy finish up with the dirt."
"H-hey! Did someone say my name?!"
"Okay, come in when you are done"
"Yeah, okay Josh, I'll be in then...Hey Billy, empty out that wheel barrow and bring it over here"
"Thanks, Trey, I was starting to get a little tired. What do you want? Did I hear you say my name?"
"Yeah Billy, you did. Listen, help me get some of this oil stuff into the wheel barrow. I'm gonna show you something really cool."
"Okay, we can use these shovels to get some of it in. What are you going to do with it?"
"I just got this idea...I'm gonna write my name on the street with the oil. Then I'm gonna light it on fire. It's gonna look really cool. It shouldn't burn that long. I mean, hairspray doesn't burn that long."
"Okay, let's do it!...Man, th-this stuff smells!"
"Alright, that's enough. Now lets bring it out to the street and we'll write my name."
"Okay, lets go...T.....R.....E...."
"And a Y...and now for the finishing touches!" **snap, fishhhh, FWOOOMMM!!!**
"Hey Trey, this is really neat! Hey, we've got some oil left, you wanna use it f-for underlining your name?"
"Yeah that's a good idea...go run and get the last bit."
"Okay.........here I come! Here co--whoops!"
"BILLY!!!!!!!"
"I tripped..."
"Billy, tripping is the least of your problems right now. When you tripped, you sent the oil flying into the field across the street. And just your dumb, fuckin luck, the field is dry! Holy shit! It's spreading fast! Oh man oh god oh crap oh no!"
"My knee hurts."
"Forget about your knee! The field's on fire!"
"We'd better go get the other guys and have them help us put this out."
"Billy, you dumbshit! You can't put this out! I'm getting out of here. Where can I go? The closest house is David Wells' house!"
"Hey, David, he's funny! Let's go to his house! We like to play Sonic The Hedgehog on his Sega. You know Sega wasn't the first to have a 16 bit system? It was Turbo Grafix 16. But a lot of people forgot about that cuz it fizzled out. It was probably made by Atari. Atari has never made anything good that got popular. Sonic is Fun"
"Shut up! Let's go!"
"Josh, do you smell that? That's some pretty rank manure!"
"That's not manure, that's probably the guy across the street burning his leaves."
"What the fu--HOLY SHIT!!!!!"
"What? What is it Page?"
"You guys! Hurry your asses over here! Look at this! The street and the field are on fire!"
"OH SHIT!!! God damn it Trey. Where the hell is he?"
"He said that he was going to help Billy finish up with the dirt."
"I'm gonna go outside and beat his ass. Mike, Page...umm...do...something. Call the fire department!"
"Yeah, ok...9-1-1....Yeah...uh, my street is on fire...yes ma'am, my street...no ma'am, this is not a prank call...my street and the field are on fire....no, it isn't...i don't know how it started....i was eating lunch and smelled something....uh huh....ok...no, for the last time, this is for real....yes, my street....YES! 1872 Ridgestone Lane, Winterfield. Yeah...ok...bye."
"Guys, he's not out there, neither is Billy. I'm not coming inside though, I got some oil on my shoe. I got most of it off, but there is still some that soaked into the suede. I'm gonna go across the street and see if the guys are somewhere where the fire isn't. Did you guys get ahold of the fire dept?"
"Yeah, they should be here soon, hear em?"
"Yeah. Be right back...Billy!...Trey!...Where the hell are you?.........AAAAHHHHH!!!! SHIT SHIT SHIT!!! MY SHOE!! MY SHOE'S ON FIRE!!! HELP!!"
"Oh my GOD! Mike, come over here....Josh! Josh, take your shoe off! You'll have to let it burn, you can't put out an oil fire!"
"Ow ow ow!! Some of my shoe melted to my foot, Page."
"Okay, here...get on my shoulders. We'll stick your foot in the bathtub and see if we can get some off. You didn't happen to see Billy or Trey, did you?"
"I don't know...I saw two guys who looked like them way down the street."
"They might've gone to David's house. Billy is good friends with him."
"Josh! Oh my god!"
"Rhea?!?! What're you doing here? How'd you find out about this?"
"I heard it on my dad's scanner...holy shit, are you okay? How'd that happen? We're you playing in the fire or something?"
"No, I went outside to look for Billy and Trey. I have a feeling they set this on fire. Anyway, I was outside and i slipped on some oil that wasn't burning and my foot got near the flames and all of a sudden there was just this ball of fire on my shoe. It's gone now...burned to nothing. Some of the shoe melted to my foot, so I'm soaking it in the tub."
"Hey Rhea, would you mind staying here with Josh while I go out and see what Mike is doing?"
"Yeah, sure Page. Jesus, Josh. Why don't you watch where you are going?!"
"Hey, oil's black, so is the road. I was also pissed off, looking for those two dumbasses. God, I told him not to set that oil on fire."
"Wait, oil, how did he get his hands on oil?"
"Oh, we were digging a hole in my backyard to bury my digital recorder for a time capsule, and we struck oil. Kinda like the Beverly Hillbillies."
"What did you do with the recorder? What'd you use it for?"
"It's sitting in my back pocket. Me, Mike, Page, Billy, and Trey recorded our voices and we talked about things about today and then people like 50 or 100 years will dig it up and laugh at the "primitive" stuff that we have."
"Lemme see it...how come I didn't get to record anything?"
"You weren't here!"
"You never told me about it. But, sure, you tell the other guys. How could you not say anything to me about it? I'm your girlfriend! God, sometimes you are so dense."
"Hey!"
"Okay okay, I'm sorry Josh...come here...closer...******...Do you feel any better?"
"A little, but my foot hurts, not my lips."
*Splash* "Shut up. Here, let me see it. I wanna say something"
"Ok, here ya go...just be careful with it. Just press that little red button to record."
"Here goes *click*...is it reco-oh ok- uh...Hi, this is Rhea. I am Josh's beeeautiful girlfriend. Um...what else should I say? Oh I don't know, in the whole course of attempting to bury this thing, oil has been struck and a friend set a field on fire. Quite eventful! *click* Ok I'm done. Was that enough?"
"Uh, yeah. Good enough. Hey, could you do me a favor and go outside and see what Mike and Page are up to?"
"Sure.....Yo Mike! Where's Page?"
"Oh, he went up the street to see if he could find Trey and Billy. Jesus Christ, why the hell did he do this? What the hell was he thinking?"
"Well, Billy, probably nothing...I don't know about Trey, he's just a stupid pyro"
"Yeah...God, the police were here and they started questioning me on what happened. So, I explained the whole thing. The guy was looking at me like I was some kinda nut or something. But I told him everything. Well, all I know. I have no idea why they decided to set oil on fire, and on the STREET no less!"
"Yeah, those guys can be some pretty dumb fucks sometimes. Oh well, at least my boyfriend isn't that dumb...uh, well he didn't set the fire. But he did step in the fire. Oh jeez. He's just as messed up as the rest of them."
"Hey, here comes Mike. Looks like he found them. MIKE!!! Hurry up!"
"Shut the fuck up!"
"And what do you have to say for yourself, Billy?"
"....ow...."
"What?"
"Mike hit me."
"You deserve it, you Forrest Gumpish FREAK! Why the hell did you guys set it on fire?"
"I tripped."
"How, did you trip? And how does the fire spread by tripping?"
"I was running with some more oil for Trey cuz he wanted to underline his name. Then I tripped over the curb and the oil went flying into the field and caught on fire in the air."
"And Trey, why did you ask Billy to help you? You know he's not very competent!"
"Hey!"
"Shut up, dumbass!"
"I'll go stand over here now."
"So, why'd you get Billy to be your accomplice?"
"Cuz I knew he would do what I told him to do with no questions asked!"
"I oughta beat the shit outta you."
"�Scuse me gentleman. Do you know who's responsible for this fire?"
"It was that kid right there, Trey Anastasio."
"BILLY!!! I hate you!"
