ELECTRICITY
By special guest author Kiki
"Do you think this is a good idea?" Kyle looked at the sheriff. "She called me 'Dad'," the sheriff gave his son the look. Kyle nodded. "Yeah, I know. She is really annoying." "Annoying?! That's the understatement of the year!" Max peered at the Valentis. "Do you think this is a little rash? I mean, we could find other ways..." Isabel started. Alex shook his head, "Nothing else could do the job fast enough." "So, what's the plan?" Michael inquired. "Well, we're going to zap her mind with a high-energy pulse. It was Liz's idea. Apparently if it's high enough, it will make her implode," Maria explained. "What are you whispering about?" Tess had just creeped up behind Michael. She gave them her famous "I have gas" expression, and everyone looked away in disgust. "The usual," Liz was quick to answer. Liz handed Tess a fork, "Could you possibly put this in that hole in the wall?" Liz chimed. "Hmmmmmmmmm, no. But thanks for playing that game," Tess smiled. Liz looked at Max for help. Max looked deep into Tess' eyes, "It would mean the world to me if you just stuck this fork in that electrical socket." Tess' attitude immediately changed. "OKAY!" she said in her airhead voice. The blonde strutted (attempted to) over to the socket and inserted the fork. Immediately a high surge of electrical energy pulsated throughout her body. The dumb blonde released the fork and backed off. "YOU TRICKED ME!" she shouted at the top of her lungs. Isabel looked at Max and Michael, and instantly they all held out their hands. The pulse from the socket hadn't been enough, but they would add to it. Concentrating, they summoned the energy inside them, and blasted the gerbil with Mega Kilovolts of electricity. In an instant, the girl exploded into a puddle of goo. "Blech, how are we gonna clean that up?" Kyle looked at his dad. The sheriff grabbed the mop, and then stopped, the mop was too good for her. "Let's soak it up with those items she calls 'clothes'." After cleaning up the mess with Tess' rags, the gang enjoyed the Valenti house with the absence. They were able to take a break from complete irritation.
