I'm an orange. Why? Cause oranges are amazeballs!! I hide behind the pineapples for cover. Looking to my left I see the Pear medic team treating the wonder on our side. Glancing towards the right I see my apple frontier getting prepped to go into hand to hand combat. Lieutenant Mango comes to me with new plans in his hand.
"General I have the new plans drawn up. We use the Pineapples as covers and cross over to the Lime city borders. The Grape bombers are ready to drop when you say 'Go'. The Veggie kingdom will have no idea what hit them." My Lieutenant says to me.
I nod my head and speak to my tropes. "Men and women. Today we lay it all Al the line. Today we stand up and let the Veggie Isle know we will not be f*cked with! We fight for the right to be juicy, delicious, and full if victims. They wanted to take all that way from you! But today we fight! And we fight heard. Lets give them hell. No broccoli forest will go unchopped . No vegetable will be left after we are done." I look to my fruit army and hear war cries
I stand in front of my army and scream "Go". We lead our way towards the Lime city boarders and climb our way towards the top. Looking down we can see the Zucchini General at the bottom. His tropes see us sand race towards my army. Within a matter of seconds we are face to face.
"I see you refuse to take my advice and give me the Fruit Isles!" Zucchini General yells as our swords lock in combat.
"I will lay my life down for my people but its no need because your seeds will be all over this field when I am done with you" I yell as I kick the general in the face. I manage to knock his sword away from him while he falls on the ground. I take my sword my thrust it towards him but.......
I feel a cold liquid being poured on me followed by something being thrown on me. I open my eyes to see my little brother Jaden starring at me with wide brown eyes. He is clutching onto a box of Frosted Flakes. He drops the box and jumps off my bed. Before I could blink he is out of my room. I look down at my king size bed to see I'm covered in milk and frosted flakes.
I stare at the place on my bed where my brother Jaden was. He is 6 and such a funny little boy. He is always up to watch Ninjago with me. I love cartoons and my little brother just gives me an excuse to watch them. Plus he is my partner in crime when it comes to sneaking candy. He shares the same golden brown complexion as I do. He also has long curly hair which we inherited from our mother Samantha. His has our dad's brown eyes while I have my Mom's hazel eyes with green specks in them.
It seems like my brothers want a war. So they will get one. I leave my room and sneak down the stairs. I know my brothers are hiding and I know their hiding place. I enter the kitchen and head to the walk in pantry. I grab a few squeeze bottles of jelly, honey, and a few cans of whipped cream. I tuck the whipped cream bottles in the pockets of my Spongebob pajama pants. Armed with my weapons of choice I head out to find the Taylor boys. Payback time.
Leaving the kitchen I slowly creep down the hall towards the basement with my game plan. I already know they will be in the Man Cave. I stop at the wood door and hear my brothers talking on the inside. I start thinking of my brothers on the other side and smile. The Three Taylor boys
Jamal is 16 years old but acts like he is older than me. He is 6 feet even. He has light brown eyes with a milk chocolate complexion. He plays for our school's varsity football team as the quarter back. The way girls fall at his feet is ridiculous. He already has a big a** head, they just make it worse.
Then there is my older brother Jeremiah. He is a spitting image of our dad. From the light skin complexion to that killer smile he gives. He is also tall like daddy. He towers over normal people at 6'2. He is 21 and a Junior at a college that's a 30 minute drive from our house so he lives here instead of on campus. When our parents died 5 years, he was always there for me to make sure I as alright. I know I can talk to him about everything and any thing except boys. Boys are a no no topic. He goes into full older brother beast mode threatening to hurt any boy that even looks in my direction.
I introduced the three Taylor boys so it only leaves me. Sophia Taylor. I am 17 and the short one of the family unless you count Jaden. I don't cause he has not had the chance to experience puberty while puberty has been long gone for me. I stand at 5'2 and I am damn proud of it. Shortness for life. Everyone tells me I take after my mom with my curvy body. My brothers hated the attention I started getting when my boobs, hips, and butt started forming at 15. My long curly hair that touches right above my butt and my hazel eyes always cause me to be called 'Lil Sam' by everyone that has known my mother. Plus I have an unnatural love of gummy bears. I am completely goofy with a slick mouth that I happily accepted from my mother also.
"I don't think she will do anything. And if she does we will use little Jaden as a shield." My younger brother Jamal says.
My older brother Jeremiah goes to respond but before he can I bust through the door and my war has started. Taking the whipped cream cans from my pockets I spray all three of them before they even know what hits him. Jaden takes the first hit to the chest and face. Jamal tries to hide behind the couch but I'm able to spray his hair before he takes cover. Jeremiah just stands in front of the Pac Man video game looking at me.
"Sofia you wouldn't dare spray me with whipped cream." He says as I take a few steps towards him.
"Of course not my dear Jeremiah." I drop the cans on the floor while saying this. He smiles as if he has won. His smile drops once I reach into my tank top for the honey and jelly. He opens his mouth to say something only to be met with a face and moth full of honey and jelly. He tries to run for cover nut I follow him ever step of the way until all the bottles are empty. Looking around the room I see my brothers covered in honey, jelly and whipped cream. I smile as I pretend to blow smoke away from the honey bottle.
"Sophia what happened?" I hear my uncle Mike say from the doorway. I turn to face my uncle Mike. My uncle stand at 6 foot 3 inches. His eyes are dark drown and he had dreads that reach hiss lower back. His caramel complexion reminds me of my father Jerald. He is in great shape. He has to be because he is a member of the Miami SWAT team. He held our family together when our parents died. He was there for us and did whatever we needed. He has been our rock and protector for the last 5 years. He even has taken on the mother role when its needed. Jeremiah, Jamal, Jaden, and our uncle Mike all act so hard and tough but when I am in pain they are right there to help me feel better. Our uncle moved into the house we had with our parents and helped expand it. So we all have some space that is our own. Uncle Mike can go from giving us a lecture about coming in late to betting us he can stick two grapes in his nose. He is so cool and down to earth.
"Well Jaden, Jeremiah, and Jamal thought it would be an awesome idea to wake me by pouring milk and Frosted flakes on me. So I thought I would get a little payback." I see while my Uncle walks towards me. He looks around at the battle ground that has happen and he smiles.
"Seems like I taught my little sweet pea well" he says as he starts laughing at mine and my brother's appearances.
Jaden comes out from hiding behind a chair and runs up to me. "I'm sorry Jeremiah and Jamal made me do it. I love you Sophy!!" he says as he jumps in my arms. I can't do anything but kiss his cheek and hug him back.
Jeremiah walks towards with a huge grin on my face. "Who ever thought my little sister would be able to beat me in a battle!" he says as he ruffles my hair.
"Hey! I want a rematch!! I wasn't prepared." Jamal says as he picks himself off the floor.
"I was not prepared when y'all dumped milk and cereal all over me! I was in the middle of an epic Fruit and Veggie war! I was finally about to kill the Zucchini General!" I yell out.
All of their eyes were on me and they began laughing so hard till they fell on the floor with tears in their eyes. After they compose their selves Jeremiah comes over to me and hugs me. He gets jelly and honey all over me. "That's our little Sophy. And to think you're a senior in high school today but you still have the imagination of a little kid." He says before he starts laughing again.
"Alright y'all don't want to be late for the first day of school do y'all? Now clean up and get ready." My uncle says before he leaves to go back up stairs. I leave the boys to clean up the Man Cave as I go clean up my room.
"Great way to start off my senior year." I say as I enter my room.
