Reese, Elliott, and Danny were sitting inside with Reese's four younger cousins. Their was a flood and the water was low. But her aunt said if they go out in the mud, they were going to wash the house with nothing, but their toothbrushes. The four boys were just as bored as the normally active (and mischievous) trio.

"You know know what I'm not staying in here, there is mud and water that's deep enough to use that homemade boat!" Reese exclaimed, getting up and then kicking one of her older cousins to wake him up.

"God Reese, what do you want?!" The kid yelled.

"Come on Jed it's adventure time!" Reese yelled, grabbing his wrist and pulling him upstairs to the attic.

"I didn't just hear that, she did not just say the cursed phrase?" Danny and the remaining four boys jumped when they heard a loud crash, a curse, and and an excited yell. "Oh lord save us all."

"Ahoy maties captain Reese Barton of the SS Might sink is taking you on a flooded town tour," Reese said happily. Everyone shrugged, knowing they weren't going to get out of it anyway. Jed helped them in, and Reese and him rowed half way down the street. Until Jed's brother Ezekiel let out an ear piercing scream.

"JED OUR SOCCER BALL!" Zeke pointed to a ball floating in the water. Before Reese could stop him, Zeke had his shirt off and was in mud up to his neck! The other two in the boat (Axel and Zane) pulled off their shirts and jumped in.

"ZANE JAMES BARTON, AXEL JACKSON BARTON, AND EZEKIEL RIVER BARTON GET YOUR MISERABLE HIDES OUT OF THERE OR I WILL BEAT THE MUD OFF OF YOU!" Reese yelled at the boys. Then Danny pushed her, but Reese grabbed her and pulled her in too.

Jed and Elliott were laugh and didn't see the look on the two girls' faces. Danny and Reese swam up, and flipped the boat and two boys' over.

That ended up with a huge mud fight, then having to climb into the house through the second floor window, and all of them doing two hours of cleaning and taking turns with the one bathroom. When the boys' (excluding Elliott) mom came home finding all of them asleep in the living room.
