Keeper of the Lost Cities: Truth or Dare

Chapter 10

A/N: Chapter 10!! Finally... after forever... :'(I cant tell you how so so sorry I am!

  "Truth."

  "Okay, what is one of your most embarrassing moments?"

  Dex blushed. "Um... one of them was probally when the triplets put some reekrod  in my breakfast the night before I was going to try out for Foxfire. I tried to brush my teeth a lot, but I couldn't get the stink to go away. So whenever I went to talk everybody smelled my bad breath. I'm pretty sure the council let me out early because they didn't want to smell my breath anymore."

  Biana giggled. "Wow, I'm glad I don't have siblings who do that to me."

  Fitz rubbed his hands together and grinned evily. "Now I have some more ideas."

  "Okay, I choose Keefe next." Dex turned towards his victim. "Truth or dare?"

  "Dare, duh," Keefe said.

  Dex thought for a moment. "Maybe it's time Keefe found some stylish new hair gel to use," he said. "What do you think?"

  "I'm thinking that your definition of 'stylish' and my definition of 'stylish' are not the same," Keefe jumped in. "And I also think that we've done enough with my hair tonight."

  Dex sighed. "Fine," he said. "How about--" 

  "Wait," Biana cut him off. "Do you hear that?" 

  "Hear what?" Sophie asked. 

  Biana walked over to the door. "Oh, someone's knocking." She opened the door.

  Della walked in. "I made a batch of ripplefluffs and I thought you guys would like to be the taste-testers." 

  "Thanks, mom!" Fitz said, grabbing one from the the tray Della had set on the ground. "Mmm, mint."

  "Yeah, thanks," the others echoed, each also grabbing one.

  "Wait-- don't eat yours yet!" Dex told Keefe. "Your dare is to eat the ripplefluff with only your elbows."

  "What's a dare?" Della asked. "Nevermind, I don't want to know. I'll leave you guys to your game. I have some more downstairs if you get hungry."

  When Della left, Keefe started trying different ways to get the ripplefluff  into his mouth. He tried balancing it on one elbow and trying to reach it with his tongue, holding it between his  elbows, and flipping it into his mouth. Eventually he just snapped his teeth at it. He flung it up into the air in exasperation -- and caught it.

  "Finally!" Keefe exclaimed. "That was such an annoying dare. Okay, my turn. I choose---"

  "Wait, you just had a turn. It should be somebody else's turn. Like mine," she said. "Okay, Fitz.   Truth or dare?"

  "Um, truth."

  Biana grinned evilly. "Perfect." Fitz grimaced. "How about you tell us about the first matchmaker question that comes to your mind, and you have to say what your answer was." Biana paused, and then added, "And remember, you have to tell the truth."

  Fitz groaned. "This is exactly why I don't normally play truth or dare with you. He thought for a moment. "Actually, the first question that I can think of is 'What is your full name?'"

  Biana raised an eyebrow. "Yeah. Mmmhm." 

  "No, really. I was thinking 'Oh no, the first question I'm going to think of is going to be really embarrassing!' and then I just thought, 'well, what was the first question?' and then there you have my answer."

  Biana paused for a moment and then sighed. "Ugh, fine, whatever. That wasn't interesting at all."
