Chapter Twelve:
Madmax💗
"Mike, do you copy? Mike? Do you copy?" Dustin's voice echoed out of the supercomm.
"No!" Teddy snapped.
"Teddy? Is that you? Why are you on Mike's supercomm?"
"We technically share this supercomm." Teddy replied. "So what do you need Mike for?"
"We're going to the arcade, remember? Me and Lucas have 6 bucks in total, what's your guys' haul?" Dustin asked.
"Shit! I don't know! Lemme find Mike!"
"What do you mean you don't know?!"
"Hold on, call Will!"
Teddy jumped to her feet and ran up the stairs to her room. She opened her piggybank, and counted 5 dollars in quarters.
She ran down the hall to her brother's room.
"Mike, how much you got? I have 5 bucks here."
"I don't know, I don't know!" Mike replied. He was frantically digging around in his drawer until a lightbulb lit up in his head, and he stopped.
"Nancy's!" Mike ran into their older sister's room. He started digging around in her drawers and found her piggybank. He tipped it out over the bed and stuffed as many quarters as he could fit into his pockets.
"Isn't that stealing?" Teddy asked.
"It's not stealing, it's borrowing." He replied.
"What the hell are you doing?" Nancy asked as she walked in the room.
"I'll pay you back!" Mike said, grabbing Teddy's wrist and running down the stairs.
"I had nothing to do with this!" Teddy shouted.
"Mike! Get back here!" Nancy hollered as she chased the twins.
"Hey! No running in the house!" Mrs Wheeler scolded, but all three of them completely ignored her.
"What is going on?!"
Neither Teddy nor Mike answered, and they ran outside, jumped on their bikes, and started peddling off to the arcade.
