"Doo do do dooo..." Lumen hums to herself as she decides to surf the net on Jack's computer. She's about to finish her little session when she realizes that there's an interesting website that catches her eye. It's a website that's full of ways to prank people, and Lumen lets her more mischievous side loose as she takes notes on all of the funny pranks she can do on Jack. "This is going to be fun, for me at least."
A nasty surprise
"Hey Lumen, did we buy more orange juice?" Jack asks Lumen as he looks in the fridge. "I swear we ran out yesterday."
"I don't think so." Lumen replies innocently. "I think that was just a glass you were saving for later."
"Alright, I guess I'll take it by your words." Jack says as he drinks the "orange juice". Lumen can't help but snicker as Jack spits out the "orange juice" and dumps the rest in the sink. "This must have been well expired orange juice in that case... Lumen?" Jack trails off as he realizes Lumen has escaped his sight. "Huh... Where'd she go?"
Curse disguised as a blessing
"Caramel apples? But it's not even fall!" Jack says as he looks at a series of caramel apples.
"I wanted to try it out because I may never get that chance when I get back to my world." Lumen replies. "Wanna have one?"
"Sure." Jack replies. He studies the apples warily and picks the center one as Lumen takes one of the other ones.
"Alright, go ahead and bite in." Lumen says as Jack takes a big bite out of the "caramel apple". Once he realizes that it does not taste sweet he starts gagging and spits out whatever he bit into. "Oh god! Onions! Why did it have to be onions?! Lumen!!!" At this point Lumen is on the ground laughing her butt off.
Flight of the canadian goose
"Alright, I guess I'll go ahead and do that." Jack says as he goes to take out the trash. In that time Lumen pulls out an air horn and tapes it to a door such that when Jack swings it open it will go off.
"It's practically foolproof!" Lumen chuckles as she goes into hiding. Jack heads back inside once he's taken out the trash and realizes Lumen is nowhere to be found.
"Huh, where could she have gone?" Jack wonders as he looks in the hallway and opens various doors. Once he opens the bathroom door...
HONK!!!
"GAH!!!" Jack shouts as he jumps up. "LUMEN!!!" Jack can hear her hysterical laughter from the room across as he shouts this.
Eight-legged friend
"Well I have no choice. I have to fight fire with fire!" Jack says as he pulls out a fake spider. "I know for a fact Lumen is behind these devious pranks. Two can play at that game!" And with that he innocently approaches Lumen, who's napping on the couch, and gently places the fake spider on her foot without her noticing, and he walks away. A few seconds later Lumen wakes and he hears the sound of victory.
"EEEK! GET IT OFF GET IT OFF GET IT- Huh?" Lumen stops screaming as she realizes what just happened. "I should have expected this."
Not so sweet now is it?
"At least I know we still have oreos, opened up nonetheless." Jack chuckles as he takes a bunch of oreos and strategically replaces the filling. Once he's done with that he puts them back, leaving them for Lumen to find. He walks away for a minute and that's more than enough time for Lumen to take one of the oreos and pop the whole thing into her mouth, only realizing at the end the vile trick Jack played.
"Oh!" Lumen shouts as she spits out the oreo and tries to wash out the toothpaste. "I am going to get him back! I'm going to pull the prank to end all pranks!"
Mayo rest in peace
"It's a good thing we had these doughnuts on hand." Lumen chuckles as she replaces the filling with none other than hot mayo, combining two things that Jack utterly hates. "This should be fun." And with that she leaves them out for Jack to eat. Without a second thought Jack bites into one, tastes the nasty difference... And then throws up. "Ooh... I didn't think he'd react like that..."
"Okay okay, you've won Lumen... Now you can stop pulling these pranks..." Jack says, weakened.
"I promise I'll stop." Lumen replies. "Maybe..." She snickers under her breath.
