Inspiration for this was from an 80's remix of "Glamorous" by Fergie.. I know, embarrassing-
Heads up: I broke the 4th wall in this one. Hope you enjoy.
(Not really anything new. This entire BOOK doesn't even have a 4th wall to break.)Character notes;
Ninten's age: 18
Lucas's age: 15
Ness's age: 16 (cos it's his birthday. 😳)*** [This story doesn't make any sense because I started MONTHS ago and just finished it recently. So.. be prepared for something that makes no sense.] ***
_______________________________________A red-scarfed boy tapped his foot against the hard-wood floor impatiently. He repeatedly checked his watch second after second and grumbled, impulsed to start banging on the door.
"How long does it take for you to shit, Lucas!?" The boy yelled.
"I said I didn't want to come with you!! You ALWAYS lose me at Walmart and then security gets involved through the intercom and says 'Ninten, we have located your child for you to pick up.' Do you KNOW how HUMILIATING that is!!? ESPECIALLY SINCE I'M NOT EVEN YOUR CHILD!!!" Lucas yelled back.
Ninten sucked the inside of his cheek as he tried to think of something to say. He leaned against the wall beside the bathroom with his arms crossed and knew Lucas' statement wasn't exaggerated. Lucas was often mistaken to be his child because of how much he looked like an adult despite being only 18 years old. The reason was completely beyond him, he looked nothing like Lucas and Lucas looked nothing like him.
Ninten exhaled a long drawn out sigh. "That doesn't always happen. Look, I'll make sure you don't get lost this time. I don't have time for this. Today is an important day." He stated, "If I don't get the groceries today, Lloyd's gonna beat my ass.."
"And why can't you go by yourself?! You're legally an adult!!" Lucas retorted. He was close to a breaking point.
Before Ninten could respond, a baseball-capped boy walked in on the two. "What's going on?" He asked. Ninten froze, almost looking scared, but Lucas kept his composure from the other side.
"He wants-" Lucas started.
"Lucas refuses to come to the store." Ninten interrupted Lucas childishly.
"Lucas isn't the only one going. I also need to pick up a few things." Ness chuckled. "I'll admit.. it was kinda funny." He said, reminiscing about the day Lucas was lost at Walmart.
"It wasn't funny!!" Lucas roared, causing Ninten and Ness to almost jump.
"I'll get the cage." Ninten joked.
"I'll get the rope." Ness chimed in.
Little did both Ness and Lucas know.. Ninten had a little trick up his sleeve.
______________________________________
Ninten steered behind the wheel while Ness and Lucas sat in the back seat. Lucas had his arms crossed and was still mad about the whole ordeal, while Ness was the opposite.
Ness placed sunglasses on his face. No one noticed this, and silence still reigned until Ness spoke. "First, we get ice-cream. I'm paying." He said in a monotone voice.
"Dairy Queen?" Ninten asked. "BLIZZARDS!" He then blurted out once he got the idea.
Lucas made no reaction. He looked out of the window to avoid Ness and Ninten. Unfortunately, Ness kept annoying him by repeatedly elbowing his arm.

AcakJust a portfolio of some short stories based on the video game Earthbound/M🌍THER. These shorts don't belong to a specific story, hence why I made this book in the first place. This is just a foundation for my writing skills. Maybe I'll look back on...
