Chapter 1: Relationships
Who Get's the Last Laugh?
Jessie sighed tiredly as Hadji and Jonny fought against each other in
Questworld. A lot has happened since they were young teenagers, now
they were all a few years older, yet maturity remained quite the same.
Hadji and Jonny had both confessed their feelings of love towards her,
and she found herself to be equally attracted to both of them. She
couldn't help herself, they were both such different individuals, both
fun to be with. Hadji was the more introspective type, dark,
mysterious, a puzzle she had to fit. Jonny on the other hand was
impulsive, always wanting to do something, could never sit still.
So there they were, as usual competing for her attention. It was
flattering actually, to be the object of two men's hearts.
"Hadji give up you know I'm gonna beat ya!!" Jonny cried as he raced
Hadji on the virtual cycle.
"Oh on the contrary Jonny, it is I that will have the last laugh,"
Hadji grinned as he increased his speed.
"Ha! We'll see about that !!" Jonny yelled as he sped after Hadji.
Suddenly they were logged out of Questworld and back into reality.
"Hey! What happened???" Jonny exclaimed in surprise as he took his
visor off.
"Ah, I decided to change the game," Jessie smiled as she motioned for
the guys to follow her back into the house.Once inside she sat down on
the couch in the Quest living room and instructed Jonny and Hadji to
sit across her.
"What is this about Jessie?" Hadji asked curiously.
"Well, I was getting slightly bored with the virtual games," she
began. "Back in the olden days they didn't have virtual races tow in a
lady's hand.."
"You want us to fight for real?" Jonny asked hesitantly.
Jessie laughed heartily. "No silly, I want you guys to have a drinking
contest. I'm gonna pour you guys the strongest thing my dad's got
stashed in his cabinet and
who can manage to not collapse after one shot will get moi," she
finished.
"Hmm, I'm go if Hadj is willing," Jonny said looking at Hadji.
"I will be willing to participate," Hadji nodded solemnly as Jessie
smiled and stood up to get the drink.
"I'll get the glasses," Jonny volunteered getting up and then walked
towards the kitchen.
Hadji stood up as well and quickly ran to his room to retrieve
something.
A few momments later, they all returned, Jessie with the drink, Jonny
with two shot glasses, and Hadji with a towel from his room. They all
sat down on the floor, around a small coffee table.
Jessie got the two glasses and carefully poured out the drink. She put
one glass before Jonny and the other one before Hadji. Then she closed
the bottle.
"Are we ready gentlemen?"Jessie grinned widely as she looked at the
two boys who were staring at each other.
"Hey! What's that in the screen door??" Jonny suddenly yelped as he
pointed to the screen door to the backyard as both Jessie and Hadji
turned to look. He quickly poured a drop of lethal rat poison into
Hadji's drink.
"I did not see anything," Hadji informed them.
"Oh it must have been my imagination," Jonny said sheepishly as he
laughed inside. *Jessie's mine,* he thought happily.
They turned their attention back to the drinks.
"Are you ready?" Jessie asked them again.
"What's that???" Hadji suddenly yelped as he jumped from the ground
and pointed to the screen door again.
This time, Jessie and Jonny got up to peer at outside, as Hadji
quickly droped a quick dissolving poisonous pill into Jonny's drink.
"I'm sorry my friends, my eyes are fooling me," Hadji apologized as he
returned to his seat.
"Come on you guys, stop stalling," Jessie sighed as they finally
settled down on the floor. "Okay ready, get set, drink!!!"
Both Jonny and Hadji grabbed their drinks and chugged it down in one
gulp. Both of them suddenly felt dizzy and nasceus (sp?), they turned
to look at Jessie for help but all they saw was a grinning face.
"Guys, it wasn't necessary that you put poison in your drinks, what do
you think I let you drink???" She laughed manically as Jonny and
Hadji's mouths began to foam and they realized Jessie had tricked them.
"Now who get's the last laugh?" was the last phrase they heard after
the insane cackling erupted all around them.
THE END
