My Annoying Brother 2 - the sequel!

If you are not familiar with the original, or have forgotten what might be important facts, you should probably (re-)acquaint yourself with it. The same rules apply - everything here is fiction (thankfully - well, except maybe that hot tub), apart from the names... So, without further ado, I give you the second installment of Thomas's continuing epic.

My Annoying Brother 2
By Thomas Cushing

Prologue

Well, you thought Frederick stopped being naughty. Well, think again. Do you know what he spent that $100,000,000.22 on? Well, the $.22 on “The Horrible Prankster’s Guide” (yeah, that’s him) which is about as big as the unabridged dictionary and the rest of his money on this kit that goes with it, which is about as big as a classroom. Now, let me tell you how he used them.

Chapter 1
(EXTREME) Action Replay of Frederick

Well, as you know, Frederick is about as annoying as annoying gets and it gets even more extreme with his prank kit. For example, he might glue a silver dollar to the sidewalk or dig a ditch and cover it with sticks, then leaves, then put a nickel on it. But let’s get to the story. Well, I was walking toward my room to do my homework when I noticed a bucket on my door. “Great!” I thought. So I opened the door just a bit and then pulled my hand out of the way. The bucket fell. I expected to see water come barreling out, but instead I saw… “Oh my god! It’s paint!” I watched as our beautiful carpet was ruined.
Then my mom walked up the stairs. “What’s going on?” she asked.
“This” I said pointing to the bucket and the paint splotch.
“Well, Thomas, I wish I could punish him, but ever since he made that secret room, I haven’t been able to find him,” replied my mom.
“Yes, well, better get to my homework,” I said. So, my mom went back downstairs.
You’re probably wondering what Frederick’s secret room is, aren’t you? Well, as I said, that kit is as big as a classroom, so he has to put it in a place, secret. First, he put it in the yard. Then one day, it disappeared. The entrance is probably from his room.
Anyway, I went into my room to do homework. I finished my homework and went to bed with only one problem. My pillow suddenly grew metal legs, got up and walked away! I was too tired to chase it.

Chapter 2
Frederick’s Big Attack

I woke up and ate breakfast (corn flakes with milk that tasted a lot like beaten toothpaste with water) and left for school with a backpack that gave me an electric shock. ************************************************
I came home with a question to ask my mom. “Hi, Dad,” I called as I ran past him. He looked like he wanted to tell me something and looked depressed at the same time. “I wonder what’s going on?” I thought.
I just started climbing the stairs, when I slipped. “Ow! What’s a bar of wet soap doing on the stairs?” I cried, even though we all knew. I kept climbing the stairs to look where my mom usually was, in her bedroom. But, she wasn’t there.
Maybe Dad would know,” I thought. So I went back down the stairs, avoiding the soap. “Hey, Dad. Where’s Mom?” I asked.
“That’s what I’ve been trying to tell you,” Dad replied. “She sat in an electric chair.”
“SHE GOT KILLED?!” I yelled.
“No, no, she’s just in the hospital,” Dad replied.
“I hate Frederick!” I muttered as I climbed the stairs. “Someday I’m going to find that secret room and catch him and it will be someday soon!” I vowed.

Chapter 3
The Illusions

I woke up in the middle of the night. “Tonight is the night I will find the secret room!” I thought. I got out of bed and walked to my door. It was open. “I hope Frederick hasn’t been in here,” I thought.
Just then I heard two female voices from downstairs. I listened more closely to hear their names. “Bobina and Bobindee!?” I thought.
I crept downstairs and looked through a small arch window that divided the stairs and the living room. Two weird looking women were in the living room. They were holding glasses of whiskey and watching ABC News. Just then I heard myself saying, “Get out of our house!”
They looked startled for a second and then asked, “What makes you think that we are going to do that?”
Just then, Martha, one of our cats, jumped out of nowhere onto Bobindee. “Eeeek!” she screeched. Then something amazing happened. Bobina and Bobindee disappeared. Yes! That’s right, disappeared! D-I-S-A-P-P-E-A-R-E-D, disappeared! Disappeared, vanished into thin air. DISAPPEARED!!!!!!!!! All right, I think I’ve made my point now. Anyway, as I was saying, Bobina and Bobindee disappeared along with the whiskey and the TV turned off.
Before I could say anything, Frederick came trotting down the stairs. “What ah you doin’ heya?” he asked.
“I was just getting a drink of water. What are you doing down here?” I asked. I noticed that there was a small, strange gun-thingy clenched by his greasy hands.
Just then, Martha growled and jumped onto Frederick. “Oweey! You controw dat ca ah your!” Frederick cried.
I decided that now was a good chance to get into Frederick’s secret room since Frederick was in the bathroom getting a bandaid. So I climbed the stairs.
Just when I was about to enter Frederick’s room, a better idea popped into my head. Here it is. I could wait until Frederick goes to bed. Then I could go into his room without the danger of Frederick coming into his room and catching me. Then I could find his secret room.
So I walked into my room. Then I slipped on 10 tennis balls. So that’s why my door was open earlier.

Chapter 4
The Secret Room

I waited for about one hour. Then I got out of bed. I quietly opened my door and snuck across the hallway. Then I opened Frederick’s door. “Wow!” I thought.
Frederick’s room wasn’t quite the same. It was crammed with prank junk. But still, his room is smaller than the box.
The path that was carved into the prank equipment only lead to two places, Frederick’s big chair and his bed. “What’s so special about that chair?” I thought. Frederick never even sat in it. I still looked around for a secret entrance. No sign of one.
Just then I saw an antennae poking out from under Frederick’s pillow. I pulled it out to reveal some sort of control thingy. I pressed a button on it. There was a soft groaning as the big chair moved aside revealing a trap door! I opened it up and climbed down the ladder under it.
“Wow!” I thought. Along with lots of prank stuff, Frederick’s secret room had a Bounce House, merry-go-round, massage chair by a desk and even a hot tub! “Isn’t Frederick too young for that?” I thought.
Anyway, I looked on the desk. I saw the small gun thingy. It was labeled ‘Illusion Gun’.
“So, that explains Bobina and Bobindee,” I breathed. “Well, I’d better leave. We know where his secret room is,” I thought. I picked up the remote control, left the secret room and went to bed.

Chapter 5
Winding It Up

I woke up the next day and told Dad about Frederick’s secret room. He went up there immediately and got Frederick grounded for three years.
Well, I guess this adventure wasn’t a complete failure. I mean, we got a hot tub and lots of stuff.
“Won’t Mom be happy when she gets home?” I thought.
