Chapter 2: Take Down Timmy

~:~Previously~:~

With no more pausing, Timmy smashed the hammer down the telescope. Wham. Wham. Wham. Wham. Wham! Wham! Wham! WHACK!

Each whack was more harder then the last. Timmy gave the final, finishing hit, and stopped to examine his work. It was dented all over; he almost flattened it; and he broke the lenses. He smirked and his eyes evil. More than satisfied with his actions, Timmy through his head back and laughed.

"Mwahahahahahahahahahahahaha!"

~:~On With the Story~:~

Timmy laughed and laughed about his deed. He had destroyed Mary-Lynnette's favorite telescope. But his giggling started to die down. "Ha. Ha ha… whatever." After his laughing fit, he had to fix so that the completely ruined telescope fit in the case, and left.

Mary-Lynnette was walking down the hall that led to her room. After a long debate, it was decided they would go shopping tomorrow, and Rashel agreed to let Gillian and Poppy help pick the stores. Bad choice in her opinion, but nobody knew dresses more than them.

She was hopping Ash didn't leave to hang out with Quinn and get caught cheating. She wanted to get her favorite telescope, and watch the beautiful sky with Ash. She wanted to correct him every time he thought he saw a ghost donut and tell him it is the Ring Nebula.

"Excuse Miss Lady." Mare stopped when she felt someone tug on her shirt. The tugger was a cute little boy with black hair and blue eyes. He was talking in an innocent and very, very cute like voice. Apparently, Mare has never met Timmy. Aww… how cute! Mare bent down to the child's level, and she patted his head.

"Aww… aren't you adorable!" Mare said with delight. I've got the magic touch. Timmy thought with arrogance. He flashed a chaste smile.

"Your very pretty Miss Lady. I'm playing Detective Timmy." So adorable! Mare thought.

"That's very sweet of you. Do you need a case Detective?" Mare said playing along. Timmy shook his head. He held the case to Mary-Lynnette's face.

"Nope. My case is who smashed this telescope!" Timmy said thinking it was no big deal. Mare's face went to shock.

"A telescope?" she asked to be sure. Timmy nodded.

"Yeah! I was giving that Mr. Ash guy some punch, because it was very hot. Then, he was being really mean. He took the punch a slammed the door in my face!" That jerk! Mare thought. "Then, I heard load thumping so I went in. I found a smashed telescope on the floor. Ash got really mean and told me if I told you, he would hurt me! So I took the telescope and case and ran out. I'm scared! Please don't let him hurt me!" Timmy hugged Mare and dropped the case. I think I got her. he thought.

Ash you are so dead! Mare hugged the little boy, but pulled back after a few seconds. She opened the case to confirm it was the ruins of her telescope. Not just any telescope, her favorite telescope. I'm going to kill you, Redfern! she thought. She picked up Timmy, left the telescope, and continued heading to her room. Mare held Timmy like a baby. He could feel May-Lynnette's anger and smirked.

Before Mare reached the final hallway, Ash ran around the corner. Mare glared at Ash with hatred. Timmy was still smirking with triumph. Looks like Ass just took a shower. Timmy started giggling. He switched back to his angelic, child voice. "Miss Lady, is Mr. Meany in trouble?" Mare nodded. Ash held his hands up.

"Mare, I know your mad about something. But it was the Devil Child! I swear!" Ash yelled hoping Mare would believe him. She didn't.

"Ash that is very immature of you. Blaming this poor little boy." Timmy used the same puppy dog eyes Rashel fell for. Mare smiled at him.

"Aww… do you believe that something so cute could be evil?" Mare questioned.

"YES!" Ash yelled. Mare placed Timmy down gently, and she turned to Ash with a glare so bad it would set a wild fire at first glance.

"YOU! You broke my telescope!" Ash knew the drill. RUN LIKE DEATH WAS CHASING YOU! It would be literal if Mare caught him.

Ash ran and ran…and ran. Timmy secretly followed, laughing and laughing…and laughing. It amazed Ash how Mare kept a close distance; if he stopped for a second, Mare catch him and grind him into dust. She must be really pissed.

They passed Poppy playing cards with James. They passed Jez and Morgead have an arm wrestle match. And they passed Delos and Maggie having a staring contest. Loser had to act like Galen when he took that other hit to the head, also from Keller, and thought he was 'H. M. Murdock' from "The A-Team".

~:~Flashback~:~

Keller was walking into the living room with Rashel, but out of the blue, Galen jumps out and lifts Keller over his shoulders with his left hand. Keller kept trying to knee him in the stomach.

"What the hell! Galen put me down!" Keller yelled with intense fury. Galen started jumping up and down. Rashel yelled, "Galen put her down!"

"KELLER! KELLER! I want you! I need you! I looooooove youuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!"

WACK!

Keller kneed Galen on the head. She checked his head for serious injuries. Rashel just said,

"Hey. This is like… déjà vu or something."

~:~Reality~:~

Mare chased him to the garden. They passed Quinn sitting, under the sakura tree, with Rashel in his lap. They were just talking.

"YOU'RE GOING TO NEED TO REST SOMETIME, MARE!" Ash yelled. That only made Mary-Lynnette run faster.

"I'M GOING TO BRAKE YOUR LEGS, REDFERN!" Mare yelled back. Timmy was following them, and was holding in laughs. He made it to the bushes, and grabbed a bulky stick. Wait. Mary-Lynnette was passing his throwing range. Now!

Timmy tossed the stick in front of Mare. And, of course, she tripped and fell flat on her nose. "Umph!"

Ash overheard and made an immediate U turn, heading for Mare. "Are you ok, Mare?" he asked, as he helped her stand up. They finally noticed stars were out. Ash just pointed to a random place. "Mare look! It's the ghost donut again." Ash said with the kind of excitement of a child getting a new toy, or Timmy seeing his evil plans in action. Mare was pissed off at him, but she ended up smiling and giggled at his stupidity.

"How many times do I have to tell you, Ash, that the ghost donut is the Ring Nebula?" Ash looked at her and was about to give some dumb answer. But Mare looked so beautiful. Her face was complemented by the glow she had under the moonlight. He just stared in aw.

"Ash Redfern! Are you ignoring me-" Ash cut her off with a kiss. He was pretty happy when Mare didn't kick him. Ash pulled away, and grinned like an idiot.

"You look cute angry, Mare. But mostly beautiful under these stars." Mare glared.

"I would have been able to look at these stars more closely, but YOU BROKE MY TELESCOPE!" Ash pulled her into a hug before she could pull back to kick him properly. He spoke to her with soft, true voice.

"Mare, I didn't do it. Honest." Mare was confused, and Ash knew it.

"But why would such a sweet little boy lie to me like that?" she asked. Ash chuckled.

"Because he's evil. Mare, did Rashel ever tell you what happened the night Quinn purposed to her?" Mare blinked.

"Yeah. She said her little brother lied to her, because he didn't like Quinn…Oh. Now I get it." Ash smirked and lifted her bridal style. Mary-Lynnette blushed wildly. "H-Hey!"

"It's late you need some rest." Ash stated and carried her back to the room for a good night's sleep.


Ash was once again sitting by himself on his room's balcony. But he wasn't so sad this time. He was sipping a glass of pill-free punch, and eating popcorn with extra butter. Quinn appeared beside him.

"I thought you were still clinging to Rashel." Ash said, Quinn smirked.

"I thought you were clinging to Mary-Lynnette." he said back. Ash just smiled and stared at the garden in front of him.

"I wanted to. I may not have Mare right now. But I have the next best thing."

"What's that?" Quinn asked.

"A good seat, popcorn and punch, and a really good show." Quinn joined looking at the garden and saw what he was talking about.

"Give me some popcorn." he commanded. They sat there and watch the show in front of them.

Mare was chasing Timmy all around the plain. Fists were ready, and Timmy was sprinting for his little life. "YOU BROKE MY TELESCOPE!"


A.N.) I got an idea of another one. Should I do it? Review!
