4th of July (Open)

[Drake White]

((A tad late, but meh to you all!))

The spark to a small fire ignited onto a very short white fuse that led down to a pile of firecrackers as they was thrown into the air before they had a chance to go down and then explode in a sound of small pops that sounded like bullets to the ears as Drake White could hear his mother yelling, “You trying to hurt yourself!? That could’ve blew up your face!”

The sun was finally beginning to set as Drake just chuckled turning around to his pacing back and forth mother. David was still dragging out more fireworks to explode as Drake picked up another piles of firecrackers and lit the short fuse throwing them into the air ignoring her mothers short yell of concern as they exploded in midair before they could hit the ground.

“Damn it Drake quit it!”
“Don’t worry so much mom I’m not going to hurt myself.”
“You keep testing it like that, and you may end up with a blown off arm! How you going to play basketball with just one arm?”
“That would be so uber though, if I could still own all the other teams with just one arm. Either that or get one of those robotic arms to replace my missing one.”
“Not. FUNNY!”

Drake picked up a blue smoke bomb and lit it before throwing it to the ground, then quickly lighting a red smoke bomb and throwing it next to the blue one as the blue smoke was already going off, with red smoke now cross it path as the colors mixed and form a moment of purple smoke before going their own ways. “Sweet.”

“Stop pissing off your mother,” said David walking up to the two.
Having a big box in his hand he set it down in the middle of the street, Mary just started backing away not being a big fan of fireworks, or maybe it was because she knew they could seriously harm, or kill a person and her overprotected self knew no limits when it came to her son. David lit the firework and turned to walk away a fair distance from it as Drake set off in a run down the road watching it shoot up one after one and exploding in the air with sparkles light of different colors in the night sky, the firework reflecting in his eyes as a car was coming down the road behind him. “Car!” David said to Drake, as he quickly jumped out of the road during a spin in midair and landing on his feet on the grass. “Show off...”

[Kori]

Kori didn't like holidays, except for easter. The only reason he sort of liked the 4th, is the fact that it is the most dangerous holiday. Not that it was for Kori though, but he liked to see people do stupid things with fireworks.

Now he was walking around the suburbs hoping to see something at least slightly cool, or amusing. Thats when he saw some "idiot" lighting firecrackers then tossing them straight up in the air. When he heard a car coming from behind him, he simply did a matrix style back flip over it. Then continued walking down the street slower in hopes of seeing that stupid boy lose an eye or an arm.

However that didn't happen, Kori walked up to the boy and simply said, " Your going to lose an eye if you keep it up."

[Drake White]

Drake turned and blinked at the stranger before replying, “Hello to you too. Nah I’m not going to lose an eye, I been doing this since I was thirteen.”
“He loses an eye, he’s going to lose more body parts when his mother get through with him losing an eye.” David walked to both of them lighting another fire work and throwing it to the ground.
“There look at the pretty lights,” he said hinting sarcasm as he walked pass his wife.

Mary had her arm covering her eyes as the lights began just getting brighter and brighter as Drake looked into it without a care in the world, hardly affected by it like his mother was.
“I think I been blinded,” Mary said.
“Oh you aren’t blind woman,” David said.
“Don’t woman me, unless it’s the couch you want to sleep on.”
“I’ll just kick Drake out of his bed, and sleep there instead.”

Drake then started to ignore their back and forth conversation as he looked back over to Kori. “So, haven’t seen you around lately, who might you be?”
