The Battle Was Not Going Their Way

Title: The Battle Was Not Going Their Way
Pairing: None
Rating: PG
Warnings: Random and cracky
Disclaimer: I obviously don’t own Heroes.
Summary: Well, it's obviously not going their way.
Notes: Written as a one-shot but I have other parts planned now. So yeah, there will be an explanation. Much thanks to [livejournal.com profile] flying_monkees and [livejournal.com profile] thepansythug for beta'ing for me. Written for the [livejournal.com profile] mission_insane prompt Lettuce.

“Holy shit men!” Peter yelled as a head of lettuce whizzed past his head. “We need to get the hell out of here! Retreat! Retreat!”

“Dear god, do I look like a man to you?” Claire howled as she took aim and fired at a particularly huge head of iceberg, watching as it exploded in a brilliant shower of green. She whooped in triumph, ignoring her uncle's glare as he signaled for their motley band to retreat.

Sylar completely ignored Peter as he popped his head up out of their trench and pulled the trigger on his automatic, taking out several heads of romaine.

“Damn you lettuce!” he bellowed, ducking back down and narrowly missing getting taken down by a vicious round of radicchio. He kept aiming and firing, not stopping until he was finally yanked along towards the rest of the rebels by Bennet.

Random, cracky, and kind of perfect for a rainy Saturday afternoon. Thanks for the laugh! I can just envision the lettuce exploding and going everywhere. LOL

Love!

*giggles* I know, it amused the hell out of me. I'm glad it cheered up your afternoon and thank you for the lovely comment!

"A vicious round of radicchio" is the best part aside from Sylar's bellowing. So funny. I love how this evokes hints of the setting. You have a knack for writing satisfying drabbles.

I actually had to look up other kinds of lettuce and that is the coolest looking lettuce ever.

*blushes* Thanks, I'm enjoying writing them. And it's the only way I'll get MI done at all. Lol

I always look forward to your comments, they make me all warm and cozy.

LOL You already know how much I love this! I still can't get over Claire being upset over Peter's use of the word "Men" *giggle* So good!

And of course, Sy bellowing and not wanting to stop fighting until Bennet has to pull him away. Just too great hun!

I can't wait for you to post the next part! *big grin*

*giggles* He's not very PC. Or bright really.

And you know that mental image is why I wrote it.

It will be posted soon, I promise!

*giggles* I said it last night and I'll say it again: hilarious. The image of Peter yelling "Holy shit, men!" and Sylar flipping out on some radicchio... priceless. I can totally picture it happening in slow-mo, with dramatic war music strings playing in the background. *cracks up some more* Yays for prequels!

*giggles* The ridiculousness of it appealed to me. Also, I got to learn about the awesomest looking lettuce of all time.

I hope to post the next one tomorrow.

Thanks for the comment!
