Word Girl and the Seven Deadly Sins
Chapter 3
********************************************************************************************************************************************************************
It was finally the big day! The day that they would all be leaving for their big road trip.
Becky's alarm went off and she shut it off before it could fully wake up Bob. She walked over to his hammock and began shaking it a bit. "Bob, wake up. We need to finish up getting ready and then we need to eat
breakfast, grab our suitcases and leave." She told him as she kept on shaking him.
(I don't wanna get up) He whined as he rolled over so that his back was facing her.
"If you don't get up when I am done with this sentence I am leaving without you and I will have fun with Tobey as we stop by famous landmarks on the way." She told him as she crossed her arms and struck a sassy pose.
(I'm up, I'm up!) He told her as he bolted for the bathroom. He got the sudden urge to go.
At breakfast....
Becky and her family had some chit-chat about what she was going to experience.
"I can't believe my little girl is all grown up. This is the first summer you're going to be away from us..and you're going to help your friend find her family. That is so sweet of you." Said Sally Botsford as she cut up her
pancakes and ate them.
"Yeah.." Said Becky as she rubbed the back of her neck. "TJ, can I talk to you real quick...alone?" After excusing themselves from the table Becky explained to him her situation involving the missing library book. He was
surprised when she gave him permission to go into her spaceship hideout to look for it there.
"Wow, and I thought I was irresponsible." Joked TJ, earning a glare from Becky.
"Look, if you do this......I'll let you hang out in the secret hideout whenever you want as long as you don't mess up anything." She told him honestly.
"Deal." He told her, holding out his hand for her to shake. Becky gladly shook it and together they went back to breakfast.
Meanwhile......
Tobey and his mother had slept over at the Winchester house to save them time and to be able to kill two birds with one stone.
They were eating breakfast when the honk of a horn startled them.
"That must be Sam with the RV." Said Dean as he ate his piece of pie and drank his coffee. (See what I did there?)
Quickly clearing their plates and doing some last minute packing like their toothbrushes and other things, Jackie and Tobey got their luggage and walked outside to the camper. Their parents were already outside.
"Well, this is where we part ways....for now." Said Dean. "I sure am going to miss you kiddo. Be sure to take lots of pictures for me, ok?" He told her as he ruffled her hair a bit like he used to when she was little.
"Daaad, don't mess up my hair please." She whined using her funny voice on him.
"Tobey I love you but if you do anything illegal I will leave you there to think about what you did." She told him half joking and half serious.
Tobey smiled weakly at his mother. "Yes mother and if I have the time I will be sure to send you a postcard or a digital one to save on postage." He told her seriously.
"You've grown up and matured so fast. I thought you would never mellow out enough to get a girlfriend until you were at least in your 20's." She told him mostly joking.
"Mooom." He whined, losing his British accent for a moment. "You're embarrassing me." He muttered low enough just for her to hear. He quickly pulled her in for a hug. Truth was, he was indeed getting taller, he towered
over her now in his height. Over the summer he had gotten taller, he was still nerdy but he was now lanky but Becky didn't mind that her boyfriend now was so tall she barely came up to his shoulder. Becky only saw this as
more of him to love.
Both parents hugged their kids as they loaded their luggage onto the RV and got onto it themselves. After the kids left they went back inside and went back to sleep.
Meanwhile.....At Becky's house.
Becky, Bob, along with their family and close friends were waiting on the front lawn for the RV to come and pick them up. While they waited, Becky talked for a bit with Scoops and Violet.
"I'm really going to miss you guys this summer." Said Becky, smiling sadly to her friends.
"We're going to miss you too Becky. But don't think of this as goodbye, think of it as a see you later. We can always text and or video chat if we have time." Said Violet, looking to the bright side.
"That is, if we can get coverage." Scoops pointed out, dampening the mood a bit.
Before Bob could make a smart comeback, they were startled by the honking of the horn of the RV as it came into view. Becky began hugging each person that came individually. She hugged her parents last, since they
meant a lot to her. If it wasn't for them adopting her, she would probably be living somewhere else.
"Mom, dad, you're the greatest parents anyone could ask for." She told them as she hugged them tight but not too tight.
"We love you Becky, just be sure to make smart decisions." Said her dad.
"And wear lots of sunblock and bug spray." Said her mom as she handed Becky a tube of sunblock and a bottle of bug spray.
"Thanks mom, thanks dad." Said Becky as she accepted the items and handed them to Bob. She gave each of her parents a kiss on the cheek and picked up her luggage and Bob picked up his. Together they made it onto
the RV where Jackie, Tobey and Sam were inside and waiting for them. Becky gave one last wave before she entered after Bob and shut the door behind her. Sam quickly told them the rules and that if they needed to use
the bathroom to tell him so that they could make a pit stop because the bathroom on the RV could only handle #1.
"Are you ready to help me find my family?" Asked Jackie to Becky. Since Jackie didn't really need her glasses she had on a pair of sunglasses, a large sunhat that had a pink ribbon around it, her long hair was in a 13 strand
braid and she wore a pink, flowing sundress that showed off her curves quite nicely with matching pink sandals. Becky was wearing a light green tank top that flattered her figure, black shorts and sneakers. Tobey wore an
orange t-shirt and cargo shorts with sneakers, he loved how he and Becky did not have to dress so fancy around each other all the time.
"Ready as I'll ever be." Said Becky as she made sure Bob was strapped into his car seat. They all weren't entirely sure if Bob would be allowed in all 50 states so to make it easier on them, they were planning on disguising
him as a baby if they had to. Becky quickly noticed that Jackie was looking a bit sad.
"Hey, are you ok?" She asked Jackie, as she buckled up herself.
"It's just that.....Rex promised me he would be here to say goodbye before we left and he never showed." Jackie looked at her hands and sighed.
Becky placed a reasurring hand on her shoulder. "I'm sure he was just busy...with..something." Said Becky, not knowing what else to say.
Tobey looked up from his crossword book. "I'm sure he will text or call you any minute now to let you know he is sorry." Almost as soon as he said it, there was a knock at one of the windows....
"Jackie! I'm sorry I couldn't make it to say goodbye to you, I was busy dealing with another villain this morning." It was Kid Math who was now hanging onto the side of the RV as they came to a stop at a red light. Jackie
quickly made her way to the window and unlocked it, letting in the hero.
"Rex, you made it." She hugged him tight and he hugged her back. "I would have called you but because I had to get up so early I forgot my phone and I was too busy to go back for it and..." She cut him off with a quick
kiss. "Well you're here now." They were about to kiss again when they were interrupted by a loud 'ahem'. Sam looked to his niece who was still embracing the superhero. "Do you want to explain to me why you two are
hugging?" Jackie sat next to her uncle in the cockpit and explained to him that Rex and Kid Math were the same person, she also told him of her other persona and of Becky being Word Girl. Kid Math had gone home to
avoid accidentally coming along with them.
"Wow, so all of you except Tobey are now heroes of some sort? That's actually pretty cool. Are you going to start your own league of heroes?" He asked her.
"We never really thought of doing that before, but now that you mention it, it could...potentially happen. But maybe when we get back home." Jackie thought this over in her head.
"Want to ride in the cockpit until we get to our first pit stop? I get lonely up here all by myself." Sam told her, not joking about the being lonely part.
"Of course uncle Sam. I want to here more stories about when you and Dad were kids." She told him, earning a chuckle from Sam.
"Alright. Do you think the two love birds will be ok back there?" He asked her gesturing to Tobey and Becky who were both either asleep or reading a novel.
"They'll be fine, they've got Bob to look out for them." She looked over and Bob was sound asleep along with Becky. They were both drooling a bit and Becky was leaning a bit on Tobey.
Jackie sighed. "This is going to be a long trip."
Sam scoffed. "You should have seen us when we were ghost hunting."

Wow, you guys. I love you all so much for commenting and stuff. Originally for the reveal where Tobey finds out that Becky is Word Girl I was going to have it be very different from what I originally wrote. I was going tohave Tobey be upset with her for not telling him and Becky gets so upset in return that with Huggy she flies so fast she ends up in another dimension. That was a thought we tossed when it would have made slightly more
sense if she time traveled but that's why it didn't make the cut. I really didn't want to do a time traveling one. In another idea on how they end up in a different dimension I was going to have Mr. Big perfect his mind control
ray to where when he mind controls people they don't have their eyes turn green. I even had ideas on where they would end up. It was originally going to be taking place in another dimension. But I went with road trip
because I got the idea from my sister who wanted to travel across USA with her friends before college in an RV. She didn't get to because all her friends were busy and short on cash. But luckily, Becky and her friends get to
take that trip for her. Where will they end up? How did Jackie's uncle Sam obtain the files on where they live? Do they have similar powers to Jackie/Envy? Let's get on with this chapter and find out!
TO BE CONTINUED IN THE NEXT CHAPTER...
Thank you to everyone who read this and sorry for not having updated in a month. I need beta readers to read the next chapter before I publish it to give me notes on it. I would really appreciate the help.
