New Trampoline
Aries, Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Libra, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces were in the living room.
"I'm bored," announced Libra
"Go swimming in one of our two pools," suggested Pisces.
Libra sighed. "I'm getting kind of tired of swimming."
"Let's get a swing set," suggested Taurus.
"I don't thinks that's such a good idea." Cancer looked at Aries.
"No! It's a very good idea." Aries grinned.
Aquarius shook her head. "Somehow I doubt that."
"Where's Gemini, Leo, Sagittarius and Scorpio?" asked Virgo.
"Sagittarius is upstairs. She's still trying to get over her parents death," replied Capricorn.
Cancer looked sympathetic. "If I were her I'd be crying for days."
"Sagittarius is like that. She tried her best to hide her emotions." Capricorn smiled sadly.
"When I'm sad, I let others know so I can get a hug." Cancer elbowed Aquarius.
"I know, I like giving you hugs." Aquarius smiled.
"No one comes to me for hugs. Except Scorpio but he also hides his emotions. I know! Group hug!" announced Pisces.
"NO!!!" Aries stood up and ran away.
"Well if Sag is sad, let's cheer her up," suggested Virgo.
Then they heard a knock on the door. Taurus opened the door, saw who was standing behind it, and shut it again.
"NOT COOL!" yelled Leo on the other side of the door.
"You'll want to open up. We have a surprise!" announced Scorpio.
"Hey losers. We'll go and use the surprise without you then," warned Gemini.
"SURPRISE?!?" asked Aquarius, Virgo, Capricorn, Cancer and Pisces at the same time.
"Yup," replied Gemini.
"I'll only knock one more time~" sang Scorpio. Aquarius, Virgo, Capricorn, Cancer and Pisces all ran to the door and opened up.
"Miss me?" asked Leo.
"No," replied Libra.
"I love you too Libra." Leo jumped in her arms.
"You guys bought a trampoline?" asked Taurus.
"Yeah. Didn't you see it?" asked Gemini.
"Before you shut the door on us," added Scorpio.
"Nope," replied Taurus.
Pisces squealed excitedly. "Come on. Let's set up the trampoline."
Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn, Cancer, Leo, Gemini and Scorpio brought the trampoline to the back yard. All the others followed except for Virgo.

(Knock, knock)
"Who's there?" asked Sagittarius.
"Me," replied Virgo.
"Oh. Come in."
Virgo walked in Sagittarius' room. "Are you alright?"
"I'm here too." Libra also walked inside.
Virgo spun around and looked at Libra. "Wow I didn't know I was being followed."
"I'm fine," replied Sagittarius.
"BEEP BEEP BEEP! Oh sorry, that was my lie detector." Libra looked at Sagittarius suspiciously.
"Sag, we heard about your parents..."
"I'm fine. Like, it was sad and all but I knew I wouldn't see them much anymore. I just expected to see them again before they... You know."
"Feel free to cry." Libra who Sagittarius a hug.
"I don't need to cry."
Virgo looked at her sadly. "Sag."
"I'm alright. Just a bit sad...but whatever. Where's Aries and Leo? I wanna do something crazy."
"Outside on the new trampoline," replied Libra.
"TRAMPOLINE?!?" Sagittarius ran out of the room and fell down the stairs."OW!"
***
"It's beautiful!" Leo struck a pose.
Taurus put the springs in place. "Leo... We didn't even set up the net.
"Screw that. Who needs a net?" asked Aries.
Cancer sighed. "With you crazy signs we DEFINITELY NEED A NET."
"Or else someone will break an arm. Guaranteed," said Aquarius.
"HURRY UP I WANNA HAVE FUN!" screamed Pisces.
Capricorn raised an eyebrow. "Then maybe you could help."
"Okay!" Pisces helped them out springs in the trampoline.
"Where's the rest of the springs?" asked Scorpio.
"Here." Gemini gave Scorpio a few springs.
"This is going to be fun. I can't wait to try a front flip!" announced Capricorn.
"I can't wait to bounce in the air!" cheered Sagittarius.
"Where did you come from?" asked Aries.
"Well-" started Leo.
"Never mind. I don't need that answer."
Virgo and Libra ran outside.
"Get it set up yet?" asked Virgo.
"Screw the net. I wanna bounce," pouted Leo.
Scorpio sighed. "Maybe we should just do that and wait for someone to break an arm."
"Yay! Trampoline time!" Said Leo ran over to the trampoline.
"He wasn't being serious." Libra held Leo back.
"Almost done," announced Taurus.
"Well, actually, we're not almost done," announced Gemini.
"They don't have to know that," shushed Taurus.
"Go swimming in the pool while you wait," suggested Capricorn.
Aquarius put a pole in place. "Umm... You're not doing anything either."
"But I'm not complaining," retorted Capricorn.
"But won't we get out clothes wet?" asked Pisces.
Then Aries, Leo, Sagittarius, Gemini, Scorpio and Capricorn jumped in the water with all their clothes on.
Taurus groaned. "Damn it guys. Now it's gonna take longer to get this trampoline set up."
"WEEEEEEEEEEE!" Pisces jumped in the pool.
"Anyways, now that the distractions are gone, maybe we can work in peace," said Virgo. Then Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Libra and Aquarius set up the trampoline.
"Screw this." Libra jumped in the pool with the other zodiacs.
"Now I want to join them so bad," whined Cancer.
"But we need people setting up the trampoline," protested Virgo.
Aquarius looked at the pool longingly. "But they're having so much fun."
Gemini sighed. "Oh well. Now let's all work in peace."
Then the speaker that someone brought outside was blasting rock music.
"Screw you Aries," said Virgo. Aries stuck out her tongue and jumped back in the pool.
"Hey. With four people, we can still put up the trampoline quickly," said Taurus.
"Three. There's three of us. Cancer snuck off," replied Aquarius.
Taurus looked at Cancer who swam around in the pool. "I'll help because I actually want this trampoline set up."
"Me too. We'll be the first ones allowed to test it out," announced Aquarius.
"Good. Wait what kind of emo music does Aries listen to?" asked Virgo.
"IT'S NOT EMO IT'S PUNK!" screamed Aries from the pool.
***
After a while, the trampoline was set up.
"Trampoline time!" announced Gemini. Then everyone ran over.
"No. Me, Virgo and Aqua get to go first since we actually finished putting it together," announced Taurus.
"Fine!" Everyone else went back inside the house. Taurus, Virgo and Aquarius got on the trampoline.
Virgo smiled. "Oh wow this is fun."
Aquarius tried to do a front flip on the trampoline. "I almost landed it."
"Watch me do that." Then Taurus tried, but landed on his back. "I may need a bit of practice."
"Watch this." Then Virgo jumped up and landed in a ball. Taurus and Aquarius were bouncing around her so Virgo went flying up in the air.
Aquarius smiled. "And this is why I didn't join the pool party."
"Yeah!" agreed Taurus.
***
"Okay can we get on now?" asked Cancer. The others walked back outside.
"Sure," replied Aquarius. Then Taurus, Virgo and Aquarius got off the trampoline.
"We'll go based on elements," announced Gemini.
"Water signs first!" screamed Pisces, Scorpio and Cancer as all three of them took off their shoes and got on the trampoline. Everyone else went back inside to wait for their turn.
"Look at me! AHHHHH!" screamed Pisces.
Cancer chuckled. "Front flips are easy to do on trampolines. And I'm not even that flexible."
"Watch this." Scorpio did a back flip.
Pisces clapped. "That was amazing Scorpio!"
Cancer looked at Scorpio in disbelief. "I'd try that but I'm scared I might snap my neck trying."
Scorpio slipped on a puddle of water. "Look. We're making the trampoline all wet and slippery because we just came out of the pool."
"We are water signs after all," said Pisces.
"Let's run around and see who falls down first since the trampoline is wet," suggested Scorpio.
"Sounds fun," agreed Cancer. Then all three water signs ran around the wet trampoline.
"AHHH!" Scorpio he fell and crashed into Cancer.
Pisces grinned. "I win."
"Let's go again," said Scorpio. Then everyone ran around and Pisces fell forward and purposely pulled Scorpio down with her.
"I win!" announced Cancer.
"Well, this was convenient." Scorpio landed on top of Pisces. Then Pisces kissed him.
"Eww guys. Not right now." Cancer covered his eyes. Then he jumped over them.
***
"Someone else's turn," announced Scorpio as the water signs walked inside.
"Us!" volunteered Capricorn. Then he ran out the door. Taurus and Virgo followed. All three earth signs climbed onto the trampoline.
"Let's see who can jump the highest!" challenged Taurus.
Virgo put her hands on her hips. "Challenge accepted." They all kept trying to jump as high as they could.
"LOOK! I'M GOING HIGHER THAN THE REST OF YOU!!!" screamed Capricorn.
"NOW I'M GOING HIGHER THAN YOU!" screamed Virgo.
"NOW I'M GOING HIGHER AGAIN!" screamed Capricorn.
"NOW I'M GOING HIGHER THAN BOTH OF YOU!" screamed Taurus.
"NOW I'M- AHHHHHH!" Capricorn fell forward, knocking Taurus down.
"Haha losers." Virgo stuck her tongue out.
Taurus grabbed Virgo's leg and knocked her down making her fall on top of Capricorn and Taurus. "Who's the loser now?"
Capricorn chuckled. "Now we're all losers."
Virgo pumped her fist in the air."Loser power!"
"I wonder what would happen if all of us zodiacs got on at the same time," said Taurus.
Virgo shrugged. "I don't know. Usually trampolines can only carry a certain amount of weight."
"Yeah, but that's why they bought this HUGE trampoline. It's way bigger than normal trampolines," explained Capricorn.
Virgo shrugged, again. "Check the box afterwards."
Capricorn grinned. "Okay. But I bet this time I can jump higher."
***
A while later, the earth signs walked inside the mansion.
"MY TURN!" screamed Gemini.
"Okay the air signs will go now," announced Libra. Then the air signs ran outside.
"I bet I can do a backflip." Gemini flipped backwards and landed on his feet but then fell back.
Aquarius smirked. "Looks like you can't land it."
Gemini crossed his arms. "Yes I did! I landed but then I fell."
"Still doesn't count. I'll try to learn how to do a front flip," announced Libra.
Aquarius tried to do a front flip but didn't land on her feet.
"Try tucking your feet in when you flip," suggested Libra.
"Like this." Gemini tried to do a front flip but his feet slipped on some water and he fell again.
"Haha," laughed Libra.
Gemini frowned. "There's water or something on this trampoline."
Aquarius rolled her eyes. "Yeah right."
"No, seriously!"
"Sure." Then Libra tried to do a front flip and fell forward.
Aquarius tried to do a front flip and landed it. "Yes! I landed it!"
"Yay. Now how did you do that?" asked Libra.
Gemini wiped a bit of the water from the trampoline on Aquarius and Libra. "See? The trampoline IS wet."
Aquarius shrugged. "Probably from the water signs." Then the air signs kept trying to do flips.
***
"Someone call out to the fire signs," said Libra.
"COMING!!!" Leo, Aries and Sagittarius all ran downstairs at the same time. Leo (who was in the lead) tripped up making Sagittarius and Aries also trip and fall on top of him.
"Hopeless," muttered Gemini as he helped Aries up.
Aquarius helped Leo and Sagittarius up. "Wow. You guys even picked a fight with the stairs."
Then the fire signs darted for the trampoline.
"Let's all jump at the same time," suggested Leo.
"Okay," agreed Sagittarius and Aries. Then at the same time they all bounced forward and Aries went flying upwards.
"How did you do that?" asked Sagittarius.
Aries shrugged. "I don't know. Let's try again." Then they all jumped at the same time and Sagittarius went flying upwards like Aries.
Leo wanted to fly up too. "Now do that to me!"
"Okay." Then they all bounced at the same time, making Aries and Sagittarius both fly upwards.
Leo crossed his arms. "No fair."
"Let's keep trying until Leo gets to fly up," said Sagittarius. Then they all jumped and Leo flew out of the trampoline.
"LEO!" Aries and Sagittarius climbed out of the trampoline. Leo was lying on the ground with his tongue sticking out. Aries kicked him.
"OW!" Leo as he sat up.
"He's alright." Sagittarius released a sigh of relief.
Aries smirked. "Heh. I told them the net was useless. Leave it to us to manage to get someone hurt even with a big net."
"Guys... My arm." Leo held his arm and winced in pain.
"Did you break it?" asked Sagittarius.
Leo inhaled sharply. "I think so."
"Go get the others!" ordered Aries. Sagittarius ran inside screaming as Aries sat outside with Leo.
