Pens and Martians
By Silver Sailor Ganymede
Kagura was sitting in class, bored. Usually it would have been hilarious to work in a group with Osaka and Tomo, but this time everone was being really quiet. Kagura sighed and wondered if she was in an alternate universe or something. She looked down and reached out for her pen, only to find that it was gone.
"Osaka, do you know where my pen is?" she asked.
"Ah think ya might have dropped it."
"Right, but can you see it."
"Well either ya dropped it or the Martians took it and transported it to the other side of the table."
"What?" Kagura asked, confused.
"Well the Martians took ya pen."
"What Martians, Osaka?"
"The Martians that live in that hole in the ceiling," Osaka gestured up to a hole in the ceiling where one of the tiles had recently fallen off.
"Right, Osaka, I'm sure" Kagura sighed. "Now where's my pen?"
"It's over here, on the other side of the table."
"Really?"
"Yeah, by my foot."
"Well did you see the 'Martians' take it?"
"Ya, this Martian," came Osaka's reply as she pointed at Tomo.
"Hey, I'm not a Martian!" Tomo snapped.
"Ya were in my dream last night," came Osaka's reply. "So ya must be."
"Right," Kagura sighed. "Hang on a minute, you took my pen, Tomo!"
"Erm… maybe."
Kagura glared at Tomo; if that girl thought she was getting out of here un-pranked she was so wrong… but maybe having Osaka call her a Martian was punishment enough in itself.
