To David's surprise, Cathy showed up exactly 45 minutes after she hung up with Jennifer. David opened the door to see his short blonde aunt standing at the door. Of course, considering she was only 2 years older than he, he considered her more of a cousin than an aunt.
"Cathy? What are you doing here?" He asked, pulling her into a hug. She stepped inside and smiled at him.
"Jen called. Where is she?" She asked, looking up the stairs. Jennifer waved from the top of them and clopped down. The two women embraced.
"45 minutes to the second. You're so incredibly punctual it's scary," Jennifer said, laughing. Just then Sparrow entered the little reunion, holding a large bowl of cornflakes.
"I've got teh hand it to yeh, Dave, these really are great," he said, taking a large spoonful in his mouth. Cathy stared, eyes wide. Sparrow looked up from his bowl, mouth full, and said, "Oh, 'ello. 'o are you then?" As he spoke, little bits of cornflakes mixed with milk went spraying all over and milk dripped down his stubble covered chin.
"Jack! You're getting cereal all over the house!" Jennifer scolded. Sparrow grinned.
"Sorry luv. I mean, Jennifer. So, yeh gonna answer me question, lass?" He asked, turning his head to Cathy. She opened her mouth, looking like she was going to say something, but then decided against it and shut it.
"I told you he looked like Johnny Depp," Jennifer said, smirking. Cathy squeaked, but didn't move.
"Yes, Johnny Depp. Now, who are you?" Sparrow asked again. Cathy ignored him and turned to her niece.
"How did he get here?" She asked.
"Well, I was just putting up my dinner dishes, right? So I here this thump in the living room, and I'm like, oh shit, who could that be, so I grab the frying pan and I'm about to knock him out cold when-"
Sparrow cleared his throat loudly, cutting off Jennifer's story. She turned to him, annoyed.
"What?" She asked, hands on her hips. "I'm in the middle of a story here."
"Who the bloody 'ell is she?" He exclaimed, pointing at Cathy.
"I'm Cathy Klay. Nice to meet you, uh, Jack, right?" She extended her hand quickly. A little too quickly, in fact, because it shot straight up and knocked him smack dab in an extremely sensitive part of his body.
"Eek," he squeaked, holding himself and dropping his bowl. Jennifer burst out laughing, David cringed, and Cathy's eyes went wide and she started blushing.
"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry. Are you ok?" She asked, moving toward him. He scurried backwards, bumping into the wall.
Meanwhile, Jennifer had fallen on the floor, clutching her stomach, and was struggling to breathe. She seemed to stop laughing for a bit and catch her breath, only to roll onto her hands and knees and start pounding the floor.
"Shut up, will yeh?" Sparrow said, his voice a little higher than normal. Cathy put her hands on her hips and started at her niece. David glared.
"It's really not that funny. Imagine if that happened to you," her brother said. Jennifer snorted.
"What, if Cathy hit me in my family jewels?" She laughed. "I doubt it would affect me as much." A smile broke on Cathy's face, though she tried to hide it.
"Yes, well, it happened teh me, didn't it?" Sparrow said, finally standing up straight. He took a deep breath and picked up the cereal bowl that he had dropped. "Scuse me, folks, but I think I'll leave," Sparrow finished, walking off. Ok, limping off.

10 minutes later, the three family members had made their way to the den, talking over the current situation.
Jennifer, still snickering slightly, spoke up. "I can't believe you hit him in the balls." Cathy's face flushed.
"I told you, I didn't mean too! Now, what are we gonna do about him?" She asked. Jennifer stopped laughing and David shrugged.
"Maybe if...um...." David said, trailing off. They sat there for a few moments, thinking, before Sparrow entered.
"Speak of the devil," David said. Sparrow winked.
"Can one of yeh put a movie on? I'd prefer not teh have teh bang me head against the wall teh get some attention 'round here." Cathy cocked her head at Jennifer, confused. Her niece waved it off and got up.
"Sure. C'mon." The pair walked up the stairs, leaving Cathy and David alone to think. A minute later David exclaimed, "Ah HA!" and snapped his fingers, successfully scaring the wits out of Cathy. She tumbled off the chair she was sitting in and clutched her chest.
"Jesus H Christ! What the hell, David!?" She asked, panting. He helped her up excitedly.
"I've got it. I think. If we put him in the city time capsule, he'll be zapped back to his time!" His eyes were wide, and he spoke quickly. Cathy didn't share his enthusiasm.
"Uh huh. And what made you think of this idea?" She asked, raising an eyebrow.
"I saw it in some movie once," he replied, his smile fading. Cathy rolled her eyes and sighed.
"One of those crappy science fiction movie that you watch all the time?" She asked again. He nodded and sat back in a huff.
"They aren't crappy. And so far it's the only idea we've got, Ms. I've-got- to-shoot-down-everything-David-says." It was then that Jennifer walked in, looking decidedly ruffled.
"What happened to you?" Cathy asked. Jennifer ran a hand through her hair.
"I had a little scuffle with Sparrow. Don't worry, I came out on top." The two women smiled, but David, already weary of having Sparrow and his sister alone together, took it exactly the wrong way.
"WHAT? I'll kill him...." he said, about to storm out the door and punch Sparrow's light's out. Jennifer put her hands on his chest and pushed him down.
"Cool it. All I meant was, I won. I got my way," she said, trying to calm him down. He narrowed his eyes, but sat back.
"Hmmp."

As Sparrow sat upstairs, watching 'Sleepy Hollow', grumbling about how Jennifer beat him, he felt a strange sensation in his stomach. It was like an uncontrollable desire that he had never felt before. He turned off the TV and made his way cautiously down the stairs.
That was when the doorbell rang.
***
"Dammit, who the hell is that?" Jennifer said, getting up. She checked her watch and groaned. The other two in the room shrugged and followed her to the door.
"Aww, man," she complained. Before the other two could ask what was wrong, she saw Sparrow making his way down the stairs. "Jack! Get back up there!" She said, pointing to the room. He stood up straight, looking confused. Then he shook his head quickly, as if clearing his thoughts. Then Sparrow nodded and went back to his room.
"Who is it?" Cathy asked. Jennifer sighed, speaking quietly.
"It's this really annoying girl from school who said she would tutor me in math. She's absolutely crazy, she insisted on getting an 'early start'. So she picks the middle of the summer!"
Cathy and David exchanged worried looks. Jennifer sighed and swung open the door. The girl behind it had obscenely long, flowing blonde hair and strange purple eyes, that were obviously colored contacts. She was very tall, and her body seemed so perfect it wasn't right. Her chest was large, and her waist was tiny. Jennifer had often wondered how she could turn sharp corners, she looked so top heavy. Her skin was an odd color, almost orange. Jennifer snickered inwardly at the bad use of instant tanner.
"Jen! It's so wonderful to see you!" The girl exclaimed, pulling her into a hug. Jennifer awkwardly patted her back.
"Hey Mary," She said, giving a timid smile. Mary pulled away and nearly blinded the three family members with a giant smile.
"Gosh, Jen, how many times do I have to ask you to call me by my full name? It's just so pretty! Don't you agree?" She said. Jennifer nodded fakely and Cathy looked like she was going to throw up.
"Let me introduce you all. This is my aunt, Cathy." Jennifer pointed to her aunt.
The girl with obscenely long hair pulled a very frightened Cathy into a hug. "Aunt? You couldn't be an aunt! You're much too young!" She asked, a wide smile still plastered on her face.
"Uh, thanks. There were some strange family happenings. Don't ask, uh...what's your name?" The other girl smiled even brighter, if that was possible.
***
Upstairs, Sparrow felt himself being drawn to something downstairs again. [Is it that Cathy lass? No...she's pretty, but she did have a bad encounter with me family jewels....who could it be?] He thought to himself.
Finally, though, the pull was to strong. He exited the room and walked down the stairs just in time to catch the name of the girl with obscenely long blonde hair and unnatural purple eyes.
"My name is Mary Sue."
