Sorry I took so long to update!
The League Learns Gymnastics
Mina woke up the next morning at 6:30 feeling very refreshed. Unlike the other league members, she wasn't sore at all, because she had healed during her sleep. She quickly got dressed and walked toward the Library at 6:45. She had no intention of being tied up and dragged. She also wanted to count how many people actually were tied up. When she finally arrived at the large room (The "gym") she looked around and saw three people tied up and gagged.
The first one was Quatermain. He probably didn't think Skinner was serious, She thought. Next was Sawyer. He always sleeps late. The third was Jekyll. Mina was surprised. She didn't expect him to be tied up, because he never sleeps that late anyway, and she knew he believed Skinner. So, she walked over to Skinner, curious to know why.
"Oh, well, he was up early enough. He was actually walking here when I found him. But, I had some extra rope that I just couldn't let go to waste, so I tied him up anyway." Skinner said casually.
"Skinner!" She said angrily and ran over to untie the three 'captives'.
After they were freed, and the rest of the league changed into their gymnastics clothes, Skinner began telling them what they were to do that day.
"Alright. I'm going to change your positions today. Sawyer, you and Nemo will switch places. Quatermain and Harker, you will be on the beam today. Gray, you will be on floor, and Jekyll will be on rings. Get to your places!" He demanded.
Jekyll gulped and remembered what Skinner did to Quatermain the day before...
Skinner walked around and showed Mina, his new assistant coach, how to torture, err... direct the league members in their gymnastics. He pointed out that since Tom didn't even have enough strength to pull himself around the bar, she would have to make him do pushups. Lots of pushups. Then he showed her that since Jekyll couldn't hold himself up for long on the rings, he would also have to do pushups. Then he decided to make everyone do pushups, even if they didn't need to do them.
"Alright people, for the next couple of hours you will be doing some conditioning. That means pushups, sit-ups, that kind of thing. NO SLACKING! Now, start!"
"The next couple HOURS?! I'd maybe do that for half-an-hour, or even an hour, but hourS?! You're crazy!" Tom said (rather loudly) after hearing Skinners commands.
"Just for that, you have to do an extra hour." Skinner said, looking him strait in the eye.
"..." Tom and the rest of the league were speechless.
"Start your conditioning!" He demanded.
After four hours (Skinner made them do it longer than he said before) the league members were slumped up against a wall, resting and drinking water. Except Tom, who was still doing pushups, and who was also muttering to himself and looking insane.
"Err... Sawyer? You can stop now..." Skinner said after seeing what he was doing.
"Stop? I can....stop? Now? Haha!! Listen to him, Jawinka!" He said, twitching and talking to a safety pin, "He says we can stop! He doesn't know what Frank said though!"
"Err...Jawinka? Frank? Who are they...?" Skinner asked.
He didn't seem to notice Skinner had said anything. Instead, he continued talking to the safety pin:
"Hahaha... He doesn't know that Frank told us that if we stop, he'll throw carrots at us! Hahaha... but you're better than Frank, Jawinka. You're nice. Evil demonic bunnies like Frank aren't! But don't tell him I told you that! Or else he'll get his army of evil three legged camels and send them after us! That would be bad! Hahaha!"
"umm...Sawyer? I think you've done enough for today..." Skinner said picking him off the ground.
"NOOO!! I MUST CONTINUE OR ELSE FRANK WILL ATTACK!! MUST CONTINUE DOING PUSHUPS!!!" he screamed and started kicking and struggling franticly.
"MINA! GET THE ROPE!" Skinner yelled to his assistant coach.
Mina and Skinner grabbed Tom by the arms and legs and tied him up and stuck a cloth in his mouth, although he continued to struggle.
"NOOOORF!!! MUFT DO PUSFHUPF!!!!!" He screamed as several crewmembers came in and dragged him to his room.
"Err...I guess you people can leave too...we don't want any of you going insane..." Skinner said to the rest of the league.
Normally, they would have ran out the door, but they were too tired, so they just crawled.
"umm...You don't have to be here until nine tomorrow..." Skinner said as he watched them flop around, "So you might have time to eat breakfast..."
They would have cheered, but they were too tired, so they just continued crawling.
"And, erm... If you're not here by then I'm not going to tie you up and drag you, I'll just have some people carry you here..." Skinner said as a last attempt to make them happy, or, at least keep them from going insane.
They would have cheered this too, but, they were too tired, so they just continued on their way to their rooms.
As soon as they were in their rooms, Skinner lost some of his sympathy and decided that if Quatermain wasn't up, he was definitely going to tie him up and drag him there.
