"Finally," Kai muttered, "The first meeting! We're gonna get outta here!"
Kai did a little "yes!" and clenched his fist.
"Uh, Kai?" Ray looked at his surrounds.
"What, Ray?" Kai gathered his cool.
"Do you really think we can talk about this in here?"
The whole group were seated on upside down laundry baskets with piles of clothes and uniforms everywhere. Washing machines were rotating regularly, making them shout to be heard.
"Well-it was the only place I could find at such short notice!" Kai yelled.
"I'm so sorry," Sydney said for the millionth time.
Ray tried to comfort Sydney.
"It's not you Sydney, it's a psychological thing. Don't blame yourself."
Kai laughed weirdly/insanely/annoyedly and then glared at Ray, pointing to his hair.
"Sydney's a Looney tune! Ha ha haha ha looney, that's looney….Heh he," Max giggled to himself.
"Teacher incoming." Kenny warned.
"You know what to do people!" Kai yelled. "Places everyone!"
The cleaning lady walked past them and to the washing machines, putting another basket of clothes in. Max let out a really loud laugh that he was trying to keep in.
"What are you boys doing here with this sweet little girl?" The lady eyed them suspiciously.
Kai stood up first.
"Max, take care of Sydney." He whispered back.
"Roger!" Max gave Sydney a bag and two sticks.
"Max," Sydney whispered. "What"
"Shhhhhhh, just do what monkey do ok?"
"Hi Mrs.Cleaning-Lady, what are you doing here?" Kai said innocently, if that was possible.
"I work here." She raised an eyebrow.
"Oh yeah, about that….." Kai brought his hands together infront of his face and pleaded.
"Please Mrs. Cleaning-Lady ma'am, don't tell on us!" Kai's eyes got watery.
Ray stepped up and pretended to comfort Kai as he pretended to cry.
"If anyone found out we made a club everyone'll make fun of us." Ray said, looking back at the lady.
The cleaning-lady looked at them, clearly confused.
"W-why? What kind of club is this?"
Max looked up from the knitting he and Sydney were doing. He pushed up his glasses (which were Kenny's) and they flashed, making him look smart.
"It's the knitting club." Max said.
"Oh, right….heh heh…..I'll leave you to it."
The lady left the room, backing away slowly and carefully.
As soon as her footsteps couldn't be heard, they all sighed in relief.
"GIVE ME BACK MY GLASSES!" Kenny yelled, slamming into the wall.
"Hee hee, you can't catch me!" Max squealed, running in a circle.
Max and Kenny made lots of noise running and smashing into things, while Sydney watched them curiously.
"Ray," Kai's fringe overshadowed his eyes.
"Yeah dude?" Ray looked at Kai.
"Get off, right now."
"Are you sure you're alright? You seemed really emotional."
"I was acting, you idiot."
"Yeah, right. I knew that."
Ray stepped away from Kai.
"Alright," Kai wiped his eyes. "Man, I hate lemons, well, can we start this thing?"
"MY GLASS-"
THUD
"Awww, you beepbeep, you killed Kenny! Here KenKen, have a spot of glass." Max gave Kenny back his glasses, though he had already knocked himself out.
"Is Kenny gonna be alright?" Sydney looked worriedly at Kenny.
Kai surveyed the scene.
"This is no good, Max, bring me K's laptop!" Kai yelled.
Max brought the laptop, and then held out his hand.
"Yeah, yeah." Kai handed Max a pack of glo-worms.
"What are you going to do?" Sydney asked.
"I'll tell you, and then you can try it!"
Kai whispered into Sydney's ear something that the others couldn't hear.
"Ok," Sydney said. "Here goes. Kenny, Max destroyed your laptop."
There was silence.
"Kai, I don't think it w-" Ray was about to say when-
"I'LL KILL YOU, MAX!" Kenny jumped up and charged.
Max, who was still happily sucking on a pink and blue glo-worm, did a girly scream before running for his life.
Ray was laughing his head off and Kai was smiling, while Sydney looked on scared.
"Hey Ken, just kidding, it's here." Kai held the laptop high.
Kenny skidded to a halt, grabbed the computer and hugged it, muttering about "my preciousssss".
The group sat down again, with Sydney hugging Max who was still sniffing, Kai sitting with his arms folded and eyes closed, Ray playing with the long bit of hair that he has and Kenny with his dear laptop.
"Ok, now we can begin. Our objective is to escape from Hellmouth High, and how are we gonna do it, Kenny?" Kai opened his eyes.
"Well, first, we'll-"
"Dun-dun dun dun dun-dun deediloo," Ray started singing the Mission Impossible theme.
Kai pulls out a clean, white scarf from his pocket and whips Ray over the head.
"Alright, alright. I'll stop, you happy?" Ray rubs his head.
"Well, anyway, I hacked into the schools' computers and found out that, from 12am, the security systems for the school don't operate for 30 minutes."
"What!" Everyone but Kenny yells.
"But we've already tried that, and we got caught!" Ray yelled.
"But Ray," Kenny's glasses flashed. "That's because we went to the wrong place."
"Oh."
"The only place that the security systems black out is…."
"Where where!" Max jumped on the spot like a dog.
"In the principal's bathroom."
There was no sound. Even the washing machines got quiet. Until Sydney broke the silence.
"Kenny, you perve!" Sydney smiled and giggled.
"No, I'm serious. It's in the principle's bathroom!"
"You just wanna see what's in his bathroom, don't you?"
"No, I…" Kenny blushed. "That's not the point! It's there and only there that the systems are down!"
"But, why do we have to break out?" Sydney asked innocently.
Everyone practically fell off their seats.
"What do you mean why!" Kai yelled.
"The people are so nice here, and-"
"The reason we came here, the reason we got caught, was so that we could escape!"
"Syd," Ray said. "We never get caught. It's just we were bored stiff."
"And mummy's evil! She won't give Maxie sugar no more! But Kai and Computer Nerd and Cat Man are nice and give Maxie sugar, so I do what they think best!"
"Then," Sydney put her finger on her nose to think. "How come you haven't escaped yet?"
Everyone went silent, hanging their heads in shame.
"Well, uh, about that…It's proving harder than we thought." Kai said, shaking his head.
"Is that why you need me? Wow! I can feel the love! Come on guys, give me a hug!"
They all started to back away, afraid.
"I SAID HUG!" Sydney yelled, going into her pyro-psycho personality.
"AHHH!" They all screamed as she grabbed them all and gave them a bone crunching hug.
"That's better," Sydney said, back in nice-loving personality. "See, it wasn't that bad."
They all laughed nervously, which was amazing, considering they couldn't breathe.
I know you've all got your big knives and are about to kill me horribly and painfully.
Sorry about taking sooooooooooooooooooooo long, I've been busy, sick, you name it, I've been everything. So, what'd ya think? I will try to incorporate some of your ideas, but please read and review! Give me some ideas of what you guys would like to happen! And the lemon juice thing? Kai put some in his eyes to make him cry, if you didn't know….
