Chapter 5: Jokes
"Alright, I decided we get him on the 24th, since I am in no condition to do it today." Mikel said as he was referring to his ankle. After running on it for an hour, it was throbbing bad-not how he wanted it to be. "Sorry man." Jake said when he saw Mikel's exasperated or mad look on his face-it was hard to tell really…
"Morning all. So, we doing it today?" Nerk said as he came into the room. He decided for some reason to be on Austrailian time…in other words-he slept late. "Do you really want to know? The bait, or me in this case, is not ready to go-my ankle's being a bitch. If you don't understand that, I'll just point it to you." Mikel said as he showed his ankle. "Tomorrow, hurting or not, we are doing it. So I figure…why not? Take the day off. If you need me, I'll be in my zone, k?" Mikel said as he walked out of the room, showing a slight limp.
"Hmm..since we have the day off, why don't we catch up on our war? What do you say?" Nerk said to Jake as if it was a challenge. "You're on. I still remember last year." Jake replied, motioning to his pants. "Payback-that's how I saw it." Nerk said as he left. Today, it was to be a day to remember…
Jake started off with the usual basics-water buckets, whoopee cushions, itching powder, etc, with getting hilarious results from it.
"Ahh!!! Get it out, get it out, get it out!" Nerk yelled in agony as Jake was on the floor laughing. He had just put a gecko down his shirt, with Nerk in complete discomfort. "Oh this is too much. I'm taking a shower." Jake replied still giggling to himself. "Oh, he's going to get a surprise when he gets out…" Nerk said to himself.
15 minutes later…
"Nerk!!!" Jake yelled as he got out of the shower, completely invisible, save for the head. He held a bar of invisi-soap in his hand as Nerk went off laughing. "That is nice." Nerk yelled as he left the room. "Alright, it's on." Jake whispered to himself.
Later…
"This is perfect. He'll never suspect it." Jake said as he held the rope for his biggest prank. It was one of those complicated contraptions that ended up with a net and something stinky…you don't want to know what it was.
"Suspect what?" Nerk said behind him. "Ok, as soon as Nerk comes in, he's in for the stink of his life…huh?" Jake started to go on before realizing Nerk was behind him. "If you're there, who's coming in?" he asked.
(sound of contraption going off, yelling)
"Uh-oh." Jake and Nerk said as they saw the result-Mikel caught in the prank. "Ok, I'm not going to hold it against anybody. Just get me down so I can kill you both-I don't care who did it. You two have been doing it long enough. Get me down. Now." Mikel angrily snarled as he was trapped in their doing.
"I don't know. I kinda like you like that. What do you think, Nerk?" Jake said thoughtfully as Mikel knew where this was going. "Come on Jake. Let's go." Nerk said as they both laughed their heads off. As Mikel hung there, he got a claw and started going for the net, "If you have to do something, you have to do it yourself. And to think, I was going out tonight." He groaned as he clawed away…
Ok, that was fun. I figured I add the prank thing to the story. I don't care what everyone says-I just did it for a fan…don't know of the next chapter-I'm surprised I got this one done.
