43 Unicorn Drive, Thursday

"Ugh." The stomach-ache from eating who-knew-what from the melting freezer at Luke's had morphed into something like the flu, and there was just no way Kenzi was getting to class today. Damnit. And today was supposed to be the final, too. How was she going to give Josh Lyman a coronary if she wasn't there?

Nothing for it, though.

Hey Class

"Arrr, me mateys," Sparkle called out to any classmates who might have followed along with his crazy plan to this point. "We be here, at the Captain's quarters! Now, ready your mutinying supplies!"

In this case, 'mutinying supplies' meant, like, Pepto Bismol, ginger ale, and soda crackers. Or whatever else they decided to bring along for Kenzi.

Of course, the whole pirate shtick maybe lost a little in execution with the way Sparkle was just politely knocking on the door. Look, their Captain was feeling sick. He didn't really want to just barge in on her like a total ass.

Karina had mostly come along to smack Sparkle if he did anything too stupid. Honest. Ignore her newspaper hat (that was just so she'd fit in) and that she had a bag of what looked suspiciously like an assortment of cold and flu medication from the general store.

What? It wasn't like she cared or anything, shut up.

While she appreciated that Sparkle wasn't actually bursting down Kenzi's door, she had to say, "That's the most pathetic barging in I've ever seen. You're a terrible Pirate King."

Because she was a smart-ass.

"Maybe I'm trying to catch her unawares," Sparkle offered. "Strike when she least expects it, that sort of thing."

Yes. That reasoning would totally fly.

"She's sick," Karina said, amused. "You could probably parade elephants past her and she'd just think it was a dream."

Well, that depended on how sick Kenzi was, but Karina was still of the opinion that it was more likely than Sparkle's reasoning.
