MISSION: PJ DAY

Data is being uploaded to your panels.

If you are receiving this it is because you have decided to volunteer for the PJ mission. The rules are simple all communiqués having to do with PJ day must be stated in each header. Second all kinds of PJ (practical Jokes) may be played on your fellow cohorts except for any cruel ones (I seriously doubt any of us need to be told that). Now the PJ may occur in the form or narratives, stories, to the list, limericks, mad libs, individual emails to the individual players and anything else your fertile minds can come up with.

PJ day will commence at noon this Friday July 21, 2000 and will end at midnight Saturday July 22, 2000. I expect all of us will have a lot of fun and I can't wait to see how inventive you all get!

Team Members:

Good luck and have fun!!!!!!!! Thank you for participating!

PJ DAY: It begins

Rita walked in carrying a large box of PJ day equipment. She could barely see over the top of the box. She wanted to get the stuff into her room so she could prep. She made her way to the elevator because there was no way she was climbing the stairs with all this.

She pushed the button and climbed into the elevator. When the door opened she bumped into someone as she stepped out. "Oh I am sorry."

"That's all right. Rita what do you have in the box?" asked Jennifer.

"Oh umm water balloons, shaving cream, water guns, feathers some other things."

"What are you doing with all that?" Jennifer was a little afraid to ask.

"Did you forget it was PJ Day?" Rita inquired.

Jennifer let out a yelp. "I gotta go." She said as she ran off trying to find somewhere to hide.

Rita made her way to her room and began preparations but first she sat at her computer to begin the personal pranks.

***********

Curlly surveyed her goodies. Everything seemed to be in order. She had to go in for about 10 hours for some prep work on her next mission. Then she was free to prank the night away. Plus, she always worked better in paybacks than the initiation, but what the hey.

She had needed yesterday a voice modifier for some work on the mission and "forgot" to return it to Walter before he left. So pulling that out she hit a few button and started to talk into it. You didn't hear her voice but Michael's. Curlly giggled, "this has so much potential!"

"What has so much potential?" came a voice she knew from behind her.

Whipping it under a cushion, Curlly replied, "why Sinjn! What are you doing back early?"

"Was Michael here? I thought I heard his voice."

Curlly's nose scrunched up. "No. Only this." Curlly showed him what she had hidden. "You might wanna go home Sinjn. Today is PJ day and you could very likely get hit in the cross fire."

Sinjn just laughed. She sounded so serious. "So just what are you going to do with that?"

"Would you like to watch?" Curlly went over to the phone and dialed Rita's extension.

"Yah?" came Rita's voice.

"Ma Cherie, have the games begun?" inquired Curlly using Michael's voice.

"I'm just about ready. Wanna join in on the fun?"

"That's quite okay, I have a break from work and I wondered if you'd join me at Enrique's for lunch. Fortify you for the upcoming day."

"Of course, what time?"

"10 minutes satisfactory?"

"Well then, I better hurry! See ya there!"

A small endearment and they disconnected. Curlly placed a similar call to sherry only for an hour later. Michael already had a lunch date with Nikita for an hour and fifteen minutes from the time Rita would arrive. And she had already gotten to both Rita and Sherry's cell phones and Michael's so that if any of them tried to call the other, the call would be redirected to Curlly's phone.

So about the time Rita and Sherry got into it about just which Michael would eat with, in would walk the man in black with Nikita.

Curlly looked out her window to see Rita rushing out of CLHQ's and off to her date.

************

You guys will never guess what I discovered!! As you may know, there is a "secret" passage in CLHQ that connects my room to Curlly's. Well, the other night her cat managed to make her way to my room and, seeing as how i was in my nightgown, I decided to take the passage to return her.

I stepped into the room to see Curlly preparing for bed herself, and you won't believe what I saw her take off!! The girl wears...and I kid you not....a WIG!! Her beautiful curly hair that she is so proud of is faux!!

Now, I know that this is difficult to believe, but I just happened to have my camera with me, and i have PROOF!! Unfortunately my e-mail will not allow me to send an attachment of this size, so I put it up on a website.... go check it out!!

North looked around surreptitiously as she exited the tack room. She knew Avillion usually took a ride just after lunch... Well today she would find a nice surprise when she slipped on her riding boots. Earlier in the morning she had made up some Jell-O and taken it down to the stables and had poured some of it in each boot. Checking it just now, she was pleased to see that it had jelled up very nicely. 'Avi is going to scream blue murder when she puts her toes into that' thought North.

Making her way back up to CLHQ she glanced around to make sure that no one else was about. She still had a few final touches to put on the other plans she had and didn't need to be distracted in any way. She was looking forward the other 'pranks' she had planned today... She was glad to see that one of their newest members at CLHQ, Joann had decided to join in on the days' activities. North was hoping that no matter what happened today that it wouldn't give Joann the wrong impression. 'oh well,' she chuckled, 'it will just make her one of us all that much sooner.'

Sneaking in the basement door she quietly made her way down a flight of stairs. Hearing a commotion in the hallway she quickly slipped into one of the as of yet empty rooms....

Sneaking a peak out she saw that it was Dragonlady walking down the hall on her way to the elevator. 'Ahhh good time DL, I was hoping you wouldn't be in your room' North thought to herself...

************

Curlly was busy laughing at her prank on Rita and Sherry. While she was rummaging through her stuff to see what she would do next there was a knock at the door.

"Are you expecting anyone?" Sinjn inquired as he walked to open the door since Curlly was busy.

"Nah but be careful you never know what they could be plotting behind that door."

Sinjn ever cautious called out, "Who is it?"

"Its George please open the door."

Sinjn and Curlly made faces at watch other both perplexed at the arrival of the head of Oversight. Sinjn opened the door in walked George. "Good Afternoon. Curlly are you ready for our lunch date?"

Curlly's eyes opened wide. "Date?" She squeaked out.

"Yes I received your invitation on my panel this morning. I juggled my schedule around to be here to take you."

Curlly knowing she had no choice but she knew someone was responsible for this. "Why certainly."

Poor Sinjn looked flabbergasted and shell shocked all the same time. As George held out his arm in a courtly gesture and escorted Curlly out while saying, "Don't wait up Sinjn."

********

Curlly was glad she was dressed up enough for her "date". Curlly repressed a giggle. Sinjn's face had been kinda funny to watch, AND she was rather relieved that it was only George and not say, Perry or Petrosian.

"George, would you mind if we took a side trip to the stable?"

"Why do you want to go look at the stables my dear?"

"You'll see. And I think you'll appreciate it too!"

Very agreeable, they made their way to the stables. Inside each horse was dyed a different color. They were still faintly colored but Curlly told George that the color reacted to sunlight and would intensify as the day wore on. It would last for weeks. Avillion's horse was a bright pink color. And the door of the stall was a sign that said, "look, a painted pony!"

North was sitting in her office busily hacking away at her computer when Operations entered.

"Are you ready to go?" he inquired.

"Go? Go where?" North asked, puzzled by his question. She hadn't planned on leaving her office for long that day, having decided it would be safer to be where she could keep an eye on everything.

"To lunch. You sent me an invitation this morning."

"Of course," North said, thinking to herself that this plan was easily thwarted. "Why don't we eat here? It's nice and private, and I can have something..."

"Sounds lovely," Operations smiled at her.

North reached for her phone to order their lunch, but before she picked it up a flashing window on her computer screen caught her attention.

A moment later North was amazed to see footage of she and Perry Bauer out on a date. She was blushing as he whispered sweet nothings in her ear. For a moment she was caught up in her memories of that night, but the sound of Operation's voice asking her if she was going to get lunch brought her out of her reverie. OPERATIONS!!

North knew that Ops was a very jealous man, and she also knew that if he saw the video there would be hell to pay.

"What's the matter darling?" he asked her. "You're looking quite pale all of a sudden."

"Oh, it's nothing. I just need a little fresh air. Perhaps we should go out after all?"

"Whatever you want. Let's go," Operations said as he escorted her out the door.

A few minutes later Avillion surreptitiously made her way into North's office, knowing that her plan had worked. Now, to get started...
