fandomhigh | Detention, Saturday Morning, April 7

When the students filed into the Danger Shop this morning, they'd notice Fraser standing at attention near the front of the room. The names of those with detention were neatly displayed in plain view.

~~Alec~~
~~Rikku~~
~~Seely Booth~~
~~Hamlet Dane~~
~~Jim Ellison~~
~~Zero Hopeless-Savage~~
Ranma Sao

"Good morning everyone," Fraser said, smiling pleasantly. "I trust you all had a fine Friday, slept well and are prepared for your detention this morning. Some of you may know me, some of you may not. I'm Constable Benton Fraser, head of school security here. If this is our first meeting, I wish it could be under better circumstances."

He paused to take his hat off and drop it on a desk. "For today's detention, we're going to have a little adventure. This adventure will be non violent and, should you try anything violent, you will have to deal with me. I'll be guiding your progress and controlling the adventure. Your goal is to retrieve the treasure from the castle and unleash it's many wonders. Good luck."

Fraser stepped back and the Danger Shop suddenly became a large, open meadow.

[Basically, this is Choose Your Own Adventure. I'll start out with a setting and some minor directions and the students can go from there. Familiar characters might pop up along the way. But, please, no violence. I'll be around all day most likely.]

"You wish to entertain me?" the king asked. "Do so or I will banish you!"

"I would like nothing better," declared Rikku.

She scooped up a few items the jester had dropped and launched into her rendition of Cuban Pete. With rumbaing and a failed attempt at juggling, which she hoped failed in an entertaining way. Especially when she bonked one off her head and flailed wildly.

She tried to inch closer to the door without being obvious about it. Hmmm.

The king clapped his hands together in glee. "Bonk yourself on the head again!"

The king was completely oblivious to the inching closer to the door.

"But of course, your majesty." Rikku grinned and grabbed more fruit and other easily-tossable items to make another failed bid at juggling, still singing "Cuban Pete."

She threw up seven or eight of the items all at once. If she aimed it right, one was going to thump onto her head, most were going to fly randomly about the room ... and one was headed for the PRINCESS HERE door.

If.

The king laughed in delight and, because this game was unfair, kicked off the alarm with his foot without noticing.

The princess's door was now unguarded.

Yes. Rikku scoope up a couple fruit and threw them straight up in the air for a finale, letting both bonk her on the forehead and falling backwards to play dead.

After a few seconds she stood up and took a long bow. "Thank you, your majesty, for your laughter. I think I need a few moments recovery while I find my wits again. If I ever shall."

The king shoo'ed her away and brought the crowd closer, telling them of the jester that had just regaled him.

No one was paying attention to Rikku now.

Rikku slipped through the crowd unnoticed, wishing she had picked softer fruit. Ow.

She lingered in front of the doorway for a long moment, trying to look around without looking like she was looking around, and then took a quick step through.

When Rikku stepped through the door, she was greeted by a very bright, very neon pink sign.

Thank you Rikku! But our princess is in another castle!

And that's when the Danger Shop returned to normal around Rikku.

Rikku pumped a fist and did her victory dance. "I did it! I beat the thing!"

"Heyyyy! Where's the loot?!"

"The loot is," Fraser said, stepping up, "that you did not give up and...that you stayed clothed. Very good."

"I was clothed on Sunday," Rikku noted with a grin. "And I never give up where treasure is concerned. I mean, when I have to save someone from evil."

And she bounced a bit for good measure.

"You did well," Fraser said, praising her. "And you were the first to make it through. I can offer you a quiet rest of detention while you eat and relax as loot?"

"I'll take it," Rikku grinned. "Plus getting to brag about being first? Totally counts as loot."

He smiled and nodded towards the eating area. "Congratulations on finishing first."
