Kicking Ass, Teamwork Style {Wednesday, Period 2, Week 7)
Today's small, dimly-lit entry cavern, branching off into a small maze of tunnels from which the occasional growl or scratching noise or sound that might have been a shriek, was brought to you by the Danger Shop programming. When the students arrived they'd find Kennedy leaning carelessly against the wall with her arms crossed, one booted foot atop the prone figure of a bipedal reptilian creature. In case you were wondering whether sewer alligators really existed.
"So here's the deal," she said when class started. "I could talk at you all I wanted about what to do in theory, but lectures are overrated and it's what you end up doing when something big comes down for real that's gonna count. So this is the sitch: you find your way out of here, or keep everyone in one piece until the end of class, but the key is you stick together. No letting your classmates get lost or fall into a hole or get dragged off by the lizard-man things wandering around in here. Doesn't matter if you can't stand each other. Watch each other's backs, get everyone out. How you do that's gonna be up to you."
Kennedy half smiled, well aware that she was taking a cue from Buffy with the next thing she had to say. "You've got instincts. Trust them. That's maybe more important than anything I could try to drill into you." She snapped her fingers and pointed toward the mouth of the tunnel. "Go do that thing now."
