5 (College Prank)

[papasmurfmcdnld]

[Is it even a good idea to pull a prank on the professor? Probably not, but Sean is going to try.

Donned head to toe in black, with a ski mask and a voice changer. Also armed with a metallic painted water gun. He barges into the study with a garbage bag, some rope, and a... helmet?]

[ihearyouthink]

[the professor is sitting at his desk, working on some notes when the masked figure comes in] What in the....Sean? What are you up to...?

[papasmurfmcdnld]

[He puts on the helmet, which isn't ordinary. It prevents Sean's mind from being read temporarily.]

You're coming with us, sir.

[He attempts to tie him up and put a garbage bag over him. Oh god what is he doing?]

[ihearyouthink]

[muffled in the garbage bag, certain that this is a prank] Us? Who's with you exactly? Com'n Sean, I've got papers to grade...

[not resisting attempts at being tied up] Alex put you up to this didn't he? Lost a bet or something, hm?

[papasmurfmcdnld]

That can wait. [Signals the others to help carry the professor to the car.]

[Nope. This is all Sean's idea. Part of his bucket list.]

[ihearyouthink]

[oh now there's more people??] Hey now, easy there...

[papasmurfmcdnld]

[Oh god, Sean is really trying so hard to not laugh as he and the other guys carry him to the car. One guy asks.]

So what's the plan?

Can't tell you. He can still hear us.

[He won't say anything out loud, but it might involve a party at the end.]

[ihearyouthink]

You're right I can still hear you. [they hadn't been any too bright to not gag him and he was taking full advantage of the situation] You think your little hat will keep me out forever, Sean?

[papasmurfmcdnld]

[Nah, they wouldn't do that. Despite prank kidnapping him.]

Maybe. [It's only temporary. They have to do this quickly.]

Dude, who's driving?

I am, duh! We have to hurry up. I'm gonna floor it!

[ihearyouthink]

[he is probably lying about his hat really, just a psych out back at him]

Oof! [as he's tossed into the truck and the top shut]

[sigh, what has his teaching career come to if his students were taking to kidnapping him in the middle of the night] You are all dangerously close to a pop quiz in the morning.

[papasmurfmcdnld]

[The students admire you, Professor. They're showing such admiration by kidnapping you.]

Did you hear something?

Nope. [Totally ignoring the pop quiz thing. Sean whispers] Don't you remember what the plan was? We're taking him to a surprise party.

[ihearyouthink]

[he couldn't hear much in the trunk so the surprise party bit passed him by]

[since he's got some time while they drive, he starts testing his bonds and trying to get the bag off his head]

[papasmurfmcdnld]

[Sean and the other guys are laughing along the way.]

Oh my god, that was awesome! I can't believe you put him in the trunk, man.

[Then, the car stops. They're here.]

You know what to do, guys. Get ready.

[Sean gets out of the car and opens the trunk.]

[ihearyouthink]

[because Charles is the man....he's sitting there smiling, the bag gone and his hands re-tied (BY HIMSELF) in front of him] So we're there, are we? Wherever there is.

[papasmurfmcdnld]

[Sean tries to put the bag over his head again. One last time. Promise.]

You'll see. [Behind the mask, Sean is still trying to not smile or laugh.]

[Nearby is what looks like an abandoned building with the lights out. Inside there are people hiding, waiting to surprise the "hostage".]
