At least I thought it was funny, other people might not get it though, well, I'll try my best to explain it! *set, determined face*
Okay! Here goes!
So, in my dream me and some of my friends are these really good secret agents, and we're on this really important mission, only things keep going wrong and we're really disorganized and everything seems to be going as wrong as it can go...
Okay, so there's the basic summary, and the storyteller in me wants to make it into a big short story! Yay! Storytime! You know you've been waiting for it! whee Okay, and as you know, almost no dreams ever finish, they're incomplete so the ending that I'm making is going to be made up from my own imagination, basically what I said in the summary is about where I woke up, so there you go, your own background to my in the spur of the moment short story! xd

"Come on Kera* get up already you lazy bum!" A voice yelled agrily, while threateningly picking up a pillow.
"No! There's still light out that means its time to sleep!" Kera argued back bleerily.
"If you don't get up now I'm going to hit you with this pillow so hard..." The voice continued threatening.
"No you're not, I know you better than that. You know that if you hit me I'm just going to get you back in a worse way..." Kera replied, squishing her face closer to the pillow's all encompassing softness.
"That's not fair! You know I'm only scared of you because you're seriously insane sometimes!" The voice argued, backing away slightly with the pillow.
"Then why are you trying to wake me up now? Don't you know how insane I can be without sleep? It's like when you people give me candy...." Kera mumbled into the pillow.
"Well that's just becasue it's really important and nobody else would do it...they just pushed me in here and threatened not to give me any food unless I woke you up..." The voice quailed mournfully.
"Oh...well what is it then, I think I'll decide whether it's important enough for me to get up..." Kera smiled into the pillow that was just like Kelly.
"Well...umm," she paused nervously, what if Kera didn't deem it important, she wasn't going to get any food...! "You see...they told me to come wake you up because well, someone wants us to do a job...."
"So...?" Kera mumbled disappointed, "Can't that wait till later? I was up half the night working so you guys could relax today and now you're waking me up...? Rude...."
Kelly bit her lip nervously, "Come on please! Please! They said it was really important that you go and look at it!"
"Then make them come in here and talk me into it..." Kera grumbled, turning over and pulling the blankets with her.
Kelly dithered back and forth in the small hotel bedroom, once Kera got like this it was all decided and there was nothing else that Kelly could do to convince her...this was going to be hard and problematic. Finally Kelly sighed and quietly left the room, she wasn't going to get any food, but this way she wouldn't have to try and convince Kera of things.
A few minutes later Sandra came crashing through the room an evil and malicious grin on her face. "This is going to be fun! Now get up you stupid lazy freak!" Sandra shouted angrily, her voice much more threatening than Kelly's had been.
But, Kera only rolled over momentarily, peeked out at Sandra for a few moments and then rolled over again, "Nope, enjoying my sleep here. I've been going on less sleep than you for weeks so just go away and bother someone else..."
"Kera you get up right now or I'm going to hit you!" Sandra said, grabbing the pillow dropped by Kelly, and her voice was much more sure of her plight than the last person holding this pillow.
"Fine, go ahead, but that's not going to encourage me to get up...I'll just hit you back later..." Kera replied yawning; with all these people coming in and bothering her, she just might have to get up on her own. Not that she really would have minded, it wasn't really that big of a deal to her to get up herself. It wasn't hard at all, it was just more fun to make people try to get her up.
Sandra twitched angrily, and threw the pillow at the back of Kera's form on the bed as hard as she could. Kera merely shifted under the covers and mumbled, "It's a pillow stupid, was that really supposed to hurt?"
Sandra screamed in exasperation, knowing clearly from experience that this was going to be next to impossible. She knew to just give up now and make someone else do it; she left and headed towards the other room where everyone else was grouped waiting to see if she'd been successful.
"Well?" Kiri asked hopefully, she knew it would probably be her turn to try next if Sandra had been unsuccessful.
"Nope, no luck, she's still being a pain." Sandra sighed.
"Isn't she always...?" Cait asked amused, it was always fun to watch the morning proceedings when they involved Kera.
"Why don't you try Jess?" Sandra suggested; Sandra knew Kera was more likely to listen if Jess asked, she just had to convince her first.
Jess blinked up at Sandra evilly, "Why would I do that...it'd be mean...."
"You'd do it to the rest of us in a heartbeat!" Sandra argued.
Jess grinned cruelly, "Yep...I would..." and left it at that.
Kiri took a deep breath and let it out slowly, "Guess its my turn huh...?"
All the faces in the room turned to her all the ten eyes bright with expectation. "Go for it!" Kelly cheered, sneaking a bagel off the table and carefully taking a discrete bite from it.
Kiri took another deep breath and entered the room of doom. "Kera...?" She asked quietly upon entering the room.
"Yes?" Kera replied politely, her voice muffled by the pillow she was holding, the same pillow that had been thrown at her.
"Can't you get up and come look at the job we've just been offered?" Kiri pleaded.
"I don't know, who's offering?"
"Umm...Luke...?" Kiri answered uncertainly.
"Luke who...? I'm too tired to know specific people based only on first names..." Kera grumbled.
"Uh, Luke the, uh...big boss?" Kiri offered in a small voice.
Kera just managed to hold herself back from jumping up from the bed and rushing to get herself dressed. If they were being offered a job by the boss it had to be big. He'd stopped making them do jobs after a while, saying they needed a break to do smaller jobs for a while, and it had been less than a month since he'd said that so something was up. But, if Kera ever wanted to entertain herself by torturing her friends again she'd have to play it cool. "Fine...I'll be out in a few minutes...."
Kiri brightened immediately, "Really? Yes!" She left the room a hige grin plastered to her face. "I win!" She announced upon re-entering the room with everyone else.
"You got her to get up?" Kelly asked disappointed.
"Yep! So you owe me something!" Kiri said, laughing at the look on Kelly's face.
Kera emerged from the room shortly after, dressed and looking completely presentable even though it had only been two minutes. "So what's the job?" She asked calmly, taking a seat in one of the chairs.
"He wants us to go after the idols*" Cait answered expectantly. *Note, the idols might not have been the name, I can't remember...so I'm making it up! ^-^
"Really...?" Kera asked raising an eyebrow. She hadn't heard much about the idols in the past few days. From what she'd heard the idols were a group of people who were violently enforcing their beliefs on other people. They believed that the world was going downhill and they were the only ones who could fix it. Most of the time groups like this were tiny and dismantled easily, but this group had huge financial support from somewhere. The leaders were unknown and hidden somewhere, but the groups followers were still doing plenty of harm.
"Yes really, we've been instructed to try and find the leaders and stop them, by whatever means necessary..." Jess explained calmly, taking a bite from her peanut butter sandwich.
Kera's eyes lighted up, "Whatever means necessary? Really? He's letting us be mean and evil and cruel!"
"Everyone except you anyway...." Ellie answered smiling and trying to hold back her laughter as Kera's face crumpled and she looked over with a tearstruck expression.
"Why not me? Everyone knows I'm the only one who never gets to murder! Just once and it would be so much fun!" Kera whined.
"Oh come off it! You know you could never find it in you to really kill someone," Ellie argued, still smiling.
"You wanna make a bet...?" Kera asked darkly, her expression murderous.
"No...not really," Kelly said nervously.
Kera let out a big sigh and asked, "Fine, whatever, where are we off to this time?"
"The mountains," Cait answered eagerly, "it's so pretty up there!"
"We're not going for sightseeing you know..." Kera said frowning, disapprovingly. "Which mountains? There's lots out there."
"He wouldn't tell us until he was sure we'd accept the job, you know how that goes." Ellie said rolling her eyes.
"Fine, tell him we accept, and get back to me later..." Kera replied standing from the table and wandering into the kitchen.
The group still in the room grinned widely, this was going to be a fun mission! Especially since they were in on something that Kera wasn't, while this was still a mostly serious mission and it should be taken seriously, Luke had told them to start screwing things up. Kera was always the perfectionist, and she had gotten her ego up a little too high lately, and Luke wanted to knock her down a few pegs if he could.
The only thing that they didn't know was that this messing up of the mission was going to backfire and they were going to get screwed, and their only way to complete the mission successfully lost. They were digging themselves into a hole and making it impossible for Kera to fix....
