"Thanks!" *Hugs The ASW, then turns to watch the movie* "Wow, this movie sucks. I haven't seen a movie this bad since I had to do that film project way back in the 6th grade. And I did a better job. It's a good thing I brought my DVD stash!" *Reaches into pocket and pulls out a box of DVDs* "Where is it!?" *Digs through box* "Here it is! Monty Python and the Holy Grail!"

*meanwhile*
Furball sighed, wondering if homesickness made clouds outside the airplane windows look like giant sprite and kitty logos with a reminder from MA on them.
"Mr. Osama?" Furball asked tiredly, sitting down on an armchair and talking with her new best friend and his bodyguards.
"Yes?" grumbled Mr. Osama.
"You're the smartest person I know besides Coconut, TEO, MA, Oz, Skiv, Ahrar, Bob, Elky, Jette, 'Shana, CLPP, Dox, the ASW, and that girl with the lunch box. But not in that order." She sighed, looking annoyed. "So, can clouds resemble sprite logos?"
"Um...sure." Mr. Osama said, shrugging. Furball beamed.
"Thankies!" She cried happily, giving him a hug and bouncing off to raid the sprite stash at the back of the plane. She slipped however in the growing puddle of water and fell flat on her back.
"Coconut?" She asked darkly.
"Yes?" Said the kitty. Furball blinked slowly.
"Give me a hand up, and then clean up the dratted water." She said. (oo! TP reference from Thief of Time!!)

MA decided to keep the signal on so that Furball would eventually get the hint. (" Not likekly, but she might." MA muttered to hersellf.") Just then, the plane rose into the air and headed for Britain. MA tried to keep herself from shrieking in fright by watching the movie.
" Damn, this sucks." She muttered. Suddenly, she had an idea.
Creeping ever so stealthily up to the movie projector, she slipped a DVD of " Alien" into it and hooked it up. Instantly, the crappy movie was replaced by the movie "Alien".
" Problem sovled." MA went back to her seat and sat down, looking out the window at the ocean below them. She REALLY, REALLY hoped the plane wouldn't crash. " Now, back to my FST." She muttered, putting on her headphones again.

Furball was tired of refering to herself in third person. It was rather dreary, and she still hadn't figured out how to think in italics. Unfortunately she couldn't find the switch that would change her back to first person, so she decided to go look in the cockpit.
"Haldo!" She cried, opening the door with a thwack. The pilot died of a heartattack and keeled over. For a moment Furball stood there wondering what to do. She then turned around, walked back to the rows of people and said in a loud voice:
"Does anyone here know how to fly a plane?"

Oz rubbed the back of his head. It really hurt! Not just the I-have-an-extraordinarily-ingenuous-idea type of hurt either. Just plain old pain.
"Hey, that rhymes!" He said, instantly cheering up.
"Ok, I've got another brilliant idea!"
Everyone around him either pretended not to hear him or was wondering how long it would take them to break through the triple plated windows on the plane and go falling to their merciful death.
He reached over to TEO's seat, yoinked her towel away from her, and then tapped on MA's shoulder until she took off her headphones and gave him her trademark death glare.
"Listen, MA, you're really smart. And sane too! Do you think that you could make an Improbability Drive out of this? Your sanity might be a bit of a handicap, but I'm sure you can do it!"
(Ah, god bless the HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy)

TEO flips out when Oz touches her towel and leaps onto him, savaging his face.
"DON'T TOUCH THE TOWEL! It's soaked in vitamins and has got bits of wire and a bendy pen woven in!" TEO retrieves it and leaps out of her seat and runs off, intending to lock herself in the bathroom. Unfortunately, there is a line in front of it. She shrugs and takes the opportunity to yell at Oz.
"And you'll never find tea that's hot enough on an airplane!"
The man who is standing in front of her winces as his hearing aid pops from the volume.
--
Meeeeanwhile...
Coconut tentatively raises a paw. He is tired of trying to extinguish the bathrooms, anyway. And neither he nor TEO has read Thief of Time yet.
"I know how to use a forklift, Furball. Does that count?"

Furball struck a heroic pose amid stunned and panicking people.
"Good enough!"

Coconut nods and climbs into the cockpit.
"Here, I think this lever--"
The plane swoops and swerves.
"No, this one, probably."
The passengers scream.

Furball opened her Handbook amid the terrified screams, and then showed Coconut a passage.
"The Handbook doesn't say anything about how to fly a plane, but it has instructions on how to hijack one, which is close enough."

MA sighed and continue working on her FST, oblivious to the screeching going on between Oz and TEO. Suddenly, her eyes widened, and she took off her headphones.
" Crap, my "Furball is getting herself into some kind of trouble" senses are tingling." Quickly, MA turned off the Furball signal and scrawled something new on it.
THIS IS NOT AN ILLUSION, FURBALL. FOR GODDSAKES JUST CALL MA NOW!!
MA then turned the Furball Signal back on and sighed, turning to Oz.
" When the stewardess comes by, can you ask her to bring me a turkey sandwich with no mayo, onions, or tomatoes and extra american cheese, pickles, and ketchup?"

Oz listened to this request and tried to avoid vomitting. "I'm not sure my stomach can handle that request. I mean, American cheese, pickles and ketchup!? On a turkey sandwhich!?"
He gave MA a scrutinizing stare.
"Are you sure you're sane?"
He then looked at the Furball Signal which was now flashing out of the plane.
"Wouldn't it be easier just to take over this plane and then fly it to Saudi Arabia and pick up Furball over there and then fly back? Listen, I've been reading this one Martial Arts book, I can just walk up to the pilot and snap his neck. Easy! I've been practicing on this rolled up blanket... And I think I've got the hang of it."
(Good ol' Blouse from Monstrous Regiment. Which I finished reading in the bookstore today, Furball!)

" NONONONONONO!!" MA thwacked Oz on the head. " We are NOT hijacking the plane, idiot! None of us know how to fly! And get me my sandwich, for heaven's sake!"
A very grumpy and anxious MA flicked the Furball Signal onto full intesnity, chewing her bottom lip.

TEO scowls and comes back to her seat and sits on her towel. She buckles herself in tightly so the towel can't be stolen again.
"Oz, the Empire has no place for hijackers of planes. Unless we really, really want to have a place. And if we do end up with a place, it would have to be in Woddlesworth, because with the library of Congress taking up so much space, it couldn't go anywhere near the sheep racing tracks."
She nods wisely and leans over to Niccahmabob, eying her lunchbox. Niccahmabob looks asleep. TEO looks shifty and takes the lunchbox out of her hands.
"It can't help to take a peak."
--
Meeeeeanwhile, Coconut is reading the chapter on hijacking planes, sipping a cup of tea, while the plane plummets. Unfortunately, cats are not natural readers, and it was slow going.
He looks out of the window.
"Furball, isn't that a signal or something?"
