Timeline: After Judy's The General's Clothes.

It had been a long night, Ellie's tiger cub had decided to mew and fuss with the tiger cubs next door in Jen and Kymira's room most the night, so needless to say, Kendra didn't get much sleep. Yet Ellie slept like a log. When peaceful slumber did come, a loud siren blaring across the campus speakers rudely awakened her.

"What the hell?" Kendra bellowed as she rolled out of bed in surprise, smacking the carpet with her face.

"What's going on?" Ellie asked as she stumbled out of her room in cow print pajamas as she slammed Kendra's bedroom door against the wall. "Kendra? Where are you?"

"I'm in the freakin floor, where else would I be?" The disgruntled Ho snapped.

"Let's get dressed and see what's going on." Ellie said with excitement, as she ran into her room and slipped on her sweats, then joined Kendra at the door. "You're not going to wear that are you?" She asked, referring to the other Ho's oversized nightshirt.

"Hey, I'm not getting dressed, so deal with it. Besides I plan to see what form of sadistic bastard would blare such racket at...what time is it El?"

"Seven o'clock," Ellie stated as she glanced at her wristwatch.

"What sadistic bastard would wake us up at seven in the morning, and then I'm going back to bed." Kendra huffed before going out into the hall, where she found Ho's stumbling blindly from all directions.

"What's all the racket?" Kymira mumbled as she and Jen came out of their room. "Can't a girl get any sleep around here?"

"Obviously not." JenJen snorted as the four Ho's joined the zombie like crowd, heading out towards the campus green.

~~~~~~~~~~~

As the Ho's slowly stumbled from they're perspective buildings, all eyes tried to focus on the black clad figure running in place at the far end of the green.

"What's going on?" Judy griped as she joined the crowd, "is that who I think it is?"

"Yep, the General, wanted me to wake everybody!" Deb smiled brightly, obviously a morning person. "Said we had important things to do."

"Yeah right!" Caeryn snorted as she joined the gathering crowd and all murmurs quickly died down as the General raised his hands and began to speak.

"Grrls, we need to get into shape around here, everybody has been too lax and its time for us to have sound bodies as well as sound minds..." The General loudly explained for all to hear.

"Don't say it Ky, don't!" Jen threatened in a hushed tone.

"But Jen, it's too easy, please let me?" Kymira pleaded with a wicked grin, as Jen persisted to distract her.

"Alright, move it or loose it," Darry loudly ordered as she shoved unwitting Ho's out of her way to go to the front of the mass. "Just what the Frill is going on?" She demanded, as she stood before the crowd in her hastily put on scrubs, backwards no less.

"Darry, glad to see you joined us," the General smiled, then took a deep breath. "You're just in time for our new morning exercise routine."

"Sorry, can't do, Doctor's note," she stated, then swiftly turned and made her way back to the clinic. Leaving the General to look at her in total bewilderment, taking a few seconds to gain his thoughts once more.

"First we need to warm up, then we'll jog twice around campus," he instructed as he stretched and even at this early hour a few Ho's swayed at the sight of flexing muscles under his black sweat pants and tank top.

"He has got to be out of his mind!" Brenda exclaimed as she watched some of the newer Ho's follow his lead. "This is like living a bad Richard Simmons nightmare! Next thing you know, he'll have us sweatin to the oldies." She groaned as the surrounding Ho's rolled their eyes and Deb just stifled a giggle, already aware of the General's new training routine.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

As the General lead the mass of Ho's in a quick jog around campus, Jen, Kymira, Kendra and Ellie slowly faded to the back of the group, jogging in place before hurriedly sneaking off to the steps of the Admin building and quickly collapsing.

"He's trying to kill us!" Kymira groaned as she watched the other Ho's disappear into the distance.

"What did we do to deserve this? I mean I haven't caused any problems lately?" Ellie added as she looked to Jen.

"Me either, I've been too busy running errands for Dorotea. What about you Ky?"

"No, nothing here, good as gold," Kymira giggled before all three Ho's glanced down at Kendra, who was stifling a sneeze.

"What?" Kendra said with irritation after sneezing loudly.

" Alright, fess up, what have you done to make the General torment us like this?" Ellie demanded.

"Nothing!"

"Oh, come on, you can do better than that!" Kymira sighed as Kendra sneezed once more.

"I have done nothing, the General just thinks he's gained weight for some reason, you know this Ky, you're the one who got nutella banished." Kendra shot back, as Ky just snorted and Kendra sneezed. "Damn cats!" The Ho groaned as she glanced around for any furry beasts, before suddenly being jumped by a blur of black, white and fuschia.

"She likes you!" Ellie grinned as Sugar made herself comfortable in Kendra's lap, eliciting a loud groan of protest.

"Alright I've had enough!" Kendra shouted through a stuffy nose, "the cat's Kenobi's and that's where she's going to have to stay!" She said with annoyance as she scooped the purring cat into her arms, holding it aloft and stormed off to the General's room.

"Guess that leaves us to gather Emmy and the others, we need a plan, and fast, or the General is going to make our lives a living Hell." Ellie exclaimed as they stood up to go into the Admin building. "Hey, atleast they were smart enough to watch from the window." She added as they could see Emmy, Laure, Dorotea and Shana staring outside in total disbelief at what was occurring.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kendra stood outside the General's room, glancing nervously around before opening the door just enough to scoot Sugar inside, before a sneeze hit. Turning around to go, she bumped into a solid mass of sweaty muscle, making her softly eeeep as she followed the tight torso all the way up to the General's azure eyes.

"I was wondering where some of you grrls disappeared to," he sighed as he opened the door all the way and ushered her inside, making the frosh Ho's heart race. "I see you found Sugar," The General grinned before kissing the Ho senseless as they stumbled to the bed.

"Ahhh, huh..." She said in hormonal overload, as his eyes blazed with mischief, neither one noticing the door being left slightly ajar and two black and orange blurs running inside, heading straight under the bed to romp with Sugar.

Suddenly Kendra pushed the General away, nearly sending him off the other side of the bed as she sat up and began to sneeze uncontrollably. Without warning, his mood was completely shattered when he felt the odd twinges of a sneeze coming on himself. And within minutes, the peaceful resolved was no more, both were sneezing like there was no tomorrow.

"Cats?" He questioned the Frosh as she nodded her head in agreement as they both dropped to the floor looking for the culprit, finding only Sugar, lounging beneath his bed. Neither noticing the tiger cubs making a hasty exit moments before, in search of less demanding prey than Sugar.

"I've got allergy medicine from the temple," he sighed as he went into the bathroom and looked with red rimmed eyes, into the medicine chest and grabbed the bottle, only to find it empty. "Oh, bloody hell." The General sighed loudly as he hung his head, "what more could happen." "Come on, we're getting out of here," he stated as he walked back into the bedroom and grabbed the sneezing Ho's hand to drag her to the clinic to get something for both of them to take.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Judy glanced down the hall to find the General dragging Kendra behind him and just shook her head as both sneezed. "What else could happen," she groaned as she saw the two head towards the clinic and she skirted off in the other direction to the emergency meeting in Laure's office. "No, booze, no nutella, daily exercise, this is going to be one happy place to be around." She mumbled aloud as Jael flew down the hall, a low fat sticker in her hand.

"Great, wonder how bad nutella withdrawal is?" Kymira griped as she walked up behind Judy, "I wonder what the first signs are?" She mused as she checked her pulse on the way to the meeting.

"Oh, this place is going to be so much fun, let's pray they don't start serving celery for lunch or we might have a revolt..." Judy sighed.
