Background: One of my professors is into fan fiction. So, for extra credit, she offered us a 100 Brain Exercise Drabbles assignment. For it, our class can write about life, our experiences, or any fan fiction genera. We can complete up to 3 different lists of 100 Drabbles for an extra 10 points, each. Since I decided to take her up on the extra credit, I figured why not post it? I hope you enjoy! (One of the best win-win situations, ever!... not to mention an all-around kick ass assignment)

#28: Crime and Punishment:

"The man has lost it. Completely and utterly gone bonkers," Jadeite muttered. He smiled to himself as Nephrite jogged past him, muttering curses under his breath. Nephrite must have been thinking the same thoughts.

"MOVE," barked Kunzite from his perch in the middle of the field. Nephrite and Jadeite exchanged glances and picked their feet up. Kunzite had them running 16 miles this charming Saturday morning. Certainly he could run 16 miles easy, no sweat! But for no good reason and on a Saturday before dawn?

They had just returned from yet another round of meetings between Earth and the Moon. He thought that the meetings went rather well, not to mention he was perpetually in the company of an enchanting raven-haired cherub. Unfortunately, Kunzite had caught Nephrite and Makoto in a rather compromising position. Add that to a small personal dispute between Minako and himself, and Kunzite had dropped a brick. We are here on Prince Endymion's behalf- for business, he had fumed. Jadeite thought that Kunzite figured the other Shitennou were just rubbing it in that they were not arguing with their Senshi and thus reaped the benefits of such peace.

Zoisite had come puffing up to where Nephrite and Jadeite ran together. "Just because he didn't get any this week, doesn't mean we should have to suffer," he scowled.

Nephrite looked amused. "If he wants to pick fights with the Princess of Venus, he doesn't need to take out his frustration on us," he agreed.

"More like sexual frustration," Jadeite grimaced. Sure, they had all had their fights with their Senshi, but unfortunately, they didn't have the power that Kunzite had. If they had a fight with their Senshi, it was their own business. When Kunzite and Minako had a fight, the Shitennou and Senshi knew first hand about it, and suffered the consequences for it.

"I said, move," Kunzite yelled again. "I bet you were nowhere near this slow when you were with your girlfriends." They looked up as Kunzite's rants were interrupted by Endymion's presence. They continued jogging as they watched the two engage in a heated discussion. Kunzite's back stiffened and they watched in shock as Kunzite jogged down to join them. They jogged for a couple of yards, looking expectantly at Kunzite. When he said nothing, Zoisite decided to break the silence.

"Well?" he asked.

Kunzite grunted. "He asked why you three were running and I explained your flippant manner in which you conducted yourselves during these crucial meetings. Endymion then asked if I had a fight with Minako," Kunzite said scowling. "When I tried to bring his attention back to the matter at hand, he just waved his hand and said that he had a small fight with Serenity." The others looked up skeptically.

"Did he really?" asked Nephrite.

"I don't believe it," said Zoisite.

"Well, he told me that Serenity and he had a small fight and then told me that I needed to run 16 miles for it," Kunzite grumbled.

"Ha! Good ole' boy is on our side," Jadeite hooted. Nephrite, Zoisite, and Jadeite continued running with just a tiny bit more bounce to their step.
