Chapter 3

#21- Create Flying Broomsticks

After the latest Harry Potter movie reached Atlantis, the scientists had an idea. What if they could recreate them? Of course, they tried and failed, and tried and failed, and so on until they finally got it right. They were no "Nimbus 2000", but they worked.

Word of their creations leaked out, and soon mostly everyone was lined up to try it out. The medical department was soon swamped with injuries ranging from concussions to broken bones. Jennifer and Carson quickly confiscated the broomsticks and locked them up.

#22- Go Skydiving

Parachuting, Zip Lining, BASE jumping, Puddle-Jumper Surfing... what's next? Skydiving was the latest to come to Atlantis. Although most activities including parachutes had been banned, the parachutes had yet to be confiscated so they decided to put them to "good" use.

The Botany Department was the start of it though. After one of the newer experts, Annie Boter, had just come from Earth, bring her laptop with her. Her screen saver was photos of her on a skydiving trip. Katie Brown saw the photos and started talking to her about it, when the others over heard. Deciding to get in on the "Bucket List Craze" that many on Atlantis had been talking about, Katie, Annie, John, and 2 others boarded their puddle-jumper for the dive.

It worked out quite well, and everyone enjoyed it, until they landed in the water. The Pegasus-Rays decided that the parachutes were more fun to bite then the people using them. When Elizabeth saw the state of the parachutes, she almost broke down in tears.

#23- Create a Skate-Park on the North Pier

When both John and Lorne were talking over lunch, they both commented on their love of skateboarding in their teenage years and decided to build a skate-park on the North Pier. After recruiting the science department to build the skateboards and help with the ramps, and 1 week of hard work, it was finished and a lot of people came to use it.

When Elizabeth returned 2 days later from an extended off-world trip, she knew nothing, and when the Daedalus arrived, she granted permission to land on the North Pier. Of course, since they were coming in with a vertical landing, no one saw the small skate-park or the people using it.

When the people noticed it coming in fast, they got out of the way as fast as they could by jumping into the water. Although every one made it out safely, it took the rescue teams 3 hours to fish everyone out of the waters.

After Elizabeth yell herself hoarse for them not asking for permission yet again, John and Lorne sulked and mourned over the loss of their beloved skate-park.

#24- Celebrate National Fruitcake Day!

Why the chefs decided to celebrate it in the middle of July, no one knew. But one of the chefs decided they the "holiday" on December 27th should be celebrated on July 27th.

The fruitcake turned out well enough. It looked good and smelt even better. The taste and effect on those who did try a piece was not so good. Turns out that the fruit they used tasted amazing and was fine raw, but when it got warm, it released a certain protein.

After the infirmary received (and complained) about cases of indigestion, vomiting, diarrhea, and… other issues, Elizabeth quickly talked to the chefs and made them promise to NEVER make it again. Although many didn't try it, due to hatred of fruit cake, the 3rd of Atlantis that did were miserable. A few of the medical staff, including Carson, who happened to love fruitcake were now on the receiving end of the treatment, and as they say, Doctors make the worst patients!

#25- Sing "The Song That Never Ends" for as long as possible

After SGA-3 and SGA-4 started a bet between them of whichever team can sing "the song that never ends" longer would win other team's supply of chocolate and sweets, the rest of Atlantis started pulling out their hair.

Hearing "It is the song that never ends! It goes on and on my friends! Some people started singing it, not knowing what it was, and then they continued singing it just because, It is the song that never ends! It goes on and on my friends!.." over and over and over again really got on everybody's nerves.

Many people had been pin downed to not stun them. After Ronon had to be restrained from killing them with his blaster, and Elizabeth for trying to steal it to kill them, John and Rodney were desperate. After literally begging on their hands and knees on the fourth day to get Carson to sedate them, he agreed for a price. Of course, the rest of

3 boxes of tea, 2 chocolate bars, and a promised date, he finally sedated them. Everyone was grateful for the silence, but when SGA-3 and 4 woke, they had a lot of people waiting for revenge…

#26- Hold a Badminton Competition

A couple of the more "sporty" people decided to host this. All of the Marines and a lot of the scientists decided to join. The turnout was great. Each person who entered gave in an entrance fee of one candy bar. The 1st place winner would receive half of all "entrance fees" with the trophy, 2nd place would win 3 quarters of what was left leaving the last quarter to the 3rd place. Of course, when everyone heard what the winnings were, more joined, hoping to get lucky and win them.

While watching from the sides, Jennifer commented to Rodney that they should join in on the fun too. Rodney decided to try and maybe he could impress Jen, and maybe she'll agree when he asks to take her out to dinner after.

After many elimination rounds the games were finally over. "And in 1st place we have… Rodney McKay! Congratulations to everyone!"

After many congratulations McKay left with Jennifer, "That was great Rodney! Where'd you learn to play like that?"

He smiled, "When I was younger, someone told me that for some reason, badminton and science just go good together so I figured I'd try it. It was fun but I never really played it much because I had no time. You did great too."

She returned the smile with a laugh, "Yeah, but I got eliminated after the 4th round."

They continued walking in a comfortable silence before Rodney gained enough courage and broke the silence, "Um… do you… maybe… uh… want to go to dinner with me? I mean together! Wait… uh, um, I mean…"

Jennifer cut him off, "Sure, I'd love to."

He smiled happily before leading the way.

#27- Hold a Prank Day

The men of Atlantis decided to hold a "Prank Day". Basically, you play as many pranks as you can on people. The only problem was, they made three deadly mistakes: Not telling the ladies, teaming up to play the most pranks on them, and not checking the calendar dates.

Shaving cream, whipped cream, ice cubes, toilet paper, the list was endless, and the ladies, especially Elizabeth, were not happy.

#28- Getting revenge on the men…

The men's "Prank Day" caused more bad hair days, tempers, and revenge wanting women then they could ever imagine. Unfortunately for the men, the revenge wouldn't be very fun for them.

Pink nail polish, hair dye, and their favorite choice of revenge; adding Nair to the shampoo. The list went on and on of their revenge choices, and finally the men called it a truce. The men realized to NEVER piss of the women especially around 'that time' of the month.

#29- Steal Carson's Bagpipes

After Carson pissed Evan off, he decided to get even by stealing his prized bagpipes. Carson was not a happy camper but he did manage to bribe Ronon into getting them back before dishing out his revenge…

#30- Get revenge by playing the bagpipes over the comm. system at 5am

After he got the bagpipes back, he planned his revenge. At 5am sharp, Atlantis was woken up to someone playing a dreary tune on the bagpipes. Nobody was happy and to avoid any bloodshed, Elizabeth called them both to her office to call it a truce.

A/N- Hope you enjoyed! In rule #26 when Rodney says "for some reason, badminton and science just go good together", someone actually said that to me. I had to do my biography for the Canada-Wide Science Fair I had put down that I played badminton and she told me that for some reason, badminton and Science just go good together. I don't think I'm that good at it though =)

Anyways, Thanks for reading! Reviews are loved!
