I got another idea! So... yeah! If this doesn't make any sense in terms of school, I've only been to a tiny private school...
It was the first day of middle school for Sector V of the Kids Next Door.
The five kids sat together on the bus as usual. Nigel was being paranoid about the 8th graders. Hoagie was eating (big surprise there), Kuki was blabbering about Rainbow Monkeys, Wally was annoyed by Kuki, and Abby was listening to Kuki. But soon the bus pulled into Gallagher Middle School.
They ran off the bus and went to the front, where teachers were handing out the schedules. Once they had gotten their schedules, they compared them with each other.
"I've got the same math, Spanish, and French as Nigel and Abby," Kuki said.
"Looks like I've got the same English as Abby," Hoagie said. "And health with Kuki. We all have the same lunch, except for Wally."
"I don't have any classes with you guys," Wally mumbled.
"Not even lunch?" Kuki exclaimed. She looked at his schedule. "Wow."
The bell rang at that moment. "It's time for homeroom," Nigel told them. "See you guys later."
Wally walked into his homeroom class and sat down in the middle of the classroom. He put his backpack on the floor and took out his drawing pad. That was one of his many secrets; drawing. His latest sketch was of a nest of birds.
He felt a tap on his shoulder. "Nice drawing."
Wally looked around. He saw a girl with blonde hair and bright blue eyes grinning at him.
"Nixie?" he whispered.
Wally couldn't remember the last time he saw his sister.
It had all happened so quickly. His parents got divorced, and his 2 sisters and brother lived with their mom all the way across town, while he had to stay with his dad.
Oh, joy.
His dad remarried. They had a kid. That wasn't strange; that happens all the time.
What was strange was the fact that he had to call his stepmom "Mom".
It was strange that since she was Australian, they had to pretend to be Australian so she would fit in more. What the hell? That didn't even make sense!
And the "Wallabee" name. Why couldn't he just be called Wallace? What the fucking hell?
And the one thing that definitely wasn't normal was the fact that his dad would hit him all the time. It started out with a slap. It got worse quickly.
It definitely didn't help that he was the one blamed for the divorce.
"Wallace!" Nixie exclaimed. She gave him a hug. "I can't believe we're going to the same middle school! I hope we have more classes together! What classes do you have?"
Wally pulled out his schedule, rolling his eyes at Nixie. She was always talkative. He wasn't very talkative. When you have to grow up with Nixie, you don't have much to say.
She examined their schedules. "We have the same classes!" she squealed. She peered at him. "Do you still go by 'Lace'?"
"My proper name is Wallabee Beatles," he replied. "And everyone calls me Wally."
"My proper name is Nixie Casper." She giggled. "Everyone calls me Xie, but you knew that. At lunch, we can sit with Jazzy. You know who she is?"
"Our older sister Jasmine 'Don't call me Jazzy' Casper, who's now in 8th grade."
"Correctomundo!" Nixie exclaimed. She started bouncing. "I'm so happy we're in every class together. The Casper twins unite!" She punched the air with her fist. "I'm so glad my last name was changed to Casper. Now I don't get called 'Beatle juice' every day."
That was when the many secrets of Wallabee Beatles (or should I say Wallace Casper) went out of hand.
That was the longest chapter I've ever written! I usually don't use chapters when I write, but on this site, I'm supposed to. Oh, well! And obviously, I don't own KND, blah blah blah. Why do we even need the disclaimer on these stories? If I owned KND, it wouldn't be fan fiction, would it?
