My first story! Well, not really story. More like another story with changes. Anyway, the real book is called Lucky Star by Cathy Cassidy. Most credit goes to her! Enjoy!

Dear Professor Pete,

I know how mad you are with me right now, and you have every right to be, but I just wanted to say, I am really, really sorry. I just didn't think that you'd get so upset about a little bit of paint, but I know better now, obviously.

I don't even know why I did it, except that I like graffiti art and I honestly thought that the wall by the gym could do with some brightening up. I guess I was wrong about that. I know now you prefer the wall to be grey, and that you really didn't like the stars and spirals and rainbows I sprayed all over it.

I admit that writing 'Toontown School House is cancelled until further notice' on the wall was not very clever, even though it seemed funny at the time. I'm sorry that some of the Toons who saw it decided to use it as an excuse to go right on home. I am also sorry that my spelling wasn't too good, and I know that was what tipped you off that I was to blame. That and the paint on my fingers.

Well, I want you to know I have learnt my lesson. Flippy (you know Flippy – my social worker) says I have messed up one time too many, and I need to wise up and make amends or else my Toontown School House career will be down the pan.

If you like, I will come in to the School House and paint the whole lot out with grey emulsion paint, so the wall is back to being plain and dull and crumbly. I would have done that already, except for being excluded and everything. Gabbie says if you see me any time soon with a bucket of paint, you'll most likely call the police, and I guess she has a point.

Anyway, I have turned over a new leaf. I am not going to tag any more walls, unless they are very neglected and really need livening up, and only then if I get permission from Toontown Headquarters or something. I am also going to work on my spelling, seriously. If you're wondering how my spelling is so good in this letter, it's because I did it on Flippy's computer and it has spell-check, as I know that stuff like that matters to you.

I know you said that my future at Toontown School House is hanging on the balance, but I want you to know that your little talk the other day has really made me think. I didn't say much, but I was taking it all in, I swear. I will be a model pupil from now on. I hope that you will give me one more chance, and I promise never to spray-paint the school again, no matter what.

Yours faithfully,

Funny Fiery Fireball
