This is just something I did for school, I thought it could be considered "fanfiction." I included this in NaNoWriMo (I'm BadLuckTuck…someone got Slagathor!) But yeah, enjoy!
"C'mon, Alex, we're going to be late for school!"
Alexandra Finch stepped out of the doorway with a pout on her face. She was wearing a neat blue dress and nice shoes, much too fancy for going to a school in Maycomb county.
"I was tryin' on Ma's lipstick," she said, puckering her lips which were an ungodly shade of red.
"Aw, hush, Al," said Jack Finch, who also appeared in the doorway, eating an apple. "You're not even thirteen, Ma's gonna have a fit when she sees those chili peppers you call lips!"
It was Jack Finch's first day of school. The middle child, Atticus Finch, was told to keep an eye out on him. "I don't want no older children picking on him," said his mother the night before. "As long as you're going to that school, you should keep an eye out on your brother." Atticus was starting the fourth grade at Maycomb County School, while his big sister was a seventh grader at the Junior High. Atticus was sure that Jack would be fine, he had a big sense of humor and could laugh his way out of anything. But then again, it was his baby brother. Why risk anything?
"Why do I have to take this from some first-grade baby?"
"'Cause Ma said she wanted all of her sons to behave!"
"You callin' me a man, you slug?"
Atticus was worried that at this rate, they would never get to school. "Guys…"
"Shoot, no! If anythin', I'd say you look like a monkey!"
Atticus quickly grabbed Alexandra's hand right before she slugged her younger brother. "C'mon, guys, we have to get to school! Imagine what the teacher's gonna think if Jack walked in late with a shiner!" Alexandra shot Jack a dirty look as they both walked off.
