CHAPTER 1! School sucks!

"Neri, I don't care what you say. You're perfectly well and healthy to go to your lessons. NOW GET THE HELL UP!" Vaati continued to try to get his daughter out of bed to no avail.

"I don't wanna! Ezlo always grills me about not paying attention." She whined.

"Well, then, pay attention."

"But he's so boring when he teaches."

"I would know..." He grumbled.

"What's with you and trying to get me to go to my lessons? You never mind if I'm late." Neri took the blankets off of her and sat crossed-legged on the matress.

"You have school to do and I don't want to get bothered by that old coot, now get going!"

She stared at him suspiciously. "...Okay...."

After a few minutes, she was down the hall and saying hello to the servants of the palace as she walked to her Minish Lessons.

"Thank goddesses..." Vaati sighed. "I thought that child would never leave." He opened the front door of the palace, grinning at the woman standing before him. "Hello, Veran."

"Well, are you ready for that date or are you going to stand me up, again?" She pushed her way in. "If you even think about standing me up, I will personally kill you."

"No worries, I've got it all taken care of. My daughter is at her lessons so we're safe to go."

Veran grabbed the Wind Mage's arm and the two walked out together. "I don't know why you don't just tell her about us. Why would she be so upset?"

"She's my daughter, trust me."

"Fine, whatever you say."

The two continued to walk down the palace garden path, that is untill a white dragon shot out of the eastern entrance.

"SON OF A BITCH, IS IT THAT BASTARD ONOX?!" Veran shouted. "ONOX, FOR THE LAST TIME, IT IS OVER BETWEEN US!"

"...That, is my daughter. Neri, what the hell are you doing out here?!" Vaati snapped at his daughter.

"Skippin' school," was the Dragon-speech reply.

She turned off again but Vaati reached out and grabbed her tail.

"Not so fast, girl. How many times have I told you not to skip class?"

"It's boring, Ezlo sucks at teaching me about the Minish. Do you know how shitty he makes it sound? This is dangerous, that is dangerous, danger, danger, Mr. Ranger!"

"What am I going to do with you?" Vaati rubbed his head, feeling a migrane come on.

"Vaati, sweetie, I have an idea." Veran smiled sinisterly.

"What is it?"

"Well, I've done this to Onox quite a lot...keep her stuck in her dragon form."

"WHAT DID THE CRAZY LADY SAY?!" Neri shouted, paniced. "OH COME ON, DAD, YOU WOULDN'T DO THAT TO ME, RIGHT? I THOUGHT I WAS YOUR LITTLE PRINCESS!"

"You were until you skipped class." Vaati said, hitting her square in the nose with a pink ball of who the hell knows what.

"What the hell was that?" The dragoness cocked her head to the side.

"Never mind, just get back to class. You can explain to Ezlo when you get there."

"Fine," was the Dragon-Speech reply.

She turned to leave when stopped again. Wasn't she, up until now, speaking Enlglish?

"Um...Dad?"

"Oh, yeah, good luck explaining to him." Vaati smirked sinisterly. "I sugget speaking in Minish around him, otherwise, he'll be rather pissed when you keep speaking Dragon. And we both know that the Bulbins are getting rather tired of bandaging your bumps in your head."
