(A/N: The classes are short in this chapter because I have to introduce them all.)
Chapter 2:
First Days Suck!
It was…
5:58am
5:59am
5…4…3…2…1… 'BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP'
"Ahhhhhhhh!" screamed Alani as she fell out of bed.
"WHAT!" screamed a delirious Rishae.
"WHO!" shouted Michelle sitting up.
"Shut up and go back to sleep…" said Emilee unmoving from her sleeping position.
"Owww…I hate it when that happens!" said Alani rubbing her head.
"Wow, and I thought that we would wake up like normal people." said Rishae climbing out of bed. I'm going to go freshen up and get dressed. "Bye." She walked over to the closet. "Sooo where's the bathroom?" said a puzzled Rishae looking into the closet.
"Over there…behind the drapes." said Emilee grinning.
It was…
5:58am
5:59am
5…4…3…2…1… (SILENCE)
6:00 am and 5 seconds
"AHHHHHH!" 'BOOM'
"WHOA, WHAT WAS THAT!" said Devonte as he sat up in his bed.
"Girls, that's exactly what it is…now shut up and go back to sleep." said Carlos from under his covers.
"Whatever Carlos. Breakfast starts in an hour and we should get ready." said Thai.
"Yeah, but then again, breakfast is an hour and thirty minutes so I think I will sleep in." said Carlos.
"Has anyone seen Carnell? He's not in his bed." said Devonte.
"Well I'm all dressed and ready for breakfast!" said Carnell walking through the door.
"Where were you?" asked curios/confused Thai.
"I went to the bathroom early to avoid the rush hour which started 5 seconds ago." said Carnell looking at his watch.
"What do you mean 'rush hour'?" asked Devonte.
"Take a look for yourself." Carnell then went to open the door. Thai, Devonte, and Carlos (finally getting out of bed) looked out the door.
"What the heck!" said Carlos. There was a giant line to enter the bathroom.
"There is no way we're going to be able to wash and get to breakfast on time." said Devonte.
"Well, we might as well start waiting." said Thai walking to the back of the line. As they were walking they saw the girls they had met the other day.
"Rishae…what do you mean "where's the bathroom"?" asked Emilee. "There's a whole line leading to where the bathroom is!"
"Well, it looked like…oh hi guys!" said Rishae waving to the three oncoming boys.
"Here for the bathroom?" asked Michelle.
"Yeah…but aren't there separate bathrooms?" asked Thai.
"Yeah, that's why there is two separate lines." said Rishae with 'a matter of factly' voice.
"Whoa …definitely didn't see that. Well—" Thai was cut off by Alani's voice.
"You guys! Look I found several more bathrooms in this place. The other kids must be too lazy to go to them." said Alani lowering her voice so no one but the seven of them heard. "On the second floor there are 4 sets of bathrooms and on the first floor there are 6 sets. Also up here there are 8 sets! Let's go, but move discreetly so no one follows…OK?" asked Alani.
"Ok!" they all answered.
"Okay dokey!" said a random voice. Everyone turned to look at the person.
"YOU! What are YOU doing here!" said Rishae pointing a finger at Ami.
"I just thought I would tip everyone about…(She then turned around to face the long line of kids.)…THE EXTRA BATHROOMS ON THE SECOND, THIRD, AND FIRST FLOOR!" Ami screamed. The line scattered out quickly.
"Well your plan didn't really work to a disadvantage, but to an advantage because there are no lines." said Emilee smugly.
"Yeah, but there is someone in the bathroom." said Ami.
"Really now, who?" asked Michelle.
"ME!" said Ami and she ran in the bathroom and locked the door.
"Oh I oughtta…!" said Rishae thrashing at the door. "COME OUT YOU EVIL CONNIVING PIECE OF CRAP!" she screamed.
"Lucky for you boys…the bathrooms open." said Alani.
"Well, let's go check the other bathrooms…bye guys." said Emilee. The girls a around the whole school and could not find a bathroom without a giant line. They got in the shortest one they saw and waited.
"Well so much for breakfast." said Emilee. It was already 7:55pm.
By the time all the girls were washed and dressed it was 8:10.
"Come on we can make it in time. We have 20 minutes to spare!" said Michelle as she ran toward the cafeteria. It took 5 minutes to get there because Michelle claimed she had a shortcut to the cafeteria.
"Yes we finally made it!" said Alani.
"Whoa…don't be so excited Alani. Look over there." said Rishae. Everyone followed her gaze toward the huge line that was all the bathroom lines combined, then multiplied by 100. Emilee was in pure shock.
"Wait…I'll be right back." said Emilee coming back into reality.
"Ok, we'll save your spot. Alani do you know how to get…Oh my gosh! Emilee what are you doing?" said Rishae. Rishae ran over to her friend that was repeatedly hitting her head on the wall.
"If (thud) I (thud) wait (thud) in (thud) one (thud) more (thud) line (thud)…" said Emilee between hitting her head on the wall. Rishae pulled her away from the wall and staring faces and dragged her towards Alani and Michelle.
"What were you doing, crazy?" asked Michelle.
"See this is exactly why I cannot wake up early in the morning!" said Emilee with a red spot forming on her forehead.
"Ok…Look there's only one more person then we can go!" said Alani. Well unfortunate for the girls the person ahead of them was very picky so he took a while looking for the right piece of bacon and sausage and the right amount of eggs. He couldn't have too much or too little orange juice but just enough that he wouldn't be thirsty after or full. After 14 minutes he finally left the line.
"That was so stupid! Why the heck would you take so long!" said Emilee already pissed off because of the bad start of the morning.
"I would like—" started Michelle eyeing the bacon.
"Sorry breakfast is over." said the lunch lady putting covers over all the food.
"WHAT!" they yelled.
"Look woman!" said Rishae getting in the woman's face. "I've been waiting in this stinkin' line just to get some breakfast and DOG GONNIT I'm going to get some!" said Rishae pointing her index finger at the lady.
"Come on Rishae…" said Alani grabbing Rishae's arm.
"Don't start stuff!" said Emilee grabbing Rishae's other arm.
"Let it go…we can go one day without breakfast!" said Michelle pulling Rishae back by the shoulders.
As everyone was leaving the girls saw the boys and decided to talk to them.
"Hey guys. What's up with Rishae?" asked Thai looking concerned that the anger would be directed toward him.
"The lunch lady stopped serving breakfast as soon as we got up there." said Michelle.
"Yeah. I think it's best if nobody insults, argues or angers her in anyway until she calms down." said Alani.
"Hey look who it is…Puffball and company!" said Ami walking toward the group.
"Oh my gosh she is asking for it and she is asking for it hard!" said Rishae.
"Why don't you—" started Ami pointing a finger at Rishae, but stopped as Rishae stepped closer to her.
"If you don't get that nasty little finger out my face I will snap it and point it right back at ya! Look, I don't have time for your petty insults and your presence is annoying the crap out of me! I am already pissed and I did NOT have breakfast so I will be agitated all day. I suggest you stay out of my way and do NOT come near me unless you wish to lose that precious little face of yours right along with the rest of your body. Thank You! Not get out of my face I have more important things to do!" said Rishae as she stomped towards her first period class. The rest of the group caught up with her.
"Wow, I don't ever want to be on her bad side." Carlos whispered to Thai.
"True." Thai said a little scared. "I still have breakfast bars left…do you girls want one?" asked Thai.
"Sure." they said as they took the bars out of Thai's hands.
FIRST PERIOD: SOCIAL STUDIES
The classroom had maps of the Kanjoenn Region all over the place. It also had pictures of ancient and extinct Pokemon. The group managed to get a table with eight seats. The bell rang and a teacher walked in. He was a tall young man at 22 and was dressed casually in a green top and burgundy shorts. He had short brown hair and a burgundy headband and right behind him came a Marill.
"Hello, I'm Tracey Sketchit." he said. (Actual last name…I searched it…Did you catch the little joke in his name. I say someone is getting uncreative…come on Sketch it?) "You can call me Mr. Tracey, Mr. Sketchit… heck! You can call me anything as long as it has a Mr. in front of it!" he laughed…none of the kids joined in. "Heh heh…yeah…so, I'll call roll and just say here and raise your hands so I know who you are. Umm…alright, Emilee Ivory?"
"Huh?" asked Emilee raising her head off the desk. "Oh yeah…here."
"Rishae Spotter?"
"Here."
"Thai Kumazi?"
"Here."
"Carlos Alfonso?"
"Here."
"Devonte Carson?"
"Present."
"You just gotta be the odd ball. Well anyway Alani Honawa?"
"Here."
"Michelle Bishop?"
"Here."
"Carnell Valentine?"
"Here."
"Ami Kashi?"
"Here."
"Ariel Jarar?"
"Here."
"Jalisa Santanna?"
"Here."
"Indigo Fitzsua?"
"Here."
"Damion Mack?"
"Here." All the girls turned around to see who it was. He had tanned skin with dark wavy hair and chocolate eyes any girl would melt for.
"Gorgeous." said Alani staring at him.
"To bad…you can't have him. He's so mine." said Ami giving Alani a challenging glare. Alani turned away from Ami quickly. Rishae then turned around and shook her fist at Ami and glared.
"Phillip Richards."
"Here." The girls turned around again. He had glasses, creamy skin, green eyes and sandy blonde. He was average height for an 16 year old, but would look really short standing next to the other guys.
"Nothin' Special." said Ariel.
"Oh shut up. You're no better." said Emilee. Phillip then stared at Emilee. Emilee getting creeped out, turned and faced Mr. Sketchit.
"Zackory Campbell?"
"Here. You can call me Zack, though." said Zack, a Caucasian boy with sandy colored skin and platinum blonde hair.
"Last, but not least Blaze Vicks?" (Love that name!)
"Hey." said Blaze, a Caribbean boy with brown skin and curly black hair. He had black sunglasses on and a hat on his head. He looked like the kind of person that was cool and if you were cool, he didn't care because he knew he was cooler than you.
(That roll call was just to show some of the other characters that are going to be in their class. Their not super special, but play certain parts…if they're lucky.)
"Alright I guess I should tell you what this course is about. This year we're learning about Kanjoenn's cities, landscapes, history and things like that."
The class looked back at him with a blank stare.
"I know, you'll probably think this course is going to be boring as heck and you're right: It is as boring as heck. I fell asleep reading the lesson plan this morning. The plus side is that I'm young and know how to have fun…so I believe this is going to be a great year!" exclaimed Mr. Sketchit. He turned around towards the board.
()
"Whoa that time already! Well off to your next…" He turned around and the class was gone. "Wow, I wasn't that bad was I Marill?" turning to the spot Marill had once been to find Marill was no where to be seen. "I was that bad…" he then packed up and left.
SECOND PERIOD: POKEMON JOURNEY
They traveled across the school to their next class. They looked around the classroom and found they had the same people in their class from before. Once again the bell rang and a teacher walked through the door. He was neither tall nor short but just in between. He had spiky black hair and a Pokeball design on the baseball cap he was wearing. He wore jeans and a black top with a yellow stripe through the middle. A Pikachu followed him into the room. (Must I tell you who he is?)
"Hi I'm—" started the man throwing his suitcase on the desk uncaringly.
"THE ASH KETCHUM!" said all the females in the room swooning over their teacher.
"Yes I—"
"COMPLETED YOUR MISSION AND DECIDED YOU WANTED TO PERSUADE MORE KIDS TO FOLLOW YOUR FOOT STEPS?" they asked synchronizing in their question.
"Basically. Well since I have you girls to finish my sentences—"
"YOU BASICALLY DON'T NEED TO TEACH ANYMORE!" said the girls.
"Well can you please—"
"STOP BECAUSE THIS IS GETTING CREEPY? Oh I guess we should stop." the girls said looking embarrassed.
"Well this year you'll be learning about the concept of traveling and what it is all about. You will learn what you'll be doing, how you should train and things like that. So…any questions?" He stared at their admiring yet creepy faces.
"Well—" started Ami.
()
"Well, look at the time…I should be going!" said Mr. Ketchum as he ran out of the classroom.
The group of eight exited the classroom.
"That was creepy how everyone finished his sentences." said Emilee.
"Letter D, you were too. (A/N: For all of those people who don't remember the first chapter, remember when Emilee said "I'm letter D and I don't need E on this one." Good. Read on!) When the author typed "said all the females in the classroom" the author meant you too." said Ariel out of no where. "Unless you are…a boy! I always knew it!" she said laughing at a not-worthy-of- laughing-at insult with the rest of the girls in her corny group following her.
"Why are you even here? Well, that doesn't matter. I can solve this easily." said Emilee.
Emilee's hand then moved to her pocket. She pulled something out and threw it Ariel, which smacked her dead in the face. When Ariel hit the ground, they all saw it was a shoe. (Sorry, for all you readers who were reading Kanjoenn Region…I couldn't bear to let the shoe throwing go.)
"Problem solved…alright let's go to Language." said Emilee looking at the schedule. When Emilee turned her back, Ariel picked up the shoe and tried to throw it at Emilee. As soon as the shoe was released from her hand it boomeranged back and hit her and the rest of the girls in the face.
"My super-power…not yours." said Emilee as the shoe came towards her direction and she caught it. "Now once again let's go to Language before we're late.
THIRD PERIOD: LANGUAGE(Now I shall introduce a teacher that is at my school!)
For once, the teacher was actually in the classroom when the class entered. He turned around as the bell rang. The kids absorbed all his features. He was skinny and had grey hair. He looked very timid, around the age of 50 and had bird like features. The thing that distracted all the children was the big, bubble looking, round, pink, hairy, and jiggled when he talked was a nasty looking mole, or boil. They didn't know what it was. (I don't even know what it is and I look at it every day! (It's very hard to ignore.))
"Hello class, uh, I'm, uh, Mr. Manning…" as soon as he started talking Emilee's head hit the desk and she was asleep. His voice could be described as monotone and slow.
"Uhhh, this year, um, we'll be talking, um, about how to, uh, talk! Isn't that, uhhh, exciting?" said Mr. Manning while pacing the room. No one was sure if that was sarcasm or not.
"Uhhh, let me call, um, roll." said Mr. Manning picking up his roll book. He then called roll, but when he got to Emilee she didn't answer.
"Oh, she's right here… she's jussa little tired is all." said Michelle.
"You mean she is just a little tired that is all." said Mr. Manning.
"Nooo…" said Michelle shaking her head. "I mean she's jussa little tired is all." said Michelle.
"That's improper English." said Mr. Manning getting angry.
"No it ain't!" said Rishae.
"That's even worst!" said Mr. Manning.
"Says who?" asked Devonte.
"I do, the Language teacher! Aarghhhhhh!" Mr. Manning was officially pissed. "That is it! Whoever uses improper English gets detention from now on! You are no longer allowed to shorten words, but you must enunciate every letter pos-si-ble. "
"Whatz happenin'" said Emilee awaking because of all the yelling.
"You, young lady have detention!" said Mr. Manning.
"For what reason?" asked Emilee.
"Improper grammar, incomplete sentence, incomplete words—" ranted Mr. Manning.
"I believe that the apprehension for your vexation is that undoubtedly the juvenile converses with a dialect that you adults call "slang", am I right Mr. Manning?" asked Phillip.
"Well yes, go on." said Mr. Manning. All of the kid's were dumbstruck…literally, struck by stupidity because of the large use of vocabulary words.
"Since this is a Language class, we should be able to express ourselves in any way of speaking for the only thing that should be counted is when we write it down on paper, am I right again Mr. Manning?"
"Well—"
"Because if I am, this rule of detention because speaking our own dialect, should be stopped immediately." said Phillip.
"Okay." said Mr. Manning a little embarrassed by being shown up by a student. "Right, well the rule is no longer in affect. Well—"
()
"Class dismissed." said Mr. Manning.
They were walking out of the classroom, when Phillip stopped Emilee.
"Thank You for stopping that rude Ariel girl for bestowing upon me a great shame about my physical features." said Phillip.
Rishae, getting smart all of a sudden, translated for the group.
"He said that you stopped her from teasing him." said Rishae.
"And…" said Thai also getting smarter and pushing Rishae out of the way. "From having himself embarrassed."
"Why'd you push me?" said Rishae, her fist growing to a large size.
"Sorry, it was an accident!" said Thai cowering in fear.
"That is becoming your favorite excuse isn't it?" said Rishae coming closer and her nostrils smoking. "But, since you gave me breakfast bars…I'll let it go." Rishae then smiled and walked with the girls to the fourth period class.
"She is psycho." whispered Thai to the boys.
"What was that Thai!" yelled Rishae from down the hall.
"Nothing." whimpered Thai.
"That's what I thought you said." yelled Rishae.
"Ha…she's got you in check." said Carnell laughing at Thai.
"You better not answer that or she'll come down here and get you." laughed Devonte. Carnell stopped laughing.
"Man, that wasn't even funny…just killed the joke. Gosh!" said Carnell.
"It's amazing how a breakfast bar can save your life." said Carlos. Everyone laughed.
"It's also amazing how—" started Devonte.
"SHUT UP!" they all screamed at him.
FOURTH PERIOD: MATH
"Hello I'm Professor Ivy." said a lady with long purple hair and long lab coat on over a dress. "Welcome to the world of Mathematics!" she said enthusiastically. "Today I'll be passing out your Math 1 text books. As soon as you get the books write your names inside for if they get lost and/or stolen we can search around for it, but if you don't write your name…(she went to the board and started writing numbers) this is your fine!" Professor Ivy yelled.
"I could have sworn she was writing everyone's phone numbers…plus the area codes…AND the 1's for long distance!" said Carlos.
"Alright we'll be—"
(BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP)
"Whoa!" exclaimed Professor Ivy, "It is too early for class to be over. It's only been 5 minutes since class has started."
"Professor Ivy this is the fire alarm, not the ending bell." said Blaze, calmly, speaking for the first time. (Excluding attendance) "Maybe…I don't know…we should get out of the building?" he said coolly, like the cool guy he is.
"Hmm...Right." Professor Ivy said, shocked by his calmness. "Come on class!"
She then escorted them outside and took attendance. The bad thing about the fire was that it was a DRILL, it was cold outside, half of the children were wearing short sleeves, and they were outside for 30 minutes. After the kids were half frozen, some half dead, Principal Jenny appeared with a mega phone and told them to go back inside. As soon as the kids were inside their classes and were thawed out, Professor Ivy began to speak.
"We'll be learning—" she started pointing to an equation on the board.
()
"Class dismissed." Mrs. Ivory said with a sigh, upset that she didn't get a word in about math.
"Well that was a load of nonsense!" said Michelle.
"Personally, I thought fire drills weren't in the category of nonsense." said Carnell.
"Oh, you know what I mean!" said Michelle.
FIFTH PERIOD: SCIENCE
"Hi!" said an energetic teacher as they walked in the classroom and jumping from behind the door thus scaring the children. He was wearing brown trousers and a read polo shirt with a white lab coat over it. He was slightly eccentric and not always focused, but intelligent nonetheless.
"Hi, again! I'm Professor Oak and I'm your science teacher! We're going to have so much fun! Even when we have exams to do! This is the year when we conduct a lot of experiments. And when I say experiments I mean chemicals, solids, gases, and if we're lucky plasma!" shouted Professor Oak.
Some kids were terrified while some were hyped up and some were stuck in the middle.
He ranted on like this for the next 30 minutes. "…We'll mix, and smash, and mash, and slash, and chop, and stir, and freeze, and melt, and anything else that can be done with an instrument of destruction in your hand! HA HA HA HA HA!" exclaimed Professor Oak. "Sorry if I scared you in any way…I had an overdose of coffee…WAIT, that was an understatement I had a splurge, yeah a SPLURGE!" then he passed out on the floor and the bell rang.
The kids stepped over their Professor and walked out of the room.
"If I didn't know better," said Rishae once they were out of the room, "I would call him crazy, but then again I don't know better." she said.
"I actually like him!" said Carlos.
"Why?" asked a curios Emilee.
"He'll keep me awake or wake me up when I'm still feeling my pillow and blanket if you know what I'm saying." Carlos said.
"Yeah, he tore my blanket and pillow feeling right away and replaced it with fear for my life." said Emilee.
"OMG!" said Devonte and Carlos.
"What?" everyone else asked concerned.
"IT'S LUNCH TIME!" Carlos and Devonte said in unison.
They soon heard a growl and a couple of 'get out of my way suckers' when the girls ran over the boys and sprinted into the lunch room. The boys, now with their bodies pressed into the ground gave a whimper of pain and stood up. They then looked at their imprints in the ground and declared to each other that they would never get in a female's way again when it is lunch time.
PERIOD 6: AT LUNCH…
Since the four girls had crushed everyone into the floor they were first for lunch.
"Yes…I am feeling good!" said Rishae as she bit into her soft shell taco.
"I feel ya!" said Alani through a mouthful of chicken tenders.
"My stomach never felt so good." said Michelle.
"How can you guys eat this government food? I bet that isn't really meat or that isn't really cheese! But me, I got the real deal!" said Emilee reaching into her book bag. She placed a giant box on the table. "CHEEZ-ITS!" she said with a toothy smile.
"So, do you always carry that with you?" asked Devonte.
"Let's see…" said Emilee reading a paper that appeared out of thin air. "In the Guide to ObnoxiouslyFunny's Randomness, it reads on page 5, paragraph 2, and clause 3 that Emilee's box of Cheez-its will appear randomly at any convenient time, or place. So, this means when I need it, it'll appear even when I'm not carrying it on my person." said Emilee.
"That's kind of random." said Devonte.
"Hence the name of the book!" said Emilee thoroughly amazed at his stupidity.
"HOLD IT!" screamed someone in a crowd. They ran up to Devonte. They were dressed in blue police uniforms. It was a group of 2 boys and 2 girls that held up a badge and stuck it on Devonte's shirt.
"You are OFFICIALLY STUPID! You have collected one badge for this year! Thank You!" said a female. She turned on her heel and left while the other's followed suit.
"Was it really necessary for them to declare you're officially stupid in front of everyone?" asked Alani.
"Yeah I know…especially when he does it everyday." said Thai bursting out in laughter.
"You know Thai…that was probably a giggle, but all that laughter…just wasn't needed." Rishae said looking at Thai when he kept on laughing loudly and obnoxiously.
"Come on guys, we have to go the ending bell for lunch just rang and we have to walk across campus to get to the theatre for drama." said Michelle.
After they had thrown their trash away they were off to drama.
SEVENTH PERIOD: DRAMA
Carnell looked around the giant auditorium that looked like it could sit 1,000 people and a stage that was high off the ground and pretty large. There were many reasons why Carnell didn't like drama. There was the stage…and the audience you had to stand in front of and talk as if it's just you and your friends having a chat in your room. Stage fright was one thing that could happen during a play or it was just the possibility being embarrassed in front of many people that you would see again. (If it was a school pay) The group of eight, not knowing where to go, just sat in the front row waiting for the drama instructor to come in. It looked like a joined class because several kids were coming in.
"Hello my dear actor-ees, welcome to Mrs. Xavier's drama, and theatre class. The play we will be doing is…TO BE A POKEMON MASTER! Try outs will start September 12 and the parts will be cast the following day. Everyone will have to try out..." she said then looked at a couple of raised hands, "Everyone!" she said as the hands fell. "There will be a stage crew sign up sheet after the parts are given." she said walking towards the stage.
"Great!" exclaimed Carnell as his friends looked at him as if he were crazy. "No, I mean great now I don't have to have a part! I can fail the try out on purpose thus getting a part in the stage crew! Yes!" said Carnell telling his friends his idea. Apparently he said it a little too loud because Mrs. Xavier turned and looked at him.
"Everyone will be expected to try their hardest because if not…I WILL know and let me tell you…you WON'T be happy with the part you have at all." she said directing this to everyone even though Carnell knew it was really directed to him.
"Aw man, aw man, aw man!" said Carnell placing his head in his hands.
"Why do you hate drama so much?" asked Emilee.
"I had a bad experience with it when I was 7." mumbled Carnell.
"Typical, when bad things happen when people are at a young age it can be triggered when they are an adult thus scarring them for life." said Phillip in a know-it-all way. Everyone stared at him. "I heard it on the Discovery Channel." said Phillip shrugging his shoulders.
"Well, what happened?" asked everyone. (When I say everyone I mean the 7 main characters plus Phillip (I didn't include Carnell because he is telling the story and this is for those of you who are about to click the back button to the first chapter to count the profiles.))
"I remember it as if it were 4 years ago…" said Carnell.
"It was wasn't it? You said you were seve—"
"Yes, yes I know!" said Carnell cutting Thai off. "Well like I was saying, I remember it as if it were 4 years ago…
(Carnell's FLASH BACK)
"Mom, when are we going to get there?" asked the seven year old Carnell.
"When we get there. Now say your auditioning line again." demanded Mrs. Valentine. Carnell was trying out for the part of young Jim in the city's play.
"If I was a litttttttle bit taller and a litttttttttle bit stronger I'd be able to be a Pokemon Master!" said Carnell with all the feeling in the world.
"Then what?" asked Mrs. Valentine smiling at her son.
"I take a low bow and smile my cute toothy smile!" said Carnell practicing in the mirror.
"That'll win 'em over for sure!" said Mrs. Valentine. They drove a little bit longer and finally pulled into the city's theatre. "Here we are!" she said climbing out of the car, pulling Carnell out behind her. They walked into the theatre and saw a sign in desk.
"Hiya there!" said a lady with bushy brown hair and loads of make up. "Are you Carnell Valentine?" she asked Carnell with a plastered smile on her face.
"Yes ma'am!" he said nodding his head.
"Ok, well you go in there and take this card with you. When they call number 22, that's when you walk on stage, alright sweetie?"
"Yes." said Carnell.
"Mrs. Valentine you can go watch in the audience if you wish." said the lady, her face stretching into a big yellow-toothed smile. Carnell shuddered because she looked like a clown.
"Alright, do well Carnell…remember smile and bow!" said Mrs. Valentine shooting up a thumbs up sign.
"Ok mom!" smiled Carnell shooting the sign back up at her. They went their separate ways.
Carnell waited back stage until the judges announced his number. While he was waiting there were many boys before him. One stood out particularly because he was really good. He had red hair, blue eyes and was tall and lanky. He knew the boy was good, but Carnell thought he could definitely do better. The judge asked the boy to wait behind stage until it was time to decide who would have the part.
"Alright number 22, come out!" said the judge.
"22, are you auditioning for the part of the young Jim?" asked a man with an extremely pointy nose and glasses on the very end of it.
"Yes sir!" exclaimed Carnell smiling as hard as he could.
"Alright, start." said the man sounding bored.
"If I was a litttttttle bit taller and a litttttttttle bit stronger I'd be able to be a Pokemon Master!" said Carnell loudly into the microphone.
"Alright since you're the last person who tried out for this part you stay on stage. The rest of the contestants come onto the stage please." The judge said. All the boys who tried out for the part stood in a line hoping to be called for the part.
"Alright. Our under study is Vincent Blake and the person who gets the part is CARNELL VALENTINE!" shouted the judge and everyone applauded. Carnell looked over to see who Vincent was and realized it was the red head he had seen earlier. He looked over at Carnell and glared at him.
"Thank You!" said Carnell. Then he put his hands behind his back and bowed. Little did he know what he was about to do. BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBT! A loud noise filled the auditorium. Carnell, who was in shock, stayed in his bowing position trying to process what he had done. Silence filled the auditorium.
"OMG! He FARTED!" shouted Vincent. Everyone started laughing and Carnell turned red.
"Well (giggle) see (giggle) you and (giggle) Vincent on Monday for (giggle) rehearsal!" the judge then burst out laughing.
Carnell was so happy when he left the stage and went to his mom. She hugged him and took him to the car.
Next Monday Carnell went to the theatre hoping everyone forgot his little incident. As soon as he got there the lady at the desk started giggling.
"Ohhhh, hello there Carnell you can go inside." She said with a smile. As soon as he was out of ear-shot she burst out laughing. During the whole day people made impressions and laughed behind his back. (Or at least what they thought was his back because he caught them every time.) Some of them even teased him in the open, but the worst one of all was Vincent. All Vincent did was talk about him, make fun of him and that just pissed Carnell off. One day Carnell got tired of it and quit during practice. After that Carnell hated drama.
(END OF FLASHBACK)
"And that is why I don't like Drama." said Carnell.
"Wow…that was something." said Emilee.
"Weird." said Devonte. "How come you never told me before?"
"I don't think that is a good enough reason to hate drama!" said Michelle.
"Ya think so?" asked Carnell highly offended.
"Yeah, I do! It's not as though those same people are going to be in the play with you and it's not like you're always going to bow with a microphone behind your back then fart in it. Those happen once a life time…twice if you're really unlucky. Michelle saw he was hurt and tried to change the subject. "You know what's funny?" remarked Michelle.
"What?" Carnell asked not really caring
"I have a boyfriend named Vincent." said Michelle.
"Really, the same Vincent in my story?" asked an appalled Carnell.
"Well, Carnell…how many Vincent Blakes with red hair and blue eyes do you find? We met at camp and then he ended up moving down the street from me and still does!"
There was an awkward silence between the two. Then all of a sudden there was a very loud laugh and a boy came in surrounded by many people.
"OMG, Vincent is that you!" said Michelle running towards him and embracing him in a hug.
"Hi Michelle!" he said returning the hug.
"Your mom told me that you weren't going here, but to a different regional school. But I'm so happy you're here!" she said. "Oh, here are some of my friends." said Michelle pointing to the rest of the group sitting in the seats. "This is Alani, Rishae, Emilee, Devonte, Thai, Carlos, and Carnell."
"Did you say Carnell? Did you ever try out for…"

PERIOD 8: POKEMON GYM(The period everyone has been waiting for!)
This was also a mixed class because there were so many kids. Everyone sat down on the bleachers and waited for instruction. Two tough looking teachers walked in. One male and one female.
"HELLO! I AM LT. SURGE! AND THIS IS MRS. HAWL! CAN I HEAR A HELLO?" Lt. Surge shouted. He had spiky blonde hair and was wearing a camouflaged green jumpsuit. Hellos could be heard from various places on the bleachers.
"LET ME REPEAT! MAYBE YOU DIDN'T HEAR ME! CAN I HEAR A HELLO?" he shouted blowing the kids back a little.
"HELLO!" everyone said in unison.
"MUCH BETTER! MRS. HAWL WILL BE ASSIGNING POKEMON!" said Lt. Surge. Everyone was sure that that was his regular voice.
"Awww." said some kids who obviously wanted to pick their own Pokemon.
"IF YOU MUST KNOW WHY SHE IS ASSIGNING IT IS BECAUSE LAST YEAR WE HAD SEVERAL FIST FIGHTS OVER POKEMON BECAUSE THOSE PEOPLE WANTED IT! SO BE QUIET AND LISTEN FOR YOUR NAMES!" said Lt. Surge taking a seat.
"Hello…I'm Mrs. Hawl and the first person up is…Thai Kumazi." She was about average height and spoke calmly and confidently. She wasn't as scary as Lt. Surge but she didn't look like someone you wanted to mess with.
"You have a…Bulbasaur." said Mrs. Hawl handing him a Pokeball. "Go sit near the wall."
"Wow, she looks like a Hoot Hoot…on ." whispered Carlos to Emilee.
"Shut up! You're so mean. Don't make fun of her, we don't even know her…" said Emilee. "…you gotta wait until we find out some stuff worth making fun of." she said smirking at him.
Mrs. Hawl called the rest of the names and the Pokemon and this is what they got:
Rishae-Charmander
Emilee-Squirtle
Carlos-Treecko
Carnell- Totodile
Alani-Mudkip
Michelle-Torchic
Devonte- Cyndaquil
Thai-Bulbasaur
(The other chracter's Pokemon will be revealed later in the story)
Everyone was divided between the two teachers and the eight main characters plus the other eight characters that are always in their classes plus Vincent and some other girl were in Lt. Surge's class.
"ALRIGHT! IN REGULAR GYM, YOU ARE REQUIRED TO BRING AND WEAR YOUR GYM UNIFORM EVERYDAY! EVERYTIME YOU DON'T WEAR YOUR GYM CLOTHES THEN YOU GET AN UNPREPARED AND A MINUS SEVEN ON YOUR GRADE AVERAGE. HERE ARE YOUR CLOTHES! AT THE END OF EVERY WEEK YOU MUST WASH THEM! IF NOT YOU WILL STINK…BADLY! ANY QUESTIONS?" said Lt. Surge looking around.
"Wh—" started the girl that no one knew.
"GOOD!" Lt. Surge said completely ignoring the girl. "ALSO NO POKEMON FIGHTING IN THE HALLWAYS AND YOUR POKEMON SHOULD BE WITH YOU ALWAYS! CLASS DISMISSED!" said Lt. Surge.
"But the bell didn't ring!" said Alani.
"YES IT DID!" said Lt. Surge.
"No it didn't!" said Michelle.
()
"YES IT DID! NOW GET OUT OF HERE!" he then took a giant boot and kicked them out of the door.
PERIOD 9: Reading
"Well, I like to read so I hope that—" Emilee then started clutching her throat and coughing.
"Oh no! She's choking!" shouted Alani. Everyone ran over to Emilee trying to help her and asking her what was wrong.
"The…smell!" said Emilee. Just then a strong scent came into the classroom and punched them in the noses. They all started choking on the horrible smell. Then a breath of fresh air swept through the room. Blaze, who apparently was someone with common sense, opened up a window.
"Oh thank goodness!" said Michelle breathing in the fresh air.
"What was that?" asked Emilee looking around.
All of a sudden the strong became ten times stronger even though the window was open.
"HELLOOOOOO!" shouted a voice coming from the door.
Period 10: Culinary Arts
They walked into a kitchen full of tantalizing smells and scents. There were pots and pans every where! And in the center of it all was Brock! (All the Pokemon fans cheer)
"Hello I'm Brock, well I'm Mr. Brock to you! I bet most of you are wondering…Why do I have to take culinary arts? Well the reason is how else are you going to learn to cook on your Pokemon Journey or whatever career you're taking after that!" he said with a smile.
"I thought you wanted to be a Pokemon Breeder?" asked Jalisa.
"I did but Officer Jenny asked me to do this job and I couldn't refuse!" he said smiling.
"Alright in this class you will learn how to cook…of course. Your Homework is—"
"Awwwww man!" they mumbled.
"Listen, your homework is to bring in a recipe for your favorite food. That's all." said Brock. Then he passed out cookies and fruit and by the time they were finished eating the class was over and they were allowed to go back to their rooms.
The eight went into the girls' rooms because the girls claimed that the boys' room would be messy and stinky. (which was true)
"Wow what a day!" said Alani chewing on a piece of gum.
"Yeah, I guess it was kind of cool I guess, but then again the teacher's were crazy except Brock." said Thai sitting on Rishae's bed.
"True." said Rishae pushing off and letting him drop on the ground.
"Hey! Why'd you push me of your bed? Everyone else is sharing and there is no more room for me on any other bed but yours!" said Thai.
"But there is plenty of room on the floor." smiled Rishae.
"Big head…" mumbled Thai.
"You're lucky I'm letting that go!" said Rishae glaring at Thai.
"Well I'll—" started Thai but stopped when he saw Rishae's face.
"You'll what?" she said, her eyes cutting through him.
"Come on guys can you stop arguing?" asked Carlos.
"Don't make me throw a shoe over there." threatened Emilee.
"Yeah well we're going to get dinner." said Devonte and Carnell.
"But we're not done talking!" said Alani and Michelle.
"Well, my stomach's been talking, yelling actually. It says I need to go eat some dinner!" said Devonte.
"Let's just leave our conversation like this," said Carlos getting up and standing next to Carnell and Devonte, "First. Days. SUCK!" he said and left the room.
"True, now let's go get some dinner and end the chapter." said Alani.
