Chapter 2 Show Time!

Body parts jumbled and rattled about in excitement inside Annie's giant pink "Totally Spies" roller backpack as the girl stood outside waiting for her bus to come."I can't believe it! I'm really going to school!" Armin beamed.

Annie Looked at her backpack and giggled. Armin was perhaps the only one she knew that was eager about school."are you okay in there?" Annie asked. "Uh huh!" The doll chirped. "It's so nice and cozy in here!" He added."alright Armin, here comes the bus, try not to be loud and draw any attention okay?"

"Okie dokie!" Armin replied. "Good boy" Annie smiled. Opening up her backpack, she gave Armin his white Lolita pacifier and his stuffed sheep to keep him busy. He smiled cutely sucking on it. It wasn't his bottle of milk but he'll take it. Seeing the bus pull up in front of her, she quickly zipped up her bag and boarded the vehicle.

Other children her age could be seen chatting and showing eachother their show and tells as well. She paused and looked to her right as she spotted her arch rival and frenemy, Mikasa, sitting near the front. she was a cute little Japanese girl that always wore a bored expression and a giant navy blue scarf with her her uniform.

Her eyes were a strange color. They usually appeared black but if you caught her in just the right light then they would shimmer a dark bluish grey color every now and then. Her long black hair was pulled up into two high pigtails with blue plaid ribbons holding them up, giving her a cute appearance.

Looking down next to her, Annie could see a little black poodle wearing an equally bored expression and a scarf like her owner. The dog looked up at Annie, yawned, and went back to biting it's squeaky toy.

Feeling someone glaring at her, she looked up at Annie locking eyes with her. The two girls silently and slowly Iooked each other up and down in disgust as if they've both seen a bug before finally speaking."Annie" Mikasa sneered. "Mikasa" Annie retorted. Seeing that the other seats were taken, she sat down next to her.

"I hope you know that my Show and tell will be the best in class" Mikasa leered in a smug voice petting her dog."Fluffy is the best dog there is!" Annie scowled at this comment and scoffed. "Yeah right!" The blonde snorted."that dirty mutt isn't so great!" Mikasa just chortled underneath her scarf. "Oh and like you have something better Leonhart?"

Annie growled and clutched her bag."as a matter of fact Ackerman yes I do! My show and tell is going to whoop your boring show and tell's ass!" She gasped from within the backpack hearing Annie's profanity. "What was that?" Mikasa asked looking around for the noise." Uhh nothing!" Annie replied.

Fluffy sniffed Annie's bag and immediately started barking sticking her snout in it. Armin froze up at the sight of the wet snout sniffing him. He had never been close up to a dog before, so he was pretty scared of them. Especially big ones! "Hey! Tell your smelly dog to get her nose out of my bag!" Annie scowled.

"She must really like whatever's in there" Mikasa said.

~in Annie's backpack ~ XD

Armin whimpered in fear as Fluffy continued to sniff him."g-good doggie.." The doll gulped trying not to cry. reaching out a hand, he petted her muzzle, causing her to stick her face into the bag even deeper to lick Armin. Armin giggled a bit as Fluffy lapped and tickled him with her scratchy wet tongue.

He frowned sadly however, when she accidentally made him drop his pacifier. Fluffy grabbed it with her mouth and managed to put it back in Armin's mouth making him smile again."Bad fluffy! " he heard a voice say from outside the bag. "We do not mess with our rival's things!" The voice scolded dragging Fluffy's snout from the back pack. Fluffy whined in protest at this.

As soon as the dog was gone, the backpack was zipped all the way back closed again leaving Armin to himself. "That doggie was nice" he thought to himself. He suckled his pacifier in content as he relaxed in the back pack. As excited as he was for today, he needed a little naptime. Closing his eyes, he drifted back off to sleep.

~At Sina Elementary School!~

"goodmorning class!" Annie's teacher, Miss Rial greeted. "Goodmorning Miss Rial!" The class replied. Miss Rial taught first grade. She was a cute, petite, young woman with big light brown eyes and ginger colored shoulder length hair. She wore ironed khaki pants, black dress shoes and a neat black short sleeved blouse.

"Well we all know what day it is right!? Show and tell Friday!" She chirped."so whoever's ready to present their show and tells raise their hands!" The class all murmured about in excitement as hands shot up in the air. Seeing Mikasa's hand first, she called her to the front.

"And what have you brought for us today Mikasa?" Miss Rial asked. "Meet my dog Fluffy!" She announced holding the poodle by the leash. Mild oohs and ahhs filled the room as the class went up to get a closer look at the pet. Seeing that no one else was watching her, she unzipped her backpack just enough to see Armin's face.

She tried everything in her power to not go "awwwwwww!" Armin snorted softly as he slept like a baby with his pacifier."Armin?" Annie whispered to her sleeping doll." Come on it's time to wake up! " she said. Armin slowly woke up and blinked looking at Annie."Are we there yet?" Armin yawned."yup! It's almost time for us to go up next!" She replied.

"Ooh! Really!?" Armin squealed waking up completely and bouncing his disembodied head up and down in the bag."shh not so loud!" Annie said hushing her doll. "But I can't help it Annie I'm so happy!" The doll giggled in glee. "Yeah yeah I know" Annie chuckled. "You don't have to go potty or anything do you dork?"

"Nuh uh!" Armin replied shaking his head. " And I'm still dry! " he proudly declared."good dork" the girl smiled while petting Armin's head."just like how we planned it okay!?" She asked. "Uh huh!" Armin agreed. Seeing how Mikasa's turn was over, she raised her hand next gaining Miss Rial 's attention.

"Well miss Leonhart! I'm surprised to see you this eager for show and tell! I assume you brought something good for the class?" The teacher asked."yup!" Annie nodded. Once she got in front of the class, she smiled at her fellow classmates, opened her backpack and dumped all of Armin's severed body parts out onto the floor.

"AAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" The class screamed jumping back in alarm. "ANNIE KILLED AND CHOPED UP ONE OF THE MIDDLE SCHOOL KIDS!" Connie shrieked. "Annie what in the world!?" Miss Rial squeaked. "Look!" Ymir yelled pointing at the mass of twitching doll parts.

Excited oohs and ahhs filled the room as Parts and pieces quickly started pulling themselves together to form Armin's body. "Ta-da!" Armin smiled popping back into one piece and holding his giant stuffed sheep."hello!"

"Oh my!" Miss Rial said dropping her clipboard in disbelief. Looks of utter shock and surprise were stuck on everyone's faces as they stared at Armin."oh my god that doll is talking!" Connie exclaimed pointing at Armin."well! Who is this little cutie?" Miss Rial asked pinching Armin's cheeks."meet my doll Armin!" Annie declared. "He's a really cool doll that can act just like a real boy"

"H-hello.." Armin blushed waving shyly to the class while sucking his pacifier."and this is my pet sheep larry!" The doll exclaimed holding up his plushie to see"it's very nice to meet you.." He female in the room got glossy eyed and blushed at the sight of the doll. Even Miss Rial looked like she was going to have a conniption over how adorable Armin was. The boys however, couldn't help but find the doll to be a little bit creepy.

"Cool!" Ymir exclaimed

"He's so pretty!" Christa squealed

"I want one! He's so cute!" Mina declared.

"Can he eat?!" Sasha asked.

"Uh huh! He loves food! Especially his baby bottle!" Annie replied looking up at her doll. "Isn't that right Àrmin?" Armin smiled and nodded cutely."uh huh! I love it when Annie feeds me my bottle! Especially before my bedtime" A loud string of "awwwwwsss" from the girlsrang throughout the classroom at this.

Jean, Reiner, and Bertholt however, rolled their eyes at this. "Man what a baby!" Jean snorted. "how old are you even supposed to be anyway?" He asked. Àrmin frowned and fidgeted nervously at Jean's remark. "I dunno..." he admitted looking down and clutching his sheep. "But Annie always calls me her little baby, her Mommy likes to call me a baby, I like my milky and blankey like a baby, and I like my rattle and pacifier like a baby, so I must be a baby!" He giggled hugging his sheep.

Reiner stuck out his tongue in disgust and silently stuck his finger in it while making loud gagging sounds causing Jean and Bert to snicker. "Reiner! Go stand in the corner for five minutes!" Miss Rial scolded pointing to the corner. Reiner grumpily got up and stood in the corner with a giant white dunce cap over his head making the rest of the class including Armin, giggle.

"Well Annie, your time is almost up, is there anything else Armin can do before we move on to the next person?" Miss Rial asked while petting Armin's hair. Armin purred affectionately as the teacher did this. Annie then smiled, scurried over to the coat hangers in back of the class and pulled out a shiny pink and white electric guitar with Hello kitty on the front.

Her dad had bought it for her last year for Christmas but she never really played with it much."I taught him a new trick yesterday!" She said trotting back over to her doll. Armin perked up once she brought it over to him. "Go ahead Armin! Just like how I taught you yesterday!" Annie smiled. "I-i dunno Annie.." Armin murmured nervously hugging his sheep. "Hey now ..don't be afraid" Annie said patting Armin's thigh."you're going to do great- trust me!"

Armin smiled feeling a bit more confident now."okay! I'll try it!" The boy said taking the guitar and putting the strap over his shoulder."get ready for your ears to bleed" Jean snickered. The class's jaws dropped when Armin started going ham on Annie's guitar. He was on his knees headbanging and everything like an actual metal head. Once he was finished, he stood up, smiled sweetly and took a bow, earning a very loud round of applause.

All of the girls in class jumped out of their assigned seats and rushed over to the giant doll squealing with hearts in their eyes asking him to be their boyfriend. Mikasa however stayed in her seat glaring at Armin in jealousy and then back over to her dog fluffy."now why can't you talk and play guitar like that?" She pouted.

Fluffy whined and whimperd in response at this.

"Can Armin sit with us Annie!?" Christa and Ymir asked tugging the poor doll's sleeve."No he's sitting with me!" Mina protested tugging his other hand."I wanna feed him candy!"Sasha said hugging his waist. Armin whimpered a bit at the bickering girls and looked over to Annie silently for help."now now girls, Armin can sit over there next to all of you" Miss Rial chuckled pointing to an empty window seat.

It was right behind Annie's seat, but also in front of Mina's. The desks next to theirs belonged to Christa, Sasha, and Ymir. Right in the middle with all the girls."that's alright with you two isn't it?" She asked Annie and Armin. Armin eagerly nodded in joy while Annie smiled in agreement. The boys watched in jealousy as Armin picked up Larry the sheep and happily waddled over to his desk.

Well ain't this some shit! The doll hasnt even been here that long and he's already getting popular with the girls!? He wasn't even a student here! Hell, he wasn't even HUMAN! "I'm not quite sure if i like that doll very much" Jean retorted whispering to Bertholt."Yeah who does that gay creepy doll think he is!?" Bert pouted in response.

"Thinking he's so cool just because he can put himself together and play guitar!" Jean sneered. "Oh come on he looks pretty cool to me" Marco sweatdropped."believe me Marco, that doll is a douchebag!" Reiner whispered walking back over to them."trust me i KNOW!" All of the boys, minus Marco silently sneered in disgust as Armin giggled and sat with the girls. You'd think they were all having a slumber party from how they were acting!

"I say we show that doll who's boss around here when the teacher leaves" Jean smirked. "Who's with me?" Reiner and Bertholt grinned mischeviously as they heard this."I'm in!" Reiner agreed."me too!" Bertholt said. The three guys then looked at Marco expectantly. "Come on guys, he seems nice!"Marco pouted.

"Jesus Marco don't be a weenie!" Jean scoffed."we're not going to hurt him we're just going to have a litte fun with him!" Reiner declared. "Yeah,So are you in? Or out?" Bert asked giving the small freckled Jesus an intimidating glare. Well..one little harmless prank wouldn't hurt right?

"O-okay, I'm in" the freckled boy said at last

"Eeexceeleeent" Jean purred smiling wickedly.

(A/N: oh boy, what does Jean got up his sleeve for Armin? We'll just have to see. See you next time on "Her Show And Tell!)
