Change of My Life

Chapter 3: Reunion

"Hey Punch, nice try" I said. "Aw, goddamnit" she said. "How's it been?" I asked. "Things are a little hectic since you left, but it's all good" she said.

"What do you mean?" I asked. "Slasher is getting more and more upset each day and he almost killed a bully for insulting you leaving" she explained.

"Oh shit" I said. "Can I talk to him?". "Sure, hold on" she said. There was a slight pause, and then Slash answered. "Hello?" he said. "Hey Slasher!" I said

enthusiastically. "Andrew!" he cried. "Heard you almost killed someone" I said. "He deserved it, nobody makes fun of you and gets away with it!" he said with anger. Slasher looks like Stitch, except he, like me, has midnight black fur, dark blue eyes, torn ears and a white line across his left eye. He has shiny silver claws which are very sharp. He usually wears a black t-shirt, blue cargo pants and white sneakers. "You laying off of Net Ex?" I asked. Net Ex is a special piece of equipment that when hooked up to, you can access and live anything. I use it to re-live the American Revolution, while Slasher plays the Bombing of Europe scenario. "Not really" he said. I laughed. "At least I managed to do okay" I said. "I use it to be with you!" he shouted. "Wait, what?" I blurted out. "I can't live without you so I use it so that the computer can make a copy of you to keep me company" he cried. I can tell he was close to crying. "Okay calm down, I'll talk to Cobra and see if he can bring you here to stay with me" I assured him. "O-okay, I'll wait" he said.

I hung up. I immediately dialed Cobra's number. "Hello" he said. "Cobra, Slasher, my friend, is having a hard time without me, and I want to bring him here" I said pretty quickly. "Alright, I'll fund him the money required" Cobra said. "Thanks Cobra" I said. He hung up. Man of a few words I thought. I called Slasher back. "H-hello?" he answered. He was sobbing, badly. "Hey it's me, Cobra's going to send you the money" I informed him. "Thank you so much!" he yelled.

"Andrew!" Slash called. "Slasher!" I called back. We both ran to each other and hugged. Slasher was sobbing on my shirt. "Andrew, I thought I would never see you again…" he sobbed. "Don't worry I'm here just calm down" I comforted him. I led him on the dirt path that led to the guest house. "That's pretty big" he commented. We entered in and Slasher was, like, out of it. He went crazy, bouncing everywhere, checking out rooms and my stuff. He was nuts. After ten to twenty minutes of bouncing, I helped him get settled in. Then we listened to Poison, Dethklok and a Guns N' Roses album he brought. He also brought the Net Ex equipment. We both decided to do the Battle of Britain scenario. I chose the Nazi's, he chose the British. I shot him down like, I don't know, a billion times. My team won after bombing London, then we went to Lexington, or Shot heard 'round the world scenario. I chose the Americans, he chose the British. I won, again. My callsign was The Winter Prince, his was Nightman. We took a break and talked what happened. Mostly boring stuff. "Andrew, Slasher dinner!" Nani called. We both decided to race each other. He won. He may suck at Net Ex, but he was the king of racing. "Oh, who's this Andrew?" Pleakley asked. "My best friend, Slasher" I said. "Oh great, another monster!" he whined. "Hey, I'm no monster!" Slasher defended himself. He showed his claws.
"Oh sorry he he" Pleakley quickly said. "Calm down you two!" Nani interrupted. "Good thinking, if Pleakley kept going, he would be in pieces" I added. Everybody came in. "Oh hi, I'm Lilo" she said. "Hey, I'm Slasher" he said. "Nice name" Stitch complimented. "And you're Stitch, right?" Slasher said. "Ih" he said. Slasher looked puzzled. "That means yes in Kweltikwan" I whispered. We all ate, luckily Nani cooked, and it was better then Pleakley's. Bonnie, Clyde and Sparky came, and Belle. "Hey sweet cheeks" I flirted with her. Belle giggled. "You're dating her?" Slasher asked. "Yeah" I said. "Aw man" he said. I always get what Slasher wants first. "Slasher, this is Bonnie, Clyde, Sparky and Belle" Nani introduced. "Guys, this is Slasher, Andrew's best friend from Albany". "Hey" they said. "Hi" Slasher said. After dinner, we went outside and did tag. I was the longest to not be it. So, I won. Don't worry, we didn't use our powers. Then Sparky had to go to work, Bonnie and Clyde got tired, and Slasher wants to play his Gibson X-plorer he brought. So, me and Belle were alone. "So, want to do something?" I asked. She chuckled. "What do you have in mind?" she said. "Something naughty" I flirted. "Oh, bring it on doggy" she said.

I walked into the guest house carefully to make sure the coast is clear. "Come on in, it's clear" I said. Me and Belle walked in and came into my room. "Want to do this again?" I asked. "First with the kissing, then that" she said. We both sat down on the bed and kissed deeply. Soon, we went wild and made-out like no tomorrow. Then we went really wild and got under the sheets. Last thing I knew, me and Belle were cuddling, naked, panting and sweating. We then fell asleep together.

"I told you he was going to do it!" I woke up. Bonnie and Clyde were at the door. "Hey!" I shouted. I forgot about Belle, because she woke up. "Hey, what are you two doing here!?" she yelled. Bonnie and Clyde ran for it. I got up to chase them, but realized I was still naked. "Forget it" I said. Me and Belle got dressed for school, grabbed our stuff and headed to the bus. We received cards telling what bus route we are on when we headed home yesterday. We waited at the humid and hot day. Slasher came walking. "Hey Slasher!" I said. "Yo, this the bus stop?" he asked. "Yeah" I said. Sparky and Leroy came. Sparky came wearing a white t-shirt, black jeans and blue sneakers. Leroy wore gray t-shirt, blue shorts and black sneakers. Belle decided to wear a blue t-shirt, longer blue shorts, and red sandals. I wore the same black Abercrombie jacket, but wearing a black t-shirt, tan jeans and white sneakers. "Hey Andrew, have you heard?" Sparky said. "Heard what?" I said. "Albany finally got snow!" he replied. "Damnit!" I said. Slasher laughed. "You always want to have fun in the snow" he said. "Hey remember that I am the prince of winter" I said. "Then where's the winter to prove it?" Leroy asked. "Shut up" I said. He laughed. The bus came. We all got on and resumed our conversation. "So, I was thinking when are you and Belle going to get intimate?" Slasher asked. I looked at Belle and she met my gaze. "Soon" I said. "Maybe during the first vacation" she said. "Hope it doesn't get to wild" Sparky said. We then moved on to video games, what's going on after-school and whether we did our homework. Sparky didn't have time to work on it. Belle finished it before we played and me, well, I just plain forgot. The bus then arrived at the school. I led Slasher to the office to get his Body card and locker info. We then went to the counselor's office to get his schedule. We both had two classes together: GYM, MUSIC. "Slasher, be careful of the math teacher Mrs. H, she's a real handful" I warned him. "Got it" he said. I put my stuff away and went over to Slasher's locker which was: 223. I helped him input the combination and we went to the cafeteria to get breakfast. I took Frosted Flakes and milk, while he got chocolate milk and a cinnamon roll. We decided to sit down at an empty table and talk what happened. I told him that our music teacher, Ms. Wakachini, is letting us bring our instruments to practice or learn. "Alright, I needed to get some practice when I was staying at your Aunt Jeline's house". Punch and Slasher live with my Aunt down in East Albany. Even I don't know how she found them. But I remember first meeting them during my Grandma's Christmas party. "Yo, you listening?" Slasher asked. He also has a bit of a grammar problem. "Oh, what?" I asked. "I said, how is Mrs. H a handful?" he repeated. "She's really strict, but we are lucky it was the first day of school" I said. "Oh boy, I'm in trouble" he said. Slasher doesn't really like teachers like Mrs. H, but he managed to get through without trouble. I usually find him daydreaming during long talks from teachers. And he usually doesn't do his homework, "I don't feel like it" he would say. Sparky, Belle, Bonnie and Clyde sat down. I glared at Bonnie and Clyde. "Hey sorry, she forced me" Clyde said. "I'm sorry too, guess I overreacted a bit" she said. "Good that wasn't respectful" I said. The bell rang and we headed to our lockers, got our stuff and headed to our class. I made some kind of perfume in chemistry, while Sparky made some kind of potion. This, by accident, made the teacher bald. The class howled with laughter. The teacher gave Sparky detention. "Damnit" he said. He was lucky the teacher walked away instantly. Next we went to music and I helped Slasher learn to read and write musical notes. Then me and him jammed with our guitars. His X-plorer was an alpine white finish. My Squire Stratocaster has a sort of a cherry color finish which glittered in an angle. We jammed so hard we actually rock! The teacher gave us an A for the awesome show. Again, I found Belle at her locker, getting ready for science. I walked over to her seductively and said "Hey baby, free tonight?". "Oh yeah doggy" she said. I have no idea where she came up with that. Probably because she heard my Tim Allen dog bark thing. We walked in and sat down. "Alright class I created an assigned seat chart so please wait at the counter" Mr. Kawakini said. We all got up and waited at the counter Mr. Kawakini pointed to. Me and Belle got a little naughty and squeezed our no-no's. I have to admit, I felt pretty good about that and so does she. "Andrew, Belle" Mr. Kawakini said. We thought we got in trouble but realized he called out our spots. We sat at our spots, which was at the corner by the windows. Me and Belle started again. "Andrew, Belle pay attention!" the teacher said. "Sorry" we said. Everyone snickered. That was uncalled for I thought. "Alright, now if everyone did their homework, raise it up" the teacher said. Everybody but me, and Sparky raised it. The teacher tsked "I'm disappointed in you three". Sparky slumped his head and I just sat there, spacing out, again. "Earth to Andrew!" he said. "Ding dong?" I said. Everybody thought it was a riot and howled with laughter. "Alright, you get a detention for being a class clown" he scolded. "Oops" I said. We got a lesson in learning velocity and speed comparisons. The bell rang and we left. Belle and Sparky was still laughing. "Oh my god, that's the Andrew I know!" Sparky said. Belle had to go to Earth History, so me and Sparky went to Math. Mrs. H was being her strict self again. I learned a necessary amount of the lesson so I started spacing out again. "Andrew!" Mrs. H said. "Winky?" I said. Everybody laughed. Strangely, Mrs. H didn't punish me, instead, she laughed and let me off the hook, and, she was less strict. After a while, we arrived at gym. I changed into my PE clothes which was a gray sleeveless shirt, black shorts and white Adidas X Trainers. Slasher came out wearing a blue t-shirt, yellow shorts and black sneakers. Sparky came wearing a white muscle shirt, black sweats and white sneakers. "Alright get into position" the teacher said. Boy was he huge. He was like, I don't know, ten feet tall? And he was very muscular, looked like a whale and was wearing a black muscle shirt, blue jeans and black sneakers. "My name is Mr. Jackson" he said. "Today we will begin by doing jumping jacks twenty five times" he said. Everybody groaned but obeyed. After we were done we were exhausted a bit. "Now for a treat as a welcome" he said. "We will be doing regular dodgeball". Everybody cheered. We lined up got split in half to each sides. Me and Slasher were on one side while Sparky and Bonnie, Clyde and Belle were on the other. Luckily, Slasher's claws were retractable, so we were able to play. I did better then I did back at my old school. Not to mention I had pretty good reflexes. When gym was over, we got dressed in our usual clothes and headed to our lockers to go home. Before I walked out, Jumba called me over. "Big boy I have great news!" he said. "What?" I said. "School has fundraising enough money to have a new class and I want you to decide!" he said. Oh sweet! "Hey I have a good idea!" I said. "How about getting Earth History filled with Net Ex?". "Hmmm that is good idea!" he said. "We will begin next week" he said as he left. I ran to my bus which, thankfully, hasn't left yet. "Yo Andrew, where were you?" Slasher asked. "Dude check this, Jumba is going to fill Earth History… with Net Ex!" I said. "No freaking way!" he said. "Yeah, he's going to start the class next week" I said. "Awesome!" he replied. "Hey, what's awesome?" Belle asked, who just sat next to me. "Jumba's going to have a class next week with Net Ex!" he answered. "No way, I always wanted to try those out!" she said. "Didn't Slasher tell you?" I asked. "Tell what?" she said. "He brought those when he moved in" I said. "Oh! You are mean!" she said, with a playful punch in the shoulder. He laughed. "Sorry! I forgot" he said. "I'll show you how it works" I offered. "Oh thanks… buchie-boo" she said. I blushed. "Ah well d-d doh" I babbled like an idiot. That was smooth. She laughed. "So, what do you think they will teach us with Net Ex?" Sparky asked. "I think stuff that was important like the crusades or something" I guessed. Our bus stopped at our stop and we got off. "Hey guys better day in school?" Nani asked when we got inside the house. "Yeah and Jumba's going to put in Net Ex!" I said. "Wow I want to try those out" she said. "I brought some in the guest house but wait until Andrew finishes teaching his buchie-boo" Slasher teased. "Shut up" I said. I ran to him and grappled him. Then I gave him the dreaded noogie. "Quit that!" he pleaded. I just laughed. "Alright, alright break it up" Nani said. Bonnie and Clyde went upstairs to their rooms, Sparky went to the lighthouse and me and Slasher went to the guest house. We both dropped our backpacks near the door and collapsed on the couch. "Jeez rough day" I said. "Yeah" he replied. Belle walked in. "Hey, ready for my lesson?" she asked. "Yeah" I replied. We both sat on silver chairs and attached our visors. I selected an easy one. Battle of Midway. After about ten minutes or something we got out. "You are mean!" she said. Yeah, I left her alone a few times. We both played the Americans. "Sorry" I shrugged. "Want me to make it up?". "My way" she said with a grin. We both held each other and kissed. "Ewwwww" Slasher said. "Why you little…" I said as I chased him. He laughed and he hid in his room, locked. "You are so lucky!" I said as I pounded the door. "Hey Andrew, Sparky called" Belle said. "Oh thanks" I said as I picked up the phone.
