Hey readers! It's me, Abtash Cipher, your favorite character from Disney Academy! I will be doing today's chapter, filled with insanity and fourth-wall breaking! I'm pretty much the Deadpool of this whole story, I guess. Oh yeah! And don't worry about our dear author now! She's...well...she's-
"GET ME OUT OF HERE!" cried the familiar voice of Journal Sketch, who was trying to fight for her position as the narrator of the story.
Hehe, that's nothing to worry about, folks, that's just...um...technical issues or something.
So! Where were we? Ah, yes, that's right! I was just about to get to the best part! Yay! I'm grabbing some popcorn!
Now that the Friendship Gulag had been officially formed, we were ready to be best buddies and have fun together! Lori is the brainiac that knew everything (especially on Norse mythology junk), Evelyn is the intimidating gamer that is not afraid to fight, Natalia is the positive one that cheers us up-hey wait! That's my job! And Amy is the awkward leader. I, of course, am also the lady's man, seeing as 1: I'm the sexiest man alive, and 2: I'm kind of the only man in the group. Out of all of the chicks, though, I couldn't help but find Natalia to be the most attractive. I mean come on! With her flawless brunette hair, smile, and that fabulous dress made out of...I don't know, some kind of flower or something.
However, much to my disappointment, she didn't (and still doesn't) give in to my attractiveness! She even made a five feet distance limit between us! But that's okay, I mean, there are plenty of other fish in the sea, right? Yeah...
So, a couple months passed, and it was almost Thanksgiving break. We were sitting in our assigned seats in Magic Class, waiting for our teacher Miss Flora to arrive. The seating is paired off into groups of two desks sitting next to each other. The person I sit next to is actually Shooting Star, or Mabel Pines, from the same show me and Amy come from. Amy sits next to her twin brother, Dipper, but they hardly ever talk to each other. On the other hand, Shooting Star and I are best buddies! Okay, well, we became best buddies once she understood that I'm not really evil and all that.
"What are you going to do over Thanksgiving, Abtash?" she asked me.
"Our family doesn't celebrate Thanksgiving." I shrugged.
"WHAT?! That's just bedonkulous!" she gasped.
"I know right! I've always wanted to have a nice Thanksgiving dinner at a table, with so much food that your clothes don't fit the next day." I licked my lips at the thought of all that gravy.
"Well, you and Amy are always welcome to come home with me and Dipper over for Thanksgiving!" Shooting Star invited.
"Awesome sauce! Maybe we can get my sister to actually socialize!"
"Same with my brother!"
"FIST BUMP!" Our fists ran into one another's, and we both threw out a ton of glitter.
"Hello, students!" Miss Flora said in a sweet yet lively old woman voice. "Welcome to today's lesson for Magic!"
"When do we get to test on our fellow classmates?" I shouted out. The whole class burst into laughter. Miss Flora gave me a stern look and I smiled.
"As some of you may know, every Disney character has his or her very own special unique magical ability. Some of you were born with them, but others have to find and develop them. With my help, you are going to find out what your ability is, and if you already have it, you are going to make it grow!"
I looked around. Besides Lori, nobody in the classroom was paying any attention. I laid back and started flickering through some people's minds. Fun stuff there.
"And now I will assign you your partners for the group project."
"Wait, WHAT?!" Amy looked like she was going to die. Socializing one-on-one with somebody that she isn't really friends with isn't her strong suit. Everybody else began to groan. I, however, was completely fine, I mean, new friends, right?
"Each of you will be working with the person sitting next to you in this class, and work on a research project for the Magic Fair! You can do it on whatever kind of magic you want to, and it will be due near the end of February!" Miss Flora grinned.
"Magic Fair?" Mabel grinned.
"We're going to make the awesomest project ever!" I waved my arms. Me and Mabel did another glitter fist-bump.
"Can you please stop throwing glitter all over me and being annoying little pests?" Lanie asked rudely.
"I don't think that's scientifically possible, Lanie." I grinned.
Lanie groaned. She was being paired with Evelyn, and practically everybody knows that those two hate each other's guts out.
"We're doing our project on fairy godmother magic, Evie." Lanie told Evelyn.
"First off, don't call me Evie, and second off, we should do the project on ice magic."
"No, we're doing whatever I say we're doing!" she snapped in her harsh sassy voice.
I then looked over at Lori and Natalia, who were also being paired together.
"Okay Nat," Lori told her friend, "we only have a couple months to do this, so we need to work hard and stay focused. Got it?"
"Absolutely!" Nat smiled. "Why, focused is my middle-Oo! A caterpillar!"
I then turned over to Amy and Dipper, who were being partnered together. Personally, I don't think that Pine Tree trusts my sister because of my dad. They were just sitting there, occasionally giving glances of doubt and mistrust in one another.
"This is going to be entertaining."
A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER ON THE DAY OF THANKSGIVING
Ah, Thanksgiving. You're sitting outside, watching a family have fun together in a nice(ish) shack, feeling resent for them and wishing that you had parents that loved you. The rain is pouring down on you so hard to the point where you're shivering to the bone, soaking wet. You're tired, and so very, very hungry, while you smell the pleasant aroma of a feast. Yep, that's some quality Thanksgiving time right there!
"Ab-t-t-tash?" Amy shivered.
"Y-y-yeah Am-m-my?"
"What are we d-d-doing out here again-n-n?"
Suddenly, the door to the Mystery Shack opens. It was Dipper and Mabel Pines.
"Hey guys!" Mabel said. "What are you doing out here?"
"Nothin' much, just enjoying the beautiful scenery." I looked up and pretended to be enjoying myself. Mabel laughed.
"You guys wanna come in?" Mabel invited.
"Mabel! They're Bill's kids!" Dipper warned.
"Come on, Dipper. These guys don't even really have a family besides each other." Mabel said.
"But Mabel!"
Nonetheless, Amy and I got to have a real Thanksgiving, with what felt like a real family for the first time.
FLASHBACK!
"And now for the child ranking!" Bill announced. He literally had favorites when it came to his 618 kids. Of course, on the top of the list as always, was Amy.
"Amy! My little demon lollipop! You little devil you!" Bill gave the little Amy a noogie. In her demon form, she looked almost identical to her father, except the only differences was that she was smaller, had eyelashes on the upper eyelid, and instead of a top hat, she wore a big black bow. All of a sudden, there was a loud crash. Little Abtash (who once again looked almost just like Bill, except he didn't have any eyelashes and no top hat) floated in happily, holding a huge cobra.
"I found this snake in the forest! I named him Streamer, because he hung up in the trees like a giant party streamer!"
Bill looked sternly at Abtash.
"ABTASH! WHAT DID YOU DO THIS TIME?!"
"It wasn't my fault that the castle set on fire! Arendelle was about to freeze anyways!"
"So in the middle of a magical winter, the kingdom just happened to erupt into flames?"
"Well I-" the little demon stammered.
"You know that we can't have all of Disney turn their attention on our family! Next thing you know, our plans will be ruined!"
"Sorry dad." Abtash looked down sadly.
"You better be! For the next five years, you're grounded from all contact with reality!" For demons, five years was actually a pretty short amount of time.
Abtash angriliy floated away in a huff, with Amy following after him.
"Nice job screwing it up again Abtash." said Judy, one of Bill's other kids. As Abtash flew away to his own room in the mindscape, more siblings gave him a hard time.
"You're such an idiot, Abtash."
"Can't you ever do anything right?" In case you haven't noticed, most of the Cipher family isn't really nice-especially to Amy and Abtash. As Abtash slammed his door, Amy tried to go in to reassure her brother. But her brothers and sisters stopped her.
"Now hold it, little miss perfect." Judy said. "I think it's time that you learn a lesson." The Cipher children all gathered around Amy in a huge circle. Judy curled her hand into a fist, and hurled it towards Amy's face. Suddenly everything went black.
BACK IN THE PRESENT...
"What was that?" Dipper asked.
"Oops." I said. I had accidentally shown Dipper and Mabel a flashback!
"Our past." Amy said quietly.
"I'm...sorry." Dipper said.
"Sorry for what?"
"Not trusting you guys. It's just that me and Mabel have had a lot of crazy things happen and-"
"It's okay, Dipper." Amy reassured. "I'm not really great with trusting others either. I mean, I barely even have the guts to talk!"
"Me too!"
"Who's up for dinner dudes?" Soos pulled out a ginormous turkey that he made himself (because heaven forbid Stan cooks it).
"WOOHOO!"
That day, me and Amy were thankful for our friends, our lives, and most of all, our new family.
Happy Thanksgiving everybody, with best wishes from your buddy Abtash! Oh yeah! And Journal wants to give a special thanks to her cousin Will for helping her with editing and all that jazz!
