I'm back! Okay, this chapter is a little filler, but you'll be learning a little more about the school. I'm hoping during summer I might be able to update faster, but I'll be traveling a bit, so no guarantees. And yay! They just announced the release date of Teen Beach 2! Okay, so I recommend the song: Ain't it fun: by Paramore. It's so cool! Now for my review responses:
Writer207: Yes, of course I had to add TBM. It'd be immoral if I didn't. Of course the boys would record the girls, and I'm just going to say, you probably won't be able to figure it out. That's just the honest truth. This is WEIRD.
swimmergirlshalom: I'm glad you liked it! Okay, I don't know if this'll become OOC once Teen Beach 2 comes out, but my plot is the wave that took Mack and Brady to Wet Side Story only comes once every forty years, so they have no idea how to get Leila and Tanner home. I cut out the disappearing and 'we never met' and all that stuff, so yes, very OOC. Sorry! But that's how it is!
DragoKing999: Cloud 9? No. Diggie will be mentioned, but he won't make an appearance. Thanks for reviewing!
TakeThePRNDL: No, Chase is more of an older-brother figure to Olive. She's still in love with Fletcher! Yeah, Jana got a lucky break. Let's see about that other couple. And no more movies! I'm not doing Zenon, sorry. Thanks for reviewing!
BeautifulSupernova: Thanks you! And I love Ravery too! It's so cute! Your right! I referenced that! XD! Thanks for the review!
PurpleNicole531: Yeah! It's finally time! Of course Chase would correct Zuri. Isn't that just like him? And yes, the guys would be totally in to volleyball chicks. Yay! Ravery! And yes the Chase/Olive moment was cute, but don't make the shipping mistake. I'm shipping FletcherxOlive for this. Chase is more like an older brother, who might just happen to make Fletcher jealous. Your moment has arrived! Here's your next, glad you liked this!
Glee Clue Rock 1251: Thanks! Glad you liked, here's your next!
skyline 10: Thanks for the review! No, I only mean DCOMs. But nice suggestion! If pirates come into play, I might consider Pirates of the Caribbean.
Thanks for all the reviews folks, and here's your chapter!
School master's POV:
The days passed tensely. There were so many things on people's minds, up no one felt like they could trust each other and voice their worries! KC, of course had her suspicions although she seemed pretty neutral, probably because she wasn't trying to make friends, and Austin and Leila were ignoring each other. Mack was annoyed at Brady for not telling her about his, "long lost brother," and Brady was insisting he didn't have one. On top of that, Ally had sided with Austin,and Mack had sided with Leila. Jana had become more nervous after her close encounter with Adam, and she and Rhydian were on the alert for everyone who came too close. Some of the girls found out about the "bikini photoshoot" incident, and now they weren't talking to certain boys. Like, it was mostly stuff like Skylar would talk to Oliver and Kaz since she already knew them, but would blatantly ignore Benny or Ethan or some other guys. Same went for the rest of the girls. In short, things weren't going according to plan. No, not at all.
They needed to get closer. I needed this to happen to pull off my grand scheme.
I noticed some friendships had been formed, if that's what you could call them. More like alliances. Those weird kids with the sixties clothes had band together with those dancers, and the blondes from Steven's Point. Probably because they all went through a traumatic event together. Other alliances were formed, but I noticed they would argue. If Austin had a stand in with Leila (I was surprised to find that when she was angry (which was admittedly rare) she could rebel impressively) the group would back her up. And then those brats raise by that nanny would back up Austin, along with those kids with the video diary backing up the Jessie kids! This was out of control, and at this rate I'd never be able to crush their-well, that was news for later.
What mattered now was finding a way to make them closer, but not too close. I needed to use them, not form a rebellion. No, definitely not. Wait! Maybe those incompetent teachers of mine could host one of those revolting team-building field trips. Heck, if it were up to me, I'd just toss one of them in a volcano and have the other rescue them for team-building, but that would come back to bite me in the butt later. No, I wouldn't go. No way would I watch a revolting display of teenage love and friendship. No, I'd assign those idiot teachers Abbey and Cody to chaperone, and demand they report back to me when the trip was finished. Yes. Perfect. I'd give the command-err-suggestion right now.
Earlier…
Skylar's POV: (I seriously needed to add this in)
It was certainly strange here, no denying that. Just to get that out of the way. It was so different from anywhere I'd ever been to, and technically I'd been all over the world-or should I say-worlds. The people were different too. At first I thought those weird kids from the plane crash came from another planet, too, but I eventually denied that. Either they came from some weird place (though I couldn't imagine where) or their heads were seriously up in the clouds.
Anyway, I was just coming back to the dorm after chatting with Oliver and Kaz, and I was greatly disturbed by what I saw. "Bree!" I screamed, "There's been a break-in! Someone trashed the dorm!"
"W-what?" Bree asked, coming out of the kitchen area.
"Look around!" I screamed. It was a huge mess! It looked like a hurricane had struck.
"I don't see the problem…" said Bree, "...seeing as though I made this happen."
"What?!" I shrieked. How was that even humanly possible-err-bionicly possible?!
"Yeah." said Bree.
"But I was only gone for an hour!" I cried.
"I don't see what the big deal is." said Bree.
"The big deal is," I said, "We're sharing this space. I can't live in this filth. I'm going to go get breakfast, and when I get back, I want this room to be clean. Use your superspeed, Bree! And do your share of the work! Seriously, I didn't think you could be such a huge slob!" I left, unbeknownst to me I probably insulted her with the word slob…
Thirty minutes later…
"I'm bac...what happened here?!" I screamed.
"You like?" asked Bree, gesturing to the literally half-clean room.
"Why didn't you clean this up?!" I screamed.
"Well," said Bree, "You told me to do my share of the work, and I figured my share was my side of the room. So I cleaned my side."
"But what about my side?!" I cried.
"That's your share of the work." said Bree, patting me on the shoulder, "Have fun cleaning with no bionics!"
I sighed, "I'll go get the vacuum…" I muttered, walking out of the room.
"You might want to make that a flamethrower!" screamed Bree, from our room.
KC's POV: (So, what did you think?)
Ugh, another day in Emma's Pink Paradise as she referred to our dorm. I went to get some breakfast, came back, and checked my phone.
"Hey, wake up." I said to Emma.
"Ugh, what time is it?" whined Emma.
"Seven o'clock." I muttered.
"Err, what is it?" asked Emma.
"There's a notice on my phone that says 'field trip.' Do you know anything about this?"
"Why would I?" groaned Emma.
I sighed. "Whatever." I need to learn about this.
"Hey, I've got to go." I said.
"Okay." said Emma, "Just don't wake me up again."
"Sure!" I said in a fake perky voice, then turned and rolled my eyes.
I walked down the hall, and stopped by the teacher's lounge. I froze, and pressed my ear against the door when I realized people were speaking in there.
"I hope he'll be rational, I really like these kids." said a voice I matched as Mrs. Jenson.
"Yeah, when we went on a field trip we almost, well…" the other voice trailed off. I knew that voice! That was… Mr. Martin! My math teacher! But what the heck was he talking about?
"Yeah." said Mrs. Jenson, "Wow that was so long ago. I mean…"
"We're not supposed to talk about it." said Mr. Martin, "Well, I'm going to meet up with Bailey. We're going to go on a date-I mean, have breakfast. Let's get those kids together soon."
"I'm happy for you guys." said Mrs. Jenson, in a supportive tone, "I can handle them. You go have fun."
Bailey? I thought, As in, the assistant math teacher?! They're together?! I nearly barfed. They were in the same room as each other all day and we were there, too. I would never be able to look at them the same way again. It was so...nasty!
Wait. I thought, He's seeing Miss. Pickett? That means...At that moment, the door slammed open, and Mr. Martin jumped upon seeing KC.
"K-KC." he said, recovering from shock, "W-what are you doing here? Um, how long have you been there?"
"Umm…" I said, trying to come up with a good excuse, "I...had a math question."
"You have all A's." said Mr. Martin, "What could you possibly need help with? In...any subject, really?"
"Umm…" I mumbled, "I...don't get...square roots."
"Really." he said, in a disbelieving tone, "We just went over square roots, and you got a one hundred percent on everything."
"W-well…" I said, "I...forgot how to do it?"
Mr. Martin sighed. "Fine. We'll go over it tomorrow. But how long have you been here? What've you heard?"
"N-nothing!" I said, a little too loudly, "I just heard about a field trip and wanted some information." Mr. Martin tried to hide his relief, but being the spy I was, I got it, clear as day.
"Oh." he said, "We're going into one of the surrounding jungles. Alert your friends. Mrs. Jenson will take care of the rest."
I nodded, and ran back towards my room, but no. I needed a place to think. The courtyard! I thought.
I went out, noticing the strange hedge-sculptures. They were of various Disney characters. I needed to go through my thoughts. Okay, so Mr. Martin made it sound like he and Mrs. Jenson went to this school. I had to wonder why they stayed.
I needed to know who they were, and how long they'd been here. Zeke and Luther hadn't seen anyone in years. Mr. Martin and Mrs. Jenson claim to have went to this school. The Ross kids claim that there are three copies of their nanny on this island. What's going on here? I wondered. For once, I had no clue. But no matter what, this was getting spooky. I had my suspicions at first, but now I knew there was something wrong with this school.
I felt a chill run down my spine. I would be here for a lot longer, but all I wanted was to go home. You can't. I thought, You're a spy. You have to handle this. I took a deep breath and walked back in.
I rounded a corner quickly, and bumped into two people. "Oof!" I cried, as I fell into one of them, and the other landed on me. "Get...off…" I groaned.
We started scrambling to stand up, and I almost screamed, before catching my breath. "Oh...Austin, Brady. What-what are you doing here?"
"Uhh…" said Austin.
"You can tell me." I said.
"Well…" said Brady, "He and Leila won't come near each other, and Mack's sided with Leila, and Ally's sided with Austin. You know how girl fights are. But we wanted to hang out. See if we have anything in common."
"Cool…" I said, "But why does Leila freak you out so badly?"
"Because." said Austin, "She's identical to another girl I knew, who was insane. She claims she doesn't know her but I beg to differ."
"Why does it matter?" I asked, "They aren't the same people."
"I don't know." said Austin, "It's just...they seem the same, but different. You know what I'm saying?"
"Yeah." I said, "I think I'm standing right in front of your answer."
Brady grinned. "Bye, KC!"
So let's see what we've got. Austin and Brady, Leila and some other girl, I'm not even going to try to go over all the...Jensons? What was wrong with this school!? Oh well, I'd have to figure that out later. Right now I had to spread the word.
"Hey, guys!" I cried.
"Yeah?" the responded.
"There's a field trip." I said, "Come with me. We have to alert everyone."
"Everyone?" asked Austin, suspiciously.
I rolled my eyes. "Yes, everyone."
Austin sighed. "Fine."
We walked down the hall, banging on all the dorm doors. "Everyone out!" I shouted.
"Open up!" yelled Austin, banging on a door.
The door opened. "What's going on...you." growled Mack.
"You." sneered Austin.
"Okay, I feel really uncomfortable." said Brady.
"You and me both." I said. "Wait! How can you tell the difference between Austin and Brady?!"
"Brady would never dress like that." snapped Mack.
"Oh, so you have a problem with the way I dress?" snapped Austin.
"Okay." I said, pushing them away from each other. "Maybe we shouldn't let you two be together." I had no idea that girl fights could get this big. I didn't have many girl friends.
Mack snorted and walked into her room to get Leila, since they were sharing a room.
I walked over to the next door, and banged on it. "Hey everyone out!" I shouted.
The door swung open, and Skylar stomped out, half covered in garbage. "Geez, Skylar." I said, "Haven't you ever heard of taking a show-"
"Don't. Say. It." snapped Skylar, interrupting me.
Bree walked out behind her, giggling hysterically. "Okay…" I said, "I'm going to assume you had something to do with this."
"Ha ha, yes." said Bree.
I rolled my eyes, but couldn't help but grin. It was pretty funny.
All together, we were able to wake everyone, thought the people Skylar woke up usually jumped back, because I didn't know where Bree had gotten it, but she certainly knew how to come across smelly garbage.
"How often does this happen?" I whispered to Bree.
"I learned to use it on the island." whispered Bree.
"Hmm." I said, "I'll remember to try that on Ernie."
"Look." whispered Bree.
Skylar knocked on a door. "Hey." said Dez.
Skylar rolled her eyes. "Aren't you going to jump back?"
"No." said Dez, "Why would I? You smell good."
Skylar looked surprised. 'You don't...notice anything?"
"Hmm…" said Dez, "Are those new shoes?"
Skylar began to walk backwards slowly with her hand out in front of her. Bree stared in shock. Well...now I learned something new about Dez.
"Seriously though, Bree." I said, "Tensions are already running high. This might not've been a good move."
"But it feels so right." said Bree.
"...okay." I said, "Remind me not to get on your bad side."
Bree went over to knock on her brother's door, when she heard, "Give me back my calculator!"
"I'd give it to you, but you're too short to get it!"
Bree rolled her eyes. 'Open up, dip wads!" she screamed.
It took a while, but Chase came out with a calculator covered in peanut butter stuck to his forehead. Bree pointed, but Chase just said, "Don't ask."
"O-okay." said Bree, 'You guys have got to come out."
"Okay." said Chase. Then he noticed Skylar knock on the door across from his. "Bree, what did you do?"
"Funny, right?" said Bree.
"Bree." said Chase, "Come on. Skylar was there for you when you were hurt."
"But she called me a slob!" whined Bree.
Chase and Adam, who'd just arrived, looked at each other, and said, "YOU ARE A SLOB!"
"But she didn't need to say it…" whined Bree.
Chase rolled his eyes. "Really Bree?"
"Fine." said Bree, "I'll apologize."
"Hey, Skylar." said Bree.
"You've made your point." said Skylar, "You don't need to rub it in."
"No." said Bree, "I took it too far."
"You think?" snapped Skylar.
"Okay, I deserved that." said Bree, "But you were there for me, and I shouldn't have humiliated you. It was wrong."
Skylar sighed. "It's okay. I should've been nicer. We could've cleaned up together."
"Friends?" asked Bree.
"Friends." said Skylar. She reached out to hug Bree, but Bree pulled back.
"Uh, maybe when you're cleaner." said Bree.
Skylar smiled. "Right. This is all your fault, you know?" But she was smiling.
At that moment, Jana ran over and said, "Is that raw meat?"
Skylar picked a piece off her boot. "More like rotting meat. Why?"
"Can I have it?" asked Jana.
"WHY?" asked Skylar, in disgust.
Jana rolled her eyes and shrugged, "Why not."
"Go." whispered Bree.
Jana put her hands up in defense. "Fine. I get it."
I sighed in relief. Sometimes friends had big arguments, but they always made up. I sighed, sadly this time, and looked at my phone. I hadn't called Marissa since I arrived. I had to wonder if she was still mad I left for a year. I felt tears prick at the sides of my eyes. I wiped them away, angrily. If it was true, that friends could come together and be closer than ever after a fight, I wanted that to happen for me and Marissa. And the rest of Disney High's student body, I realized as I looked around and saw everyone was out of their rooms. They were all separated from each other!
"Okay, guys." I said, "We're going on a field trip, and Cody asked me to help Mrs. Jenson out. Umm...some of you might want to get ready." I tried not to look at Skylar. Oliver already looked concerned, and Kaz was practically bursting with laughter.
"I can't believe I didn't think of that." I heard Kaz mumble. I rolled my eyes. Boys were so immature.
"We're going into the jungle," I continued, "So...wear jungle stuff."
Everyone nodded, though they looked kind of confused. It seemed like the girls were maybe a little on edge, but they seemed to have forgiven the boys about the...photoshoot incident. Thanks God. One more item off my plate. Yes, I considered myself a kind of mediator for the kids here.
Half an hour later, everyone was ready. Leila was wearing a beige and pink leather jacket with a pink bandana around her neck, Emma was wearing bedazzled jungle clothes, and Skylar had doused herself in perfume. Yeah, we were (somewhat) ready.
"Hey Mrs. Jenson." I said, leading the group over to the school's exit.
"What's this?" asked Mrs. Jenson, in a kind of happy surprise.
"We-well I-decided to cover things for you." I said.
"I was right." said Mrs. Jenson, "You are good kids. I bet you'll all become great friends."
The feuding kids looked at each other angrily. Actually, now that I'd solved the other issues, it was just Austin, Leila, Mack, Brady, and Ally. Though Brady pretty much just looked uncomfortable. I REALLY hoped this wouldn't escalate.
"Okay everyone!" cried Mrs. Jenson, cheerfully. "Let's go!"
Maddie's POV:
Okay, so maybe I was into athletic situations, but this was ridiculous. We were tramping through seemingly uncharted jungle! I'd head Lindey ask why we were here of all places, and Mrs. Jenson had just grumbled, 'don't ask me ask your principal.'
Anyway, everyone seemed a little wary. This wasn't happy-go-lucky, Lion King style jungle. This was dark, damp, and spooky uncharted rainforest.
Everyone's clothes were soon caked in mud, and the girls' hair was plastered against their faces. Liv, Emma, Jasmine, and Cece were complaining nonstop, Jana got a weird look in her eyes every time she saw a jungle animal, Leila's motorcycle boots were...destroyed, Adam was plowing through the underbrush like an ox, and the Nerd Herd was blabbing about the scientific names for species they saw. Yeah, they were probably the only ones amused by the trip. Me, I'd rather have been playing volleyball or jet skiing or basically doing anything else. Mrs. Jenson looked angry too, for some reason.
The jungle seemed to be closing in on us. The trees grew closer together, the rocks got larger, the vines more plentiful. Soon, we had to walk one person at a time because we couldn't all fit beside each other!
"Can we go now? Can we go now? Can we go now?" whined Chloe and Zuri over and over again. I was about ready to rip my ears off.
"For the ten millionth time, NO!" snapped Mrs. Jenson. Something was really eating at her. She rarely yelled at us.
"I hate having to walk." groaned Bree, "I can't even see the end of the path!"
"That's because of the wildlife species residing here, consisting of…" droned Olive.
Everyone moaned as Olive blabbed on. Again, Chase was probably the only one who understood her nonsense.
"Guys, do you hear that?" asked Chase, suddenly. Ahh yes. Bionic hearing.
"No." said everyone. Well, almost everyone.
Jana and Rhydian cupped their hands around their ears, as though they were trying to hear something. Suddenly, Jana screamed, "Duck!"
We all dropped down, as a tiger pounced from the bushes. Almost everyone screamed, the only silent person being KC. She seemed to be used to surprises.
"It's going to eat us!" screamed Logan, "We have to do something!"
"This is probably the first time I agree with Logan." said Lindey.
The tiger rounded on us, and growled loudly. "Come on, we can take it!" I shouted.
Teddy turned on me. "Are you crazy!?"
"She's right!" shouted China, "We have bionic teens on our side. We can take them!"
"Yeah!" cried Avery, "Go Adam, Bree, and Chase!"
What no one expected was a team to come forward. I stepped forward beside Adam, Bree, and Chase because of my athletic ability, and beside me was KC, Skylar, Jana, Rhydian, Sara, and Benny.
In a shocking act, Jana sprang onto the tiger's back, and bit down hard on its scruff. Everyone turned in shock, unable to tell why the tiger was writhing in pain. Her teeth weren't sharp enough to cause harm...right?
"Jana!" screamed Shannon, "Be careful!" But Jana didn't seem to be paying attention. She bit harder and began to tumble over the tiger, who was trying to scratch at her. Finally, he placed a good swipe at her side, causing her to cry out and fling off of the tiger, into a tree.
"Jana!" screamed Rhydian, running over to help her.
While Rhydian was distracted, the tiger leapt at Bree, and was almost on her when Skylar rammed into the tiger's side. The tiger yelped, and Skylar pulled Bree aside. Adam, then, pounced on the tiger, and used his bionic strength to hit it. He didn't hit his hardest, though, because he didn't want to kill it.
The tiger's hip bone cracked, but that didn't stop it. It seemed to be smart, because it decided to avoid the group who'd decided to fight it, and instead turned to the others. A few stood strong, like Mack, Maya, Shannon, Tom, China, Lindey, Ally, and Gabe, but everyone else cowered behind the few brave ones. They all knew they couldn't defeat a tiger.
The tiger bunched up its muscles, and sprang. It was flying straight at Leila! She covered her face with her arms, in a weak attempt at defense, and closed her eyes.
Right when everyone thought the tiger would, you know, tear her open, Austin jumped in front of Leila, and punched the tiger in the side as hard as he could. He wasn't as strong as the tiger, but he did manage to fling it off.
"You saved my life." said Leila, "Even after how I've treated you!"
"Meh," said Austin, "I started it by not welcoming you. You're pretty tough."
Leila smiled, "Thanks. Friends?"
"Friends." said Austin, grinning too.
"Aww, you two made up." said Rocky, "But if you don't notice, WE'RE BEING ATTACKED BY A TIGER!"
"Oh, right." said Austin.
Leila groaned, "Why don't we just skip this scene."
"What?!" asked Rocky.
"Oh yeah!" said Leila, "It doesn't work like that here!"
Rocky and Austin exchanged a look, and Rocky made the cuckoo sign. "Uh, whatever you say, Leila." said Rocky.
Anyway, when the tiger was flung away, I ran at it. KC was right at my side, and she smiled and winked at me. I think that was the first time I'd ever seen her look friendly. I jumped up, and KC jumped over the tiger's back. I kicked its side, and she kicked its back. The tiger went flying at our combined strengths, right at Skylar, who, with the help of Adam, used a vine to tie its leg to a palm tree.
"By my calculations," said Olive, "That vine will give in a few minutes. We have to get out of here!" Wow, that was the first time Olive said something we all understood.
"Follow me!" cried Mrs. Jenson, "Let Zuri and Chloe go to the front!" We ran for our lives out of the jungle, into the school, and into our dorms. We all would need time to recover from shock and injuries. I heard Jana was in the nurse's office for serious blood loss. That scratch was worst than it looked. I was thankful my sister and I didn't get hurt, but I couldn't imagine how Shannon, Rhydian, and Tom would be feeling. I'd make sure I went by the nurse's office to thank Jana for distracting and fighting the tiger.
Nobody's POV:
"What were you thinking!?" cried Mrs. Jenson, storming in angrily, "You didn't tell me there was tigers in the jungle!"
"Calm down Abby." growled the headmaster, "No matter what happened, it got the job done. They came together in crisis. And...you know how I love my students to get along." It was a total lie, of course, but he'd have to lie to Mrs. Jenson.
Mrs. Jenson clenched her teeth, "They could've been killed!" she hissed.
"So?" said the headmaster, "I don't care if they were rescuing each other from volcanoes! They're together now, and that's what matters. Now I suggest you mind your place, and show some respect.
Mrs. Jenson's nails dug into her palms. "You won't hurt them." she growled.
"Of course not." said the headmaster. "I'm not hurting them in any way, shape, or form." At least, for now.
How was it? Sorry my update was late! I wanted to get this done a week ago, but I've got lots of end-of-the-school-year homework. Oh well, it's up now! I know it wasn't my greatest, but I made Bree/Skylar comedy, KC discoveries, variation between shows, tension, and clues about the headmaster, so I'm satisfied with my work. PLEASE check out my story Revenge! It'll be good, I promise! Okay, if that's all, bye!
