Chapter 7: The Second Day; Second Block

"It's just Algebra I, how bad could it be?" I heard someone behind me whisper. It was blue hedgehog with spiky hair, and he seemed a little tense.

"It will be alright Sonic," his two-tailed fox friend assured him.

"Easy for you to say, Tails! You have the brains of the group."

"Yep!" Tails flashed a toothy grin.

I chuckled lightly as I decided to snoop in on Michael and see what he was doing. Of course I could see him drawing, but why should I complain about it if he was so good at it? I wasn't, but my talent... Erm, I had no idea what my talent was honestly. Not really caring, I stepped quietly to see what he was drawing (He detested watching eyes on him when he drew): It was in the shape of a person, skinny with a white skirt, green hair, red eyes, a radiating smile...

I was going to crack up. "Is that Kirlia?" He was so shocked and freaked out.

"You idiot," he yelled. By some unknown force of nature, his bone grew twice in length. He then proceeded to hit me so hard with it that, had I not been somewhat prepared for it, it would of knocked me out cold almost instantly.

It did not mean it didn't hurt like all chaos rained down from the sky. I had to keep back my manly tears from falling by sheer force of will.

"ATTENTION CLASS," our math teacher, R.O.B., called out. Clearly, the event that happened prior did not interest him in the slightest. "AS IT MAY BE VERY UNFORTUNATE FOR YOU ALL, THERE WILL BE A PRESENTATION IN THE AUDITORIUM TODAY SO PACK YOUR BELONGINGS AND HEAD THERE PLEASE. DO NOT FORGET THAT WILL BE WORKING HARDER TOMORROW." The class giddily packed up their belongings and literally ran out the classroom; R.O.B just shook his head. "CHILDREN... ALWAYS WANT TO GET OUT OF MATH CLASS AS SOON AS THEY CAN."


Out and about inside the hallway, the other freshman classes were filing out the room so I assumed this was a freshman only type of deal.

"What do you suppose it is?" Yorkie asked me.

"Beats me, but why would ask that if you were one of the very first to bolt out the room? You seem pretty excited to leave."

"Heck yes I am! Math is not exactly one of my favorite things in the world."

"I agree. I like math up to the point where I need it."

The two of us finally entered the massive building that probably was one-fourth of the school itself. This place may as well be big enough to fit... 1, 2, 3... This place would definitely fit more than 10 people.

"So where to?" I began to ask Yorkie, until I caught sight of a green Pokemon and a white tiger with a scorpion's tail, or better known as Sheri and Ace.

"Hi Sheri and Ace," I said as Yorkie and I searched for a seat nearby them.

"Yorkie! Chris," Sheri greeted us with a big smile.

"Hey guys," Ace greeted. "Over here, there is an open seat right next to Sheri."

Well that solved Yorkie's problem, but what about mine? I guess the three empty seats in front of them would do, I would just have to turn my body at least 135 degrees to make eye contact with either Ace or Yorkie and a full 180 degrees to face Sheri. As our math teacher would of been proud of me for using some kind of math in a random situation like this, it still felt like unnecessary work. My thoughts drifted somewhere else soon enough. Where was Michael? As I surveyed the area, I could finally make out that he was with none other than his official girlfriend, Kirlia, and... Two news faces I had never seen before: Two Pokemon by the names of Nuzleaf and Rhydon. He seemed happy nonetheless, so I didn't worry too much.

"So what do you think this is all about?" Ace inquired.

"Beats me," Yorkie admitted. "But it sure beats math class by a long shot."

"And it definitely defeats History class," Sheri added. "I don't like the teacher very much."

"Who's the teacher?" I asked.

Before Sheri could give me an answer, our attention was diverted to a scene elsewhere. "Attention all freshman," our principal, Toadsworth, called out on a podium with a microphone attached to it on the stage. "Please find a seat so we can get started, thank you." The sea of walking freshman soon disassembled to bits and pieces until soon most of the entire freshman student body were finally seated.

"Thank you all, now I would like to begin by welcoming you to our school." And the crowd goes wild.

"First of all this is the freshman orientation, in which we will..."

I pretty much zoned out by this point and decided to see what the others were doing. Yorkie was 'paying very much attention to the principal,' in which I mean by spacing out. Sheri was doing a good job playing her Nintendo DS and hiding it behind me so nobody can see her. Pretty clever if you ask me. Ace was listening to his Ipod - most likely "Guilty Gear OS." Not really a surprise. Since everyone looked semi-busy, I decided to join the club and slowly sink my head into my shell and hopefully allow sleep to take me over...

"And now I would like to present the feature presentation!"

Cool, a movie was about to be played! But I figured sleep was more important to me right now, so again I slowly sunk my head into my shell to sleep peacefully. Once more, something distracted me to my right, which I mean by someone seated themselves.

Curiosity told me to check with one eye to see who it was, then I used both eyes to confirm, then I checked my heart - which was beating more faster - to finalize m answer. My pulse rate increased, my heart rate increased, and I was becoming warmer. I was looking straight at Zeena. She gave me the most gorgeous smile, and I could not help but almost jump out of my shell due to increasing tension. I, however, did smile the best I could to make sure I did not look like some idiot. At least she bought it though. I hope...

Then a disturbance came to my left. Curiosity, again, told me to check with one eye to see who it was, then I used both eyes to confirm, then I checked my heart - which was beating more faster again - to finalize my answer. For a second time, my pulse rate increased, my heart rate increased, and I was becoming warmer. I was looking straight at Wonder. She gave me the cutest smile, and I could not help but almost fall right out of my shell. I was, however, able to cover it up with the best smile I could muster and not look like a fool.

Gosh, I never felt this tense since the time I almost failed my Spanish exam back in middle school.

The good thing about sitting in between two girls I have major crushes on is that the tension grows on you, it was definitely still there but it becomes bearable. It felt good to have normal, decent conversations with them, but not when my hands felt like they were sweating, or when I accidentally touch Wonder's hand, or when I wanted to rest my head on my hand with my elbow firmly on the armrest and then I totally miss my hand and laid my head comfortably on Zeena's shoulders. If there was ever a time for an epic fail moment, this would be the time.

It absolutely did not help when your three buddies behind you were encouraging the whole situation with their chuckles that they were really failing to cover up.

Besides my endless embarrassment and problems, it seemed like the hour long movie was finally over and it looks like our class president, whose name is Peach Toadstool (The granddaughter of Toadsworth), had something to say.

"Good morning everybody." As soon as she said that the crowd began to clap and two students, one in red with a matching red cap and a rather big Dragon Koopa, actually jumped for joy. "Before we all head for lunch, I would like to make an announcement about the election tomorrow. We will hold elections and vote for the freshman student council. The entire freshman population must vote for a student council, voting for a vice president, a treasurer, and etc. Tomorrow during your third block, all freshmen will receive a poll and a list of nominees to vote for. So please think about who to vote for and... Class of 2013 is the best!" Peach finished her speech and I swear the whole auditorium went up in a huge uproar; my ears went deaf momentarily. I could tell she was going to get the popular vote for the class president easily. I was actually quite curious who were going to run, certainly not me though.

Luckily, I didn't have to listen too long to mindless roaring of the entire freshman population as the bell for lunch rung. Even as I got up, stretched, looked at Wonder and quickly turned my head away to avoid her seeing my blush, then facing Zeena and acted like I was looking somewhere else to hide my blush, trying not to look at Sheri or Yorkie's sly face, and chuckling at Ace's determined expression, the one thing that stayed glued to my mind: Will I ever get an easy day?


I think now you all are able to start reviewing regularly now that I surpassed the amount ReSchooled had. Ciao for now! :P
