Congratulations to roxygoth for guessing the sources of Percy's siblings' names! I'm not revealing them here, so as to keep the mystery up.

April

Mr. DePuh hung up the phone and turned to his son and niece. "Looks like school's out for the day for you two," he reported. "Someone was messing with the electrics, and they can't figure out how to get the power back on. And they found graffiti glorifying Toontown School near that room, so one more problem to deal with."

A sleepy Peggy yawned, nodded, and stood up, mumbling, "I'm going back to bed." Winnie, on the other hand, was curious. Graffiti about Toontown? Maybe he could figure out who had performed the mean-spirited prank, since he had a friend at Toontown.

"Do you mind if I get on the computer?" Winnie asked his dad. "I'd like to contact some friends."

Mr. DePuh nodded as he picked up his newspaper. Winnie wiped the honey from his mouth onto his arm and stood up. Soon he was logged on to the computer that was shared by the family. Technology was pretty confusing to Winnie, but recently Percy had taught him how to IM. This was how he was going to contact Mickey.

hunnylover24: Mickey? Did you hear about what happened at Ashdown?

Winnie only had to wait a minute or so before a message from Mickey popped up.

SteamboatW: No, what happened?

hunnylover24: Someone was messing with the electric stuff over there. Apparently they found graffiti nearby about Toontown. School got canceled :)

SteamboatW: Wtf?! Literally the same thing happened at Toontown, except the graffiti was for Ashdown!

hunnylover24: You gotta be kidding!

SteamboatW: Saw it myself. "Tigrs Rool" and that kind of thing.

hunnylover24: so... Beavers couldn't have pulled the trick at Ashdown...?

SteamboatW: And I guess the Tigers didn't do that to our school. I'll pull in some of the kids from other schools.

Another couple of minutes passed. Winnie found himself absentmindedly drumming his fingers on the keyboard and humming a random tune when unfamiliar usernames appeared on his screen.

Lionroar93: Got your invite, what's the issue?

littlevoice: I already heard the news, so sorry.

Star2Rite: Mickey, my man!

hunnylover24: Sorry, who are these? I only have Mickey on my contacts.

SteamboatW: Oh, sorry. This is for all: hunnylover is Winnie DePuh (Ashdown), Lionroar is Simba King (Pride), littlevoice is Jiminy Crickster (7th Hill), and Star2Rite is Peter Pan (Hero Valley Academy).

littlevoice: That makes only four of the six DUSD schools, what about Palace and Cherna?

SteamboatW: Minnie's on the phone with Cindy Perrault, from Palace. I think she's calling a pal from Cherna next.

Lionroar93: WILL SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHAT IS GOING ON?!

Star2Rite: Yeesh, Simba, take a chill pill!

hunnylover24: Someone pulled a nasty prank on both Ashdown and Toontown. Something about the electrical stuff and graffiti.

littlevoice: Yep, happened at 7th Hill, too. My freind Tink said she saw Pete do it.

Star2Rite: I am gonna KILL her! I was nowhere near your school!

hunnylover24: Little harsh?

Star2Rite: Jk, I just won't talk to her for a week ;) No news about that at my school.

Lionroar93: Wait, if your school didn't get sabotaged, how are you IMing?

littlevoice: Peter, you didn't play hooky again, did you?

Star2Rite: I'm at computer class! Duh ;P

hunnylover24: You guys have computer class? Lucky!

SteamboatW: Sorry I disappeared, Pluto wouldn't stop barking. Woah, 3 out of 6 DU schools pranked?

Lionroar93: Make that 4, one wall of Pride is now covered with 7th Hill hoopla. The one next to a sabotaged electrics room...

littlevoice: Now that is a little unnerving.

SteamboatW: This just in: Palace got it too!

Star2Rite: Sounds like something's going on...

hunnylover24: Cherna. It had to be Cherna.

Lionroar93: You sure?

hunnylover24: Think about it: there are six schools in the district. Only district schools got pranked today, if we go on Peter's word. And none of our schools were the instigators. Plus this sounds like just the kind of thing Demons would do.

littlevoice: *facepalms* Why didn't I think of that?!

Star2Rite: SO OBVIOUS once you put it like that!

SteamboatW: Yep, Cherna was not pranked! I'll have my dad give the superintendent a call. Thanks, Win!

hunnylover24: Glad I could help. ;) See you round!

*hunnylover24 has left the conversation*

"I wouldn't be surprised if every one of those kids is expelled," Peggy told Winnie over lunch.

Winnie shook his head. "I didn't want them expelled, I just wanted to help."

Peggy replied, "Well, you sure did it. You can be pretty smart when you want to be, Win."

"Have you seen my grades lately, Peggy?"

"I said when you want to be, fluffhead," Peggy snickered.

"Oh, stop..." Winnie couldn't help laughing himself, though.
