Skool: Bored into excitement (pt 1)

Cten looked at the red plaid skirt that came with her Middle Skool uniform. "Wow, that's short." Cten glared at Zena. "You have to wear one too." Char walked out of the closet, fully dressed. Red plaid skirt, black stockings coming about two inches above her knees, a black shirt, black combat boots that came up just below her knees, and a red plaid tie. Cten and Zena stared. "Just start cutting yourself, shy don't ya!" Zena burst our laughing and Cten grunted, choking down her laughs. "It's the uniform, we have to wear it." Cten and Zena froze. "You mean..." Char nodded. Zena started freaking out and Cten stepped back from Char to get a better look. "Now that I look at it, it looks cute. It would look cuter if you didn't have chicken legs." "Hey, at least I'm prettier!" "How?" "You may be just a bit too tall." "I'm just as tall as you!" "Nope, taller by an inch." Zena walked into the room, fully dressed. "We missed the bus." Char and Cten looked at Zena. "What?!?!" they screamed, simultaneously. Chat sat on her pink fluffy bed. "Great, the first day of Middle Skool and we're going to be late. Why didn't the boys tell us?" "Because they're jerks." Cten wriggled into her black t-shirt. "Calm down, we can use our bikes!" Char looked at Cten like she was crazy. "Bikes? What bikes? We don't have any bikes!" "Let's just say the neighbors had bikes, we have bikes."

Char's bike fell over on top of her once again, silvery-pink handle pom-poms flying in the air. Cten rushed pas her on her midnight purple bike, doing a wheelie. Zena rode by on a small red trike. Char blew some hair out of her face, just to have it fall back. Cten turned around and stopped in front of Char. "You might want to pull down your skirt, pink undies!" Char gasped and blushed.

Cten, Zena, and Char pocked their bikes to the bike rack. Another bike pulled up beside Cten. "Hey." Cten looked up to see a girl with short brown hair, pink eyes, and... Green skin? "You're Irken too, huh? I got here on earth yesterday. You must be the Irkens I was supposed to meet before my Voot got sent off course! I'm Alyssamre, but you can call me Sam. Cuz Alyssamre." Cten looked at her. "You must be Cten, the first Irken Princess to be exiled to another planet!" she walked over to Char. "You must be Char, the most wanted Irken in the universe!" she moved on to Zena, who was waiting to see what she was famous for. "You must be Zena!" "And..." "Eh, just Zena." "DAMMIT!"

Mae and Tae walked to the bulletin board. "I'm scared." "Be strong, Mae, just be strong." A path cleared through the crowd. Mae grasped Tae's hand. "Be brave, Tae." "Be strong, Mae." They walked closer to the board. Mae looked at Tae. "Oh, crap." They said simultaneously. "Tae, we've never been apart in our lives!" "Like I said, Mae. Be strong." Ali walked up to the board. "What the hell?!?! No way I'm being in Ms. Bitter's class! She's the worst, meanest, CRUELEST..." Her shadow formed onto Ms. Bitters, she growled at Ali. "Meep..."

Cten and Char walked up to the lockers. "Well, at least we all have the same locker area. Hey, Char. What do you have first period?" "Keyboarding, Ms. Key." "Oh, I got reading, Ms. Ruiz. Second?" "Language arts, Ms. Caster." "Me too, 3rd?" "Math, Ms. Song." "Me too, we better go." "Good luck, Cten. Don't die in your sleep" "What?" "I don't know?" "Creepy, 6:00!" Char turned around to see Sam come up behind her. "HI guys! Which one of you has reading with Ms. Ruiz?" Cten pointed to Char who ran down the hall past a teacher who yelled at her. "Hey! NO running in the halls!' Cten looked at Sam. "Uh... you better go. Don't wanna be late on the first day of Skool!" "We still have 4 minutes!" "I SAID GO!" Sam walked off. "Why is she so damn HAPPY?!?!" The tardy bell rang. "Four minutes my ass, that was 40 seconds..."

"We're gonna die! First, I'm with Ms. Bitters, now I'm with Ali!"

Char and Nemo were having a conversation while Sam was stalking them. Char stopped Nemo by holdin her arm out. "Why did we..." "Sh." She whispered to Nemo. "When I say go, run to Ms. Ruiz's room." "But I..." "GO!" Char and Nemo broke into a run.
