The Head Cheerleader, who had stayed behind, contacted Bolger on her radio.
"Um... Your Frightful-ness."
"What is it?!" Bolger demanded.
"Why do you need Gymcutter anyway?"
"You fool! I need her because all the cheerleaders are imbeciles! I need her to tutor all of you so that we can maintain Blue Ribbon status!"
"Oh... Okay. Whatever."
Bolger sighed heavily in frustration.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the Angel Wall, the rebellion had gathered and was prepared to fight.
Vienna walked over to Chewkindy. "Um... I just want you to know that if anything should happen in this battle... You know what? Never mind." She said apathetically.
Seizing the moment, Chewkindy jumped on Vienna's back and growled softly into her ear an ardent promise of hope.
Hanna rolled her eyes at the scene. She sighed and turned towards the Queen.
"Look. I don't wanna get involved with the fighting. I've been on the verge of getting suspended for a while now, and this would give the faculty a final reason to do it." she said cautiously.
"I understand." the Queen said gingerly. She hoped to persuade Hanna to join the rebels. "Let me ask you, though. Would you ever consider joining the Black Ribbons? We could use someone with your experience."
Hanna shook her head. "Nah. Chewie and I have been bounty hunters since freshman year. We got a good thing going for us. Don't wanna ruin it now."
Chewkindy, who had rejoined Hanna, grunted in agreement
Anakina sighed. "Are you sure? We could really use you."
"Look, kid. My mind's made up. I'm not gonna be a part of the rebellion." She paused to think for a moment. "I've got other things to worry about."
"Gwar-rrr-oh-ah-er?"
Hanna looked at her companion and whispered the response. "I don't know if she's gonna be there. She's one of the faculty, but she might not help in the fighting. I don't know..." she trailed off. "We shouldn't risk it."
"Gree-ah-ooo-kag-rah!"
"Yea, I know it'll help them, but I'm still not sure about this... I don't know. I've got a bad feeling about this..."
The rebels had no time to listen to this conversation. By the time Hanna and Chewkindy had finished talking, the rebels had manned their desks and were preparing to fight.
Hanna turned to Chewkindy. "Well, we stayed. You happy?" Chewkindy nodded. "I'll be in the Penguin." She turned and went to sit in her desk.
Meanwhile, the rebels had approached the battlefield, where the cheerleader army was already waiting.
The two sides clashed, engaging in a ferocious battle.
After about an hour of fighting, a click was heard over the intercom, as the 1:15 Announcements commenced. Taking advantage of the opportunity that the confusion had caused, Anakina decided to try and destroy the Main Office once and for all.
She maneuvered her desk through the endless fields of cheerleaders and dove down the Executive Hallway. Darth Bolger had spotted her and followed closely on her tail.
Suddenly, out of nowhere, a laser blast was shot towards Bolger's desk. It hit at just the right angle, and she and her desk flew spiraling into Canada.
"You're clear to go, kid!" Hanna's voice came in clear over the radio.
"What? Oh, uh, thanks!" Anakina responded.
Anakina continued to fly down the hallway when she heard an eccentric, womanly voice in her head.
"Remove your glasses..." the voice urged. "Rely on your senses, two, three, four..." the voice faded out.
Somehow, the voice was comforting to Anakina. Calmly, she removed her glasses and placed them on the flat part of the desk.
"Anakina? You took off your glasses. Are you okay?" Queen Lizidala asked.
"Yea." Anakina answered. "I'm fine..."
She continued to fly towards the end of the hallway. Reaching the end, she dropped hydrochloric acid into a window in the Meditation Room, burning a hole into a side of the Main Office.
Anakina flew away triumphantly as the rebels broke into cheers and happy song.
After everyone had returned to Room 30, the celebration started.
Anakina jumped out of her desk to embrace Princess Gretchen and Queen Lizidala.
Hanna and Chewkindy brooded silently in the back while the festivities continued. Eventually, Anakina approached them.
"Thank you for saving me back there."
"No problem." Hanna answered.
"How did you do it? I didn't think the Penguin had lasers."
"It doesn't." Hanna responded. "We had it modified."
"How?"
"Kag-roh-ao-wah-roj-noah-ker-gah-wah-wah-oo-ee-rrr-grah-whee-kero-reh-reh-grah-gwa-kar-rog-oh-rah-whe." Chewkindy explained.
Anakina blinked. "Okay, Hanna. How?"
Hanna rolled her eyes. "A: You need to learn Kookie (Kindy-wookie). B: Commander Jana and Andr'a Binks rewired the Muffin Laser by replacing all the blueberries with chocolate chips. We attached it to the Penguin and came to help you."
As they talked, they walked outside of Room 30 to prepare to go to the new base.
"Oh, before I forget again," Anakina said, "Here are the Jeans Passes I owe you." She handed over the slips to Hanna. "Did you reconsider about joining the rebellion?"
Hanna laughed. "You guys can count me in as a Black Ribbon." she said, hopping into the Millennium Penguin.
Chewkindy growled happily in agreement.
"So, we'll see you at the new base?"
"We'll see you there!" Hanna said as the desk sped off down the hall to a new rebel base and a new year at the Academy of the Holy Angels.
Gree-agh-a-way... (TO BE CONTINUED...)
