"Wow. It's been a long day, and now we are down to our last period, which is the worst subject ever. Which, in my opinion is U.S. History." said Allison.
"What's so bad about that class?" asked Syrus.
"First of all, the teacher is Mr. Magid, one of the oldest teachers in the school, and second, I'm failing this class. If I do fail after the end of this year, I won't be able to graduate."
"Oh, come on. I'm sure it's not so bad." said Jaden as he went in the classroom. "Ooh, nice classroom."
"Yeah, the classroom decorations are the only thing that's good around here." said Ashley as she took her seat by the window. Allison took her seat in front of her. Everyone else took a seat and waited for class to start.
"Today we are going to learn about George Washington and the Revolutionary War." said Mr. Magid.
"So, any ideas on how to get out of this, Bastion?" asked Chumley.
"Not that I can think of. U.S. History is probably not of my best subjects." said Bastion.
"Oh, so you can ace through Chemistry and Algebra without a problem, and you're so bad at U.S. History?" asked Allison.
"I didn't say that. I just said that it's not my best subject."
"Then that makes two of us. Well, at least I know a little bit of the Revolutionary War."
"From where? The Magic Tree House series?" asked Ashley.
"Yes. They're my favorite series of books. And probably the only books I ever read."
"Wow. That's pretty neat." said Syrus.
"And now for your homework. Read pages 174-178 and work on page 178, which is due tomorrow." said Mr. Magid.
"Yay." said Allison sarcastically as she started to get out her book and started to work on her assignment. Everyone else did the same, until the bell rang, which meant it was time to go home.
"Yes! School is finally over!" said Ashley as she ran out of the school.
"I know. Hey, girls, thanks for taking us to your school and introducing us to your friends and teachers." said Alexis.
"You're welcome, Alexis. We should do this again." said Allison. Everyone followed Ashley out of the school and waited for the bus to arrive. When the bus did arrive, everyone got on.
"So, what homework do we all have to work on?" asked Syrus.
"I got mine all done." said Allison.
"From every class?" Allison nodded. "I don't believe you." said Zane.
"She's a fast worker, Zane." said Ashley.
"I guess that makes sense."
"I still got that poem in English to work on." said Syrus.
"I do, too. And I still have to work on that study guide for Math." said Alexis.
"It's called Algebra, Alexis." said Jaden.
"I don't care. What homework do you still have to work on, Jay?"
"Me? Well, I got that Chemistry homework left. And that study guide for Algebra. And that homework for U.S. History."
"Wow. That's almost everything, Jaden. But don't worry. You guys don't have to go to school for another 3 days." said Ashley.
"So, tomorrow we get to do babysitting with your mom, and Friday is when we go back to the police department with your dad. And on Monday, we go back to school with you 2, right?" asked Chumley.
"That pretty much sums up your guys' schedule." said Allison.
"Hey, I just noticed something. Easter is this Sunday. And that means Spring Break is next week." said Allison.
"So, what is Spring Break exactly?" asked Syrus.
"It's this one week in spring where you have no school. Seriously, Syrus, you have never heard of Spring Break?" asked Ashley.
"Uh, no."
"There's no Spring Break at Duel Academy?" asked Allison.
"No."
"Well, Spring Break is something you'll never forget. And Easter is going to be awesome. Easter is my second-favorite holiday ever."
"Really? What's the first?" asked Dimitri.
"Christmas."
"I love Christmas, too." said Jaden.
"Trust me, guys. You'll have a lot of fun this Spring Break." said Ashley.
