A/N: Still Don't own IZ or The Nigtmare Before Christmas. Sadly.
Alexis's P.O.V.
As I did my morning routine on Monday morning, I thought about school. What'll all the other students think about my scars? What'll they think about my robotic left arm? What'll they think about Alex and his robotic left arm?
Nancy, Blade, and Ness walked with Alex and me to school, and then left when we got to the entrance. Alex and I said goodbye to our disguised S.I.R. units (Ness's hologram is a black cat) and slowly entered the large building.
Alex and I got our schedules and we saw we had the exact same classes. I said with a smile, "At least I don't have to leave your side today Alex."
Alex smiled weakly at me and I said, "What's wrong bro?"
"I'm worried I won't make any friends," Alex said quietly.
I smiled at him and laughed. He looked at me and I said, "Bro, you're awesome! Of course you're going to make some friends!"
Alex smiled and nodded at me. He said, "Thanks Alexis. You're too sweet."
"How sweet?" I asked.
"Like Irken sugar," Alex said lowering his voice a little when he said, 'Irken'.
I chuckled and then a guy a little taller than Alex and me walked over to us. He said, "Hey, um, I think I met you on Halloween. You were the one with the white cat?"
I smiled and told him, "Oh yeah! I'm Alexis. This is my younger brother Alex."
Russell's P.O.V.
As I walked to the school with Mom, who had to put on make-up to make her look human, I felt really nervous about my first day of school. "Are you okay Russell? Have everything you need for all your classes?" Mom asked.
I smiled at her and nodded. "Good," She said with a smile. She opened the door to the school and walked with me to the principal's office, and then we talked to the principal for a few minutes. After a few minutes of talking, the principal handed me my schedule, and I walked out of the office. As I headed to first block, Geography, I saw a girl with three scars over her eyes and a robotic arm. She was chuckling at the guy, who also had a missing left arm, standing next to her. I recognized her as the girl from Halloween. I walked over to her slowly and I said, "Hey, um, I think I met you on Halloween. You were the one with the white cat?"
She smiled at me and said, "Oh yeah! I'm Alexis. This is my-," Please don't say boyfriend, please, don't say boyfriend! "Brother Alex," She told me.
I sighed in relief, but not loud enough for her or her brother to hear it. I said, "I'm Russell. Russell Skellington."
"Skellington?" Alex asked, "I know I've heard that somewhere."
"Maybe you'll think of it later," Alexis told her brother.
"You're right sis. Come on, let's go to class," Alex told her.
"Who do you have?" I asked them.
"Ms. Bugs," Alex and Alexis said in unison.
"I hear she's evil," A random kid said.
"I hear she beats kids," Another student said.
"She can't be worse than Ms. Bitters," Alexis said with a shrug.
"Who?" I asked.
"She was my old elementary skool teacher," Alexis told me.
"Don't you mean school?" I asked her.
"Yeah, school. That. My bad," Alexis told me shaking her head.
"Well, I have Ms. Bugs too. Want to walk to class together?" I asked them.
Alexis smiled warmly and said, "That would be great! Come on!"
She rushed away to class and Alex said, "We're twins. She's older than me, and has always been a little smarter. Even so, we both love each other more than we love our dad."
We started to walk to class and I asked, "Why do you love each other more than you love your dad? I love my dad."
"Well, our dad doesn't really care for us much. Our dad ordered me to kill Alexis, but I couldn't do it," Alex told me. Whoa. Their dad actually ordered Alex to kill Alexis? Harsh.
"Why?" I asked.
"He thinks she's obsolete. Broken. Wrong. Not fit to live," Alex said sadly, "We don't really care for him much. But we do love our mother a lot. I'm sorry I'm telling you all this. I just needed to get it all out."
"No, it's okay. But if I may ask, how did your sister get those three scars, and how did you two loose your left arms?" I asked.
Alex stopped in mid-step and became angry with me. "Don't ever ask me that again! That is personal stuff between me and Alexis!" Then he stormed off to the classroom.
I muttered, "I'm an idiot. I should never have asked him that."
I walked to class and saw Alexis and Alex had already taken their seats. Alexis smiled at me and Alex looked…sad?
I walked over to him and said, "I'm sorry for asking about that, I should never have-,"
"No, no. It's my fault for getting mad like that," Alex said interrupting me, "And I'm sorry. I shouldn't have gotten mad. It was just a little curiosity from you. No big deal. Do you forgive me?"
Then, I heard a slap come from the teacher's desk. I saw a woman with ghostly white skin, black hair, and icy blue eyes staring back at us. "Sit down!" She exclaimed.
I gulped and ran to my seat.
Alexis's P.O.V.
"Sit down!" I heard the teacher yell after she had roughly slapped a ruler to her desk. I could already tell she was crewel to the students, and she does beat students. I narrowed my eyebrows at her and she said to Alex, "What are you looking at? Hold out your hands."
"What? Why?" Alex asked.
"Just do it!" Ms. Bugs exclaimed. Alex held out his hands on the desk and Ms. Bugs brought the ruler down on his palms. Alex cried out in pain and fell to the ground. "Get up!" Ms. Bugs shouted kicking him in the ribs.
I got to my feet and walked over to her. I narrowed my eyebrows at her and said, "That is no way to treat someone! Even a kid who is younger than you!"
"Well, you can't do anything about that!" Ms. Bugs said.
I narrowed my eyes at her and said, "I may not be able to, but I know who can. I'm getting the principal."
I walked out of the room, and when I told the principal about what Ms. Bugs did to Alex, he looked terrified. He said he was scared of Ms. Bugs, and that he couldn't do anything about it. I walked back to the classroom and saw Ms. Bugs had removed Alex's PAK. He couldn't live more than ten minutes without it. How long was I gone? I checked the clock and saw I had been gone almost nine minutes. Alex only had another minute to live. I grabbed Alex's Pak from Ms. Bugs and broke the circle that surrounded Alex. I saw Alex was stupid, most likely from having his PAK off, and he said, "Hey sister! What that? My PAK? I don't need it! I fine without it!"
"Alex, you're getting stupider by the second, and you're dying without your Pak," I told him.
"No need!" Alex told me. I growled at him and flipped him over. I attached his PAK to his spine and he instantly became smarter. I said, "You okay Bro?"
Alex nodded and said, "Yeah. Thanks Alexis."
I nodded and Ms. Bugs said, "Sit down you brats!"
"Brats? Brats? You're the brat! You kicked my brother, hurt him, and you almost killed him by taking off the thing that he needs to live!" I yelled at her, my face turning red from anger.
"Ooo," A few kids said.
"You can hurt and bully me, fine. But mess with my little brother, and you won't see tomorrow. Do you get it?" I asked in anger.
Ms. Bugs glared at me. I looked at her for a few seconds and then sat in my seat. "That's what I thought," Ms. Bugs said.
Everyone else in the class sat in their seats and Alex leaned over and whispered, "Thanks for trying to stand up to me."
I smiled at him and said, "That's what big sisters are for."
