Time Warp: Chapter 5-School Days: Detention
*****
Logan found himself walking with Hallie down the hallways towards the detention room after school ended and they were finally allowed to leave Principal Kelly's office.
"Hey Logan!"
Logan stopped and turned around to see Rogue coming from behind them. "Hey kid." he grumbled.
As Rogue got closer she took in Logan's ragged appearance. She furrowed her brows, noticing the girl next to him looked similar with grass stains and ripped clothes. "What happened to you?"
Logan stuffed his hands in his pockets. "Long story." he said gruffly.
Hallie smiled, trying to hide her laugh.
Logan hid his own grin and gestured toward the shorter girl by his side. "This is Hallie."
Rogue nodded. "Yeh, you came here last week right?" she drawled.
"Yep." Hallie nudged Logan. "Hey Rocky, we should probably get ta detention before we end up gettin' another one."
'Rocky?' Rogue thought to herself, obviously not making the connection. She stared back at Logan who was going down the hall with Hallie. "You got detention?"
"Yeh, all next week too." Logan called back. "Ya better get a ride with Scott or Jean unless ya plan on stayin' after school with us!"
"Okay, well I guess I better get ta the parkin' lot an' make sure someone's still here. See-ya!" Rogue waved at him and began running down the hall to catch a ride.

As Hallie and Logan strolled into the room marked, 'DETENTION', they were met with angry stares from the teacher on duty, and Duncan, who they would unfortunately be sharing the same detention with all next week.
"Okay slackers, have a seat!" the chubby man with a bad comb-over behind the desk in front of the classroom drawled, gesturing towards the empty desks.
"Well, this is gonna be fun." Hallie whispered to Logan sarcastically. She sighed and made her way to the back of the room near a window where she dumped her backpack and sat down.
Logan grunted at the fat teacher who kept glaring at them, following Hallie to the back of the room and flopping down at the desk beside hers. Luckily Duncan was on the other side of the room. 'Too bad he couldn't be out the window an' in a dumpster though.' Logan thought with a smirk.
Hallie sighed, reclining in her chair and staring out the open window. It was beautiful out and they were stuck in this cramped little room for two hours. She looked around with a raised eyebrow, wondering why no one else besides the three of them had detention today. "Guess we're just the lucky ones." she mumbled out loud to herself.
"You in the back, no talking!" the chubby man barked angrily, then leaned back in his chair and took a sip of his coffee that was on the desk. "I ain't a babysitter, and I don't wanna be here any more'n you do, so you best behave and we'll all get through these two hours fine." he sneered.
Hallie sighed, rolling her eyes and gazing back out the window.

After the first half hour in detention, Hallie noticed that the teacher had fallen asleep. He was leaning back in his chair with his head back and his big mouth open with a little drool dripping out. Hallie made a disgusted face, then leaned toward Logan and nudged his arm. "Hey, you wanna get outta here?"
Logan raised an eyebrow, then glanced at Hallie. "Yeh, but we got an hour an' a half left."
Hallie grinned devilishly and pointed to the teacher. "He's sleeping, we can sneak out the window easy. By the time he wakes up, detention woulda been over and we would be gone anyways."
Logan let out a short laugh. "I got a feelin' you've done this before."
Hallie nodded with a grin. "I've had enough detentions since I got here ta figure it out."
Logan jerked a thumb towards Duncan with a grunt. "What about him?"
"If he gets outta here too, he won't tell on us." Hallie noticed that Logan looked unsure, so Hallie called Duncan, not even afraid of waking the snoozing teacher. "Hey Dunc!"
The boy turned and glared at her. "What do *you* want?"
Hallie gestured toward the window. "You wanna get outta here?"
Duncan stared at her skeptically. "How?"
"We're gonna sneak out the window, you in?"
Duncan sighed and nodded. He didn't want anything to do with these two, but if he stayed for detention he'd be late for football practice and wouldn't be allowed to play in the game this upcoming weekend.
Logan just shrugged. "Alright, let's get the hell outta this dump."
Hallie picked up her backpack, then cranked the window open wider and easily slipped out, followed by Logan and Duncan.
"Boy was that a dumb move puttin' detention on the first floor." Hallie mumbled to herself with a laugh when they were in the clear as she shouldered her backpack.
