"School Days"
Chapter Six
"OH NO!!!!! I'M LATE!!! LAAAAAATE!!!!!" Mina screamed as she ran through the street on her way to school. She'd overslept again! Now she was going to get detention again! She absolutely could not believe her luck. She got to school, ran through the hallways, and burst into class.
"You're late again Miss Mongoose," said their new teacher Mr. Farquad.
"I'm sorry Mr. Farquad," Mina apologized.
"Detention after school tomorrow," he said simply, turning back to the chalkboard.
"Damn him," Mina swore under her breath as she took her seat.
"Alarm didn' go off again?" Bunnie asked.
"Right in one," Mina grumbled. "I don't get it. I think I need to get my alarm clock fixed."
There was a knock on the door. Mr. Farquad smiled and looked up. "Come on in," he said cheerfully. "Class we have a new student."
Whispers filled the classroom immediately.
"Who is this gonna be?"
"Wonder if it's a guy or girl?"
"Wonder if she's single?"
"Wonder if he's single?"
At a harsh look from Mr. Farquad, the class shut up. He then turned to the student, who was still out in the hallway, and motioned that student inside. She was about average height, had reddish-brown hair, and was wearing nothing but a blue vest and a pair of blue boots.
"Sally!" Sonic yelped.
"Sonic!" Sally replied in just as surprised a tone.
"Um, well, yes, this is Princess Sally Acorn," Mr. Farquad said. "She and Prince Elias have decided to join us at this school."
"Prince Elias is here too?" Mina thought.
"Hmm, now, where can we put you? Oh, there that seat right behind Ms Rabbot."
Sally sat down behind Bunnie, who immediately turned around and said, "Ah gotta know, what brought about this pleasant change Sal?"
"Well, Elias decided that we were living too much like prince and princess, and I happened to agree with him," Sally explained. "We wanted to be able to see more of our friends and get to know other kids our own age, so we thought that going to public school was a good idea."
"Ahem," came the teacher's voice. "I know that you're the princess and all, but as long as you're in school, you will follow the rules just like everyone else. No talking during the lesson." He turned around again and continued his lecture while writing more notes.
Sally flipped him off and muttered under her breath, "Asshole."
Sonic snickered. "Two minutes and you're already a true high schooler."

"Ugh. This is supposed to be food?" Elias complained as he and Rotor sat down to lunch later.
"More or less," Rotor answered, wrinkling his nose. "This is why most people bring their own food."
"I can see that," Elias agreed, tentatively poking his "chicken parmesan."
"Hey guys!" Sonic called.
Rotor and Elias looked up. Sally, Sonic, Tails, Bunnie, and Mina coming towards them. They all sat down and, looking at their lunches, said at the exact same time, "Wish I'd brought my lunch," after which they laughed.
"How're ya doin' in school?" Bunnie asked.
Elias's head hit the table. "I'm already starting to miss private lessons," he grumped.
Mina looked at Rotor, who was shaking his head. E looked up and said, "He's in my class. You know, the one with the ogre, Ms. Trebly."
"Oh, no wonder," Mina remarked.
"From the second I sat down, she was on my case," Elias complained. "She seems to think that I think I'm better than everyone since I just happen to be the prince. I didn't even do anything to imply that. I just raised my hand to answer a question she asked and it was like, `You put your hand down your Royalness! I'm not having you show off in my class just because you're one of the royal family! If you want attention like that, go back to private lessons!' I had to bite my tongue, literally, to keep from responding."
"Good lord, that's what your teacher's like?" Sally exclaimed.
"She substituted for our class once and believe me, once was way past more than enough!" Sonic said.
"No foolin'," Bunnie agreed. "She's a nightmare! Ah hope Ah ain't in her class when Ah get older."
"Whoa, it sounds like she's a Mobian Robuttnick," Tails commented.
"She is," Rotor said. "Or, she might as well be."
"Sheesh! And to top this pleasant conversation off, we all have to eat the delectable school lunch," Mina groaned.
"Yeah," Elias replied. "This is turning out to be one sucky first day of school for me."
"Just be glad you're not in Mrs. Appleby's class," Tails said as he scooped up a forkful of what was supposed to be mashed potatoes. (A/n: Then, why was the crud brown?)
* * *
"Not exactly what you expected is it?" Sally asked Elias as they headed home from school.
"Not at all," Elias said. He sighed. "Well, I guess once we get used to this, things won't be so bad. I still say this is a good way for me to get closer to Mina."
Sally laughed and her brother blushed. "You are one lovesick pup!"
