---------------------------------

(Later that morning...)

Phibby: Why are we here?

Mia: I need to go to school.

Phibby: Why am I here? Is it my punishment?

Mia: No. My mom just doesn't trust you enough to leave you alone in our house.

Random Idiot # 1: Hey, let me have a drag.

Idiot #2: *hands him a cigarette* Here ya go.

Idiot #1: What's with the kid?

Idiot #2: *shrugs*

Shawn: You better watch it. He's a murderer.

Idiots: Huh?

Shawn: He'll kill ya.

Idiot #1: That little brat?

Idiot #2: Hell No!

*both idiots begin laughing*

Phibby: *very, VERY angry* WHY YOU!!! I'LL--

Mia: *warningly* Don't you dare.

Phibby: What's the fun of All Souls Day if I don't have any new souls?

Mia: Be good, or I'll mare your punishment worse.

Phibby: *sighs* Fine.

*the bus pulls up and the doors open. kids begin getting on*

Bus Driver Joe: Hey, Kid, this is the high school bus.

Phibby: *blinks* I know.

Joe: So get lost. I'll come back for you later.

Phibby: I'll drive! *snaps his fingers, Joe vanishes*

Shawn: You did one good thing at least...Can you drive?

Phibby: When yer around for 1000 years, you tend to pick up on stuff. *to every one* Buckle up!

Idiot #3: Hell no!

Phibby: Hell, eh? You obviously don't know who I am, *sighs* Another one bites the dust *snaps fingers again, the kid disappears in a "poof")

*the rest of the kids immediately buckle their seats*

Ashlie: *sitting next to Mia* Who's the kid?

Mia: My best friend, Phibby.

Phibby: THAT'S HELLMASTER PHIBRIZIO TO YOU!!!

(At school)

Mia: C'mon, we need to sign you in and get you a visitor's pass.

Phibby: M'kay.

*Mia leads him to the front desk*

Mia: Hi, Mrs. P! This is Phibrizio. He's visiting today.

Mrs. P: *to herself* Kids these days are so small...

Mia: *snickers* She thinks you're an eighth grader.

Mrs. P: Sign here. *points to sign-in sheet*

Phibby: *signs sheet "Hellmaster Phibrizio" in sloppy cursive* All done!

Mrs. P: *hands him a pass* Have a good time.

(In the halls)

Random Student #1: Who's the kid?

Student #2: Look at the little boy!

Student #3: He's so cute!

Teacher: Young Man, what are you doing in the High School?

Phibby: *clings to Mia so he's not swept away in the flow of teenagers* I don't like it here, Mia.

Mia: Only five more hours.

Phibby: ...eh...{I don't think I can take it...}

(in Government class)

Mia: This is my...cousin...Phibrizio. He's visiting today.

Mr. T: Hello. *offers a hand to the Hellmaster*

Phibby: Finally! Some one who shows a little respect!

*they shake hands*

Becca: Oh, what a cute little boy! He's so adorable!

Phibby: *twitches* NO!!!! make it stop...

Becca: Oh, Mia, he's soooo sweet! How old is he?

Mia: Ten.

Phibby: *fuming* TEN!?!? Mia!

Mia: *to Phibby* I'm sorry. She's always like this and it's killing me. Bear with it.

Sarah: Why is there a kid here?

Phibby: Maybe cuz I'm smarter than you and I skipped a buncha grades.

Katie: What a little brat! But he's related to Mia, so it's no surprise.

Mia: Hey!

Phibby: *frowns* Leave Mia out of this!

Katie: I hate to break it to you, but your cousin's a jerk.

*Sarah nods in agreement*

Phibby: *smiles* Mia, may I?

Mia: Go for it.

Phibby: S'long! *two more snaps and both girls disappear*

Class: *falls silent*

(Phys Ed)

Phibby: That's her?

Mia: Yeah.

Phibby: That one? *points*

Mia: Yup.

Phibby: She called you fat?

Mia *nods* Yeah.

Phibby: Well, I say better fat than dead. *snaps*

Heather: WHAT THE F--?!?! *vanishes*

Phibby: That'll learn her.

[don't ask. i love that phrase...]

Mia: Thanks!

---------------------------------

AN: thus ends Phibby's brief stint at JC High. i guess the reason i show up at Cyris' school is cause of Phibby getting me in trouble for the *ahem* "disappearances" of so many of my classmates...
