Chapter 4: A Little Bit Closer



"Huuwaa!" Zidane yawned in the classroom. "It's boring, wonder what





Garnet is doing!?" he added.

"Class! We're going to have a field trip today! It is about 'caring for

wonderful creatures! (Some said their yea's, yahoo's, and yes's) 2 classes

will go today, this class and 4-c."

finished Ms. Tamara.

"But! We're not kids anymore!" said one student.

"I know, I want all of you to go to that zoo because after that, you'll do a

reaction paper. So that no one will get away or no one will have a reason

that he or she had never been in a zoo." Answered Ms. Tamara.

Then some said "Awwwwww."

"4-c!? That's Garnet's class!! . woo-hoo!" Zidane exclaimed

"now class, fall in line!" said Ms. Tamara

\\ after 30 minutes // - - - in the corridors

2 classes fell in line and they rode 3 buses.

"Are we there yet!?" said Blank

"Nope! What we're nearly there!" said Ms. Tamara

When they arrived in the Zoo.

"Zidane! WAKE UP! WE'RE HERE!" said Cinna as he plays with Zidane's

eyelid.

"Huwaaa! Oh! So soon!?" then Zidane got up and jumped down the bus.

"Now class! Everyone is allowed to tour every place in this zoo, just meet

at this place in 9 hours! That'll be this 5 o'clock, clear!?"

"yes Ms. Tamara!" everyone recited

Zidane, Cinna, Blank and Marcus (w/ his girlfriend) toured the place. They

passed giraffes, alligators, birds, then Marcus said "I think we'll be

separated. y'know???"

"OK!" Zidane, Cinna and Blank said.

In the back of the cages and everything, there's a picnic site behind. And

people are eating their lunches there.

"Mmmm! This lasagna is great!" said Zidane

While his taste buds are having a feast, the corner of his eye caught sight

of a bunch of horses. "Yo guys! Horses over there!" Zidane pointed

"I wanna ride it!" said Cinna. "Me too!" said Blank.

Then the three of them hurried off and rented a horse. Cinna rode it first.

After 2 minutes, he returned. "It's kinda fun! But my butt is starting to

have an ache!" he said.

"Duh!! Butt ache!?" uttered Blank

"Chill man! I'll ride it! C'mon, please?" said Zidane. Cinna nodded then he

let Zidane ride it.

He climbed the horse. Then he started to say "yi-haa!" . Then a scream





entered his ears. "Who's that!?" Then he looked around. He saw Garnet,

she can't climb the horse. "I can't ride it! It's too high! And I don't know how to

ride it anyway." Garnet complained

Then Zidane rode the horse to Garnet's "Hey!"

"Oh hi Zidane! Wow! Looks you know how to ride a horse!" Garnet said

"He knows everything!" Rica whispered

"Uh. can you teach me how!?" Garnet asked

"(blushed) no sweat, hop on!" Zidane exclaimed

Then he held Garnet's hand, then Garnet hopped on (but she almost fell)

the horse. Then they rode the horse with Garnet in front. And Zidane holding the

leash. "This is fun!" Garnet exclaimed.

"Sure thing you like it!" he replied. Then a figure stopped them. "Why Ms.

Tamara!?" he asked.

"Here's your quiz result!" then she handed the paper to Zidane. Then he looked

at it a/n: dun dun dun duunn! . "Aww." Zidane uttered

"Hey Zid! Lemme ride it now!" Blank shouted. Then Zidane climbed down the

horse and when he got down, he managed to carry Garnet safely.

"Wazza matter!?" Garnet asked with concern.

"I got an F!" he replied.

"Lemme see that!" Then he handed the paper to Garnet.

"Heh! Lemme teach you about history," she said. Then they sat at the nearby

tree. "OK! You failed in Ancient Living!" she uttered.

"Why!? I don't see any fault here!" he replied

"You see, they had a lot of ways to live their life in the history."

"Why!? They don't eat pizza?"

".No"

"They don't sleep on water beds!?"

"Of course not!"

"They don't play guitars!"

".no! Zidane, you should think about old fashion ways!"

"Oh. OK!" Then a big voice called through the megaphone "Students! It's time

to go!"
