A/N- I'm sorry that this chapter took so long to get up, but as I have said
before, I am in Texas, and would like to spend as much time with my
grandparents as possible. It's pretty hot down here, and I'm starting to
miss the cool weather in Washington, and being my usual punk self. This
will be either the second to last, or the third to last chapter in this
fanfic. Thanks again for your patience,
~Elwyn

It didn't take long to make the necessary preparations- Ten minutes at the most.
The resistance had found desks from inside classrooms, and had barricaded two exits to the left and right, so that it was impossible for any Preps to get through. There was only one way to attack, and that was from the courtyard. They had a classroom in back of them at their disposal, which they could use to hide out in if things got too dodgy.
"Ugh, c'mon and help me with these books, will you?" They were building a defensive wall with textbooks. Laura glared at Elwyn and Rachel, who were siting down, and flipping through a stack of papers with interest. At Laura's words, Elwyn stuffed them hurriedly behind her. Laura set, or rather dropped, the stack of textbooks she was holding.
"And what are *those*?"
"Erm. . . nothing?"
"El, give those to me." Elwyn flinched at her voice, which was dripping ice, and very calm. Not a combination you really wanted to hear. Elwyn picked up the papers very gingerly, and Laura snatched them away. She rifled through them, and gave a strangled shout.
"Pictures of *Orlando Bloom*?!? NOW?!?"
"It, er, keeps out hopes up." Tried Rachel.
Laura proceeded to rip them violently, so by the end of it, it looked like very expensive confetti. Rachel and Elwyn gave a cry of indignation.
"Those were good pictures, mate!" Said Elwyn, sulkily.
"Oh, so sorry," He voice was sarcasm incarnate, "But now it's time to stop ogling the homosexual Elf, and help us build out defensive walls."
Laura stalked off after picking up the books. Rachel and Elwyn paused to mourn the confetti.
"How. . . could she?" "She's heartless, that must be it." Rachel laughed at this.
"Yeah, maybe so, but we really ought to help with the wall."
In truth, the defensive wall was only textbooks, but since they had used every one in the entire school, they were forced to use an empty desk to see over the top of it.
*~*~*~*~*~*
Sarah turned to face Andrew.
"You know, it's a shame that we never got around to messing with the Prep's make-up. We were planning to do that."
Andrew grinned.
"You didn't, we did."
"Seriously?"
"Yup. Powdered sugar for eye shadow, and maple syrup for lip-gloss. Of course, it'll be near impossible for them to get the stuff off, especially since we added the permanent dye."
"You did what?"
"Added some really strong dye, so they're lips will be blue and green for the next month."
Sarah burst out laughing.
"That's brilliant! Have you told the others?"
"Yeah, a little while ago. They thought it, er, amusing as well."
"Prep's wont."
"Well, I hardly put blue and green dye into people's lip-gloss to make them look good." *~*~*~*~*~*
It was all done. The wall was ready, and the barricades were finished. The Four and the Fifth member sat in a small circle. Laura held the Ring.
"Do you guys think we'll win?"
"I'm not sure, I saw the difference in numbers, you know."
The door to the front was opened, and instead of shouts of fear, it was of surprise. The Four and the Fifth member stood up, to see. . .
"We come to honour an allegiance made long ago." Said Cindy, all the Band members behind her.
The Four gaped, while Andrew tried to be polite, and started clapping. Applause broke out, and Elwyn ran over to Cindy and gave her a high five.
"I knew you'd come through for us! Well, er, actually, I didn't, but never mind that."
Cindy smirked.
"Just don't forget the nice little deal you made me." She walked off, yelling a command for the Band students to move forward. Elwyn followed, her mood only dampened slightly.
*~*~*~
The Orchestra students had their instrument bows to fight with, the Outcasts, their card packs, of which they had filled with very heavy rocks, and the Band students brought drumsticks, flutes, and anything else that could be used to thwap the Preps over their heads.
They stood up near the wall, patiently waiting. They figured that with the time thye spent fixing everything up, it wouldn't be long before they were fighting. Indeed, they only had to wait five minutes.
Rachel, Sarah, Laura, or Elwyn could not recount the last time they had seen so much pink. The Preps were all dressed in bright pink Roxy, Abercrombie and Fitch, and Old Navy garb, that it was almost impossible to distinguish them from fluffy pink stuffed animals.
Well, except for the blue and green lips, that is. Laura looked for the Nine, but found that they weren't there.
Very suspicious.
Andrew looked around to his fellow Outcasts.
"FIRE!"
A whirlwind of card cases were flung at the Prep's direction, and a lot of them fell over. Cursing, the Preps charged forward, brandishing perfume, and pink lipstick.
"Let's go!"
The resistance met the Preps head on, and used some very tricky bow work that would have accounted for nothing in class, unfortunately. There were a few hollow sounds as a few flutes met the heads of Preps, and some cries and some sprayed perfume in their face. The Four motioned to Cindy.
"We need to go. Can you handle this?"
"Sure, but hurry back as fast as you can with help, alright?"
Rachel, Andrew, Sarah, Laura, and Elwyn ran to the open classroom, and headed for the open window, which they climbed out of, and hurried off to the other side of the desks. They could open the Seventh Grade science classroom's windows, and get back into the main hall quickly. Then, they could make their way to the Room of Doom.

A/N- Post another in a few more days if I get lots of reviews, alright? Two more and I reach fifty!!!!!!!!!!!
