Scott was getting sick of being made fun of for his clumsiness. He decided
that he should at least try and make some more friends seeing how he only
has one, and that was Bart. He also decided that he could gain friends by
impressing people with his skill of tactics in the military.
Scott got off his bed and headed off to the game room so he could try and meet a friend but he had trouble opening the door of the barracks so he could get out. He stood there for a minute trying to figure out how to open the door; for he was never told how to open them from the inside. Finally, a blonde haired kid had to show him that there was a pad where you placed your hand to open the door. Scott smiled with embarrassment and the blonde haired rolled his eyes.
He was amazed at how big the school was, but the one thing he couldn't understand was that it sloped up in front of him and in back. He finally came to the game room where only a few kids were standing around a game that involved moving a fleet of ships around and engaging the other player's fleet in battle to win.
"Hey look! It's the fat kid that destroyed one of the barracks. They say that this place is almost indestructible but I guess it's not Scott proof!" said one who had long black hair. They all laughed at this comment. "Why don't you come over here and face me in this game, but I doubt you'll get far against me," he said.
"Alright," said Scott a little hesitant at first, but he stepped up to the console and waited for the game to start.
The holographic display appeared and Scott immediately started moving his ships in strange tactics that none of the other boys had ever seen before. He engaged the other kid's fleet in a matter of minutes and demolished them effortlessly.
He looked at Scott with eyes wide in surprise. "How the hell did you do that?!?!?!?!"
Scott grinned with pride as he explained his tactics and why they worked. The other kids just listened in shock.
Scott left the game room with a sense of pride with him. Maybe he'll get a little respect now that he proved himself. Not with brawn but with his mind. Life at battle school for Scott was getting a little better.
