"Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!" Sonic was bouncing all over his bed. It was his first day of Gym class, and he had been waiting for it all week. He couldn't wait. He was so excited that he wanted to run to school, so he could get there early. He finally persuaded his dad to run with him (his dad could run almost as fast as him). He wolfed down his breakfast of oatmeal. His mother had long since given up on trying to get him to eat slowly.
When Sonic got to school, almost no one else was there. He saw Mortimer trying to swing by himself, but he wasn't making much headway. Sonic ran behind him and gave him a push. Sonic asked, "How come you're here so early?" "My dad built this cool car last night. He wanted to test it out, so he drove me to school," Mortimer replied. Sonic and Mortimer played together for a little while. Soon, the bus drove up, and Isaac and Knuckles hopped out. They ran over to play with Mortimer and Sonic. Isaac said, "Hey guys, I want to show you something." Isaac pulled out a little robot from his backpack. Everyone was amazed. "I made it last night. Look what it can do!" Isaac said proudly. He pressed an arrow-shaped button on a remote control. The robot walked forward. He pressed another arrow. He pressed a big red button. The robot jumped up. Everyone was in awe.
On the other end of the playground, Espio had been watching the whole ordeal. "I think it's time to end this geek party." Espio smirked. He went invisible, and walked over to the robot. Isaac was making it walk around again. Espio went up to it and kicked it.
Isaac was making the robot walk around, when it suddenly exploded. Isaac burst into tears. Everyone figured that the robot just malfunctioned, but Mortimer knew otherwise. "That's impossible..." he mused. "It wasn't overheating. It wouldn't have just spontaneously combusted. Unless..." Mortimer looked over at the other side of the playground to see Espio facing the building, laughing. "Espio," he growled. Mortimer marched straight up to him. "Espio, I know you broke Isaac's robot. You'd better apologize, or else." "Or else what?" Espio replied nonchalantly. "You gonna nerd me to death? You can't prove nothin.'"
Mortimer tried to tell the teachers, but they didn't believe him. They said that he shouldn't 'blame someone else just because you're angry'. Sonic tried to comfort Isaac, but it wasn't working. He offered to help build a new robot, but Isaac kept on crying.

Finally, it was time for gym class. Sonic was literally bouncing off the walls. The gym teacher was a fox. His name was Mr. Kazaski. "Okay, kids, welcome to Gym. Today we'll be playing dodge ball. It's very simple. There are two teams. You can never cross the line in the middle. Just throw a ball at someone on the other side. If it hits them, they're out. If everyone on one team gets out, the other team wins. Ready... Set... Go!"
Sonic rushed to the middle to grab a ball. He got there long before anyone else. He ran back and pitched his ball at Rouge. Direct hit. "Ha! That's what you get, Rouge!" "That wasn't fair," Rouge whined. "I wasn't looking." Sonic proceeded to perform excellently, but his team started to lose. Finally, it was just Sonic against three others: Espio, Mary the Echidna, and Matt the wolf. They all threw at Sonic, but Mary's ball went astray. The other two looked like they were to win the game, but in a spectacular play, Sonic dodged to the side, pitching his ball at Matt in mid-air. "No fair!" Matt yelled, stomping off to sit down on the 'out' bench. Sonic sped to the back of the court and picked up a ball. He chucked it at Mary while she was picking one up. She walked over to the bench sadly. "Looks like it's just you and me, dweebhog," Espio said tauntingly. "Go get 'em, Espio!" Rouge cheered on from the sideline. Sonic threw at Espio, but he blocked it with his own ball, which he promptly threw at Sonic. Sonic ducked at the last minute. He turned around, and caught the ball as it ricocheted off the wall. He whipped around and threw it, catching Espio off guard.
"Sonic's team WINS!" Mr. Kazaski yelled. Everyone on Sonic's team started cheering wildly. They hoisted him up on their shoulders, and paraded around the Gym.
Soon, it was time to get on the bus. Mortimer walked up to Isaac. He said, "Don't worry Isaac. Espio is a jerk. Maybe you can come over tomorrow and we can build a new robot. My dad can help us. He's really smart." "Thanks, Mortimer."
Sonic went to bed happy that night, knowing that tomorrow would be a brand new day.
