The Next Time Around
By Lady Ching
Author's Note: Hi! I've never really written a Fanfiction before, so I guess that this is my first time. It's called, The Next Time Around, and it's about Degrassi Community School's third generation. If this works out, it'll be first in a series. Now, I'm not going to tell you that you have to review, but all types of reviews are welcome by me.
The following chapter (the Introduction) is just about what happened to the characters of the last generation. Oh, here's a hint: If a character (or a certain pair of characters) moved away from Toronto, then I promise you that they will have something to do with the story in late chapters.
Introduction
What Ever Happened to...?
Emma and Toby Isaacs – Shortly after the Degrassi shooting, Toby asked Emma out for dinner. They grew quite fond of each other…and became a couple. Four years after Toby graduated from Berkeley University, and Emma graduated from Mount Saint Vincent University in Nova Scotia as a teacher, they got married, and Emma had a baby Boy, Ellis Isaacs. That was twelve years ago. Emma teaches at Bardell High School in Toronto, in Science, and Toby is a computer programmer.
Craig and Ashley Manning – "Crazy Craig" learned to control his problems, and lives a normal life with his wife, Ashley, and his two children, Priyanka, who is twelve, and Heaven, who is ten. Downtown Sasquatch never really became "famous," but they do play concerts regularly at The Dot, which Ashley and Craig both worked together on buying and renovating, turning it into a coffeehouse. Ashley is a waitress, and also works in Downtown Toronto in a Chapters bookstore. Once in a while, children from around their new neighborhood will ask her for a short piano lesson.
Terri McGreggor – Terri recovered well from her injury. After she was released from intensive care, her father sent her off to a Private Boarding school in the St. Catherine's Area. She attended McMaster University, and later moved off to Moncton, New Brunswick, to study the French language. She adopted a girl, Lee Anne, who is now thirteen, as a single parent. Terri has never been aware of Rick's death, since her, Paige, and Hazel, never kept in touch. She moved back to Toronto with Lee Anne, who will be starting grade eight at Degrassi in September. Terri has a job working as a customs officer, and is still single.
Dylan Michalchuck and Marco Del Rossi – Dylan and Marco stayed together as life partners, and adopted two boys. Corey is thirteen, and entering grade seven (he was held back last year) and Damon is twelve, and also entering grade seven. Corey took the last name of Dylan, and Damon did the same with Marco. Dylan is a doctor at the "Sick Kids" hospital, and coaches Bantam hockey in his spare time. Marco went to Culinary Arts school, and became an amazing chef. They both live happily in Toronto.
Hazel Aden and Jimmy Brooks – Sadly, Jimmy is still paralyzed. He and Hazel eloped in the year 2008. They are now divorced. Some people say it is because Hazel couldn't put up with Jimmy's disability, others, that know the couple fairly well, say that it's because they couldn't love each other anymore, which is quite likely. Together, they had a daughter, Ellen Brooks, who is twelve and entering grade seven. She lives with Hazel, and visits Jimmy every second week. Jimmy stuck with sports, and coaches University wheelchair basketball, and is quite the table-tennis player. He can also ski with his chair. Hazel is a homemaker.

They live in New York City with their thirteen-year-old fraternal twins, Ashleigh and Sutton.

A/N: These are just the characters that pop into my mind instantly. If I forgot anyone, I'll introduce them in the story.
