((A/N This is a story about Columbia going to high school. She is with frank but Brad and Janet have not arrived at the castle. Thanks so much to Kerstin who was my beta reader and thanks to all the people who inspired some of the characters. Disclaimer: I do NOT own any of these characters but like everyone else I wish I did cries))
The sun shone brightly through the window in Columbia's bedroom. "Oh it's too early for the sun to be out," the sleepy red-head said as she turned over to look at the clock. "7 o'clock? Oh shit!"
Columbia scrambled out of bed and put on the uniform that Frank had given her the previous day. "This is what I have to wear?" She whined to Frank when he showed her the bland white top and grey kilt that hit at about an inch below her knees.
Just as she had applied the finishing touches of shimmery peach eyeshadow to her heavily made-up eyes she heard a gong ring and a familiar voice shouting."Columbia hurry up and eat your breakfast or you vill be late for school!"
"Coming Magenta!" Columbia yelled as she grabbed her bag and ran down the stairs. She got to the kitchen and sat down quietly at the table.
'I wonder what they'll think of me. I haven't been to school for about three years,' She thought to herself.
Columbia looked down at her breakfast of eggs and bacon. She had already decided she was too nervous to eat when someone covered her eyes with their hands.
"Guess who?" A familiar voice cooed.
"Frankie I know that's you," Columbia said excitedly. She hadn't seen Frank for awhile. He now spent nearly almost all his time in the lab working on some sort of "project". Columbia turned around and wrapped her arms around Frank and he started kissing her passionately on the neck.
"Ooh, oh Frankie stop your going to give me a hicky!" She giggled, happy that he was paying attention to her again.
"I heard that it is my little groupie's first day of school?" he said looking deep into her eyes.
"Yeah it is! I'm so excited! Are you driving me?" she asked batting her eyelashes at Frank. "I'm so sorry Columbia, I can't. You are forgetting you are going to a Catholic school and they are very touchy about transvestites and the like. They're very conservative and I hear the girls there are quite vicious so I wanted you to make a good first impression. Plus I need to work on my project."
On that last statement he winked at Columbia, gave her a quick kiss on the cheek, and left the room. Columbia forced herself to take a few bites of eggs and a swig of milk and walked out of the kitchen. She saw Magenta waiting for her at the door although instead of her skimpy maid's uniform she wore a white halter top jeans and she had taken off some of her eye make-up. "Wow! You look great!" Columbia exclaimed, surprised that she had something on other than her uniform.
Magenta blushed, she did not think that she looked good in earth clothing. "Vell the master said that if I vear this the Earth people might zink I am some sort of...vat is ze vord...hooker" Columbia laughed at that statement. "Vhy are you laughing?" Magenta demanded, although Columbia was now laughing so hard that she could not answer.
Magenta looked at the watch that Frank had given her earlier that day. "Columbia ve should get going or you vill be late for school!" By now Columbia had stopped laughing.
"Yeah I guess we should get going" she said in a nervous tone as her smile disappeared. Columbia then picked up her bags and headed for Frank's blue pick-up truck...
