Chapter 2: Live and Learn
Blue "fur's" POV:
"I Don't Wanna go to preschool! I wanna stay with Mommy!"
"Snowy, dear, you will have to go to school eventually. And you will make friends." Said Dad rhetorically. (The persuasive definition, not the sassy one)
"But Bluefur's my friend!"
"Bluefur is, honey." corrected Mommy putting items in our backpacks form across the room, "Stormtail, Can you get them to come over here?
"Kids, do you want to get Candy?"
(O O) {CANDY!}
At the word candy, Snowfur and I ran towards mommy as fast as we can and held up our hands expecting candy. As we looked up, Mommy put matching backpacks on our hands.
"Mommy, where is our candy?" I asked.
"We don't have any candy, Blue shoes."
[Did I just get tricked?] (╯︵╰,)
"Mommy?" I said, eyes tearing up, "Don't we get c-c-c MMMMMMOOOOOMMMMYYYYYY!"
"WAAAAAAHHHH" Cried Snowfur soon after.
(*- -) [Really? I am a BLOODY AGENT]
"GrEaT," I couldn't really make out what dad said through my fake tears. "YoU'vE GoT tHe KiDs ExPeCtInG CaNdY. *sigh* I'll GeT tHe CaNdY."
"Thank you daddy!" We said, smiling.
"Alright, We caught you faking your tears. You shouldn't exploit Daddy's weaknesses. You will get no candy today, honey. "
I began to fake cry again.
"Life ain't fair." Said Mommy who grabbed us by the arm and started dragging us towards the door.
"This is why we prefer dad more." Snowfur pouted as we got in the car.
"Hello, I am your teacher, and welcome to advanced kindergarten, You have been proven you are smarter than most children your age and know proper grammar. (So this story doesn't get flamed by grammar Nazis, but I probably have a lot of punctuation errors that go unnoticed and get flamed anyways.) Let's go around the circle and say our name, age, and favorite ice cream flavor. Let's start with Thistleclaw."
The teacher pointed to a tall blonde sitting across the circle.
"Hello, My name is Thistleclaw, which is a little redundant. I am 4 years old, and my favorite flavor is Cookies and cream."
"Good, Let's go counter clockwise, which is this way."
He twirled his finger one way.
"Hello, My name is Rosetail! I like Carmel." A hyper ponytailed brunette waved. " I am Thistleclaw's sister,"
"Younger sister!" exclaimed Thistleclaw.
"By a few seconds."
"Still older!"
"La La La, I don't care, La La La!"
\(0(BY A FEW SECONDS)0)/ … (-.-) [My, My he is stupid]
Very quietly, I heard the teacher mutter, "I thought this was the smart class."
It turns out I was not the only one who listened to him, as Snowfur said, "It wasn't really smart to teach a kindergarten class."
A collective series of Ohhhhs followed the statement as our teacher and Snowfur squared off in one of the most silent stare downs in my life. It was so tense, that even Thistleclaw and Rosetail had stop fighting and looked at the dueling gladiators.
"That isn't really nice to say, Snowfur."
"It isn't good to insult your students, Mister."
(◣_◢)┌-∩┐ (Snowfur)
"I'm sure that your parents would not be glad that their daughter insulted the teacher on the first day."
"I'm not sure that your parents would be glad about you bullying your students with words."
"That's it, we are going to see the superintendent, little missy."
"Very well."
Our instructor and my sister walked towards the door. I imagined what would happen if Mommy found out about what would happened right now. She would get so mad with us, and take away our candy. Uh-oh.
"Wait, Mister, My sister is a bit disrespectful, please forgive her."
My sister quickly whispered with a angry look, "Why are you doing this."
"To keep our candy stash intact." I whispered back.
"Yeah, Just because she is a little…. Rude," a gasp form my sister quickly followed suit, "doesn't mean she should be punished." Rosetail Reasoned.
"Well, " Argued Thistleclaw, who probably has not forgot about his little altercation with his younger sister, "I think she is brave to stand up to the powerful people." To which my sister immediately flushed, and Thistleclaw grinned at her.
( -_-) [I don't get payed enough for this]
Our educator, who was watching this with a smirk on his face, said, "I won't report you, but you better not insult me again, got it?"
"Sure." Snowfur said, and prominently rolled her eyes.
"Alright, We will talk to your parents after this, but let's finish talking about ourselves first. How about you, young lad?" He said
The oddly silent boy spoke for the first time, "Hello, my name is Thrushpelt, and I and 4 as well. What was the other thing we were supposed to describe?"
"Our favorite Ice cream color."
"Okay, My favorite Ice cream color is Mint."
"Great, let's keep on going."
"Okay my name is Fuzzypelt and …."
For the next minute, I sat through introductions which took forever. When It got to my turn, I stood up and proudly spoke:
\(^ ^)/ {My name is Bluefur, I am 4 and two months year old, and my favorite Ice cream color is Banana!}
And then it went to a boring conversation again... NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOUR FAVIORITE ICECREAM FLAVORS, KIDS.
{All right, it is 2:25, time to go home now, your parents will be here soon. Good bye guys. And gals.} (◔_◔) [Hallelujah]
"Hi mom!" Said my Sister, "How are you?"
"Good, did everything go alright?" Mom asked me.
My sister quickly stared at me, shaking her head back and forth, I did the reasonable thing and say, "No, not at all."
"Oh, Are you Snowfur's parents?"
[Mouse dung] (0-0;)
"Yeah, " replied Dad, "What about it."
"Let's go into the room and talk about Snowfur's manners."
"I tried, Snowfur."
"I know. No more candy for us."
After a few moments of silence looking at the door, I turned around and noticed that there was only 3 children left: Sweetpaw, Rosetail, and Thistleclaw. Two of them were siblings as I knew it, but I don't know if sweetpaw is related to any one in the class. Thistleclaw caught me looking at him, and flexed his nonexistent muscles, and Rosetail slapped him.
ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ
"Snowfur, " Mom said as she walked out of the door, "did you get in trouble?"
Snowfur was looking at something particular on her shoe, and seemed very interested in it.
…(¬‿¬) [What did you say in Bastogne?] -Stormtail
(- -) [Really?] -Moonflower
"Bluefur, " Mom said when she knew she wouldn't get an answer form Snowfur, "Did you lie about not getting into trouble?"
I crouched down and went to see what was so interesting about Snowfur's shoe.
(- -*)
"They know how to avoid interrogation, honey. They must have gotten that from me, as I have incredible willpower." Dad boasted.
"Stop boasting about your bloody skills and help me crack them."
"So I'm the good cop and you're the bad cop. Okay. Snowfur, if you don't apologize to your teacher, then you will be a bad person, and you won't get any candy for being bad."
"Oh, It is not Snowfur's fault."
I looked up and saw Thistleclaw next to Snowfur, and looking up at my parents. He was also holding a cue card with Rosetail's writing on it.
"You see, we were playing outside, and I accidentally kick a ball and hit Mr. Stoneplet. He turned around and saw Snowfur and thought she did it." Thistleclaw lied.
"Okay, I guess we will file a complaint."
"No No No No, It was not his fault." I butted in, "He had good reason to think it was Snowfur."
"And what was that reason?" Mom questioned, looking at Snowfur.
"Well, " Snowfur elaborated, "It was because I was running in that direction."
"Well-"
"Honey, " Dad said as he unknowingly saved us from the possibility accidently giving my mom the fact we were lying. "Maybe they are telling the truth."
"But she…" Mom looked at dad, and began one of their silent conversations.
…(0_0)
(\/ ) (Ponytail)
I heard the creaking of the door, and looked to find a middle aged women in the doorway.
"Hi, Thistleclaw, Rosetail, Sweetpaw. Sorry I was late. I had a meeting with a friend."
"Oh," She said as she realized her son is looking up at my Mom. "you look strangely like someone I know. Nevermind that, I don't think we have met before, my name is Poppydawn, How are you?"
"Very good, Thank you. We were just about to leave." Mom said, suddenly in a rush to get out.
"No we weren't" Thistleclaw, Snowfur, and I argued.
"Say, didn't we see her before somewhere?" Dad asked.
"Obviously not. Now it is time to go, we are sorry about that."
"Oh, It's fine" Poppydawn smiled, "We are leaving too. We hope to see you at the parents meeting next week."
"Same." Dad said. "Alright, time to go home. Say goodbye, kids."
"Bye guys." I said.
"See you later, Guys." Said Rosetail.
"Sayonara, Sweetheart." Thistleclaw said, blowing a kiss to Snowfur.
- All the adults either laughed, or melted into awws. (Poppydawn)
- Snowfur was downright embarrassed.
- Rosetail and Sweetpaw were laughing their tails off.
Me? I didn't know how to feel. I was annoyed though.
"Okay Thistleclaw, here's a tip. What you read in your romance books won't work in real life, right?" I said, looking at my sister, "Right?!"
"What?" My sister finally realized that it was her cue to talk. "Yeah, it will work."
(-‸ლ) […]
"Okay, Romeo. Time to go home. Bye." Sweetpaw rolled her eyes.
A chorus of byes followed after, and the four of them left.
"Snowfur, You shouldn't fall in love so soon. You don't know him. He could be a murder, or a Shadowclan spy." I commented.
"Your just jealous that no boy has an interest in you."
"No way!"
"-That any boy would like you. Thank you for finishing my sentence!"
"Shut up, you shameless flirt!"
"Alright, How 'bout I fix you a sandwich of Peanut Butter and Jelly?" Snowfur snickered.
"Snowfur, Your puns don't make sense, it is an ludicrous non sequitur."
"Your superficial use of foreign terms is ludicrous."
(ง •̀_•́)ง [You wanna go, Snowfur?]
"Why are you guys arguing about such a petty subject?" Mom questioned, exasperated.
"Mind your business, Mom." I said.
"Ladies, Let's just do it in the car while we are going home, so we aren't stuck at the daycare forever." Dad sighed.
"Fair enough." Mom said.
"I won't object." I spoke.
"I guess I have no choice..."
And with that, we walk to the car and drove home, bickering about puns, Snowfur's love life, and Candy privileges.
