A/N: I hope you are enjoying this remake of Fandom High! I have been moving things around to make a better story and deleting some characters I didn't like. I hope you enjoy!
Shout out to S Danyal Allen and her Fanfiction series: The Many Adventures of Natius and Friends . If you like my story check hers out, because it deals with the same characters and a similar plot. Please read her story and review! :)
Hello, everyone. I am Clark Kent, also known as Superman. I ask that you please keep my identity secret, unlike some of the other teachers at the school." The man with black hair and glasses smiled at us.
"He's totally talking about Stark!" Jules yelled and giggled.
"That is correct, miss Jules." Kent smiled wider and continued with the lesson. I wasn't much of a superman fan but he seems to be nice at least.
"I will be your English teacher, I ask each of you to complete your homework on time and pay attention in class. So really not much. I hope we can all get along and peacefully co-exsist. Now can we start by handing out your english textbooks. Um, how about you?" Kent gestured to Rapunzel. Rapunzel jumped out her seat and happily started handing out everyone's textbook. She stepped carefully, making sure she didn't step on her very, VERY long hair. "And... uh... you" A boy named Flynn Rider rolled his eyes before helping Rapunzel with the textbooks.
"Thanks for the help, Blondie." Flynn winked at Rapunzel.
"You're helping me" Rapuzel corrected.
"You tell him." Jules smiled encouragingly.
"Hey Rapunzel, wanna hang out later." I asked. We still hadn't had much of a chance to get to know each other yet, and I wanted to get to know the perky blonde.
"Sure, but I have Gardening Club-" She started.
"Me too!" I grinned.
"Great! I'll see you then, and we can hang out after!" She laughed and passed me my textbook.
"I look forward to it." I nodded.
"Welcome students to Algebra II, I'm sure you'll find it begmatic and praguiling . Er, Pragmatic and beguiling!" Dr. Doppler, another alien teacher of mine spoke. He seemed very dog-like in nature and he pushed his glasses up his dog like nose. "As you might have noticed, I am also the astronomy teacher here. My name is Doctor Delburt Dopper, perhaps you've all heard of me?" He pulled his jacket lapels proudly at this. No one raised their hand or said a word. He coughed awkwardly before continuing. "Well ok, everyone pull out your textbooks, we will start on quadratic equations."
The class groaned. Carrie passed me a note when Dr. D wasn't looking. It read: I need some help in vet club. Feel like helping out a friend? At the bottom their were two boxes that read: Of course!and Yes, I'll be there. I rolled my eyes but smiled before ticking the latter. I handed it back to her as Dr. D started talking again.
"Oh! before we start! I would like you all to join me in Astronomy! It's a fascinating subject! I hope to see you there, and it starts tonight so sign up quickly!" I smirked. Yes, that's not likely. I like my sleep. "All Astronomy students are allowed to have select hours for napping, and are allowed and extra day on homework in every class."
"Where can I sign up?" My hand shot up excitedly.
"Oh good someone's interested." The teacher sounded relieved. "You can sign up on the clipboard here on my desk."
"That could be interesting." Jack Frost sat next to me, obviously bored.
"I'm just in it for the extra homework time." I admitted.
"Well that's not bad ether." Jack nodded. "Well at least it will be a more interesting class."
"Agreed" I sighed.
I picked up a tray, a floating blue lady with a name tag that just said "Lunch lady" glared at me as I took two servings of Chinese food and soy sauce, I left her grumbling about meat. I saw Bree sitting with her brothers and Danny's gang eating in the Jungle section, and passed them, not really feeling like sitting next to them. I looked for others to sit by and ended up in the Blacklight section, alone, sitting in a corner. But sitting alone was nice and relaxing in its own way, there was no one bugging me and no one asking me for favors. Sighing happily, I stood after eating half my lunch and walked out to grab some ketchup.
A minute later I ran back in because I didn't want someone to take my tray. Crap, I'm an idiot! I had just picked it up when I heard the shout. "GET DOWN!" I threw the tray to one side as I dived, two figures flew over my head and crashed into the wall. One was the lunch lady that had glared at me, and the other was Danny... I think. His hair was white, and his eyes were glowing green, he was knocked on his side and for a second we shared eye contact. "Danny?"
"Skyler?" He asked.
"I WILL TAKE CONTROL OF THE CAFETERIA, AND ALL KIDS WILL EAT MEAT!" I was so confused, what was happening?
"Not on my watch, Hairnet," He jumped on the table, took out what looked like a thermos and pointed it at the lunch lady, or he tried to, but he slipped on my lunch tray and dropped it.
"HAHA Nice try, boy," The lady started floating for the exit.
I had no idea what was happening, but without hesitating, I grabbed the thermos, picked it up, and pointed it at her.
"Don't count us out quite yet!" I said with the in-the-moment-confidence voice and took off the cap. A bright blue beam of light with white rings emulating from its circular projection exploded from the thermos. Her body was then sucked into the tiny vacuum as she cried an elongated 'no', and in the very same moment, she fully disappeared. I put the cap back on with a definitive snap and lock. That was sooooo coooool! I thought with ecstasy as I helped Danny up and gave him the thermos. When I looked at his face he was panicked and worried, it took me a second as to why, but then I realized.
"So, I'm guessing you don't want anyone finding out about this?"
"That would be preferable…" He answered.
"Understood." I gave a two fingered salute and picked up my tray. " See ya round, Danny. By the way you totally owe me lunch."
"Well, considering what happened when I first met you, I'd say we're just about even." He remarked.
"Fine…" I stuck out my tongue and left. The cafeteria was busy, so I pushed people out of my way, not caring about the people grumbling behind me.
I tried pushing someone in front, but the knocked me to the ground. Dash. "Well if it isn't Fenton's girlfriend." He crossed his arms.
"Wow," I said sarcastically. "Seriously, Dash, get out of my way," I tried to get passed him. I quickly dodged his arm and ran past him.
"GET BACK HERE PAIGE!" I swiveled around, Dash was charging me. Before I knew what I was doing. I had grabbed a near-by juice box and splashed into his eyes, blinding him, and as he passed me, I tripped him, he slid a couple feet on the floor.
"Such a gentleman," I bowed and made a rude gesture with my hand before turning again.
I had only one tray that had very little food compared to what I usually had."Hey, can I get a chair or what?" I parked my new tray of food next to Tyrus. He smiled, but didn't take his legs off the chair, I pushed his feet down and sat in the chair all in one motion, only to have him put his feet on me. We both burst out laughing.
"Who's your friend?" Jesse asked walking up to us.
"Tyrus." He smiled at Jesse.
"Yo, I'm Jesse." He sat next to me.
I was just reaching for my nice juice orange when- BAM! Blue slime covered the walls, the tables, and the chairs. Most of me was covered in slime, but Jesse seemed to have tried to cover me from some of the blast. I turned to see a small goo bomb in the center on the room. Dash came out from behind a wall, laughing his butt off. "DASH!" I screamed and threw my orange at him. The orange hit him on the forehead and stopped his laughing.
"Paige! you'll pay for that!" Dash turned and left.
"Thanks, partner." I said halfheartedly to Jesse.
"You're welcome for saving your life," He said smugly.
"Ugh" I spat out some blue goo that got in my mouth and glared at the the door Dash exited. "You guys just go, I'll clean this up."
"No way," Tyrus frowned. "We're helping."
"Count me in. No way I'm leaving all this to my food person." Jesse nodded.
"Thanks, guys." "Thanks, guys." I replied. I almost wanted to tell them no and just to leave it to me again, but I didn't want to argue with them, I was already mad enough at Dash-Bag. It took us 15 minutes to get every glob of slime off. Jesse mostly just cheered us on. "I think we all need a good shower. I'd give you guys a hug, but you're covered in as much gross goo as I am." " I picked slime out my hair. Jesse put a hand on my shoulder, and my hair instantly froze into a block of ice. I freaked out. "UNFREEZE MY HAIR RIGHT NOW OR I WILL-"
"I GOT THIS!" Fire leaped from Tyrus' hands and onto my head, unfreezing my hair. The melted ice water soaked me, and my hair was on fire.
"Tyrus!" I screamed. Jesse grabbed a textbook and tried to whack me on the head with it. "What is that going to do?!" I yelled dodging it.
"I don't know, I just wanted to try it," he replied with a shrug.
"WAIT!" Tyrus said almost too happily.
"Whatever you're about to try-" A wave of water soaked my entire body, my hair was out, and I stood shivering from the ice cold water. "-don't" I stammered.
"WE DID IT!" Jesse held up his hands in victory.
"You're welcome, Skyler!" Tyrus said happily.
"Sc-screw y-you." I shivered.
I walked through the now most empty cafeteria, soaked to the bone. "Well what happened here?" I turned to see a large man... cyborg. "Looks like you've got yourself into some trouble!" The cyborg had a metal red eye that was shining in my face.
"I-I um..." I found I forgot how to speak.
"Oh, don't worry lass, I'm just worried you've been pushed around to much. The name's Silver! And I work in these here kitchens!" He slammed down a large box full of empty trays on a nearby counter.
"I'm Skyler." I blinked. "And I'm fine."
"Well lass, if ya need anything, anything at all, just ask your good man Silver."
"Will do." I nodded.
I sloshed and dripped all the way to my next class. I sat down next to Merida and Tiana. Tiana had the best New Orlean accent, it made me smile listening to it. "So what do you guys want to do when you get out of here?" I casually asked hoping for both my friends to keep speaking in their own interesting ways.
"Well, my Mum wants us to go back to Scotland, she's the art teacher here so my whole family is currently enrolled here, minus my Da. "Merida rolled her eyes and shrugged. "My Mum also wants me to get married sometime soon."
"Married?" I exclaimed. "Soon?"
"That's what I said!" She nodded vigorously.
"I'm not so sure about marriage myself, but my Mom, keeps tell me all about how she 'needs grandkids'. Well! Sorry Mom I got other things on my mind! When an get outta here, Ima go back to New Orleans and get myself a restaurant! And it'll have the best Gumbo in the whole city!" Tiana's eyes sparkled as she spoke. "Whatta about you?"
"Me?" I asked. "I'll... well... I guess I don't know." I admitted.
"You'll find somein'" Tiana smiled. "I'm sure of it."
"Heyo class! Name's Peter Parker and I'm Spider-Man! I'm here to teach your guy's photography class. I'm new to the whole teaching thing, so bare with me ok? I'll try to keep this cool if you guys do your work. We got a deal? Great!" Peter was very energetic. I was excited to have a class with such a young teacher, I could tell he could empathize with the students and still have us get our work done. Or maybe I'm just saying that because I'm a big Spider-Man fan.
"I'm here for two reasons, I'm Bored, and I want to next generation to be slightly less... like Watson, my Aid," Sherlock strolled around and used big sweeps of his hands and gestures to talk. Watson crossed his arms at the the insult, but seemed like he was used to it. "I'm going to start with the basics. Takes notes," Jesse, sitting next to me in the front row, got out a spiral notebook. "NO NOTEBOOKS," Sherlock picked it up and threw it across the room. "Use your head for once." After explaining a complicated process, we were brought files full of pictures and evidence ask asked to solve a case. "Now pair up all of you."
"I'm guessing you mean me and Goth-uckle over here." I pointed at Jesse. Jesse looked up and glared.
"I'm not a goth... I'm more of a... Punk..." He said with a much sass as that sentence could possibly have.
"Whatever, lets just solve this murder." I took out some pictures and started studying them.
"Whatever, let's just solve this murder." Jesse mocked.
"Whatever. Let's just solve this murder." Morph mimicked Jesse.
"WHATEVER! Let's just solve this murder!" I exclaimed.
"WHATEVER!" Morph and Jesse mimicked together. "LET'S JUST SOLVE THIS MURDER!"
"ONE MORE WORD AND I'LL THROW THE THREE OF YOU OUT THE WINDOW!" Sherlock screamed.
This continued the entire class. And it seemed like I was the only person who actually liked the teacher, he seemed to piss off or scare everyone else.
I sighed happily as I walked into a beautiful greenhouse. It was slightly hotter in here and there was an earthy smell to everything. There were many rows of long tables covered in plants of all kinds in all stages of life. A few butterflies manages to sneak inside somehow and they danced among the leaves.
"Wow..." I muttered.
"I know!" A familiar voice cheered. I turned to see Rapunzel. "I hope this is what it feels like to be outside." She said dreamily.
"Outside? What do you mean." I blinked.
"Well... I've never really been outside." Rapunzel said shyly.
"Really?" I was amazed. "Not once?"
"N-no. My mother said the outside world was full of cruel people.
"Well she wasn't wrong. But I don't think it's necessary to lock you away like that." I frowned.
"It doesn't matter. Lets just enjoy our club time." Rapunzel smiled at me. Her hair was tied into a braid so not to get dirty.
"Yeah..." I said not actually wanting to drop the subject. We started repotting plants and chatting until I couldn't help but bring it back up. "So would your Mom let you go outside if you were with someone?"
She sighed. "I don't think so."
I felt sorry for Rapunzel. "So you have never left this school?"
"No." She finished a pot and started another.
"Do you want to?" I watered both out finished pots before moving them to another table.
"Very much." She bit her lip. "But Mother... mother would never let me."
"And you don't want to let her down." I finished, and Rapunzel shook her head.
"I see." I hummed softly, finishing another pot. "Well Rapunzel, you and I are a team now. So if you ever need help from me, just ask." I smiled at her.
"You got it." She smiled.
I stood with Quicksliver and several others at the starting line. "Ok losers! I don't want to see you slacking around on the field! You've all stretched so get ready to run some laps, Noobs!"
Quicksilver elbowed me lightly. "Hey princess. Think you can out run Herc this time?" I glanced down the line at a skrawny boy with red hair. Hercules.
"I did it last time. Why wouldn't I be able to this time?" I looked to my left. Lee Shang, looked ahead with such intensity the finish line might as well come to him. "He's the one I struggled to beat."
"Maybe so, princess. But I have a feeling that will change." Quicksilver winked at me.
"GO!" Couch Phil screamed and I bolted forward. I found me self in forth, behind Shang and Hercules... and of course Quicksliver. Pushing myself harder, I boosted myself forward and across the finish line. Hercules was right behind me. We both panted and had to wait to catch our breath.
"You're getting faster." I realized.
"I'm working out." He said in between pants.
"It shows." I grinned. "Why do you think you need to work out?"
"Well, let's just say I have my reasons." Herc avoided answering.
"AGAIN!" Couch Phil screamed. I sprinted around the track field a second time. This time I started to feel strange. My legs started to feel like jelly. "No slacking off this time, I want to see you at your all! AGAIN!"
This continued for another three laps. By the time we stopped, I was lightheaded and caked in dirt and sweat. "Drink this, princess." Quicksilver handed me a water. I took it and gulped it down greedily.
"So, where are you from anyway?" I asked after I finished the bottle.
"Somewhere." He smirked. "No where."
"No where." Morph mimicked, making me smile.
"Wow, tell me more." I chuckled.
"Sorry princess. No can do." He stood and stretched. "See ya later."
"Bye." I rolled my eyes. Sighing I decided to take advantage of the showers in the locker room. After all I was still covered in goo from lunchtime.
30 minutes after that I was in the Library, stamping another mountain of books higher the last one. It was my job to stamp every book that came in, and they were always coming in. Stacking books is Wilbur's job, so when I finished I took an armful of non-fiction and went to go find him, putting them on the shelves as I went.
"Hey Amy! Have you seen Wilbur?" Amy and I have had a lot to talk about... Mostly about how she used to travel with the Doctor, sometimes with her boyfriend Rory.
"No, I haven't seen him since he came in," She shrugged.
"Oh, ok," Just then, the door to the library slammed open, revealing Wilbur with a hose. "Wilbur? What is that?" Wilbur smiled mischievously, and pulled a lever on the nozzle of the hose. The hose started squirting yellow foam all over the place. I barely missed a beat, sliding under the cover of the book shelves, I screamed "WILBUR, TURN THAT OFF OR DIE!"
I heard him laugh harder and decided he chose the latter. "Wilbur! it's not ready yet! I told you!" Another boy with super spikey blonde hair jumped into the library and started wrestling Wilbur for the hose. The hose was now being jerked wildly, this caused the foam to hit the ceiling and start raining down on everyone.
"Lewis! Let go!" Wilbur fumbled the hose and it dropped to the floor. The hose in question started squirting foam everywhere, it slithered around on the floor like a snake. Lewis tackled the hose to the floor before pulling the lever and stopping the foam.
Slowly, everyone came out from their hiding places. "WILBUR ROBINSON!" Amy screamed, she was covered in foam and it dripped of her with every movement. "LEWIS... LEWIS!" Amy screamed probably not knowing the last kids full name.
"Uh oh," Wilbur tried to get up and slipped on the foam, landing back on the floor. Amy marched up to him, grabbed his ear and yanked him to his feet. She glared down at Lewis who was still holding the hose.
"What is going on here!?" Amy hissed.
"Lewis created a mixture thats can wash books without the ink running. I thought I'd test it out." Wilbur grinned.
"You knew it wasn't ready yet!" Lewis glared at Wilbur. "And besides, I still haven't worked out a proper amount yet! you can't just use buckets of the stuff!"
"Detention! That goes for both of you!" She pulled Wilbur out the door by his ears, Lewis quickly ran after them.
"Well... Guess we have to clean this up," Alice Kingsley said disapprovingly, she tried to get the foam off her black bow. Just then the beeping at the front desk alerted us that our shifts were over.
"Go, I'Il clean this up..." I mentally kicked myself for being so nice. It's not my fault Wilbur made a mess! "Just take care of the hose for me." She nodded and started to roll up the hose. I quickly texted Carrie to tell her I 'might' be late.
Skyler: Hey Carrie
Carrie: Sup, I still need your help in the stables.
Skyler: I know, I'll be there I swear. But...
Carrie:'But...'?
Skyler: *Sent an image* I have to clear up the library after some crazy science stuff happened. I might be late.
Carrie: Wow... that stuff is everywhere. Are you sure you can clean it up and meet me?
Skyler: I'm sure, a promise is a promise after all. And I just swore I'd be there.
Carrie: Well good luck :)
It was another hour before I finished cleaning the Library up. The foam turned to a fine dust on contact after it dried, so cleaning it off the ceiling was ok, it getting out of the rug was a nightmare. After putting everything away and clocking out I stretched and willed myself to help Carrie.
I climbed down the stairs and went outside, my day turning me into the walking dead. I arrived at the stables, and grabbed a broom. From the outside, the Stables are the size of a small shed, on the inside, it's four stories tall and 8 football fields wide. Stall after stall is crammed into the space, each one filled with a big animal used for various sports. It was my job to sweep the halls, clean the stall that Carrie takes out for a walk, and feed and water the animals here. The first job took about fifteen minutes, so I moved on to feeding the animals. Tyrus, while a great guy, he has the worst stable animal of all. His name is Spitfire, he's a dragon and his interest seems to include: Lighting my hair on fire, throwing fire at me, knocking the water bucket and once the "litter box" over my head, making my life miserable, and laughing heartily at all of the previous. I crept in, his giant green spikey back was facing me, so he hadn't seen me yet. I slowly and silently poured the food into his bowl, then grabbed the water and filled the water bucket.
I slowly started to back away, and a sob came from the dragon monster. This surprised me so much, I leaned on the gate. The padlock squeaked, Spitfire turned around, the flame in his eyes were ten times worse then they were before. "Sh-" He threw me against the opposite wall, then fire balls seemed to come from everywhere, all at once. The explosion knocked me against a corner, and left me limp. I Couldn't move and I was to drained of energy to do anything else. When all seemed lost an angel appeared.
"What did you do?" Carrie had her hands on her hips, she spoke sternly to Spitfire. "Come on, it time for your walk." I sat up and smiled, Carrie was incredible. I was blessed to have her in my life. I was saved. "Skyler, make sure to finish cleaning up his stall while I'm out." One look around the charred, destroyed room, part of which was still on fire, and you could feel my misery.
"..."
"Hello?" Carrie asked.
"..."
"Skyler?" Carrie asked again.
"I hate you."
I walked through the empty cafeteria, covered in bruises, burns and charcoal. The cafeteria was supposed to be empty, but one growl from my stomach told me I would at least have to check. I wondered up the spiral center, checking each of the many food counter. All of them were closed. "You do seem to be the type that gets them self into trouble, dontcha lass?" A familiar voice said jokingly behind be.
"Silver!" I turned and smiled.
"What are you doing here, at this ungodly hour?" Silver wiped his hands on his apron. I opened me mouth to answer and my stomach grumbled loudly. I blushed from embarrassment. "Well, well now. Looks like you'll be needing some food. Lucky for you, your friend Silver has his famous Bonzabeast stew cooking." He lead me back down the Italian themed spiral to a door on the bottom floor. I entered a dark circular room filled with pots and pans, something in the center looked to be cooking in... lava? The smell made my stomach grumbled again.
"Mr. Silver" A voice came from the doorway. I turned to see Captain America, or Steve Roger's dragging a boy with brown hair in a ponytail and brown outfit behind him.
"Mr. America, sir! Bringin' in such a fine and distinguished gent to grace my humble galley. Had l known, l'd have tucked in me shirt." Mr. Silver chuckled.
"This boy is Jim Hawkins." Rogers stated.
"Jimbo!" Silvers held out his hand warmly, not realizing his metal hand was made of knives, corkscrews and kitchen utensils. Jim glared at silvers hand before turning the glare to Silvers red eye. " Uh... Aw, now, don't be too put off by this hunk of hardware." Silver smiled and returned to his work. He started chopping veggies, squeezing something I didn't recognize into the soup, mincing some herbs with all the multiple uses of his cyborg arm. He started chopping leaks only to seemingly chop of his hand. "Whoa" he exclaimed I gasped and he jokingly showed his hand, chuckling at my reaction. These gears have been tough getting used to... but they do come in mighty handy from time to time." After throwing the leak into the pot, still humming, he picked up the pot and using a flame gun he let the fire lick the bottom and sides of the pot. He set the pot back down and taste tested. "Mmm! Here, now, have a taste of me famous bonzabeast stew." He passed Jim, Rogers and me a bowl of the stew. It was heaven.
"Amazing!" I ignore my stomach as it growled and dug in. Letting the stew fill my stomach and when I finished I sighed happily.
"Old family recipe" Silver bragged. He peeked over Roders shoulder and grabbed an eye from his stew. "Aah! ln fact, that was part of the old family!" He popes the eyeball in his mouth, making both me and Rogers grimace as Silver laughed heartily. "Oh, ho! l'm just kiddin', Captain sir!" Silver rubbed the tears from his eyes. "Uh, yeah, well... l'm nothin' if l ain't a kidder. Go on, Jimbo. Have a swig."
Jim grabbed a spoon and looked at it. Suddenly the spoon ate the stew, turned into a straw and slurped up the entire bowl. The straw giggled before turning into a familiar pink blob. "Morph!" Silver and I yelled.
"You jiggle-headed blob of mischief!" Morph hugged Silver after flying in a circle around him. "So that's who you was with!" Silver smiled toothaly at me.
"Wha-?" Jim smiled as Morph hugged his face. "Ha! What is that thing?
''What is that thing?'' Morph mimicked as a tiny Jim.
"He's a morph! Aw, he took a shine to me over the years I've worked here and we been friends ever since." Silver grinned as Morph excitedly flew around him.
"Mr. Silver," Roger's had had enough of the distraction, he was obviously here for a reason, and the reason didn't seem to be Mr. Silver's bonzabeast stew. "Jim will stay here in your charge."
Silver coughed. "Beggin' your pardon, sir, but-"
"Headmasters orders." Rodgers raised an eyebrow slightly, telling Silver that to argue would be pointless. "Jim has been caught skipping class and detention, as punishment, he will work here for the remainder of the semester. See to it Jim is kept busy." Rogers gave me a head nod, telling me it was time to go.
"Come on, Morph!" I set down my bowl and walked towards the door. "Thank you for dinner, Mr. Silver."
"My pleasure, little lass." Rogers and I left. "You seem to get around." Me. Rogers spoke, and it took me a few second to realize he was talking to me.
"Oh... uh, yeah! I seem to be in the right place at that right time." He nodded.
"Well that's never a bad thing. Goodnight Skyler" he gave me a small smile before casually putting his hands in his pockets and coolly walking away.
"Captain America knows my name!" I grinned. The grin fell as I realized a pink blob was missing. "Dang it Morph!" Marching back to the galley I found the pink blob sat on a counter. I signaled him to come to me as an interesting conversation started.
"So, headmaster's put you with me, eh?" It was Silver.
"Whatever." Jim's voice replied.
"Well, who be a humble cyborg to argue with a headmaster?"
"Yeah" Jim replied edgily. The sound of something being chopped up filled the room. "You know...these purps... they're kind of like the ones back home and the Benbow Inn. You ever been there?"
"I can't say as l have, Jimbo." Silver said in a strange tone.
"Come to think of it, just before l left... l met this old guy, who was, um... he was kind of looking for a cyborg buddy of his." Jim continued.
"ls that so?" Silver said sounding slightly more interested.
"Yeah. What was that old salamander's name? Oh, yeah. Bones...Billy... Bones?" Jim seemed to be digging hard.
"Bones? Bones?! Mm-mmm. T'ain't ringin' any bells. Must have been a different cyborg. There's a slew of cyborgs roamin' this part o' ta world!" Silver was quiet for a second. "Well Jimbo. I think you had better get yourself to bed, lad. This will be the last time you are able to rest for a while."
Morph lay on my bed full and happy. He snores slightly next to a couple trays of sushi we shared. I stood eating yogurt in my PJ's and listening to a very interesting song called Chicken Noodle Soup on a kids bop CD I found in Carrie's stuff.
I let it rain, and let it clear out
I let it rain, and let it clear out
I started dancing randomly with the music.
Chicken Noodle Soup. Chicken.
Chicken Noodle Soup. Noodle.
Chicken Noodle Soup with a soda on the side.
"Um..." Carrie stared from the doorway.
"Skyler?" Jules asked.
"Come join me." I threw my yogurt in the trash and grabbed their arms. The three of us started to awkwardly dance. It was weird, but we were all smiling and having more fun then I thought we would.
Chicken Noodle Soup. Chicken.
Chicken Noodle Soup. Noodle.
Chicken Noodle Soup with a soda on the side.
I let it rain, and let it clear out.
I let it rain, and let it clear out.
I let it rain, and let it clear out...
The song ended and we started cracking up. I might have come across the wrong way at first, but it seems these people were definitely my friends now. I looked at the time on my phone and froze. "I'MGOINGTOBELATE" I screamed and zipped off to class in my PJ's.
I walked up a long stone spiral staircase with a large center, large enough to have classrooms and single dorms tucked into it, and multiple balconies looking out into the woods and overlooking the castle. Across from every balcony lay a door to a small single person dorm room or classroom depending on which one you spiral stairs case lead me up five floors, and on the sixth I came to a classroom. The desks here were arranged in a circle, facing outward, each desk had a telescope sat next to it. Large open archways allowed students to look through the telescope easily. Rapunzel sat with her head leaning on her arms, dreamily looking out at the sky. Jack sat on his desk, his staff leaning against his shoulder.
I took the opportunity to look out the archway windows. A lake glimmered in the darkness of the night, reflecting the stars. there looked thing be something big on the lake, but in was too far away and it was too dark to make out. I saw a mountain range next to the lake and multiple rivers. Then there was the school and the three other turrets. I wondered what the rest of the school contained, and of course the mysterious three turrets. I kept looking until I found something that sent a chill down my spine. A grave yard. "That is so creepy!" I exclaimed.
"The graveyard?" Jim asked from across the room. "Yeah that's super creepy."
"One of the schools original creators is buried there. He died shortly after the school opened." Jack shrugged.
"All the other graves are centuries old, from when this used to be a castle." A girl with long brown hair and a purple dress added. "I'm Meg."
"Lovely." I grimaced. "I'm Skyler." I kept looking down the the graveyard. there was just something so off about that place. I felt like something down there was watching me. Shaking myself out of it I sat a desk as far away from the graveyard as possible. Dr. D entered the room and smiled at us.
"Thank you all for coming! I think you'll fine astronomy to be edulightening and encational." He coughed. "Erm, educational and enlightening. As the school commands every after hours class, I have to chose a student to be class representative and have them carry out certain responsibilities like locking the doors and checking the desks are in place every night. So... someone volunteer..." No one came up to volunteer. People started to exchange looks. I stood slowly with a sigh. Once again the feeling of being watched made me tense up. "Skyler! If I'm not mistaken. Wonderful!" Dr.D tossed me an extra set of keys, and I caught them at an inch before they hit my face. "Ok continuing on with the class, everyone grab a telescope and we'll start finding the famous Zodiac!"
An hour later, I set up all desks and locked the classroom. Finally,I walked back to my dorm. Sinking into my mattress I smiled. Just then, as a buzz from my pocket alerted me I had a text.
Rapunzel: Hey!
Skyler: What is the up friend?
Rapunzel: Lol. I was wondering if you could help me out in the Astronomy tower. I can grab my stuff the door is locked.
Skyler: As designated class door opener, It would be my honour.
I came back to the spiral staircase and to my confusion, I heard someone singing on a balcony nearby.
What is it like?
Out there where they glow?
Now that I'm older,
Mother might just
Let me go ...
Rapunzel, stood On a balcony, looking dreamily out at the sky again. I heard someone coming up the stairs and hid in the shadows of a classroom doorway., not because I was eavesdropping, I was just... curious.
Mother Gothel came up the stairs. "Made any friends, flower?" She smiled and gave Rapunzel a hug. Rapunzel shook her head and I wondered why she would lie to her mother like that. "Good," she patted her on the head. "Did you have a nice time in the book club?"
"Yes, I... I did, mother," She played with a strand of her hair.
"Really? And why is that?" Her mother held her close.
"I-I," she paused "I made a team," She smiled remembering my remark from earlier.
"Rapunzel, You said you didn't make any friends." Mother Gothel frowned.
"I know, mother but I was so excited to meet new people! And when Skyler and I were in the greenhouse-" her Mother stepped back.
"Greenhouse?" Rapunzel looked terrified. "Rapunzel! I KNEW that you couldn't be trusted alone!" She shook her head. "You said you would be careful! And now I hear that you've taken advantage of my kindness! I allowed you to join a safe inside club. And instead you join the gardening club, behind my back! RAPUNZEL!" Rapunzel looked crushed, but she didn't utter a word. "I've decided. You just arn't ready for the outside world. Rapunzel. You are never leaving this school." She looked stern. "Understand?"
"What happens after I graduate?" Rapunzel remained defiant.
"You will become my aid and then a perhaps a teacher," Rapunzel looked once at her mother and her expression fell.
"But..." Rapunzel trailed off.
"You will never leave this school," her mother finished. "Understood?"
"Yes, Mother"
Her mother actually started to sing, all about how she knew best and Rapunzel wasn't fit for the outside world. It was a load of horse crap. "Rapunzel, You will never leave this school, ever." Mother Gothel ran a hand through Rapunzel's long hair. "I will see you tonight, flower" Mother Gothel turned and left. I scrunched into the shadows as she passed and didn't come out until I heard her footsteps descending down the stairs.
Rapunzel had returned to the balcony. "Rapunzel?" She looked up and nearly slipped. "It's ok I won't tell anyone, I promise," She gulped and I slowly walked towards her. "Why do you listen to her like that? She's your Mother, not your prison guard," She slowly sat down on the balcony and looked completely defeated.
"She's my Mother. How can I not do as she says?" Easily, I don't. " I was supposed to find reasons to convince my mother I could handle myself. She allowed me to join a club and everything. But I disobeyed her, but joining a club that has a connected to the outside world. And now I will never leave this school again," She hugged her knees and I changed the subject.
"What were you singing about?" I asked sitting next to her.
"Every night on my birthday, I see floating lights from this window," this provoked more questions from me.
"You mean stars?" I replied slowly.
"No, I've charted stars, these are different" Rapunzel sighed.
"Ok, so you want to know what they are?" I asked.
"Desperately" she nodded.
"How long have you been at this school?"
"As long as I can remember," Rapunzel shrugged.
"Seriously?" I couldn't imagine staying in one building that long, no matter how big it was.
"Yes." She answer solemnly.
"Well one day, I'll just have to take you on an adventure." I stubbornly decided.
"What?" Rapunzel asked shocked.
"Yup, I've decided to take you on an adventure. I'm selfish so you have to come whether you want to or not." I grinned from ear to ear.
"Thank you," she smiled.
"Yeah," I smiled back, standing up I brushed myself off and offered her a hand. "Come on, let's go grab your stuff."
She took my hand and I helped her up. "Come on, let's go grab your stuff."
Together we walked up the tower and I unlocked the door. Grabbing her stuff, Rapunzel grinned and allowed me to lock the door. "Thank you, there's no way I would be able to do my math homework without this!" Rapunzel grinned and skipped down the stairs. I chuckled at the girl before something I could see from a nearby balcony caught my attention. The graveyard. The sensation that I was being watched creeped back.
Instintually, I ran onto the balcony and jumped so I was leaning dangerously over the side of the balcony. I heard a metalic sound, a jingling and watched as something fell sixteen stories down, catching the light and making a snapping sound on impact. I checked my belongings. Everything was there. I had to brainstorm for a whole minuted before
i realized the thing I dropped wasn't mine. I had dropped the Astronomy tower keys. And better yet. I had dropped them directly into the graveyard. A chill crawled down my spine. I was going to have to retrieve them.
