Chapter Three: A Tapu's Wrath

When I get to Art Class, the room is already halfway filled, even though it's in the same room that I was in last year. Chances are, I'm with the same teacher as well. Not that I mind too terribly, as nothing was exactly wrong with my teacher - it's the classmates I'm most worried about. I don't think I could stand another semester with Zygarde, and I certainly wouldn't be able to deal with Reshiram. It's bad enough I'm already stuck with Tapu Koko...

Speaking of him, I already see that his bag is thrown up front, the chair in front of it not pushed in. He must've gone to the bathroom or back into the hallway to chat with Hoopa. For all I care, he can get lost in the hallway and never find his way back to class. I notice Volcanion sitting in the back of the room, near the window. He's got one hand on his cheek, his elbow on the table. He doesn't seem very happy. Although I'm not in the best of moods either, I decide to sit next to him and discuss what's going on - that is, if he'll let me do so at all.

""What's up with the face, Vol?" I ask as I put my bag down.

Volcanion turns to me, glaring. "Magearna. Magearna takes this class..." he mutters.

"She does?" I blink. Magearna regularly sits with us, and she never told us that she was going to be taking Art Class this semester. I know that she's shy and tends to keep to herself most of the time, but she usually has the decency to tell us if she's taking the same classes we are.

""It was a last minute schedule change." Volcanion continues. "She wanted to take it in the afternoon, but the class was full, so she got moved to the morning class. Meaning she has it right now."

He gestures to Magearna's bookbag, which is sitting right behind us, the pink lily charm on the side easily able to be seen.

"I see." I say, sighing. As if this class wasn't going to be dramatic enough. At least I'm sitting next to a friend, and not some idiot like Zygarde, but still. I heard Hoopa takes this class too, so yeah. Fun for me...

Just then, the door opens, revealing Tapu Koko and Hoopa, back from whatever they were doing. Both of them have a seat up front. Since we're in the back of the room, they don't even see us, which is fine by me. Magearna follows shortly after, taking her seat behind Volcanion and beginning to get her supplies out for class. Meanwhile, I get out my notebook and pen, waiting on our teacher to arrive.

Only for something to splatter on my desk. A wad of grey, wet material. I know full well what it was, and the digusting person who put it here.

"Spit ball! Spit ball!" Hoopa giggles, Tapu Koko having a straw in his mouth.

"You guys, what are you, two?! I thought we would have been past the stage of doing this - grow up!" Volcanion beats me to the chase, crossing his arms.

"We can spit spit balls at any age!" Hoopa giggles. "No one ever said there was a cap!"

"Yep - it's still fun...even now!" Tapu Koko grins.

Volcanion glares at the two.

"Next time, it won't be so funny, because I'll toss this Bio book straight at your face!" he growls, holding his Biology Book up against his chest, ready to throw it as soon as Tapu Koko would let another spit ball fly. "See if I won't do it. I don't care about a suspension. One more year and we're done here anyway!"

"You toss that book and I'll throw this chair!" Tapu Koko becomes suddenly very angry. "We're just spitting spit balls, and you wanna toss a book at me? A book that could bust my head wide open?! What's wrong with you?!"

"Then don't spit the spit ball and you won't have that problem!" Volcanion yells. "Besides, it's not any more dangerous than you and Hoops spitting spit balls, full of your nasty saliva and germs!"

"I shouldn't have that problem either way!" Tapu Koko gets up, which I sigh at. I guess that one book I read about all of the Legendaries the other day wasn't wrong in saying that Tapu Koko has a hair-trigger temper...

"Right, you shouldn't because you shouldn't be acting like this!" Volcanion yells. "Now sit down, unless you're planning to fight with me, which is just fine! Like I said, I couldn't care less about a suspension!"

Tapu Koko does not sit down, which causes Volcanion to get up as well. As his friend, I would tell Volcanion to not bother wasting his time with Tapu Koko, but I know that he's like me in the fact that once his mind is set to do something, nothing's going to stop him. As such, I simply watch as the two glare each other down.

"Wanna fight?!" Volcanion yells, picking up his chair.

Tapu Koko doesn't answer, walking over to the table, a glare plastered on his face. He then flips over the entire table, sending both Volcanion and my supplies flying onto the floor, as well as Lugia's supplies, as she was sitting at our same table. This time, I'm angered as well, since my supplies is now all over the place because Tapu Koko chose to lose his temper over some dumb spit balls!

"What the f-!" I barely stop myself from cursing, clenching a fist as I try to stop myself from getting out of hand. It's only the second day of class and I should control myself a bit more so that I don't get so many suspensions. Even though I don't exactly care about my success, if we were to be expelled from this school I have no idea what Arceus might. I'd rather not find out if I can avoid it.

"REALLY?! KNOCKING DOWN EVERYONE''S SUPPLIES?! WHAT DID THEY DO TO YOU, HUH?!" Volcanion shouts. "HOW ABOUT I DO THIS, JUST BECAUSE I'M MAD AND I FEEL LIKE IT!"

He picks up his chair and hurls it straight at Tapu Koko. He barely dodges it, the chair soaring above the other tables and right into the chalkboard, spinning a bit before landing on the floor, on its side.

"Really, was I supposed to be scared?" Tapu Koko taunts. "Oh, what a scare you gave me - NOT! This one's actually going to hit~"

He picks up a chair and throws it at Volcanion. It falls just short of his face and onto the table, rolling onto its side and hitting the floor. This only causes Volcanion to throw it back. It misses again and hits the chalkboard, this time knocking it right off its hangers and onto the ground.

By this point, the fight has caught the attention of everyone in the room. A few are even chanting 'fight fight fight', while others, like myself, are only able to watch as chairs keep being thrown, knocking everything in the classroom around. Bookshelves, books, papers, even the teacher's desk are now in disarray.

...Until the teacher comes in. Sure enough it's the same one from last year, who is female, her black hair in a bun.

"EXCUSE ME! GENTELMEN! TO THE OFFICE. NOW!"

"FORGET THAT OFFICE! I'M NOT GOING!" Tapu Koko yells, now standing by the teacher's desk, which is ruined.

Just then, I see two deans of the school rush in, helping the teacher grab Volcanion and Tapu Koko, leading them to the office...

The classroom is now dead silent, so silent that I can hear a toilet being flushed in the restrooms that are across from our classroom. It's at that moment that someone walks in. Judging by the marks on her face and bright pink hair, I can tell it's Tapu Lele.

"Sorry for being tardy, miss..."

The teacher, who looks noticeably frustrated by now, sighs. "Class is cancelled today so that I can pick up my room. Enjoy your free day."
