Chapter 20- Lunchtime

Hannah sat at her table with Rouge, she was shaking and continuously glanced over her shoulder.

"Your teacher tried to dissect you?" Rouge asked.

"I'm scared!" Hannah said, "I wanna go home!" She began to sob into her hands.

Meanwhile…

Sonic and Tails walked in the cafeteria and sat down at an empty table, "I can't wait until this day is over." Sonic said, "The sooner I'm safe at home the better."

"Actually… since you live with Liz you're never really safe." Tails pointed out.

"Good point." Sonic said.

Then Shadow and Knuckles came in and sat at their table, "Science class was awful!" Shadow shouted.

"Why what happened?" Sonic asked.

"Our teacher tried to dissect me and Hannah!" he shouted, "It was horrifying!"

"Lucky you. Math class was boring." Sonic said, obviously not paying attention.

"Did you hear what I just said? We almost died!" Shadow said angrily.

"Mel took over Spanish class." Tails said, also ignoring Shadow, "She had the teacher in a choke hold before we could find her necklace."

"What necklace?" Knuckles asked.

"Mel turns evil without her necklace." Tails explained.

"Well, here she comes… and she has company." Shadow, who realized nobody cared about his near death experience, said pointing behind Sonic.

They turned around to see Mel coming in with Komodo… but Liz wasn't there.

Then suddenly an explosion was heard from the kitchen and Liz came out with her hair singed, "Whoa… that was cool!" she said.

One of the cafeteria ladies came out, "Thanks for all your help Liz, you really helped us improve our cooking." She said.

"Thanks Gladice." Liz said.

The boys stared at their food and pushed it away, "I'll see you guys later." Sonic said, then he hid under the table.

Liz went over to her friends who were staring at her, "So, where should we sit?" Liz asked.

"Who needs to sit? Let's find Sonic!" Komodo said pulling yo-yos out of her pockets.

"I concur!" Liz said pulling off her necklace.

The two ran out of the cafeteria together.

Sonic peeked out from under the table, "See how dangerous it is for me here?" Sonic said.

Mel went over and sat with the girls.

The bathroom…

Dana stood leaning on the sink, "C'mon Amy! Come out!" She said.

"No! I'm not coming out!" Amy called from one of the stalls.

"There's no one else here! I just want to see what you look like!" Dana said.

Amy unlocked the door and stepped out. She was wearing a skintight black dress, black lipstick, black high heeled boots, and spiked bracelets, "I feel… strange." Amy said.

"What are you talking about? You look great!" Dana said, "C'mon, let's go to lunch."

Amy followed Dana out of the bathroom and down the hall, suddenly they heard screams from the cafeteria, glass shattering, and something very hard smashing into the wall.

Sonic ran out screaming followed by Liz and Komodo who were covered in cafeteria food.

Sonic spotted Amy and stopped, staring at her, "Whoa…" he said.

Then Liz and Komodo tackled him.

Amy and Dana ignored Sonic's screams of pain and went into the cafeteria.

There was glass all over the floor and a hole in one of the walls but nobody seemed phased.

The two of them sat with the other girls, "Whoa Amy! Nice getup!" Rouge said.

"Thanks." Amy said.

Hannah was still crying. Then there was a loud explosion from the hall and Liz and Komodo came back into the cafeteria coughing.

"PLEASE LEAVE THE BUILDING IN AN ORDERLY FASHION!" Liz screamed after a nasty coughing fit.

Everyone stared at them for a moment, then the alarm went off and the sprinklers came on.

"Liz, what did you do?" Tails asked.

"RUN GOD DAMMIT! DO YOU ALL WANT TO DIE?" Komodo screamed.

All the students ran out the emergency exits but their friends stayed, "Where's Sonic?" Amy demanded.

"We lost him in the smoke." Liz said, "But be assured we won't be having Science class for awhile."

Shadow fell to his knees and screamed, "THANK YOU GOD!"
