By now, Mrs. Pine had all her little victims on the lined up on the right side of the classroom. Ron was the tallest of all the kids, even Hatchet, who was muscular for his young age. Alot of the kids were scared because of what the horrible Mrs. Pine would do. Hatchet was a little scared, but Chris just smiled and showed no fear for Mrs. Pine to smell. Suddenly, Mrs. Pine started walking up and down the line of students. Her bushy, frowning eyebrows showed that she was pepper mad.
"So," she began fiercely. "One of you rugrats decided to pull a prank on me! Hmmmph! I can't say I'm surprised! It's been happening throughout all my years of teaching!" A couple students giggled, which Mrs. Pine didn't hear. "Let's get something straight because I think you're all old enough to know. When you get to middle school in 6th grade," She paused for a second and looked down at Chris. "There will be even more dumb, nuisant children that will pull pranks on teacher everytime they get a chance!" She started walking away from Chris as he shrugged his shoulders. "So now, I'm at a point. Either one of you squeals, or," She glances at the clock, which read 11:00 a.m. and continued. "Recess will be cancelled until someone does!" The kids looked a little scared as she continued. When I find the child who put that rodent in the applesauce, the innocent children will play. The naughty boy, girl, or other," She glanced at Chris as she said "other". "...........will sit in a chair and stare at the blank wall for the next 6 recesses!" The whole class gasped as they looked at the dull, incredibly boring wall area that had no color, posters, or anything fun. A dull chair was facing this wall.
I don't wanna sit there for 6 recesses, Chris thought. I have to squeal on myself or my classmates and I won't have any recess until someone does! I'm the one who did it, not Hatchet, Ron, or that kid who eats glue and sits by himself. I'm their only hope. Finally, Chris raised his hand and said something.
"Mrs. Pine, I have something to say," he started. The class gasped and Mrs. Pine smiled and walked over to him.
"Well, Christopher," she said looking down on him. He didn't like it when people called him that. "Do you have something to share with the rest of the class? I'm sure they'd love it if you confessed to your crime so they could have recess, while you stare at a blank wall!" Chris then began his speech in a nervous way.
"Well, I-I just don't see why we got blamed for the applesauce-rat thing," Chris started, acting innocent. Mrs. Pine and his fellow classmates listened. "All we did was laugh cuz it was funny, b-but it doesn't mean that we did it. It could've been one of those other "kinsergarmers"." Mrs. Pine noticed he mispronounced "kindergartener". She knew it was typical for his age. Chris put his head down and looked back up at Mrs. Pine with an innocent face. "We all like you alot, Mrs. Pine. If we didn't, then it would be us who pulled the prank. Maybe the people that don't like you did it. The point is that..........w-we're innocent."
The entire class was speechless. Mrs. Pine couldn't believe her hairy ears. She was somewhat impressed by Chris's monologue.
"Well," Mrs. Pine said. "I didn't think I'd ever say this, but.............you're a good boy for standing up for your classmates." Chris started to smile. "I guess at this point, it doesn't matter if I got covered in applesauce or saw a rodent. You actually had enough pride to stand up to me and prove your point just because you wanted recess back. You know what, I'm so impressed, that I've decided to let everyone have their childish recess back! Go play!" The kids started cheering and patted Chris on the back as Mrs. Pine let the kids go out to play on the playground. Before Chris and Hatchet could go outside, Ron stood in front of them. He looked at Chris with a tiny grin.
"Good job on geting recess back, but you're still dumb and stupid, Shrimp!" He ran outside to play. Hatchet walked with Chris and just glared at the big boy.
"Who cares what he says?" Hatchet started. "He's just jealous cuz he didn't save recess like you did!"
"Thanks," Chris said. "I'm happy that Mrs. Pine doesn't hate us anymore, at least I think she doesn't." He sat on the swing as Hatchet took the one next to him.
"She probably got so impressed, she has happy things growing in her head!" Hatchet said. "Maybe we'll get to do alot more fun stuff this year!"
Chris nodded his head. "I still can't wait for 1st grade! Maybe this year'll go by faster so we can get to 1st grade and eat in the coffin-teria!"
"I know!" Hatchet said as he hi-fived his buddy. I wish I had a time machine, Chris thought. I could go to 1st grade and become a man and eat in the cattleteria! Too bad I don't have one. Im forced to wait like everyone else.
I have a time machine! HAHA!! Lol anyway, in chappie 7, the kiddies will be in 1st grade at last! Will their teacher be another Mrs. Pine? Will they enjoy the cafeteria? Who will they meet next? Find out next time! :D :D :D :D
