Chapter 2: Conflict with the teacher!

Spiker was still running away after Apple the TreeFox saw him beating up the wolves. He finally reached the school. He always got there earlier than everyone else so he could relax for a while.

After a while, more students arrived. The bell finally rang near 8:45am. His first class of the day was history. He hated his history teacher Mr. Boomerson. He was a grumpy armadillo wearing a dark blue teacher suit and dark blue pants. He would always pick on Spiker with questions like 'are you ready for the test I prepared specially for you today?' or 'I hope you have studied because we are having a big test today'. Spiker couldn't stand him.

As Spiker entered the classroom, Mr. Boomerson said (as Spiker expected):

"So, are you ready for your special test?" said Mr. Boomerson in his snooty voice.

"Why would I worry?" mumbled Spiker.

"I'm only warning you that this test is pretty tricky and hard, especially if you haven't revised."

"So what?"

"Don't get on my nerves, young man." Said Mr. Boomerson angrily "Unless you want to get an F right before you start."

Spiker just ignored him and he sat down at his desk. He was sitting near the corner of the room, near the entrance. Sonic's gang was sitting near the middle. Sonic was next to Tails, Knuckles next to Espio, Charmy next to Vector, Amy next to Tikal, Cream next to Cosmo and Shadow next to Silver.

"Alright class. This test will be on what we saw last week. But I suppose you all know about it." Said Mr. Boomerson sternly, staring coldly at Spiker. "No talking during the test, and especialy, NO CHEATING!"

"For an armadillo, he sure is a GRUMPY armadillo." Thought Spiker.

Mr. Boomerson handed out the test and every student started working. When they were about half way done, the wolves Spiker had beaten up came in the classroom all covered with bandages.

"What in the world has happened to all of you?" Asked Mr. Boomerson in a shocking tone.

"It's not our fault, we were on our way to school and wanted to talk with Spiker, but then he started punching and kicking us!" said one of the wolves innocently. Of course he were lying.

Mr. Boomerson couldn't believe his ears. He turned slowly to Spiker and said in a slow voice:

"My goodness! What is going on with you, Spiker? Do you really think..." Mr. Boomerson wa interrupted by Spiker.

"YOU DAMN LIARS!" bursted Spiker. "They were the ones who were starting to attack me for no reason! I was only defending myself!"

"Spiker, calm down!" said Mr. Boomerson trying to stop Spiker from attacking the wolves again. "There is no need to fight!"

Spiker glared at the wolves with a deathly look, but the wolves just smirked. That was too much for Spiker. He pushed Mr. Boomerson away and ran to the wolves, ready to punch them with his spiky fist. Mr. Boomerson grabbed Spiker. But right when the teacher had his grip on him, Spiker tried to punch Mr. Boomerson instead. Mr. Boomerson rolled up into a ball to protect himself from Spiker's blow. But Spiker stopped and said:

"I don't hit anybody who can't fight back"

Mr. Boomerson then rolled slowly to his desk and uncurled himself. He started writing something, walked slowly to Spiker and handed him a note.

"Go to the principal's office and give him this note. You'll go to detention right after today's class."

The wolves snickered at Spiker, but it didn't last.

"And as for you..." started Mr. Boomerson. "You also get a detention but on the next day, so that you and Spiker do not get into another conflict. And you'll take the test next time I see you."

The wolves just pouted and went to their seats. Spiker then left the classroom.

Meanwhile, Apple was at her locker getting books for her next class. She could hear some mumblings from the corridors.

"Why am I like this? What is wrong with me?"

Apple looked around, but no one could be seen, until she saw the young brick red haired teenager, shuffling his way through the corridor. She decided to listen a bit more without being seen by Spiker.

"No one to talk to. No one who could be friendly with me. I can't live like this." Spiker mumbled, looking down with shame.

Apple hid behind the corner of the corridor. After what she herd, could finally understand why he was always fighting. She wanted to talk to him, but what would be his reaction? She finally decided to go and talk to Spiker and started walking towards the intersection. But when she went around the corner, she bumped into Spiker and they both fell on the floor.

"I'm sorry, I wasn't paying attention on where I was going." Spiker said.

Then, to his supprise, he recognised the cherry furred fox he saw at the begining of the day. He then stepped away slowly and started running away like last time.

"Hey, wait!" Apple called. And as she did, Spiker stopped running and turned around.

Apple then stepped towards Spiker, who was worried what was going to happen to him.

That's it for now! Poor Spiker, he sure isn't lucky with the others. I'm keeping the rest for the suspense! Anyway, I hope you liked this chapter and don't forget to read and review!
