I felt I just wrote my life away... Again. :P
Chapter 22: The Twelfth Day; Lunch Block
My right hand, my poor much needed right hand! It was now wrapped in a ball of bandages – which meant that I couldn't write for the time being, I couldn't fight without my right hand, I couldn't hold a book properly without my right hand, and I couldn't even think about playing video games with it now!
I blame Laguz for this, even if she did apologize profusely afterwards!
"There you are, Chris," the nurse, properly named Nurse Joy, announced. "Good as new. Just make sure you do not do anything with that hand so it can heal to its fullest in two weeks, okay?"
"Thank you Nurse Joy," I said before grumbling under my breath out the room (Of course, it felt awkward to open the door with my left hand).
"How's your hand," the first, and only person, to ask me as soon as I came out the nurse's office.
"It hurts still," I told Wonder. "Nurse Joy told me to stay out of trouble for the next two weeks so it can heal as soon as possible."
"That's good then," she smiled.
I smiled, it was kind of cute to see Wonder smile like that. "Come on, let's go eat." We walked in silence together as we made our way to the cafeteria; although, I couldn't understand why Wonder looked so sad along the way.
"Man, this is tough," Laguz panted. "But if my hero can do it, then so can I!" With a grunt, she bought her Ragnell up to her face and slashed at a nearby practice dummy; it cut apart easily into two as the cotton balls inside started floating away with the wind. Laguz sat down as she put her prized sword down. She was already tired after about eleven minutes of practice. Not that she wasn't athletic, but the sword required so much strength to use that it quickly drained her.
"How does he do it?" She thought to herself with her eyes closed. She can remember the times she watched Ike fight in brawl matches, yet he doesn't break a sweat and holds it like a purse with one hand! "I wish he had given me an instruction manual for this." Opening her eyes once more, she suddenly jumped; just realizing she had company.
"Did we scare ya?" Sheri joked.
"Not cool, Sheri," Laguz retorted.
"Sorry for dropping in on you, Laguz," the purple chameleon next to Sheri, named Espio, apologized. "But I was keeping an eye on you and..."
"Creeper," Laguz interrupted.
Espio rolled his eyes, but continued on. "As I was saying, I was keeping an eye on you and I wanted to know if you can throw this ninja star?" Espio took a single, silver, shiny, pointy ninja star from behind him and flashed in front of the red Yoshi.
"Anyone can throw it," Laguz taunted; eagerly snatching the ninja from him.
"Good," Espio complimented. "Now throw it at the tree way over there," he pointed to a very distant tree. "You must throw straight onto the bark of the tree."
"But that's so far!"
"But I thought you said this will be easy." Espio smirked.
"It is," Laguz defended. "Just watch me!" Espio and Sheri nodded. Sheri disappeared in a puff of smoke and instantly reappeared right next to the very distant tree.
"That was so cool," Laguz yelped.
"Focus, Laguz."
"Sowwie Espio." Laguz squinted her eyes, adjusting her hand to match where the tree was located. Not a sound could be heard, except for the slow moving wind. She reared her hand back, gave a battle cry, and let the star fly!
Well, let it fly backwards at least. Laguz just stood there, feeling dumb, while Espio sighed with his eyes closed. Just shortly was when Sheri appeared in another puff of smoke, "Well, she missed 'that' tree altogether, but she did manage to hit the other tree behind you, Espio."
Espio looked at his apprentice with his arms crossed, not speaking a word. He then looked at Laguz with a sharp gaze; definitely deep in his thoughts. Laguz gave her best puppy dog eyes she could, for whatever reason Espio may be thinking about.
"Close enough," Espio shrugged. "Laguz, do you want to learn the ways of the ninja?"
In the next instant, Laguz fainted. Sheri and Espio were about to help her up, but in yet another instant, Laguz jumped for joy – completely accepting Espio's offer with so much enthusiasm that it even rivaled Child's enthusiasm when one of her favorite stories were updated.
Not one of the three conceptualized the fact that they were being watched. And considering who it was might surprise you: Bowser Junior himself was watching with observant eyes the whole time. He was just passing by when he heard something being sliced apart and he found Laguz using the Ragnell like almost a professional. Spying on others was something Bowser Junior would never or hardly ever do, but he decided to make an exception today. There was just something about this girl and her power that just seemed to... Fascinate him.
He shook his head violently; whatever this feeling was, it better stop. "Weird-o girl," he said lightly.
Football and basketball weren't exactly the school's preferred sport (Unlike other schools) compared to baseball, tennis, and soccer, but it did have its fans nevertheless and some actually enjoyed to see pain inflicted onto others without getting detention for it.
Such fans would include Jada, whose boyfriend is the the team's captain (Much to Bowser's dismay), also named Quinn. TSO didn't so much like football as much as baseball, but he did like to see his cousin sack a few of the players. Of course, Marioliza there as well, who was having an intense show-and-tell and discussion with Jada over which anime was the best of all time, Vinny was never too far from ML so he was there, and Child was here as well because she liked to be around her best friends, TSO and Vinny.
Vinny couldn't understand a thing about dark anime or whatever Jada and ML were talking about, but he did enjoy Child's company as they were discussing something random, which they tend to do a lot. TSO was cheering Daisy on as she continued to epically sack another poor sucker down with help from Dash and Quinn, resulting that sacked player an injury. "Poor Bowser," TSO commented.
"Boy, I can't wait for baseball season," TSO ranted on. "I was thinking about joining the baseball team! What do you two think?"
"That sounds like a terrific idea," Child agreed.
"Go for it," Vinny encouraged. The three looked over to ML and Jada for their support, but since they were still having an engaging discussion on anime still, TSO and the others jet let them be.
"I will then," TSO proclaimed, standing up as he was getting into his speech. "And when I do, I will become a legend!" Child clapped for TSO, unsure of what to think; Vinny muttered something under his breath and coughed.
"What did you say, Vinny?"
"...Nothing..."
"Hi guys!"
"Champ," Child exclaimed, "How are y..."
"Watch out!"
"What?" Champ had no time to react when the stray football, heading straight for his head, came in contact with his head. It did not take long for Champ to start seeing stars and then ultimately losing conscious on the comfortable grass. Everyone immediately ran up to Champ and did a quick spot check to make sure he was alright.
"He's fine," Jada announced. "Just knocked out for the time being."
"All thanks to Quinn," Dash grumbled.
"It wasn't my fault," he defended. "The receiver completely missed the ball!"
"Excuse me for missing, Mr. Bad Quarterback," Daisy yelled.
"Knock it off! All of you," Donkey Kong bellowed. "This was an accident and no one is to blame." The three football players immediately fell silent. "Someone should take him the nurse's office though."
"I'll do it," TSO immediately volunteered, holstering Champ on his back. Child and Vinny followed him.
Will rubbed his hands together; Ace and Rugtugba found it very odd and suspicious.
"Planning something evil," Rugtugba asked.
"No."
"World domination," Ace then asked.
"Of course not," Will defended. "I'm just excited to try something new here since I'm an awesome water and ground type now!"
"Yeah, that is true: You're a double type now. So what do you have planned?"
"This: Muddy Water!" Suddenly from beneath the trio, murky water immediately jetted up from the ground, quickly forming into a giant tidal wave.
"Oh snap," Ace shouted, riding alongside Will and Rugtugba on top the wave.
"Woo," Will screamed happily, obviously liking his new power.
"Aw yeah, might as well make the best of this," Rugtugba stated as he jumped from the top and used his otter feet to awesomely surf the wave.
"This is awesome," Will cried happily, spreading his arms up and wide – feeling like he was king of the world.
"This is insane," Ace shouted.
"Land-ho captain," Rugtugba shouted, "Obstacle at seven o' clock!" It was true, the three of them were about to collide with the side of the school.
"You heard him, Will! Stop the water," Ace demanded.
"Um, there's a funny thing about that," Will started. "I don't know how to stop it..."
"Oh for the love of..." Ace never finished his sentence for the three of them crashed straight into the school. It wasn't like it tore down the wall, but it did fling Ace through a window while Rugtugba and Will fell to the ground.
Ace fell face first into the cold, hard, unforgiving floor.
"Whoa buddy, you alright there?" Someone asked while helping him up.
"Yeah, I think so... Mr. West?"
"No, not Mr. West, Frank West," he grinned with his shiny teeth. "Fancy meeting you here! Most would use the door, but I like your style." Ace felt his face heat up – getting compliments from one of his heroes was definitely cool.
"Say, didn't I hear that you were eager to join my class the other day?"
"Yes definitely!"
"Well consider yourself enrolled, Ace."
As Ace jumped for joy, the door the classroom opened. "Hi, is this photography class?"
"Why yes it is... Ms. Bayleef Ketchum right?"
Did Ace just hear Frank West correctly?
Meanwhile with Rugtugba and Will, they did not get much of a warm welcome like Ace had. In fact...
"So you think it is cool to attack two sophisticated ladies like that?"
"Look here," Rugtugba snapped, "We already apologized for accidentally crashing into you, but I think you two are taking it way too seriously!"
"Says you," the pink starfish snapped in some weird Konsai tone. "You two did that on purpose!"
"You two are weird," Will commented.
"How dare you," the taller human with radical pink hair snapped. "Now you call us weird!"
"Nice job Will,"Rugtugba sighed.
"You two are gonna pay for this!" The two girls stood in their fighting position.
"I don't think they want to listen to us," Rugtugba declared.
"Well then, only one way to settle this." Will also pumped himself for a fight. "Plus now I get to see what other awesome moves I may have!"
"You aren't being serious, are you?"
"What's wrong there, otter boy? Too scared to take us women on?"
"No but..."
"What a baby!"
Rugtuguba tried, he really did try to keep his cool on, but they were pushing it. "Fine, you asked for it!"
"Wait, stop!" Suddenly, a little boy with brown hair and a yellow starfish appeared between the two groups.
"Claus? Starfy? What are you two doing here?"
"This is ridiculous," Claus stated, "These two made an honest mistake, yet you two want to let your fists speak for yourselves. Geez Kumatora and Starly, get a grip will ya?"
The two hot-headed girls looked at each other, then hatefully at the boys. "Fine," Kumatora spat, crossing her arms. "We'll let it slide this time."
"Oh thank goodness," Rugtugba sighed in relief. Without another word, the two girls stormed off.
"Well that stunk," Will huffed. "I was just getting ready to see what else I can do."
"Wow really, Will?"
Rugtugba properly thanked Starfy and Claus for coming to their rescue. As they walked off however, Rugtugba did not think that would be the last time they would encounter them.
And he was right, Kumatora and Starly were already planning to ambush another day. They were not bullies, but they were definitely hot-headed and vengeful; Rugtugba and Will may have gotten away with it this time, but soon...
The roof of the school, a pretty quiet place to relax if you weren't going to the garden. Not much to do here but simply watch the clouds up above – or possibly think about certain consequences for your actions.
"I felt bad for doing it too, but I had to get it off my chest somehow, someway, you know bro?"
"I guess," was all he said as he continued to watch the clouds. "You know this kind of stuff isn't exactly my cup of tea."
"True," I agreed. "But I guess I just had to tell it to someone else, right? You know, trust and that kind of stuff."
"I suppose."
I sighed openly, I was beginning to regret telling Wonder my real feelings for her, my feelings of us only being good friends, but the truth was that...
I liked Zeena.
"I just hate breaking a girl's heart," I muttered. "Doesn't feel right."
Michael nodded, probably thinking the same thing. He wouldn't want to disappoint his girlfriend, Kirlia, in any way possible.
Truthfully, I now only see Wonder as a friend. Of course I will admit that I used to have feelings for her, but Zeena... She just... Makes me happy to just be around her. It's complicated really to explain why she does makes me happy when I see her face, or rather the hair that covers most of her face, but... I don't know. I know for a fact that I really like her is all.
"But one fact stinks," I continued to tell Michael. "People would shun a weird couple like us – except maybe our friends. They don't take kindly to different species pairings."
Michael shrugged, he was glad he didn't have issues like me.
"I just wished," I started. "I wasn't so nervous to tell her."
The two of us continued to look up at the sky, not really saying much more to each other. At one moment, I looked around near the door to the roof. I could have sworn I heard the door shutting... I started to think that it was Zeena that was here with us, but what are the odds that would happen?
My brother and I just continued to lay on our backs and watch the clouds; for some reason, all the clouds looked like Zeena to me (Which doesn't make sense to me). I was still stuck on that species issue in my mind though, if only I took the chance to be a human once again a long time ago then things would have been different.
"Incoming, Chris," Michael pointed up with his bone. I chuckled as I opened my mouth wide and took a bite of a delicious taco.
"What has gotten into this world when now we have tacos falling from the sky?"
"And that's how I do that!"
"Wow Mech, these are some pretty good tacos," Champ complimented (Who seemed to have recovered rather quickly from his head injury).
Mech is a cool looking gray robot with yellow eyes. He has a black M on his head and has three colorful buttons on his body with a door handle to show that he has an oven attached to himself. Oh yeah, he has a gun attached to his left arm – in case you missed it.
This humorous, yet accident-prone robot can do more than just cook your food in his oven, he can also make tacos rain from the sky any day, anytime, and anywhere. And who knew that he was also an author at heart, one of the superb authors who wrote "Paper Chopper" that makes other stories look like little children books compared to his super long stories.
"Paper Chopper" wasn't just a story he made up, it was also a story based on the adventure of one of his best friends, Chopper. He is a spherical shaped lime green creature with skinny arms and white gloves with cuffs on his hand (Which are bigger than that of a normal human being). He typically wears green shoes, pretty small, and has two antennas. If you didn't know any better, you would think tat it was Kirby in a different costume. And if you ever meet him, you would think that Kirby and him were siblings since they both have striking resemblance of inhaling food, very bad singing, neither physically strong, and like to run around. But the humorous Chopper just simply likes to enjoy himself and life as he goes, not to mention he goes to save the world a couple of times too.
And Mech was wondering where his little buddy ran off to, hopefully he didn't run into trouble. "Hey, none of you have seen where Chopper ran off to have you?" All three, Child, TSO, and Champ, shook their heads.
"Who is Chopper anyway?" TSO asked, munching on his taco.
"Didn't you read the long profile of his up there?" Champ retorted, munching on his taco.
"Didn't you just break the fourth wall?" Child exclaimed, munching on her taco.
"Didn't know you could do that?" Mech said honestly, accidentally firing a bullet from his gun. "Uh-oh, I hope I didn't accidentally shoot someone..."
"Only one way to find," TSO said, leading the group in the direction of the stray shot. Shortly, they came across a girl... With a hole going right through her pink striped hat.
"Mech, you shot her hat," TSO informed.
He panicked and profusely apologized to the girl. "I am really sorry for that! Sometimes I can't control when and where my guns shoots at!"
"No, it's fine," she reassured, looking at him with a grin. "This can get fixed easily."
If Mech had a mouth, he would have sighed a huge relief; at the same time though, he felt his circuits speed up to high speeds. So fast that Champ noticed really tiny sparks coming from behind Mech.
"Uh Mech, you okay there?"
Mech didn't answer him back, he was too fixed on her. She looked pretty with her hat, but she looked dazzling without it. Her pink hair just flowed down perfectly along her purple body (Thank goodness it wasn't Flurrie). This was the Vivian he heard much about, and he had to admit, she was very pretty beautiful – maybe even just beautiful.
So beautiful, in fact, that Mech didn't know what to say and just kept staring at her. It was beginning to creep her out, "Well, um, it was nice meeting you, Mech," she said before disappearing into the ground.
Mech still didn't move, in which worried the other three. TSO decided to do a spot check on him. "Yep, he's paralyzed. His circuits are operating in such high speeds that he can't do a single action."
"How do we fix him?" Child asked.
"Well, I could try to reroute his circuitry, give him a reboot, or possibly..." Suddenly TSO fell down on Mech and Champ and Child were forced down as well.
"Mech, there you are! You have to help me now!"
Mech blinked a few times before comprehending what was going on. "Is it you-know-who?"
Chopper nodded, but was quickly knocked off before he could do anything. "My fairest prince!"
"Ack," was all Chopper could say before getting pelted with kisses.
"Is that Luvbi?" Champ asked the obvious question.
"Yes," Mech answered. "But I have to find a way to get him out of this before the bell rings..."
The bell rung.
"Oh fudge," Child complained. The others could only watch as they saw Luvbi carry off her 'prince' to the sky, and probably to their next class.
"Well that stinks," TSO commented.
"Maybe we can help him in his next class?" Champ suggested. "What is his next class anyway?"
"I think he told me it was Biology, which is what I have too."
"Really," TSO asked surprised. "So do I!"
"Me too," Child cheered.
"I do also," Champ added.
Isn't that coincidence?
