How are you? Enjoy Sparrow's point of view of the last chapter! And don't forget to PM me with any questions!

Sparrow was bored. He put his head in his hands and tried to go to sleep. Kitty was bored. So bored that she didn't even want to prank anyone. So she took a cat nap. Mia was bored. She was filing her nails that were already perfectly filed.

The first little pig skipped detention, claiming he was sick. Headmaster Grimm said today would be a surprise. Well, it was a surprise. The students hexpected to be scrubbing bathrooms. But the surprise was to do nothing. They didn't even have work to do, because the headmaster excused them from all classes today. That was his plan. For Sparrow and Kitty to die of boredom. Maybe Mia too.

Sparrow sluggishly walked to the teacher's desk and found two sharpened pencils, laying side by side. Sparrow picked them up, attempting to tap them together to make a beat.

When Sparrow's fingers grazed them, they began to glow. Brighter, brighter, and brighter, until they exploded with blue sparks and turned into drum sticks!

He eagerly grabbed them and tapped them on the desk. Mia looked up in amazement. "Whoa. Cool!" He wasn't that good at the drums, but he managed to make a steady beat.

Kitty woke up and meowed. "Coool.", she mewed. "Where'd ya get those? Could you sneak me a ball of yarn? I could really use one of those."

As soon as those words left the feline's mouth, the drumsticks began to glow, and blue sparks shot out. They exploded and turned into a bright green ball of yarn! Mia shook her head and marveled at the magic. Sparrow threw the yarn ball to Kitty, who passed it to Mia, who passed it back to Sparrow.

After this went on for a while, Mia had an idea. "I don't know about you guys, but have you ever heard of Pranksters?"

Sparrow and Kitty shook their heads no. "But I like the sound of that." Kitty purred. Mia told them it was this app that allowed you to prank people, without them knowing it was you!

"Let's do it." Sparrow grinned. Mia nodded. "I want Pranksters." The yarn ball in Sparrow's hands began to move. He yelped and threw it onto the floor. It exploded with blue sparks, and on the floor, lay a shiny golden MirrorPad.

Sparrow moved and gingerly picked it up. It had no password, so Sparrow slid the lock page and found one single app. Pranksters. But before Sparrow could activate the app, something barreled through the door.

It was Duchess! She slid onto the floor. Sparrow dropped the MirrorPad and rushed to help Duchess.

"Duchess!? Duchess!" Sparrow cried. Mia and Kitty followed behind, crouching down next to him.

"Hey, are you okay?" he asked her. Her eyes weren't wide open, but they weren't shut either.

"You're looking kind of...um.. pale. Well, paler than usual." Kitty noted. Sparrow glared at her, to say that her little comment was helping.

"Relax, she's just being dramatic." Mia rolled her eyes.

Sparrow lifted Duchess up. "Put her down!" Mia screeched.

"No.", he retorted.

"Duchess. Duchess, if you can here me, say "I can hear you Sparrow", Sparrow said.

Duchess tried to open her mouth. "I...can..", she started.

And that was all she could manage before she fainted.

Duchess's eyes fluttered open. Sparrow looked down at her along with Nurse Belle, Kitty, and the reluctant Mia.

"Duchess, sweetie, are you okay?" Nurse Belle asked. Duchess managed to nod. She tried sitting up, and Sparrow brought her a pillow.

"What happened, guys?" Duchess asked. Mia rolled her eyes. "You interrupted detention." Sparrow noticed Duchess eyeing Mia longingly. Was she jealous?

"Detention? Sparrow is that where you were?" Duchess cried, springing up from the bed. She immediately fell in pain to the floor. Sparrow and Nurse Belle immediately grabbed her and hoisted her onto the bed.

"Sparrow, I think it's time for you three to leave." Nurse Belle said, "Duchess needs her medicine to make her sleep." Duchess shook her head wildly. "No! No! I need to talk to Sparrow!"

Sparrow gripped his beautiful girl's hand. He looked down on her, and she turned away.

"Get some rest. You'll feel better after that. I promise that I'll come and visit you as soon as I can. Okay?" he murmured.

"Ugh, c'mon Sparrow!" Mia whined.

"No, but Sparrow-" Duchess started.

Nurse Belle brought a needle filled with a clear liquid to Duchess's arm. Before she could finish, she was injected, and her eyes closed.

"Will she be okay?" Sparrow asked worriedly.

"Of course, dear. It seems really odd for you of all fairytales to be concerned for her, though." Nurse Belle said.

Sparrow shrugged and left the nurse's office. Kitty and Mia went ahead back into the room, to play Pranksters, but Sparrow stayed behind.

What was happening? Sparrow was obviously defying destiny, like he cared, but Duchess took no interest in him! Why? What did he do to her that made her refuse to like him back?

Sparrow would find an answer. Soon, he'd know why Duchess couldn't admit her feelings to him. As soon as he got out of detention, he was asking a certain fairy what she knew about her old best friend.

And there you have it! Chapter 9! I'm pretty sure we all know who Sparrow's going to talk to. But I'll update as soon as I can! Bye!
