Hi! New chapter! I don't own Pokemon.
Chapter Eighteen: School Hierarchy
"Hey Brocko boy!"
"Gary, I told you not to call me that."
"Brocko boy, you have a letter!"
Brock growled and snatched the letter off Gary. He could understand why Ash hated Gary so much. Gary was a pain in the backside. They were in the staff room right now, school having not started yet. He teared open the envelope lazily.
"Hey doodle poodle!"
There was that damn voice again. Brock smiled to himself. At least he didn't have Tracy's nickname.
"Poodle you have a letter!"
Tracy rolled his eyes and grabbed the letter. Brock smiled sympathetically at Tracy. It was lucky there was someone else who was sane in the room. Todd and Harley were playing a furious game of table tennis whilst some female teachers were playing Just Dance. Brock didn't know why there was a Wii in the staff room, but it was there.
"Hey doodle poodle, where did you get your hair done today? Dog salon?" Gary laughed at his own joke. He soon gave up since no one else laughed. He stomped out the room, muttering something about the secretary not helping him out.
"Did you get an invitation too?" I asked Tracy.
"Yeah. We can make it, can't we?"
"Of course. I can't wait. This job is not as satisfying as I thought."
"Cough cough. You mean there aren't enough girls."
Damn it! Brock thought. He turned red and changed the subject. Tracy knew him too well.

It was funny, really, how the gang had turned out to be the 'popular group' in the school. All of them, even Paul. He wasn't too happy about it. Drew acted, well, normal and flicked his hair and Ash sorta looked half embarrassed. Dawn took advantage of the situation, May was nervous and Misty, she was happy with life.
Second day of school came along, and Misty woke up with a smile. She took a quick peek of her calendar, which was full of following events. But it was like this every week.
Monday. Ash time
Tuesday. Girls meeting
Wednesday. Gang meetings
Thursday. Alternate weeks, Ash time and Girls meeting
Friday. Girls night out
Misty grinned, all three of the girly meetings were at the gym, meaning no wardrobe clean outs. And this week's gang meeting was at Drew's house, meaning luxury foods. This week was looking up!

Ring ring ring, ring ring ring. Phone call! Phone call! Ring ring ring, ring ri-
"Hello Hayden residence." A grumpy voice was heard.
"Drew! Guess what! It's our five year anniversary!" Ash's girlish squeal came from the phone and Drew winced.
"Ash, are you drunk?"
"Noooo. But we need a party! Call Paul for me!"
"Ash. We're not married. Or dating for that matter. And I told you before never to eat all the tangfastics at once."
"Drewy poo, you don't understand. It's been five years since we had our first meeting and became BFFs."
"One, I am NOT Drewy Poo. You sound like Harley. Two, BFFs are for girls. We are merely friends."
"Aww. And speaking of Harley, I have your invitation here with me to his wedding."
"Harley's going to get MARRIED?"
"Yeah. Well see you at school. BFFs forever!"
Drew sighed. When was that boy ever going to learn. He smiled at a memory that popped into his head.
…
"What am I doing here?" A small and very childish Ash stood in the doorway of Drew's mansion.
"To give you a lesson on manliness." Drew replied calmly.
"What he said." Paul grunted.
"But I already am a boy! Look, I have muscles!" The younger Ash pulled up his sleeve and tried to look manly. He failed miserably.
"No. Let's teach you a lesson." Drew rolled his eyes.
…
Drew smirked. He remembered clearly. He and Paul had been walking through the park, when they spotted Ash whining like a girl and crying because he couldn't go in the children's park. You know, the park for two year olds. Maybe it was time for a party. A party to remind Ash of his humiliation.

"Hey May!"
"Misty! Where's Dawn? And the boys? We've been summoned to Professor Oak's office."
"Yeah I know. Dawn's gone to get the boys, they're at their lockers."
"Oh ok! Have you seen the builders? I wonder what they're building."
"Someone told me it's going to be a boarding house."
"May! Misty! Come on, let's go!" Dawns voice could be heard in the distance. "Hurry up you guys,or we're going shopping after school!"
The two girls glanced at each other, grimaced and tore off to the school.

"So I guess you guys are wondering why you're here?" Professor Oak croaked.
Everyone nodded.
"I'm making you prefects. You'll find out what advantages you have, in home room."
Professor Oak handed out the badges and the gang filed out of the room in silence. Dawn, the one who always talked, broke the silence.
"Uh, what advantages do we have?"
Everyone face palmed. Why was she so impatient?

Home room, was as usual, noisy, since the teacher hadn't arrived. Dawn, Misty and May were talking about some of the boys in their class, and Drew, Paul and Ash were, um, talking about perverted things. Then the room fell silent as the newly arranged TV that lived above the whiteboard turned on. Then a smiling face popped into the scene.
"Is that…." Misty started.
"Duplica?" Ash finished.
Duplica, not hearing Misty and Ash since she was in the recording studio, winked at the camera and adjusted herself so her upper half of her body could be seen too. Eek, a bad picture.
"Hey guys! I'm your morning reporter! And there are new clubs going on. And Professor Oak is here to give an important announcement! And cute guys, you can meet me in room 2016, before lunch."
She whispered the last part, of course. Misty, May and Dawn rolled their eyes at most of the boys in their home room who were gaping at the TV.
"Ugh. She's turned into such a slut." Misty sighed.
Professor Oak filled the screen and he cleared his throat quickly.
"As some of you know, there are now prefects. There are six at the moment and I will not hesitate to add more if I want to. Also we have added the rule of, when in classes, teachers will put you where they want to to go. Prefects have the ability to get to lunch first, sit anywhere they want in class and tell new students off for misbehaviour. I hope you have a good second day of school."
The TV screen flicked off. Everyone in the home room looked at the gang, who had shining prefect badges on their current outfit of the day.
"Well we have a pretty good advantage." Drew pointed out happily.
"Yeah… We can get in the lunch queue first." Ash smiled happily.
The rest of the gang sighed.

"Ashton, go sit next t-" the teacher started to assign Ash to a seat.
"Sorry Miss, but all six of us are prefects." Ash smirked, feeling superior.
"Ah, yes. Go sit wherever you like." The teacher sniffed.
The group sat in the back row, noting that the rest of the class were staring at them in envy, or in some cases, admiration. They sat like this:
Ash Misty Dawn May Drew Paul
Ash didn't mind sitting without Drew or Paul. He had Misty after all. When they got to lunch, they found a small table of six so they could sit on their own. To their surprise, happiness and horror, everyone in the lunch hall were staring at them and whispering. May and Misty were bright red with embarrassment, Drew looked normal, Paul looked emotionless, and Dawn and Ash both looking shocked, for two different reasons. Ash because he didn't know that the school cafeteria made such good cheeseburgers and Dawn because she wasn't wearing her favourite skirt today and still everyone was looking at her.
Then, to Misty's anger, a fan girl of Ash came up to him and asked him out, promising that she would be the 'best girlfriend in the world'. She was a short girl, but with huge curves and long blonde hair.
And to Misty's surprise, Ash turned her down.
"Sorry but I already have the best girlfriend in the world." And he pecked Misty on the lips in front of the whole school.
And the whole school melted. Except for Paul of course. And the blonde girl.
"Why'd you do that?" Misty whispered.
"Do what, Mist?"
"Turn her down."
"Well," Ash blinked. "I'm normally quite nice. But for you I will."

A/N: That didn't make sense. The last sentence. Eh, I'll let it be. For now, I guess. And for all you Duplica fans, sorry. She was there for me to manipulate. It was going to be Iris, but I can't exactly see that happening. And the idea of Drew marrying Ash is disturbing. But cute.
Anyways, review, follow and favourite!
Will update soon,
