When he came back into the room, Orbii had started getting ready for school. Oorbo looked at the time.

"Meh, I got a few minutes."

He picked up a controller and started playing a game. What felt like seconds turned into a half an hour. Orbii was ready to head out the door while Oorbo was still playing the game.

"Oorbo! Do you know what time it is?"

Oorbo looked at the clock, "Oh crap!" he shouted.

He started panicking, getting everything he needed for school.

"C'mon, we're gonna be late!" Orbii yelled.

"I know, just hold on!"

Oorbo rushed out the door with Orbii following right behind. They both revved up their jetpacks and began flying to school. Halfway there Oorbo felt like he was forgetting something. He looked behind him, but realized he was too far away from home and they were already running late, so he kept heading towards school.

When they finally got to school, the bell had already rung.

"Shoot Oorbo, c'mon!" Orbii said, pulling him along.

They made their way to P/E class. The teacher, Mr. Rufous, was already taking attendance.

Oorbo and Orbii burst into the doors.

"Sorry Mr. Rufous, I know we're late," Orbii apologized.

"This is the second time you two have been late to my class."

Oorbo then stepped in, "It was my fault, I overslept and made us both late."

"I don't care what you did, you're late. The next time you're late to my class, it's a write-up."

They both looked at each other. Orbii looked disappointed and Oorbo looked slightly embarrassed.

"Well don't just stand there, take a seat. I will announce what we're doing after I finish taking attendance."

After attendance was taken, Mr. Rufous stood up and announced, "Ok class, today we are doing some telekinesis training. We will go to the aux gym and lift some weights."

Oorbo sighed. "Not this again.."

They went into the aux gym and picked up some weights. Everyone was doing fine, except Oorbo and a few others, who had trouble lifting the heavy weights.

Orbii came up to Oorbo. "Hey, you ok bro?"

"Ya I'm fine."

"Are you sure? You seem to be having some trouble keeping those weights in the air."

"I'm fine Orbii," he grunted.

"Alright," Orbii said, floating away.

After an hour of training, the teacher announced, "Alright everyone, training's over. Go into the shower room and wash yourselves off."

They all went into the shower room and washed off. Afterwards, they left to go to their next class. Oorbo and Orbii went down the hall together. Oorbo saw his next class on the far left.
