Max's alarm was going off at 6 am, making Sav, Sal, Tess and Anika just stare at Max as he somehow slept through the alarms he had set up the night before. Sav grabbed Sals pillow and proceeded to throw it at Max, making him jolt awake and see the others looking at him.
"Good morning, Max." Sal told making Max turn the alarms off.
"6:00 already." He muttered before moving to go back to sleep, only for the one Sav snuck under his pillow last night to start going off, making him sit back up again and moved his pillow to grab that alarm and turned that off.
"Get up." Sal told him.Max put on a casual suit and tie to seem more professional and the four approved the look.
"Looking good, new Max!" Anika stated.
"You might just be able to pull this off." Sav informed him through text.(Max p.o.v)
I arrived to school early and continued my clean up duty that I didn't really finish the day before. Of course as I worked away, Clutterbeak arrived and was suspicious on what I was doing.
"Oh, good morning, miss Clutterbeak." I told her.
"Is this some kind of joke?" She asked me, making me follow her eyesight as she looked around. "Where's the hidden camera?"
"Oh, it's no joke. I felt bad because I didn't do a thorough job cleaning up yesterday." I informed her before snapping the claw and she was still suspicious on his actions. "That briefcase looks heavy. May I carry it in for you?"
"I don't know what your game is, young man, but it's not gonna work on me." She stated making me let out a sigh as she walked away.
'Come on Max. I can do this!'While Clutterbeak worked on some papers for the school at her desk, I was moping up the floor to make sure it was as clean as it could be. Later on I was cleaning the windows on the doors and Clutterbeak walked by and watched for a moment before continuing on. As she was working on the blackboard to write down one of the lessons for the day, I was off to the side polishing a trophy. Next while she went over some tests from another glass, I placed a plate full of treats onto the desk for her to enjoy. Of course each action just had her ignore what I was doing, which was troublesome for me.
Definitely need to go bigger on this.'As I picked up some litter in the courtyard, I noticed Clutterbeak walking by, making me move towards her.
"Uh, miss Clutterbeak, my behaviour was unacceptable, and you have every right to talk to my foster parents about this, but..."
"But what?" She questioned me.
"The Hunters are cruel, hard people. They make me study day and night. If I fall asleep, they wake me up with buckets of ice water. Please don't tell them about this." I begged hoping this would finally get her. "I don't know what they'll do."
"That breaks my heart."
"I know, right?"
"That a young man like yourself doesn't appreciate the value of discipline. Your parents sound like my kind of people. Can't wait to meet them." She informed me with a slight chuckle before heading off, and I let out a sigh at failing to get her to unsee them.
'New Max, complete failure.'
