Object High

CHAPTER 1

It was a sunny day at Object High. All the students were being dropped off by parents or the bus, and some kids just walked and rode bikes. The students hung out in the cafeteria as usual, ready for another day of school. It's the day after winter break ended, and everyone is trying to adjust to being back in school again after the break.
TB: "Golfie, I fixed the Wall Teleporter while I was on break, and I have a new idea!
GB: "What is it NOW?"
TB: "It's a rocket that can go to any of the planets in the Goikyverse. We would need a lot of yoyleberries and funny plant petals... and maybe some of Floor's floor...?
GB: "What an ill-planned idea! How dumb of an idea is that?! We would require too many materials, and would probably have to ask Test Tube for help. I'm her science colleague and friend, but I like doing things on my own.
Tennis Ball puts her on his head, kisses her cheek, and says, "Golfie, that's preposterous and impossible." as she blushes slightly.
GB: "Thanks."
The members of DEATH PACT met this morning to discuss the ways they prevented the death of others over the break.
Tree: "Anyone save lives? Anyone try to eliminate death-related objects from public places?"
Black Hole: "Yeah, I sucked up some weapon and random doorstep had. Looked like a large gun."
Tree: "Good job my oxymoron, anyone else?"
Liy: "I saved some people from an alley that were being terrorized by a doorstep. about 7. Probably more than anyone else. "
Pen: "Yeah, but winter break is when we take a break, idiot!"
Black Hole: "Same doorstep I sucked the gun from! Small world."
Pie: "I ran into that entity I had some beef with at my favorite taco place. He death-stared me the entire time we were playing chess."
Marker: "I ate dirt!"
Lightning: "Yes, my idiot, you ate dirt the whole break. I just tried to suppress my electricity to help people but ended up not helping anyone because there was no one to help. Marker, I love you, you idiot."
Marker smiles ear to ear at this comment from Lightning.
The bell then rings and everyone heads to class. Most of the school has Math with Four first period. Most kids in this school are in the ninth grade, but a few are in 7th. All the ninth graders have the same classes. There are about 122 kids in the ninth grade.
Silver and Candle walk down the hallway holding hands.
Silver: "I can't believe we have Four for first period again! I would possibly rather die than spend an hour with him and the other commoners that go to this school!"
Candle: "Silver, you have to make the best of the situations that you are in! At least you have Playdoh, Lollipop, Flower, and Paintbrush as good friends! With friendship, you can do just about anything."
Silver: "Darling, but I still have you! A radiant flame in the darkness!", he says before kissing her hand.
Candle, blushing a lot: "I already knew that, but it is nice to have reassurance from my loved ones."
Yang: "STOP MAKING OUT IN THE HALLWAY!"
Paintbrush: "WHO DIED AND MADE YOU HALL MONITOR?!"
Yin: "Sadly, the hall monitor, Icy died yesterday. She should be back in school tomorrow."
Paintbrush: "Oh. Sorry!"
Paintbrush and Lightbulb continue making out in the hallways.
Pin: "Coiny... I need to tell you something."
Coiny: "I was about to say the same thing, love."
Pin: "I like Leafy. and maybe Firey..."
Coiny: "Did you read my mind? That's what I was going to say!"
Pin: "Haven't you and Firey been enemies since you were in 3rd grade?!"
Coiny shrugs and says "Feelings change, I guess."
Pin: "I guess that's the same with me and Leafy. I used to be friends with her, then I hated her, then I was friends with her again."
Coiny: "Aren't Firey and Leafy a thing?"
Pin: "Yeah, but they're both Pan and Poly."
Coiny: "Like us...?"
Pin: "Yeah!"
Then, almost all of the students arrive at math. There's a strict seating chart, and the class is generally REALLY hard. Four is a mean, generally tough teacher.
Four: "SIT DOWN!"
Blocky: "For a prank, remove the seats from all the chairs in the room!"
Everyone attempts to sit and they fall on the floor. Four realizes Blocky was the one who did this prank, so he screeched Blocky.
Four continues to teach the class about linear equations.
Firey: "Y is equal to 4x?"
Four: "Yes!"
Nori: "Why do all the equations include Four and X? It's always 4x, or 4 + x, or 4 + 4x, or something like that."
Pin: "Teacher-teacher relationships. Four and X have been dating for literal years. I think they're engaged!"
Nori: "That makes more sense."
Four: "Fire Alarm, Scat, stop fighting!"
Cringe Pill takes notes on the combat, as everyone else watches them wrestle. Teardrop eventually applauds.
Four: "STOP APPLAUDING THE FIGHTING!"
Everyone immediately stops and runs back to their seats at that very moment.
Four: "I'll continue teaching, and it seems like you'll continue talking. I'll wait."
Everyone slowly begins to fall into silence as Four starts teaching again.
X, the art teacher, walks into the room.
X: "Good morning everyone! I need the attendance reports for today, thanks!"
Four: "Here you go."
As Four gives X the reports, X skips away and Four just happily sighs and says, "That's the sunshine."
Then everyone immediately understood why all the problems had to do with Four and X.
