"Today is a good day for you to die!" Coach Sarge shouted, throwing the two lonely kids who were sitting on the bleachers into the field with the rest of the kids.
"Ugh... Yes sir..." Simmons mumbled, treading his feet through the snow, dragging Grif along.
It was December first, and all of the traffic was shut off, making the kids have to stay overnight at school. It had been the second day of survival.
(Yes, I have had to do this once. I hope you never have to.)
All the kids had divided into two teams:
Red and Blue.
Frank aka Doc, being the known pacifist at school, didn't really participate. Instead, he provided pretend medical assistance to the fallen.
They were in highschool, yet they were all children at heart.
As Red team let Simmons and Grif join their side, the two friends looked over to see Tucker and Wash on the other side, aiming for-
"Get down!" Grif cried, tackling Simmons to the ground.
The whole battlefield froze when they saw the two most-shipped teens in school laying directly on top of eachother.
Both blushed profusely, and scrambled off of one another.
As Grif was going to apologize, a snowball from Tucker smacked him in the face.
"Team blue, bitch!"
Grif nearly growled, but a small smile came afterwards. He reached down into the snow, scooping up a pack of ice and chucked it toward Wash, who wasn't paying attention.
Bullseye.
Simmons winced as he saw the snow cover Wash's far in pain, and almost looked scared. Heck, he was scared.
The teen looked around for available cover, and didn't see anything in sight. Except...
"Human shield!" He yelled, throwing Grif in front of him as Wash angrily threw another ice sphere in his direction.
"Hey! No violence you three!" Doc panicked, not realizing that his friends were just joking.
"We're just playing around Doc, c'mon! Loosen up a little!" Doc cheered, throwing another snowball.
Damn. He had a nice arm.
~~~~~
All of the fighting continued for what seemed like hours, until Sarge called the class inside. After that, it was Ramen and snuggle in your blankets.
Of course, Grif had an emergency blanket at all times, so he was settled. Along with Simmons having to get him to share.
Tucker was fine with his thick jacket, and so was Wash, so the two weren't uncomfortable at all.
Doc and Donut were planning on having a sleepover (cause that's totally what Highschoolers call it), and both had their sleeping bags at the ready.
While everyone was chatting about the horrid weather, Flowers, the Principal, talked on the megaphone.
"Students, I'm glad to announce that you will all be sent home by tonight? But until then, let's watch a movie, shall we?"
Children/teens cheered and shook eachother crazily as they thought of the happiness of finally going home. Most can't stand school for seven hours. Why be there three days?
Tucker and Wash highfived, Donut and Doc were a bit upset, and team Grimmons sighed in relief.
All was good.
The movie (of course) was RWBY, a movie all the main teens knew about and secretly obsessed over. People who didn't know about in were slightly confused, but usually people got the just of craziness after five minutes.
During all the Jaune and Phyrra scenes where they didn't confess their feelings, people were frustrated, dissapointed, and yelling at the screen as if characters could hear them.
All in all, it was a good day at Blood Gultch high.
That night, as the boys fell asleep, something wonderful happened to each one.
When Doc and Donut drifted off, they secretly held hands through an opened portion of their sleeping bags.
When Grif and Simmons passed out, Simmons fell asleep on top of the Hawaiian's arm, and honestly, I don't think either minded.
Tucker and Wash, however, didn't fall asleep. They stayed up all night, talking about their favorite couples and how to get them to happen.
So yeah.
Maybe school isn't all that bad.
