Ocarin: The cry of the Hrenadrid

"So are you sure she's out?" Asked Sajon with his face pressed against the wall.

"For the billionth time Sajon, it's clear!" said Poakil from inside the classroom.

The boys had decided to just go and get the game. Poakil walked into the room, still wary that Miss Grumblert would pop out at any moment. For such a smug person, Poakil seemed to be turning into a coward. Anyhow, the boys set out on the search for the game. They each took up different sections of the room: Ocarin around the front; Sajon to the left and Poakil to the right. They searched for fifteen minutes then the boys heared the door open. They ran into the pre-arranged hiding spots and peeked around the corner. Ocarin couldn't believe his eyes. Standing in the door-way was the most beautiful girl that Ocarin had ever known. Claratres Drefeya.

"Hello!" she said with a voice that could have made a bird stop singing to listen, "anybody here?"

Poakil jumped to his feet and approached her, walking with a confident swagger.

"Well hello there," he said, as cocky as ever, "and who might you be looking for?"

"Um...have you seen Ocarin?" she said cautiously.

Poakil's heart sank. He, as well as all the boys, liked Claratres. She was the prettiest girl in their year.

"He's hiding behind the desk," Poakil said, sadness creeping onto his face.

Ocarin had no idea why Claratres would ever speak to him. After all, he was just plain Ocarin. He thought taht he'd better get up.

"Um...hi Claratres," he said tentatively.

"Hi Ocarin," Claratres said, redness showing on her cheeks "um... well its the school dance coming up and I see that you don't have a date so," she paused for a brief minute and continued, "would you like to go with me?"

Ocarin was speechless, he had to answer fast or else she might ask someone else.

"Yeah, sure, sounds good, okey dokey," he said.

"Great," she said, all embarrassment gone, "see you later?"

"Yep,see you later...alligator," he said.

Claratres chuckled, winked and left.

"Wow!" said Sajon, almost dying of laughter, " 'okey dokey, see you later alligator, ooh I love you Claratres!"

Even Poakil couldn't help smirking.

"Okay, mocking over! Time to get your stupid game back," said Ocarin abruptly.

"It's not a stupid game its..." Poakil couldn't finish his sentence because Ocarin just exclaimed "Guys, I got something to show you."

They crowded around Ocarin and exclaimed as well. In his hands was a photo of miss Grumblert on her wedding day, except the groom looked very familiar.

"It can't be!" Sajon exclaimed.

Standing next to the Grumbler, dressed in a groom's tuxedo, was Skyball legend Federalea LeBegraffe.
