[Tracy's P.O.V.]

After an hours' worth of mind-meddling torture lessons/Princess Elegance Debutante, school was OUT!

Oh and remember my teacher, Madam Mai? I wanted to get even with her humiliating me in class. (snickers mischievously) Wow! Either I am more mischievous than I thought or I'm really learning bad things from the transfer students!

"Hey bro!" I waved at my brother.

"How was Basic Chivalry?" I asked.

"More like Basic Chilly. The whole class was about us guys being nice to girls. I mean come on! That class is where my regular Inotia 4 gaming session is on!" My brother, Jones, rolled his eyes.

"And who's the teacher?" I frowned. Please make sure it's not Madam Mai!

"Snow White's husband." My brother snorted. "I mean, dude, his wife was like 14 when they first met! And he was like ages older!"

"Oh come on, those two are like 3-5 years apart, and so are our mom and dad," I corrected.

"At least their age line seemed normal for marriage!" Jones added as we chuckled.

"Hey Jones, mind if I borrow your 'special stew' for later?" I asked.

"Who's it for?" he asked.

"That crazy matchmaker lady who said mom would never get married." I whispered.

"Done! But I will be needing some extra spices, like say mint to cover up the smell." He nodded. How I loved my mischievous brother!

"Shh!" my brother shushed as we hid behind the lockers. He took out a compact mirror to reflect whatever's outside the corner. Strange, isn't that compact mirror supposed to be Lonnie's?

"I borrowed it from her." He snapped as if he read my mind. I scowled at the thought of Lonnie.

We saw Ben, Audrey and Chad talking. Huh, if you arranged it to Audrey, Ben and Chad, we have an ABC.

"Those kids are trouble!" Chad stated, pointing at the transfer students.

How dare you?! Just because someone was born and their parents are evil, it doesn't qualify them as automatically 'evil'!

I clenched my fists tightly, but Jones gave me a look that told me I shouldn't be too impulsive.

"Give them a chance," Ben advised.

"No offence Benny-bear, but you're just too trusting! Look I know that your mom met a big scary beast that turned out to be a prince. But with my mom, the evil fairy was just the evil fairy. I meant her." Audrey stated before she and Chad left.

"Just ignore them, dude." My brother came out from our hiding spots and gave Ben a pat on the back.

"They are just too narrow-minded, and mean, and a bunch of jerks." I added. I wanted to rant more but I'm afraid that I could get detention for using unpleasant words.

Oh great! My hair is messy, again.

"Look, Jones, I'll be off to the washroom, so I'll see you later at the Tourney game practice!" I waved my brother goodbye as I dashed off.

"Today's practice is 4 to 6!" my brother shouted.

[Jones' P.O.V.]

I shouted to remind my sometimes absent-minded sister about my training time. Just in case, I know she has a good memory but I could never be too careless.

I noticed Ben walking up to one of the transfer students, Mal, was it?

"Hey." Ben called out Mal, leaning against the lockers.
