"DUDE, RUN!" Roy Smith, a 15 year old High Schooler yelled at his older brother, Gunther. The two had spent the Sunday night prior playing the game that had recently came out, "Above Average Crash Related Persons", though neglecting to remember they had school in the morning. How could they? They quote unquote "needed ekanS, because he was a super cool spy for the illuminati" (A/N, my SSBU Fanboyism is real). They also conveniently forgot the few... colorful words their principal's assistant had said...
(Flashback, Friday, 4:30. Doo-dele-doo-dele-doo...)
"WHAT? PLEASE SIR, NO!" The boys had just learnt of Principal Horace's plan to expel them, and send them, with parental permission, to St. Marrie's School At Which Reformations, Excellence and Extra is Mandatory (S.A.W.R.E.E.M [pronounced Sah-wee]). They knew their parents would allow it, they had been barley pulling C's, despite the mandatory B requirement. They were on the ground pleading for the safety of Reginald's High Sc_ool (some rascal [Roy and Gunther] stole the "h"). The Principal stood there with his tall statue, his brown hair receding and most of it travelled down to his beard, which was untamed and curley. In the corner was his assistant. Her red hair reaching mid back, but her biggest feature, and the one people looked at most, was her heterochromia. Her left eye was green, while her more hidden red eye sat behind her glasses and hair.
"Sorry boys. You failed, and I've given you one too many chances. My sister Marie would gladly accept you though." Horace said, trying and failing to help. The boys simply laid at his feet and bawled. He tried pushing them with his foot, nudging them. Suddenly speaking up, Horace's Assistant Julia had a idea. She and her red hair usually kept to herself in her corner, so when she speaks up, most pay attention
"W-wait, I have an idea!" She went through one of her file drawers and pulled out a binder. She walked over and put it on her bosses' desk.
"I was much like them when I was younger, not paying much attention and falling behind, but this should work! It's a day to day planner! Once I began following it, I was a straight A student. It might work for them!"
"I don't know Julia. It seems like they can't follo-"
"WE WILL! WE WILL!" The boys pleaded with the bushy bearded principal. He stood there for a minute till he finally spoke.
"Alright. If you boys catch up on all of your work, come in on time, and pass the Monday tests, I suppose I'll keep you."
"We will sir!" Roy said
"We won't fail!" Gunther followed.
"Alright boys, I'm counting on you. Please show them out and handle today's paper work Julia. I've got a date in an hour and I'd rather not be late." He walked out as Julia turned to boys. Despite the fact that she'd usually have a kind and caring look on her face, she now look to that of a psycho. Her red eye had revealed itself, and it seemed to be ignited, and burning. This was normal, as she had began doing this.
"well, Well, WELL! It seems you boys forgot what I said last time, d-i-d-n-'-t you..." You know she was pushed over the edge when she started breaking apart her words. "I thought you said you wouldn't be back here anymore. You said 'Oh it's alright Miss. Ular, we'll follow the rules! NO MORE BREAKING THEM! NO MORE STEALING LETTERS!'" You could hear her teeth grinding together. She must've been off her medicine.
"S-s-sorry miss. W-w-we'll see ourselves out." The boys ran home, and studied like they'd never studied before (they worked for an hour, then went and screwed around).
(Flashback: 7:30 Am, their house. Doo-dele-doo-dele-doo...)
The boys' alarm went off, as they groogally got up. They had only got three hours of sleep, but they needed to get to school. They headed to get dressed and walked downstairs. They looked at the note on Roy's phone for contacts so they could get a ride. (Roy asks, Gunther Responds)
"Mom?"
"Passed out on the couch"
"Dad?"
"At work, won't be off until 9:30-ish. So about 11:00"
"Uncle Alfred?"
"Who knows. Just accept that we have to walk."
"Alright, get ready". The two got ready, grabbed some lunch money and left. They were almost immediately stopped by an arcade, where they spent most of their time. And now, we're here (Flashback over)
"Oh man Roy, were gonna be creamed!"
"I told you that was the last level, but 'no!' you just had to get that giant dog!"
"YOU KNOW I CAN'T RESIST DOGGOS!"
They had been running for Eight minutes non-stop (which is crazy for them), and they eventually collapsed to their knees.
"Gosh darn it, well never make it. CURSE YOU FATHER TIME!"
The two were laying there when Gunther utter the words that changed everything...
"l JUST WISHED TIME WOULD STOP!"...
...
...
So it did.
(What's next? Did everyone freeze? I haven't a clue, but what I do know...
Don't take candy from strangers)
