Surviving A Fairytale (OC Fanfic- SGE)

Chapter Six- Divide and Conquer

That morning when I woke up, I had a massive throbbing headache. I couldn't stop thinking about who that person could possibly be. It couldn't be my mum, or could it?

I asked Rose about who it could possibly be and she then said: "it's probably just a coincidence." I just then sighed and said, "Yeah, probably." But I couldn't stop thinking about it.

Anyways, in Beautification, we did another lesson on Daytime Skincare. We then walked out to Etiquette where we had to walk with books on our head, just like in those cheesy Barbie movies I used to watch as a kid. Yena groaned as she received a bottom rank. "I'm Mulan's daughter, we don't learn useless stuff like this back in Shanghai!"

But Yena definitely wouldn't receive a bottom rank in the next class. What is it, you're probably thinking?

Swordsplay & Training. Yeah, I've probably said enough.

When all the girls rocked up to Swordsplay and Training, which was in a cool looking gymnasium, a Latino looking man with a thick moustache greeted us.

"Welcome, welcome, girls! Because of the Equality Act, boys and girls will now do Swordsplay and Animal Communication on alternating days! Girls will do Animal Communication on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and then take Swordsplays & Training on Tuesdays and Thursdays! For boys, it's the opposite! And since today is Tuesday, your time has arisen to start my favourite subject." he said in a thick Latin accent. All the girls groaned at the last sentence.

"Anyways, my name is Professor Espada. Because of a mix-up with admissions, we will have to temporarily have three boys in our class." almost everyone except for me squealed. I rolled my eyes.

"But just for today," he said. All the girls groaned. I just smirked because of how ridiculous they were all acting.

And that's when the boys walked in. First, there was a random boy called Max, then Oliver, who gave Rose her flower, and then Alexander. Why?

As if things couldn't get any worse, he then planted a big kiss on Emmalyn's lips. After they made out for a bit, with most of the girls squealing and the two boys wolf-whistling, I just stood there. After that, Emmalyn then smirked at me, as if she had won a competition that I had lost.

And as much as I didn't want to be friends with Alex, let alone date him, I couldn't help feeling a little upset. Why would he say that he "liked" me and yet start full-frontal making out with Emma?

Whatever.

"Alright, less kissing, more fighting!" Espada yelled.

We were then split up into two groups. The big group, which was where most of the girls were, was the group where the girls knew little to nothing about swordsplay or fencing.

A smaller group, where me, Rose, Yena, Milla, and the boys were on, was the 'Intermediate to Advanced' group. Yena, Milla, me, and the boys all come from sporty backgrounds and even Rose was the captain of the fencing club back at her school in Gavaldon, her hometown.

Espada then directed the beginner group and then moved on to the group I was in. Everyone was in full-on action fencing, with Yena kicking everyone's butts, obviously. All the boys groaned, with Max making some sexist comment "girls shouldn't be this practical." I then raised my sword at him which caused him to run away instead of fight back. Ha!

Anyways, our group then fought for a bit, with Alexander getting seriously pissed that Yena was beating him at Swordsplay. "No one has ever beat me at Swordsplay before!" Yena just had a big smirk on her face saying "I just learned from the best, my mother." She then did a move which caused Alex to fall on the floor on his back and Yena to point her sword directly underneath his chin and throat.
