Kai grunted in slight pain as he and the other sunk into their seats in their homeroom. He and Cole had finally returned to their school and were told they would have to work extremely hard to catch up and not repeat the grade. That basically meant no free time, just school work. Even though they wouldn't say it, Ray and Maya were very grateful for that. It meant that their son and Cole wouldn't have the opportunity to get up to anything.

If they were so busy catching up with their school work, not that they could anyway.

With Kai's injured leg he couldn't take part in any school sports until it healed or do any serious exercise. Kai hated this but he had to endure. The only good thing that came out of this whole mess was that Kai was allowed to leave class early to avoid getting trampled in the halls. He and Cole did get teased for their relationship but thankfully the fear of the wrath of Nya kept the teasing to a bare minimum. As everyone got settled in their seats, Miss. Koko entered the classroom.

"Morning students!" She said with a cheery smile. "I'm sure I'm wasting my time here, but the office has asked me to read a very important notice; pupils are invited to put themselves forward as the year group representative on the school council." She explained. "This is the most important leadership position in the year and names to the office by Friday." She added, catching Skylor's attention.

"Miss, I'd like to be the leader of the school council." The red-haired girl suddenly said, shocking everyone.

"Really?" Koko frowned.

"Actually, miss, I'd like to be the year's representative on the council," Nya said, casting a hint of glare at Skylor.

"Oh, well, that's very-"

"Well we think it should be someone with their finger on the pulse, miss," Harumi smirked. "Someone like me."

"Too much girl power." Chad scoffed. "I'd better go for it, too, miss." He added with a confident grin. Koko looked at all four volunteers and smiled.

"Well, looks like we've got a fight on our hands, hm?" She smiled before starting the register. As soon as she finished checking the register, the students were dismissed and headed for their next lessons. While they were walking down the halls, Morro and Lloyd were desperately trying to convince Skylor to pull out of the student elections.

"The thing is, we have an expression here," Morro said as he walked with Lloyd and Skylor. "Don't run before you can walk."

"What?" She frowned in confusion.

"It basically means you're trying to do something requiring a high level of knowledge before you've learned the basics." Replied Lloyd.

"I was born to lead, like all my family." She stated with a sad glint in her eyes at the mention of her family.

"You're supposed to be fitting in, not sticking out," Morro growled.

"Now that I'm going to stay here, I need to take my place."

"I just don't think you realize what you're actually getting yourself into." Lloyd sighed as they continued walking. Further down the hallway, Nya had a happy smile on her face as she walked to her next lesson. That is until Pixel suddenly sped up so she was next to her.

"I have had some ideas for your campaign." She smiled at the female werewolf.

"You want to do something for us?" She glared. "You can delete those videos, all of them."

"I would if I thought it would make any difference." She sighed. "Please let me I can make it up to you, I can help you win."

"I don't need your kind of help!" She snapped and stormed away, leaving a disheartened Pixel alone in the crowded hallway...
