Chapter 11: academic part 2

(@909DEMO909 and @Bjaygirl23 thanks for the ideas for this chapter and a future chapter.) (Thank you to @JaydenR_ for editing the chapters!)

You headed into the cafeteria, looking for your friends. You were full of emotion, hoping you were just hungry. Looking around, you found Deeno and Ellen sitting at a table with Tracy, another one of your friends who was in programming. You sat down between Ellen and Tracy and pulled out your lunchbox.

"Hay y/n, what's up?" Tracy asked.

"The sky." You say trying to let some humor out.

"Very funny." Deeno said sarcastically.

"You just came from the new English teachers class right?" Ellen asked.

"Yep, like Andrew told me this morning. Best of luck."

"That bad?" She asked

You nodded before mumbling "try living with them."

"Huh?" Tracy asked.

"Nothing." You say as loud as you open your lunchbox and take out a thermos and protein drink. You open it and smell the hot steak and potatoes inside. You grab the paper plate kronk packed and dump it out. You then begin to eat everything, except the mixed veggies which were at the bottom.

The rest of lunch you all sat and chatted with one another about your regular lives. Deeno was complaining about how awful physics is because of the boys. Ellen said she was going on vacation for her 18th birthday. And Tracy was telling them about how she won the school's basketball game last week. You weren't really paying attention though, since you were so busy scarfing down your meal. That is until you hear a high pitch scream.

"Snakes!" You all look up to see Spencer screaming like a girl as a pink and blue snake chases after him. "Get them away from me." He screamed as he dashed around the cafeteria.

Most kids got up on tables also screaming, others took out their phones and filmed the scenario. The staff in the cafe tried to go after the snakes but they were too fast and too clever.

You sighed as you got up from your seat.

"Y/n where are you doing?" Asked Ellen who was on the table with everyone else.

"I've got this." You mutter as you wait for Spencer to run by the table.

"Somebody help me!" He screamed as he tripped in front of your table. The two snakes were about to jump on him but you grab them. There was fire in your eyes as you grabbed them by their necks.

"both of you stop!" You shout at them.

They were hissing at you to let them go but you didn't care. They had been on top of you all day. And now Spencer was probably gonna go after you again.

"Somebody get the window." You say as one of the staff members gets the window.
You walk over and chuck them outside. "Stay out!" You shout before slamming the window shut.

You then hear cheers and applause from behind you. Majority of the kids were clapping and cheering for your name. Exsept spencer who had now gotten up off the floor.

"You did this!" He shouted, shutting up the applause.

"I did what?" You asked.

"You brought them into the school. You told them to chase me!" He said as he charged for you but you moved out of the way. He fell flat on his face and everyone laughed.

"How does it feel, Spencer? To be a laughing stock." You comment with a small smile as you walk back to your table.

"You're gonna regret this y/n, I promise!" He said as the bell rang.

"Wow y/n that was incredible!" Tracy said as they all got down from the table.

"What can I say, I'm just good with pink and blue snakes. But let's be honest, Spencer deserved it." You say as you pack up your lunch box. You the. Wave goodbye to your friends and head off to history.

History was a bore as always. Mr Devito never knew how to teach. He just gave the class papers and expected you to teach yourself. Ya, what a great teacher. At Least it was 30 minutes of pointlessness before you had your favorite class, skills!

Skill was nice and easy, no extra homework, no other languages, just time to get help, catch-up, or do homework. You need skills because of your IEP. You just needed a bit of extra help and that's a-ok.

The skills class was small, only made up of 5 people. It was also with your favorite teacher, Mr Berry. Mr Berry also taught English, but only for grade 9 and 10. Yet you were lucky enough to get him this year as your skills teach.

"Afternoon y/n." He greeted.

"Hay Mr Berry" You walked over to your desk and slumped down in it.

"Here we got a new English teacher."

"Ya and the guy is strict as hell." Screamed Isabel, who was also in your English class.

"You're telling me" you said as you slumped your face into your desk.

"Hey y/n, is it true you chucked 2 snakes out the cafeteria window at 5th lunch?" Jack asked.

"Ya but it's nothing special."

"You kidding, videos are blowing up like wildfire!" Scott said.

"Really?" You lift your head back up and pull out your phone.

"Ya look up snake girl saves scary cat on YouTube." Scott replied.

You click on YouTube and search to find a few results. Each happening in your school. You click on the first video to see it had received 10,000 views in the last 45 minutes. In it was a funny chace sound track as Spencer ran ways from the snakes. Then when you picked up the snakes "we will rock you" played in the background. At the end of the video was you standing heroically and Spencer with a fuming red face. The text read "y/n 1. Spencer 0" before the video ended.

"You famous y/n." Isabel shouted.

You smile a bit. You have never been popular before. But what would Spencer say after seeing all these videos? He would surely come after you, and that would only cause more trouble.

"Alright everyone, yes this afternoon was eventful, but now we need to get to work." Mr berry said as he grabbed a stack of packets and passed them out.

"Do we have to?" Jack asked.

"Yes, this week will be covering time management."

The whole class groaned at that. Nobody liked packets, but he always assigned them at the beginning of the week. One week was flexible, another was teamwork. They were more like mini evaluations to see what you needed help with. Most fished the packet in a day, others took the whole week. You got through half the packet by the time the bell rang.

"Alright I'll see you all tomorrow!" Mr Berry said as you all packed up and left. You sigh as you stand up, leaving the room. You were tired and ready to get home.You walked out into the busy hallway. At Least it was easy to blend in with all the other kids. Eveyone to busy trying to get to there cars or buses.

Thankfully you didn't have to worry about that today. No sitting on the bus for a half hour then walking home. Instead you went back to "Mr John's" classroom hoping to catch a ride home.

"I'm back." You say coming into the room.

"Don't you know how to knock?" Frollo asked from his desk. He looked to be doing something on his new laptop, possibly grading.

"Yes, but you're the one who came to my school." You say as you take a seat at one of the desks."So how was your day?"

"Brutal, how any of you survive in this world is beyond me. At least my last class was well behaved."

"It's tech kids, no one is nice. Except for the honors kids." You sigh "if only I were that smart."

"What makes you say that?" He asked looking up from his laptop.

"It's my IEP, I need a lot of help and most of the teachers who teach the honors classes aren't SPED certified. You need really good grades and a recommendation to get in. I could have gotten into honors English this year but I turned it down thinking it would be too hard. But you can probably tell, I regret that decision." You stated.

"You know you will never succeed unless you push yourself, right?"

"I know, so when's our ride getting here?"

"Rourke should be here soon. Till then why don't you get started on an assignment." He said, turning back to the laptop in front of him.

You pull out your chromebook and begin on the math IXL Mrs Deospan assigned. You hated ixl with a passion. Most kids did, especially the ones who didn't do so well. As you start off you get almost 20 points per question. But once you hit 80 points you need to be really careful as you only get 3 per question. Get one wrong and your back down 65 points.

At Least this one you just needed to add numbers together. You just needed to make sure you were adding the right ones and placing them in the right spot. You did this for about 20 minutes until you heard a phone go off. You look up as Frollo grabbed the phone trying to answer it but was having trouble.

"Reached technology!" He said as he finally answered the phone. "What? Oh alright, I will be down in a minute." He then hung up. "Get your stuff together, rourke is downstairs waiting for us."

You both pack up and begin to make your way to the front lobby. Once down the main startcase you smile and look up at him.

"You know Claud, having you around here might not be such a bad thing."

"Indeed, but y/n." He stopped and looked at you "Never call me by my first name."

You roll your eyes playfully as you both head out to the car. You head to the back door since Frollo took the front seat. You open the back seat door ready to climb in when a pink and blue snake slither up to you, pain and panic. You sigh as they come up. You hoped they would just slither on home but hay, who wants to do that.

"Ssssup y/n." The panic said.

You roll your eyes and step aside. "Get in."

They turn back into themselves and climb in. You then hope in and slam the door shut. You sit behind the passenger seat and buckle up.

"So how was school?"

"Just drive rourke." Frollo stated "Miserable children, why did I let hades talk me into this job."

"We got to chase a kid around like snakes." Pain said acting like a child.

"And now Spencer, what's to kill me, no thanks to you two." You scolded them.

"W..we're sorry y/n." Pain apologies

"Just don't come to school with me any more ok." You state, turning to look out the window.

The rest of the ride home was silent. As soon as you all pulled into the driveways and rourke parked the car. You jumped out and rushed to the front door.

"Hades!" You scream coming in the front door.

"He's upstairs in his room." You hear Jafar say from the living room.

You march upstairs and don't even bother to knock as you barge in. "Hades we need to talk, now!"

"Can it wait y/n." You heard him mumble. You turn to see him in his bed trying to sleep. But you could care less about his sleep since he can't care about your privacy.

"No it can't! Why on earth did you think it was a good idea to send pain and panic to school with me?!"

Heade sighed as he sat up in bed wearing a white t-shirt. "Kid, calm down ok. I didn't know they were gonna be a problem."

"Problem, hades they chase a kid around!"

"And what did the kid do to you?" He asked, crossing his arms. He had strict orders for pain and panic to only attack if someone was causing you problems.

"All he did was insult me. but now there's a video going around. And Spencer now wants to kill me!"

"Spencer, is he the kid who punched your face last week?"

"Yes, but that's besides the point. The point is I can take care of myself at school. So I would appreciate it if you guys would stay out of my way while I'm there." You say crossing your arms.

"Can I see the video?" He asked, holding his hand out.

You pull out your phone, clicking the video before handing it over. Hades watches it and smiles a bit.

"That's the kid who messed with you on Friday. He is such a scary cat!" Hades commented as he handed your phone back.

"Who knew he was scared of snakes" you giggle but then get back to your point. "But this video. It's gonna cause me so many problems. Pain and panic can't keep coming, if somebody found out they were with me I could get suspended or even expelled."

Hades rubbed his chin and thought for a moment "Alright kid, I'll stay out of your life as long as you can keep protecting yourself."

"Thank you!" You say turning to leave.

"Hold it, I'm not finished." He said as he got up and snapped his fingers, changing into his black toga. You stop but don't turn around "You clearly don't know how to defend yourself. The only reason pain and panic didn't attack you was-"

"Cause they know me." You respond during him off "but I almost hit him earlier today."
"But did you?"

You sigh and look at the ground "no. But that's because I would have gotten in trouble."
"But Spencer doesn't care, neither does the school by the look of it."

"I guess, but I've got a clean record."

"And sometimes records are made to be broken." He said placing a hand on your shoulder and turning you around. "We've been talking and think you could use some self defense training."

"Training, hades I'm not the kind to fight!" You start pushing away from him.

"Relax, no one's gonna make you fight. It's just a precaution."

You think for a moment. Maybe this was a good idea. You could protect yourself from Spencer if he ever tried to hurt you again. "Alright I'll do it, if you stay out of my school life."

"Deal!" He stuck out his hand and you both shook on it.
