BLAZE POV~~~~~~~~~~~
It's now my second week of highschool at Broken Arrow High and it's going great as usual.
It's a lovely wednesday, and everyone seems so stressed about the work but it seems so simple to me. I'm just thankful that I get to experience high school.
I sat at my desk listening to our teacher lecture on and on about English until a knock on the door interrupted the class.
The assistant principal poked her head in.
"Can I borrow Mrs. Blaze the cat, please?" She ask for me nicely..
The students around me looked at me as I picked up my things and follow the women out the door..
Now what's this about?
Oh wait. It must be Auntie Jennifer wanting to speak with me.
But what for?
I walk with the women as he led me to the principals office.
Once I got to Auntie Jennifer's door
I could hear her speaking to someone, and she did not sound happy.
" Principal Griffin?" I asked poking my head in. Her frown softened as she relaxed in her chair.
"Ah, Blaze. you're here. Please take a seat."
I does as she says and take a seat. I then turned to my left to look at the student that Auntie Jennifer was basically yelling at.
I met eyes with him. It was that Black Hedgehog with red stripes.
They honestly looked cool.
His glare caught me off guard though.
He's always like this?
"Shadow. I know you're angry, but don't glare at my niece like that..."
Auntie Jennifer sighs.
"Niece?" Shadow questions.
What am I doing here with him?
Well at least I'm aware he knows how to speak.
"I know what you two are thinking. Let me explain. First of all,Shadow. This is our newest student, Blaze I'm sure you've seen her around and about. She is already one of our best students, and I want her keeping an eye on you for a while." Auntie Jennifer glares down at Shadow.
"I'm am The Ultimate Lifeform!! Why on earth would I need a babysitter!? " He ask.
His voice is deeper than what I was expecting..not sure what I was expecting.
"Oh! I'm glad you asked." Auntie sarcastically gasp. " You're grades are getting lower and lower. We both know how much you don't want to stay here another year, but it seems that is the road we're gonna be taking...
also you need to be attending ALL of your classes.." Auntie looks through a few papers that seems to be Shadow's grades.
Oooo someone's failing..
I glance at him as he rolls his eyes at my Aunt. How disrespectful.
"Anyways. Blaze will be letting me know if she sees you doing anything fishy or skipping. Right Blaze?" She asks me.
"Oh-uh yes ma'am." I nod.
The office went silent for a few moments as if Auntie was thinking..
"Shadow, you're dismissed." She close her eyes.
I watched as Shadow gets up angrily and stomps out the office.. mumbling a few words.
I have to deal with that?
I wish I could have gotten a warning..
"Blaze? Do you remember what I told you last week?" I look back over to Aunti Jennifer with a faint smile on her face.
Of course Auntie.
~~~~~*last week*
"Now listen well Blaze for what I am about to tell you."
"Yes Auntie."
"A lot of these kids aren't going to give two sh*ts about you being a princess,so you won't get treated like royalty..
But that's doesn't mean you let anyone run over you-stick up for yourself and fight.ok?"
"I understand."
"Oh also have fun!"
"Haha ok Auntie"
"Also. When you do stick up for yourself or your friends. Have standards, sweetie don't scoop down to their level."
Auntie Jennifer ruffles up Blazes hair getting a light giggle out of her.
"Now go get em, little flame." Auntie Jennifer walks Blaze to the cafeteria doors.
~~~~~~~*back to reality*
"Don't forget it, Dear. You may go back to class." She smiles..
I leave the office walking back to my class.
How am I supposed to keep up with this hedgehog? Where did he even go?
I turn down a hallway to see him digging in a locker.
I walk up to the angry devil pulling out books and shoving them in his bag.
"It's Shadow,correct?" I asked.
The hedgehog stops and glances me up and down. "Yeah. Look princess Blaze, but don't expect me to be bowing for you- because I don't give two sh*ts about you being royalty." He growls.
I raise both of my eyebrows.
"Just Blaze is fine, no princess needed. Also, I'd never want a face like yours bowing near me-you might get my shoes dirty."
Shadow stares at me oddly as if surprised.
"I suppose I will be seeing you around, Shadow?" I take out my hand.
He hesitated at first but shakes it and walks away without saying anything.
Won't this be fun? What new experiences awaits for me with this Hedgehog. It's not really sarcasm.
I'm generally interested..
Anyways back to English I go..
~~~~~~~~SHADOW'S POV~~~~~~~~~~~
Finally I can get a break from theese teachers and got get some food.
The bell just rung for lunch, and I'm currently putting my bag in my locker.
Principle Griffin has been the coolest principle I've had, but this sure as hell sucks. I can't believe she sent the new student to watch over me.
The freaking 'top of the class' girl.
Her freaking niece
The freaking princess.
To watch over me! ME!
The Ultimate Lifeform-I don't need a babysitter.
I slam my locker shut causing nearby students to jump. Idiots.
"Hey there, hedgy."
I begin walking to the cafeteria staring straight ahead. "What did I tell you about nicknames, Rouge?"
I heard her groan as he walks with me.
"That you hate them, not to ever to call you any,and that they are stupid."
Great she remembers. So why doesn't she listen?
"I can tell you're extra grumpy today. Want to tell me what's going on?"
Rouge asked me.
"Not now. Maybe if I feel like it later."
We walked into the busy cafeteria, got our food then took a seat at our very loud and annoying table..
Rouge begins talking to Amy as usual.
Silver and Sonic glances at me..
"Hey Shadz. Got something up your butt? You look pretty stiff." Faker laughs.
I narrow my eyes at the blue bug.
I'd punch him in the face if I could.
Apparently I'm on probation..
"Hi guys, got anything interesting?" Tikal. Greets the table with the princess trailing her.
Geez does she really need an escort?
Hmpf. Pathetic.
I glance at her to see her watching me as well across the table.
"Something on my face, princess?"
I growl.
The heck she looking at. I'm aware I'm attractive, but starring won't get her anywhere.
"No, nothing interesting.." She states blandly.
She is slightly different from your typical princess.. as if I cared.
Faker then grins widely for the 100th time at the princess.
"Blaze, are you ready for more self defense in gym today? I've got this new tactic that'll catch you off guard."
They're working on self defense in gym again. I could destroy everyone with my eyes close
-they're all terrible.
"I'd say you're the best there yet, Blaze."
Silver gesture.
Hahaha what? Now that's a funny joke. Hilarious. The princess being the best fighter and all around athlete? HA!
I couldn't help myself to a few chuckles.
"Wow, what has you laughing?"
"Yeah, I swear you weren't in a good mood." Amy and Rouge both ask me.
Ahh so funny.
"The thought of the princess being one of our gym class. It's just a hard no."
I explain to them.
"I'm not sure If I can believe that either.." Rouge giggles from beside me.
I'm certain she is not better than Tikal..
No offense, but she isn't a fighter at all..
"She IS pretty talented, Shadow." Tikal defends her.
"You might want to watch yourself, buddy." Faker smirks. "Because I think Blaze may have you on this one."
My smirk disappeared quickly.
"Seriously?.." I mumbled.
You can't tell me this isn't a joke.
"How about instead of skipping you come to gym class?" The princess implies while she dust off her shoulder.
She better not be trying to tell me what to do with my life. I'll skip today too if I want. "I'll give it a thought." I roll my eyes.
"I'm sure Principle Griffin would want that as well.." The Princess smirks.
Dammit. Ugh fine then.
I will destroy her in gym class in front of everyone. I still doubt she could harm a fly.
~~~~~~~
It's now the end of the day and I'm debating if this gym class even deserves my precense. Those pests.
I can't believe I have to waste my time going to this class...
I suppose I can get a real kick out of the princess trying to defend herself.
Seeing her defenseless sounds pretty funny.
Ill go see what the fuss is about..
I begin walking in the direction to the gymnasium.
"Woah Silver-look who it is." I hear Sonic say aloud.
Ugh here we go..
I ignore him and continue walking.
"You're actually coming to class?" Silver walks behind me sounding confused.
This is not a big deal anyways.
"Of course he is! He's here to get his butt kicked by Blaze." Sonic runs ahead of me then starts walking backwards.
Get MY butt kicked?
"Ha! Don't make me laugh." I roll my eyes at his annoyance..
"I'm hear to watch your little princess friend get beat. Pure entertaining for me."
They both shrug at one another..
Are they hiding something?
Whatever. I've had a frustrating day, and I need a laugh.
