> TAWOS > by Silver Butcher > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > To School we go > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spike looked up at Twilight as she looked through the book she had set up on a pedestal. he cleared his throat so she would look at him. "Are you sure?" He asked "This feels like a bad Idea" "Spike trust me, this spell is safe, I'm gonna transport you from one Dimension to another, it worked on the apples, the benches, and several over items..." "But why do I need to be the first Living subject?" Spike asked as he brushed off his hat, he was wearing a cowboy hat, a Brown Jacket with a white undershirt, he had Brown Jeans and was barefoot. "May I ask what's up with the Cowboy get up?" Spike looked up at her "It was either this or pay up 400 Bit's to Bigmac." "I told you not to make any more Hoofball bets, you always bet on the worst team!" Twilight said as she re-read her notes on her dimensional displacement spell, "Wait did you just change the subject on me!?" Spike asked once he realized she hadn't answered his question, her response was to clear her throat and throw down her googled "Why don't I have Googles!?" Twilight pointed at him "hold onto your Hat, this might sting!" Spike grabbed his hat when her words really hit him "WAIT STING!?" Spike looked up just in time to be hit in the face by the Spell, Suddenly Spike turned blue watched as his body started being taken apart into little blocks "THIS I A LOT WORSE THAN A STING!" He yelled angrily as he was teleported off. Spike opened his eye's and saw the ground, "Mother." he said as he fell face-first into the ground he dusted himself off and looked around then down at himself "Well, I'm not a dog so...whoa!" Spike looked at his hands, "I look like a Cartoon Character!" he yelled as he looked around at himself "Weird" he walked out of the Alleyway he was in and looked around and yet again froze, across the street a Walking Catus was talking to a Blue Balloon. Spike shook his head "Alright, so I'm in a Cartoon." He looked up "I'd like to leave...Twilight?" He asked when he heard a clanking sound and turned to see a Trashcan glowing Blue "WAIT!" He yelped as the Trashcan started turning into cubes, he jumped for it and made it just in time for the Trashcan to be teleported away and for him to faceplant against the wall "Oh no." he said as he looked at the spot, he stood in silence then yelled angrily spitting fire into the air "WHY WASN'T I TOLD NOT TO MOVE!!" As he yelled angrily at the sky, the Cactus and Balloon noticed him "Who's that?" Carmen asked "Never seen him before," Alan said as he flew closer "Must be some new Kid!" He looked down at his Girlfriend "We should greet him" Carmen looked over at him "I think He's yelling at the sky." "Maybe it's a Dragon thing," Alan said as he flew over, Spike had just stopped yelling angrily at nothing when Alan got to him "Hello." He said jolly, Making Spike flinch "Who! Ninja Balloon!" Spike pointed at him "Make your presence know sooner next time pal, I could have popped you!" Spike looked at the balloon for a second then blinked "I'm talking to a Balloon." he realized as the Balloon offered Spike his String "I'll be sure to remember, anyway my name is Alan, Nice to meet you?" Spike shook his String awkwardly "I'm Spike." Carmen looked up at him "That's a weird name." Spike looked down at her and took off his hat, instantly the Spike's on his head stuck out, Carmen looked up at them "But appropriate" She noted as Spike put his hat back on and she offers her hand "I'm Carmen" Spike shook her hand "And once again I'm Spike." He said with a nod, he looked at them awkwardly "And I have no idea where I am" he Declared. Carmen and Alan looked down at the Spike Shaped imprint on the ground "You fall asleep while flying?" Carmen asked Spike opened his mouth when he realized this was his moment "Yes," He said as his wings popped out of the back of his Jackey "I was just, you know, seeing the sights." "and your Parents?" Alan asked "Um...I don't really know them." Spike said awkwardly, Alan and Carmen looked at each other than Spike "So What I'm hearing," Carmen said, "Is that you just fell from the sky from who knows where, no idea where you are, and no family?" Spike nodded "Where do you go to school?" Alan tried "Never been," He said, with this, he suddenly had a Balloon and A Cactus dragging him out of the alley and down the Sidewalk "Well Spike, This is Elmore, and We'd be more than happy if you'd stay awhile." Spike looked at them and sighed "Got nowhere else to go," he said as he looked around "So why not." "Great, once Principle Brown here's this I'm sure he'll help you enroll," Alan said as Spike's eye's widened "Hold up now, I never agreed to no schooling!" "How old are you?" "12," He said bluntly then blinked "ah dang, I should 'have lied" as the two dragged him to the school he sighed and started walking with them "Alright, not like I have anything else to do." he picked up Carmen and Alan and started running "To school we go!" He ran for half a minute before stopping "And where might this school be?" he asked. Alan used his string to point to their left "It's right down their" Spike turned down the street and made his way down the road, once he saw the building he whistled "Nice looking place" he said as he made his way to the building he looked up at it and sighed "Alright no going back" he walked in and placed his new friends down, "Lead the way to this Principle Brown fellow" he said as they took point and lead him to the office. > New Friends. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Carmen and Alan stood outside the Principals office for a while until Spike walked back out with a piece of paper "I've been enrolled into Mrs.Simians Class," he said bluntly, he jumped when the other two cheered "That's our class!"Alan said "Lucky for you we found you hu?" Carmen said with a shake of her head "Never been to School," She grabbed his hand and lead him along with Alan floating overhead. "There are so many people in our class, you're bound to befriend some of them" Alan stated as they made their way to the class, Carmen opened the door and opened it to the loud class, before they could enter an old Monkey in a dress stood in their way "This world has everything," Spike thought as she looked down at them "You two are late...and who might you be?" Spike's response was to hand her the Piece of paper. she looked over it "New student...well Spike, I am your Teacher Mrs.Simion, and I like to welcome you...BUT THAT DOESNT CHANGE THE FACT THAT YOU WHERE ALL LATE, DETENTION!" She yelled as she pointed them in, as Spike walked in he leaned in "What's a Detention?" "Means you stay after school." "Oh joy" Spike muttered as Carmen pointed him to an empty seat, he sat in it and looked to his left, and looked into the eyes of a T-Rex, they stared at each other, and Spike blinked "Not even surprised," He thought as the T-Rex looked him over, then said "Nice hat," Spike said the first thing that came to mind "Nice Teeth." He replied "Thanks" it Replied before turning to look forward, he looked around at his Classmates, there was an Eyeball, some sort of Rainbow Blob, a golden thing, Living Ice Cream, an 8-bit Spider, and many other things, but what caught his immediate attention was a Orange Goldfish who was looking back at him from the front of the class. It waved enthusiastically at him, Spike gave a wave back, "Alright Settle Down, first we have a new Student, Spike." When Spike gave no indication he had heard her she turned around and started writing on the chalkboard. Spike looked ahead and started mentally taking notes. -Lunch Time- as the class made their way off to lunch Spike was Greeted by Carmen and Alan once again "So Make any friends?" "A T-Rex said I have a nice hat," Spike said as he followed them to "and the Rainbow Glob said he'd be my friend for 20 bucks." "You Mean Tina?" "That Blob was Girl?" "No, The T-Rex!" "Oh...Nice to Now my Seat Neighbor's Name." as he was walking he felt something weird on his foot he picked it up to see a squashed piece of Bread "What?" "I think you stepped on Anton." "Oh..." Spike scraped it off his foot and watched it fall to the floor "I'm sure he'll be fine." Spike said as he continued on his way. "Yeah, happens all the time" Alan replied when Spike noticed the Orange Fish walking next to him "Hello!" "Afternoon" Spike Replied offering his hand for a shake, with the Fish happily took "I'm Darwin, Pleasure to meet you." he said, "It's not often we get to meet new people." Spike took off his hat, allowing his Spines to pop out, and gave Darwin a polite bow. "Not often people Greet me so nicely on the first meeting." "I like you Spines," A Female voice said making him jump, he turned to see a Cartoonish Dinosaur "Oh, Thanks, I was named Spike Cause they look like Spikes." Spike put his hat back on, "Clever I know" he added sarcastically, then turned back to the Dinosaur "I'm sorry, your name is?" "Molly" "Pleasure to meet you," He said again, taking off his hat Politely. he then directed a Question at all of them "Any Idea what's for lunch" A few minutes later Spike looked at the slop on his plate. "And I was starting to like this place" he muttered as he poked at the food, he scooped some of it up and took a bite, "Nope" he declared as he spat it out "I ain't eating that!" He threw the food away and looked around, "Must be something better to eat around here." he sat back down and looked over at his new friends who seemed to be enjoying a romantic lunch. he looked around for a moment and got up, "time to meet new people" he got up took a step and walked into a metal object "Ow," he grumbled as he looked down at a Robot who had turned to him "Do you require something?" It Asked. "Yeah, you wouldn't happen to know where a guy can get some good grub would ya?" The Robot eye showed a loading sign, then said "What do you require to eat?" "how about a Saphire?" "Acquiring Saphire," it said and with a blast, it shot through the roof, Spike looked up at the hole "Well shoot, Didn't think he'd go find one for me," Spike said as he stood looking up at the ceiling, as he waited to see if it would really come back, he was suddenly cast in a Large shadow, he turned and saw the T-Rex Tina and some orange thing looking at him. "So you're the new meat I've heard about?" The Orange thing said as she took a step towards him and looked him up and down. "You Don't look so tuff." "I've been told" Spike responded as the Thing Grabbed his arm and shook it "Hm, but I do feel some muscle here" It Looked up at him "But not much" Before Spike could retort the Robot Landed next to him and handed him a dirt-covered Saphire "Saphire Acquired." "You asked Bobert to get you..." "Lunch!" Spike cheered as he grabbed it and took a Bite, the Orange thing and Tina looked on in shock as he ate the Crystal like a candy Bar, after finishing up Spike licked his lips "I need that" he Looked down at the Orange thing, with had an impressed look on its Face "Alright, I'm Impressed, Ever need some "Friends" Come to talk to Tina and Me, we can hang." "Can I at least get your name?" "Jamie." "Spike" he responded with a polite tip his hat, once again showing off his Spines, "And I've already established your name as Tina." Tina took a Large Step and offered Spike her Tiny hand, Spike shook it "Nice to make both of your Acquaintances," Spike said, "Anyone else I become friends within this arrangement?" "Well, there is Anton." Jamie Said, Spike looked bluntly at her "Oops," "Oops? Oops, what?" Jamie Questioned "I totally stepped on that guy," Spike said, Tina and Jamie looked at him, then Laughed "I knew you where my kind of guy" Jamie Laughed as she and Tina left "I'm Never Letting Anton live this down!" Spike watched them leave. "They seemed cheery." Spike decided as the bell rang for Recess. Spike made his way outside and sat on a bench, next to him sat a Paper Bear, who eyed him and scooted away pretty well for a 2-D Bear made of Paper, Spike figured it was because she didn't want to be close to him since he could breathe fire. "Nice Day" He tried, he looked back at her and found she had moved to the next bench over "HEY! That was just mean!" Spike muttered as he leaned on his arm, the Bear looked at him then asked "on a scale of 1 to 10, how Clean are you?" "Um...Like how Clean Am I at the start of each day, or just right now?" Spike asked turning to her "Both," she replied "Oh...um at the start, 9 out of 10, now...probably 6 out of 10" she Scoffed "9, I give myself a 9, I srub myself every morning, I keep everything clean, everything in my house washed and dried twice, I'm never below 8!" "Oh, um...I just set myself on fire and wash my clothes." "you do what!?" "I'm a Dragon...and nothing kills germs quite like Fire." Spike blew fire on his hand and waved at her, she was now sitting next to him and grabbed his hand, Spike waited, then heard her gasp "This is Remarkably clean, hm...but I can't can't set myself on fire..." "I also take 7-hour bubble baths, so I guess that would also help in the factor." The Bear shook his clean hand "I'm Teri, and your name is Spike right?" "Indeed," Spike said, " And it's a pleasure to meet you Teri" he gave her a tip of his hat and he spent the rest of his Recess listening to her talk about cleaning products, diseases, and how many different ways germs could kill. It was better than doing nothing at least. "This place is Weird, and the people here are all amusing to be around, I can stand to stay until Twilight figures out how to get me back," He thought as he listened to Teri "After all, I've already made quite a few friends."
