[[CHAPTER 4]]

Ok, this is a bit boring. But the next one I'm going to make more interesting with bonuses! I'll explain those in the next one. Anyways, this one is just to lead into Chapter 5. So bare with me!

It was the third week that the girls have been in East Kingdom High School and yet it seams that there are still more people to meet. Mel and Desi enter their third period class, math, and found in the teacher’s desk a blonde boy with blue eyes. He seemed to be very clam as the class looked to be chaotic. The girls looked around to see if there was a place for them to sit and at the very top Vincent and a boy from GYM class were calmly waving at them.

As the girls made their way to them, they realized that the boy next to Vincent was Roy Mustang. They knew him very well since he was in GYM with them and in science. He and Axel would play around in science class. They seemed to be the pyromaniacs of the class when partnered together…

Anyways!

Finally the girls made it through the backpacks of doom, the aerial attacks of paper air-planes, and random objects of pain and sat down on either side of the boys.
(Desi on the right of Vincent and Mel on the left of Roy.)

“It’s been a strange day, huh?”
Roy was looking at Mel first then to Vincent and Desi.

“Yes it has. I wonder what is going on.”
Mel answered as she looked around.
She then tries to hide a laugh as some kid tripped over his own backpack of doom!

~*~*~*~*~
Earlier that morning for the girls, Clara in first period was pulled out of class by the real teacher into the hall and yelling could be heard loud and clear, even with the door closed. The girls figured it was because of the ten page report. Then for second period, art, the hall was closed off with a sign saying that everyone could leave but had to be back for the next class.
~*~*~*~*~

After Mel, along with Roy and Desi (Vincent was smirking), stopped laughing, the boy in the teacher’s chair stood and got everyone’s attention.

“Hello, I’m Cloud. As you can tell, your teacher is away.”

Vincent then whispered in their small group, “The teacher was actually fired because of his anger issue and wanted to take over being principal.”

“So now I am your new teacher for the time being.”
Right when Cloud said that, everyone cheers with joy and relief.
The girls had to agree with everyone. Though they never got in trouble with the teacher, they have seen him explode on random kids in the first three rows of the class.

Cloud smiles as the cheering went on.
“Alright, settle down! Now as most of you know, the day has started strangely. The reason is that we all must go to the auditorium for some announcements for special events for the year and for how to tryout for a play in drama class. ”

A few kids groan as some others cheer. Cloud once again got everyone to settle down and told everyone to start heading to the auditorium. Everyone gather their things and walk out of the class room and followed Cloud.

“What special events does this school have?”
Desi asked as they were surrounded by other students.

“I wouldn’t really call all of them special. There is mostly baking, Community Earth help, Booster clubs, and…”
Roy cuts in on Vincent.

“…Science fair!”
Roy had a bit of a fiery spark in his eyes.
Seeing this, the girls already knew it would be best to stay out of that event.
Something might go BOOM!

As everyone entered, they were handed a small packet and were seated. Once everyone was settled in, the main principal took the stage. The principal seemed serious looking. He has black hair, with a strange piece of hair sticking out. He also had a slight beard and glasses on. Along with a tux, of course!

As he takes the microphone, he scans the room with almost a glare on his face.
“Hello, students. As all of you know, I am the head principal, Mr. Hughes. Now before we announce the special events and drama tryouts, I want everyone to take out the photo in your packets.”

As the girls did, a screen was being let down from the ceiling and a projector was set up.

“What the…?”
Roy was looking at the photo that everyone was to take out.

The girls look down and see the photo was a picture of a little girl in a cute dress, brown hair in pig-tails, and is smiling away.

“Huh?”
The girls were confused, as well as everyone else.

Suddenly the screen had a large picture of the same little girl!
“Isn’t she adorable! This is my daughter, Elicia! She looks so much like her mother!”

Mr. Hughes was suddenly jumping around with the biggest smile on his face and lovey dovey eyes as he looks at the screen! This was not expected from the main principal.

“Oh I have so much more to show you all!”
He quickly changes the picture.

“This is her in our backyard in her little pool! Look at her in her cute swimsuit!”

The teachers and the other principals were shaking their heads. He must have really bugged them with his pictures of his daughter!

Quickly, one of the principals stopped him and his picture show and took the microphone away. Mr. Hughes suddenly looked depressed…

“Well that was…Strange?”
Mel was watching the depressed Mr. Hughes sit down off to the side and then back at the photo he gave every student.

“That’s Mr. Hughes for ya!”

The girls, along with Vincent and Roy, quickly turn around to see…Two Roxases?!
Right next to them were Axel and Reno, who were laughing at the girls because they were the only ones with shocked faces. They soon snapped out of it as a hand was waved in their faces. The first Roxas then moved his hand away and smiled at them as a hello. Or was it the second Roxas?

The girl looked at each other then back at the clones, studying them carefully. They realized that one of them had a darker color of blonde hair and a darker shade of blue eyes. The Roxas they knew was brighter than that! With a smile they turned to Roxas.

“We didn’t know you had a clone!”
Mel and Desi laughed at what they called the other ‘Roxas’.
As did the red headed twins!

“Hey I’m not a clone!”
‘Roxas’ said with a fake pout.
“The name is Ven. You two must be Mel and Desi.”

He held out a hand and shook Desi and Mel’s hand.

“I’m sorry girls, I forgot to tell you about my older brother. He has been sick and at work for the past few weeks.”
Roxas had a hand behind his head, scratching nervously with a smile.

Reno and Axel then gasped!
“How could you?! Forgetting your own brother!”

They began to ‘cry’ as they hugged each other.

“I would never forget you, Axel!”
Reno was now ‘sobbing’.

“And I would never forget you too, Reno!”
Axel was treating their little act as if they were about to die.
Oh what great actors these twins are!

The girls were laughing at the twins and the others rolled their eyes.

Roy waited for the Reno and Axel to finish their act before he spoke.
“Speaking of older brother, we now have your eldest brother as our teacher now, Roxas.”

“No way! Cloud is your older, OLDER brother?!”
Desi was shocked at this! Though they do have the same blonde hair and blue eyes, nothing else matched.

Mel gave Roxas a stern look.
“Are there any other brothers we should know about? Or maybe sisters? Like Namine?”

Ven began to speak for his brother.
“No! No! She is Riza’s little sister.”

As soon as Ven said her name, the girls noticed Roy had a bit of pink on his cheeks. They smiled knowing that he must have a crush on this girl.

“Who? Do we get meet her?”
Mel asked.

Roy quickly answered.
“Yeah, this weekend! She is going to have a get together BBQ at her place. It perfect to see her!”

Vincent mumbled…
“More like so he can see her.”

“Roy and Riza sitting in a tree! K-I- *whack!*”
Axel’s little song was interrupted by a slap to the head from Reno.

“Hush, brother! Be nice!”

Roy now had red cheeks as he turned around and gave his attention back to the teachers.
The other soon did too.

~.::SKIP!::.~

Axel bursts through the doors leading outside with Reno behind him.
“Finally! The weekend is here and I also don’t have homework! FOR THE FIRST TIME!”

This outburst caused the girls to look towards the door from their usual spot and shake their heads at him.

As the twin made their way to the girls, Cloud, Ven, and Roxas walk up to them as well.

“Hey Mel!”
Ven said with a smile.

“Hey Desi!”
Roxas did the same.

Cloud smiles at the girls too.
“So you two are the ones who Roxas and Ven were talking about. Well I just want you girls to know that we will be coming to get you two tomorrow for the BBQ!”
“You know where we live?”
Mel and Desi asked in unison.

Cloud laughs!
“You two need to get out more! We are right next door to you!”

“They are?!”
Apparently this is news for Ven and Roxas too.

Cloud nodes his head at them and sigh at the fact that they don’t get out much either.

“Here we were going to ask them if we could escort them to the BBQ and we were beet to it.”

Everyone turned to the left to see Kadaj was the one who spoke. Behind him were his brothers, Yazoo and Loz.

Everyone tensed up, but Cloud. The girls were still a bit timid of the silver trios, but why wasn’t Cloud?

“Sorry guys. You can walk them home though! We have other things to do before heading home. Bye!”
Cloud and his brother then left.
As they did, Ven and Roxas gave the girls a worried look.

“No way, yo!”
Reno was suddenly in front of the girls, between them and the trio.
“We were going to walk them home!”

Suddenly a phone went off and Axel pulled out his cell phone.
“Hello?”

“AXEL! RENO! YOU TWO WERE TO CLEAN THE HOUSE BEFORE YOU LEFT FOR SCHOOL! GET HOME RIGHT NOW! YOU BETTER HOPE MY BOSS WILL BE LATE FOR DINNER!”

“Ok! We are on our way!”
Axel quickly shuts his phone and grabs his brother.
“We got to go! Bye!”

“What a loud mother…”
The girls mumble.

“*ahem* Well then…shall we go?”
Loz helped the girls up and they were on their way home.
