From: "Safiya Ransome" Bonjour! Here's part 3! Disclaimer: I don't own Jessie, James, or any of the pokemon shown in this fic. I only own Mark and Maria. (Note: I have no idea how long this will be. I hate school!) *<* ************************ An autobiography: Jessie Part 3 ************************ A little while later I woke up, but Mark was still sleeping. I pushed him over lightly and looked out the window. It was getting dark and we were still pretty far from school. I was bored so I woke Mark up, "Hey, wake up kid." He slowly opened his eyes, "Are we at school yet?" he asked quietly. "No,thank God." I answered. Then to make matters worse Dad chimed in with his corny cheerfulness, "Is everyone recharged and ready to go?" This time Mark answered, "Not to be rude Uncle Joey, but can you get it through your head! We do not want to go!" "Okay,Okay I get it, but try to be more enthusiastic. Please!" "Forget it Dad you don't understand!" I said rather harshly. "Sorry kids but we're here." Dad replied. Then I saw it. A gigantic school which looked more like a prison at that time. "Well Jessie," Mark began, "Looks like freedom stops here." I didn't answer. About five minutes later we got out of the car, and walked inside the massive building. Once we were inside, Mark and I silently whatched my Dad sign the final papers needed for enrollment. Next we were shown to our room. After Mark and I put our bags down, we hugged my Dad good-bye. "Now, you two be good, and don't worry you can come home for Christmas. Tomorrow's the first day, so make me proud. Bye." And that was it. He left. "See you in December Uncle Joey." Mark said to himself. "So what do we do now, Mark?" I asked. "I guess we should get ready for school." he replied with a smile. And that's exactly what we did. The next morning I woke up extremely early, it was about two hours before school started so I decided to look around. Our room was medium sized with everything we needed. It had two beds, two dressers,a bathroom, closet, and even a little machine to transport our pokemon to the center downstairs. As I looked around I thought maybe I would like it here. Before I knew it an hour had passed so I went to wake up Mark. I shook him gently and he popped up. "Has the first day of imprisonment started yet?" Mark asked. "No, not yet, at least not for another hour. So go get ready." I replied. A bit later Mark and I were dressed in our uniforms. Mark wore a blue blazer, white shirt, and blue pants. I wore a blue knee length skirt, white blouse, and blue vest. "So Mark are you ready to go?" I asked. "I guess so Jessie." he answered. Just before we left Mark and I picked up our pokemon and put them in our backpacks. Soon wew arrived in the school auditorium where all the first year students had to meet. There were kids everywhere! Mark and I were kind of nervous. After all the kids settled down the principal got up to speak. He made the entire welcome to Pokemon Tech speech, which was extremely boring. Next we were sent to our first class. The desks in the room were set up in groups of four. Mark and I were seated with a purple haired boy and an aqua haired girl. The teacher began her own little welcome speech so I decided to make some new friends. "Hi," I began, "My name is Jessica Musashi, call me Jessie. Then Mark introduced himslef, "My name is Mark Niaski. I'm Jessie's cousin." At first the purple haired boy hesitated,but the he spoke up, "Uh... My name is James. James Kojiro." "Nice to meet you James. Who's that next to you?" I asked. "Oh my name is Maria Sugimori. I'm James' roomate." It seemed as if the teacher would go on forever, so we talked for the rest of the time. We only went through half the days classes and we had the rest off. Students were allowed to go outside and train our pokemon if they wanted. So that's what we did. As Mark and I walked out of the building we were confronted by two bullies. "Hey Christmas kids!" Bully #1 yelled to us. I turned around."Excuse me? Are you talking to me and my cousin?" I asked. "Who else?" Bully #2 replied. Then I walked over to them, "Why are you calling us Christmas Kids?" "Do you see any other pair of kids with red and green hair?" Bully #1 said. This is where my tough side came out. I was really P.O'ed. Even at this age NO ONE insulted *MY* hair color! I could see flames in Mark's eyes, he felt the same way about his green hair. "Do you want to settle this with a battle?!" I said with rage in my voice. "I accept your challenge, little girl!" Bully #1 replied. He really tripped a nerve when he called me little girl. "We'll help you Jessie!" Mark said with James and Maria standing behind him. Our first battle was about to begin. Battle Mode: On (I got this from Globie!) -------------------------------- Jessie: Let's do this! Go Ekans! Steve (Bully #1): An Ekans! Go Butterfree! Mark: This is your first battle Sandshrew! Go! Jordan (Bully #2): You kids can't win! I choose Nidorino! James: Fire can take care of that thing! Go Growly! Maria: Hey don't leave me out! Staryu I choose you! Steve: Four against two! That's not fair! Butterfree stun spore! Jessie: Ekans! Tackle from underground! Mark: Sandshrew! Follow Ekans' attack! (Both Ekans and Sandshrew tackle Butterfree.) Steve: Butterfree Return! It's up to you now Jordan! Jordan: Alright Nidorino! Poison Pin! James: Destory that thing with ember Growly! (Growly fries Nidorino.) Maria: My turn! Staryu wash them away with water gun! Now! Jordan and Steve: Looks like ::Gurgle:: we're ::bubble:: screwed! ----------------------------------- Battle Mode: Off "That was wicked!" Mark exclaimed. "Yeah our pokemon are the coolest!" I said. "Bullies were never that easy before!" Maria and James said at the same time. About half the school saw that battle, and it was known that Jessie, James, Mark, and Maria were not to be messed with. We got the year off to a good start! End of Part 3 ****************** Wasn't as short this time huh? Don't make me beg. jaden02@hotmail.com Jaden Nehisi Ransome ;)
