Chapter 7
It was now lunch and no one would let Tyson live down how badly he did on his report card. Exept for Ray, because he's... Ray (suck ass reason but it'll have to do!... talk about making myself seem stupider than i am), Max, mainly because Tyson was his best friend and he didn't want to make him feel worse (best reason i've come up with yet), and Kai, not because he didn't find it amusing (let's just say he didn't find Syd and Kori all that bright and leave it at that), but because... Well because he's Kai (yet another oh so 'wonderful' reason but again it will have to do... huh. this paragraph seems to be useless authour's notes...).
"Can you just stop?" Tyson begged. "You're all taking away the comfort that food usually brings (...i made him sound like a girl...)!"
Syd looked at him for half a second. "Meh. I guess, but you're not exactly gonna be the best person to be around for the next month so we wanna tourture you while it's fun and not painfully easy like that stupid history quiz that we had to take."
"If you're so brilliant, about how many soldiers died during WWII? (not that i think she'd need to ask that...)" Kori asked, not thinking that Syd would know the answer.
"17 million," Syd replied, not even thinking about it.
Kori pulled out the paper Kilvish had given them (this is partially based on an actual experience) the day before Syd was allowed in school. "Damn it!" she shouted after finding what she was looking for. "How about civilians then?"
"35 million," Syd said, again without thinking. "Not that that was actually on the quiz but whatever."
"I hate it when you're right," Kori muttered. "Especially when you've missed three weeks."
"And yet I got most of the work from you, if memory serves for the first time since I met you," Syd said.
"Kori, why are you asking Syd how many soldiers and civilians were died during World War II?" Tala asked.
"Because I can," Kori answered, annoyed with her best friend, who happened to have a laughing smile on her face. She ignored it then remembered something. "Oh yeah. Tyson?"
"Yeah?" Tyson muttered, still depressed.
"Me and Syd have a message for you," Kori said. Tyson looked at her and Syd. "Syd, why don't you start?"
"As much as we hate sounding like my mother," Syd began, then continued with Kori, "IF YOU TRIED HARDER IT WOULDN'T BE SO BAD!!"
Tyson's head hit the table so hard the table almost folded. "I hate you both."
"Meh. We have a point," Syd said. "Do you know how many times we've been told that by my mother, Kori's mom and, for some unknown reason, your grandpa?"
"I lost count after 500," Hilary said.
"Not that we were talking to you..." Syd muttered under her breath. Hilary didn't hear it--or pretended she didn't at any rate. "Kori's gonna kill me for saying this--"
"Then don't say it," Kori interrupted.
"I'm gonna say it anyway," Syd said. "I'm bored." Kori smacked her. Hard enough to knock her out of her chair. And get up to smack Kori even harder.
The two were going to start a fight but they suddenly remembered the incident from three weeks ago, after being reminded by Ray.
"I hate it when we forget things like that," Kori mumbled.
Syd nodded. "I agree." She threw her trash away in the barrel that was right behind her.
A certain brunette walked up, causing Syd to glare. "I'm only here to tell you something," Sarah muttered unwillingly.
Syd laughed. "As if you'd tell me anything that would be even slightly useful."
Sarah glared at the black and blue haired girl. "As if I would want to," she said. "I'm being forced to by our assistant principal."
"Please continue," Syd said, slightly annoyed.
"You are now being forced to be a tour guide and helper of a new student," Sarah informed the now furious teen, "not that I'm convinced that you'd be a better influence on the new person than I would."
Syd looked at her. "As much as I hate to say this, I'm the better tour guide as I haven't gotten lost since the first day of school," she said, somehow managing to keep herself from punching the table or some other thing that could end up in the way.
Sarah didn't look far from punching Syd or finding some other way to hurt her. But, not wanting to get suspended, she huffed and walked away.
Syd stuck her tounge out at the retreating girl's back.
"Syd, your maturity level is decreasing rapidly," Kenny said. Syd gave him a look that clearly said she had no idea what the hell he jsut said.
"He meant that you're getting more immature," Kori translated.
"Oh," Syd said, not at all bothered by the fact that she was suddenly found as a complete and total idiot.
"I don't understand how she can be made to seem stupid and not be bothered by it," Tala said to whoever happened to be listening.
"That's because I know I know I'm an idiot." Everyone that wasn't Kori or Kai stared at Syd in shock. Kori just continued eating. Kai... was being Kai (...). "Is there a problem?" Syd asked, slightly annoyed by the staring.
"Uh... no," all but Syd, Kai and Kori answered, turning their focus somewhere else.
"Okay," Syd shrugged. The others sweatdropped.
"Syd, you have serious issues," Kori said. Syd shrugged again.
"I know that," she said. "It's one of the things that I actually want to remember and remember." This statement caused question marks to appear over her friends heads. She sighed and explained, "I mean I usually forget things that I want to remember and remember things I want to forget. Got it?" Her friends nodded.
"So what else do you remember that you want to remember?" Tala asked.
"The names of most of my family members, my friends, what I refuse to eat, what I refuse to do, what I don't like to do..." Syd trailed off, thinking. "I think that's it..."
"You," Kori said. "You are an idiot."
"I know!" Syd responded cheerfully. The others sweatdropped. She grinned.
!!After school!!
Syd, Kori, Kai, Hilary, Tala, Tyson, Ray, Max, and Kenny were walking... Somewhere. They hadn't really decided where.
"I know what we can do!" Kori yelled suddenly.
"Hell no," Syd said.
"Will you stop that?" Kori asked.
"No," Syd answered.
"Let's all go to my house and play Truth or Dare!" Kori yelled.
"Exactly why I said 'hell no'," Syd muttered.
