As Wulf was walking up the steps of Elk Grove middle school, he took a bite out of a granola bar.
Suddenly breezing past him were Goo and Kiara.
"You're too fast!" Kiara exclaimed with a giggle.
"No, you're just too slow!" Goo cried.
Wulf smiled as he watched his students fool around.
"Morning, girls." He waved.
Goo and Kiara quickly looked up.
"Good morning, Mr. Wulf!" Goo greeted.
"Good morning!" Kiara laughed.
"Hurry up; we need to beat him!" Goo exclaimed, dragging Kiara along.
"Ha!" Kiara chuckled, making a face at Wulf.
Wulf's eyes widened.
He then smirked.
"Oh yeah?" He asked.
"Is that a challenge?" He grinned.
Clutching tightly to his bag, Wulf began to run up the steps, quickly surpassing the duo.
"Eh?!" Goo cried.
"He's fast...!" Kiara gasped.
"Not if we have anything to say about it!" Goo exclaimed, grabbing Kiara's hand as the two began to pick up speed.
Wulf quickly turned his head to ensure they weren't catching up as he continued running, bursting through the school doors.
As he was running down the hall, a hand suddenly grabbed him by the collar of his shirt.
"Mr. Wulf..." A chilling voice began.
"I can only assume that you've been inside a school setting before..."
Wulf gulped.
Crap...!
He then hesitantly turned his head around, met by the principal.
"M-mm..." He muttered.
"Now then,"
"Where did he go?!" Kiara cried.
"Crap, maybe he's already made it to the room!" Goo exclaimed.
Suddenly, two other arms grabbed the pair.
"Eh...?" Goo looked up, noticing the principal and Mr. Wulf.
"AH!" Goo shrieked.
"This is a warning," the principal slowly began.
"Next time, there will be consequences, young ones; do you understand me?" She glared.
"Y-yes, miss principal...!" The trio exclaimed as she swiftly dropped them to the floor.
After she left, Wulf stood up, helping the other two to their feet.
"More than two arms, eh...?" Wulf wondered aloud.
"Anyway," Wulf cleared his throat.
"Let's head to the room, shall we?" He said with a smirk.
"Why are you smirking..." Kiara asked, frowning.
"Oh, you know, maybe because I won..." He grinned.
"Hmph!" Goo cried, puffing her cheeks.

As they reached the end of the hallway, they noticed Sunny and Maci waiting at the door.
"Finally," Maci sighed.
"Ah, we were waiting for you!" Sunny waved.
Wulf's eye twitched.
"Girls, let me teach you a valuable lesson right here and now..." He began, placing a hand on Goo and Kiara's shoulders.
"In life, there are no winners; in fact, we're all losers in our own special ways." He said as he proceeded to unlock the door.
"That's just adult talk for not being able to admit that you lost!" Goo shrieked.
"Yeah!" Kiara echoed.
The other two girls looked at each other in confusion.
Wulf let out a hardy laugh.
"Perhaps maybe you're right..." He chuckled.
"Have a seat. The principal will be with you shortly." A woman said as a girl took a seat."I'll take it from here, thank you, Barbara." The principal said, walking into her office."Miss Yu," the principal began as the girl took a seat in front of her desk."You do know why I called you here today, yes?""I don't..." The girl whispered."Due to your academic negligence, I'm afraid I have no other choice but to send you to the failing class." The principal narrowed her eyes."As you may or may not be aware since, after all, you seemed unconscious during the entirety of the class, I was requested by your concerned parents to at least monitor you to determine your placement," she paused for a moment."But, as I said before, we have decided it would be best so as not to distract your classmates if we placed you in the class with all of the other low-grade students.""I know it is only the beginning of the academic year; however, s
As Wulf was writing on the board, the phone in his classroom rang."Teach, the phone," Nono called out."Ah, thanks, Nono!" Wulf said, quickly placing the chalk down and running towards the phone."Hello?" Wulf answered."Yes...you want me to send her down?" He questioned."Wait, really?" He continued."Okay, I'll send her then," he said, placing the phone back onto its mount."Sunny!" Wulf began."Do you mind heading towards the principal's office to run an errand for us, please?"The class suddenly shifted their attention to Sunny."Oh, sure!" Sunny said, quickly standing up."I'll be back!" She cried, closing the door behind her."Now, back to our fun little lesson!" Wulf grinned.*As she reached the principal's office, Sunny peaked her head in."Ms. Principal, an oddity is here," the secretary called out."Hmph!" Sunny puffed her cheeks."Perfect, send her in."
As Bebe was walking home from class, she heard someone running. She turned her head to see Nono."Hey, I told you to wait!" Nono cried."Well, I didn't hear you..." Bebe grumbled."It's so warm out for the fall, isn't it?" Nono grinned."What's with you? Why are you in such a good mood today?" Bebe questioned, raising an eyebrow."I don't know; I guess because it's just so peaceful here..." Nono smiled sheepishly."Anyway," she began."I wanted to talk to you about-""Whatever it is, I don't have time." Bebe huffed."Well, if you let me talk,""I don't want to hear it..." Bebe warned."Bebe-""Listen!" Bebe cried, startling Nono."We're almost in high school now, and it's time for a change..." She narrowed her eyes."I..." She looked down steadily."I don't want to be a loser anymore...!" She cried.Nono's eyes widened. She opened her mouth then quickly shut it."Do
By the time Nono finally arrived home, it was already dark out. Unlocking the door to her house, she was greeted by no one, an only child with her father still at work who wouldn't be home for at least another couple of hours. Climbing the stairs, she went to her bedroom. Sitting on her bed, she looked around the room. "Mama..." She whispered. "What do I do...?" She bit her lip. "My best friend suddenly hates me; I have no friends at school..." "Plus, I'm in the class of oddities, automatically deeming me a freak..." Her voice began to shake. "Mama..." Tears began to well up in her eyes. "Tell me, what am I still doing here...?" She gulped as the lump in her throat swelled. "Please, mama, I miss you every single day..." She sniffled. "I promised you I'd stay strong, but..." "Was I ever really even strong in the first place...?" She smiled as tears began to run down her face.
Just as class was about to begin, Wulf began taking attendance."No, Nono today...?" He questioned.Bebe clenched her fists."Alright then, let's get started-""Sorry that I'm late, teach!" Nono cried, hustling through the door."Ah, there you are." Wulf smiled.Bebe looked steadily down as Nono took a seat at her desk next to her.*As Wulf was teaching, the bell rang, signaling the start of lunch."Man, I really have to get used to this bell system..." Wulf muttered as the girls packed up their belongings."Hey, Nono?" Wulf called out just as she was about to walk out the door."Hm?" She turned her head."Do you mind staying back for a second?" He asked."Not at all..." Nono chuckled nervously.Taking a seat on top of his desk, Wulf clapped his hands together."Now," he began."I'm sure there's no deeper meaning behind you being late," he paused.Nono froze.<
"Making a wish?" A voice called out.Startled, Wulf jumped up."C-Caitlin...!""Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you...!" She cried."You didn't come to the cafeteria with your class, so I just wanted to make sure you were ok...""Me?" He chuckled."Oh, I'm fine!" He beamed.Caitlin blushed."R-right...!" She nodded her head."Anyway...!" She cleared her throat."I was just wondering; do you maybe want to chat at the café again after school?""O-oh yeah, totally!" Wulf smiled."Great!" Caitlin giggled."I'll come to fetch ya after dismissal then!" She beamed."Sounds like a plan." Wulf chuckled, waving as Caitlin closed the door.*As Caitlin was heading back towards the cafeteria, she hummed to herself."Oh my..."Caitlin quickly jumped, turning to see Ms. Rouge sitting on a nearby staircase."H-hey, Rouge...!" Caitlin chuckled nervously."
As they got to the café and sat down at a booth, Wulf stretched his arms."Man, I'm famished!" He cried."Well, I can imagine since you didn't eat lunch!" Caitlin exclaimed with a giggle."What should we get today...?" Wulf mumbled."Hey, Wulf...?"Wulf looked up from the menu."Hm?""I hope I'm not prying too much, especially since it's our second da-" She paused."Our second time here...!" She quickly corrected herself."But, I've been wondering..." She narrowed her eyes."What made you become a teacher in the first place...?"Wulf's eyes widened.He opened his mouth to answer when a cool breeze swept through the open window."Danny...?" He whispered."Sorry I didn't catch that-""Oh, no, nothing, I was just talking to myself is all...!" Wulf chuckled nervously."What made me become a teacher...?" He repeated the question."M-mm...!" Caitlin nodded.
Roaming the hallways after summer school finished was a boy. The boy had a delinquent-like appearance, with a jet black mohawk to boot.His head was steadily down, in his arms, a bunch of books."It's the summer, and here I am stuck in this lousy hellhole..." He grumbled."At least the librarian let me borrow these to take home..." His eyes twinkled."But geez, these are heavy..." He muttered to himself."I take it you like to read?" A voice called out.The boy, who had thought he was alone, quickly spun around.As he turned around, he was met by a slender, pale young man standing in the doorway of a classroom."D-don't go getting the wrong idea; the old bat asked me to carry these for her...!" He cried."Oh?" The man lifted a brow."What a nice young man you are to go and help out!" He exclaimed, clapping his hands together.The boy blushed."L-listen...!" He stammered."Oh, is that the first
The day had finally arrived—one that many were eagerly awaiting, some dreading, graduation. As Wulf pulled up to the school, he looked around at all the balloons. "Wow..." he whispered. "Mr. Wulf!" A voice cried. "Hey, Olivia!" He exclaimed as the girl ran over to him. "You look ready!" He beamed. "M-mm...!" She nodded enthusiastically. "Say, have you gone to your classroom yet...?" She asked. "No, why?" He frowned. "Well..." Olivia blushed. "Let's just say there are a few thank you presents some of us left for you..." She then giggled. "You guys..." Wulf smiled. "Olivia," he began. "Can I just say how proud I am of you?" He said. "E-eh...?" Olivia quickly looked up at him. "It's been an honor to be your teacher and watch you blossom, you know..." Wulf said, smiling sadly. "Thank you for all of the great efforts you've put in to get here..." He beamed.
As graduation would soon be approaching, Wulf and Caitlin still had not made up yet."You guys have your graduation practice today, right?" Wulf asked."Mmm!" Sunny nodded."What is even the point of a practice?!" Bebe huffed."Well..." Wulf chuckled."Mr. Wulf's class, Ms. Caitlin, is here to take you to your practice," the principal announced from the doorway.As the class got up, Wulf looked up at them, walking out."Man..." Wulf said."So this is really it, huh...?" He whispered, smiling sadly."Don't go getting sentimental on us now!" Nono exclaimed, with tears in her eyes."Look at you; you're crying, and yet I'm the sentimental one...?" Wulf chuckled."S-stop...!" Nono sniffled."C'mon, Nono," Bebe said, tugging her sleeve."Break a leg!" Wulf shouted as the door closed behind them."Don't actually..." He said, chuckling nervously."Now then," he began, laying his head dow
Several weeks flew by since the incident; Caitlin had returned to work but had since steered clear of Wulf.Wulf played everything off with his students, trying to make everything seem like it was normal. However, it was obvious that there was tension."We need to do something..." Nono whispered to Kiara."What do you suggest we do...?" Kiara responded."We could tell them we're setting them up on a blind date then have them meet each other...!" Goo said, hopeful."Shhh!" Bebe scolded as Wulf turned around."Girls, is there a problem?" He asked."No, sir..." Nono mumbled."We have to do something, and fast, graduation is coming up soon and..." Goo paused."W-we won't be his students anymore; we can't possibly fail him...!" She cried."Guys, seriously?" Wulf frowned."What is so much more important than this lesson?" he narrowed his eyes."It can wait." He scolded."S-sorry Mr. Wulf..." Goo whi
As Wulf pulled up to the school, he let out a sigh."I really don't want to be here..." He grumbled."Mr. Wulf?" A voice called out.Wulf turned around, met by a stunning looking Rouge."R-Rouge...!" Wulf exclaimed."You look really nice..." He smiled.Rouge blushed."You think so...?" She chuckled."So, are you ready?" Rouge asked excitedly."I guess..." Wulf said, laughing nervously."Say, you have something on your face," Rouge frowned, leaning in close.Wulf blushed.Just then, a red car pulled up behind them."Wulf!" A voice cried out."Caitlin?" Wulf called out.Rouge narrowed her eyes."Turn around, silly!" She exclaimed.As he turned, Wulf was met by Caitlin, who for once had her hair down, sporting a red sleeveless dress."How do I look?" She giggled, doing a spin.Wulf's face turned bright red."G-great...!" He managed to squeak out.
The day before prom was a busy and eventful one. Girls talking about what dresses they're wearing, who they're bringing, and of course, who the prom queens will be.It was the same in Mr. Wulf's class; much to Wulf's annoyance, the girls were out of their chairs eagerly discussing the event."Say, Nono are you taking Bebe?" Goo asked excitedly."M-mm...!" Nono nodded her head."Speaking of Bebe, where is she?" Poppy asked."Yeah, she's usually not absent..." Madison whispered."Oh, no worries, she took an absence so she could go shopping for a nice dress!" Nono beamed."Maci," Kiara began as she turned to her."Have a date?" She asked."No..." Maci frowned."Then hang out with Goo and me!" Kiara beamed.Maci looked at her, then smiled."'Kay..." She nodded."Sunny, come here!" Olivia called out."What's up?" Sunny asked as she walked over."Come, look at my dress...!" Olivia beam
As class ended and all his students left, Wulf began stacking papers on his desk."Oh my," a voice called out from the doorway."Hm?" Wulf looked up, met face to face with Ms. Rouge."O-oh hey, Rouge...!" Wulf chuckled."Y-your face is awfully close to my face right now...!" He whispered, clearing his throat."It's just..." Rouge began, leaning on the desk."A little birdie told me you weren't going to prom." She narrowed her eyes."Is that true...?" She questioned."M-mm..." He nodded."Had a bad prom experience prior?" Rouge asked, lifting a brow."Date broke your heart into a million pieces?" She smirked."N-no, it's just...""Well, Wulfy," Rouge began, bopping his nose."Unfortunately, no matter your reasoning, I'm afraid all staff must be in attendance as prom supervisors..." She said, standing up."That means you, me, and the rest of us teachers, Wulf." She winked."Oh, but
As Wulf walked down the hallway, a flyer came slapping him in the face."What the..." Wulf began to grumble, uncrumpling the flyer.His eyes widened."Prom...?" He thought aloud."That's right!" A voice cried out from behind him."GAH?!" Wulf clenched his chest.As he whipped around, he was met by Sunny."Did I scare you...?" She asked with concern."Just a little..." Wulf chuckled nervously.*As the two entered the classroom, Wulf was amazed at how many of his students were already in the room."Man, you guys must be excited about something..." He mumbled in amusement."Mr. Wulf, I already told you," Sunny began with a frown."It's prom season, silly!" She giggled."Oh, right!" Wulf nodded."So..." Goo began."Who are you going to bring as your date, Mr. Wulf?" She asked."Eh, me?" Wulf pointed to himself."Nobody because I'm not going," he said, sipping a
As Wulf pulled up to the school, he couldn't help but smile."Right, today's the day..." He whispered.Danny, please watch over each of my kids and ensure that they all make it to graduation... He thought to himself.*As he entered the classroom, he noticed an envelope of exam results."Oh, boy..." He whispered."Seems somebody lacks some faith after all..."Wulf spun around, met by Rouge."Hey," she waved."Just wanted to congratulate you; seems you make a pretty great teacher after all," she smiled."A-ah, thanks..." Wulf chuckled nervously."Anyway, I'd better get going; congrats again," Rouge smiled, giving a wave as she left."A sincere smile...?" Wulf whispered to himself.*Reading through the results, Wulf's eyes widened."They did it..." he whispered in astonishment."They really did it...!" He cried."Did what?" A voice called out."Sunny!
After three more tests, the big exam week was finally over."Good morning, girls," Wulf greeted, walking to the front of the room."As you may be well aware, the grades have come in," he said."Now," I'm not allowed to give your grades, but," he paused."I have to say, I'm pretty impressed overall..." He grinned."Is that a hint...?" Nono whispered to Kiara."Beats me," Kiara replied."You'll just have to wait and see...!" Wulf smirked.*As Wulf's class arrived at the gymnasium, whispers were going around."Ignore them..." Wulf reassured."What are you staring at?!" Bebe snarled."Beebs, chill..." Nono warned, grabbing her arm."Girls, behave!" Wulf scolded.*As Wulf's class took their seats all the way in the back row, the principal walked up on stage."Ladies," she began."And Mr. Wulf..." She mumbled."Gee, thanks," Wulf grumbled."First of all, I
