Chapter 37: School life for Anna

In the Morning..

Arthur was waking up Anna saying "Come on, rise and shine Anna its your first day of school." as she then cries Dorothy enters the room and says "If you go to school today, later me and Papa will buy you ice cream." Anna then stopped crying but was still sleepy a few moments later Saya was already done making breakfast and was simply waiting for the rest of them to go outside the room.

They were all at the table and eating their breakfast, Arthur then says "You be a good girl at school alright." he gave her a smile as she said "but I don't want to go, it's scary." Dorothy then chuckles and says to herself "I know that feeling." Arthur then says "It's gonna alright, you're gonna meet a lot of nice people there, learn new things and many more, I even heard you guys had a nap time I'm pretty jealous of that to be honest." as Anna then giggles and asks "Really Papa?." Arthur replies "Yep, I'm very jealous and besides I know you're going to do great today."

Anna then brings up what Dorothy told her earlier saying "When school is done, Mama said ice cream." she smiles and gets even more excited Arthur then says "Yes, all three of us will go and buy ice cream later." as he looks upon Dorothy looking the other way trying to whistle.

"Will Mama and Papa be happy? if Anna goes to school?." the two were silent and Arthur said "Yep, very happy." she then says "Okay I'll go to school." and gave them a smile.

Minutes later they were all ready, and were standing outside of Anna's room.

Arthur says "Anna we talked about this, I'm sure you're gonna do great today." He gave her a smile and wore her bag for her, Dorothy then says "Let's go." as the three of them enter the room.

Arthur opened the door, and what Anna saw were other children of her age running around the room, some were playing with the toys and some we're talking to the teacher.

Dorothy asks "Is that her?." as the Teacher stood up from her chair and went towards them Arthur then replies "Yep." while Anna was clinging behind him the teacher asks "Hi my name's Mickey, you two must the be the ones enrolling a little one here today." she lends out her hand for a handshake, Dorothy then thoughts to herself saying "Why is she lending out her hand?." Arthur shook Mickey's hand.

Arthur then said "I'm Arthur, this is Dorothy and Anna here will be the one joining your class today." She replies "The pleasure's all mine." she lets go and takes a look at Anna and says "Hey there Anna, why not you come over here and let's enjoy the day together." she gave her a smile meanwhile Anna was still hesitant to go.

Dorothy was still embarrassed to ask herself why Mickey lend out her hand earlier Arthur then kneels in front of Anna and says "Hey, don't be scared Ms. Mickey will take care of you for the whole day and we'll pick you up later remember?." He gave her a comforting smile, her heart was still beating heavily as she was still afraid go.

She asks timidly "I-Ice cream?." Arthur smiled at her and said "Of course, we'll buy you any ice cream you want." he ruffles her hair she then says "Okay, I'm ready now." she took a deep breath and walked towards her teacher and said timidly "H-H-Hi."

A few moments later Anna went with her teacher as they went towards the other kids, meanwhile Dorothy said "I feel so proud." Arthur replied with a smile on his face "I know what you mean." as they both leave the room Dorothy squints her eyes from the distance and asks "Is that ?." as she noticed Arthur and Dorothy she waved and went to them, Arthur then says "That's Patrisha." Dorothy then said "Good Morning Patrisha." She replied "Good Morning Dorothy, Arthur." Arthur nodded his head as Patrisha was panting from the running and asked "Who? Who was that girl right now?." the two froze and Arthur said "S-S-She's my niecee." Dorothy replies nervously "Y-Yeah Arthur's family wants him to take care of her for the meanwhile and I'm helping him too since he's my boyfriend and all."

Patrisha then says "Kinda looks like you guys are a family." Arthur became flustered and looked the other way Dorothy then says "D-D-Do we? hehehhee ... Anyways let's go to class together." She gives her a warm smile as Patrisha then says "Alright."

Arthur notices someone watching them from a far so he decides to gaze upon the rooftop of the near by building, he stared upon it for a few minutes Dorothy then asks "Hey Arthur! you coming or what." He then replies "I'm coming." as he then goes to Dorothy and Patrisha.

Elizabeth's clone said "Well well looks like Arthur's really cautious now huh hehehe." she licks her lips and says "Well looks like nothing's going to happen today might as well report to my other self." She then proceeds to head to Elizabeth's whereabouts.

Meanwhile Anna was still bashful around the other kids and was basically playing with a doll all by herself she made the doll walked into the toy house when a girl walked towards her saying "Can I play with you?." the girl asks as Anna was silent and she simply nods her head the girl introduces herself "I'm Joy, I hope we become good friends." she gives Anna a smile as she replies in a silent tone "Anna, same here." Joy then proceeds to get the toy car and park it outside the toy house,

She said "Beep Beep! your talking car is here to pick you up." Anna had never interacted with another kid before, therefore she has no clues on what to react or do upon encountering one but by playing with Joy, she was calm and enjoying herself play with her.

Anna makes the doll go outside the toy house and enter the talking car Joy said impersonating as the talking car "Where do you wanna go ms?." Anna laughed and replied "I wanna go to the mall." Joy replied "Okayy vroomm! vrooom!!! beep !!." Joy drove the car towards a pile of bricks that they imagined to be the mall, Joy says "We're here." Anna gets the doll out of the car and says "T-Thank you." She then looks at Joy and the two were laughing as they enjoyed playing together.

Elizabeth's clone arrived and knelt, Elizabeth then asked "What is there to report my other self?." The clone replied "They enrolled the little girl in a nursery room in WordBagon, at this rate she'll be protected by the heroes there." Elizabeth smiled as she then says "Very good, you can come back now other me, Thank you for your hard work." as her clone disperses and goes into Elizabeth's shadow she watches the piece of paper she is currently holding and says "Looks like we found the culprit girls." as she lets out a maniacal laugh at the rooftop.

the guard enters the rooftop yelling "Who's there!?." and sees the falling piece of paper getting blown by the wind stating where the user of the droids is hiding.

At Anna's classroom, they were just finished learning the Alphabet and their teacher says "Alright class, it's time for our naps I want all of you to be fast asleep alright." She turns off the lights as everyone gets ready to go to sleep Joy head towards Anna and asks "Can I sleep next to you?." She replies "Sure."

An hour has passed and everyone was fast asleep, meanwhile Anna was having a dream...

*After she ran away from the heroes that night.*

*Pants

*Pants

Flowers were blooming as they made a pathway, Young Anna was curious and followed the trail as it led her to a lighthouse tower.

"I've been expecting you." a white hooded person said when she entered the lighthouse..

Anna then wakes up from her dream as their teacher turns on the lights as the rest tried to wake up, while some were still fast asleep.

Joy asks while rubbing her eyes "*Yawns are you okay Anna?." She replies "Yup." And for the rest of the day Anna was having fun in their room as they played and learned many new things and when it was time for them to go home.

Her teacher said "Anna may you come here for a second." Anna waved goodbye to Joy as she heads towards her teacher, she asks "How was your first day so far?." Anna then replies "It was fun." she gives a smile and proceeds to head out the room.

Arthur then says "There she is." as Dorothy yells out "Anna! we're over here." Anna then sees them from a far and proceeds to head towards them with joy, she jumps between the two of them and as they caught her and fell on the ground laughing Arthur asked "And? how was today?." Dorothy asks "Were you a good girl like Papa told you?." She replies "Yes Mama, Papa I enjoyed my day." Arthur then says "Well the day's not over yet since we're gonna go buy ice cream!!." as he carried Anna through his shoulders and the two ran towards the near convenience store while Dorothy thought to herself "I can't believe those two." Dorothy then follows them.
