3 Getting A Friend

[Inside Mark's home]

Mark was telling his parents about the battle he had with Jack.

Mark: "Then I said 'Boooom one shot'!"

Mark's Family was enjoying themselves talking about how their day went. The table was filled with laughter and smiles.

Mark's Mom: "Like father like son."

Mark's Dad: "Hey, Clare, whats that supposed to mean?!"

Mark and his mom continued to laugh.

(Mark's Mom)Clare: "Now now Tom settle down, how about you tell us about your day at work?"

(Mark's Dad)Tom: "Well basically, the city council got together and we decided that we will have a tournament in 6 more months. So Mark, would you like to enter it?"

Mark: "Really I can enter a tournament!?"

(Mark's Dad)Tom: "Of course son."

(Mark's Mom)Clare: "Only if you do good in school."

Clare didn't wan't her son to do bad in school and not care about his grades. She also knew that allowing him to enter the tournament would give him more motivation to do well in school.

(Mark's Dad)Tom: "Your mother is right. Also you should get ready for bed your going to start going to school next week after all and don't want to have a messed up sleep schedule."

As the family all said goodnight to each other Mark was happy and could be seen with a huge grin if you looked under his covers as if he had a brilliant idea. Thinking back to his battle outside of that beyblade utility shop he resolved himself to train hard durring the week he has instead of just waiting for the time to go by.

-One week later-

Mark: "Bye mom i'm heading to school."

(Mark's Mom)Clare: "Do you know how to get there?"

Mark: "Yup, it won't be a problem!"

(Mark's Mom)Clare: "Bye honey make sure to have fun and make friends!"

Mark: "I know mom, cya later!"

Mark said while leaving on his way to school.

-15 minutes of walking later-

Mark: "I could have sworn that this was the right way, ugh this sucks."

In front of mark stood a 12 year old girl who was about 5'1(154 cm) tall, had long blond hair, orange eyes, wore a red shirt she had on along with her yellow long skirt that stopped at her knees.

???: "Are you ok? You look depressed."

Mark: "No, I thought I could find my way to school on my own but apparently I was wrong..."

???: "Well I could help you, after all there is only one school in this entire city."

Mark: "Really! Thank yo- WAIT A MINUTE WHO ARE YOU!"

Mark was startled and surprised, had he seriously just had a small conversation with someone who he didn't even notice was right in front of him?

Emily: "Oh, pardon my manners, my name is Emily. Also the chances are we go to the same school."

Thus the two ended up walking to school together.

-10 minutes later-

The two children finally made it to school and much to Mark's surprise the school's distance is actually a 7 minute run starting from his house. Mark was glad this was the case because It could save him more time to stay at home before going to school.

Emily: "This is the school, you go here too right?"

Mark: "Yeah this is the place."

Emily: "That's good cause I wouldn't know what to do if it wasn't."

*Marks stomach growls*

Emily: "Oh right! They serve breakfast here lets go!"

Now that Emily had shown him the way to school they rushed to find the cafeteria in hopes that they haven't missed breakfast yet.
