[Author's note: Timmy is my favourite among the specialists, and this story is to pay tribute to him. I'd suggest you to go through my other story "Midnight Heroes" first, so that you can understand what happened previously in their life.]
First Day at Redfountain
As I've told you, my new school is named 'Red fountain school for heroics and bravery'. There were excessive numbers of squads present at the dining hall. I didn't like to eat, which however was a cause of me being lanky. I knew none would take me as one of their squad members, but they would actually need some tactics, strategy and brain work. I'm proud to say that I come in a full package of those 3. Plus I could do some navigation too, provided they appoint me.
I don't know how cereal is good for your health, but I definitely won't refuse to devour it. When I scooped in a spoonful of cereal into my mouth, I saw a group of strong and heavy built boys coming towards me. Think, Timmy! What possibly have you done to them?
"Hey! Timmy, is it?" The blonde boy of the group spoke.
"Yes, but believe me I didn't do it."
"What are you talking about? We just wanted to sit with you!" The fringed brunette boy of the trio said.
"Just tell him already!" The burgundy haired boy burst in.
"Riven, you're not supposed to speak to Prince Sky like that." The blonde answered.
"Let him go, squire Brandon." Prince Sky, the brunette said.
"Oh, phew." Riven said.
"Tell me what?" I asked.
"Well you see," Brandon tried to say but Riven broke in, "We need dweebs like you in our squad."
"What he meant was that we need a consulting tactician for today. And Headmaster said that you could be the best. So, care to join the squad temporarily?" Prince Sky asked.
"Okay. When do I have to report?" I said.
"Now. You do have your sword, right?" Brandon said.
"Actually I prefer non violence,"
Riven burst in again, "Just say that you still wear a diaper."
"But I have a plasma gun as my weapon of choice. Pretty good thing, can stun targets."
"Sounds good to me. Lets go." Prince Sky said.
WOW! I never saw a ship this tiny! In Zenith, the local buses are bigger than these Red Fountain airships.
"I'll call dibs this time." Prince Sky said while fastening his seatbelt.
"You did it before, no fair! This time I call dibs." Riven said.
"Riven!" Brandon yelled. "I think, in honor of Timmy helping us for today, we let him call dibs."
"I'd love to, but I'd rather not." I smiled.
"Ooh! Has our brother a girlfriend?" Prince Sky remarked.
Girlfriend? That too mine? That thought always made me sneeze.
"Absolutely not." I grinned, though actually I blushed.
"Well, the call is from Princess Stella. So sorry Timmy, that's my previous dibs." Prince Sky laughed.
The ship landed on Earth. I had always heard or seen about Earth in PDAs. Now I'm seeing it practically. I fished out my plasma gun because the others readied their swords. I saw a pretty distressed looking Ginger headed girl, trying to fight some trolls.
"Dibs." Brandon grinned, "Sorry guys, but that's now mine."
"Aww, jeez." Riven smirked, "We're only sixteen. We'll get tons to call dibs."
"Timmy, tell us your stats." Prince Sky yelled while raising his sword, "The trolls are numerous and I don't think we can beat them."
"Unless you target the main power source. From my opinion I'd say we target that yellow one. Riven and Brandon, please engage yourselves. Sire, you target the blue ones while I'll distract them all."
"We trust you, Timmy."
"I know. I trusted someone and she kept her promise."
Later when we won we were introduced to Bloom, a strange and mysterious Earth fairy. I also met Prince Sky's 'dibs' Princess Stella, the princess of Solaria and fairy of the sun and the moon. They'd join Alfea, the fairy school next to ours the next day.
I was promoted from the consulting tactician to the permanent tactician of Prince Sky's squad. Now I belong to a heroic squad. I do hope our days get better.
Ciao.
Timothy.
