Monster School Stories

The hopeless bet

(RLY SORRY, NO PIC, I'LL MAKE ONE SOON)

Zebulon's POV

IF YOU DON'T REMEMBER HIM, GO TO THE NAME LIST

I walked back into the academy, head low.

I hate my life...

I had just been rejected by his crush.

Well, why am I caring? My life will go on... and maybe I'm useful for something!

But for now, I just want to waste.

Waste...

YES!!! I'll challenge Aqua to a gaming match! She stays undefeated, and well... I'm just terrible. So if I waste my emeralds on this...

I rushed to Aqua's room door and knocked.

"Whoever it is, come in," said Aqua grumpily.

I entered.

Aqua's face lit up a bit.

"Oh, Zebulon, it's you!" she said. "How can I help you?"

"Well..." I said. "I CHALLENGE YOU TO A 100 EMERALD VIDEO GAME MATCH!!!"

Aqua shook her head.

"Idiot," she said. "Get ready to lose!"

We sat down in front of the TV and took the controllers...

(SORRY, I'M A LOT LIKE ZEBULON, I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT VIDEO GAMES)

And then we started.

-I dunno, two hours later, IG...?-

"Dammit, I lost!" I said.

"Told you!" said Aqua.

I looked into my inventory for 100 emeralds.

"Actually, don't give me emeralds..." said Aqua with a mischievous grin. "I have an idea."
