The Adventures of Team JATE Volume 1

The First Day

Amber awoke with a start, leaping out of her bed, she rushed to the washroom. 'I can't believe I slept in on my first day! How could I be so stupid!'

"Amber?"

She hastily and messily tied her hair into its signature ponytail before rushing out of the washroom, she glanced at the fridge, but decided against it, 'No time, I'm already late!'

"Amber."

Amber swung open the door to their dorm and prepared to rush out of it.

"AMBER!!!"

Amber finally registered whoever was calling her, "WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAT DO YOU WANT?!?!"

"What's the rush?! Calm down!" When Amber's panic died down long enough to realize that it was Emma speaking, she was about to give the Atlesian a piece of her mind.

"What do you mean 'What's the rush'?! We're gonna be late for-! ...school." Amber's sentence died when she actually looked at the clock, which read 7:47. Class started at 9:00.

She chuckled nervously as she slowly closed the door, "Why'd I hear my alarm then?"

Jake pointed at her scroll, which showed her mom's picture along with the answer or decline buttons. Chuckling nervously once more, she hastily picked up her scroll and answered it.

"Mom?"

"How's my little Bambi doing today?"  Amber heard her mom, Melody Palm, answer, using the pet name she's used ever since she was a kid, she was glad the others couldn't hear it.

"Mom, you nearly gave me a heart attack!"

"Why's that?"

"I thought I was gonna be late on my first day." Amber explained.

Melody was quick to fire back, "Well I told you that using the same song for  both your ringtone and alarm was a bad idea. Anyway, I just wanted to wish you good luck on your first day, sweetheart!"

"Thanks, Mom. But please, try to call a little later next time. You woke up literally everyone."

Jake chimed in, "Just for reference, I was already awake!"

Amber sighed, "Except Jake, but he wakes up ungodly early anyway."

"Wait, everyone?"

Amber paled slightly, 'Oh gods, please no...'

"Let me speak to them then! I wanna meet all of your little friends!"

"Um, uh, a-actually, Mom, they're actually all very tired, a-and they wanna get back to sleep and-"

Jake cut in again, making the situation 10x worse, "You have a very attractive daughter, Mrs. Palm!"

Amber heard her mom begin to thank Jake before hanging up and pinching the bridge of her nose, a blush forming on her face, "Why did you feel the need to do that?"

Jake had a teasing smile on his face as he looked at her, "Oh, I wasn't trying to be embarrassing, I meant it, amiga."

"I ship it~!" She heard Emma whisper, and in response, Amber threw her pillow at her, prompting the Atleasian to burst into a fit of cackling laughter.

2 hours later

"Good morning students!" A black haired woman with a pink streak in her hair and silver eyes (well, at least one of her eyes was silver, the other one was hidden under her hair) chirped happily to the class, "My name is Violet Rose, and I will be your teacher while you're here!"
