Own Up
[In Mrs. Weighs' class....]
"Students, I want to commend most of you for your hard work at the competition last week. I know it was your first time competing, but you really made it look like you'd done it for years. However, one of you failed to live up to that effort when we needed it most. Rainbow, care to explain yourself?" began Mrs. Weighs.
"I got bored of the competition, okay? You act like it was a crime to relax a little, " muttered Rainbow.
"That was more than a little relaxation. Besides, you'd had plenty of rest up until you decided to compete, and let the opponent win practically by default," protested Mrs. Weighs.
"So what? It's not like it was important or anything," snapped Rainbow.
"It was our first time out and I wanted to make a good impression for the audience watching," explained Mrs. Weighs.
"Were they really watching or dozing off from the dull events?" questioned Rainbow.
"Our opponent scoffed at us right from the start and you had to go and give them extra fuel for their insults," added Marcus.
"As they should given the choice of clothing was barbaric," noted Rainbow.
"Rainbow, please. You didn't even try. How could you not feel any guilt over letting the entire team down?" agreed Persephone.
"Easy, the competition was a joke and winning wouldn't have felt like an accomplishment. Besides, what was a security officer like Courtney doing on the sidelines and as our coach? Couldn't we have gotten someone at least halfway decent to teach us the ropes?" replied Rainbow.
"I'll have you know Courtney's been in the competition in the past and knew all of the rules. That makes her 100% qualified to be a coach," remarked Mrs. Weighs.
"Just like she's 'qualified' to sit on her big butt to watch us all day?" scoffed Rainbow.
"Young lady, that's no way to talk to anyone! I'm appalled at your behavior today and at the event. Thus, I'm giving you a month's detention and you are to report to the Detention Hall every day for 3 hours!" yelled Mrs. Weighs.
"Good luck making me," smirked Rainbow.
"She is so going to get it," whispered Kyle.
"I wouldn't want to be her," nodded Samantha quietly.
"For the rest of you, I'll be rewarding each of you with no homework the next week so take full advantage of it. Courtney had good remarks on of you and wished she had been competing herself," continued Mrs. Weighs.
"It's too bad Rainbow cost us the title, but we had a pretty good time for our first time being there," thought Persephone.
