Baby Bat Goes To School Part 8

From there Bee made her way to the cafeteria. Once there she saw that Mary was already sitting down eating her lunch. As Bee made her way over to her she saw that she was also sitting next to Milagro.

“Bee over here!” Mary yelled as she saw Bee heading towards her. Seconds later Bee sat down next to her. “Where’s your lunch?” Mary asked as she noticed that Bee neither brought a lunch nor bought one.

“Hcnul reappa!” said Bee and seconds later a small brown bag appeared in front of her. “My mother taught me that one,” she said with a smirk.

“OMG! That was amazing! I’ve always dreamed of seeing magic up close and it’s even cooler than I imagined!”

“It’s nothing that big,” Bee said as she began to blush. “It’s just a simple cloaking charm. I had the bag on me when I walked in. I just wanted it to seem like it came out of thin air.”

“That’s still amazing! I can’t wait to have a class with Miss Raven! I can’t wait to be doing spells just like that!”

“Was Cyborg’s class that uneventful for you?” Bee asked.

“Of course not! Cyborg may not be as intelligent as my father, but he’s far more fun; right Milagro.”

“Um, yeah. Mr. Cyborg let us showcase our powers. It was fun,” Milagro said back to them quietly. She kept her head down, but Bee could see that she was smiling.

“Bee you should have seen her. Her scarab is adorable! When she’s armored up she looks just like a little pink fairy!”

“Please stop, the scarab is embarrassed,” she said back.

“Wait, the scarab is alive?” Mary looked a bit shocked to learn that, but Bee knew that all along. Every scarab produced by the Reach had an AI embedded inside of them so that they could learn and grow with their user. Since Milagro was just a child that’s exactly what the scarab was, a child.

Milagro nodded her head, and Mary smiled. “That means that I now have three new friends instead of two.”

“Three?” “Of course,” said Mary. “First there’s Bee, then there’s you, and finally there’s your scarab.” “I’m your friend?” Milagro looked a bit nervous, but Bee knew that what Mary said was true.

“Of course you’re our friend,” said Bee, as she and Mary grabbed her hands. “The four of us are friends from now on.”

Bee knew that befriending two, no three girls on her first day of school was a bit rash, but it didn’t feel awkward for her. In fact, it felt natural. Just wait until her mother hears about this. She’s sure to give Bee such praise for doing her best.

“Oh by the way, what is your scarabs name?” Mary asked as they all sat down. “She says her name is Pino.” “Well, Pino thank you for being our friend.”
