The ride to school wasn't all that long seeing as how they were only a few blocks away, which was a good thing since Barbie figured she could mix it up and walk to school on nice days.

As soon as they pulled in Tyler would begin to give her the run down and she'd giggle slightly when he mentioned he wouldn't be able to stay with her for the rest of the day.
"Of course you can't stay with me all day, that would be unreasonable and actually really odd, I'd start to think you were a stalker!" she joked, before stepping out of the car and brushing her dress off.

She'd half pay attention to Tylers friends as she applied her lip gloss in the vehicles side-view mirror, and then after she reread her schedule she'd wave goodbye to her new housemate and take off towards the front door.




Like most students the homeroom teacher was going to be her first stop, however when she walked by a group of guys playing Mortal Kombat 9 on a limited edition Xbox 360 she instantly back-tracked.
"Oh my God I totally love this game!!" she piped up, as soon as the match ended and the players returned to the character menu.
The two guys playing looked over their shoulders for only a second before turning back to the 39" flat-screen in front of them. However they'd quickly do a double take and stare at Barbie - confused.
"U-um, can we help you?"
She would put on a friendly smile, grab an empty chair nearby, and slide it in-between the two guys playing before taking a seat.
"Well I was trying to find the guy that's suppose to be my teacher, or one of those FPS kids Tyler told me to stay away from, but that can wait! Are you guys part of the Fighters crew!?"
The group of five guys just stared at her in silence for a moment, completely befuddled, before one of the two playing spoke up.
"Uh Fighters Crew? No. We are the Varsity AVG team, sub genre Fighting. Are you a, um, lost?"
"AH! Fighting Games, this detour of mine is perfect then! I'm Barbie, I'll be trying out for your team later today! I hear you're looking for a captain too, who knows, I might wanna do that as well!!"
The bubbly blonde earned a bunch of shocked expressions as she talked, however when she mentioned becoming Captain the looks on the faces of the guys around her morphed from complete confusion to a kind of confused humor as soft laughs escaped some of their lips.
Barbie just continued to smile as she crossed her legs and began to dig through her purse.
"I'm sorry, but that's just not possible miss-" the guy holding the Second Player remote would stop talking when he noticed her pulling out a custom pink cheetah print 360 controller
"Barbie, no miss, just Barbie. And what would you say if I told you I could crush your Liu Kang after three rounds with less than 10 moves?"
"That's-"
"-Impossible? Totally. Indulge my silliness though hmm??"

It took the short chubby red-headed boy a moment to answer. He wasn't sure what to make of her and her challenge, but after several seconds he decided to call her bluff.
"Yeah okay then, fine. Instead of 10 though, I'll be nice and allow you 15."
"Aww, you're too kind!"


The slender guy hiding within an over-sized hoodie to her left quickly signed off his controller so that she could log hers on, an after the guy to her right chose Liu Kang she'd chose her all time favorite - Kitana - and the game would begin.


She could hear snickers over her choice of character but they'd instantly stopped when her perfectly French-manicured fingers began to move.
Dodging an attempted three-fist combo, likely thrown out to test her, Barbie wasted no time in a combo of her own.
With complete ease she pulled off a thirteen hit original with 35% damage, and then as she evaded another attack from her taken aback challenger she randomly began singing "Dancing Queen" under her breath.
Next she mashed out a slightly more simple six hit maneuver with a punch of 28% damage, an after suffering a 18% health loss herself she'd finish the round with an eleven hit Xray combo that normally packed 46% damage, but in this case ended the match slightly short of that margin.

The next two rounds were much of the same until the very end of the third, where Barbie added insult to injury by finishing with babality.

"Aww, so cute when he falls! So what was that, 9 moves an a Fatality?" she'd say rather casually, as if she didn't just wipe the floor with the guy.
"How did you-"
"What? That? Oh that was totally nothing! Wait until tryouts, should be super fun!!"
Before another word could be spoken the warning bell for home period rang, which gave them five minutes to make it to class before the finale bell for the period went off.


"Ah gotta go! I need to find this room like now!!"
Barbie jolted up from her chair, shoved the controller back in her purse, and then after a quick wave took off down the hallway.
"W-what just happened there?" one of the guys would ask as they watched her run off.
"Kyle just got creamed by a Barbie named.....Barbie, that's what happened!" the guy in the hoodie chimed in with, before laughing.





After a few minutes of searching it hit Barbie that she had passed her room and needed to back track. "Gosh I really am a blonde!"
She'd begin to chastise herself aloud as she realized in her frenzy to be on time she didn't bother to ask the group of guys she had just left for directions. "I bet all the best seats will be taken by the time I get there!!"

Luckily within another minute she finally rounded the right corner and stepped inside her classroom's door frame just as the final bell rang.

"Woo! Talk about cutting it close!" she let out with a sigh, before scooting over to the last available window seat - in the very front.
