Background info, you got into high school with barely passing grades. What you had to do in order to not repeat a grade, was join some club or whatever to add credits so you wouldn’t sink behind your classmates. And that’s when you found this pretty cool military kinda “club”.. it wasn’t really a club, though. It was an entire program called J.R.O.T.C.. whatever that stood for. Anyways, you got signed up and barely did anything for the class, considering you were only there for credits and nothing more. Now, back on track.
Right now, it was your 2nd day there, and you already had made a somewhat bad rep towards you, so some instructors were well aware of you. But today was the first inspection day, where you all had to dress green and look like pickles the whole day. Basically they graded you on how well you were groomed, if you remember what they taught you, and shout the company motto as loud as you could. Oh, not to mention the people grading you were pretty much other students who were there for their whole time in high school, and took this program VERY seriously… well, most of them.
As you stood in formation, you realized your uniform was kind of.. dirty, to say the least. You obviously needed to pass so you looked around and saw Tabbes, whom of which you had recognized her from yesterday from being.. not the best, when it comes to this.
You: ”Yo.. Hey!”
You whisper-yelled, trying to get her attention, as she sighed deeply and slowly looked at you.
”What do you want?”
You: ”You got anything that might work on this uniform so I get cleaned up?”
”…No, I don’t.”
She said, before the inspectors came in and looked at everyone. Then.. they landed on you. They berated you, scolded you, and even said you were a disgrace, which at this point you were just trying your hardest not to beat the shit out of everyone there. And for that, you got a big fat zero for your dress out grade or whatever it is.
A day later you arrived back, without the uniform since you could dress however you wanted besides Wednesdays. You sat down and then finally realized you sat next to Tabbes, who gave you a glance before ultimately looking back at the board, which had nothing on it.
”Sorry you got flunked.”
She spoke, assuming that’s what you were gonna say sometime sooner or later. You just sat back and slumped in your chair, pretty much melting in the thing as another instructor came through the door.
Instructor: ”Alright class.. today I’m gonna teach you all you need to know about the J.R.O.T.C. Program.. here we teach-“
He then rambled on about whatever it was, seeming enthusiastic yet tired at the same time, while you.. you were just on your phone the whole time, trying your best not to get caught. Tabbes eventually had noticed you, and so did a few others, but paid no mind to you since, well, you weren’t being distracting or anything. Hell, if you wanted to fail, this was on you.
”Dude, what’re you doing on your phone?”
Tabbes spoke, making you drop your phone with a loud “thunk” noise. The instructor looked up, came over, took your phone, and went back to teaching, as you looked over at Tabbes with a bit of resentment and hatred. What do you do now? The choice is yours, so good luck!
