Fanon:If Astrid Met Leona

If Astrid Met Leona

Chapter 1: New student
A few hours before the epilogue of A Sim's Tale: Book 2...

Astrid Priscilla Toadstool was beginning her first day of eleventh grade. She was kind nervous to begin school, because she just moved to Sunset Valley yesterday. She was worried that her classmates wouldn't be as good as they were in her last town, Riverview. She was also worried because she heard three months ago, there was a fire in this school

Especially after she left behind her best friend, and boyfriend Elliot Briody. They had been friends for six years and afterwards, they had fallen in love. But her dad announced that they would be moving to Sunset Valley because he got a job offer there. Of course he took it.

Astrid stepped foot on the bus. She shifted into a seat in the middle. She got some weird looks for being a newcomer to the school. No one knew who she was.

She put her headphones in, listening to her favorite tune. Minutes later, the bus stopped, and she noticed two twin girls, and a young boy enter the bus. The twins sat across from her, and since there was only one seat left (Astrid's seat) the young boy sat next to her. Astrid rolled her eyes. She wanted to be alone right now.

When they arrived at Sunset Valley Community School, Astrid was surprised that everyone had different ages here. She saw kindergarteners, elementary school children, middle school kids, teens, and some who haven't had enough credits to graduate yet.

"What diversity..." Astrid said. "I hope they have a basketball team."

Astrid's first class was P.E., her favorite. "Ah, yeah! I love P.E. so much. Hopefully there will be less lazy girls here."

She went to the locker room, dressed into her athletic wear, then asked the teacher a question.

"Ms, will there be any room on the basketball team for me to join?" She asked the teacher.

"Of course, if you have the skill. I'll set up a tryout for you during lunch, be here."

"Okay, thank you."

Astrid's second class was Simlish, which she found kind of boring. They read a boring story. Her third class was Science, and her fourth class was World History.

After world history, lunch finally came. Astrid quickly ate her sandwich as she walked to the gymnasium.

When she went there for tryouts, she sat on the bleachers for a moment. Suddenly, a prankster pulled her shoelaces from underneath.

"You've been pranked!" The blonde haired prankster yelled, then went to sit with her friends in the tribune.

"Aw, come on!" Astrid yelled, then proceeded to tie her shoes.

"Hey, you newcomer, come here!" A voice was heard, from a blonde haired, tan skinned basketball player.

"Y-yes, what's wrong?" Astrid asked.

"Well, our captain of the women's basketball team here wants to see your athletic prowess," the girl said.

"Err, I don't know..." the girl.

"Come on, don't be nervous Toads... err..." The blonde girl wracked her brain to remember the girl's name.

"The name's Astrid Toadstool" she reminded.

"Okay, thanks," the captain said, "So Astrid, if you don't mind, I really wanna see your ability".

"Well, if that's so... Okay" Astrid said, a little nervous. She didn't know these girls very well, so she hoped they wouldn't laugh at her.

Astrid later showed off her magnificent skill, everyone saw it in awe.

"Impressive, Astrid" the captain said, clapping her hands.

"Y-yeah, thanks captain!" Astrid said, relieved that they were impressed.

"Well Astrid, what about a one-on-one?" The captain said, challenging Astrid.

"Wait a minute? Are you sure?" Astrid surprised.

"Pretty sure"

"Well, okay" Astrid answered.

Everyone became silent, both the caption and Astrid were ready in their position. At the tribune, four teenaged girl watched. The referee tossed the ball on the air, both the captain and Astrid jumped to get it.

"Aha! Got it!" Astrid thought. As she dribbled the basketball down the court. The captain was quick on her feet, and then she stole the ball.

The captain dribbled the basketball down to her basket, she shot a basket but suddenly...

"Hiya!" Astrid blocked the ball before it could land. She had ahold of it now. She dribbled back to her side, then made a basket!

"We have a winner!" The referee said. "Astrid... Er... What's your middle name?"

"I will never say my middle name..."

"Whatever... Astrid Toadstool!" The other teammates clapped for their new teammate.

"You, um... You play well." The captain said, panting.

"I know," Astrid said proudly.

"How about we have some lunch together then?"

"Sure! Let's go now."

"By the way, the name's Leona Redfield."

"Nice to meet you. Your last name... Redfield... It sounds familiar," Astrid thought.

"Okay, well let's go to the cafeteria before Darlene eats all the pizza!"

Chapter 2: More friends
In the cafeteria, Leona led Astrid to her lunch table, full of her friends.

"Hey guys, meet my new friend, Astrid Toadstool. Astrid, this is Jean, my twin sister, and my friends Bella Bachelor, Mortimer Goth, Kaylynn Langerak, Darlene Bunch, Dina Caliente, and Ale- well actually... Nevermind"

"Nice to meet you," Astrid said to everyone.

"Please, sit down Astrid!" Bella invited. Astrid took a seat next to Jean and Mortimer.

"So Astrid, what's your story? We wanna get to know you." Kaylynn said.

"Yeah, what was it like in your old town?" Darlene asked, eating a pizza slice.

"I used to live in Riverview. But I didn't like it all that much."

"Why not?" Bella asked.

"Well as you know Riverview is a very old fashioned town. So many girls who lived there in my childhood were the really girly. They played with dolls, wore pink, and I stuck out like a sore thumb at school. I always liked to play in the mud with dump truck toys. The neighborhood girls, Tatiana Ivanov, Carlotta Lobos, Anita Lobos Kirsten Remington and Susie Broke always never let me play with them. And I was always sad..."

"Aw, that's too bad." Leona said.

"But I always had my father, uncle, my cousin Nia, and my boyfriend as my friends..." Astrid told them. "And I managed..."

"Well Astrid, we accept you." Leona replied. "We aren't mean like them."

"Yeah!" Kaylynn said. "Since one of our friends moved, we always felt a little empty at our table."

"Thank you guys," Astrid smiled. She now had more friends than she ever imagined. "So Leona, Jean, tell me about your family."

Leona told Astrid about the Redfield family. She told her about her politician father, her cook mother, her younger brother Chris, and her adopted brother Charlie.

"Nice family. So, Leona do you want to come to my home after school? I have a soccer net it my yard and we can play some."

"Okay, cool, sure."

"Hey which class do you have after lunch?" Astrid asked.

"I have Simology, with Mr. Wolff." Leona answered.

"Me too, let's go put our backpacks in there."

They went into the Simology class and set their backpacks down. Astrid sat at a three person table, next to Leona and a blonde haired boy with a hat. Astrid chatted with Leona but noticed he stared at her too much, making her uncomfortable...

"Is something wrong?" Astrid asked.

"Huh? Oh n-nothing..." He said. Then he looked away.

"Oh, that's Darlene's brother, Arlo. I sit next to him in here."

"He seems kind of... annoying," Astrid said.

Then, the bell rang and every pupil was in their seat. The teacher walked in.

"Okay class... I have an announcement, we have a new student here." Mr. Wolff said. "Her name's Astrid, she is sitting next to Ms, Redfield and Mr. Bunch,"

Then everyone looked at Astrid.

"..." Astrid felt awkward.

"Say something!" Mr. Wolff yelled.

"Uh, hi. Let's learn about Simology now..." Astrid said.

To be continued.
