I am a Glass Shoyru, or at least, I used to be. One day, I had a silky, smooth
see-through turquoise, shiny skin. I had rushed off to school, not wanting to
be late on a field trip for The Haunted Woods. I had all ready started growing
fur, and mum thought it best for me to stay home, but I had forced her to make
me go anyway. When I got there, I was almost entirely covered in fur, and my
glassy coat was fading fast. Horn-like things started coming from my feet and
wings.
I felt slightly sick. There was one more pet I saw at the school who was Glass--a
Flotsam, who like me, seemed slightly sick. I went to the school nurse, and
she told me it was just part off the makeover.
"Makeover?!" I had shouted. "Makeover for WHAT?!" The kind Elephante smiled
and the answer had astounded me.
"The people have spoken, little one," she said. "Now the NeoPets Staff are
changing the Glass pets. Stay here a half an hour more." She took out a bucket.
"Just in case. It will take a while more for you to change, and sometimes you
might feel a little sick, and this is a major change."
I saw the Flotsam in another bed.

After school, mum put down The Neopian Times she was holding.
"Well, you look... rare! And kind of cute!" she said as she hugged me. My Bearog
Nica looked at me in disgust, then said, "Wa hapnt?"
I pet her a long while and she seemed back to normal again. My sisters all
talked how rare the Tyrannian Paint Brush is, and Ritter__John talked about
even SELLING me, and yes, I would be VERY rare. My friends were all complimenting
me, and others just ignored me--the were jealous. Some girl Flotsams were crying
in jealousy of their friend, the Flotsam I had seen yesterday. My friends told
me that most everyone just likes it because it's rare, others because it's cool.
The next day, I had gotten to my locker when my friend timber_346 had been
there waiting for me. She was a red Kougra, but was now in a terrific Christmas
colour.
"Wow! You look so great!" I said.
"Yeah, it's neat, but your look is much cooler," she replied, with a sigh of
happiness.
We walked to our first class, Tusk (the language of the Tuskaninny). We pulled
our books out and today we were learning the words of the colours.
After, my sister from another account, Belle7_18_2001_12yr, ran into me by
accident, making us both drop our books.
"Blue_Buffiee?" she said and stood up, dropping her books she had just picked
up.
"That's the name. Why?" I asked, in deep surprise.
"I haven't seen you around, I've only seen mum. You look great!" she said,
and scurried away. I told my friends about it, and they just but they weren't
sure what happened.
"What is going on??" I demanded.
"Well, those gossip-girls over there are telling everyone that the Tyrannian
change has made those NeoPets have a desire to fight," AquaAngel24, my friend,
answered.
I looked toward were she was pointing. Insensitive pets.
When I saw them alone at lunch, I went over and gave them a piece of my mind.
"Get away, beast," one said. I saw behind them another table were their use-to-be
friend sat alone.
"Close your big ugly mouths, you jealous creeps," I said.
One girl stood up and said, "Jealous! Of YOU and HER, NO WAY!"
"Oh yeah, then I guess this morning you were just crying because your have
to much pity for yourself!" I screeched.
A couple people looked, I didn't care. I couldn't stand people starting rumours
and such, and telling people I was a maniac.
"I-I-I..." she started off, and a big grin was forming on my face. "Oh fine
then! But at least I do not have horns for feet."
"It was rude to start that rumour!" I boomed.
"Rude?" she said with a laugh. "I don't think so."
I was so angered at this, I was raising my fist, but just than, Aqua came over
and grabbed me.
"Well, fine, we'll leave you in peace," she said and dragged me back to the
table.
"Why did you do that?!" I asked.
"You to were about to make a fool of yourselves, especially you! But... watch
this," she said and turned around and whispered something to the Mynci behind
her.
Then she whispered to me, "See those two girls over there, they both cry if
they don't have their baby blankly."
I had just realised what she had done--given them a dose of their own medicine!
Sure enough, by the end of school, everyone but a couple Neopians and the
two Flotsams have heard the rumour. But by the next day, they had heard.
"Omigosh!" They had told me. "That was so rude! How could you do such a thing
to someone so innocent?"
I laughed so hard and grabbed one them, looked into their eyes and said, "Innocent?
Ha! It wasn't rude at all! They were rude to us Tyrannians."
After school, Aqua told said to me, "Goin' Tyrannian is just fine Buff, just
fine!"
