Three's a Family/ Roberto Nevillis
A/N: Hello everyone! Sorry for being dead these past few months. I haven't really been focused on all my social media lately. I'm on summer vacation now, so I will have time to update more of my stories. Enjoy this part! (Also, if you see a line that has "PN" at the beginning of it, it stands for "Peabody Narrating".)
Mr. Peabody and Sherman are in the WAYBAC.
PN: Sherman and I set the WAYBAC to 1095, Venice, Italy to see Roberto Nevillis, the man who created the concept of homework.
The WAYBAC landed in the city of Venice, right in front of a small school house.
Sherman: (annoyed) I can't believe we have to go to school. It's the weekend!
Mr. Peabody: I understand Sherman, but Roberto, at the time, was a teacher at this school. We'll be able to see how he got the idea of giving children homework.
Mr. Peabody and Sherman walked into the school house. Once inside, they see Roberto Nevillis teaching his students addition and subtraction.
Roberto: (excited) Okay class, can anyone tell me what 1+1 is?
A little girl in the front of the room raises her hand.
Roberto: (excited) Yes, you in the front!
Girl: (dumbfounded) Umm…Is it 5?
Roberto: (disappointed) No.
Boy: (dumbfounded) 3?
Roberto: (disappointed) No.
Sherman: (yells) 22!
Mr. Peabody: (angry) Sherman!
Roberto: (angry) No!
Roberto starts flipping chairs and tables.
Roberto: (angry) This is BASIC MATH, children!
Girl: (confused) I thought this was science.
Roberto starts screaming as he continues to flip things.
Sherman: (confused) Wow, Roberto sure is upset, Mr. P!
Mr. Peabody: (concerned) Mr. Nevillis, are you alright.
Roberto walks over to Mr. Peabody, still steaming.
Roberto: (upset) No Mr. Doggy. My class is falling behind in math. It they do not pass the class, they BASICALLY fail at life! I'll be the WORST teacher in history!
Sherman: (curiously) Seems like they need a way to practice more when they aren't at school, Mr. Nevillis!
Mr. Peabody: (agrees) Yes, they might be able to pass that way.
Roberto thought deeply for a few seconds.
Roberto: (excited) I've got just the thing!
PN: (excited) At that moment, Roberto ran out of the room and, in 20 seconds, ran back with…a piece of chalk?
Mr. Peabody: (curious, confused) I'm sorry, Mr. Nevillis, but, what is that for exactly.
Roberto: (excited) You'll see, Mr. Doggy!
Mr. Peabody: (annoyed) It's Mr. Peabody…
Roberto writes something on the board.
Sherman: (Reads board) "24-hour school!?" Mr. Peabody, he can't do that!
Mr. Peabody: (confused) Mr. Nevillis, what are you doing?
Roberto: (determined) If these children don't learn anything outside of school, why let them out? I've locked us in so we can learn math FOREVER!
Sherman: (panicking) What are we gonna do, Mr. P? These kids have to go home!
Mr. Peabody: (concerned) I don't know, Sherman. But if we don't get Roberto to release these kids $ just give them homework, the future might not be too bright…
A/N: I feel like I could have made up a different issue for Mr. Peabody and Sherman to face. Whatever.
