" So you all will be beaten by me, Akari Mizuhito, if you try to get in my way to perfection, don't even try,  cause cooking is everything and I don't have interest in MOST of you " I said with full confidence and a smirk running across my face as my flaming red hair waving in the air as wind brush through it

" Woo-hoo!  You rock Mizuhito san! " yelled Soma among the rages of the others

I simply nodded and went back inside, turning my back to the angry crowd

And that's how it begins

----------------------------------------

" That transferred student is so arrogant, where does she thinks this place is for? Playing? " a girl whispered , looking at her with a weird expression

" Yeah! I agree! She shouldn't have been here since the first time, bet the school accepted lots of money from her family " another girl said then giggles

" I don't even have money to afford breakfast... but I'm sure as hell can buy your dignity " she murmured

Akari really don't mind those evil words they say which they think will poisoned her head, she shakes it all of, sharpened her knife and goes to the next class. Her first class ever.

" Etou..... room 350.... Here it is! " she opened the door which lead inside to see a big room with various sets of counters like kitchen, Akari looks around, analyzing the place and choose her own kitchen and wait for the teacher to come.

And of course when she was there, she could feel lots of eyes were looking at the direction she's at, she heard whispers, insulting words as well as yelling but she didn't know that the blonde guy was paying attention to her with a look of interests .

" Good morning class, my name is Roland Chapelle, I'll be teaching your class today...." he said with a stone cold expression, eyeing the class as his pupils running side to side, he spotted Akari, eyes widened but didn't say anything, he continued

" Your topic for today is " Pasta " " he said reading off the white envelope

" Yes! " Akari heard a small sound behind her, she turned around to see a handsome blonde boy with bright blue eyes, smiling, something tell her that he's not simple. He finally catches she looking, he smirks, eyes saying " I want to know how good you really are "

Akari look straight into his eyes " Same for you " then winked, she turned her heads to the teacher and continued listen to him talking unaware that she has been targeted by the girls around her.

----------------------------

" I have written the recipe on the board, now. Commencer! " ( begin in France )

She rushed to her ingredients, quickly but gently finishing parts by parts of the preparation, Akari were beautiful, like a violinist performing, a good violinist need full concentration, carefully pulling the strings to make beautiful sounds, just like the chef, Akari was working fast and her moves are very intense somehow she doesn't make any loud sound like the others, she was quiet, all you could hear was the other noises:knife clinching noises, chopping noises,....

Eight minutes has passed, Akari was on her way to complete her dish, put it into perfection and full of creativity. She put all her heart and effort into her dishes, her food makes people feel.... safe like they were tasting the taste of.... home.

" Yosh! Finish! " Akari said, wiping away sweat from her forehead as the other looking at her in awe, stunning at her speed, they didn't expect her to be the first, but Takumi, the blonde hair.

" Wow! She's already finished ! Doesn't that mean... she's faster than Takumi?! " the boys whispered as the girls threw dagger eyes at Akari.

Takumi was shocked at how little time she needs to finished the dish, he slowly remembered Soma words " She's stronger than me " he smiled at her then returned to master his dish with the last step.

She walked up to Chapelle sensei, presenting her dish, Seafood creamed pasta with Parmesan cheese, she called it " the Seasonal Warmth ".

" Please rate my dish, chef Chapelle, hope you enjoyed it " said Akari, Chapelle reply with a hum, he takes a fork, swirl and pick up the right amount of pasta and seafood. He analyzed the texture and the ingredients and come with a conclusion

" The pasta was perfectly cut, the melted Parmesan was richly united with the creamy texture and the pasta, but isn't it too much? You can't eat this too much because of the richness of the cheese and cream...." said Chapelle

Akari could hear the girls giggling and the boys whispering

" Ha! Fast doesn't mean it's good "

" I would like to see her face after getting an E "

.....

But Akari still smiles with confidence, Takumi is too, those losers won't understand and never will, only Takumi, the Italian expert which understands pastas and what she did to it.

" Come on Chef, please take a bite and figured it yourself " Akari said smiling

Chapelle put the pasta into his mouth, ready to have the second spoon, and another one, another one, another one,... and he finished the whole dish.
He made an impress face and happily looking at the young cook

" The cream was not too creamy at all and you used that point to make the cheese rich... very smart "

" Well, looks like you ate all of it, so, you can announce my grade " said Akari

" I give you an A! I feel very disappointed that I couldn't give you more in my position. Well done.... you reminded me of Yukihira, it was only two weeks after I met him until now. " said Chapelle

" Anyway! Please returned to your seat and wait for the class to end, Mizuhito san "

" Of course, Chef "

She returned to her seat as Takumi comes up, they walked passed each other as she whispered " Remember to give me some " and he smile

" Same for you " he said to her

They walked pass each other like two breezes of wind in opposite direction, she returned to her seat, watching the boy and Chapelle sensei.

" Takumi Aldini... what a nice name "
