Trouble in the Making
The door to Class-D of the first years violently opened and a girl with long black hair and teal eyes runs it right before the bell rings.
Though she doesn't say "Made it!!!" loudly, she only solemnly walks to her seat, her head down.
Normally people would be able to see her different facial features such as her high cheekbones, her button nose, her dimples, and maybe even the slight aqua hue in her eyes but today, it seems a shadow covers her face.
Everyone, including the teacher, seems to notice the change in her usual mood.
Then two more students walk in, a boy with relatively average looks, except for his lightning blue eyes and his pale skin. But his hair is also slightly out of the ordinary since it's not fully curly or fully straight, more like something in the middle leaning towards the straight side.
Behind is a girl with short stature and cinnamon brown skin. Her dark brown eyes and auburn hair completes her look.
"You're late, that's a tardy, now sit down so we can start class."- says the strict teacher.
One, the boy, sits in front of the solemn looking girl who has the back window seat. The other, the girl, sits somewhere near the middle of the class.
And then the teacher starts the lesson.....
.....which I'm not listening to. Wait, who am I talking too? Must be my lack of sleep.....Maybe I should just sleep during first period, math is easy anyways. But....Stary's condition worries me....
Welp, can't necessarily stare at her the entire class the entire time to get an answer, I sit in front of her, guess I'll just bring it up at lunch.
"William! What does X equal in the equation 3x+2 over 5= 4x-3 over 10?"- Hmm, that's just a proportion....so 20x-15= 30x+20....5=10x...
"X= ½."- a little too easy. Didn't take even a minute.
"That's....right. Ok now..."- Don't need to listen Teach. Night~
-----------------------------------------------------------
*RIIIIIIIIIINNNNNGGGGG*- LOUD SCHOOL BELL!!!!!! Oh wait, that's the lunch bell,
"Finally! Lunch time!"- I immediately turned my desk around to face Stary and Lily walked over to us and grabbed an empty seat to pull up.
"So, what did you guys bring to lunch today?"- Well Lily, I bring my..
"Bacon burger with mash potatoes!"
"Won't that get cold?"- Lily asks me.
"Of course not! I made sure to properly keep the heat in!"
"How?"
"A heat pack!"
"Ok....what about you Stary?"- Lily asks her.
"....My mom packed it for me, so... I don't know yet." I say while grabbing the lunch bag out of my bag. I open it and it is an apple, apple juice, apple pie, and a sandwich.
"That's....a lot of apple....."- You said it Lily, but Stary still seems a little down in the dumps....hmmm, Lily, need some help here.
"So uh, OH! Did you guys of the hero last night! Apparently Nebula Swordsman stopped a pretty bad bank robbery last night!"- and I almost spit out a mouth full of mash potatoes. Why that of all topics?
"Oh? I think I saw him when I was taking my daily walk..." I like looking at the night sky while walking my two dogs, I saw him and ran inside. Just in case. But I only saw one other person, and they were recording it in a tree.
"Yeah, I heard he was super cool when he cut up the gunman's guns. The recording looks like an action movie!"- Stop it Lily! You might inflate my ego! And Stary, why worry, I don't bite....I cut....
"I think that person who recorded it could've gotten seriously hurt. He was lucky... Also, so was the hero, I mean imagine if the hero had to save a dumb civilian." I roll my eyes.
I can imagine it, because I've done it! That guy almost got shot by a stray bullet ten times because he was too busy filming me! Of course if I said that out loud I would be looked at strangely....ugh being a hero is hard....
"W-well, I've heard that Nebula has never lost a innocent on the job"- I don't care if my full superhero name has Swordsman in it, it's too freaking long!
"It's Nebula Swordsman, William, you have to get the name right"- Or what Lily, copywrite?
"Eh, I call him either or, Nebula or Swordsman, if you say all, it's a mouthful... like my name. And people like to shorten my name, so why not his?" Okay, it's a little different, I mean Astraea Idona Nuria Lexiss is a long name, very long.
"And calling him N.S. has the same initials as not suspicious....so either calling him Hero or Nebula is the better call."- Ugh, why did I ever come up with such a name?
I mean, I had a game character with that name that was also a swordsman so I thought it would be cool if I ever become a swordsman like my game character. And then one day.....I was caught in a street mugging....and the guy pulled a knife on me...Right when I was about to be stabbed for money I didn't have, something just happened and the guy with the knife was knocked out and the knife in my hand the next moment.
I don't know how, but I gained abilities on par with being super human. Higher perception, greater physical strength, extreme agility, extreme dexterity, and....I could use any type of blades in different ways. I even bought seven different ones to try it out.
Afterwards, I notice slight changes such as whenever I start using my abilities, the ends of my hair would turn dark blue, my eyes would glow slightly, and after I'm done using them, I notice that some things carried over, like high stamina and...
As I look at Will, I noticed he was deep in thought, so hopefully he won't question me about my sudden mood change in the morning. I mean... I wouldn't tell them, even if they beg. It was... oh... so horrible. I saw... a vision? How do I describe anything like that?
Lily, apparently saw our thoughtful faces, and thought she should destroy it. She pushed my nose, then pushed my head into Will's head...Why would she do to me?To us? Betrayal at it's finest.
"OW!!! Lily! I was thinking the mysteries of life here! Are you trying to shatter me skull here?!?!?"- I think her thick head messed up my speech pattern....
"Hey! Your head is too thick to even dent!"
"What are you talking about? I bet in a million years when they find your remains, they would put your skull in a museum with the label "Hardest Organic compound of the twenty first century"- she could probably run through walls with that head...
"Ha! Your one to talk! I mean you'll be able to break dimond with that hard as heck head! I mean come on!" I somehow ended up standing. Everyone is looking at us now, with amused smiles, even the teacher.
"Shall we test it then?"- I stood up and pushed my forehead against hers, you could practically see the sparks flying between our eyes
"I bet I could use you as a middle to sink a U.S. aircraft carrier!"- I could probably do that.
"At least i'll be useful! You're not at all!" I say, even I don't mean it. He's my best friend.
"Really? Well then, while you're sinking your own countries aircraft carriers, I'll be off in college studying to become an astrophysicist, let's see who will be more useful then!"- I'm not loosing to her this time.
"OH! NO YOU DIDN'T!" I jump on to him... I am a lunatic. No one even tries to stop us.
"What do you think you're trying to do now?"- I start stumbling back and push her off before I fall. If this were a real fight, that would never hit me....but whatever, I'm supposed to be the average kid, not the matrix dodge hero.
I pout and turn, then walk out the class. Hmpf...Well...at least I'm not sad. I'm smiling at our little arguement.
"Ugh...that girl really has no decency even in class....does she know that class is about to start?"- She is like at an energy level of ten all the time, she needs to dial it down..
"But at least she doesn't seem to be sad anymore~, I knew you could cheer up~"- Lily....what are you smiling for? She seems to be mad now...
*RRRIIIIIIINNNNNGGGGG*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Meeting up in front of the school is what we are presently doing. I walk to Lily and Will. I was held back to talk to the teacher about leaving the class and coming back 30 minutes later. Somehow I convinced him to let it off.
"Hey guys~!" I yell to Will and Lily, but I stop walking because a friend of mine was heading to me looking urgent.
"Kimmy? What's up? You look like there is something important we need to talk about." I ask my olive skinned friend. Her green eyes leak importance, and her light brown hair flows behind her fast walking figure.
"Astraea! I need help, there is this thing... you see my crazy aunt is coming over to my house tomorrow and... I need you to help me! She's absolutely crazy! She could be a villain for all I know!" She looks frantic.
Villain?....
"Can Rola really be that bad? Actually nevermind..." I shake off the memories of when I met her.
"Please... save me! You'll be a hero in my book!"
The book that doesn't exist...
Hmm, should I or shouldn't I? Eh, she gives such cute puppy eyes...Or am I just weak in that field? Whatever...
"Fine...but only for a bit... last time I helped you with this, I had nightmares~" I tease her.
"THANK YOU! I love you! SO much!" She squeals then runs off. What a crazy girl...
*Dida ding ding dading ding dading ding da ding~*- What, my phones going off? I pull it out to see..... WHAT!! A CAR CHASE!! Oh wait there is no...THERE IS A HOSTAGE?!?!
"Um guys...I got an urgent message so~, I gotta go. Catch ya later!"- and I run off, disappearing around the corner of a building.
