The Navi Massacre
Chapter One
By Kellyq
Green eyes scanned the surroundings. His target wasn't very far ...
A young boy clad in a blue jumper walked up to a man wearing a white trench coat. His shirt was orange, and the pants were twentieth century bell bottoms.
"You wanted to talk to me,Meijin?"
The brown haired man nodded his head. "Yea. I have a solo mission for you ..."
The young boy's expression darkened. He hated going on missions without his 'partner' Blues. it made him feel weak.
"I know ..." the dark haired boy responded. "the stupid baka forgot his armor before he left for his own solo mission."
Meijin sighed. "Your mission to find a boy by the name of Lan Hikari," the brown haired man explained. He pulled out a disk, and handed it to Rock. "All the info you need to know is that disk."
The dark haired boy nodded his head. "Anything else?"
Meijin shook his head. "You're dismissed ..."
Rock looked at his outfit-changing-watch which read - 2:45. Lan should be out of school, the dark haired boy thought.
Brown eyes glanced at the clock, then back at the computer screen in front of him. The boy let out a sigh, and closed out some files when the bell rang.
"Okay," Miss Mari called to the class. "That's it for today, and don't forget to study for the next exam coming up."
Some of the kids left as Lan walked up to the desk. "How can I help my favorite student," the woman teased.
Lan smirked. "Well, your favorite student is returning late homework."
Miss Mari sighed. She looked up from what she was doing. "Lan, have you ever considered a tutor?"
Lan was about to counter back, when one of his friends with cherry red hair poked her head in. "We're leaving without you ..."
Miss Mari sighed again. "Alright. I'll let you off this time. But Lan ... try and study for the next exam."
The brown haired boy gave his teacher a fake salute, and walked out.
Once Rock heard the bell, he jumped down from a nearby tree and started to look around - as though he were looking for someone. Man - I had no idea that -
"Maylu," came a voice. Rock turned his head to see a young girl with long blond hair. She wore a pink short sleeve shirt with matching pants. That's got to be Lan right next to that girl with red hair, Rock thought.
"Oh ... hi ... what's going on?" Maylu asked Roll.
"Glide invited me to study over at his house - so I'm not coming home until late tonight."
Rock watched the whole thing deep in thought. He was snapped out of it when Roll noticed him.
She walked up and smiled at him. "Aren't you cute. What's your name?"
"R - Rock ..." He stuttered. What's wrong with me ...
Maylu chuckled. "Roll ... don't frighten him ..."
The blond girl ignored her sister. "Well, I have to get going, bye."
"I have to go too," Maylu said, and walked the other direction. "Oh ... and Lan. Don't forget to study!"
Lan just let out a nervous laugh and waved. Once Maylu was out of sighed Lan turned toward Rock.
"A new guy huh?"
Rock blinked. "Yea ... you could say that ..."
Lan smiled and extended his hand. "Rock is it? I'm Lan ..."
The dark haired boy nodded his head and shook the other boys hand. "I was thinking about going to this school. Anything you can tell me?"
Lan looked thoughtful for a moment. "The best person to ask is my teacher, Miss Mari."
Rock nodded his head. "What is a good time for that?"
"Before school ... I think ..."
Rock couldn't help but smile. He's not the brightest but he seems like a nice person ... "Anyways, I have to go ... and I hope we can become friends."
Lan grinned. "I'd like that!"
The dark haired boy smiled and watched the the brown haired boy run across the street.
I think I'm going to like this mission, Rock thought. He was now sitting in front of the computer, working on some data. I Wonder what kind of mission Blues has. The thought made Rock tense with frustration. His expression darkened, as he got to his feet and walked to where he left his watch.
Rock picked it up and slipped it on. He pointed it to the middle of the room, and pressed a few buttons. A moment later a holographic image of a tall man with long silver hair appeared. He was clad in a red trench coat, and dark pants.
The first thing Rock did was glared at the man. "What's the idea leaving your armor behind?"
The man smirked. "I don't need it for this mission ..."
Rock's expression darkened again. He knew that it was Blues' way of playing tough - and he knew better than argue with the elder man.
"Fine. Just promise me you'll come back safely ..."
Blues smiled down at the boy with a warm look. You're so cute, the man thought. "I promise I'll be come back soon ..."
Rock nodded his head and pressed a few buttons and the holograph shriveled away.
