Unfamiliar Faces

It was the start of the new school year at Kadic Acedemy, the morning was crisp and mild and the sun was lingering in the sky constantly being covered by wisps of clouds. The Lyoko gang had just strolled through the metal gates marking the entrance only to be greeted by Sissi's howling voice and a group of people.

"Wow. Sissi's already at someone's throat." Odd Della Robbia snickered.

"Some things will never change around here." Ulrich joined in.

"I feel sorry for the person she's harassing" Aelita said in her usual caring tone.

The school bell rang for breakfast, so as usual the gang headed to the cafeteria whilst Odd ran off not one to pass up on food. By the time Yumi,Ulrich,Aelita and Jeremie got to the cafeteria,to their horror, Odd had managed to stuff a whole croissant in his mouth. He smiled at his friends in a Chesher Cat style with the croissant.

Ulrich hit Odd in the back of the head with his hand causing Odd spit the croissant in Yumi's direction causing state of anger as it hit Yumi's top.

"OOOODDDDD!" Yumi yelled loud enough to attract the attention of everyone in cafeteria and divert it from the victims of Sissi's tormenting. Odd's face drained of colour and cowered away.

At that moment Jim had appeared behind Sissi whilst she continued to mock the inocent students.

"Miss Delmas!" Jim bellowed above her insults.

Sissi froze...the Lyoko gang were laughing at Sissi dispense and the crowd around her had dissolved into the normal atmosphere. It was then that Aelita could see exactly who Sissi's "victims" were.

At a table in the far corner of the Cafeteria there were two people a boy and a girl...Aelita couldn't recognise them, so...

"They must be new students" Aelita intetrupted Yumi about to kill Odd.

"Huh,where? Yumi said delaying as Odd called it, her "Death blow."

The school bell rang for first lesson.

oOoOoOo

"Okay class, today we have a new student." Mrs Hertz said.

As per usual, the class was mainly chatting, the only person actually wanting to learn was Aelita.

"Excuse me, hello?" Mrs Hertz began to raise her voice.

The class spun round to stare at the new student. A girl about the same age as Aelita was stood there, she has blonde hair and a pair of thick black framed glass over her blue eyes. She was wearing a black cardigan that was open, a blue blouse, a blue skirt with a tartan pattern with a black sequin butterfly and a pair of knee high black converses on top of a pair of black laced tights. Aelita noticed she had a book in her left hand, it was black and she was clutching it for dear life.

"So then, this is Amelia Valentine ans she'll be in our science lessons from now on." Mrs Hertz baffled on. "So I think thats the introduction done, go sit down and we'll get started on Molecular Structures of Living Organisms.

Amelia did as she was told and grabbed a seat at the back one desk away from Aelita and Jeremie and in front of her was Odd and Ulrich. Amelia was reading the black book she had brought with her.

oOoOoOo

" So I want you all to revise for a pop quiz next lesson." Mrs Hertz said whilst the school bell rang over her. The class groaned. "Class dismissed!"

The class swarmed out into the halls of Kadic for break.

The courtyard was calm and the Lyoko Gang was near the vending machine, it was then that the new girl Amelia walked over to get a hot choclate. Sissi blocked her way.

"Hey Bookworm,what you got there?" Sissi mocked as snatched the book away from her.

"Give it back!" Amelia had tears in her eyes.

Sissi opened the book to find a picture of two unknown people, a man and woman.

"Aww, how sweet, is someone missing there Mommy an-" Sissi was still mocking her when someone interupted her.

"Back off Delmas!" It was the new boy. He had had Black hair and a dyed blonde fringe, he was wearing a red chekcered shirt with a black undershirt with what seemed like a chunk of text that didn't seem to make sense on its own. He was wearing black jeans and red converses.

"Cameron?" Yumi gasped as the boy stood infront of Amelia and snatched the book back and herded Amelia away.

Sissi shot a death stare at him as he walked off, she then stormed off to Nicholas and Herb.

"Hey Yumi, who was that?" Ulrich questioned

"Oh, that's Cameron Valentine" Yumi replied.

"So Amelia and Cameron are related?" Aelita pondered.

"Yeah, he was talking to Me and William in Maths" Yumi answered. "He and his sister are orphaned. He has an older brother but hes away..."

" I wonder what was in that book." Jeremie said almost interupting Yumi.

The school bell rang and the group headed to the next lessons.
