"Oh! But why him? Why not someone that's not so DAMN WEAK, Athena!?!!!" A tall boy with hair two shades of blue looked towards a car that was pulling into a driveway with pure disgust. "Why that?" Athena just giggled at the angered boy before her.
"But Kai, sweetie, your supposed to help the weak ones. If they were all strong what would be the point?" Kai hated her. She was always right. Kai glared at the ancient woman.
"So what if your three thousand years old, it doesn't mean you know everything!" Athena giggled again before kissing the boy's cheek sweetly. She disappeared. Kai glared at the thin air.
"Dammit!!" He cussed to himself as he walked to the newly parked car. A small, long raven-haired boy slowly stepped out the car, hands full of books. He tripped out onto the pavement spilling his books everywhere. A short man slammed his door on the other side and rushed to the boy's side. But instead of consoling him as Kai thought he would, the man give the small boy a quick slap to the face. Kai blinked slowly.
"Gomen Nasai, Outosan." The boy said softly as he slowly lifted his head to the older man. He responded with another slap to the boy's face.
"Damn!" Kai stopped just short of the scene to watch.
"Well you had better be Rei, you little bastard." Rei nodded his head swiftly. He gathered up all of his fallen books in to his arms.
"I won't do it again Outosan." Jin {um the man is too long so randomly this is his name Be proud I had to look for hours to find good Chinese and Russian names for Rei and Kai's parents. } glared hard at the small boy before him.
"And you better not. Think about how it makes me look when my only son falls out of MY car on his way to school." Rei nodded and Jin got in his car and drove off. Kai starred after it dumbfounded. All that just because he fell out the car? Don't make him look bad? Damn! 'I guess he does have it pretty bad.' Kai thought to himself. 'Fine then Athena I'll do it.' He started to walk to the building and looked up at the sign.
"Sengo Private High School" Kai read aloud. 'Wait high school? That little kid can't be in high school. Athena said he was 13.' His thoughts were suddenly interrupted.
"Ow. Oh! Gomen, Gomen, GOMEN!!!" He bowed to Kai who he just ran into. 'Damn he's messed up.' Kai thought. " I'm so sorry, I wasn't looking were I was going." Rei began to scamper up off the ground and Kai held up a hand.
"It's all right! Breathe." This made Rei laugh and suddenly cover his mouth. And this made Kai start laughing. Kai swallowed. 'I guess I have to make friends with him.' "Well anyway, Hi. My name is Kai. And what's your name?" Kai pulled an obvious fake smile on the small boy. He just looked him.
"Are you new here?" Kai nodded with an odd expression. "Oh" Rei sighed disappointingly. "Well my name is Rei, and your not supposed to like me. I guess you'll find out later." Kai gave him a look.
"The hell?" Kai muttered. Rei blinked.
"Haven't you ever been to school?" Kai sweatdropped. "I'm the kid that everyone hates. The unpopular kid. the one that if you hang out with me your not cool. So if you want to fit in here I suggest that you find someone more popular." Kai burst out laughing.
"Like I give a shit!" Rei looked at him in awe. "Well anyway don't we have class now? Why is there no one else here?" Kai asked looking around the school grounds as the crickets chirped.
"I always get here really early. I like to help the teachers and stuff." Rei smiled. 'Damn he's all nice and shit. Why in hell does his father hate him so much? How can he treat so a nice kid this way?' Kai looked at Rei. As soon as they made eye contact Rei looked away. Kai tilted his head up.
"From now on you and me are best friends, okay?" Kai figured that maybe if he spent more time with the small boy then he'd get to liking him. Rei almost knocked the other boy over.
"Really?!! Really?!!" Rei asked over excited. "I've never had a friend before." Kai smiled.
"Neither have I." He whispered to himself. Rei blinked.
"Did you say something Kai?" Kai shook his head. Kai slapped his hands together.
"Well if I'm here I might as well go to class." He looked up at his class list. His eyes bugged out. 'Holy shit! Athena I'm gonna kill you.' "AP Ancient European History with a Kona." Rei
looked up.
"Hey that what I have first too! I'll show you there." Rei smiled at the taller boy. "Let me see your schedule." Kai handed him his schedule. "Wow your classes are the same as mine!" Kai glared at the air. 'Go figure. Damn you Athena' Rei looked up at the tall boy.
"But these are all 11th grade classes. You can't possibly be past 16. How?" Rei smiled again.
"I skipped 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th grades. But I don't really think I'm as smart as everyone thinks I am." He blushed as Kai stared.
"FOUR GRADES?!!!!!" Rei covered his ears. A bell rang.
"Ah! I have to get to the classroom." Kai blinked. "I have never been this late before. That was the teacher's bell." Kai grabbed his arm before he could run off.
"Chill kid. You have to show me the way remember?" Rei smacked his head and turned the tables. He grabbed Kai's hand and ran. Finally they arrived. "Damn you run fast! Why don't you join the track team or something?" Rei frowned.
"My dad would get mad at me. I have to focus on my studies. Plus no one would like it if I joined the team. They all say I will ruin everything." He became distant for a moment, then bounded in the classroom. "Hello Kona Sensei! How are you today?" The frail looking old lady turned to face the young Rei. She smiled brightly upon seeing his face.
"Well I'm just fine thank you, Rei." She said happily. "And who is this strapping young man next to you?" Kai glared slightly as she pointed. This made her laugh.
"This is Kai! He is new here and has this class first." Her eyes widened remembering something.
"Oh yes, Kai Hiwatari, right? The exchange student from Russia?" Kai give her a look.
"Russia? What is this Russia you speak of?" Kai stated quite melancholy. Mrs. Kona looked at him jokingly.
"you're kidding right?" Kai looked at her weirdly.
"I know of no Russia." As soon as he said this a young lady with bright, flowing white hair walked in.
"Athena?" Mrs. Kona and Kai shared a look. Kai stared at her. "What the hell are you doing here?"...
He blinked. "Why am I speaking in German?" The other two stared at them both. Athena spoke up.
"I will need to talk to Kai for moment please." Mrs. Kona nodded and they walked out.
"Why am I speaking in German?! Athena!" She smiled at the clueless boy.
" I know you died a long time ago, but you need to seem like you were born in this time. Now your home country is called Russia. If you don't understand something about the timeline, just pretend you do. okay?" Kai nodded.
"Now can I speak Japanese again?" She smiled and disappeared. "Domo!" Kai called after her. He returned to the classroom to find Mrs. Kona franticly looking through her papers.
"Ah! Then you're NOT Kai Hiwatari." Kai inwardly growled.
"No I am Kai and I was just joking." Rei ran up to him.
"You want to help me clean up the classroom?" Kai looked at the classroom. It WAS clean. 'Why?' He decided against saying that.
"Sure" He twitched a little as he said it and gained a laugh from the teacher and a confused look from Rei.
~..........after school........~
'Damn I'm going to kill Athena! That's not fair! The only class I even understand anything was German. I guess that's because I speak it. How in the hell does this kid get A's in all this shit. He's ahead the entire class in every one! And he should be in 6th grade?! Damn.' Kai thought angrily. He had just been through AP European History, AP Zoology, SP Trigonometry, AP German, AP 3D Art and P.E. 'Damn school sucks.' A giggle ran through his ears.
"Athena!" He ran after her. "Why? Why this?" He shoved the schedule in her face. She smiled already knowing what was on it.
"It's the classes Rei is in. Rei is smart, deal with it. But you know you have to get at least C's or send you back to "Russia"" She said putting emphasis on Russia. Kai choked.
"C's!? I'd be lucky to get a Z in any of those classes. Except for Art and German. But!" She interrupted him...
"And so you need a Tutor with the same classes, right?" Kai glared.
"You, You planned this didn't you?!! That's not fair. Damn YOU!!!" Athena continued ignoring him.
"And one more thing! You have Karate on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. And yes before you say it, I know you were a black belt and yes I know you don't need it, but Rei is good and you need to be near him as many times as possible." Kai glared. Athena smiled.
"Fine. Whatever! I give up." He raised his hands in defeat and Athena disappeared. 'Guess I have to go and find him again. Dammit!' He walked back toward the schoolyard. He remembered that Rei wanted to stay after to work on German stuff. Kai sighed heavily and headed for the German classroom.
