Hello everyone! This is my first original story so hopefully you'll enjoy it! XD Also, just a small note, the one referred as "Bakura" in this chapter is Ryou bakura and not his yami.
Chapter 1: First day
Welcome to Silverwing high! A school for students with special abilities located on an island south east of Japan. Teenagers chosen by fate were given special abilities but also had something taken from them in return and this was called a 'consequence'. There had been a rise in demonic activity in the world and the monsters could only be stopped by the 'mutants', which was the given name to humans with special abilities, although it was quite exaggerated. Said mutants with strong powers and bad attitudes were sent to Darkwing High, a school located on an island north east of Japan, whilst the ones with weaker abilities attended Silverwing High.
This was the case for Yugi Moto, a 16 year old boy with the ability to pass through objects. He had always been picked on by the school bullies, but one day, his new ability had allowed him to easily escape their clutches. This however, came at a terrible cost. A month later, Yugi's father died in a car crash and it was around that time he received an invitation to attended the private school Silverwing High. Surprisingly, Yugi met a lot of his friends from his old school whom he had no clue had abilities as well. There was Joey, the hot head with firepower, Tea who could shapeshift into anyone she's ever touched, Duke who could become super stretchy, and Tristan who had super strength. Although the school rules strictly forbid the sharing of ability and consequence, some were physically obvious. For instance, Tristan's hair gave him super strength, but as a consequence, he went bald.
Yugi used to hang out with his friends all the time, but since they got to the island, Tea only hanged out with Serenity, and Tristan and Duke had become obsessed with Joey's sister. They would constantly fight over her but the girl could easily escape by turning herself and whatever she touched invisible. There was also a new student, Bakura, who had arrived from England. Yugi and Joey quickly became friends with the boy.
It was the beginning of the school year and also its second year opening. Everyone was starting eleventh grade, except Serenity that is, who was a year younger. (The school was opened to students from grade 9 to 12) It was a Monday morning and as it was custom, every student made their way to the gymnasium and were seated in the bleachers. The principal as usual, wore his bright red vest and stepped behind the small podium where everybody could see him. He tapped gently on the mic to get the chatty teenagers' attention and coughed a couple times before starting.
"Hello students," Pegasus' voice resonated through the speakers. "I would like to greet you all to Silverwing High once again! Last year went wonderfully smooth and I hope to have another great year with you all." Students were already getting bored as Pegasus introduced all of the staff members again. Of course, everyone would pay attention to the beautiful nurse Cecelia. She had golden blond hair and deep blue eyes that made every boy's heart flutter. But no one ever dared make a move on the lady seeing as she was the Principal's wife… The last teacher to be introduced was Ms. Ishizu Ishtar. The usually calm and happy woman seemed tense for some reason which struck Yugi as odd. Was something going on that he didn't know about?
"I now have a very special announcement to make." Said Pegasus. "As you know, our neighbors from the north's abilities are centered mostly on strength and that can sometimes let it get to their head." There was a burst of laughter from the audience. "Yes well, their principal Dartz and I have decided that it might be good for them to experience something different so we invited those which… how should I put this… have been very difficult so to say, to our school. That way they can be influenced by your good will." Every student gasped in their seat and turned to worry with their friends. 'How could he do this?!' Yugi thought. 'He invited the rudest, self-absorbed and most powerful students from that school! They're going to eat us alive!'
Pegasus could hear the worry in their whispered voices. "Fear not my students," he said holding out his hand for silence. "We have taken measures to insure you will all be safe and that these students will behave themselves. Speaking of which, they will be arriving tomorrow and I expect you treat them all with respect. This year we've also organised a special week of activities to make their transition here a pleasant one!" Murmurs of excitement echoed but Pegasus didn't stop to listen. "Wednesday there'll be a tournament and whoever wins will get to go on a rescue mission with a known mutant, isn't that exciting?" Whispers had now turned into loud chatters. "Yes I can see you're all very excited. Thursday we've organised a carnival and Friday will be a Ball! Literally. And it's mandatory so I expect to see all of your young faces there." The crowd had quiet down into disappointed or angered mumbles. Many were not pleased about attending a stupid dance. "This concludes the morning meeting," Pegasus continued cheerfully, "class will start in thirty minutes. Enjoy your recess!"
Yugi hadn't bothered getting up. It was stupid to be swept up in a huge crowd making its way out of a single door. "What do you guys think about our new guests?" Bakura asked nervously. "I don't know about you guys but this was a safe haven against bullies for me, and now there's a whole new patch of them coming…" Said Yugi pulling his legs close to his chest. "I'm not worried about 'em," said Joey as he lay against the wall with his hands thrown behind his head, "I'll protect you guys if they ever try to pick on ya! And besides, this tournament sure sounds interesting with all those powerful new guys and all!" "You're not planning on entering that are you?!" Asked Bakura wide-eyed with worry. "Of course!" Shouted Joey. "I must be the most powerful mutant here, why shouldn't I enter da tournament?" "I sure hope you know what you're doing." Yugi whispered as a hand was placed on his shoulder. "Don't worry buddy," Joey said confidently, "everyone is making a too big deal outta this thing, I'll be fine." Yugi nodded and rose from his seat to make his way towards the exit with his friends.
So there you have it! Hope you guys liked it, I plan on making this a pretty long series with about 25 chapters... ya... I don't plan on being one of those people that start something and don't finish it so don,t you worry! ;) I've already got over ten written up so I'll be posting those shortly too.
Please let me know what you think, I love knowing what I'm doing right and wrong so that I can improve!
