Another day, another term. Zoro hated getting up at silly hours in the morning to get ready to go to the hell people called school. But he felt motivated today. Today he will finish something he's put his heart into making for a special person in his life. He threw the covers off and put on his favourite pair of jeans, a band t-shirt and a worn out pair of black converse all-stars that had seen better days. Herding his necessities into his bag, he grabbed his swords and placed them into their holster, zipped it up and then made his way to school
Surprisingly to Zoro, he made it to school on time for once instead of getting incredibly lost and turning up about 20 minutes late to his first class. Not that he cared, or anyone else for that matter. Zoro was to be believed the least popular person in the whole of Grand Line Academy. His usual grumpy, laid-back attitude made people laugh at how miserable and melancholy he looked. The scar that went down his left eye added to a scare factor along with his aura of 'I'm going to kill you if you talk to me'. All though he was hated throughout the school, he was a promising athlete and a talented musician. However no one knew that. They were all too busy being absorbed into their own world of friends, fun and parties where you get so drunk you don't remember the past week. As much as Zoro liked a drink, he hated parties.
As Zoro walked through the gate, he was instantly noticed and people moved away from him and started saying sarcastic remarks. Not that Zoro really cared about what people said, he made his way through the herd of people and tried to navigate his way to his classroom. After a small struggle to get there, he eventually walked into the correct room and walked to his seat that the back corner of the room. As he sat down, Zoro noticed that most of the popular bunch was already here. The Straw Hat gang, their leader is a year 10 by the name of Monkey D. Luffy, a very energetic boy who had a special skill of making anyone his friend, be it if they have an evil trait or not, the second in command if you will is a year 10 called Usopp, Zoro didn't know his second name but all he knew about this boy is that he is incredibly talented when it comes to the art and using his imagination. The other members of the gang were Nami Mikan, a year 11 with long orange hair and a bust that looked like 2 footballs had been taped to her chest, all Zoro knew about her was that she was a money loving witch. He made mental notes never to ask her for anything.
Next up was a young boy who had been moved up a couple of years due to how clever he was, an aspiring doctor by the name of Tony Chopper, a cute little kid who you really couldn't stay angry at. And finally came the one that Zoro hated yet loved so much. His name is Sanji Vinsmoke, a knight in shining armour, a prince charming with his blonde hair, toned body and the ability to out cook even the best of chefs. He would flirt with all the girls in the school even the teachers would feel weak at the knees when he spoke to them. He was a dream come true and Zoro hated it.
He hated watching that stuck up prick waddle around doing a stupid dance whenever a girl spoke to him and a small trail of blood trickle down from his nose when he spoke to his oh so precious Nami-swan… But Zoro couldn't take his eyes off him. His swirly eyebrows added to that but Zoro was in awe of the man ever since he happened to come across him training in the gym. His long, elegant legs reaching heights Zoro had never seen and gusts of wind barreling away from his weapons every time he went to take a strike. It was mesmerizing and worth being yelled at by his dad for being late home that evening.
Not that Sanji would ever notice a loner like him or ever care about someone who is not on the high end of the important list. The list Zoro speaks of is the list of important people and staff in the school. The list goes like this;
Straw Hat gang - everyone wanted to be friends with these guys, they were the cool and collective group
Vivi Nefetari - A princess of a country outside of our own, she hangs around with the Straw Hat group a lot which added to her popularity.
Nico Robin and Franky Seven - They're the IT couple of the whole school, however Nico Robin is the history teacher and Franky is the DT teacher.
Trafalgar Law - The school's nurse - A heartthrob to all the girls at Grand Line Academy. Many people fake illnesses just to see him
Teachers - All the teachers in general - Even though there were a lot of misbehaving students, they still respected the teachers.
Year 11 - GCSE's - That's all there is, they get priority when it comes to the equipment and spaces
Year 10 - Started GCSE prep - Minimal priority
Year 9 - Childish idiots who are all pregnant…
Year 8 - All seem to think they're the dogs bollocks
Year 7 - They get shorter and shorter every year and have no manners
Roronoa Zoro
The classroom started to fill up with more students so Zoro then unplugged his earphones and turned his phone off getting ready to start. Math wasn't one of his favourite subjects but it's what he is best at. The teacher walked in and smiled at everyone. "Hello everyone, I'm your new maths teacher Silvers Rayleigh but please just call me Rayleigh. Okay we're going to be doing some algebra today so I can see your skills in that field." Groans around the classroom erupted whilst Rayleigh just laughed to himself. "Yes, yes I know not a fun topic at all. But you gotta do it. Okay, open up your books to page 68 and do each part for questions 1 to 4. I might call out on you if I don't see you working so have fun." Rayleigh said as he wrote his name and the instructions on the whiteboard behind him.
Shuffling could be heard around the classroom, light chatter and the quiet scratches of pens scribbling against the paper they all had. Zoro looked at the work he had to do and he had already done this work at home, so he picked up his phone and earphones once again, plugged them in and listened to 'Master of Puppets' by Metallica. Slightly too loud though because everyone around him, including Rayleigh at the front of the classroom could hear it. Zoro lead his head against his desk and then tried to fall asleep. 'Tried' as Rayleigh walked over to him and took out one of the earphone buds waking him up.
"What do you want?" Zoro grumbled, he sat up rubbing the back of his neck then looking around him to find out he was the centre of attention in the classroom, he sighed rather loudly. "Well Roronoa, it seems to me that you're not doing your work so I'd like you to answer the question I put on the board if you will please?" Zoro looked up at the whiteboard and saw an equation on the board.
Sighing again, Zoro got up and walked towards the board, grabbing the pen and started solving the equation. "Ah Roronoa, could you explain what you're doing as you're solving it so then the rest of the class could understand that would be a great help." Zoro groaned loudly enough for everyone to hear. Laughter erupted and slight whispers could be heard. "He's not gonna solve that." "What can he do?" Zoro growled internally and decided that he's going to prove them wrong, even though he hated showing off.
"Well considering everyone in here is too dumb to see that the answer is x2 - 32x - 10 = 0. Basically all you do is take the equation and as it's already set at zero, you can remove all the fractions by writing the equation in an equivalent form without fractional coefficients. You can do that by multiplying both sides of the equation by 2." Zoro then drew out what he was explaining and then wrote the answer on the board. "X2 - 32x - 10 = 0. There done can I leave now, I've already done most of the stuff in this book?" Zoro groaned as he placed the pen back down on the table and rubbed the back of his head. The class was stunned, who would've thought that Roronoa Zoro was good at maths. Rayleigh looked at him and smiled.
"Well done Roronoa, you are correct. You can go if you want, as long as you tell me where you're going." Rayleigh said with a smile, Zoro walked back to his seat, collecting his stuff and throwing his swords onto his shoulder causing the metal to clang inside the sheaths confusing the rest of the classroom. He stood up straight and looked at Rayleigh. "I'm going to go-"
Screams suddenly erupted from the hallway and everyone instantly ran over to the door to see what was going on. Down the hallway were a very large group of men and women holding various weapons including swords, guns and knives. Everyone in the classroom par 4 people ran to the back of the classroom in fear. The 4 still at the door was Rayleigh who just looked confused as to who would attack a school. Monkey D. Luffy who just looked dazed and confused. Sanji Vinsmoke who was admiring the women as all they wore was short jean shorts and bikini tops. Finally the fourth person still at the door was Zoro, eye's full of excitement and blood lust.
Zoro placed his stuff down on the floor, opened the holster for his swords and equipped them onto his hip. Everyone stared, astonished at the green haired man, 3 swords sat on his hip, one white, one red and one black with pink circles. Zoro drew the white one, the shing of the blade as it slid out of the sheath made everyone's skin crawl, the blade itself however was beautiful, high quality steel with a beautiful shine to it. It was obvious that that sword was well kept. Next Zoro drew the red one, an angry looking blade with an aura to match. The blade itself seemed to be growling in hunger and lust for blood. Finally Zoro drew the black and pink one, everyone seemed surprised to see a black blade erupt from the sheath, it shone against the reflection of the sun seeping in through the windows allowing blade look proud and strong.
Zoro walked out into the hallway with his three swords drawn and stood in front of the attackers. People in the neighbouring classrooms watched with interest and curiousness as to what Zoro was going to do. "Aww look at this a little savior has come to protect his school." One of the women at the front of the herd exclaimed causing a couple of giggles to erupt from those around her. Zoro sighed for the umptenth time today and held the white sword closer to his mouth. "I couldn't give a fuck what happens to this school. All I'm looking for…" Zoro placed the sword in his mouth and took a stance. "Is some fun…"
