To Be E.V.I.L
Chapter One
So I know this story is very similar to my other story, The Next Generation, but this is still different. And I might be deleting The Next Generation. And also, this is the E.V.I.L organization's school, so...yeah. There are some villains you see in USM's children, so I might make references to that! And yes, there still are teen heroes, because most of the villains in the show are adults anyways, so it would make sense for them to have children. And then there are some OCs of mine, too, so it's a mix. So without further ado... E.V.I.L (Emerging Villain Institution for Learning) Academy!
"Andy Jensen?" Taskmaster calls out as he does attendance.
"Here." a bored voice responds.
Andy. The future Beetle. Not really evil, but not really good, either. More of an anti-hero. His father is a legendary mercenary, and whenever we train in groups, Andy usually beats us all when we're least expecting it. He has a very promising future, and almost everyone likes him. And he's good looking.
"Sandy Marko?"
"Here!" a cheerful voice answers.
Sandy. She inherited her father's sand powers. She came to mostly control her powers, but who knows? She could be Sandwoman. She's always bubbly and cheerful, and even though she gets on our nerves, we know she's always there for us whenever we need a shoulder to cry on, and we're nice to her whenever we can be. I don't think she's really that villainous, though. If anything, she'd be a hero, but she doesn't want to let her father down. She's also my training partner in the afternoon.
"Shea Kravinoff?"
Shea is the next hunter. The next Kraven the Hunter, though I've heard she might change the name.
"Here," she says in her thick accent. I assume she got that from her father, but she was born in America, so...? Well, I don't know. Manipulative, pretty...not a good combination. Her father couldn't be more proud of her. She's training to kill White Tiger. I hope she does. That cat annoys me.
"Gemini Fury?"
"Here." A cold voice says.
Gemini Fury. Daughter of Scorpio, and niece of Nick Fury, director of S.H.I. , E.V.I.L's rival. Though her loyalty might be questioned by outsiders, she's one of the most evil students here. She's one of the queen bees in this school.
"Olivia Octavius?"
"Here," a shy voice pipes up from near the back of the room. Olivia, the daughter of Doctor Octopus, is here to follow in her father's evil footsteps. But I have the feeling she doesn't really want to. She knew her father before he went all nutso, and I don't think she really wants to do that. I've heard rumors she just wants to be a marine biologist.
"Lightning Wittman?"
"I'm here." She crosses her arms.
Lightning is the daughter of Thundra and the Wizard, and with that much villainous heritage, she's a star student. She has a bad temper, much like her mother, and will shove you into a wall if you so much as talk to her. Believe me, I've done that before.
"Felix Creed?"
Felix narrows his feline-like eyes and hisses "Here."
Felix. Son of Sabretooth. I swear, he's more cat than human sometimes. But he's a pretty nice guy, actually. Has a way with cats, it's almost like he can talk to him. Handy when he doesn't feel like attacking someone.
"Clay Ambrose?"
"Here," he answers.
Clay...well, if everyone's evil here, Clay is the exception that makes the rule. He is the nicest guy I know, and is literally KIND. That's why he can control the Carnage symbiote. His kindness battles the savageness, and ultimately, Clay wins. That's why he's so valuable. He's like a killing machine in control of his actions. We recruited him before S.H.I.E.L.D could get to him, and we have an asset. He's one of my best friends, and we train a lot together, he's one of my training partners.
"Drew Von Doom?"
No answer. I look over at the seat beside me, and sure enough, Drew's face is pressed up against his desk, snoring away.
Taskmaster sighs. "Drew?"
I reach over and flick him in the head. "Drew! Wake up!"
Drew blinks. "Huh...? Oh, hi, Mr. Masters! Hey...where is this place?" He cocks his head.
The girls begin to giggle.
I facepalm. "Class, you idiot. We're in class. Hero Study, remember?"
"Ohh, yeah. Um, here."
Drew is Doctor Doom's son, and consequently, the heir to the Latverian throne. So he's not someone you'd want be on his bad side. Because he's basically royalty. I'm glad he's my best friend. He's hilarious, and always good to have around. And he's also a girl magnet.
"Duly noted, Mr. Von Doom. Erity Lin?"
An Asian girl raises her hand. "Here."
Erity is the supposed cousin of Scorpion, the exiled warrior from K'un L'un. Critical and calculating, she gets some of the best scores in the class, but no one really knows her that well. She's handy with a staff, though. I can tell you that.
"Jace Hardy?"
"Here," his silky-smooth voice answers.
Jace is the nephew of the famous Black Cat, revered among girls as the first big-time girl villain, and revered among boys as the sexiest villain. Felicia also teaches a class here, Cat Burglary, which I'm pretty good at. Jace is a master thief and a master seducer, just like his aunt. If he does decide to go out with a girl, it almost never last, but dang, do those girls have stories...
"Calico Hardy?"
"Here," a sweet, feminine voice responds.
Calico is Jace's twin sister. Niece of the Black Cat, the villain crush of most of the boys at E.V.I.L Academy. And once they realize that them and Black Cat just isn't going to happen, they go after Calico. Luckily, she's got her own skills and her brother to protect her from creeps. And at a villain training school, believe me, there are a lot of creeps.
"And Dylan Masters?"
"I'm here, dad. I think you knew that already." Drew snorts. Actually, I'm not sure if he snorted or snored. Guess he stayed up too late training to rule Latveria.
Yes, Taskmaster is my father. And I go to the same school he's a teacher at. It's really not that bad, though. He doesn't treat me any different than the other students except for occasionally giving me pointers in class.
"Okay, I think that's everybody. Today the hero we'll be focusing on is Iron Fist. What are his powers?"
Almost everyone's hand is up, except for Drew. I think he fell asleep again. Poor kid.
"Erity?"
"Iron Fist, also known as Daniel Rand, has the power of the iron fist, a blessing from Shou-Lao. He is skilled and has mastered most, if not all, martial arts techniques, and has the limited ability to sense strong desires and in some cases thoughts." Erity folds her arms with a smug look on her face. Like I said, she's a top student. And she knows more about Iron Fist and magic than any of us, due to her being from K'un L'un. And her cousin, Scorpion, was Iron Fist's best friend, I think. So it makes sense. Erity wants revenge for Scorpion, whom I'm assuming she was quite close to. In the form of killing Iron Fist.
Hey, we're all villains here.
"Very good. What are some of his known weaknesses?"
Okay, this is something I don't know, and by the confused looks on the rest of the classes' faces, they don't know it either.
Taskmaster sighs. "Nothing? Really, guys. If you're going to be villains, you've gotta put some effort into it."
The class avoids Taskmaster's eyes.
"Well, he doesn't have many known ones, but there are some. Iron Fist is best to be fought with intelligence, not force. I'll be showing you a clip here of how Scorpion defeated him."
Instantly, the holo-pads on our desks lit up, showing a 3-D clip of Scorpion lashing out at Iron Fist, his grappling hook gleaming with some purple goo. The hook hit him, and Iron Fist cried out in pain and surprise. Then the screens went black.
"As you saw there, the blinding poison did its job, and if Spider-Man wasn't there, then Scorpion could have finished Iron Fist off. So when fighting Iron Fist, use your smarts, not your strength. Create a plan, and if possible, get him alone. If his team shows up, well, it's best to make a tactical retreat and stay unharmed to fight another day than to engage and possibly end up captured or worse."
We nodded in understanding. Taskmaster had drilled this into our heads, that if we were outgunned and or outnumbered, then it was okay to retreat. Not retreating is what got a number of our parents locked up...or even worse.
"I'll be bringing a few of the LMDs in for a few of you to practice on," Taskmaster said.
Some of the E.V.I.L Academy alumni and teachers were able to steal and reprogram some of S.H.I.E.L.D's LMDs so we could practice fighting the heroes safely. The students with the best grades or the biggest grudges were usually the ones to practice, where the others watched, and hopefully learned.
"Erity, Felix, Gemini, Clay. Get your weapons or symbiote and get ready to fight." Taskmaster pushes a small button on the wall of the far side of the classroom, and that wall opens up into a large, metal-walled training room, with all of the fancy toys from supervillain sponsors.
Erity, Felix, Gemini, and Clay walk out of the classroom and to the lockers, where we keep all of our weapons and class stuff. Erity returned holding her metal staff (with ejectable spikes on the ends!), Felix with his claw-gloves and enhanced, well, everything, Gemini using her zodiac-enhanced laser guns, and Clay with a vial of Carnage.
"Let's go! Clay, suit up!" Taskmaster ushered them into the training room.
Clay did as he was told, and uncorked the vial of Carnage. The Carnage latched onto him, the red symbiote covering him, until he was kid-size Carnage. "I'm ready," he hissed.
"GO!" Taskmaster pressed a button on a holo-pad, and a glass covering separating the training room from the classroom came down. He pressed something different, and the LMDs came out, four of them, in the guise of Iron Fist, each one engaging a different student.
Clay finished off his Iron Fist first, because he's Clay and he's super powerful. Clay did a flip over the head of the charging Iron Fist, who in turn turned around and latched onto Clay's leg, bringing Clay down. However, Clay kicked him with his free leg, and oozed out of the Iron Fist's grip. Clay shot the Iron Fist with webbing, tying him up, and punching him to knock him out.
Clay stood up, brushed off his hands, and said, "Done." Just like that.
Felix was finished second. He's a little like White Tiger, but more powerful. All White Tiger does is slash at her enemy and then get thrown off or knocked out. But Felix...well, Felix has enhanced strength, agility, reflexes, smell, hearing, EVERYTHING.
Felix dodged the Iron Fist's punch, and slashed at its chest with his claws, then lashed out and kicked him in the same spot he clawed him, to add to the pain. Not that LMDs could feel pain. The Iron Fist recovered quickly, pulling some Judo move on Felix, but with his enhanced reflexes, Felix ducked and swept the Iron Fist's feet out from under him. He then pounced, and slashed that thing to ribbons. Sort of. He slashed it a lot, but didn't necessarily destroy it.
Erity was third, holding off the Iron Fist until she could get a clear shot to jab her staff into it, the spiked tip filled with poison. And, since LMDs are supposed to be realistic, it shut off, because if it were real, it would've died from the poison.
She's not a girl you want to mess with.
Gemini didn't finish at all. I guess her hand-to-hand combat skills and laser guns weren't enough. She tried shooting from a distance, but the Iron Fist charged, fist glowing, and she wasn't fast enough. Luckily for her, the Iron Fist didn't have the power of the actual Iron Fist, and she just took a punch. Either way, I'm sure it was a painful reminder.
"Good job, all of you. And Gemini...you tried. Remember, if that was real life, then you'd be knocked out cold now. And be in S.H.I.E.L.D custody. Train harder against Iron Fist LMDs." Taskmaster stared at her through his skull mask.
She nodded. "Of course, sir."
"Good. And...wait for it..." He glanced at his watch.
BRINGGG!
"Class is dismissed. Good work." Taskmaster than closed the training room, sending the cleaning bots to get rid of the half-destroyed LMDs. If an LMD was completely destroyed, one of E.V.I.L's technicians built another. We usually had about 30 to use, sometimes less.
A flood of students rushed out of the room, carrying me with them. I stopped at my locker to get my things for Teamwork.
My schedule is this:
Dylan Masters, son of Taskmaster.
9:40 – 10:35 Villainous Practices w/ Doctor Doom
10:40 – 11:30 Hero Studies w/ Taskmaster
11:35 – 12:35 Teamwork w/ Frightful Four
12:35 – 1:05 Lunch
1:10 – 2:10 Cat Burglary w/ Black Cat
2:15 – 3:15 Tracking and Hunting w/ Kraven the Hunter
3:15 – 4:15 Training w/ Sandy Marko
4:15 – Go Home
Teamwork is with the Frightful Four, supposed experts on teamwork. If you ask me, I don't exactly agree with that, but...well, there aren't many villain teams out there that aren't completely furious with each other or incarcerated. The Frightful Four broke out of prison, and are now residing and teaching at E.V.I.L Academy.
Some students, like Lightning, and others whose parents or parent are incarcerated, live at E.V.I.L Academy. But most of us go home to our moms or dads or guardian or whoever. I live with my dad, Taskmaster, and my mom, Donna Masters.
Who said supervillains can't love?
I grab my books (we don't bring our weapons unless we're told to get them) and head to Teamwork. We have different teams each week, and since it's Monday, I'll be getting a new team.
I slide into my desk, Calico on my right, and Felix on my left. I turn to Felix. "Hey, good job today in Hero Study. That was amazing, man."
Felix grinned, showing his extra-sharp canines. "Thanks. I swear, I'm gonna kill that guy when I go out in the field when I'm older. Or kill Wolverine, though I might stay out of that feud...I mean, I don't get why my dad wants to kill his own brother...that confuses me."
"Well, I think all of us have our share of insane or crazy dads. Though my family is pretty normal. Except for the fact my dad is a supervillain sometimes. But we still have family movie night and stuff. You should come over sometime, if you want to get away from your dad. My friends do that stuff all the time."
"Thanks, Dylan. I might take you up on that offer. What kinds of movies do you usually watch?"
"Oh, different kinds. My favorites are action, my dad likes horror...figures...and my mom likes romance."
"Cool. You're really lucky to have a family, you know...my dad's a lunatic, and my mom kind of fled...so I stay at my uncle's house."
"Wolverine?" I ask in shock. I thought his dad wanted to kill Wolverine...?
"Yeah. Neither of them know it, though. I just sort of sneak in there, usually spend the night and stuff...Wolverine pretty much lives at Xavier's, I'm not sure why he even has an apartment. It's not that bad, though. I can do whatever I want."
"Have you ever considered living at the Academy?"
"Yeah, but my dad doesn't want me to...says he doesn't trust some of the teachers..."
"Why does he even send you here, then?"
Felix shrugs. "My guess is to let me get an education in being a villain, and to keep me out of his way."
"Well...if you ever need anything, I'm here for you."
"Okay-"
"ENOUGH TALK!" bellows Thundra.
I cringe. The nightmare begins.
"Today we will be assigning your new teams, and you'll be fighting against each other." The Wizard begins to count us off in fours.
"Drew, Calico, Dylan." We all look at each other. I'm thrilled to be working with Drew, but Calico...? Not sure...
"Felix, Olivia, Andy." I wonder how Olivia's gonna hold up.
"Jace, Erity, Clay." Oh God. That's gonna be hard to beat.
"Sandy, Lightning, Shea. Gemini, you'll be back up for Lightning's team."
Okay, that is NOT fair. Lightning gets back up? I sense favoritism here.
Gemini narrows her eyes at the Frightful Four and slides deeper into her seat. Gemini's ruthless, but she never has been a good fighter.
"Name your teams, and then report back to us for your opponents." The Frightful Four then go back to reading, painting their nails, and watching TV. Wow. Excellent teaching, guys.
We get into our groups. "So...any names?" I ask Drew and Calico.
"Nope. None. I vote for 'No Namers'." Drew yawns.
Great. I get paired with a sleep-deprived prince and a pretty kleptomaniac. I'm pretty sure Calico just stole something of mine.
I turn to her. "Give it back."
She bats her long black eyelashes at me. "I didn't take anything."
I squint at her. "Yes, you did. You have that look on your face."
"What look? Do you stare at me so much that you know what looks I make?" She smirks.
"No, you've stolen enough of my stuff that I know when you've taken something from me."
"You're no fun." She rolls her blue-gray eyes and hands me my stylus I'd been twirling between my fingers. Dang, she's good.
Drew snaps his fingers. "I've got it. The Terrifying Trio!"
"No," both Calico and I say at the same time.
He shrugs. "Hey, it was worth a shot. None of you have any ideas. I'm just trying to participate."
"It's not bad, it's just the first thing people will think of. Which is why we're going with...Masterminds!" I said.
"Cool with me. I'm not sure if people describe me as a mastermind, though..." Drew squinted in thought.
I rolled my eyes. "You're close enough."
"Fine. I consider myself to be one." Calico sat on top of a desk.
I clapped my hands. "Well, it's settled! Masterminds! I'll go tell the incompetent fools who run this cla- umm, teachers."
I went up to the Frightful Four. "Dylan's team are the Masterminds."
Thundra typed it in on a holo-pad. "Hope you can live up to that name, kid."
Umm...isn't it just a class? Thundra, I think you're taking this too seriously.
"Uh...yeah, um...sure..." I hurried back to my team.
"LISTEN UP!" Thundra yelled. "Our teams are the Masterminds against the Lionhearts, and the Terrible Trio against the Strikeouts. FIGHT!"
The Wizard pressed a button (is it just me, or do Klaw and the Trapster seem to be in a coma? Or maybe they're asleep? Maybe Thundra knocked them unconscious...) and the training room came into view. All of the classrooms connect to the training room.
I got swept up in the sea of students clamoring to get to their lockers, and found mine after dozens of "excuse me"s and "sorry"s.
I opened the locker and get my weapons, a compact machine gun and a force shield, like my dad's. I stuff a few daggers in my pockets, just for good measure.
I walk back into the classroom, where Drew has a worried look on his face.
I raise an eyebrow. "What?"
He nervously taps a foot. "Guess who the Lionhearts are."
Oh dear lord. Jace, Erity, and Clay. Some of the most powerful people in this school.
"We're gonna get creamed..." I trail off.
He sighs. "I know."
Calico comes up to us. "What are you two dorks talking about? I know all of my brother's weaknesses. Clay's too nice, he won't hurt us, or really do anything to us. As for Erity...she's good, but she's not quick. I'll take Jace, Drew, you take Clay, you're his best friend, and Dylan, you're quick, you take Erity. We have a chance, trust me. We just need to make this work."
"Well, I'm feeling inspired! How about you, Dyls?"
I pinch the bridge of my nose. "Don't call me that."
"Anything for you, Dyls!" Drew calls out as he straps on his heat-ray gloves. Drew has no need to wear his father's suit yet, and I don't think he really wants to, but he does have to have some weapon, so he took with him his father's spare set of heat-ray producing gloves. Doctor Doom has naturally enhanced intelligence as a power, but...Drew's not dumb, but I don't think he inherited that power the way I inherited my father's. At least, not yet.
"Masterminds and Lionhearts, FIGHT!" Thundra screams. She really does have a talent for screaming.
We spring into action, doing what Calico told us to do. I see Calico lashing out at Jace with her grappling hook, getting him in the legs, but Jace punches it out of her hand. I don't bother watching the rest, because I have work of my own to do.
I turn to Erity, who's charging me, staff in hand, spikes out.
I dodge easily, and I remember:
I have a machine gun.
BLAM BLAM BLAM BLAM BLAM DONE!
Now, I didn't actually murder her, the bullets in the machine gun are just shock rounds, which lightly shock your opponent. But if you get hit, then you're down, because in real battle you'd be dead.
Erity glares at me. "Outsiders. Always relying on technology." She goes to sit against the wall.
I turn around to see who I can help. It seems like I'm the only one who actually defeated my opponent. Calico and Jace are still sparring, and Drew's on the ground SLEEPING, for God's sake, while Clay is just sitting there poking him, probably wondering what to do.
And our "teachers" are so incompetent that they aren't even watching us.
My God.
So I decide to go to Clay and Drew. "Umm...Drew? You okay, buddy?"
No response.
I turn to Clay. "Clay, when did he...uh...fall asleep?"
Clay thinks. "Well, everything was going fine, and then I hit him in the knee, and he fell down, and as soon as he touched the ground...bam."
I shake my head. "Kid's a handful, what can I say?"
Clay snorts. "You're telling me. I don't want to wake him up, though...he seems so peaceful..."
"Yeah...how about you and me spar then? To be honest, I really don't see how this builds teamwork...we need lessons from someone actually sane, not..." I gesture at the Frightful Four. "Not them."
"Agreed. So...how about I deck you?"
I smile. "How about I shoot you?"
He punches, but I've trained with him before. I know his style. I dodge easily, and use my shield to knock him more off balance than he actually is. He crashes into the wall, and I rain ammo down to him.
Regular bullets wouldn't do anything to Carnage, but these weren't regular bullets. These were shock rounds, and Carnage does react to shock.
Carnage peels away, leaving a groaning 16 year old boy behind.
I stick out a hand to help him up, and he takes it.
"Nice one, Dylan," Clay says with smile. He then goes to sit with Erity.
I look to see that Jace has Calico out cold, and that leaves him and me.
Jace grins at me, his perfect white teeth showing. "I've always wanted some one on one time with you, Dylan." And with that, he swipes my feet out from under me.
I don't train with Jace that often, so I don't really know what to expect. I was definitely not expecting that. I scramble up to my feet, and aim at him.
However, Jace is too fast. I can't get a lock on him, and I don't want to waste my ammo, so I watch him dart around the room for a few moments, hoping he'll stay in one spot for a moment.
He doesn't. I block his strikes with my shield, unable to block and shoot at the same time.
Wait. He's in front of me. Perfect time to –
(We interrupt this POV since Dylan got knocked out. I'll just do some third person here...)
Dylan raised his gun, but he was too late. Jace's foot was headed right for the side of his head. Jace watched Dylan crumple to the ground, and then dragged him over to the wall where the others were.
Clay's eyes widened in shock. "Jace! What did you do to him?"
Jace brushed his honey blonde hair from his eyes and grinned. "I knocked him out. What else was I supposed to do? I'm unarmed, remember?"
Clay furrowed his eyebrows, his blue eyes filled with concern. "Yeah, well...umm...is he going to be okay?"
Jace waved his hand dismissively. "I knocked out my own sister. Do you really think I'd knock her out if I wasn't sure she would be okay? He's gonna be fine, give it an hour or so. No side effects except for a bruise and a headache."
Clay propped Dylan against the wall. "Okay...just checking. So...I guess we wo-" Clay was cut off by the crackling of electricity.
Jace turned, but he didn't turn fast enough. A bolt of heated electricity hit him square in the back.
Drew grinned behind him. "I believe we won, Clay."
Clay gaped in astonishment. "Wha-huh? I thought you were asleep!"
"Well, I was, but then I woke up. Power nap, y'know? And then I saw Jace, and no Dylan or Calico, so...I shot. I can't believe Jace got Dylan AND Calico, though..."
"Dylan got Erity and me. I was surprised when Jace knocked Dylan out, too. Though I guess that just goes to show never underestimate your enemies, though."
"True. So...we should probably get these guys – and girl – to the infirmary. I got Dyls. Clay, you get Jace, and Erity, you can get Calico."
Clay and Erity nodded in agreement. Erity, who had been listening, hoisted Calico on her shoulder and headed to the infirmary.
(And they went down there, blah blah blah. I don't think I need to describe people walking down a hallway.)
OWOWOWOWOWOW $#! THAT &^(%! & HURTS! * ^+ YOU JACE!
Ouch. He got me good. I blink groggily, and see an angel above me. Did Jace kill me?
Wait...why is an angel wearing a Fall Out Boy shirt...?
Oh...it's Clay. That makes more sense. Hey...people have mistaken Clay for an angel before. He's certainly good looking enough to play the part, with his shiny brown hair swept across his face and icy blue eyes. And clear face.
I envy him.
Seriously! A ton of girls have a crush on him, and he doesn't even know it! Hey, I'd give up my shield to have HALF of the girls that like him like me!
...but that's not happening.
"Dylan! Are you okay?" Clay leans over, his icy blue eyes now in my face. The thing is, Clay's so nice you can't dislike him. That annoys me too.
"Dude, get out of my face. And yeah, I'm fine. Just a headache." I reach up to my head. "And it feels like there's a bruise there. What happened?"
Clay leans back in his chair that he had been sitting in. "Well, you were going to shoot Jace, but he took the moment when you were aiming to kick you in the side of your head."
I swore.
"But Drew knocked out Jace for you. He just woke up and shot him. It was hilarious." Clay gestures to the honey-haired teen beside me in what must be the infirmary.
"Well, that makes me feel better. Hey...what time is it?"
Clay glances at his watch. "Hmm...like 3:10. You've missed most of your classes. Jace got you good."
"You were there that long?"
"Nah, I just checked in from time to time. This is one of those times."
"Well, I can't say I mind missing my class-wait, you said 3:10?"
Clay nodded.
"$#!^! I have to get to training! Sandy!"
"Sandy what now? Slow down, Dylan."
"Sandy! Marko! She's my training partner, remember?"
"Oh. Yeah. But you can't go to training now! You have to rest and stuff! You've had concussions before! You know how this works!"
"SANDY!" I jump out of the bed.
Clay shakes his head. "No. You stay here." He grabs my wrist.
I sigh loudly. "Yes, mom."
Clay grins. "Good."
I swear, Clay is like a mom sometimes.
"You know, you sound like you like her."
Oh God. "Like who?"
"Sandy. Do you?"
"No. I mean, I like her as a friend, but I don't like her like that. She's not really my type. I think she likes you."
Clay raises his eyebrows. "Me?"
"Yes, you, idiot! I know about ten girls who like you!"
"Me?" He repeats.
I facepalm. "YES! OWOWOW! I shouldn't have done that..."
"Why would they like me?"
"Because you're good looking and nice to everyone. Girls fall for people like that."
"Oh...umm...do you by any chance know who? Like, by name?"
I count on my fingers. "Well, I said Sandy, umm...Olivia, Erity, possibly Lightning, and other girls who aren't in our class that are obviously in love with you."
"They all like ME?"
"Yes..."
"Me?"
"OH MY GOD YES YOU MORON! How many times do I have to say it?"
"Me?" Clay repeats like a broken record.
"Never mind, I'm going back to sleep."
I shut my eyes, try to ignore the hopelessly confused boy sitting in front of me.
It works...until someone comes in the infirmary, slamming the door open. "CLAY!" They scream. I open my eyes and see Drew, breathing raggedly and his spiky brown hair even spikier than usual.
Clay turns to Drew. "What? What's happened?"
Drew's olive green eyes were filled with fear. "They found us."
I feel like I should know this, but my brain is still fuzzy... "May I ask who?"
He looked around wildly. "S.H.I.E.L.D!"
AHHHHH I want to write more! This was so fun to write! I hope you like all the E.V.I.L Academy kids as much as I do! If there's someone you want to know more about or want to hear from their point of view, someone other than Dylan, please leave a review saying so! I swear, this is the longest chapter of something I've ever written XD
Reviews feed the hungry update monster!
