Chapter One: Sadness and Introductions
"Do I really have to go to this, this boarding school?" Jeremy asked his parents in the front of the car.
"Of course you do," said his father, rather blandly. "Your mother and I are going to America on a business trip for a few years."
"Don't worry, Jeremy, dear. You'll make new friends. You're a very likable boy," his mother added, just as blandly.
But making friends wasn't what Jeremy was worried about. He had never made any friends in his twelve years of life. He was always labeled the outcast, a computer geek. For Jeremy did like computers. He liked learning things, too, and would have liked school if he hadn't always been picked on. But computers were the best, for they held infinite knowledge, if you had the will to seek for it. No, Jeremy was afraid of quite another thing. People. This school was going to have twice as many people in it. And he was going to be forced to be in contact with them at all times.
At least I have my laptop, he thought, brightening just a bit.
"See? It won't be so bad. Just keep a stiff upper lip," his father said, wrongly guessing what he was thinking. Jeremy sighed and ran his fingers through his short, blonde hair, then adjusting his glasses. He wore a plain blue turtleneck and pair of jeans. On his knees was his laptop, at his side a knap sack full of extra clothes, computer gear, and various computer manuals.
The car slid to a stop in front of a large building.
"Well, here you go, Jeremy," his father said.
"Goodbye, sweetie, see you soon!" Jeremy's mother said giddily, waving. Then, the car sped off down the road, until it was lost to Jeremy's line of vision. He sighed and turned to the school, looming above him. He had half hoped his parents would have left, then come back immediately and tell him it had all been a joke and he was going back home.
Might as well get this over with, He thought to himself and approached the school.
Odd walked up to his room. He was at boarding school, again. Last year he'd been alone, thankfully, but Jim, the P.E. teacher, told him that he'd have a roommate.
Odd's nickname fit him pretty well. He wore a purple long-sleeve shirt with pants that were half black and half purple. His blonde hair was one big spike on top of his head with a big purple blotch in the middle. His full name was actually Oswald, which he hated, but everyone had called him Odd for as long as he could remember.
He opened the door to his room, to find his roommate already there. His short hair was brown, his face seemed set in an almost permanent scowl. He wore a dark green shirt and black jeans. Odd remembered seeing him a couple times with a Japanese girl with black hair and a matching black outfit who was a year older then they were.
"I'm Ulrich," The boy said, sticking out his hand to shake.
"The name's Odd. Nice to meetcha!" Ulrich seemed taken back for a second by Odd's joyfulness, then grinned.
"Want me to help you unpack? I'm already finished."
Yumi, Ulrich's "friend", walked down the hall, looking for Ulrich's room. She had been overjoyed when he had called her and told her his new room number, towards the end of the summer. She had thought he'd forgotten about her. Yumi went to the school, but wasn't a boarder. Her parents lived close enough to the school that she could walk to it each day, while Ulrich's parents lived out of town. He had gone home for the summer, and Yumi's worst fear was that he had found someone he liked more than her. She wasn't worried about that anymore, though. Until she heard two voices in the room, one Ulrich's.
She knocked and let herself in.
"Hi Yumi. This is Odd, my roommate." The boy with blonde hair with purple blotch grinned evilly at them.
"Ulrich, is this your girlfriend??"
"No!" Both Ulrich and Yumi said at once, blushing.
"I was just joking, jeese."
Dragon-Grrrrl: That was chapter one! Yaay!! And some things with Jeremy's parents may be different from the show, but I DON'T CARE!!!!!
Yusuke: Well, if you asked me-
Dragon-Grrrrl: Which I didn't.
Yusuke:- Jeremy's a bit OOC.
Dragon-Grrrrl: Really. DUH!!! It's the beginning of everything, and he's never had friends before now. Of course he's different. I fancy him as a softer Artemis Fowl, at the moment. A cold genius.
Yusuke: You're screwy.
Dragon-Grrrrl: GG
Yusuke: Toldja. Why aren't I in it?
Dragon-Grrrrl: I dunno. You might be, then get erased from their minds... Maybe you could help them get through their first X.A.N.A attack... Ulrich and Yumi are reluctant to voice their opinions to each other just yet... And Odd being short for Oswald I made up. I just couldn't quite believe his full name was Odd, so I made it short for something. Seeya next chappie!
(Note: Why Yusuke knows what Jeremy's personality is like I wouldn't know. And, unlike TED, this IS NOT prewritten! I NEED IDEAS!!!)
