The new kid

Professor Jericho swain stands at the front of the class next to a girl with strange white hair.

"Students! Please welcome transfer student, Riven." Riven waves and the class responds with a low chorus of hi's. "It is always hard to be new student, please assist if able." Swain gestures to an open seat by a red haired girl in the back, "Please take seat Riven."

Riven hurriedly moves to take her chair, and sits down awkwardly in the back corner. She fumbles around in her backpack looking panicked.

"Forget something?"

Riven looks up to see a red haired girl wearing a white shirt with an open black hoodie and black baseball cap. "Oh um, yeah I think I left my note book at home, dumb for my first day huh?"

"Nah, happens to me all the time. Names Sarah by the way." Sarah pulls rips a page from her notebook and hands it to Riven. "Need a pencil?"

Riven holds up her own, "Thankfully I didn't forget everything." She turns forward to take notes as Swain drones on about matrices Riven, having already learned this in her previous school; it's not long before Riven begins doodling.

Sarah leans over and inspects Riven's sword sketches "Bored to death too?"

"Hih?" Riven looks up surprised completely lost in her own thoughts. "Oh yeah, at my old school we we're a chapter ahead so this is just boring.."

Sara's eyes roll, "When is math ever not boring?" They both share a giggle.

"Something is funny girls?" Riven and Sarah both look up in horror to see Swain standing just a few feet ahead, the entire class's eyes on them. "As this I Riven's first day, I will give only warning. There is to be no laughing in my class. Understood?" Riven slowly slides her doodle filled page out of view as she nods. He turns to Sarah, "Lucky for you I have no time to hold detention today so instead you will be responsible for showing Riven the school, and making sure that she is on time for all classes today. Any problems?"

Sara nods enthusiastically, "Yes sir, Mr. Swain."

"Good." Swain glares at the duo for another few seconds before the bell rings. "Class dismissed."

Riven barely has time to grab her bag as Sarah pulls her out the class. "Man I hate that guy, Swain is no fun. Here let me see your schedule."

Riven reaches in her bag and pulls out the only real paper in there. Felling bad about Making Sara spend the day with "I'm sorry about getting you in trouble, you don't actually have to show me around I'll be fine."

Sarah just grabs the schedule from Riven's hand; "Nonsense even if birdbrain in there didn't tell me to I'd still have no problem helping you out. Now let's see, oh great you have PE with me. Did you remember gym clothes?" Riven checks her bag once more nodding. "Great, then let's go!"

"Um is her for real?" Says Riven as she stares at their teacher.

"Yeah." Sara and Riven are both standing on the track as their teacher waits for everyone to come out of the locker room. "Mr. Zed is a weirdo. I don't get how he can wear all that in like seventy five degree weather." Oddly Zed was wearing full sweats with a scarf and his hood up. If one looked closely you would be lucky to see his eyes. "While were here let's introduce you to some of my friends." A skinny blond kid a little taller than Riven starts walking towards them from the locker room direction. "Ah here's one now."

He smiles brightly in Riven and Sara's direction and jogs over to them. "Hey M.F. Sara fist bumps him. As if suddenly noticing Riven he holds a hand out. "You're the new girl right? Riven? I'm Ezreal although everyone calls me Ez."

They shake hands, "Nice to meet you." His gym clothes look a little different than the standard gear. "Your uniform is different."

"Oh this." Riven is forced to squint as Ez unleashes the most brilliant smile possible. "You just so happen to be looking at the captain of the soccer team." He proclaims this with both hands on his hips proudly.

He falls on his ass as Sarah shoves him. "Ignore Ez, he can be a little conceited."

"Concieted? Did you see my true shot barrage! I almost single handedly won that last game!"

"Is that so?" Suddenly Ezreal is in the arms of a huge blond kid wearing a similar jersey. "Sorry about my captain here he can be a bit much." He smiles at Riven sheepishly.

Sara just claps him on the back, "Nah, Ez is great . He just needs to keep his ego under control. Let me intro duce you to my new pal Riven, today's her first day." She gestures to Riven. "Riven this is Blitz, probably the best goalie in Valoran!"

Blitz blushes and sets Ezreal down. "Well I wouldn't say that."

"Nonsense!" Ez loudly interjects, "You're like half the reason we won last time man obviously the other half was all-"

Ezreal is suddenly cut off as Zed blows his whistle. "Students, as the wind blows so must we. Today we shall run with breeze and fade into shadow, only on the fourth rise rest is allowed."

What the hell? Riven looks around to see if anyone else seems confused. Luckily Sarah notices and takes pity on the confused student. "You'll have to get used to that, he always talks like that. He wants us to run four laps and then we're done for today."

How the hell did she get that from what he said? Either way Riven walks with Sarah and the others to the starting position. It's hard not to notice two peculiar students in the front. Riven is in the back so it's hard to see their faces but the first is a short kid wearing an all purple set of sweats, and the second is a taller boy with bright green shoes. Both are in serious running stances while the rest of the class stands casually waiting for Zed to blow the starting whistle. "What's with those guys why are they so serious?"

Ezreal speaks from behind her, "Oh there both on the track team. Both of them are trying to take the number one spot in the four hundred meter. The one on the left in the purple is Kennen, and the other one is Hecarim."

"Which one is number one?"

"Neither." Blitz stretches while standing with them. "Kennen and Hecarim, switch between third and second like every week but neither of them can beat Yi's times."

The whistle blows and I stay pace with Sarah and Ez, surprisingly Blitz charges ahead of us moving way faster than I would Expect for someone of his size. We're only halfway through the first lap, when I feel a rush of air as Kennen laps us. "What the?" another gust and I see Hecarim's bright shoes speeding off. "God they're fast! Just what kind of monster is this Yi guy?"

Sarah just laughs. "You have no idea."

I hand Sarah my schedule as we step out the locker room back into the hallway. "Let's see, damn we don't have the next class together. Wait a sec you're in biology? Sophomores normally take chemistry and juniors take biology."

I just shrug, "Oh really? It was the opposite at my last school. Guess the counselor figured it was easier for me to finish bio instead of starting over in chemistry."

"Hmm." Sarah goes back to looking at my schedule. "Well at least your teacher is cool. Ms. Zyra used to teach at the middle school. My class is in the other direction but to find yours go up the stairs over there and to the right. Should be right by the bathroom."

Sarah waves as they both go there separate ways. Riven ends up walking in the classroom just as the bell rings. A woman wearing a deep green dress with silky red hair sits behind the teacher's desk. She looks up as Riven walks over and places her schedule on the desk. "Oh, a transfer student?" She smiles and extends a hand. " Welcome to our school I'm Ms. Zyra." Finally happy to have a normal teacher Riven smiles back and shakes her hand. "Cassiopia, can you raise your hand?" A girl sitting alone at a lab table in the left middle of the room raises her hand. "Why don't you sit with her for today."

Nodding Riven takes her schedule and starts walking towards her seat. Halfway down the aisle Riven trips, thanks to quick reflexes she manages to catch herself before she could fall. Glaring she looks up at the student who tripped her. Laughing in the seat in font of Cassiopia is a large muscular boy with slicked back brown hair. Taking a calming breath Riven repeats the mantra that she came to school today repeating. 'No more fights, no more fights.' The boy snickers at her, "Lose your balance new kid?"

Riven keeps walking, and sits down at her seat. The girl identified as Cassiopia smiles at Riven. "Don't worry about Renekton, everyone knows he's an ass." Seeing Cassiopia up close Riven can only think of how odd she looks sitting in a high school. She has short brown hair, and a verdant green dress flowing all the way down to her ankles. Not to mention the ton of jewelry that she's decked in it's not hard to tell that she comes from money. She looks like she's dressed up for prom. "I'm Cassiopia by the way, you can just call me Cass."

Despite her odd appearance Riven wasn't one to judge by appearances. "Nice to meet you, I'm Riven. Today's my first day here."

Cass just rests her chin on her hands and looks at Riven curiously, "Oh I know. Trust me sweetie I know everything that goes on in this school. So what's the scoop with you and M.F. people say you looked pretty close during first period today. You know her?"

M.F.? Now that she mentions it didn't Ezreal call Sarah something like that? "You mean Sarah?"

Cass rolls her eyes. "You didn't even know her nickname, guess you aren't as close as I was led to believe. Never mind, I guess I was too hopeful to think that there would be any drama around you on your first day." She sighs before smiling at me, "But I have a good feeling about you, I think that we're going to get along jussssssst fine."

Riven can't help the involuntary shiver as Cass looks at her with a mildly creepy expression.

When the bell rings for lunch and Riven is the first person out of the room. The teacher may have been normal but the glares from Renekton, and the creepy looks from Cassiopia easily made this her worst class so far. Luckily not long after wandering into the cafeteria she spots familiar red hair underneath a black hat. Sarah looks up as Riven takes the seat beside her. "Oh there you are, how was your last class?"

Riven can't help but shiver again thinking of her biology experience. "I-I don't want to talk about it." Reaching in her bag Riven takes out the sandwich she made before school. Trying to get Cass's gaze out of her head.

Sarah chuckles as Ez and sits down next to Riven wearing a brown t shirt and blue jeans with Blitz taking the seat across from him dressed in a yellow t shirt with light brown shorts. Ez raises an eyebrow upon sitting down. "M.F. what did you do to her Riven looks totally freaked."

There's that M.F. nickname again reminding me that I still don't know much about the person whose probably my best friend here. "I didn't do anything, apparently her last class sucked, she had bio with Zyra."

Ezreal's face lights up, "Wait third period Zyra? My bro Jayce is in that class! Did you see him?"

Jayce? I don't remember seeing a Jayce. "No just some dick named Renekton and a creeper named Cassio-something."

Riven turns to her right as Sarah bursts into laughter, "Wait a second, did you just call Cassiopia Du Chateau a creeper!" Ezreal and Blitz are also laughing. Riven just looks annoyed as Sarah finally calms down. "O-Okay. That was funny but seriously don't say that again. Cassiopia like rules this school and her family is like crazy powerful."

Riven just shrugs and takes another bite of her sandwich, "Doesn't make her less creepy."

"Jeez what's this one's problem?" Riven looks up from her food to see a girl now sitting across from Sarah.

"Ah don't worry about her." Sarah gestures to Riven, "This is Riven." She points to the blue haired girl across from her. "Riven this is Jinx." In one word jinx could best be described as odd. Super pale skin, bright blue hair worn in two long braids, and pale pink eyes to match; she's wearing a black t-shirt with short pink shorts.

Jinx leans back in her chair and props her feet up on the table. "Just great another new kid, hello or whatever." That was rude, regardless Riven is about to answer back when Jinx interrupts her again opening and closing her lunch box like it's talking, "You know Jinx it's not polite to talk to people like that." What the hell? Jinx slams the lunch box on the table. "Ugh you're the worst lunchbox ever!"

Sarah, leans over to whisper to Riven. "I know it's weird but don't say anything." Sarah sits back up in her chair, "Jinx here is the undisputed prank king of the school."

Jinx cracks the widest grin ever, "You're damn right I am!"

She leans over to Riven's ear, "Which is the only reason you need to not piss her off."

Riven nods, "got it. Is this everyone?"

"Not quite." Blitz speaks in between his sips of some strange black liquid. I'd like to believe it's coke but for some reason I can smell oil. "There's a girl named Lulu that usually hangs out with us, but she just disappears every now and then, sometimes for days at a time. If you see a girl with like a ridiculous hat it's probably her."

Riven looks at Ezreal questioningly, "What does he mean by ridiculous?"

He just chuckles, "You'll know when you see it."

Before she can ask him to elaborate the bell sounds signaling the end of lunch. Riven hands Sarah her schedule. "Let's see, next you have History with Azir."

Ezreal looks surprised. "Oh cool you're in my class. C'mon let's go."

Turns out that the class is on the other end of school so Ezreal leads Riven as they walk quickly towards their destination. "So what's Mr. Azir like?"

Ezreal smiles, "Oh he's like a really good teacher. The way he talks about some of this stuff it's like he was there."

That might be interesting, "Oh that sounds pretty cool. How are th-" While looking at Ezreal riven failed to see a girl walking in the other direction and the two collide and fall on the ground.

"OW, what the fuck is wrong with you?"

"Sorry" Riven rubs her head as she looks at the other girl on the ground. With bright red hair past her shoulders she's wearing a black leather jacket with matching pants.

The girl glares at Riven as she picks herself up. "What the fuck is wrong with you?"

Riven uses the rubs her head again, that might be a bruise. "I said I'm sorry. You obviously weren't paying attention either."

Ezreal helps Riven to her feet, "C'mon let's just go."

Riven makes a couple of steps before she feel a hand on her arm. "Where the fuck do you think you're going?"

It's that same girl! "Look I said I'm sorry, this doesn't need to be a big thing, just let me go to class."

The look on her face doesn't make that seem likely. "Bitch do you know who I am?"

'No more fights, No more fights'

Right now Riven is just breathing trying to calm down from how pissed she is. Ezreal stands in between the two, "Listen Katarina can't you just let this one go? It's her first day okay, it wont happen again."

Katarina reaches in her pocket and levels a nasty glare at Ezreal. "Why don't you fuck off fairy. Before you get hurt." Ezreal takes a step back obviously scared. "Riven let's just go." By now there's a circle of students around the commotion.

'No more fights, No more fights'

"Shut your fucking mouth bitch!" She slaps Ezreal and he falls to the ground. "Let the whore talk for herself-"

Katarina is cut off by Riven's fist smashing into her face. "Don't you dare touch my friends bitch!"

Katarina looks up surprised. Wiping the blood from her mouth. "You want to play rough bitch?" She pulls a butterfly knife out of her pocket and makes a show of twirling it around as she opens it. "Let's fucking play!"

Riven punches at Katarina's face again only for her target to duck, Riven jumps back to avoid a knife aimed at her stomach. Katarina swings at her face and Riven is just a little too slow to react earning her a thin line of red across her cheek. Katarina stabs at Riven's face, but expecting it Riven moves her head to the side and grabs Katarina's knife arm, using her other fist to deliver a harsh blow to the leather clad girl's stomach. Katarina struggles to get out of the stronger girls grip futilely and Riven continues to punch her over and over again until Katarina falls to her knees. Dropping the knife.

Riven wipes the blood coming from her cheek and looks around for the first time noticing the crowd gathered around her. They all look shocked, some even with their hands covering their mouths. 'God damn it I did it again.' Ezreal puts a hand on Riven's shoulder, "Riven.." She shrugs him off and pushes her way through the crowd. "Riven wait!" Without looking back Riven walks/jogs all the way to the exit of the school. Ezreal calls out to her as she puts her hand on the exit door. "Riven.."

"Save it. I already know that I'm a fuck up okay?"

"Wait you don't have to go!" She just shakes her head.

Riven pushes open the door and as she walks out Ezreal is able to see the tears in her red eyes.
