Okay people... First Lyoko story EVAH! Be patient with me, eh?
I supposed I need a Disclaimer.
Disclaimer: I do not own Code Lyoko.
Good enough. Also. Use Eden without asking and I'll bite you.
-Eden POV-
"Here's your room number, schedule, and map. Your classes start in two days, on Monday. I hope you enjoy being a student here at Kadic." The principal finished. I smiled, successfully covering up the fact that I hadn't really been paying attention. I took the papers from his hand, and left the office.
Down the hall I went, looking at room numbers and glancing every now and then at the small map as I walked. Finding my room, I opened to door, and happily realized that I had the place to myself. I kicked off my shoes, dropped my duffel bag on the bed, and flumped down beside it. After a few minutes, I heaved myself up and unpacked, then checked my watch. Almost time for lunch. Nice timing.
Double-checking the route to the cafeteria on my map real quick, I pulled my blue tennis shoes back on, and checked my appearance in the mirror hanging on the wall. I then left the room, and headed for food.
-Ulrich POV-
I walked out of the lunch line, and headed towards the table where Odd, Jeremie, and Aelita were already seated. I took a seat, and glanced around the large room full of people as I ate.
"Hey Ulrich, where's Yumi?" Odd asked me, a mocking look in his eyes.
"Her parents had to go out, and took her and Hiroki with them." I replied, ignoring his teasing. I'd save my energy for hitting him later, when he deserved it more.
"Ah, I s- hey, who's that?" The other three of us looked up to see who Odd was talking about. I girl with auburn-colored hair pulled up into a ponytail had just entered the cafeteria. She wore a tight gray tank top, dark jeans, and gray-blue tennis shoes. By the way she walked and her slim, slightly muscular body, anyone could tell that she was into sports. She was pretty good looking, but I shrugged it off. I prefer Yumi.
"Some new girl, obviously." Jeremie stated. "Not like it's anything out of the ordinary. But then again, Odd isn't exactly the brightest being around here, is he?" Everyone laughed, even Odd. After a few seconds however, Odd went back to staring.
-Odd POV-
I watched the new girl go through the lunch line and sit alone at a table a few down from us. I shoveled the rest of my food into my mouth, then dumped my tray. I walked towards the table where the girl was seated, and took a seat across from her. She glanced up at me, then crossed her arms and rested them on the edge of the table.
"Can I help you?" Her voice was a bit cold, but I ignored it.
"Hi. I'm Odd." I said, and stuck my hand over the table. She looked me up and down for a second.
"That you are." I burst out laughing at her remark, and the girl regarded me as if I was from another planet.
"No, that's my name. It describes me good though."
"Well." I raised an eyebrow.
"Huh?"
"It describes you 'well'. Not good." She informed me. I shrugged my shoulders. Not like I would remember.
"That, too. What about you?" She looked up at me again, but this time our eyes met. I had to stop myself from gasping. Her eyes were a deep, slightly greenish blue, and the edges of the color were dark, almost black. I got caught in those eyes, almost losing myself as I stared at the hypnotic coloring.
"My name is Eden."
"Hey, isn't that a color?" She exhaled, and her expression said that she was doing everything she could not to smack herself on the forehead.
"Yeeahhhh. Saw my eyes, didn't you?" She said this with a slow nod, looking at me as if I were an idiot.
Oh, wait… heh.
-Eden POV-
"Well, it was nice meeting you Eden." I watched as the boy, Odd, got up and strolled away. Dressed all in purple from head to foot, with a giant spike for a hairdo, he certainly was a character. Odd indeed.
After lunch I went up to my room and laid down on my bed again. I must've fallen asleep, because I opened my eyes and found myself facedown in my pillow. With a yawn I managed to sit up, and look at the clock. I still had an hour until dinner, so I dug in my unpacked knapsack and brought out my book. I read for awhile, but ended up finishing the story sooner than I thought I would. I sat and daydreamed until it was time to go to dinner, images of elves, wizards, and fantastical creatures running through my head.
Once I had food, I sat at the same table I had earlier. After a few minutes, a girl with long, dark hair came up to me, followed by a couple of nerdy looking guys.
"What are you doing? This is our table." she snapped. With a slight smirk, I stood up, and found myself eye-to-eye with the girl.
"Eating, obviously. Your table, you say?" I paused, and sized her up for a second. "I don't think so." I took my seat again, and continued eating. She huffed, and sat down with a pout.
"Now, let's be civilized, shall we? I'm Eden."
"Who do you think you are, trying to take over my table! Huh!" She retorted. I sighed. So much for being nice. Then again, that's never really worked that well for me anyway.
"I already told you. My name is Eden. I'm a new student here. And I like sitting here, so I'm going to. You are?" I said this calmly. There's a time for having fun and making enemies. This, unfortunately, isn't it.
"My name's Sissi. My father is the principal here, so you had better be nice to me!" Her grumpy tone almost made me laugh. But just almost.
"Well, Sissi, I'll bet that you and I can get along just fine. As long as your name doesn't reflect your personality." I smiled sweetly at her, and she pretended to brush it off, but not before I managed to see the hate in her eyes.
Review please!
