Mornings normally went pretty slow in the Matsukata household.. even if your goat eats your school uniform.
Saoru groaned as she stepped into her room from the shower, groaning. "Yuki!" she exclaimed at the pygmy goat. The goat looked up at Saoru, bleated, and ran off. "Oh, what am I going to do?!" Saoru groaned yet again, sitting down on her bed. She stared at the scraps of uniform on her bed. She then remembered that she had ordered another uniform, only the skirt was the shorter version of the original, the one that Yuki had chewed up. Saoru dried off quickly, and put the uniform on. Said uniform consisted of a blouse, a tie, a skirt, and basically anything that you need to have a school uniform. Saoru tugged the skirt down, pouting at her reflection in the mirror. She whipped out her make-up palette, which was really mascara and eye liner. She turned her curling iron on and got to the task of doing her hair.
When finished, Saoru tied a big, black bow onto her head, coming from under the nape of her neck to her crown. She fixed her bangs, and then walked out of her room. Saoru yawned, grabbing a protein bar from the counter, and called out to her father.
"Bye Father!"
No reply.
He must still be sleeping, then.. figures.
Saoru started her 'perilous' journey to Funizuki academy. Lucky for her, she didn't have to take a bus. She hated buses.She didn't know why, but she did.
~~Time Skip!~~
At the academy, Saoru took her seat in one of the free chairs, that just so happened to be next to a girl with pink hair. She lightly tapped on Saoru's shoulder. "Excuse me?" she said quietly. Saoru looked to her, beige eyes scanning her up and down. "Mhm?" Saoru answered half-heartedly.
"Do you have a spare pencil I could borrow?" she asked sweetly, her mass of pink hair bouncing.
"Um.. I think so.. lemme check." Saoru said, reaching into her satchel to her left. She was greeted with a pair of blue eyes close to the floor, those that could only be paired with Muttsulini's. "Um.. hi.." she said awkwardly, before grabbing a pencil handing it over to the pink haired girl, who introduced herself immediately. "I'm Himeji." Pink Hair said, extending a hand. Saoru blinked, then met Himeji's hand with her own. "Saoru Matsukata..." she murmured.
Ironman stood up front, banging loudly on the podium. "Yes, hi, welcome back to Hell. This is the placement test. If you leave the room while the exam is still going on, you will receive a zero in score, and be placed into the lowest class. Got it?"
Chorus of yes's and no's.
"Get at it!" Ironman yelled, causing Saoru to jump. She focused on the paper in front of her. This first one looks easy.. square root of 327.. that must be.. close to 18. Next one. Name a landform. Canyon. What continent is Japan on? Japan is an island, but is considered a member of the Asian continent. Saoru's thoughts were interrupted by a light poke. "Hey, you.. do you know the answer to 7?" a voice asked.
Saoru twitched, irritated. "For one, random voice, this is a PLACEMENT EXAM. And two, you'd have to be stupid if you don't know the answer to 120 times 6." she fumed.
"Just asking, don't have to get butthurt about it." the voice mumbled. That was Saoru's last straw. She turned in her seat to see a slacker with red hair. "Alright, mister. You-"
"Matsukata!" Ironman yelled. "My office! Now!"
"B-but.. you said that we can't leave the room or else we forfeit our scores!" Saoru exclaimed.
"Too bad, sweetheart!" He said in a mocking tone.
Saoru sighed, clenching her fists as she gathered her stuff, and walked out of the room in a huff. Himeji waved. Slacker just chuckled. Akihisa flicked the back of his head. "Hey, Yuuji. Yuuji hey." he whispered forcefully. "What, Akihisa." Yuuji grumbled.
"Do you think we could win our way back to class A this year?"
"Doubtful. Matsukata sounded like she had potential." Yuuji said coolly, laying back in his chair with his feet on his desk. His arms were crossed, and eyes were closed.
Saoru placed angrily outside the office. "I hate this school!" she grumbled, sitting down in a fit.
