"I don't want to go back!" Serena complained as they walked to school.
"Well look at it this way Serena…" Lita told Serena patting her shoulder "… this is our last year in highschool. Right Amy?"
But Amy was too busy reading her book to know what her friends were talking about. "What?" she asked looking from her book, causing her friends to sigh as they dropped their heads.
Hearing the ringing of bells in the distance they took off not wanting to be late for their first day.
Sitting down they quickly noticed someone who wasn't in their class last year. He was in uniform, but unlike everyone else he defied the rules by wearing a hat, covering his hair and hid his eyes. Whispers surrounded him, but he didn't seem to care as he pulled out a book and began to read.
As the bell rang, their teacher entered, calling off attendance when she saw him. "Delmar…" her voice spoke a silent warning.
"Yes teacher?" he asked, ignoring the warning.
Holding out her hand she ordered him "Your hat Delmar."
"… yes ma'am…" he answered grasping the rim of his hat that hid his eyes.
Lifting it from his head, white locks fell from it's confinement. Causing it to land in a way that made people gasp. His spiky white locks parted to show his face but still block the wind, his rest of his hair was tied back into a flowing white trail. Handing the hat over to the teacher his eyes opened to reveal irritation in his ice colored orbs.
"Thank you Delmar, you can pick this up after school." she told him placing his hat onto her desk while she picked up a pile of papers, just to stop. "Class this is Delmar, he has transferred here from an all-boy school in the mountains." she quickly introduced to them. Handing out the papers she started again "Well class, to see what you know you're going to fill this out to the best of your ability…" handing them out the class could see it was a five page, back and front, test.
A groan came from the class causing everyone to forget about Delmar and his unusual hair and eyes. The minutes ticked by as everyone slaved over the papers. After half an hour two hands shot up in the air at the same exact time causing the teacher to jump back in surprise.
"Yes?" she asked them both.
"I'm done." they told her at the same exact time. Distracted from their tests everyone stared at the new guy, like he was an alien as the teacher collected his test.
While he waited for everyone else to finish he once again pulled out his book and continued his read. Amy on the other hand took a new interest of this new boy. Through the corner of her eye she watched as he flipped from page to page, his eyes following the characters. He in himself seemed to have no interest in her as the class rolled on.
Suddenly the bell rang calling Amy from her day dream, "What do you think about him Amy?" a voice asked. Blinking she found her group of friends around her.
"I'm not sure…" she answered shyly as she looked for her book in her bag.
"I'm going to talk to him." Mina told her with a wink, turning she walked with determination towards Delmar.
"Your name's Delmar? Right?" she asked standing infront of him.
"Yes, my name is Delmar." he told her looking up at her confused, he had a slight accent but it just added to his charm.
"I know we just met but… would you like to go on a date, Delmar?" Mina asked sweetly.
He just looked at Mina confused muttering "Date…?" as he seemed to try to figure out what she meant. His eyes flashed once he realized what she wanted to do with him. "I'm sorry but I'm still getting things set up in my apartment." he apologized and turned back to his book.
Before she could continue to talk to him the teacher returned sending everyone running to their seats. Everyone soon found that he was equally skilled in the rest of their classes. And that he seemed to have no interest in his classmates… that is until he saw Amy playing chess against Lita, who lost hopelessly.
Walking over he sat opposite of Amy "May I have this game?"
Everyone stared at him in shock as the two of them set up the pieces. Within minutes the tide had switched over 5 times and currently in Amy's favor. "You're good. But we're keeping the class up… I'd better end it." smirking he moved his Rook into position taking her bishop "Check mate."
"Eh?!" the class gasped in shock as he had beat Japan's top chess player. Amy's bangs hid her eyes as he left for his seat.
"Amy… are you okay?" Serena asked gently kneeling beside her friend, suddenly she could hear a low chuckle from her.
"Finally, an equal rival!" a glint appeared in her eyes as she ran through the game again in her mind. Her eyes opened wider when she realized one important fact she had fallen into all of his traps… and that he let her think she was winning the entire time. As soon as the bell rang she rushed out, quickly followed by her friends, heading for the chess building.
Entering she played the hardest levels on their computer until she could beat them with ease, and still continued on designing harder levels. "Amy you're getting obsessed…" her friends told her over and over, but it still didn't get into her head.
Meanwhile with Delmar it was almost a completely different story. Lounging he relaxed thinking about that classmate… Amy… "...maybe... just maybe..."
"Why are we here again Delmar?" a voice asked him exhausted.
"We need to ask for the Sailors here for their help." He answered looked towards the voice's owner.
"We don't need their help…"
Delmar just looked at the owner his eyes glaring white, causing the conversation to drop.
Warning: Scanners detecting organic matter approaching planet! A computer beeped from across the room. Leaping from his seat he made his way over.
"Analyze…" he told it and began to read the data. Eyes widening he whispered "No! They followed us!" Moving to a chest he began to dig through until he found what he was looking for; a sword sharpened to perfection, it's blade gleaming dangerously in the light.
Attaching them to his body he made his way to the door.
"Don't!" the voice exclaimed "You're all our people have of hope!"
"And the people here are too primitive to know what's going to hit them!" he answered angrily leaping into the night.
Miles away something fell from the sky crashing into a nearby building. Five figures ran to the scene to investigate.
"Looks like an asteroid to me." Mars reported, her black hair drifting in the salty air.
"Eeew!" Venus shrieked, stepping away. A green sludge was starting to ooze from the space rock and take form. A knife snag through the air as it flew; cutting off the green slime causing it to stop. However the stuff that already had escaped grouped together to form a giant blob.
A young man lept from a nearby rooftop to land in front of them; he wore alienish clothes that fit to his figure, the revealed skin was a pale and his hair was snow white. "I can't believe that you followed me here." he whispered, leaping into the air he aimed a swift kick at the thing just for it to grasp a hold of his leg. "Taste some of this, Tsuward breath!" he snarled placing something onto his fist, lashing out.
As it made contact an electrical current shot from it stunning the blob. "NOW!" he bellowed at them. Combining their attacks they destroyed it sending splatters everywhere.
Cheering they realized that he had completely disappeared from sight.
"Where did he go?" Venus asked looking around. Unknown to them the boy watched from the shadows. 'So this is the Sailor Scouts…' he thought to himself as he watched them retreat.
Walking away he returned to his temporary base entering he walked right into the shower.
Washing himself he spread a gel over his lean skin as he tried to clear the gunk off. "Sailor... scouts..." he wasn't sure anymore that they would be able to help but he kept that to himself. Not wanting his companion to hear him.
