~x1x~ I'm More Than Just A Face

"Wait, WHAT?!" The class said collectively, in a shocked, but excited, voice.

"I said, there will be a new transfer student coming in today."

"Who are they?"

"What are they like?"

"Where are they from?"

"When did they get here?"

"Why are they coming here now?"

"Are they a boy or a girl?"

While the students assaulted Koro Sensei with questions he tried to calm them down, but the last one caught him a little off guard.

"Now now, students, I think I'll let them answer your questions." After he said that, he moved over to the door and opened it, revealing a tall figure with a completely different uniform from the rest of the students', it being black and red with some white highlights, and his hair was two different colors, red and black split down the middle, and the black part was cover their right eye. He was wearing a calm smile, looking nonchalant, and stood in a stance that made it look like they were almost excited to be here. "Now students, please welcome with open arms, Ace White."

-Ace-

When the door opened, I stood there with a grin on my face and my hands in my pockets. Mast-Koro motioned for me to come into the room, and I complied. Gosh, it's going to be hard calling him Koro instead of what I should be referring to him as. When I first transferred to this school, I was actually worried that Koro would be different from when I knew him. I actually worked at the lab he was from and I liked him almost as much as She did. What was her name… Oh, whatever. My head came back to reality, and I walked to the center of the front of the class.

"So, Ace, could you please introduce yourself before we start class."

I nodded and opened my mouth, only to close it and walk to the chalkboard behind me and write something down in my best handwriting.

'Does anyone have any questions? Please give me your name first'

Some of the students looked at me with confused looks, but proceeded to raise their hands one by one. I picked the one with green hair that seemed to be jumping out of her seat.

"My name is Kaede Kayano, and I want to know where you came from."

I thought to myself when she said that. Kayano, huh. I'll have to ask her about that later.

"Well," I started in a very soothing british voice. "I'm actually from the UK. And, before any of you ask, I'm in E-Class because I wanted to be, not because my grades are bad. So, any more questions?"

Most of the girls were caught off guard by how my voice sounded and Koro had to jostle a few of them to get their attention back. When the hands went back up, I picked one kid all the way in the back with red hair, and he stood up.

"Karma, why are you here, exactly? You're not here for the money, are you?" The last part he said in a maniacal voice.

I chuckled to myself. "Well, that's not exactly why I came here. I can't really tell you anything about it, but I can say that it wasn't for me to kill him. If I honestly wanted to, I could do it right now. And keep all of the students safe, don't worry Sensei, I'm not as heartless as most of the hired killers who have tried to kill you."

I could tell that Sensei almost seemed to tense up after my statement at the end there. But all I heard was a laugh from the entire class. I looked at them with a slightly confused look, and one of the other students spoke up.

"Ryoma here. I don't know if you know this or not, but we've all tried killing this guy at the same time with an amazing plan and tactics, but the closest we've gotten to killing him was him in his indestructible form. And, not to diss you, but I don't think you can even get any of his tentacles off without out help."

I put on a terrifyingly maniacal grin. "Oh, is that a challenge?"

"If you want, I can help you." Karma spoke up. "I'm the only one here that's managed to get any of his tentacles off by myself and-"

"Oh, I won't need your help. But, thank you, Karma. Now, how many tentacles did you manage to get off of him at the same time, and how long did it take?"

"Um, two in twelve seconds. What, you think you can beat that? I bet you can't even get one in double that time."

"Well, let's bet on it then. I come from a family that does a lot of gambling, and I mean a LOT. So, who's in? I'll even throw in an extra hundred for the winning pile."

As soon as I said that, the entire class rose their hands. "Okay, okay. Put all of the money you're betting on me on Ma-Koro's desk, and put the rest of it on your desk in the front left. What's your name?"

"I'm Yukiko."

"Okay, put it on Yukiko's desk if you're betting against me."

Once I was done speaking, everyone put their money on her desk. Well, almost everyone. One kid with blue hair got up and walked their money over to Koro's desk. I looked at them with a questioned look.

"And you might be…"

"Nagisa. It's nice to meet you."

"And you too. Any reason you're betting on me?"

"Eh, I believe in you."

"Well, thank you."

I motioned for him to go back to his seat and I focused my attention back to the task at hand. "So, just to make this more interesting, I'm going to… Koro, please leave the room. Preferably in another country. Try Hawaii, I hear it's nice this time of year. Come back in about 5 minutes."

"Wait, you want me to leave? Why?"

"Then you'd hear how this is going to go down. Just go and pick me up something while you're there. I don't care what it is, I'll pay you back. Now, if you could."

I gestures to the open window in the side of the class and he seemed to go along with it. He seemed hesitant at first, but he left. Only to say right before he left, "Five minutes exactly. No more, no less."

I nodded and, with mach 9 speed, he flew off into the sky.

"Now, just to make this even more interesting, I bet that I can take out double the tentacles you said in half the time. So, Ritsu, set a timer for six seconds, and start it when I get up next after Koro starts class. If I scratch my head before I get up, I'm not actually going to kill him. So, look out for that. Got that Ritsu?"

Through her screen, she nodded in confirmation knowing what was going to happen.

"Now, we have a few extra minutes, anyone have any questions or something to say before Koro comes back?"

I only saw one hand go up, and it was Nagisa's. "Earlier, you kind of slipped up on Sensei's name. Any reason why?"

"Well, that might just have to be something I keep to myself. For now, of course. I'll probably let it slip once or something. But, if I don't, I'll tell you all when the time is right. Any more questions?"

Right as I finished my sentence, Koro flew in through the window and everyone looked over to him. "Well, Ace, I got you some sushi they were selling there. Anything I should know before I start class? The whole thing was ¥1400, by the way."

As he asked that, he handed me the plate of sushi and I nodded to him in acknowledgement and I responded. "No, not at all. Feel free to start class when you want. Pretend I've been here all year."

He simply nodded and everyone went back to their seats and started to get their textbooks out for their first class.

As we all got out books out, another teacher ran through the door sweating. Koro spoke up first. "Mr. Karasuma, what brings you here at this time? Your classes aren't for another few hours."

"Well, there's been an announcement for a school assembly in 15. Everyone, show Ace the drill."

"Yes, Karasuma." The class said collectively.

"So, what's going on is that the upper campus doesn't like us very much, so they tend to not tell us stuff until the very last minute. If any of them give you trouble up there, just call."

I nodded at Karma, bet knew that I wouldn't need him. "So, I just have to follow all of you the the upper campus, right?"

"Yes, but it's pretty grueling. We'll try to wait up for you."

"Oh, you won't have to do that for me Nagisa. You'll find out that I can handle myself when it comes to these kinds of things. So, please, take the lead everyone."

Everyone just nodded to each other and ran through the door and open windows.

We all ran passed one another, soon turning it into a race to get to the school first. I stayed close to the back, but didn't put myself in last place.

"Come on, if you're talking a big game, you gotta know how to run fast."

"I know, Nagisa. I'm just giving everyone a chance. What, do you want me to dust everyone?"

"Well, you can try. It's not like you can do it anyway."

"We'll see about that, Karma."

And with that, I ran.

I ran so quickly, I caught up with Karasuma, all the way in the front, and ended up passing him too. By the time I got to the school entrance, when I looked back, I couldn't see anyone. So, I got a soda and waited for someone to catch up, most likely Karasuma.

When he did manage to get to the school, I was on a bench with my legs crossed and a soda visibly held in my hands, making it look like I've been waiting for awhile.

He was about to say something, but he failed to realize that I already moved from my previous spot, and right up behind him.

"Too fast?"

He jumped back and put his hand behind his back, ready to pull out a knife if he needed to, but when he realized it was only me, he removed his hand from his back.

"Where, and how, did you learn to run that quickly? And you don't even look out of breathe."

"Well, I'd love to tell you, but then I'd have to bring you in, fill out paperwork, find an execution room, it's just too much work." I kind of trailed off towards the end there, speeding up in the process, and when I was done, Karasuma just rolled his eyes at me in an annoyed manner and awaited the rest of the kids.

Eventually, all the students made it to the top. Since I took such a huge lead, everyone tried even harder to run quickly, but that just resulted in a bunch of panting teens. Except for a few though, Nagisa and Karma imparticular. They came a little behind everyone else and where in pretty good shape.

And, since everyone was quick about it, we all had an extra 10 minutes to talk and stuff.

"Wow, I didn't think you could run that fast. How is your stamina so high?"

"Well, it just takes some practice to get up, Nagisa."

"I knew that, I just wanted to know why you-"

"Guys, can't you stop your idle chit-chat? We've got a school assembly to get to."

"Right, sorry Mr. Karasuma." We both said in sync. We entered the building and headed to the gymnasium.

When we got to the gymnasium, I saw where the E-Class was standing and I went over there. There was one spot left open, which I assumed was mine, so I slipped in without anyone from the other classes noticing. And then, the assembly started.

"Hello everyone, and sorry for such an immediate meeting after the previous one. I just wanted to call this assembly because of a few announcements for the upcoming months. There will be handouts passed around to take home about the events and some other stuff."

"Um, excuse me," One of the students from the E-Class section said Don't know his name yet, should have everyone introduce themselves to me later. "We didn't get a copy of the handouts."

"Oh, it looks like we didn't make enough for everyone. You'd think we could learn from the mistake last time, but I guess not. Guess you'll just have to copy off of one of your neighbors, you probably need it anyways."

All of the kids in the gymnasium laughed, everyone except the kids in the E-Class. Only then, did a loud sound come from the back of the gym, with papers falling from above the E-Class.

"Uh, nevermind. We got them, my mistake."

"Wait, what? Who's the funny-man who killed out fun, again? Uh, I mean, good. Let's just get on with the assembly."

"Um," I asked the guy in front of me, "Is this normal?"

"Sadly, yes. Itona, by the way."

"Thank you, Itona, for the insight."

"Yeah, that's just how things are around here."

[One informationally, long assembly later... ]

All of the classes filtered out through the gym, starting with A-Class, then B, then C, you get the gist. When our class left, they made their way back to the E-Class building, except for Bitch sensei, Karasuma, and me.

"I'll catch up with everyone else. I'm just going to get a drink before I leave."

"Okay, see you when you get back."

"Later Karma."

After Karma and the rest of the class left, I made my way to the nearest soda machine.

I guess I can just have a coffee. I haven't had one in awhile, and it tastes great when I'm in a good mood, so…

I put my money in, pressed a few buttons, and out came my drink. I grabbed it from the machine, popped the tab, and started to roam.

I wonder where all the teachers went. All I know is that they were called for some sort of special meeting. Well, I can worry about that later. For now, I think I'll just head back to-

My train of thought was immediately cut off when I accidentally bumped into two kids from one of the upper classes.

"Hey, watch where you're going punk."

I looked at him in an unamused look annoyance. "And, what makes you think I'm a punk?"

"Well, I haven't seen your face around here recently, so that means you're either a transfer student to a different class of ours, or you're one of those E-Class rejects. Honestly, I can't tell which right now, but that doesn't mean I like you."

"Same here buddy I don't like you either. And, by the way, I'm both a transfer and one of those 'E-Class rejects' you were talking about. But, if I were you, I wouldn't mess with me."

The two just laughed. "Oh yeah? And are you going to prove it to us too?"

Then, one of them grabbed me by my collar and lifted me up. "You're just some freak kid that doesn't even know what the school uniform is. We oughta' kill your ass right now for the disrespect you're showing our school."

"That may be a little harder than you think."

I seemed to vanish from his hands when I suddenly tapped the two on their shoulders. He looked back to his hands and back at me with a shocked expression.

"Wait, what the hell?"

"It's a bit hard to mess with something you can't catch, isn't it?"

One of them growled and threw a punch at me, but I ducked under his hand with a calm expression.

"Well, I don't want to start a fight, so I'll be leaving now."

I turned and started to walk away from them, but stopped when both of them came running at me with fists held out. Right as they were about to make contact with me, I caught both fists and pushed them away.

"Oh, and don't think about telling any lies about what happened here to the principal. I've got the entire thing on video that is ready to be posted to the internet and forwarded to all staff within this facility. Now, I think I'll be on my way now. And the video has already been cut, so if you attack again, you won't be the ones on the offense."

I said that last part with enough fear that it made both of the students run in the opposite direction.

"Welp, better get back before they worry about me."

Codex: Was it good?

Ace: Of course it was.

Ace: What?

Codex: If it was good or not.

Ace: Oh.
