Part One: Mello
Ch.1
When you happen to have an average IQ of 200 and you have a mischievous nature, all sorts of fun things can happen. Well, okay, the fun things happen when you can get away with them. See, I live in an orphanage full of genius kids who s only goal is to be the best. The best, is L. We try. Doesn t mean we succeed .
I am the second best. My name is Mello. I can be naughty sometimes, but all in all, I m not too bad. I tend to piss some people off, but its okay, because this place needs a little life to it. Its so dull! All anyone ever does is study. There needs to be some excitement around here
I tap my pencil against my desk, bored as all hell at the current lesson being taught by R.
Mello! Stop it! you re going to get into trouble! Amelia hisses from behind me.
I laugh and how would this be different than any other day? I grin wickedly, watch this
I flick my pencil at R and it hits him square in the back of the head. Bull s-eye! I try not to laugh, and I hear Amelia sigh behind me. She hates it when I do things like this
Mello! Up here NOW! R yells.
Yes sir I say laughing.
I walk up to the desk and stand in front of him
You did that, didn t you?! he says hotly.
Can you prove it? You were turned around!
Suddenly, as planned, the bell chimes for lunch and everyone rushes out of the room
I ll get you, I swear! he growls at me
As if! I yell, running out of the room, free at last.
