First Day Time First Period
BANG! HEY! BANG! SWOSH! BANG! PING!
'It's really noisy in there.'
A girl thought as she stood just outside the classroom of Class E. She had looked up from the same line she was reading for the past two minutes since the octopus teacher entered the room. With an inaudible sigh, she closed the book to put it in her bag.
Tucking some loose hair on her left ear, she listened carefully to distinguish what actual sounds were in the class, instead of just hearing noise. She had avoided doing this earlier, hence the book, but old habits die hard.
She could hear the sounds of three guns firing as well as the grunts or yelps of their handlers. Pellets from what she could hear were not only being fired but were also rebounding from solid walls or various objects. Despite all that, names were being called by her soon-to-be homeroom teacher as well as
'…her target.'
"Your target."She could hear that man's voice still.
Taking a green knife out of her pocket, her hands started to twirl it with practiced ease. Trying to distract herself, she thought back to what had happened a little while ago.
"I want you to kill this creature." The man who introduced himself as Karasuma suddenly stated to her.
"I want you to kill this person."
A single file of said creature was handed to her. Her eyes landed on the picture of a shiny yellow creature wearing an academic hat and black academic dress. The creature's large stripped head was smiling quite smugly back at her. What stood out to her most, excluding its yellow body, was the crescent shaped moon on its tie.
'An octopus?' she blinked before she gazed intently at the creature's weird yellow tentacles. Her face were not showing any of the disbelief she was feeling at her situation. At the same time, Karasuma was observing her reaction or rather lack of.
The two of them were in the teacher's office at the old campus. She had arrived for her first day and was greeted by the stoic man. She initially presumed him to be her homeroom teacher but was corrected before long when he immediately introduced himself.
"This creature destroyed 70 percent of the Moon with the speed of Mach 20."
She merely raised an eyebrow to the statement, but inwardly she was contemplating. If she wasn't already regretting her decision in enrolling in this school, she had reason to do so now. She was missing something here.
A green knife, a gun, and a jar of BB pellets entered her field of vision. Looking back up to Karasuma, she took them with unseen reluctance.
"And he will be your homeroom teacher."
Now, she's regretting letting herself fall in this isolated classroom on the mountains. She shouldn't have listened to-
"Before we start class, Sensei would like to introduce to you a new classmate." She hears the teacher announce, taking her back to the present. "Please enter, Celeste-san."
Pocketing the knife in her hand, she walks inside the classroom.
Emotionless.
That was the word Class E would describe the transfer student. Or more specifically, her face.
She was standing there in front of them with such an expressionless face. Her emotionless eyes were deep and vivid purple. Her bright long pink hair was loose reaching her lower back. Her fringe was swept to the right side of her face while strands of pink were tucked on her left ear, revealing an amethyst gem earing. She was petite and was an inch shorter than the smallest in class who was Kayano. She would've been cute but with the firm line of her lips and emotionless stare, she would most likely give them a run for their money in poker. If only they knew...
Her uniform were the beige cardigan which were clearly a size too big for her torso. The sleeves were too long since only her fingers were visible. The skirt she wore her at a short length, ending at the middle of her thighs. Her black socks fit up to a few inches below skirt.
Overall, she was pretty, petite, and emotionless like a doll.
At the same time that they were observing her, she was discerning them as well. Her eyes went around the class, calculating them emotionlessly. Her gaze swept around the room to each of its occupant, her classmates rather, but her eyes had last longer on a blue haired boy.
The boy was clearly observing her far too intently. But what caught her eyes more so was his presence which was something else. While, the green haired girl beside him was…
'Familiar?' She thought. 'No, someone related to her maybe…'
The sound of the chalk writing on the blackboard stopped what was starting to become a staring contest between the class and the transfer. Gazes were turned towards the board. Even, the new girl directed her gaze at the board.
Seresute Ezarea was written in Katakana.
"Please introduce yourself, Celeste-san." The yellow octopus known as dubbed as the homeroom teacher said with chalk in hand, er, tentacle.
Eh? The whole class thought. A foreigner?
"Celeste Azalea desu."
A quiet voice says in a deadpanned voice but it was… Their gazes went back to the new girl who had bowed to them. They all stared at her in disbelief.
B-b-beautiful.
"Yoroshiku." Azalea finishes with an emotionless tone.
She had a sweet pleasant voice. It was girlish even. Quite right for her petite stature. Forget how deadpanned it sounded though!
"Celeste-san is from Europe so please be nice to her." The octopus teacher said. "Also, Celeste-san's seat will be behind Hara-san. Hara-san, please raise your hand."
The last girl who was at the back raised her hand as requested. A vacant seat was behind her. Even when she nodded to Hara, Azalea still focused on the octopus, more specifically his voice.
"Plus, she will be a new ally in your assassination attempts so take good care of her." The octopus continued. His smile widening even more. "Any questions?"
"Nee, sensei," Azalea started.
Everyone gapped still at the new girl spoke. That voice was definitely beautiful.
"Hai?" The big smile was turned to her. But everyone gapped even more by the next words she uttered.
"You seem familiar. Have we met before?"
Silence answered her. Small beady eyes were staring at those emotionless violet eyes. They all waited for their teacher's response.
No answer.
"Never mind." She shrugs, proceeding towards an empty seat behind the Hara girl by the window at the back. Eyes followed her still even when she had sat down.
"Anything else?" The octopus teacher finally breaking the silence that had covered the room. When no one spoke, he continued cheerfully. "Then, let's start class."
DING! DONG! DING DONG!
At the sound of the lunch bell, their octopus sensei stopped his lecture and dismissed them for lunch. He said something about getting some exotic food from some other country. Azalea wasn't really paying much attention to what he said after the bell rang.
She was itching to take out her book and continue where she left it. Plus, she was very hungry. Just as she took out her book and a big bento, her pursuit to a quiet lunch with a book was disturbed.
"Etto, Seresute-san," she heard. Looking up, she saw a tall girl with long gray hair in a ponytail and straight bangs smile kindly at her.
Noticing the few curious eyes at her, Azalea knew she wouldn't get much reading anytime soon. Resigning herself to her fate, she responded in her monotonous voice.
"Hai?"
'Her voice really is pleasant to the ear.' Shiota Nagisa thought. He was one of the few curious students that was watching the foreign transfer student interacting with the two class representatives. 'Despite its monotone.'
"We are the class representatives. I am Kataoka Megu," the tall girl introduces herself. Then pointing at a black spiky haired boy beside her, "and this is Isogai Yuuma. If you have any question about school, let either of us know."
"We can give you a tour around the campus, now, if you're okay with it." The boy, Isogai, says.
They all waited for her answer. Azalea was about to decline, but her stomach answered for her quite loudly.
GROWL!
"Can we do it tomorrow? I skipped breakfast." Azalea says, after a bit of silence. Her face was still as deadpanned as ever. But had they been as observant as their octopus sensei, they would have also noticed the slight reddening of her ears.
"T-that's o-okay, nee, Isogai-kun?" Kataoka stuttered. She was trying her best not to react at all.
"A-ah, r-right. S-since we were going to plan ways to assassinate Sensei, nee?" Isogai stuttered as well. Like Kataoka, he was trying hard not to react.
"R-right, a-anyway, if you have any ideas of assassinating Sensei, let us know as well." Kataoka answers. "Jaa nee."
'AWKWAAAARD!' was what ran through their minds as they all looked elsewhere.
'What a way to start the first day of school!' was what ran through her mind.
