Chapter Two

Seven

The platform had teleported them to the school that they had been going to for the past month. They thought that facing the enemies of Kurt would be tough, but middle school was a completely different story, especially for Nine who was accustomed to wearing battle armor almost everywhere he went. At the very least they still kept their swords with them, hidden very well by Kurt, only people who could see through enchantments could see them.

"Ten more minutes until most of the other students get here," Ten commented, "let's stop using our actual names and use our pseudonyms for now." The experiments had decided to avoid suspicion by using the names that Kurt had given to them when they were all separated. They explained away their unusual names by where their "parents" had come from. Their story was that they were all orphans adopted by Kurt.

"Agreed Tevi," Four said, using her pet name for him.

"Folit you know that I hate that pet name you gave me," Ten sighed.

"Here come the first batch of kids," Seven noted. He left the other experiments to go talk his girlfriend that he had gotten in the past month, Xochitl Ingrid Lisno. Seven had pestered her about why she had a weird name but she would never tell him why. The closest thing he got to an explanation was that here first name had Mayan roots.

"Hey Set," she said, using the nickname she made for him.

"Hello Lix," Seven replied using the nickname for her that he "cleverly" came up with by reversing her initials. "I just realized that you haven't fully met my brother. Sertus come here." So that way people didn't get suspicious about about why Six and Seven looked identical but had different last names, they both had the Retuven last name.

"Yeah Seterus," Six answered running up to greet him.

"I want you to meet my girlfriend-" Seven started.

"Xochitl Ingrid Lisno," Lix finished for him. Six just shrugged off the weirdness of her name because his own name was extremely weird. Just then the first bell rang announcing the start of the school day.

Side Note: Lix is my character. Also more weird names. YAAAAAAAAAAAY (Sarcasm intensifies). Also so that way to confuse all of you because I love to confuse people, I decided to keep the experiments names as their actual names and not their pseudonyms in the dialogue tags.
