Chapter 2 The First Day part 2

Shadow and Cream reached Hotaru-sensei's class for Japanese 3/4 honors.

"Haroo, Shadow. Okaeri nasai!" Hotaru-sensei greeted Shadow.

"Domo arigatou." Shadow replied, slightly bowing to sensei.

"Haroo. Watashi no namae wa Cream." Cream spoke up, bowing also.

Hotaru-sensei smiled and let the two of them in.

Shadow and Cream sat next to each other, and Cream felt a bit nervous. She was the only freshman in Japanese 3/4 honors. When the bell rang, Hotaru-sensei entered the classroom, and smiled brightly at the class.

"Konnichiwa, minasan! Welcome to Japanese 3/4 honors! Before we begin, I would like for the people who you are sitting with choose a Japanese name from the list that is on the board! Then, we will introduce ourselves in English. We will do it in Japanese in a few weeks. Hajimeru!"

Shadow faced Cream and gave her a soft smile.

"I already had a name picked out for you." he said.

Cream looked at him, surprised. "What is it?"

"Kasumi, "mist"." Shadow replied.

"Kasumi…meaning mist…that's pretty. I like it." Cream replied. "Now it's your turn!"

Cream thought long and hard, and a perfect name came to her.

"Hisoka; secretive." Cream replied.

Shadow was surprised by that name.

"Wow. People had usually named me names that meant violent, or fierce, something like that. Why secretive?" Shadow asked.

Cream blushed at the sudden spotlight.

"Well…to me, you're not violent and all those mean things. You seem very quiet, and mysterious."

"Heh…interesting." Shadow replied, smirking to himself.


After Japanese was over, it was time for study hall, and Shadow and Cream had that class together as well. Amy, Silver, and Raven were in that class as well.

"Hey, Shads! So, what's your name in Japanese this time? Let me guess, it's Torao; tiger!" Raven purred as she sauntered over to Shadow.

Raven was in Japanese 7/8 honors, so she knew a lot.

"No, it's Hisoka." Shadow replied.

Raven's laugh could be heard throughout the room.

"Secretive? You're not secretive!"

"Well, Cream has that perspective of me, so why not?" Shadow told her.

"Huh, figures." Raven said snippily, giving me the once over.

Then, Raven focused her attention back on Shadow. "Well, Mr. Secrets, did you secretly miss me?"

"Missing you is not a secret." Shadow replied.

Raven kissed Shadow, and it turned into a snog contest.

"Gross." Cream muttered, walking over to Silver and Amy.

"Hey, Cream!" Silver and Amy greeted.

"Hi." Cream replied.

She glanced back over at Shadow and Raven, and shuddered.

"Are they always that gross?" Cream asked.

"No. When they first went out as juniors, they were the cutest and sweetest couple around," Amy explained.

"But then," Silver added. "She hung out with this wannabe badass girl named Jessica the Hedgehog. After that, Raven turned into Slut the Dark Vixen."

"Shut up Silver!" Amy snapped, whacking Silver.

"Anyways," Amy continued. "Raven then started acting like a flapper."

"Meaning slut." Silver got in quickly.

"Hush, Silver! As I was saying, Raven then started to wear skintight and revealing clothes last year."

"Meaning she looked like a prostitute."

"Shut the front door Silver before I shut it for you!" Amy yelled at him.

I giggled and watched Silver and Amy nag each other.

After the calmed down, Amy continued the story.

"Raven then tried to seduce Shadow, and as you can see, still tries to now. Shadow resists her seducement all the time, and Raven isn't so happy about it."

"Yeah, that means she'll remain a virgin slut!" Silver snickered.

"That was an oxymoron, and therefore made no sense, moron!" Amy snapped again.

Meanwhile, Raven and Shadow were having their own conversation.

"Why are you always with that blond chick Cream?" Raven whined.

"I already explained this. I'm supposed to make Cream comfortable here for two weeks." Shadow replied calmly.

"But you pay so much attention to her!" Raven complained.
"Don't start, Raven." Shadow warned.

Raven rolled her eyes and leaned her head on Shadow's shoulder. She narrowed her eyes at Cream, hate already arising in her eyes.


The bell rang again, and it was time for the last class of the day.

"I have gym." Cream informed Shadow.

"I have gym as well." Shadow replied.

"But I thought that this was a freshman course?" Cream said, surprised.

"Yeah, I already passed this with flying colors. Sonic, Knuckles, Tails, Rouge, and I are doing this as student helpers. It's another service credit. We just help and encourage the freshmen. I heard that this was fun, and all of us are really athletic, so we decided to take this together." Shadow explained.

"That's cool." Cream replied happily.

When they entered the huge gymnasium, Sonic ran up to them.

"Hey Shadsie! Just so you know, I'm going to pretend that we are reliving freshman year; seeing who the fastest thing alive is!" he cried.

Shadow rolled his eyes. "We are here to help freshmen, Mr. Big Shot, not act like kids."

"Aw come on! We need to break that tie on the mile run! I mean, it was purely coincidence that we both finished the mile in ten seconds!" Sonic pointed out.

A loud whistle was blown, and everyone scattered to the bleachers, the freshmen freaked out. The gym teacher strolled out on the gymnasium floor. He was a tall bulldog.

"Listen up!" he shouted. "For the new freshmen, my name is Mr. Boom, but if you're in football or basketball here, I'm addressed as Coach Boom. Isn't that right Sonic?" he asked.

Sonic was goofing off with Knuckles, and he stopped abruptly.

"Right on, Coach B!" Sonic replied.

"That hedgehog will never learn." Coach Boom muttered.

"Now!" he continued. "I would like for you all to meet our student helpers! Shadow, Sonic, Rouge, Tails, and Knuckles. Stand up."

The five stood up, and Sonic waved to the freshmen, grinning cockily.

"You know," Sonic began. "When I was your age, gym was a pain in the-"

"Sit down, Hedgehog!" Coach Boom shouted.

Sonic gave a laugh and sat down. "I was going to say donkey, but okay."

"If you have questions, ask any of those five, or me. They will also assist me in setting up activities and sometimes instructing you. But they will act like normal students in gym class, so don't expect to get out of anything. Now, everyone find a permanent gym partner!"

Shadow glanced at Cream.
"You can be my partner, if you want." he said.

"That would be great!" Cream replied.

After everyone was partnered up (Sonic was with Tails, and Knuckles was with Rouge), Coach Boom passed out uniforms.

"Now, I expect everyone to be fully dressed and ready for training tomorrow! We run the mile test in two weeks, so every day until then will be push-ups, sit-ups, aerobics, and of course, running! No slacking off! Now, I will give you your locker assignments now. The bell will ring in ten minutes, so let's make this quick." Coach Boom said.

Cream winced at his loud voice. I guess his parents didn't make any mistakes with his name. In ten minutes, the bell rang, and the first day of school had concluded. Seeing no need to go to her hallway locker, Cream said bye to Shadow and headed out of school. She noticed that Shadow watched her for a second, and began following her. He wanted to make sure that she knew where she was going.

He then saw that she was crossing the crosswalk, the way out of school on the busy street to walk home. He hurried over to her.

"I'm not letting you walk home by yourself." he said.

Cream jumped in surprise. She didn't see him walk up on her.

"Huh?" was her reply.

"Very few people here at SSH walk home, and a young girl like you shouldn't walk home by yourself." Shadow explained.

"I walk to school, too. It's no big deal." Cream replied.

"A freshman last year was snatched up and raped while walking to school. I'm walking you to and from school." Shadow said, determined.

"Um, okay." Cream replied, not sure what to think of this.

The walk home was long and awkward, and Shadow finally broke the ice.

"Did you enjoy your first day?" he asked.

"Very much! SSH is so different. I like it here." Cream replied.

"I'm glad you like it." Shadow said quietly.

Cream smiled to herself. I have no idea why such a reserved yet nice guy goes out with a girl like Raven. From what I heard from Silver and Amy, she isn't the nicest of people. He should date someone like Amy, or Blaze. They are nice people, and he deserves someone with a personality like them. I wonder what will transpire during this year…

The duo reached Cream's house.

"Dewa mata atode, Kasumi." Shadow said to her.

"Ja ne, Hisoka!" Cream replied, waving to him.

Now memorizing where her house is, Shadow Chaos Controlled away.

Cream entered her house and leaned against the front door.

"Man, what a first day." Cream sighed.
