Disclaimer: I dont own the teen titans but i did add some OCs like Zane.
I grabbed the woven purple backpack and slung it over my shoulder. Should I be doing this? I mean school? I probably already know all the things they'll teach me. But a normal school is something new. I could meet people who aren't just my partners in crime but friends.
"Are you sure you wanna do this?" See-More popped his head threw my door with a worried look in his eye."Why are you doing this anyway?"
He started pouting like some kind of Cyclops baby.
"I'm tired of people running away from me and me not having any friends I want something remotely normal in my life. And this is it."
"But you don't need girlfriends I'm here and Mammoth and…" I held up my hand and his voice died away.
"I think you slaughtered your cause when you said Mammoth. See you later. I walked past him and out the door.
The school wasn't far from HQ and I could easily walk from there but to make things seem more normal I had purchased a condo that was also close to the school. I wasn't giving up on the Hive 5. I was just taking a break. From here on until the end of the school year I wasn't Jinx. I was Violet Jewl Vega. A regular girl you know not adding in the fact that I had no parents but that's fine. Violet was my favorite color, Jewl (jewel) was the only memory I had of my parents (more on this later), and Vega was actually my real last name.
I walked into the halls of Jump city High. Of course I wasn't dumb enough to come as jinx so instead I used an ability that I wasn't even aware I had until a couple of years ago. I could slightly change my features. It took a lot of work and sitting still but it was possible. I changed my pink horns into slightly wavy brown hair and my catlike pink eyes into regular violet ones which aren't common but it is still more regular. I didn't have to do anything about my gray skin because when I was on a mission in the desert once I got really badly sunburned all over and it never really turned back to gray it turned into a fair white like I've always wished it would be.
The halls were full of people id never met which I guess is expected but I was still somewhat surprised. It was just a long hall that branched off in some places. It was lined with red lockers and there were like five hundred posters on the walls advertising clubs and telling you to buy tickets for the homecoming dance. At the end of the hall was a table where they were selling the tickets that was surrounded by girls in skimpy cheerleading uniforms that were blue, red, and black. Not too Far from them were big tall guys all wearing Letterman jackets. I took the first turn and walked into the door that read office on it.
"Hi I'm new here my names violet" an old woman looked up at me with a thick frown on her face.
"They said you'd be coming here's your schedule with all your classes get it signed by your teachers in each class and at the end of the day your last period teacher will take it from you."I took the paper and she immediately started ignoring me. "Chelsea" she called for someone from the back.
"Hello!" A short girl came in from another door and walked past me with urgency. I followed her because that seemed like the best thing to do. "Let me see your schedule" I held it out for her and she quickly swiped it from my hands and began to scan it.
"Hi I'm violet" She looked up and smiled at me. We walked past large double doors and held her hand out to them
"that's the cafeteria there's numbers on the classes so they should be easy to find and at the end of that hall" she motioned to where the hall split off to the left." is the library."
"Okay that's easy enough". She stopped abruptly and pushed my schedule into my chest
"Okay I'll see you around" the short blonde waddled off from whence she came leaving me alone in the crowded hall. Taking a look at my schedule I saw that she had left me right in front of my first period classroom.
I stood in front of a tall blue door with the number 207 on it and a paper that said Mr. Hall on it under the number. It reminded me of the large yellow doors that opened up to an unforgiving classroom in the hive academy. This was all like the hive. Just without the super villains in training. I could do this.
I swung open the door to find a tall man sitting behind a wooden desk. He looked up at me and smiled.
"Violet they said you'd be coming". He looked nice enough so I walked over to him and gave him the paper.
"Well. This is your first period so when the bell rings come here until then go to your locker and put our stuff away don't worry if you're a little bit late. It's called making an entrance". I smiled at him he was really nice and I was happy he was the first teacher I would have.
I nodded my head and grabbed the paper he had signed back
"Oh, and in case you were wondering. Yes I'm gay." I looked back at him surprised at first but then I smiled and nodded. It was gonna be a good year.
After I had found my locker and opened it the halls were already empty. It was sort of nice to be alone for while after being in that crowd of people for so long. I walked back to room 207 with my pink binder in hand but I was starting to get nervous. Right now I wasn't jinx. people didn't know Violet and they didn't care if they made her look bad or if they angered her. I stopped in front of room 207 and sighed. Here goes nothing.
The door swung open in obedience to my hand and I walked into the room full of sophomores. All eyes were on me. They had anticipation and surprise across their faces.
"Class this is our new student Violet. Be nice." Mr. Hall looked over at me and gave me a reassuring smile. I scanned the room and found that the only seat was in the far back corner next to a guy in a letter man jacket signaling he was a jock.
It was uncomfortable to walk down the aisle with all the eyes in the room on me. When I reached my seat I sat down as quickly as possible and tried not to make eye contact with any of them.
"Hey I'm Zane" the jock smiled down at me.
"Violet, nice to meet you."It was weird talking to a guy who wasn't my mortal enemy or an idiot I lived with.
"Nice to meet you too."He looked at me with soft hazel eyes and I felt really weird all of a sudden, behind those eyes was a different person and I found myself wanting to know that person. They were so soft and inviting and he was built tall and skinny. He was just like the boyfriend every girl wanted. You know except for me because I didn't come here to surround myself with even more guys.
"So how's life in Jump High?" He looked at me sort of surprised and then nodded at me.
"Jump High? You know I never thought of calling it that but it actually ss." He leaned back in his chair and let his dark hair fall into his eyes as he moved his body to face me.
"Well it's a lot cooler here." He was smiling but I think it could have bounds pretty cool. Thanks for the tip." He winked at me playfully and then did a sort of half laugh. "Yeah but it's great. You seem cool so you should have no problem with making friends and the teachers are pretty laid back too"
"Good at my last school everyone there had a major stick up their ass"
"Well that's good to hear."
"Let me see your schedule I'll give you some pointers."He held out his hand to me and I gave him my schedule. He eyed it carefully and every few seconds his expression would change or he'd shake his head."You have some awesome teachers. Wish this was my schedule. He handed it back to me." You're cool if you don't already have a bunch of requests by lunch you should come sit by me I sit in the back of the Café. It's hard not to see me."I opened my mouth to reply but the bell rang and a chick with long blonde hair grabbed Zane's arm and pulled him toward the exit. Zane gave me a wiry smile and a short wave but then he got lost in the crowd.
After third period was lunch and I hadn't had any other outstanding friends or lunch invites so instead I grabbed a pudding, salad, and water and headed for the back of the cafeteria to sit with Zane. I was sort of nervous because I generally didn't like crowds and earlier he seemed pretty popular.
As I neared the back I saw Zane sitting on top of the table talking to some girls. The table he sat at was held up by a stage and certainly wouldn't be missed by anyone. He saw me coming and started waving his arms in the air, like he wasn't already noticeable enough.
"You were right no missing you."I smirked at him and set down my food on the table.
"Yeah well I'm a man who likes to be seen" I shook my head at him again."Okay so let me introduce you to everyone. This is Caitlyn and Karma." He leaned in and whispered to me."They're twins" I looked at the slutty girls standing behind Zane. They looked almost exactly the same. The same green eyes. The same short dirty blonde hair. The only difference was that one had a hickey on the side of her neck.
"This is Brandon and Cody" The two jocks looked at me seductively and nodded my way. "Jake" a blonde guy who was scrawled across a table making out with a skinny blonde girl in black waved to me from under the girl. "Selena."The girl came up for air, smirked at me, and promptly began sucking face again. "And over there is Kitten and Daniel."He finished introducing everyone and turned to look at me.
"So how were classes" He smiled at me kindly and waited for an answer. Did he just ask me how my day went? How unexpected.
"You were right my classes were awesome." He shook his head.
"Well all of your teachers were the ones I wanted this year so they better be." I laughed at him and shook my head. The conversation ran wild skipping from school to cheetahs to the newest call of duty game to ballerinas and fat people all the way to my family. I wasn't sure how the conversation had gotten here but she didn't like it.
"I actually have no parents they died a long time ago"
"Oh I'm so sorry"
"Way to go Karma! You made Violet feel bad"
"That's so terrible"
I'm sorry geesh how was I supposed to know"
"Wish my parents would die"
"Can I have my spoon back?"
"Karma your heartless"
"Doesn't anyone care about my spoon?"
"Kitten shut the FUCK up about your spoon!" People murmured their apologies to me and sort of avoided eye contact with me. Diiiiiing! The bell rang signaling the end of lunch and every one quickly dispersed from our group into smaller groups going in various directions. I stood up slowly and looked around at the other stragglers in the room and sighed. What are parents useful for anyway?
At the end of the day I grabbed my woven purple backpack and began to walk home. It wasn't a foreign feeling being alone when everyone else is together and knowing that what they're talking about is you. But now I wasn't sure if it was negative or not and it just…
"Sup Violet!" Zane tackled me from behind and I immediately was in battle mode. Before I realized what was happening my eyes were glowing pink and I was just about to put Zane in the hospital.
"Oh hey Zane do you live around here?" yeah I got a huge condo in there that my parents got me when I turned 15."
"Really?"
"Yeah they didn't want me to start bringing random chicks home so, solution." He gestured towards the complexes.
"I have a condo here too number 213."
"Cool we're like neighbors."
"Yeah we are aren't we? See you around" I waved back at him while I walked up to condo number 213 and pulled out my keys. I had fully decorated and stocked it with cooking tools and all that. Figured I might as well make it somewhat homey. Right?
So they haven't really come into contact yet? Yea i know you want them to actually talk but i promise its coming. So next chapter you'll find out why Kid Flash wasn't in this chapter. Everything, and i mean everything even kittens spoon, comes together. The mysterious stalker in the description. Why Zane is in this chapter you know. All that stuff.
