Hello fellow readers, writers, and those who are bored. I want to say sorry for my last chapter. It could have been so much better, but it was not. I'm gravely sorrowful. However! I will try extra hard to make this chapter much better! Just getting used to the high school fanfiction type of writing... Hmph.
Lets begin, shall we?
Chapter 2: Classes Begin!
"All students report to the auditorium for a warm welcome from Principal Vaati!"
Everyone that was inside or near the academy building heard the announcement. Including the group of new girls and guys.
"Blue!" Green yelled. "Come on, man! You can't just run off without us!" He began running after his friend as he quickly walked off.
"Green, can you quit annoying me already? I'm not going anywhere without you guys, damn it." Blue responded, stopping suddenly. However, Green wasn't fast enough to stop himself, causing him to run into Blue. Green falls backward, but Blue doesn't budge.
"Ahh... Ow..." Green muttered to himself, rubbing his backside. He stood up, seeing a guffawing Blue. Green facepalmed, silently laughing to himself at his own klutziness.
"You okay?" Grace asked, walking up to Green. He looked up at her, almost surprised that she cared.
"Uh, yeah. I'm fine." Green responded, standing up. Grace smiled, relieved that he was okay.
"...Are you gonna follow us everywhere, or something?" Blue asked Grace, pointing at her. Grace shrugged.
"Maybe." Grace answered. Then, she looked at Green, as if expecting something to be said.
"Uhh... Sure?" Green said, not sure whether he gave the correct answer or not. Grace smiled, her emerald eyes gleaming.
"Thanks! Since none of us know the school, I guess it would be best if we stuck with you guys." Grace said. Then, remembering something, she gasped. "Oh! I don't think we've fully introduced ourselves, yet..."
"It's fine. We already know who you and Brittany are. Just..." Green looked to the other three girls that were talking to Vio, Shadow, and Red.
...Not them."
"Oh. The girl with red eyes is named Rosie. Lavender eyes, glasses, and long hair is Victoria. The shadow one is named Samantha. Victoria and Samantha know each other really well." Grace said, pointing to each girl as she named them.
"Cool. Anyway, I think we should start heading to the auditorium before Principal Vaati starts complaining that you girls haven't showed up yet..." Green said. Grace nodded, then she turned to the other girls.
"Hey! We need to head to... Umm... Oh, the auditorium! Come on!" Grace called out, her hands cupping her mouth. The girls and guys turned to the sound of Grace's voice, then nodded and ran over.
"Lets go then!" Brittany said, walking ahead of the others. However, as they all entered the hallways, they were greeted by a certain queen of the school.
"Green, Vio, Red, Blue, and Shadow! Hey!" Zelda said, walking over. She walked away from Saria and Ruto, who were talking to each other about shoes.
"Hi Zelda." Green said. Zelda giggled as she walked up to the green eyed boy.
"Who are these girls? Are they all new?" Zelda asked. She eyed each of the girls, looking at each of their features and expressions closely.
"Yeah, all of them. This is-" Green started, but was cut off rudely by Zelda.
"Oh, their names don't really matter. I was just... Wondering." Zelda interrupted, staring at the girls. All of them became slightly uncomfortable with her staring.
"Umm..." Rosie began, but was also cut off by Zelda.
"Kay then. See you later~!" Zelda cooed, giving Green a little peck on his cheek.
Green paused. What... Just happened? He watched Zelda walk in the direction of the auditorium, and watched her turn her head and wave flirtatiously to him.
"Uh, Green? You alive there, buddy?" Blue asked, shaking Green's shoulder slightly. Green shook his head, as if to clear his mind of all thoughts.
"Y-Yeah, I'm fine. Lets just get to the auditorium." Green told them. Then, they all began to walk down the hallways into the auditorium.
"What was that all about?" Brittany asked. Blue chuckled, crossing his arms.
"Zelda. Green used to drool over her, but he got over her once they broke up last year." Blue answered. Brittany smirked, looking ahead once more.
They opened the doors into the huge auditorium, and to their horror, the announcement had already begun.
"Ah, there they are." Principal Vaati said. His long, lavender hair was shining in the lights that illuminated the stage. His red eyes fell upon the boys and girls that had just entered. "Will the new girls please come down here and introduce themselves?"
Grace, Brittany, Victoria, Rosie, and Samantha paused. But when Principal Vaati beckoned them with his hand, they slowly walked down. The boys instantly took their seats in the top row, not wanting to get caught being late to an announcement in the beginning of the year.
"There we go. Line up so they can see you." Principal Vaati instructed. The girls followed, and they were also illuminated by the lighting. Samantha cringed but still kept her cool under the lights.
"Now, introduce yourselves. You, young lady to the far left." Principal Vaati said, pointing to Rosie at the far left. She nodded, then looked to the crowd of people.
Smiling, she introduced herself. "I'm Rosie I. Flaria." She said, then she stopped. Principal Vaati nodded, then pointed to Brittany.
"Brittany H. Aquatia." Brittany said, only not as eager.
When pointed to, Victoria folded her hands behind her back, and closed her eyes. "I am Victoria P. Aria." She said, her voice calm and smooth.
"Samantha R. Crystal." Samantha said, crossing her arms.
"Grace D. Gaia." Grace said, waving to the crowd. A few waved back, but others just did nothing.
"Well, be sure to give these five..." Principal Vaati paused, taking note of their similar appearances. "...Similar girls. Now, your schedules will be given in your homerooms, and each homeroom has a list of students in it. Find your homeroom and wait for the next announcements. Thank you, now you may all go to your homerooms." He waved them off, allowing the students to leave.
The girls hurried off the stage, all of them getting crowded by the large amount of students around them. Rosie held on to Victoria's arm, who held Samantha's Who held Grace and Brittany by their blazers.
"These crowds are huge..." Victoria mumbled. Samantha nodded in agreement, sweatdropping at the sight of all of the students around them.
"Hey! Over here!" Grace heard Green's voice and turned to the sound. She saw him waving for them to go that way.
"Hey, they're up there!" Grace told the other girls. Their eyes flew to where Grace was telling them, and they walked that way. They tripped a few times, but finally made it up to the top level near the door.
"Finally. You girls took forever!" Blue commented, smirking. Brittany glared at him, and opened her mouth to say something, but Victoria put her hand on Brittany's shoulder.
"Don't." Victoria said simply, giving her a look. Brittany pouted and crossed her arms, looking away from the intelligent girl.
"Lets find out where our homerooms are!" Red exclaimed, leading them all out of the auditorium.
Chaos surged through the hallways. Lockers had paper shoved in it, and people were either being yelled at by Groose and his gang or a group of girls were swooning over some jocks or just talking in large groups. Victoria narrowed her eyes, not liking the atmosphere.
"You'll get used to it." Victoria heard a calm voice next to her. She turned her head, seeing Vio looking straight ahead. He pushed up his glasses, closing his eyes in disgust. "It'll be hard, but you will eventually."
"... I hope." Victoria responded, holding her messenger bag close to her. She walked ahead of Vio, following the rest of the group. Vio followed them soon after.
"Hey guys!" Red called out, waving for the others to join him. "We're all in the same homeroom!"
"Huh, what are the odds?" Green commented, examining the list. It was true. They were all in the same homeroom, and the homeroom teacher was the English Teacher, Mr. Neko.
"Cool, I guess." Brittany said, looking at the list as well. She scrunched her nose when she also saw Zelda's name in the list. "Zelda's here too."
"She is?" Grace asked, pushing Brittany and Green out of the way. She closely examined the list, and saw her name. Her ears turned slightly red, but she turned away.
"..." Victoria closely examined her behavior. A gear was set in place, and she smirked. She knew exactly what it meant, but she kept her mouth shut.
"Excuse me, children. Are you all in my homeroom?" An old mane spoke. He was very short, and was wearing a navy blue tuxedo. They all nodded, and he let them in.
"Oh! Green! You're in this homeroom too?" Zelda asked. Green nodded, but before he could say anything, Zelda pulled him in for a huge hug. Grace was burning holes through Zelda's head, but Zelda ignored her.
"U-U-Uh..." Green stuttered, turning slightly pink at Zelda's sudden embrace. Why was she acting like this all of a sudden? What had happened over the summertime?
"I'm just glad." Zelda said. Then, her smile was wiped clean off of her face when she noticed the girls. "Them again?"
"Uh, yeah. Us again. Problem?" Brittany asked, her attitude sparking. Zelda narrowed her eyes, but then changed to a sweet face again.
"Oh, it's nothing really. I was just... Surprised." Zelda said. She looked at the others, then noticed Grace's glare. "Do you have some sort of issue?" She asked.
"No, nothing at all, your highness." Grace mimicked Zelda's faux sweet voice. Zelda glared at her, but then turned around.
"Whatever." Zelda said, walking to her seat next to her best friends Saria and Ruto. She whispered to them, and they began giggling. Grace rolled her eyes, and they all sat at a large, circular table.
"What was that all about?" Rosie asked. Green shrugged, still slightly pink in the face. Grace crossed her arms, not wanting to look at Zelda.
The intercom rang, and Principal Vaati spoke through it. The students and teacher in the room all kept quiet to listen to the announcement. "Welcome, students, to Hyrule Academy. Today is the start of the new school year and the first week. During the first week, all of you will get accustomed to your schedules, teachers, and students around you."
Grace did not like the last part.
"As you all relax for the time being, the schedules will be delivered by the staff to each homeroom. It is in alphabetical order, so please take your time when giving them out, teachers." Principal Vaati paused. "As for the students, get used to the five new girls introduced this morning. I do not want to see any of you targeting them like the episode last year. Good day to you all."
As the announcement ended, the chatter outside in the halls and inside the room commenced again. However, the girls had a few questions to ask before relaxing.
"What happened last year?" Samantha asked. The boys paled, not wanting to answer.
"Just tell us, to get it off your chests." Victoria said.
"It was some guy last year. He was really good with technology. So much so that he was considered a huge nerd." Green began. As he continued, he swallowed a lump in his thoat. "The girls insulted him, including Zelda. The guys beat him up. It hurt him so bad one day that..." Green trailed off, and the other boys around them had saddened looks, minus Vio of course.
"...Oh..." Rosie said.
"That was why you broke up with Zelda, right?" Blue asked. Green nodded, crossing his arms.
"She even said that it didn't matter. That it wasn't really hurting him. The thing is, he would come begging for us to help him, and we tried but..." Green trailed off again, rubbing his arm. "Nothing we could do."
"Huh." Victoria said. "Good with technology? Reminds me of someone."
"Who?" Vio asked. However, before Victoria could answer, the staff member entered the room.
"Here are the schedules, Professor Neko." The staff member said, handing them a block of papers. Professor Neko nodded, thanking the staff and waving him off.
He called the names one by one, until they were all handed out. "Okay. Some of you have me first period. I will assign you all seats, and I want you to be silent until the other students come in, okay?" Everyone nodded. He sat down, and then a few seconds later...
The bell rang for first period.
"Have a good day." Professor Neko said to them. Everyone examined their schedules, and at least half of the class left, including Grace, Green, Brittany, Samantha, Red, and Zelda. The others that remained stood up, awaiting their given seats.
"Okay, Rosie will sit here, and I want Groose back there..." Professor Neko started to give them all seats, and once they were all seated, he began to write things on the electronic board he was given two years before.
"Okay. Today, we'll do a simple review I'm sure you all know." Prof. Neko began. He started to write, and speak.
"Psst." Victoria heard behind her. Her long ears twitched, but she ignored him. "Psst." She glared holes into someone's back of their head.
"PSST." She closed her eyes, trying to ignore the person behind her. Then, she felt something tap her shoulder. She looked, and it was a paper someone held. She picked up the paper, and looked to the person behind her.
A quite large boy with ridiculous looking red hair sat. His red eyebrows moved up and down, as if to flirt with her.
She narrowed her lavender eyes at him, the shadows created by her hair covering them. She slowly turned around, and opened her paper.
In sloppy handwriting, it read:
"U wanna go out?"
Victoria looked at the paper, embarrassed that she was even asked such a question from such a repulsive looking person. She held out the paper to him, making sure he watched her rip it in half. She dropped the paper on the floor, putting her hands on the desk again.
She could hear snickering behind her, and she smirked. She didn't care whether they were laughing at her or at the boy behind her. But when she heard a "Shut up!" whispered loudly from behind, she got her answer.
"Is there something wrong, Groose? Something you need to tell us?" Prof. Neko asked, directing the attention to the boy behind Victoria. Even she looked behind to see his pathetic face.
"N-No, sir. Nothing." Groose responded. She smirked, then turned to face the front along with the rest of the class.
"That was what I thought." Prof. Neko said, turning back to the board. "Now, onto the lesson..."
"You better watch your back, Victoria." Victoria heard. She turned her head, seeing Groose's flushed face. Obviously, it was flushed because of anger, not embarrassment.
"Or what?" Victoria whispered back. Groose smirked, and then...
The bell rang once more, signaling a fifteen minute free period.
"Okay, students. You are dismissed." Prof. Neko said. However, before he could turn around, people already began to leave the classroom.
Victoria heard Rosie walking up to her. She turned to her, expecting her to ask about what happened.
"What did Groose do?" Rosie asked. Victoria chuckled, crossing her arms.
"He asked me to go out with him." Victoria answered, shaking her head. "As if."
"Yeah. As if. I think that Vio guy would fit you better, don't you think so?" Rosie asked, walking away with her stuff in hand.
Victoria paused. Vio? Why Vio? Did they have something in common? Other than the glasses, of course. Dismissing the questions for later, she got her stuff and walked into the once again chaotic hallways. She checked her schedule, seeing free period. She figured that she should go somewhere that she and the others could group together in. Walking down the chaotic hallways, she saw Groose talking a group of other males.
She paid no attention to him. As she passed, she heard him stop, and a few others snicker. She took it as a warning signal, and picked up her pace. Then, she heard footsteps. She looked behind her, and to her horror...
He was chasing her with fists balled and face angry.
Keeping her calm, she ran quickly through the crowds of people. Silently and swiftly dodging crowds and individuals. She could hear shouts and cusses behind her as Groose pushed through crowds and individuals. Victoria smirked, continuing her running until...
She hit a dead end.
She began to think harder than ever before, knowing that this boy could actually pose a threat to her well being. However, she hadn't much time when she heard him yell at her.
"There you are, little prick." Groose said, getting his two buds to corner Victoria. She forced herself to keep calm, so she turned around to face him directly.
"What do you want?" Victoria asked. "Your dignity back? Sorry, but that won't be happening soon."
Groose had it. He stomped up to her and pinned her to the wall. "Look here, girl. You won't be getting out of this without something being pummeled, got that? Quit acting so superior!"
Victoria did not show it, but she truly was horrified. His body size was significantly bigger than her own, and she could not get away. She flinched when she saw him get a punch ready, aimed straight for her face.
"What the hell?-!"
Victoria did not feel the punch. Instead she heard a voice. She opened one lavender eye, and saw Vio, Green, Grace, and Blue. They all stood behind Groose, and his two buds were freaking out.
"Groose. Take your hands off of her, now." Vio warned, his voice threatening.
"Or what, smartass?" Groose asked. He kept one hand on Victoria's shoulder, making sure she wouldn't move.
Vio smirked, handing his bag to Blue. Blue was shocked, but still held it. "'Or what', you ask?"
"Yeah." Groose said. He sharply removed a hand from Victoria's shoulder, but she just stood in the same spot. "What'll ya do, smartass?"
"Never thought you'd ask, dimwit." Vio said. His sharp, lavender eyes glaring at him, not leaving their target.
"Who you callin' dimwit?-!" Groose yelled, rolling up his sleeves.
"You." Vio answered. That caused Groose to snap. He went in for the tackle against Vio. However, Vio dodged to the side before Groose could get at him.
"Why you little!" Groose yelled. He balled his fist, ready to punch Vio.
However, he received a punch instead.
Victoria drew back her fist, putting herself in the fighting position. She watched him spin around, and he got in the same position. She smirked, readied her leg...
And kicked him right in the crotch.
"GAH!" Groose yelled. He grabbed his crotch, falling to the floor. Victoria patted her own clothing, making sure any dust or dirt was removed. Blue stood, mouth agape at her.
"What?" Victoria asked, calm as ever. "It was nothing. He was just a weakling after all." She picked up Vio's bag from Blue, leaving him wide eyed and still mouth agape.
She walked over to Vio, handing him the bag. He picked it up, putting it over his shoulder. "Thanks for helping me." She said. Vio nodded in response, saying, "No problem. He is quite the moron, isn't he?"
"You can say that again." Grace said. "You okay?"
"I'm fine. Thankfully, you guys got here before he could do any damage." Victoria answered. She and the others walked away from the area, preparing for the next bell...
Which signaled for the next few hours of hell.
Well. I must say, this is SO much better. More refreshing of a chapter than the last, don't you all agree? I'm glad that I could write a better chapter, and I'm still getting the hang of the high school mechanics type thing. So, yeah. Sorry 'bout that. I hope you enjoyed this chapter more than the last. I shall bid you adieu until the next chapter. Bye!
