Hurky: Here's another update! And Jal is JuvenileAngelLuver and Nicole is Hiei's Ice Angel, if any of you are wondering who they are. Just so you know. Enjoy!

Lunchtime had finally rolled around and by then, Sora, Riku, Kairi, Ryo, and Hurky were famished. Kairi and Hurky's fourth period classes were next door to each other, so Kairi showed Hurky where she and everyone else ate lunch. Last year, it was mostly Sora, Riku, and Kairi sitting there. Jal and Nicole would occassionally sit with them, but that was once every three weeks. Now, Hurky and Ryo would join them. Sora's fourth period class was next to the table, so the second the bell rang, Sora immediately darted out of the classroom and threw his backpack onto the table, making sure none of the seniors, juniors, or new freshmen came and took it.

"Hey, I was going to take that table!" whined a senior.

"Ya snooze, ya lose!" sneered Sora.

The senior walked away and Riku came.

"Nice!" he said as he slapped Sora a high five. "We got our table back!"

"Yup!" said Sora. Then, he reached into his backpack and took out his lunch in a brown paper bag.

"Hey guys!" said Hurky as she and Kairi sat down with school lunches, consisting of mashed potatoes with turkey and gravy, a dinner roll, a bag of chips, a small carton of milk and a tiny carton of orange juice.

"I thought you were too senior-ish to sit with us sophomores!" Riku said to Hurky.

"I just haven't made any senior friends yet." said Hurky as she dug her spork into her mashed potatoes and turkey with gravy.

"Excuse me," said a voice. "Can I sit with you guys?"

Sora, Riku, Kairi, and Hurky turned around and saw a girl with brownish red hair with hot pink highlights in her hair, wearing the same dress/cloak as Izumi the Full Metel Alchemist teacher, but pink) sliver earrings, jade green Al Bhed eyes, black choker, diamond locket, gloves like Yuffie's, but pink, plus the same arm knits as Yuffie, a hot pink belt with a heart chain hanging from belt, like how Sora had crowns for a chain, black capris under dress/cloak,wears black boots like Tidus's friend Yuna wore. She was holding a tray of the same lunch Hurky and Kairi had.

"Sure." replied Kairi. "You can sit next to me."

The girl sat down and put her stuff down.

"So, you new here?" asked Riku.

The girl nodded and smiled. "Yup. My name's Alexa!" she stuck out her hand and Riku shook it, then she shook everyone else's hands.

"Hurky's new here, too." said Kairi.

"Oh! Well, what grade are you?" Alexa asked Hurky.

"I'm a senior." replied Hurky.

"Why couldn't you stay at your old school?" asked Alexa as she spooned mashed potatoes in her mouth.

"Old school didn't like me, so they kicked me out." replied Hurky as she picked up her dinner roll. "What grade are you?"

"I'm a sophomore." replied Alexa.

"So are we!" said Kairi. "Except for Hurky, of course."

Alexa turned to Sora, who was sitting right in front of her. "Hey, you're that guy who messed with the roll call sheet first period." she said. "What's your name again?"

"Sora." replied Sora. "Sora Hart. Class clown since September '96!"

"The first grade." muttered Riku as he unwrapped his ham and cheese sandwich. "He told me the first thing he did was put confetti on the teacher's chair, with glue on it and face up, and when the teacher sat on it, she had hearts, stars, diamonds, and other shapes stuck to her big old butt!"

He, Sora, and Kairi laughed.

"Yeah, that was classic!" laughed Kairi.

"What happened when you got sent to the counselor's office?" asked Alexa.

"They let me off with a warning." replied Sora.

"There you are!" called Ryo.

"UGH!" growled Riku. "I was hoping she'd never find us here!"

Ryo sat down next to Riku. "I've been looking everywhere for your table." she said sternly. "I had to ask Nicole from English!"

"Ryo, there's someone I want you to meet." said Kairi, "This is Alexa. Alexa, Ryo's also new here."

"HI!" said Ryo. She shook Alexa's hand.

"So, how do you like Destiny Islands High?" asked Alexa.

"It's great!" replied Ryo excitedly. "I have the most awesome English teacher! She likes anime!"

So, everyone ate their lunches and chatted away happily about their day. Finally, the bell rang. Sora told Alexa that she can sit with them anytime for lunch and everyone went to their classes. Sora went to History, Riku went to wood shop, Kairi went to Geometry, Hurky went to Economics, Ryo went to science, and Alexa went to algebra afterwards. Hurky didn't like the kids in her econ class, let alone the teacher, Mr. Ward.

As soon as Hurky sat down in her econ class, the kids, all seniors, stared at Hurky in a funny way. Finally, one kid asked, "Are you wearing contacts?"

Hurky turned to him. "Um, no." she replied. "Then why would I be wearing glasses?"

"Well, your eyes are kind of...funny looking." said the girl who sat behind her with green eyes.

"Your eyes are brown." said a guy with a halfway bleached mohawk very dully.

"What, you've never seen anyone with brown eyes before?" asked Hurky.

They all shook their heads. Hurky did notice that they all had blue or green eyes.

"They're a rarity." said the girl next to her.

"Hey, you know what we'll call you?" asked the mohawk guy. "The Girl with the Funny Eyes!"

A pudgy girl with long brown hair hit the mohawk guy in the stomach with her elbow.

"OW!" said the mohawk guy.

"Just ignore him, Brownie." she said.

Hurky sat through Econ listening to Ward and the kids all around her snicker and point at her.

School finally ended after several long hours. Riku drove Sora, Hurky, Kairi, and Ryo home. Riku offered to drive Alexa home, but she said she'd walk. When Sora got home, he dropped his stuff on the couch, along with himself, and turned on the TV. When Kairi got home, she ate a snack and went outside. When Hurky got home, she went upstairs, turned on her computer, and surfed the net. Ryo stayed with Riku, went home with him, and they hung out until Riku said that he had homework to do. That's how their first day of school went. And that's just the beginning of the story, everyone!
