A Kingdom Hearts High School Experience
By: Nietono-no-Shana
DIRECTIONS: When a question appears, write the letter of your choice on a scratch sheet of paper so you don't forget! Then, when you're done, tally up your answers with the order each boy has. Here's an example: If you chose "a" for question 1 and then "b" for question 2 and then "c" for question 3...
Sora's Results (in numerical order): a, a, b
Riku's Results (in numerical order): b, b, a
Roxas's Results (in numerical order): c, c, c
If this was the outcome, you'd have one point for Sora, one point for Riku, and one point for Roxas, since your answers for each question match up with the results.
NOTE: "Numerical Order" means that the order the letters are arranged are by question number. So, for example, Sora's answers are "a, a, b". So, this means that Sora's answer for Question 1 was "a", his answer for Question 2 was "a", and his answer for Question 3 was "b".
NOTE: "000" means that a character is saying your name.
Hopefully this will go smoothly! Now, let's start KH HS! :D
PART TEN
As you headed out the door in the cool morning for school, you noticed that Roxas wasn't waiting for you up ahead on the sandy trail.
'That's strange,' you thought to yourself. 'He's usually early, isn't he?'
You waited five minutes, looking for Roxas. But once those five minutes were up and he still hadn't come, you decided to walk ahead and go ahead to school. It seemed kind of awkward, though, walking alone and without Roxas, along with his bright smile seemed kind of strange. After all, he had been the first person to ever greet you and take you under his wing…
…Was it about yesterday? The way he was crying and you'd just left him and walked alongside Olette…Did he think that you were choosing sides?
You didn't get to think more on this topic, because you'd arrived at the school and the noise of other students brought you back to the real world. As you walked towards the school's front gate, you heard the low hum of a car coming right behind you, and you turned around to see a huge black limo parking just a few inches away from you.
Curious as to who owned this luxurious car, you waited until the back door to the limo opened and…Riku can out from it.
1) Any comments?
a. Cute, smart, AND rich! Just what exactly does Riku NOT have?
b. Psh, showoff.
c. W-Wow! A limo!
"Thanks, Satou-san," Riku said, looking over his shoulder and back at the limo (he must've been talking to his driver, you thought to yourself). Riku closed the door gently behind him, and the limo turned around and sped off back towards the city-side of Destiny Islands.
A crowd of kids had already formed around the sides of the school, gawking at the limo that had just parked in front of the school. And Riku's fangirls (of course) were huddled up together and sighing wistfully at talking about him.
It was also then that Riku took notice of you and glanced over at you.
"Oh, hey, 000," he said as he blinked his eyes with surprise. "Good morning."
"G-Good morning," you said, still shocked that Riku's family owned a limo.
"We've got science with Vexen-Sensei…don't we?" he asked.
You'd completely forgotten that Riku had been in your science class, let alone that science had been your first class!
"Oh, that's right," you said dumbly.
"See you around," he said as he walked ahead of you. You watched him as he went past the gates of the school and towards the grand steps that belonged to the high school's department. However, he stopped once he'd past the black metal gates and turned to look over at you. "Unless," he said, "You want to come along?"
2) What do you say as a reply?
a. O-Of course…!
b. Sure, if that's okay.
c. Uh, no. I'm fine going alone.
"O-Okay," you stammered, both happy and shocked that Riku had invited you to come along with him. Just two days ago, he'd been a total stranger (he kind of still was, but at least he was talking to you a little bit more).
As you walked beside Riku, you noticed that lots of students were watching both of you like ravenous vultures. It was like they were about to attack you or something. Riku took no mind of it, and kept his eyes in front of him. Was he oblivious of all the attention he got?
"Oh, who's that girl!? I always see her with Riku-san nowadays!"
"I think her name is 000. She's in my English class, I think."
"Since when did she come into Riku's life? She's only been here for two days, and now she's walking with him!"
It was kind of hard not to hear Riku's fangirls chatter away about you.
You and Riku walked up the steps and entered the school – to end up with even more stares and occasional glances from others. Was walking alongside Riku really such a big deal?
All this pressure was making you real uneasy, and it wasn't until then that you realized all your science books were inside your locker, since you hadn't been assigned any homework last class. This was perfect chance to break off from Riku and to escape the stares of doom.
"Uh, Riku?" you began in the most casual voice you could talk with.
"Yeah?"
"I, uh, forgot my science stuff. It's in my locker, so-!"
"I'll go with you."
"What?"
"I said I'll go with you." He stopped in the hallway and looked down at you with his usual unfazed expression. "Does that bother you?"
3) What do you say/think?
a. Uh, well, I wasn't expecting YOU to follow ME this time…
b. S-Sure! I don't mind! But…(Looks at all the people staring)
c. Um, okay. If you want to, I mean.
"Ah, no! It doesn't bother me!" you quickly replied. It's just that if Riku followed you, then the staring would continue. But you wanted to become friends with Riku, right?
You walked on ahead, with Riku following faithfully behind you. Stopping at your locker and opening it, you took out your things while Riku waited beside you, his back leaning against the hallway's wall. As people passed by, almost everyone couldn't help but steal a glance at the two of you.
When you'd finished collecting your things for class and shut your locker's door, Riku said, "So you've noticed, huh?"
"Noticed what?"
"What it's like to be stared at."
"W-Well, yeah. It's pretty annoying, actually," you admitted.
A small smile crept up onto Riku's face. "I try to ignore it," he said, leaning forward and standing up straight again. "Anyway, let's get to class."
"Right," and then you started to follow behind him.
"Hey," he started up again.
"Hm?"
He turned around and looked at you. "If you plan to walk around with me, you do know that you're going to be stared at a lot, right?"
"O-Of course," you stuttered. "But that doesn't mean I'm not going to walk with you."
His eyebrows arched in curiosity. "Oh?"
"I mean," you continued, "If you've gotten used to people staring at you, then I'm sure I'll get used to it, too."
He laughed softly, and seeing him relax in this manner seemed kind of strange. But you were satisfied that you'd made him laugh…for whatever the reason had been.
"If that's the case," he replied, "Then let's walk together more often."
4) What do you say as a reply?
a. Uh, I think I'll pass.
b. But I'm already walking with Roxas to school!
c. Sure! Of course we will!
"S-Sure, if you want to," you said, looking down at the ground with embarrassment.
Just then, Namine ran over to the two of you and gave her happy hellos.
"Good morning, 000, Riku," she said, looking at both of you when she said your name. "Where are you two headed off to?"
"Hey, Namine," Riku greeted back. "We're both going to science,"
"Oh, that's right!" Namine exclaimed. She looked at you and gave you one of her signature sweet-tooth smiles. "That's when I met you at the secretary's office, right?"
You nodded. That had only been two days ago, actually.
Riku looked over at the nearby clock that was glued to the school's wall near the water fountains. "We've got 5 minutes," he announced. He looked at you and Namine. "I'm gonna go ahead."
"Sure," both of you said. After all, you hadn't spoken to Namine that much yesterday.
Riku walked on ahead towards the science lab, while Namine and you chatted away about the new teachers. But then, after a good 2 minutes worth of gossip, Namine popped an important question to you.
"So, are you and Riku together?" she asked.
"W-What!?" This was a surprising question to come out of Namine.
Namine looked around at all the kids who seemed to be passing by casually. Then, she looked back at you. "I saw all the stares you and Riku had gotten when the two of you were walking together."
"I was just walking with him," you explained. "He said I could come along with him if I wanted to."
"Oh," she said, realizing that she'd made a mistake. "It seems I was jumping to conclusions, then."
"Y-Yeah…"
"Sorry about that," she said sweetly. "Well, I've got to get to Art class. Ms. Larxene will probably stab me with colored pencils if I'm late."
"That doesn't sound too good!" you said.
"It doesn't, does it?" she laughed. "Well, see you at lunch!" and then she was off and running down the hall towards the art studios.
'That was awkward,' you thought to yourself as you walked the opposite direction Namine had and went to your first class.
5) What do you think of Namine's question?
a. Maybe she likes Riku, too?
b. She always likes to talk about couples. Maybe she was just curious.
c. I hope Namine doesn't think that I like Riku. Because I don't!
-X-X-X-X-X-
As soon as you'd entered Vexen's classroom (he still hadn't arrived yet) you were greeted by the instant chattering of classmates. But as you walked over to your assigned seat that was behind Riku, you couldn't help but overhear snippets of the upcoming assembly.
"Did you hear that those three girls are gonna perform for the opening ceremony!?"
"Really!?"
"Yeah! They're so talented!"
"Oh, and what about that hot valedictorian guy? What was his name again?"
"Oh, you mean Roxas's older brother? Yeah, he's pretty hot!"
"I KNOW!"
So there was going to be a concert for the opening ceremony AND Roxas's older brother was hot in most of the girls' view. Hn.
"Hey," you said to Riku as you took your seat behind him.
He looked up from reading something and turned around. "Hey," he replied back.
"What's all this talk about the assembly?" you asked him.
"The Principal rarely holds assemblies," Riku explained. "It's quite rare whenever we have one."
"Oh. Well, what's all this gossip about Roxas's older brother? I've been hearing it all around the classroom,"
At this question, Riku paid more attention to you and closed his book and put it on his desk. "Roxas's older brother?" he asked.
"Yeah. Who is he?"
"He's an upperclassman," he answered. "A junior."
"Okay. But what about his name-?"
Just when you were about to find out Roxas's brother's name, Vexen stepped into the classroom and everyone scurried to his or her assigned seat.
"Good morning, students," he began in his usual nasal and annoying voice. "Since today's first two classes are cut short, we'll have to be rushing to get our first lesson done."
Some students groaned at this, since they'd have a hand cramp for the rest of the day. Taking down lots of notes was the worst thing that a student could have at the beginning of the day. Vexen shot a deadly look at the class, and all the groans and moans immediately stopped. Looks like he didn't take any whines.
"The first unit will be about DNA," Vexen said. "And since our class is shortened for today, on Friday we will do an experiment,"
'Oh, today's already Wednesday,' you thought to yourself. Time had passed by so quickly; you'd forgotten to count the days.
"DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid," Vexen started to lecture. "Now, as for the make-up of DNA, it is made by strings of nucleotides, which are…"
By the time Vexen has finished his first sentence, it had already bored many of the students in the classroom. Including you. You peeked over Riku's shoulder, and noticed that even he was bored, too. You saw him reading the same usual book he'd read in just about every class. The only thing was that he had a book-cover on it, so you couldn't see exactly what he was reading.
6) Any guesses as to what Riku's reading?
a. Hentai, of course. That dirty little Riku!
b. Uh…the dictionary? Maybe that's why he's so smart…
c. Hm…actually I don't really know. Maybe I should ask him about it.
Since you didn't want to get caught in trouble with Vexen, you leaned back in your seat and stared at the blank whiteboard. Vexen was just rambling on about DNA, and nobody seemed to be paying attention. Hopefully there wouldn't be an exam soon.
You decided to space out and think about the upcoming assembly. Since so many people were talking about it, it must be pretty amazing, right? And since you were curious, you secretly hoped that you'd get to meet Roxas's older brother. You were dying to know who exactly this guy was. When you were about to guess what Roxas's brother's name was, you heard a shrill cry and you looked up to see Vexen pointing at Riku…again.
"YOU AGAIN!" he snarled. "You're not paying attention in my class!!"
Riku looked up from his book that had been settled on his lap.
"Yeah," he admitted. "And?"
"I WARNED YOU LAST CLASS THAT YOU'D BETTER PAY ATTENTION!" he screeched.
"But I'm multi-tasking," Riku explained in a leveled voice. His voice was incredibly calm, compared to Vexen's loud and angered voice.
"Oh!?" Vexen cried. "Well, then if you're "multi-tasking", then why don't you answer my question?"
"Fire away," Riku said with a grin. If it was a challenge, Riku wouldn't pass it up.
Vexen flinched at Riku's overconfidence, but continued on with his question, "What's the name of the method when DNA copies itself?"
"Replication." Riku answered plainly and simply.
"Hey, but we didn't even learn that yet!" hissed one of the boys that was sitting next to Riku. He was talking to his other pal that was beside him.
"O-Okay then," Vexen said, a little shocked that Riku had gotten his answer correct. "Well, how about the name of the method of producing gametes?"
"Gametes!? What the hell are those!?" a boy asked you who was sitting next to you.
You shook your head. You honestly didn't know what those were, either.
"Meiosis," Riku said, crossing his arm and laying back in his seat as if this was all child's play to him.
Vexen was getting annoyed with all of Riku's answers being right. He'd wanted Riku to stumble upon an answer that he didn't know, just so he could give Riku a detention. But unfortunately, Vexen's plan wasn't going too well, since he knew all the answers…
"Okay, fine! This is the last question!" Vexen yelled.
"Bring it on," Riku replied with a smug smile.
"What makes up a nucleotide!?"
"Simple," Riku said. "A sugar, – also called deoxyribose, but in the case of a RNA nucleotide, then the sugar would just be called "ribose" – a nitrogen base, - and the four different nitrogen bases are adenine, guanine, thymine, and cytosine – and a phosphate group, which – along with the sugar – makes up the backbone of the DNA." Riku raised an eyebrow with his arms still crossed. "Does that suffice your answer?"
Vexen was blown away and his jaw was wide open with shock. He had to grip the sides of his desk in order to keep himself standing.
Some kids were baffled by Riku's knowledge, and stared at him stupidly. Some students even wrote Riku's little speech down, since what he said was most likely correct.
7) What would you do after Riku's smart answer?
a. I'd copy it all down!
b. I'd roll my eyes and sigh. Then, I'd think, "What a smart aleck…"
c. I'd just stare into space like I always do…
The bell rang right on the dot, and class was over early, since the assembly would cut into some class-time.
Vexen was like a frozen statue, and didn't say a "good-bye", or didn't even assign any homework (luckily). Everyone weaved through the rows of desks and filed out of the classroom, anxious to get second block over and watch this new concert, as well as see some "cute upperclassmen" apparently.
Riku, along with you, walked out together.
"Wow, Riku," you gasped. "That was amazing!"
"Not really," he said modestly. "It was a pretty easy answer, anyway."
'Er…not really,' you thought to yourself.
"Anyway, I'll see you around," Riku said, raising his hand as a wave good-bye, and headed off towards his second block.
You had art next, didn't you? And that meant that Roxas would be there. And if Roxas was there, then you'd get to know more about his older brother…
Running down the hallways towards the art studios, you didn't notice that you'd just bumped into a girl that had been rushing as well.
"Oof!" she cried as she instantly fell down onto her rear end.
You were in too much of a rush, but you decided to stop and apologize, as well as help the girl up from the floor.
"S-Sorry about that!" you cried, as you extended a hand out to help her up. "I was in a hurry…"
The girl smiled and looked up at you and took your hand. "Hee, so was I," she grinned. She hoisted herself up with a little effort; she didn't really need your hand, but she'd taken it anyway.
She had blonde hair that was tied up in a tight ponytail, and a few small braids that had beads entangled in them were scattered across her head. She seemed like a pretty friendly girl that could do great hair makeovers.
"Hey, I haven't see you around here," she said, scrunching up her face in confusing. "Who are you?"
"Oh, I'm 000," you said.
"000? Okay, then." The girl looked around the hallway, and then her green eyes brightened, as if she'd just realized something. "Oh, that's right! I'm in the SOPHOMORE hallway!" She snapped her fingers to emphasize her new revelation. "No wonder I didn't know you!"
8) What do you think of this girl?
a. She seems really friendly! I wonder what her name is?
b. A bit ditzy, isn't she?
c. She sounds like she's pretty outgoing! I wonder if she knows Sora and gang?
"Um, so you're not a sophomore?" you asked.
"Huh? Oh, no, I'm not. I'm a junior!" She smiled when she mentioned "junior", as if it made her higher-ranked than a lowly sophomore. "The name's Rikku! Pleasure to meet you!"
"Rikku?"
"Yeah." She said with a cheery smile. She looked down the long sophomore hallway, and leaned back and forth. Was she looking for someone?
"Uh, 000, I gotta go!" Rikku said impatiently. She seemed in a hurry, since she was bouncing on one foot to the next. "Yunie and Paine are gonna chew me up if I don't get down to the theater!" She started to run down the hallway, and didn't forget to wave at you as she ran off. "See you at the assembly!" she yelled with a wink. And then she was gone.
9) What do you think?
a. Rikku's here! And so are Yuna and Paine! COOL! I want to meet them!
b. Rikku sounds cheerful as always. I wonder when I'll meet her other friends.
c. Oh, does that mean I get to sit with Rikku, Yuna, and Paine at the assembly?
"Um…bye?" you mumbled. Rikku was already flying down the hallway and veering around the hallway's corner. She sure was fast.
-X-X-X-X-X-
You'd managed to find the art studios in record time (it WAS right across from the cafeteria, though. It was kind of hard to miss…). You glanced at all the exhibited artwork that was being displayed in the hallways of the art studio. They belonged to senior and junior students, and you'd envied their works.
Now that you'd arrived just in front of Larxene's room, you slid the door's screen open and stepped in…
…Just to be knocked down by a person who wasn't looking and was exiting Larxene's art studio.
(A/N): Wow, so if you knock someone else down, then someone will eventually knock you down, too!
10) What do you say/think?
a. Ouch!
b. Can you please watch where you're going?
c. Ah! Sorry!
The guy who'd knocked you down instantly dropped the large cardboard boxes he'd been carrying and helped you up onto your two feet.
"Sorry about that," he apologized. "I guess I wasn't looking…"
"Oh, it's okay," you said, shaking your head. Then, you looked up at him, and you couldn't help but not gape and stare.
The first thing you noticed about this guy were his eyes. They were a mixture of blue and green, making some kind of teal, sea-colored-eye-effect. And then there was his pale skin, as well as his spiky blonde hair. But those eyes…
"Uh…hello?" the guy said, waving a hand at your face. He was kind of worried, since you were standing still and staring up at him like a puppet. "Are you okay?"
You snapped out of your daydreaming and returned back to reality. "Oh, yeah, I'm fine," you said nervously. "Perfectly fine, yes, yes, yes."
Your chattering and constant repeat of "yes" made him back away. "O-kay then," he said, turning around to start picking up the boxes again.
"Hey, 000!" another blonde boy said as he walked over towards you. "What's up?"
"Oh, hey Roxas," you said.
Once you'd said Roxas's name, the guy that was in front of you stopped picking up a box mid-way and put it back down and turned to look over at you and Roxas again.
"Roxas?" the guy repeated.
Roxas turned when he'd heard his name and his eyes widened when he saw who it was.
"Oh…hey…" Roxas replied, though kind of shocked that he'd see this guy around in an art studio.
"Do you have class now?" the guy asked, now standing up straight and ignoring his cardboard boxes.
"Y-Yeah," Roxas said, nodding.
You looked from Roxas to the guy, and then back at Roxas again. Now that you thought about it, Roxas DID look like this guy. They both had blue-colored eyes (though the other guy's eyes had a green tint), blonde hair, and that same kind of wacky and spiky hairdo…
Roxas looked over at you, and had forgotten that he hadn't introduced his acquaintance.
"Oh, sorry, 000," he said embarrassingly. "You're probably a little lost here,"
"Um, yeah…" you sighed sheepishly.
"This is Cloud," Roxas said, nodding at the guy. "…My older brother."
11) What do you think?
a. AH-HA! I KNEW it was Cloud all along!
b. CLOUD IS HIS BROTHER!?
c. …Figures…
"O-Oh!!" you exclaimed, looking at Cloud, who was also looking at you blankly.
"Nice to meet you," Cloud said, holding out a hand in a polite manner. "You're…000, right?"
You nodded and took his hand and shook it. It was as if you were shaking hands with a movie star or something.
"Cloud's a junior," Roxas explained. "I don't see him that often around the sophomore area,"
"Yeah, well the assembly called for some ribbons and banners to be put up," Cloud answered back. "So the student council picked me to go and get them," he pointed at the cardboard boxes that were behind him.
You were still shocked that THIS guy was Roxas's older brother. He looked a lot like Roxas, but so different at the same time. How was it technically possible that two similar, yet different guys were brothers…?
"Well, I'd better be going," Cloud finally said, taking the huge boxes into his strongly-built arms. "The assembly's gonna start in less than an hour, and I've got to get this things hung up."
"Do you need help?" Roxas asked, looking over at his brother as you and he stepped aside for Cloud to pass by.
"Nah," Cloud said while holding the heavy boxes. "I've already got Leon and Tifa to help me out."
"Oh…"
"Well, see you around," he said to both of you.
But, when Cloud started to head out from the art studio, some of the art students from your class came into the art hallway and saw Cloud coming towards them.
The girls that were in your class all stopped like deer caught in a headlight and gaped at Cloud, just like you had done the first time you'd laid eyes on him. Cloud just passed by, as if nobody was staring at him at all, and just like he'd arrived, he'd left silently.
When Cloud was out of earshot, some of the girls looked at one another and nodded.
"Wasn't that Cloud?" one girl asked another.
"Yeah, I think so!" the other girl replied.
"Isn't he cute?" a third girl exclaimed.
"Yeah!" agreed another girl. Then, she looked over at Roxas and asked in a loud voice, "Why can't you be more like your older brother, Roxas?"
"M-Me?" Roxas said, shocked at this question and pointing at himself. His face flushed out of embarrassment, and he looked down at the ground. "W-Well, I…"
12) How would you respond to this girl's comment about comparing Roxas to Cloud?
a. That's kind of mean to say! I mean Roxas and Cloud are two different individuals!
b. Well, Cloud DOES have the upper hand. But that doesn't mean that Roxas sucks.
c. It's not entirely true. You can't compare Roxas and Cloud!
d. Um…I agree with the girl. Sorry, Roxas.
"You'd totally be cuter if you were like your brother!" agreed another girl who was nodding.
"Yeah, I might even start liking you if you were like Cloud!" another girl shouted.
Roxas blushed and didn't know what to say. (But it's not like he needed more fangirls, anyway).
You couldn't take any more of their trash and decided to put your foot down. Roxas couldn't take this kind of crap from them, could he?
"Hey!" you said, which made all the girls who were making fun of Roxas look at you with wide eyes. "Roxas and Cloud are two different people! You can't expect someone to act like another person!"
This immediately shut all the girls up.
Roxas looked up and over at you with surprise as well. He hadn't expected you to stand up for him, even if he was a guy that should've defended himself.
The door to the art studio swung open, and a loud crack of lightning came from inside the room.
"HEY!" yelled a voice from inside. "Where the hell are my students!?"
Everyone jumped at the sound of this voice and instantly rushed inside. Nobody had noticed that the bell had run five minutes ago, and if they didn't get inside the class soon, they'd all be toast…literally!
You walked over to the door as well, once most of the other students had filed in.
"Hey, 000," Roxas piped up from behind you.
You turned around to face him. "Yeah?" you asked.
"Uh…thanks," he said shyly. "I mean, for what you did just a few seconds ago."
You gave him a smile. "Anytime, Roxas."
To Be Continued…
