Chapter 3: so THIS is school
As duo woke up the next morning, the alarm clock broken on the floor from hitting it several times, duo got up and got up, from the uniform Serena's dad bought for him after he went to bed. As he put on his hat he got, there was a knock at the door and Serena ran in, grabbed duo by the wrist and began to drag him down the stairs. "What's the whoa!" duo shouted as they ran down the street as fast as they could. "We're going to be laaaaaaaaate!" Serena screamed. "this is the same way I met you yesterday! Watch out!" duo shouted as they ducked a tree. They finally made it to school, but after the bell rung. "Ah, man... not again. Third detention this weeeeeek!" Serena moaned. "Are you in track?" duo asked gasping for breathe. "No. I cant' run fast." Serena replied as they slowly walking into the doors. "Can't run that fast? It took you only 5 minutes to get here, RUNNING! What does it take walking? Half an hour? I am tired..." duo panted. "Come on, if we're any more late, miss huruna will have our heads." Serena groaned. They walked up a flight of stairs and opened a door and walked in as the teacher, a tall, thin woman with brown, wavy hair and blue eyes with a maroon business outfit and white blouse.
"Serena! Late again I see, and who's THIS young man?" the teacher asked. "I know... this is duo Maxwell. New student." Serena explained. "Did you help him get here? Is that why you are late?" the teacher asked. Serena nodded vigorously. "Did she?" the teacher asked looking at duo. "oh, yea. She did, didn't' know where to go at all, and she showed me the way." Duo explained. "Very well. Serena, please sit. Class, this is duo Maxwell, a new student. Please give him a warm welcome!" the teacher shouted after a silence. People automatically clapped. "What's with the hair dude!?" one voice called. "yes. Tell us about yourself Mr. Maxwell." The teacher asked politely. "my name is duo Maxwell, I came from a sacred, and secret place, which I am unable to share, my hair is a sacred ritual that I cannot explain either. I'm 15, and this is my first time at school. Ever." Duo explained. "Wow. Very interesting." The teacher said smiling. "You may sit next to Serena now." She added. Duo walked down the isle, missing a foot that was trying to trip him and sat down next to Serena. "That was different than the last time you explained." she whispered. "I know. I don't know what to as. It's just like that cause it is." Duo whispered back.
"oh... ok. Cool." Serena whispered back. In the middle of the class, duo was woken up from slumber by a ruler hitting his head several times. "This is not expectable young man! ESPECIALLY IN MY CLASS ON YOUR FIRST DAY!!!!" miss haruna screamed from the top of her lungs. Duo had his hand behind his head trying to laugh it off. "Outside, against the wall. Don't move don't talk, don't sit." She snapped. Duo walked out the door looking at Serena trying to stay up as well. he leaned against the wall and sighed. "So this is hat school is like. Boring, and painful." Duo said to himself as he felt his head creating a little bump from the metal ruler. "I wanna go home." Duo moaned as he fell to the ground and fell asleep again. As the bell rung, waking duo up, duo darted up as miss haruna came out to look at him. Serena came out and grabbed duo's arm as they made their way to the outside courtyard. "Now, it's lunch time! and I forgot mine..." Serena remembered. "no biggy. Lita probably has some for both of us." Serena chimed. "Great. I'm starved." Duo said as they met up with Lita, ami, and mina. "Where's raye?" duo asked not seeing her. "She goes to another school. As does rini and darian." Serena explained looking at Lita with puppy eyes. "Here." Lita said flatly. "And, here's your." Lita said seeing duo without one. "thought you wouldn't have one with Serena by your side..." Lita explained. "Thanks." Duo said smiling. "Thanks Lita. You're the coooolest!" Serena said as she ate a huge rice ball. "did you make this all by yourself?" duo asked. Lita nodded. "Wow. You're a great cook." Duo said as he ate the rest of a sandwich. "Thanks." Lita replied pleased. "So duo... do you by any chance... have a girlfriend? Not that its any of my business..." mina asked looking at him. "you know... you're the second person that's asked me that." Duo explained. "I am?" mina asked startled as she stared at Serena.
"Yea. You and rini." Duo explained. "RINI?!" mina asked growling. "What?" duo asked looking at her. he was completely clueless about that. "Nothing. So do you?" mina asked. "no." duo replied. "Why?" duo asked. "no reason. Just curious." Mina replied. after lunch, they went back to class. This time to art. Duo had to draw and paint something on paper and paint it with oils. Without thinking, duo drew a great picture of his gundam and wrote deathscythe on it. "wow what is that?" Serena asked looking at it with interest. "it's my gundam." Duo explained. "oops." Duo replied. "A gundam?" Lita asked who was on his other side. "yea... uh, this huge machine that helps people from where I come from. 4 other guys have one like it, but it looks different." Duo explained. "wow. Neat." Serena said gaping at it. after he was done, he made another picture with the deathscythe hell on it. it got a detention for writing a cuss word, hell, in school. "The god of death will have your head for excusing me from the artwork of one of his worshipers." Duo muttered as he was sent to the headmaster.
As he walked down the hall, looking for the headmaster's office, he saw a kid holding a MP-5N Heckler to a teacher smiling, as the teacher, petrified in fear. "Hey! What are you doing!?" duo asked walking up to the kid with black hair and green eyes with a mischievous smile. "get out of her dork, before I kill you too." The kid barked. The teacher gasped. She couldn't move, or speak. "Why don't you pick on someone your own size." Duo smirked. "Finally something I am good at." He thought to himself as he walked up to the kid. "Stay where you are." The kid snapped. Duo stopped and looked at him. "Why are you going to shoot her anyways?" duo asked. "Because. She gave me an F on my report card!" he kid yelled shaking the gun as he shouted it out looking at the teacher. "You didn't do your homework." The teacher replied in a small, weak voice. "Shut up!" the kid barked swinging the gun to point at the teacher. "I should really get rid of you!" the kid shouted as he looked where duo should have been, but he wasn't. the kid looked around. "Where the hell did he go?" the kid asked pinning the teacher down with her shoulder and swaying the gun in every directing ready to kill if duo decided to strike.
All of a sudden, duo hit the kid in the back of his neck, grabbing the gun easily as the kid fell over and stared at duo look at the gun. "wow. A recoil operated which has a unique delayed roller locked bolt system, a retractable butt stock, a removable suppressor, and illuminating flashlight integral to the forward hand guard. And the flashlight is operated by a pressure switch custom fitted to the pistol grip. WHOA! Great selection..." duo smiled to himself as the kid and the teacher looked more frightened than ever knowing that duo knew a lot about weapons and knew perfectly well how to use them. He unlocked it and pointed it at the kid. "It was locked? You were planning on shooting this teacher, and me, with a locked gun? Or were you just bluffing so she would change it?" duo asked as he took the gun apart. "Couldn't you try using a 9 mm or something. This thing is hefty and is not a good choice to kill at close range..." duo explained putting the gun behind his back between his back and pants. "Now I'm going to have to confiscate this and tell a teacher about what you've done. And I wouldn't think of moving either. I'm quick with movement and great at aim." Duo explained as the kid got up, but sat back down in fear.
Duo turned to the teacher. "Miss haruna!?" duo finally noticed. "Duo... thank goodness. I am so proud to see you." She replied hugging him. "You want to hold the gun so no one will think I did it?" duo asked. "I don't have my license with me." He added. "NO! you hold it. I'll explain everything." Miss haruna explained shaking. "Come along max. we are going to the headmaster, and you are defiantly EXPELLLED for this. Never in my life have I been threatened..." miss haruna hissed as she grabbed the kid, Max's, arm and dragged him literally, to the head master. Since duo had to go there, he followed. "his school is weird." Duo wondered as he thought of what all happened today. "Patricia! What happened?" a tall woman gasped. "I'm ok. This young man right here threatened me with an armed, weapon. Duo? What was it again?" miss haruna asked looking at duo. "It was locked!" the kid tried to defend himself. "It was a MP-5N heckler." Duo replied. "wanna see it?" duo asked the headmaster. She looked at him. Duo pulled it out, both pieces, and held it out. "miss haruna didn't want to touch it, so she told me to hold onto it till we got here." Duo explained. "Yes. He saved my life as well... and got the gun from max.
"wow. Very impressed. Are you by any chance duo Maxwell?" the headmaster asked. Duo nodded. "well, for your courageous doings, you will not receive any punishment for saying, writing, hell, on your artwork. Just don't do it again." She explained. duo smiled and nodded. "You will be noticed for what you did tomorrow, but you will have 5 minutes before school is over. You seemed to miss other classes, trying to find the way here I presume?" she asked. Duo nodded. "Very well. I will get you a map tomorrow as well, please be off." The headmaster explained. duo smiled and walked down the hall. "Hi ya duo! What happened? Detention?" Serena asked walking up to him. "No. met up with miss haruna being threatened by a kid holding a gun to her and got it, stopped her from dying, the usual and got freed for helping her." duo explained rather fastly as he put his sunglasses on from his pocket that he grabbed from the lost in found after washing them In the sink after looking around. "so. Is school always like this?" duo asked. "no. much more boring." Serena replied. "oh. Can't wait till tomorrow then." Duo said excitedly. "Yea. Me neither." Serena replied flatly.
As duo woke up the next morning, the alarm clock broken on the floor from hitting it several times, duo got up and got up, from the uniform Serena's dad bought for him after he went to bed.
