Now to Then
Meeting of Difficulty
A tall teenager with a dark shade of blue hair and blue eyes entered the airport from the plane and saw his "little sister" Rena Landford. She was a bit short, thin, with a girly frame. She rushed at him and hugged him. They were actually cousins but the two considered each other brother and sister. He smiled only curving his mouth upwards slightly.
"Dias!! I'm so glad you're here!! You're going to have a fun time as a junior in high school and everything else!!" He looked at her. His eyes glowed slightly. Rena yapped away about how much he would like the states.
~~
Claude C. Kenni smiled brightly at the new high school. The morning sunlight brightly letting him see its splendor play upon the roofs of other buildings along with Nede High School. He sighed as he wondered at all the other teenagers. He saw a girl with blue short hair, wearing a skirt. She was cute and probably nice, but he didn't want to intrude on her since the femme teenager had her boyfriend around her arm.
Suddenly he bumped into someone!! A boy with soft brown hair, and green eyes looked at the fallen newcomer. Behind him another two sets of eyes followed. One of the two other guys had blue and black hair streaked with dark blue eyes, while the other one had orange and crimson hair spiked, and red vampric eyes. Allowing the brown boy to help him up, he watched him.
"Thank you, I am Claude Kenni." They stared in amazement. They're three different oculars not blinking. He stared back. 'Am I really that famous?' He thought as he scratched the back of his head. They're soon got over their surprise and mumble a few questions.
"Y..You're THE Claude Kenni?!" He nodded his blonde short lockes. "You really are?!" He nodded again. "Well, We're Ashton," The brunette pointed to himself,"Gyoro," the brunette pointed at the long blue-black haired boy," and Ururun Anchors," he now pointed to the spiky one. "We're triplets." He told Claude.
"That's nice to meet you guys, but would you guys know where my classes might be?" The blonde asked in earnest. The guy opened his hand. Claude put his crumpled up schedule on his palm. The Triplets looked over the green-eyed boy's shoulders.
"Lessee.You have Gym with Mr. Zell, Math 1 with Mrs. Okaru, I feel sorry for you., Mrs. Valentine for Science, She's pretty easy on people, Art with Ms. Jules, She's Celine's mom, so be good friends with Celine you can get great grades in her class, and lastly, Ms. Yukimazowa, for English.I feel for you if you talk in her class. Well, we have some of these classes with you." The three talked to the blonde simultaneously without even knowing it. The new kid just watched blinking. He never really thought that triplets did that.
"Um..Which classes are you guys with me?" They thought in unison, as Ashton handed over the schedule to him.
Gyoro answered first. "We all have gym together, I have math with you." Ururun cut in. "I have Science with you and HOT Mrs. Valentine!!" He howled at the blonde. Ashton and Gyoro gave him a disapproving glance then Ashton began. "I have art with you along with English."
The Bell rang before Claude could ask anything so he followed them to his class.
~~
Celine sat on the gym floor, alone as usual. She would smile at her best friend Rena and Precis, along with the ever-hunting-for-a-story Chisato and her stalker/ photographer Noel. It wasn't till she saw a pair of shoes at her feet did she glance up. A tall guy, make that very tall guy, stood in front of her.
"Are you the only other junior?" She nodded slowly as she stood up. He smiled briefly. Somehow he reminded her of a very old friend that she had met in Japan when she went there as an exchange student. He stared at her as she wiped the dust from the floor off her bum. She noticed he looked very Japanese-like and he was probably new here.
"Are you one of the new students?" She asked him. He nodded. "Where you from?" Her voice questioned. His blue eyes stared into her ruby ones. "I just wanna know because you remind me of a very old friend. "
"Japan. Osaka." She looked up her smile fading away to a thin line. She looked down at her feet and sighed in depression of having her hopes up. "Where did this friend live?"
".He..Lived in Kyoto, Japan. I went overseas there as a kid, and came back about six years ago. I was raised there." She answered as he smiled briefly and glanced her over. Now that he thought of it she did look a little like that girl that was his best friend. One of the main reasons he came to America was to see if she was here.
"What classes do we have together?" He asked in an indifferent voice. She looked up and smiled at him. It reminded him of that girl's smile. She handed her hand out as he placed his schedule into her palm. She looked over at him, then back to the paper.
"You've got the wrong schedule. This schedule is for a freshman named Claude C. Kenni.They probably got yours and his mixed up by accident." She told him as he searched for Rena who was talking to another new guy. "Is she your sweetheart?" Celine asked a little hurt in her voice that he didn't detect.
"." He shrugged it off as he went over there. Celine angered silently that he didn't answer her 'hmphed' and sat back down in her lonesome area. Rena looked away from the new boy and waved at Dias. The tall teenager didn't wave but came towards her.
"Rena..Do you know a Crawd C. Kenni?" He asked her. She nodded her head. "I've somehow got his schedule instead of mine at the office." She took his schedule and gave it to the blonde guy she had happened to be talking to.
"Here Claude. This is your schedule." He nodded his thanks. She looked upwards toward Dias smiling. "Dias, this is Claude C. Kenni, the son of that famous movie star!! Claud, this is my cousin from Japan, Swordmaster Dias Flac." She told the two as the two eagerly shook hands.
"Okay CLASS!!!" Mr. Zell Dinct bellowed while Mrs. Valentine followed. It was known school-wide that Valeria and Zell had just gotten married. Chisato stood up, notebook in hand as usual, followed with her photographer, Noel. Noel had very short bushy brown hair, and he never opened his eyes. He didn't answer about his heritage neither. Some thought he was Korean, others Vietnamese, all they knew was that even Chisato Madison, who had been the bestest of friends with him since infancy, never even once saw his eyes.
Chisato had long red, like her other companion Tala, just not wavy or curly like hers or as long. It only went to her shoulders and was held up by a blue headband. The reporter novice had light blue eyes, and her hair was fire engine red instead of the maroon red of Tal's. That and she kept a mechanical pencil behind her ear at all times.
"Mr. Zell, Is it true that you and Ms. Valeria had just gotten married three months ago? Are you expecting anytime soon for a child? Did you two move in together?" Tala, who sat on the other end of the gym hitting Angel for rude comments, laughed her butt off. Chisato would do anything to get higher in the newspaper staff and try her best to get out of gym. She never liked gym since she was so clumsy.
"Chisato Madison, Sit down before I get the newspaper staff to kick you off along with Noel Chandler." He told her firmly, as Chisato sat down along with Noel. Dias sighed and sat down near Rena, and Celine. From then Gym started its course.
"Okay, Everyone!! We're going to be playing soccer today. It's the boys versus the girls. Celine Jules, You're the girl's captain, and ..Dias Flac!! You're the boy's captain." The teacher told them. Celine and Dias looked at each other simultaneously. It couldn't be.could it? They thought, then both shook their heads slightly and went to their gender-groups and began to organize.
"Precis, You're Goalie, Rena, You're on my other side. Chisato, you're next to Rena, and Tala, you're Precis's guard. Okay?" They all nodded at her instructions, considering that she had been the girl's soccer captain for at the least five years if not six. Getting onto their positions in the gym, the girls smirked at the guys who were in identical positions.
Claude being in behind and to the side of Dias, Noel off on the sidelines, Ashton being goalie, Angel was the goalie protector, and Gyoro on the other side of Dias. The two captains stared hard at the others eyes, as the whistle blew, Celine's leg jammed out first and got the ball. She ran pass Dias who quickly caught up, and followed her.
Celine knew she couldn't pass it to anyone or Dias would get it, so she tried something new. She switched the ball around, and quickly ran towards her team's goal. The guys smiled and chased her, and the girls were telling her she was aiming at the wrong goal. Celine popped the ball high in the air and kicked it towards the guys. The girls who now understood what she was doing hurriedly ran to her side as Precis and Tala stayed behind.
Claude ducked before the ball hit him, and Gyoro dodged before it hit him. Dias caught it with his chest as hit it up with one of his knees. Celine jumped up, hitting the ball towards Rena with her head, as Dias knee came up and crashed into her diaphragm. She fell off his knee and onto the ground, catching her breath as she caught up and started running once more. Dias stared bemused with her action as he watched the game almost as if he was somewhere else.
The girls' team had won due to Celine's risky move that could have put her out of class. Celine who was being congratulated by the guys and girls couldn't help but notice that two of her ribs felt broken as she walked trying to breathe better than she was. As soon as class let out and everyone had changed back to their normal clothes, Celine tried her best to walk to the nurse's office but somehow the short walk seemed too blurry to even see the door.
"You need help." The tall junior told her. She looked up, whimpering as she tried to walk forward, but his arm caught her before she fell. She tried struggling but realized it hurt too much. "Don't move, you may have punctured a lung." He picked her up with ease and held her gently as he walked her to the nurse's office. "That was a riskful move. Why did you do it?" She smirked at his compliment as she answered distastefully.
"Because you made me mad. People who don't answer a question when asked are very mean and just..mean." She glared at him the best she could but her eyes wouldn't focus. They had entered into the nurse's room where he set her down on a bed. She tried getting up more than once to find Dias putting her down.
"Lay down and stay down." He told her. He had seen too many of his students get hurt from sword practice, be too prideful and try to get back up only to find that he pushed them right back down. "I'll be right back." He forced her down once more before he left the office to go see the lady at the front.
The lady at the front had five phones, a laptop, and a fax on her wide desk. She held herself as a busybody and continued her work not noticing the junior.
"Excuse me, Miss." She looked up and saw it was he. Before he could open his mouth to continue she cut him off.
"Mr. Dias Flac? Am I correct?" He nodded. "Here's your schedule, apparently I gave you the wrong one, yesterday. " She handed him a piece of paper with his schedule on it, then went back to answering phones.
"Ma'am. When is the nurse coming to the office?" He asked her. She looked up irritated. Her glare didn't phase him nor did he notice it at all as he waited patiently for her answer.
"Look, The nurse is only here on Wednesday. Today is Thursday. She won't be here for another week almost." He nodded his thanks and then went back into the nurse's office.
