Chapter 13: The Return

Electricity coursed through the air, then a sudden flash. Jessy appeared in an alley, clothed in dress pants, a white dress shirt, a green coat, and a black backpack, his ears no longer pointed. 'It seems that I haven't worn a school uniform for a long time,' thought Jessy straitening the uniform and dusting himself off. He removed his backpack, opened it, and pulled out a piece of paper. He walked out of the alley, reading the paper as he went. Jessy already knew the way to the high school ', The name I'll be using is Alexander McLeod... McLeod is an awesome name.'

Jessy soon reached the school as he walked to the front door he earned himself many stares. He glanced backwards coldly, causing many of the people to look away, except for some familiar people. After entering the school he walked to the main office and walked up to the front desk. "Hello," he said to the secretary ", My name is Alexander McLeod, I'm a new student."

"You're in classroom 10B Mr. Shiro will be your teacher," responded the secretary without looking up from her work.

Jessy turned and bumped into someone ", Oh sorry," he said, looking up to see a familiar face. He dodged past Kayla and walked hurriedly to his class.

'Weirdo Baka,' she thought watching the emerald haired teen rushing away.

'That was close,' thought Jessy as he walked down the hall. Soon he reached classroom 10B, he leaned against the wall just outside the door as he waited for Mr. Shiro to let him in. A student ran up to the door, late for his class. 'It's Tai,' he thought ', shoulda known he'd be the type who's late for class.' Tai glanced at him, then stared at him for a moment, and finally he walked in the door. Jessy was nearly sweating ', I hope he was just staring at my hair or eyes.'

The door opened and a man with short gray hair stuck his head out and motioned for Jessy to enter the room. "This is our new student," said Mr. Shiro ", McLeod Alexander." There was a silence in the room, as everyone stared at Jessy.

Jessy bowed and muttered ", Please just call me Xander."

"Well Xander please go sit beside Sora," said the teacher pointing toward the red head. Jessy's eyes widened slightly, but not noticeably, Sora was sitting in front of Tai and Matt. "Oh wait, I forgot to give you your schedule," said the gray haired man, who handed Jessy a piece of paper with a table displaying the order and time of his classes. Jessy walked over to Sora and sat beside her.

"Hello I'm Sora, they are Tai and Matt," she said motioning to the two teens behind her ", nice to meet you."

"Whatever," mumbled Jessy studying his schedule with minimal interest. Sora gave him a odd, slightly angered look and turned back to her sheet.

Tai poked Matt in the arm and whispered ", Can you believe this guy, not only does he look weird but he's also a jerk."

Matt nodded ", He's a jerk sure, but don't say he looks weird," replied the blond.

Jessy leaned back in his chair and hung his head backwards looking at the two ", I can here you, ya know," he growled. Matt and Tai exchanged surprised glances.

Later, at lunch

Matt, Tai, Sora, Izzy, and Kayla all sat at a table eating together talking. "This new guy sounds pretty abnormal," commented Izzy.

"He probably wears contacts that make his eyes look that way and his hair has to be died," said Sora ", But he sure is a jerk."

"He didn't seem that bad," replied Kayla ", aside from being weird and a baka."

"Whatever," said Matt ", I just hope he doesn't cause any trouble in school."

As if on cue Jessy ran into the cafeteria, his ponytail flying in the air, closely followed by a few of the bigger senior football players. "FUUUUUUUUUUUUCK," Jessy swore in English, as he ran from the angry jocks, jumping over tables and chairs. Just as the jocks closed in on him, he jumped up onto Kayla and the others table and ran on top of it to the other end, he then jumped off and ran out a door on the other side of the cafeteria.

For a moment the only sounds were the jocks continuing to run after the saffron-eyed teen, then Kayla and the others got up and ran out the door, followed closely by some others.

As they got outside Kayla and the Digidestined saw that the jocks had caught up with Jessy and one of them was holding him while the others punched and kicked him. They were about to go help him, but he suddenly flipped the one holding him from behind over him and into the other jocks. "You guys are pathetic," he said in Japanese. He then continued to insult them in many different languages before running off again, jumping fences and dodging the attempted tackles.

Kayla and the others all stood there, slightly dumbstruck. "Well he may be weird and a jerk but you gotta admit he's got guts," said Tai, scratching the back of his head.

"Yeah," the others said all together.

After school

Jessy walked through the halls, his backpack slung over his right shoulder. 'This day has certainly been amusing,' he thought, grinning self- confidently. He walked out the main doors and out toward the end of the schoolyard.

"Leave me alone!" he heard someone cry out. Jessy raised a eyebrow and turned toward the direction where the noise came from. He looked around a corner of the school and saw a few guys picking on a girl with short spiky hair streaked bright blue.

One of the guys smacked her and said ", You freak you don't deserve to be left alone."

Jessy walked around the corner, unnoticed and, once he was only a meter away from the closest guys, said ", You like picking on freaks do ya?" the guys turned their heads toward him glaring ", well I'm easily the biggest freak of all," he said.

The girl stared at him with wide eyes as the guys turned their attention to the emerald haired teen. "Heh, your that new kid," said one, who appeared to be the leader ", yeah I think it would be way more fun picking on you." The nearest guy threw a punch at Jessy, who caught the fist with his left hand and used his right fist to punch the guy in the gut. The guy fell over, the leader and the final guy both attacked him at once. Jessy jumped into the air and did a aerial roundhouse, hitting both his attackers across the face and knocking them out.

He kneeled down next to the guy he left conscience ", I advise you leave people that you deem 'freaks' alone," Jessy said ", because you have no right to judge them so," he paused ", and because I will kick your ass without a seconds hesitation." The guy nodded and Jessy turned to the girl, she was only about five feet tall and wore glasses that covered brown eyes. "Come on," Jessy said, offering his hand to pull her up ", your not going to be able to do whatever it is that you'd usually do after school down there."

The girl took his hand and he pulled her up ", Thanks," she said ", those guys pick on me all the time. Oh, my names Arisu."

"My names Alexander, but call me Xander," replied Jessy, brushing some dirt off his uniform. The two walked out of the school area, leaving the three guys lying on the grass.

"I like the color you died your hair," said Arisu suddenly, trying to start conversation.

Jessy chuckled slightly ", It's not died, there was a slight accident when I was younger, this is more or less my natural hair color."

"Oh," said Arisu ", I still like the color."

"Thanks," Jessy grinned.

"Where do you live? asked Arisu.

"A good question," replied Jessy, digging through his pockets for the sheet of paper. He studied it for a moment ", About three blocks from here," he said. He handed the sheet to her.

"This is the same building I live in," Arisu said, half-smiling.

'Their setting me up for something I know it,' thought Jessy, he looked at his new friend and said ", That's great, we can hang out."

"Sure," said Arisu.

They walked for a few more minutes talking about funny stories from their pasts. Soon they reached the apartment building, where they lived. It was a small, clean building. They took the elevator to the second floor where Arisu and her family lived. "Well see you tomorrow," said Jessy, turning back to the direction where the elevator was.

"Xander, do you want to walk to school with my friends and I tomorrow?" asked Arisu.

Jessy considered for a moment then smiled ", Sure, see you then." He walked over to the stairway and walked up to his floor. He reached the door with the numbers four thirteen nailed on, he grabbed the handle and turned it, pushing the door open he walked in.

"Hello Tenshi," muttered the saffron-eyed teen, glancing at his guardian angel who was missing her wings, glow, and white robe, which she had traded in for a long skirt and t-shirt, she nodded in response. Jessy looked at the demon that was to play his father ", Hello," he said ", what shall I call you?"

The demon stood, he had blond hair the fell over a red headband ", Reeve I'm insulted, have you already forgotten your roommate after such a short time?" he asked.

"Seth?!" exclaimed Jessy, recognizing the teen from his past life whom was now a man who appeared to be in his late thirties. Seth was still dressed in a sleeveless black shirt and baggy pants, his teeth looked normal due to his disguise and so were his ears. "You've definitely grown up," remarked the emerald haired teen ", how did you end up acting as my father?"

"It was asked of me to help a old friend," he explained ", I agreed and they took me back in time and to this dimension. While we were coming here I was told the whole story of who you are."

Jessy grinned ", It's good to see you," he looked at his guardians ", If you'll excuse me I've got some really easy homework to do." He gave them a mock bow and walked to his room. His room was rather small with a double bed, a desk, a small TV on top of a dresser, an amp and bass guitar, and a nice stereo system. Jessy turned on the stereo and began his homework.

The next morning

Jessy leaned against the wall on the outside of the apartment, flipping a coin between his fingers. Two teens walked up to the door and entered a number and when someone picked up the said ", Arisu we're here." Jessy looked at the two of them, one was a girl with long hair that was died red, purple, and yellow, she had light brown eyes, was about five foot seven, and was Japanese. The other was male, he had hair in ten three-inch spikes that was died orange, his eyes were green, he was about five foot ten, and didn't look Japanese.

Currently Arisu walked out the door, and smiled as she saw her friends. She spotted Jessy and said ", Hey Xander."

Jessy pocketed the coin, removed himself from the wall, and picked up his bag. "Hello Arisu," he looked over at the boy and girl and said ", these must be your friends."

"Oh yeah these are Conall and Naoko," she said ", guys this is Alexander."

"Pleased to meet 'cha, please call me Xander," said Jessy, bowing sarcastically to the two.

"The pleasures all ours," replied a smiling Conall with just as much sarcasm.

"Nice to meet you," said Naoko. She stared at Jessy for a moment then asked ", Hey aren't you the guy who was taunting the football team yesterday?"

Jessy smirked and nodded ", I'm also the guy who chased away some cocky bastards who were picking on Arisu here," he said pointing with his thumb at the short girl.

"Chase away?" she asked ", You totally kicked their asses." Conall raised an eyebrow, somewhat impressed and Naoko grinned and laughed.

"Not that I want to break up the discussion or anything but we're gonna be late for school," Conall spoke up. Together the four ran for the school.

A few weeks later

Jessy has adjusted to being Alexander McLeod, he had been hanging out with Arisu, Conall, and Naoko, and had been able to avoid the digidestined and Kayla. Currently the teen stood studying a poster ', Battle of the Bands, eh?' he thought ', All I need is a band, then we can practice a song or two for the month and a half until the show and I'm set.' He turned away from the poster and began to walk down the hall way to the cafeteria.

He reached the table where him and his new friends regularly ate and sat down next to Conall. "You guy wouldn't happen to know any people interested in starting a band and in need of a bass player would you?" he asked.

The three looked at him with surprise and Naoko spoke up ", We're interested in starting a band and we need a bassist and a singer."

Jessy smirked ", Excellent we can get together today and whoever has the drums house."

Conall grinned ", Okay then you'll all come to my house at five with your instruments."
