Thanks, LolliPopsAreTears! I'll turn it into a DioxLavie, and ClausxLoki, but the ClausxLoki won't happen till some couple of chapters later. Thank you very much Lafiel!

Chapter Five: Off to Duatuis High

After watching the sun set, I decided to search for something of great importance to me, my violin. It was a normally shaped violin, and on the back, in neat engraving it said, 'Long life the Ayo family.'

"Where is it?" I looked in my closet, but it wasn't there. "I know under my bed." I went on all fours, and looked under my bed. "I found you!" There in its blue case was my violin, my most prized possession. "Now, to find my--" I pulled out something next to the case a backpack, and a suitcase. "Thank God we're given the option to live in the dorms."

I pulled the violin case, the backpack, and the suitcase. I decided to live in the dorm, as well as everyone else. Alvis was starting her freshmen year at the high school we went to. The high school was called Duatuis High, it specialized in van ships and science, along with some other stuff. I got up from the floor and grabbed my things. I had planned ahead weeks ago, so I wouldn't be in a rush.

I walked slowly from my room and noticed something, my plant Bob. 'I can't leave without.' I thought, 'Alvis would kill me if I did.' With that I balanced out how I would carry these things. I finally got the hang of things, and without any delay I walked out of my room, closing the door. 'Breakfast,' I thought.

"Crap," I said under my breath. "I have to make breakfast today." I don't like to cook at all, but I don't want to eat Lavie's cooking. It's okay and everything but there's something about it I don't like. "Well, off to the kitchen."

I ran to the kitchen. Everything was quiet, there was noise in the house. 'So no one's woken up yet, I wonder why?' I put the violin case, the suitcase, and the backpack on the floor, the pot I placed on the table. I opened the refrigerator and grabbed a couple of eggs, a gallon of milk, a block of cheddar cheese, some butter, and some other ingredients used to make some omelets, and pancakes. I grabbed a small kitchen knife and began to chop some green peppers, red peppers, and some onions, not to mention sausages. Then, I warmed the pan on the stove, and lightly put some oil on top of it so nothing would stick to the pan.

"Crack," I sang cracking the eggs, "mix, stir, then it's ready to eat!" I sang most of the time thinking that time would go faster, meaning I could get things done. "It looks ready," I looked at the omelets and placed them each on a different plate. "Bread, that's what I'm missing." I ran to the top pantry that was on the opposite side of the counter, and grabbed a stick of bread. "Rip," I ripped some big pieces and placed them on the plate.

I placed the food on the table, and then made some pancakes. They weren't that hard to make, it took about ten to fifteen minutes to make. In a matter of minutes everything was done, breakfast was ready to serve. 'Where is everyone?' It was now exactly five forty in the morning. I ran upstairs and opened Alvis' bedroom door; her room was painted in a light blue color. 'A normal room,' I thought. Alvis bed was right across from where I stood.

"Alvis," I said in a low tone, "wake up, school starts soon."

"Five more minutes," a voice answer from the covers, "I couldn't sleep last night."

I sat next to Alvis and pulled the covers off of her, "I made your favorite," I said in a sing-along voice.

"It's cold." She mocked the tone of my voice. "Lavie and Dio wouldn't shut up, and Claus was talking in his sleep, again." She sat up and rubbed her eyes.

"Well," I got and walked to the door, "now that you're up, get ready. Breakfast will get cold." I looked back at Alvis.

"Where you going?"

"I'm going to wake up everyone else." I said with a smile on my face. A pair of footsteps when down the stairs. 'Claus is the only one I don't wake up.'

She yawned in response. The bags under her eyes showed she didn't get that much sleep last night. Though she always did what she was told, sometimes other times she would protest. I left her room and closed the door. 'Off to wake up Lavie.' I walked to the other side of the hall, and pushed open Lavie's door. It had wallpaper, with red and black strips. 'Another normal room.' Lavie's bed was next to the corner of her room, the right one to be exact.

"Lavie," I whispered softly, "hurry up you're late for breakfast."

"Hhhmmmm…" the covers groaned. "I thought I had breakfast duty today."

"That was yesterday." I pointed out to her. "Now com--"

"I'm up," Lavie rose out of bed with her long red hair all messy, she was wearing a long nightgown.

I once saw a picture of her when she was fifteen, her hair was short, but for some reason she let it grow. It was now the same length of when she was younger. I noticed something on her neck, and it just made me stare.

"You got something," I moved my hand to my neck, "right about there."

"What?" she looked at me confused and then she walked to her mirror. "OH MY GOD!" she gasped in horror, more likely embarrassment. She looked back at me.

"Someone's been naughty," I laughed waving a finger, "I knew you liked him!"

Lavie's face grew red with embarrassment, "Loki!"

I laughed and couldn't stop. I found it funny, I never would of thought it would like that. Thought Lavie will have a hard time hiding that hickey. I felt an object hit me across the face.

"What the hell was that for?!" I rubbed my neck, it had cracked.

"Leave!" Lavie clutched a pillow tight with one hand. "I'm going to change."

"So much for a 'good morning,' I guess." I walked out of the room. Something whizzed close to my ear, it was a pillow. I looked back, "You missed!"

I never should have said that. I was on the floor within a matter of seconds. Lavie had good aim. She slammed the door. It may seem that Lavie and me don't like each other, but the truth is we're actually close. I had spent the whole last year with her, we became fast friends.

I got up and ran downstairs. Everyone else was downstairs making there morning drinks and eating. Claus, Dio, and Alvis were eating. Claus and Alvis were in their school uniforms, it wasn't mandatory to ware them though, even if it was private.

"Morning!" I said happily. I noticed that my stuff was on the floor, and I got pissed, but I kept my cool.

"Morning, yellow-eyes!" Dio said with some food in his mouth.

"Morning, sir."

"Morin'" Alvis said swallowing a piece of her pancake.

"Good morning, Al!"

"Morning." Claus said looking at me. I noticed he didn't say my name this time.

I smiled in reply to the gesture. 'I'm not hungry,' which is true. I didn't get hungry till about at twelve, or I would always have a midnight meal. I did have one yesterday, but it was fuzzy.

--

We were soon near the bus station, everyone got their stuff, amazingly I didn't forget anything We had decided not to go by van ship, because… To tell you the truth I didn't know why.

"So how is Dio getting into this again?" I asked for the fifth time to Lavie.

"The same way we got you in." Lavie said trying to cover the hickey.

"Oh, okay." I said feeling a bit better.

"What time is it?" Alvis asked for the second time.

"It's," I took out the pocket watch, " 7:45 a.m."

"Thanks."

Claus and Dio were quiet, after breakfast. I was wondering why, when I think I'm unaware of what's happening around me.

--

"We're here!" Alvis yelled getting off the bus.

Lavie and I hurried her up so she wouldn't miss the orientation they gave the freshmen each year. Lavie said it was a real bore, Claus had told me it was all right, but not a great as it should have been. Everyone has to go though, its wunedubar as the Germans say for wonderful, I think.

Today was a half-day, and we met up with old roommates, and all that good crap. I had to share a room with Tatiana Wisla, the van ship instructor, and Alister Agrew, this year. Since the freshmen class is the biggest, there are up to three people sharing the same room. 'Wonderful,' I thought. I ran up to my dorm and bumped into some familiar faces, my roommates.

"Miss Ayo," Tatiana greeted me. Being called Miss Ayo made me laugh.

"Hi, Loki!" Alister nearly squeezed the crap out of me. "How was your summer?"

"Hi, Miss Wisla," I said choking, "it was okay, Alister. How your guys summer?"

They told nothing new happened since last year. They're still the instructors for this school, so they can't complain, they told me the pay was good too, but they are tired of the same thing.

"School this year is going to suck," I blurted out, "I doubt I'll survive."

"Just pray for us!" Alister told laughed. "We're the ones teaching."

"Hey guys I think I'm gonna have a black--"

Everything went black; yeah this was the start of a new school year at Duatuis High.
