Echo flopped down in a seat next to Beast Boy and sighed as she waited for their teacher to appear.
"Hey Echo.." BB began then paused before continuing his hard-to-phrase sentence "How're you liking being here so far?" he wanted to say; do you like me so far. But he couldn't say that to her!
"It's great" she replied with a smile "I've met some great people already and the classes seem....well, at least the desks are comfy enough to sleep on when I get bored"
BB had to laugh at this. The sarcastic girl seemed to always be able to make him smile at least.
"Anyways, there's something I wanted to know" Echo said softly "What're your powers? Excuse me for sounding dim ifit's really obvious"
"I can turn into any animal I want" he replied proudly "How about you?" Now this would be interesting...
"I cant explain it, I'd have to show you" she replied simply. Everyone else was preoccupied with their own conversations and so Echo smirked, stood up and closed her eyes. When she opened them again they were pure black and a conversation could be heard loudly even though Beast Boy knew that the two speaking were not ever in that class
"You can pick up conversations that far away?!" he asked, stunned.
"And thoughts, if I try I could probably read Robin's mind from here, even though he's in Chemistry" Echo shrugged, her eyes returning to their natural state and she sat back in her seat "I have one other power which I'll show you after this class"
"Cant wait" BB replied sincerely. Wow, this girl was so unpredictable! He'd never have been able to guess her powers! They were awesome.
"Right class, settle down" came the bright voice of their teacher. Mr Dawson was just out of being a student himself but was an amazing teacher if you really wanted to learn about drama. "Today we're trying scenes from Twelfth Night"
Too easy, Echo thought with a grin.
"Has anyone here ever read this play?"
Echo's hand raised slighly into the air, the only person in the class.
"Echo, isn't it?" the teacher replied, gaining a nod from his new student.
"Alright then, care to read the part of Viola?"
Once more she nodded and got to her feet, taking the script he offered her and flicking through to a good scene.
"Beast Boy, how about youm read the part of Count Orsino?"
Beast Boy gulped, feeling nervous for once in his life. None the less he got up and found the same scene as Echo.
The English actress smiled; this was going to be interesting!
