Chapter 3

We see a café. Honky Tonk was the name. The place where the Get Backers team was spending their nights till they got back, back to their normal ages that is.

RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGG!!!

"Zzz...zzz...zzz...zzz...zzz...zzz...zzz...zzz..." was what all was heard from the upstairs of the quaint little coffee shop, even though a very loud alarm clock went off.

Paul scratched the back of his. "Oh well, I better wake those guys up." He picked up two pans and went to the second floor of the shop.

CLANG!!!

"Unnn... Five more minutes Ban-chan...zzz...zzz...zzz..." Ginji rolled of his bed. "Ow!!!" The blond Get Backer rubbed his head.

The rest of the adult-turned-fourteen year olds got of their own beds.

"What's the big idea Paul!?!?!?" Ban yelled, him being in a mess. Then again, when is his hair not in a mess? The rest of them still had their ears were still ringing from the frying pan wake up call.

"You guys better take a shower; it's your first day at Natsumi's school. All of you better hurry up; uniforms and books are down stairs." And one hectic day is about to begin.

Five minutes after the announcement...

"Out of the way saru-moshi! I was here first!" Ban shoved Shido out of the way to the bathroom.

"No way snake bastard! It's going to take you forever to finish in there!" Shido retaliated Ban's move.

"Ban-chan, Shido-kun, I have to go!" Ginji was hopping around in his tare form all teary eyed out of desperacy.

"Ban-kun! Let Gin-kun use the bathroom! He can't hold it in forever!" Hevn intercepted Ban and Shido from attacking each other and let Tare-Ginji pass.

"Arigatou Hevn-san!" With that, Tare-Ginji bounded into the toilet to relieve himself.

Down stairs...

Paul put down the newspaper he was reading. "What is taking those guys so long?" BANG! "Not again..." Paul headed upstairs.

Back upstairs...

Flush...

"Ahhh... Your turn guys!" Ginji headed down stairs to get his uniform.

"My turn!" Ban disappeared into the little room with a sink and a bowl.

"Snake bastard!" Shido growled, hurling his fists toward the wall.

"This is gonna take a while..." Kadsuki went down to get his uniform. Guess I'll have to wait until we come home. sigh

Jubei and Emishi followed suit, they were going to be late if they didn't, at their first day of school too.

"This is a very interesting morning indeed." Akabane followed the others soon after.

Paul reached the second floor of his café. "Hey Ban, hurry up! Everyone's already done!"

"Alright! Alright! I'm comin'! Argh!" Ban shut the door behind him and went down with the rest of the Get Backers cast.

The bell of the café jingled. Ah, no more damages done for the day.

We view a group of nine teenagers, all walking up the street to Nayami 1 High School.

The boys uniforms consisted of a black blazer and pants and a white shirt, The girls were a white polo shirt with a blue striped collar and a black knee high skirt with a red and white line at the bottom. On each of their uniforms on the left chest was the emblem of Nayami High School, it was shaped like a blue upside down triangle edged with green and white borders. In the middle was the school's initials of NHS

"Hey Ban-can, what's high school like?" asked Ginji, as you already know, has never been to school.

"Ask Hevn, I've been home tutored by the obaba and Maria 2 since I was a kid." Replied Ban, truth to be told, he was pretty curious himself what this so called building with kids was like.

"Well, um... how do I start? It was the best time of my life, I always won most popular and most graceful and most likely to be a model awards!" Hevn flashed a proud smile to everyone. Poor Hevn, maybe she was a cheerleader? That would explain her status. Ban thought.

Probably, everyone else was also thinking what high school was like. As we all know, majority of them came from clans and never went to school; instead, they learned the art and technique of their families since they were children.

Akabane, Hevn and Himiko were a little bit different. Hevn was already working for the government since she was twenty one and quit after the destruction of the lab. Himiko was busy running away from the Voo Doo Child curse and learning from her anikii. As for the Jackal himself, nothing much was known about him except that he kills without mercy.

Again, watching from his perch was the mirror user Kagmi. He too had the outfit of the males as the group below. He had his own plans of observing them at school, the gods of Babylon City had already set up his school papers and was ready to do his job and be amused.

The group finally stopped in front of a huge gate and had the initials of Nayami High School. The school clock tower chimed, signaling the students to go to school and start class.

From Kagami and Akabane's point of view, one amusing was about to begin. They smirk simultaneously without the other knowing.
