Chapter 3

"A Challenge for the heart of Royalty."

------------------

Papers are being thrown around. Teenagers are talking. Desks are quietly being move around the room. Where was the teacher? Sleeping in his chair. Everyone officially knew that he was going to be one of those 'Do whatever you want' teachers.

Richard was sitting on a desk for two. He was sitting next to Roy who was currently talking to this brunette haired girl name Yolie. Richard rolled his eyes behind his dark sunglasses and paid attention to the outside of the glass windows. He had nothing else to do but just stare at the boring day. Usually he would be avoiding Katherine but she wasn't in this class. He can't say he wasn't happy. No more nagging or the constant judging of other girls.

"Richard." Someone whispered loudly. Richard ignored the person not really wanting to talk to anyone. "Richard!" Someone whispered again only even louder. Richard gritted his teeth and angrily turned around.

"What!" He asked angrily to whoever was behind him. Terra Marvok blinked and pointed behind her. He stared past her, not even apologizing, and saw Victor smiling. "What?" He asked more calmly trying hard not to shout so, he wouldn't wake up the teacher.

Victor smiled at him. Richard was confused on why he had that smile on his face. Either he got a date already or something was up. "Look who's sitting with Bee." He said teasingly. Richard sighed and turned around. He scanned the room trying to find where the cheerleading captain, Bethany is. He finally saw Bee talking with the red head girl he saw earlier.

"So, you like what you see?" A boy questioned. Richard blinked and turned his head to his left to see Roy staring at him. He wasn't the best of friends with him as he is with Victor but he wasn't on his total bad side. Therefore, you could say he was just person he knows and chats with at time to time.

"Yeah, so what." Richard told him a bit angry for bothering him.

"Well I can't blame you." Roy told him as he stared at her. Richard shrugged and turned his attention away from him and onto what was the outside of the window. Roy finally stopped staring at her and turned his attention to Richard. "Aw, come on lets have a little challenge." Roy offered as if something you couldn't refuse.

"No." Richard said firmly still not removing his gaze from the outside of the glass window.

Roy smirked at what he said. "I guess you know who's gonna win already." Roy told him teasingly. Roy knew all to well that he was about to protest on who's going to win her.

Richard quickly removed his gaze from the boring life of the outside and onto Roy. He was challenging him to another of one their games. Richard can't say they weren't fun and Richard likes to prove him wrong. "Well, how long is it gonna take for one of us to get to her?" He couldn't believe he was going to do this again but a challenge is a challenge. If he refuses, Roy would tell everyone and that was something he didn't want to happen.

Roy studied her as if she was some sort of experiment. Richard looked at him and then at her. "I don't know. She's not like any other girl." Roy told Richard as he removed his stare from her and onto to the teacher who was mumbling something in his sleep.

Richard stared at her once again, wondering what Roy meant. "How?"

"She's not drooling over one of us, obviously." Roy said jokingly as he turned his attention to her and away from the teacher. Richard smiled. A few moments later, he finally answered. "This time there isn't a time limit." Roy announced. Richard nodded in agreement.

"What's her name?" Richard asked. If their going to have a challenge they should at least know the girls name.

"Dunno. That green freak interrupted before she said anything when I asked her." Roy told him as he thought back earlier. Richard shrugged, as he knew that Roy was starting to think of a way to 'accidentally' bump into her.

Richard tried to remember what the guys name was. He practically saw him everyday last year but he just couldn't remember. "Um…whats his name again…" Richard aloud which cause to Roy wonder as well.

"Gar?" Victor questioned as he stood in front of the two.

"Yeah, him." Roy said finally remembering.

"What about him?" Victor asked as he pulled out a chair from another desk and took a seat.

"She's friends with him." Richard told him as he pointed at the girl.

"Dunno why, she could be with us." Roy said in wonderment. Victor and Richard both nodded. The teacher finally woke up but he looked to be anything but happy.

"Class, sit down!" He angrily yelled. Everyone shut up, placed everything back in order, and took a seat. Now everyone knows is that he is one of those teachers that lets you do what you want but then blames their problems on the students.

------------

"No!" Gar shouted and everyone turned too look at him with confuse looks. He turned around to find Mr. Mod waiting for him to sit on his assign seat. "I'll seat anywhere but there!" Gar shouted once again.

Mr. Mod gave him a warning look as he pulled out s green sheet of paper to send him to the office. "Make up your mind, lad."

Gar looked at him and then at his seat next to her. He slowly walked towards his seat and sat down. Everyone watched him for a moment before he or she turned his or her attention back to Mr. Mod.

Gar sat down next to the most annoying person in the entire world. He turned to look at her. 'This can't be happening!' As if seeing her this morning was not enough.

Her blue eyes turned to him and had a disgusted look upon her face. "There are some rules when you sit next to me." She told him. Katherine a.k.a. Kitten glared at him. How she got her name? Well she was known to get into many catfights with girls. Mostly because they all were trying to steal Richard away. "Don't ever talk to me unless you see something on my face."

"Besides that huge zit on your nose." A familiar voice said behind Gar. He turned around to find Raven. Apparently, he forgot that she was in the same class that he was. Well what would you do if you were paired with Kitten? Kitten glared at them before she turned her attention to the teacher who was watching her.

"Now duckies let us begin learning History."

Kori grabbed her tray with her food and tried to look for a seat to sit down. She looked around. There were many tables and it seems as if everyone knows exactly where they should be sitting

'This is there second year of high school and some are even older.' Kori let out an aggravated sighed and took a walked past a few tables. Some girls giggling, boys talking about cars and what 'badass' thing they did over the summer, and girls and boys playing hard to get. There is much more but those are just a few. Kori past a table and took noticed that it consisted of Bee and the two boys from the morning.

Bee invited her to sit down with her today if she wanted today at class. She looked at them for a moment hiding behind a group of people who were standing and talking. Kori really didn't want to because she would feel uncomfortable sitting with people who are consider 'popular' and she would start getting insecure.

"Maybe Gar or Raven will be here." She said as she tried to reassure herself. Finally, she took a seat on one of the round tables by herself. She grabbed the plastic fork and started picking at her food. It didn't look good but she was hungry.

"You're actually gonna eat that?" A boy questioned curiously. She looked up to find a boy with black shoulder length hair laid his tray on the table and took a seat in front of her. She looked at him and nodded.

"There is nothing else to eat." She told him as she reached to drink some of her strawberry milk. After she drank, Kori stared at him in confusion. "Who may you be?" She asked him. She did not remember seeing him in any of her past classes.

The boy opened his mouth to say something but was interrupted by someone. "Aqua, my man!" A familiar voice called out. A boy came towards the two and Kori immediately notice it was Gar. Gar patted the boy on the back and took a seat next to him.

"Aqua?" Kori questioned.

The boy shook his head meaning that wasn't his name. "Kyle Roberts." He said as he held out his hand.

"Kori Anderson." She said as she shook his hand. They let go and then Kori turned her attention to Gar. "Why do you call him Aqua?" She asked him.

"For his love of swimming!" Gar shouted but only they could hear since it was pretty loud. Kori nodded understanding what he meant. "He was last year's best swimmer. I hope you don't mind, I told him he could sit with us." Gar told her as he grabbed his fork and dug it through some food substance that she did not recognize. Kori shook her head not minding at all that Kyle was here. Gar smiled and then took a bite of his food. "Tofu is so damn good." Beast Boy said as he took another bite.

Kyle apparently had gotten the same thing that Gar had and he took a bite. "Where's Raven I thought she was gonna sit with us?" He asked after he took a few bites. Gar said something but his mouth was full of Tofu and they weren't able to understand him. He sighed, seeing that they couldn't understand him and then pointed to a girl that was heading towards there direction.

"Hey—" Gar greeted but instead of Raven stopping to eat with them she walked further and took a seat on the empty table behind them. He rolled his eyes seeing that she wanted to be alone but seriously she can't be alone all the time. He stood up and walked towards where she was sitting. "Raven, why don't you see with your good buds?" Gar asked her as he took a seat next to her.

She looked at him with the expressionless face she was known for. "I don't want to." She simply said. Gar then shrugged. "If you say so…" He motioned for the rest of them to sit on that table. He stood up, grabbed his tray, and sat on the table between Raven and Kori. "Now we're all sitting together!" He said cheerfully as a child would. Raven rolled her eyes and mentally cursed at him.

After lunch, everything seemed to go by fast for Kori. Occasionally she would see Roy around winking at her and then glaring at the boy from the morning…Richard. She started walking toward her house with Gar beside her. Raven lived on the other side so she had to go but after she left Gar said, she really lived a few streets away from him.

"I think Raven's starting to warm up to us." Gar said trying to start a conversation. "Even though she just lied on where she lived." His backpack kept making some noise but it was from the keys he had.

"I think so as well. You obviously try really hard to get her to befriend you." Kori told him as she spotted something on the corner of her eye. On the other side of the street two people were walking and talking. It wasn't just two any two people but it was Richard and Victor.

"You see them too." He said ignoring what she said before. "Yeah they live around there but unfortunately for me Victor leaves near me. Richard well he leaves further down the street." Gar told her as he hoped that they didn't spot them. The two friends kept on walking and talking about what went on at school.

A sign with the name of a street called 'Rhodey' appeared and they both stopped. "Well I gotta go." Gar sadly told her. Kori nodded and saw that Victor was crossing towards street leaving Richard alone.

He stood in front of the two. "What's up Garfield and um…" He let his voice trailed since he didn't know the girls name.

"Kori." She answered seeing that he didn't know her name.

Victor smiled. "Yeah, well see ya." Victor started heading towards his house. Gar gave a friendly smiled at Kori before he started heading to his house. Gar kept making sure that he was two feet away from Victor afraid that he was going to do one of his tricks.

Kori sighed and started walking towards her house. She saw that Richard was heading the same way. Maybe the lived near each other but it wouldn't really matter.

After minutes of walking, Kori finally reached her house. She noticed that Richard kept on walking and stopped at the Wayne Manor. She remembered Manny, her older sister, telling her about it the day they were moving to her house. Kori looked at her house and saw that it was about the size of Richards's house only smaller. "Manny buys a big house even thought its only us." She remembered what Manny said when she asked her why she always buys mansions even though it's only them two and ofcourse their guardian Galfore. 'Were royalty sister dear so, we deserve to be treated like royalty.' Manny's words echoed through her head.

Kori opened the door to her 'house' or mansion. Whatever you want to call it. "Being royalty is very unpleasant."
