Talking to Strangers
Summary: Destiny had something in store for Riku, but that slightly changed as he got in the way of Destiny's plans by starting a fight with Sora. Riku is still completely clueless, while there are three angels on their way to help Riku to restore Destiny's ways on the Islands. Riku x Sora
Disclaimer: I do not own Riku, Sora and the rest of the Kingdom Hearts crew. I, however, DO own Nia, Elvira, Elly and Evi. They are MINE and only MINE! xD
Note: I don't remember putting it in my first chappy, but Riku turned sixteen in that summer vacation, so that was his sixteenth birthday party where he lost his control over his feelings. Kairi is the same age as Riku and Sora is 15. Sorry if not mentioned... And uhm, sorry if I totally mess up these classes. I don't know what they give you guys in university, so... Sorry in advance... And as you can see... I wanted to have someone in this fic I could loathe with everything I had, so meet miss Umiboshi: Riku's least favourite teacher. She'll have a bigger part in the story later on. ;) We need a main target for Elly's nightmare magic, don't we? xD
Chapter 2: 'Total chaos'
As expected Riku and Sora just barely reached the school to hear the bell ring, but they didn't make it in time to their first class ((Such a pity xD)). Riku knocked on the door of his first class, Algebra. He was thinking about Sora when a voice called from him on the other side of the door.
"Come in!"
With a last glance down the hall Riku prepared himself and opened the door.
"Well well... If it isn't mister Masaki! Late again? You know I can't tolerate with that all the time. You're damn lucky I'm busy for the moment. Go to your seat."
The grey, anti-gravity curls, the bloody, red lipstick, the blue eye shadow, making it as though she had two black eyes. Who else could it be? Riku had to hide his groan under a cough or he would really be in trouble. He secretly hoped she would be sick or dead...
"Yes miss Umiboshi."
He answered as she was waving with her hand to his seat on the back row. Oh, how he hated that woman, always acting as if she ruled everything. One day, he swore, she was going to get it. The vicious bitch, she is... But instead of vocalizing his thoughts he headed to his seat in silence and sat down on his chair while suddenly noticing someone standing in the door. The new girl's deep grey eyes pierced through everyone in the room after she just saw the whole drama that had played right under her nose since Riku knocked on the door.
/I wonder how long she's been standing there.../
Riku thought as her grey eyes suddenly landed on him and shivers were racing up and down his spine.
"Oh!"
A small, slightly nervous voice arouse from the desk infront of the class and caught the girl's attention.
"I didn't see you there my child! Come in and close the door."
Miss Umiboshi went to the girl and closed the door herself in a hurry. She took the girl by her arm and lead her to the front of the class while muttering things like 'stupid kids', 'always late' and 'totally no good for anything'. The girl frowned and glared for a second until the woman stopped in front of the blackboard and started observing her. The girl had beautiful, long brown hair and she was wearing a long, black skirt that reached her ankles, with a long black coat over it.
"You do realize that you're breaking the school rules with this outfit? Hell, you look like you're going to a funeral!"
The murmurs in the classroom changed into fits of laughter at the misplaced joke of the teacher. The new girl looked at the other students and saw they wore blue school uniforms or clothes matching the school's uniform colour.
"I don't wear this for my amusement, miss."
She said with a cold voice and her typical icy glare.
"Then why, if I may ask, would that be?"
The woman said with a mocking smile on her face.
"My psychiatrist said it would make me feel more comfortable among 'normal' people..."
The girl retaliated with so much force that miss Umiboshi stumbled backwards while her face turned pale, her grin had already melted like snow under the sun.
"Psy- Psychia... trist? Well, erm... Why don't you introduce yourself to the class so we can start with the lesson...?"
She said nervously while she started writing furiously on a piece of paper. No doubt a letter to the rector to ask why he put such a freak in her class and to demand she would be removed off her schedule at once. The girl got slightly nervous while facing the big chattering crowd that was supposed to be her class for the upcoming year. She hated talking in front of people and she hated introductions and speeches the most.
"I'm Elvira Yukizato. I got transferred to Destiny Island for... private reasons," She said while resting her eyes on Riku again. "Yoroshiku." ((A/N: Means 'Take easy on me' or 'please be nice'. I don't know if the spelling's right.))
Elvira sighed as she bowed to the class and stood back up to look at what the teacher was doing, only to see the woman was still writing on the letter. She looked back to the class, then to Riku.
/What did I do to deserve this? ... /
Without asking permission she walked to the back of the class and took place next to Riku, trying to ignore the rumours going around the class involving her business. Elvira was always very fond of her privacy. She won't let anyone, anything dominate her and her feelings. She was a little sensitive about rumours. She found it unfair that she was discriminated when she was younger, so she just started scaring people away from her by wearing dark clothes and acting creepy and cold. People used to call her 'Ice Queen' in her past. She thought it fitted her.
Riku glanced at the girl next him.
/Interesting.../ He thought, but then he directed his attention back to miss Umiboshi in front of the class.
She gave the letter to one of the students on the front desks and send them to the Principal. Riku decided to attract the teacher's attention to him instead of the girl. He knew how it felt to be a newbie and miss Umiboshi did nothing to ease it. Riku raised his hand and miss Umiboshi frowned at him.
"What do you want, Riku?" Miss Umiboshi barked at him with that high pitched voice of her.
"Open a window, will you! It's hot in here!" Riku retorted just as loud as she did. The entire class laughed at Riku's antics. Unfortunately, this only made things worse.
"You!" Miss Umiboshi growled at him while walking to the back of the rather large classroom with a face as red as a tomato.
"If you EVER yell at me again I will make sure you'll get expelled!" Riku smirked. The teacher looked as if she was going to explode with fury.
Riku didn't know what was coming, but suddenly Elvira stood in front of him and was glaring at their teacher.
"Go back to the front of the room and start teaching, what you were supposed to do in the first place." Elvira said with a shaking voice, her anger hardly under control as she pointed a shaky finger to the desk in front of the class.
Miss Umiboshi's eyes widened. After a few minutes she's overcome her shock, since it was the first time a student of hers talked back to her like that, and narrowed her eyes. Her face got all puffy and red.
And just when the students thought she was going to blow, she turned around with her face as bright as a red shiny and stomped out of the classroom, while she pulled the door closed after her, the glass in the door broke and fell to the ground. Everyone was shocked for a minute, then they started talking animatedly about what happened. Some of them started cheering loudly, others were clapping politely and even a few of them came walking to Elvira to shake her hand and pat her back.
But all Elvira did was sit back down on her seat, give Riku a mysterious smirk and think to herself 'I will see to it myself that that horrible person will never teach another student again.'
While this amazing sight developed itself before Riku's own eyes, he could only ponder about what happened, all night long even...
Okay peeps! Chappy two finished! It was a long and bumpy road, but here it is! Now I got to finish chappy three of Draco Malfoy's Diary...
