Chapter Three: Kaz Gets a Mission

Kaz was walking to school for another boring day of learning things he already knew and having to deal with his classmates avoiding him like the plague. And after the agonizing seven and a half hours of school, he then has to go talk to the school's psychologist for an hour and after that he goes home where his mom tries to get him to make friends or join a school club. And the same thing is repeated the next day and the next day and the day after that.

Sighing, Kaz took out his red scanner to look through his cards. He was hoping his Chaotic-self would have transported back by now, but something might have come up.

He might have got a tip about some new battle gear or mugic. One of his Underworld associates might have something for him or may have wanted to work out a deal of some kind.

Those options were good ones, but he knew there was a chance his Chaotic-self could have gotten into trouble of some kind. He could have gone to Perim and maybe an Underworlder or other creature whom he did wrong to get their revenge on him.

"Hi!" The ever pain and announce to his existence shouted.

Kaz let out a curse and kept walking, but he put his scanner away. He could hear Tom continue to yell for him to stop and wait, but Kaz acted like he wasn't hearing Tom.

Tom ran up to Kaz, a little out of breath and looking angry.

"You owe me a new scammer!" Tom said, then stepped in front of Kaz, making him stop walking. Kaz didn't bother to ask why Tom thought he owed him a scanner, knowing that Tom would tell him. Tom then took out a dirty blue scanner. "I typed in that fake code and now my scanner is broken. Not only that, but I can't get into my online deck!"

"And that's my problem because?" Kaz asked sounding annoyed, but wasn't really, it was just another mask of his to put on to fool the audience or in this case Tom. Normally he didn't have to fake his announce when Tom was around, but he was actually interested in the free information Tom was giving him. From what he understood so far was that Tom had ignored his warring and typed in the code. Of course his scanner wouldn't work because his Chaotic-self was in chaotic and he couldn't access his online deck because his Chaotic-self needed it.

From the looks of Tom's dirty scanner that he normally takes good care of, Kaz (knowing that Tom as a bad temper) was able to deduce that Tom most have thrown it on the ground or in the trash when he couldn't get it to turn back on. If it was in the trash then Tom most have fished it out to use as some kind of proof that it was Kaz's fault.

It was obvious that Tom didn't know about chaotic yet and Kaz had to play his cards right to keep it that way.

"You were the one that told me not to type in the code!" Tom yelled.

Kaz rolled his eyes at what Tom said. It didn't make sense for Tom to blame Kaz when he was the one that warned him in the first place. It wasn't Kaz's fault that Tom didn't listen to his warning (even though it was a lie, but Tom didn't need to find that out).

"Yes, I was the one that told you not to type it in and then you went ahead anyways. So now your scanner is broken and you'll need to get not only a new scanner but also a new deck." Kaz said, planting the idea that the scanner would never work again. "Why do you think it's my fault that your stupidity cost you and that I have to buy you a new scanner?" Kaz asked sounding angry.

"Because you always trick me into doing something that always gets me into trouble!" Tom yelled.

"Well, may be if you weren't so stupide then you wouldn't fall for it every time. Now if you will excuse me, I want to get to school before the ball rings." Kaz said then ruddily pushed Tom aside and walked away at a faster pace than what he had been walking before Tom stopped him.

"Wait, I'm not done talking to you!" Tom yelled, but instead of going after Kaz, Tom just stood there as if Kaz would come walking back.

"Well, I am done talking to you!" Kaz yelled back as he continued to walk away.

I hope my Chaotic-self is able to get rid of Tom. I don't think I can stand it if my one heaven is ruined by that guy who every one seems to love just because he's the best player on the school's baseball team! Kaz began to think of all the reasons he hated Tom, ignoring the fact that Tom was following him.

In Underworld City, Kaz's Chaotic-self was just as irritated as his Earth-self, but for different reasons.

Cooper had told him that he needed to get her fast so as to not make the creature he was meet wait, but after one minute of waiting at the meeting spot, Kaz was starting to think he would be the waiting.

It wasn't the first time, he had to wait for this creature to show up after being the one to set up the meeting. But Kaz wasn't going to complain to his favorite creature of all time; the last person who complained to him went ten feet under.

Kaz didn't know how long he had waited until his eyes began to fell heavy. With his back against the metal wall, he closed his eyes to take a short rest. He didn't even care of how dangerous it was to close your eyes in the Underworld when it could make it so easy for someone to attack.

"Wake up, Kazzy." A deep and powerful voice said, making Kaz jump up.

"Oh, hi Chaor." Kaz said, scared that Chaor would be unhappy that he was sleeping, but Chaor didn't look mad. "What is it that I can do for you?" Kaz asked nervously.

A smile formed on Chaor's face, as he looked down at his human spy, then he said: "I have a mission for you in Mt. Piller."

Note: Well that was a short chapter, but I'll try to make that up in the next chapter, which I'll try to get over 2,500 words.

Well, Kaz still acts the same way towards Chaor for whatever reason that I'll leave you readers to make up your ideas on why that is so.

Review! Review! Review! It makes me happy :D
