In this chapter, AVALANCHE has their first day of school, and Lyra meets a very important character! Like I said in the first chapter (I think) this crossover is a MEGA-CROSSOVER! I added Soul Eater characters and the important character is from the Percy Jackson series. He's important in Part 2 of this series and is very important in this one. Enjoy this next chapter!

Chapter 3- This Isn't School! This Is Hell!

I woke up at 6:15, fed my ferrets, took a shower, and brushed my teeth. I was excited to go to school since I've always on missions or training and homeschooled my entire life. Hopefully it won't be like Highschool Musical or something. I am just fine with not singing every five minutes. I was wearing a very comfortable pair of jeans, a long-sleeved maroon shirt with pink zigzags at the bottom of it and some tennis shoes. I changed my hair to and my eyes to silver.

I walked down the hall banging on everyone's doors.

"C'mon guys get up! The bus comes at eight! Wake up," I yelled. Yuffie opened her door. she was basically copying what I was wearing except her shirt was white with gray stripes. I don't know why she copied me but I tried convincing her not to last night. It didn't work.

"Sup," she chirped. I smiled.

"Help me wake everyone up," I said. She made a salute.

"Aye-aye, Captain!"

I rolled my eyes and turned around... aaaand bumped into Kadaj.

"Oof!" I fell backwards and he grabbed my arm. Yuffie snickered.

"Awkward," she said. I couldn't agree more.

When Kadaj picked me back up I ran downstairs to get breakfast. He was wearing a white T-shirt and jeans.

When the bus came, everyone was standing by the gate. Helga waved goodbye from her spot on the porch.

"Bye! Have a great day kids!"

I waved back before getting on the bus. Ohhhhhh boy... What the hell am I looking at?!

This bus... whuuh? It was a loud, noisy, dirty, smelly place. Kids were fighting and laughing and talking all over.

"Are you sure we're on the right bus," Yuffie whispered to Vincent. I spotted some free spots at the back of the bus with some highschool students.

"There!"

As we made our way down the aisle, the bus quieted. I felt a lot more self-conscious and shy than when I first got on. I let everyone go in front of me. As they got seated, I felt something hit the back of my head. I stopped walking.

"ShinRa Freak," a kid yelled. Oh shit. I forced down the panic and quick sat down by a girl with sandy hair. Well then. I guess people just want to just ulghhh... The freaking ShrinRa Electric Power Company was up and running nine years ago but I guess these kids' parents taught them how to spot people who were in ShinRa or had something to do with it. Since I have Mako poisoning, my eyes glow. They are noticeable. Very noticeable.

"Just ignore them," the girl by me said.

"Huh?" A person just talked to me! Holy shit!

She rolled her green eyes.

"You heard me. Ignore them. They're always like that." She tuned back to look out the window.

"Oh. Ok then. Thanks," I said. She looked at me.

"Maka Albarn." She held out her hand.

"Lyra." I shook it and she smiled.

"That's Soul across the aisle." Maka pointed towards a guy with white hair and red eyes who was having a conversation with Cloud and Kadaj.
"That's Tsubaki and Black Star right in front of us and behind us is Crona and Liz." She pointed to a girl with long black hair and a guy with dark hair right in front of us; then she pointed back behind us where a tall girl with brown hair sat by a kid with pink-gray hair and a worried face.

"And the two in the back are Death the Kidd and Liz's sister Patty. Oh, and Kidd likes things symmetrical," Maka added. Why are you telling me these things? Kidd was a strange guy with amber eyes and black hair. One side of his head had three stripes of white. A blonde girl was sitting next to him playing with a little stuffed animal giraffe. Well then. I introduced AVALANCHE to Maka.

"So you and Kadaj-" she started with an impish smile.

"No! Just friends!" I practically shouted. Maka snorted to keep from laughing.

"But I can tell you like him," she said. Yeaahhh-ughhhg. Is it really that obvious? Because, I don't think its that obvious. Well f*ck it.

We got to the school then.

"Well, good luck Lyra. Hope we have some classes together and if anyone is a d*ck, just try to ignore them," Maka said as she left the seat. I left the bus. The school was a red brick building. Well that's nice and normal and I wanna go home.

"Here goes nothing," I muttered. And walk forward. Legs, feet I said walk. I said- dammit feet don't listen. I waited for everyone to get off the bus. Kadaj smiled at me and we all started walking. Well now my feet listen. That's good right? Students were all over the grounds.

"Whoa look at that," Yuffie pointed stuff out for us while we made our way up the steps. We felt safer in a group so we stayed that way. One of the first things I noticed was that everyone was in a school uniform... and we weren't.

Oh shit.

I saw Maka and her friends making their way up behind us. I noticed Black Star had a bunch of weird and a black star on his right bicep. He jumped onto a table where two students had set up a chess game. Pieces went everywhere. They looked pretty annoyed but their protests were drowned out. This is why:

"HEY! HEY EVERYONE! YOUR KING IS BACK! BLACK STAR THE SUPEREIOR KING IS BACK!" He yelled. Tsubaki ran over.

"Black Star get down from there," she yelled. One of the students threw a chess piece at him. The other started grumbling and picked up the chess pieces. I looked around. The elementary school and middle schools that Marlene and Denzel went to were at the left of the high school. I'm pretty sure they were never homeschooled.

Maka walked over with Soul. "Hey, do you want us to show you around? We've got Homeroom for first period so our teacher won't mind," Maka said with a bright smile. Soul smirked.

"Her dad is the Homeroom and Social Studies teacher," he said. Maka gave him a playful punch.

"Thanks," Cid said. Reno was already flirting.

"Hey Reno c'mon," Barret grabbed Reno by the back of his collar and followed the rest of us. Well we definitely stand out. By the time it was time for Homeroom, we had gotten our classes and skills filled out. I was the last one to get them and I wasn't really paying attention to where everyone went. Oh boy.

"Um, Miss Secretary Lady? Do you know-" I started to ask. The phone rang.

"Excuse me, I need to get this. Go to class," she said, shooing me out the door.

I collided with a guy who was late for class and papers went everywhere. Typical high school scenario!

"Sorry! Sorry," I said as I picked up a piece up paper and handed it to him. He looked up-and whoa that scar looked bad. He had blonde hair and green eyes and a scar that ran down his face. He smiled.

"Thanks," he said as he took his paper. "I'm Luke Castellan. I haven't seen you around here. What classes are you in?"

My mouth hung open. Where is Yuffie? And Tifa? Heeeelp!

"Uhhhhh," I said. It came out as a high-pitched squeak. Why are you talking to meh are you an idiot do you live under a rock ulghahagh. He just smiled again.

"What's your name?" He asked as we walked to Homeroom. I kept my head down. Yup this Luke guy is an idiot. He apparently misunderstood. He apparently though that I was embarrassed and a bit shy #which isn't completely a lie# but he won't leave me alone.

"Sorry. I get that way sometimes," he was saying. I had noooo idea what he was saying before.

"Lyra," I blurted. But since I said it so fast, it sounded like "liar," which my name is actually Time Lord for. He stopped and looked at me weird.

"Huh? What?" He looked a little offended. I mentally facepalmed. Idiot, idiot, idiot, I thought.

"My name. It's Lyra," I said. He smiled a dazzling smile. Ugh.

"After you, Ms. Lyra," he said. He opened the Homeroom door. Oh we are here already? And why you be calling me miss and ughh this guy is making me derpy.

I fast-walked in and sat down by Yuffie. Only she and Vincent were here out of the rest of AVALANCHE.

"Hey where were you?" She asked. I glared at her.

"What? What?!" She flung her arms.

"Where were you?!" I hissed. Luke came and sat down at my other side. I closed my eyes and bit back a groan. There were other empty seats and other people to sit by! Why didn't he just sit there?! GLURAGHHH!

It's because he likes you, a tiny voice said in my head. Great. Just... great. And even though this guy is good-looking I don't really like him. There was something about him that made me... uneasy. I don't know how else to explain it but it's a bad uneasy. Not the good one. I leaned over by Yuffie.

"Where's Kadaj... and everyone else," I finished quickly. Yuffie shook her head.

"Another Homeroom," Yuffie explained. I slouched.

"Damn it," I said under my breath. Then the bell rang.

The rest of the day was fine and dandy until lunch time. And it wasn't because Yuffie was entirely convinced that school lunches were nothing but gruel and wouldn't let anyone convince her otherwise #Vincent surprisingly facepalmed after a while#, it was because of stupid people and they're ways of putting people into categories and groups.

"Hey more newbies," a perky sarcastic voice said. Yuffie, Vincent, and I turned around. One girl had brown hair and blue eyes, and the other girl had black hair and grey eyes. The girl who talked had blonde hair and blue eyes. They looked like the "popular" kids in school. Well this is going to be interesting.

"I don't think we met. I'm Brittany and this is my school," she said. I resisted the urge to laugh, facepalm, and tell her that high school isn't a movie. But I didn't. I also wanted to tell her that she looked like a scrawny chicken dressed in pink. Seriously.

Brittany flipped her hair. "Here are the lunch room rules: Nerds are at the side closest to the door, jocks are by the windows, losers are nearest the cafeteria ladies door, Goth and emo kids are by the trash cans, cheerleaders and populars are by the jocks. And the kids that are in-between sit at the tables in the middle," she said with a smile that just looked a little bit fake and evil. Ok I couldn't help myself.

I raised my hand.

"What is it, dummy," she asked. Jeez bitch. I copied her smile.

"Hypothetically, where would we sit?" I asked. She rolled her eyes.

"You sit with the emo and Goths, ShinRa Freak," Brittany smirked. Oh you did NOT just go there! Oh HELLLLL NO!

"And where do you sit?" I asked. I felt my eyes trying to turn colors.

"Where do you think I sit, Freak?" She looked at me like I was stupid. I smirked. I knew what table she would hate to sit at the most.

"Oh I thought you sat by the 'losers'," I said, making air quotes. Brittany looked absolutely livid.

"Oh no," I heard Yuffie say behind me quietly.

"Oh no you didn't," one of Brittany's stupid friends said, snapping her fingers in the air in the shape of a 'z.'

"Oh yes I did, bitches," I said. I copied the little snapping thingie and the girls gasped dramatically. Brittany scoffed and snapped her fingers. The girls flipped their hair and walked into the lunch room.

...

...

...

...

"So that happened," Yuffie said.

...

...

The three of us started snickering. I went from snickering to laughing. Mainly out of nervousness because not only do I have to walk into a room full of people but I was too pissed at Brittany the Bitch to be shy and scared or anxious like usual.

We calmed down enough to walk into the lunch room to get our food. After we got our hamburgers full of mystery meat, we looked around. Tifa, Cid, Yazoo, Kadaj, Loz, and everyone else sat at a table that was closest to the trash cans. Brittany must've caught up to them. As we made our way to them, I looked around. Maka and her friends were sitting at the tables in the middle of the room. Luke was with the "popular" kids. He caught my eye and waved at me. I smiled and waved back but the second I turned around, I rolled my eyes. Ugh. Boys.

"So who has Math next?" Yazoo asked as I sat down. We all looked at him.

"We all do," Kadaj said.

"Jeez just trying to start a conversation," Yazoo said. I sighed.

"School isn't fun when it comes to social times," I said. Everyone looked at me this time. I looked up from my food.

"What? It is! Oh, come on people!" I said when they rolled their eyes, sighed, or facepalmed. Yuffie raised her eyebrows and looked behind me.

"Cheer squad, five o'clock," she said even though it didn't make sense. Tifa perked up. She jumped up and blocked their path. Well I was done with being social so I focused on my food.

"So have you-" Tifa started.

"Sorry, squeaks. Mice aren't allowed to be cheerleaders," a cheerleader said. The group snickered. We all froze but I was the first to react. No one makes fun of my friends! You can make fun of me, you can make fun of my clothes, but if you make fun of my friends, Imma stab a bitch! Somebody hold my shoes! Hold my earrings and imaginary purse! If Tifa doesn't kick their asses, Imma kick their asses!

"Lyra, sit down," somebody warned. I think it was Kadaj but I'm sorry! I'm PISSED OFF! AGAIN!

"HEY!" I yelled.

"Oh look, it's the ShinRa Freak," one of the cheerleaders said.

"Kadaj, sit down," Cloud said. Whoa WHAT?!

"You think that you're so big and tough just because you were in ShinRa, don't you, Freak?" Another cheerleader said with her hands on her hips.

"Well at least I'm not making fun of people just because they sound funny," I said with a glare. A few of the cheerleaders' eyes widened.

"Lyra, calm it!" Kadaj grabbed my arm and yanked me back and walked me out of the lunch room. We walked into the empty hall. I was very confused. I yanked my arm away.

"Wait a second! Hold up! What did I do?" I cocked my head to the side.

"You'd see if I had a mirror," Kadaj answered. Oh shit. Well this is embarrassing.

"How many people did I freak out?" I asked with my head in my hands.

"Not many," he said. "Are you ok?" No. Stupid half demon wing thingie.

I peeked at Kadaj through my fingers. "I don't think public school is for me," I said in a quiet voice.

A couple days later, I regretted running into Luke. I was talking to Maka, Yuffie, and Kadaj in the hallway and they were trying to convince me to do something. And it required me speaking in front of a crowd.

"Oh come on Lyra! It's just a talent show! It's fun," Maka said. Yeah, that's what people said about school. "It'll be fun," they said! "It'll be fine," they said! "Don't worry," they said. Well they're liars is what I say, I thought.

"Lyra don't be a chicken; just sign up," Yuffie said.

"Why do I have to sign up?! And what would I do?!" I asked. Please let the subject go, please let the subject go.

"Well, you are a good singer. You could sing," Kadaj said. My eyebrows rose. Brain! Status report, I thought after a couple seconds of being quiet. My brain answered, Glaaaaaahhhhhh... Well that's not good.

"Um Lyra?" Kadaj shook my shoulder a little. I made a squeaky noise that sounded like gibberish.

And that's the moment Luke decided to walk over! Dammit.

"So... Lyra do you have anything planned this weekend?" Luke asked. Well way to get straight to the point Luke! Don't, you know, say hi or anything. Jeez.

Kadaj stiffened and scowled. Well, that's really weird but then again it probably isn't because nobody's ever asked me out before. And I don't want to go out with Luke.

"Uh n-" I tried to answer but Yuffie answered for me.

"She would love to," Yuffie said.

"Yuffie!" I squeaked. What the hell-oh no. No no no no no! You are not setting me up with anyone!

"What?" She asked. Luke smiled. Damn it!, I thought.

"I'll pick you up around four on Saturday, 'k? For ice cream or a movie or something," he said. He walked away.

I turned around and punched Yuffie's arm.

"Ow! What the hell was that for?!" She asked, rubbing her arm.

"For answering for me!" I said. I punched her other arm.

"Hey! What the hell?!"

"That's for the next time you decide to answer a question like that for me again. The guy has been bugging me for days and I don't know why," I said.

Yuffie and Maka started laughing like hyenas. I scowled.

"What's so funny?" I asked.

"He was flirting, dummy," Maka said in-between giggles.

"What? He was?" I asked. I'm not really joking when I say that I had no idea what was going on.

Kadaj put the sign up sheet down. Well, he dropped it actually.

"You don't know if someone is flirting with you?" He asked. I nodded.

"Well, ya. I don't really know what flirting is like," I said. Maka, Yuffie and Kadaj looked surprised.

"What's so bad about it?" I asked.

"Ok, if you knew that Luke was flirting with you, would you have said yes or no without Yuffie answering for you?" Kadaj asked seriously.

"Jeez, Kadaj. If I didn't know any better, I'd say your jealous," Yuffie remarked. Maka laughed a little harder. Kadaj ignored them and waited for my answer.

"I wouldn't go with the guy and if Yuffie didn't answer," I glared at her before finishing, "I would've still said no. And I don't really want to go." I turned around and left the hall.

"Um, Kadaj? How much do you like Lyra? Because I swear on my Materia that I won't tell her if you do," I heard Yuffie say as I turned the corner.

Ugh boys.

So how was that? I don't think school is going to be fun for Lyra. Which stinks because she might have to go to school ALONE in Part 2. But you'll have to wait and see why! And when I was writing this in my notebook, I don't think I was trying to make Kadaj seem jealous but now that I'm typing it, I think I was but I didn't know... And the real question is... HOW WILL HE ANSWER YUFFIE'S QUESTION?! *evil smile* MWA-HAHAHAHHAHA! Anyways, thanks for the review! I HOPE YOU ALL LIKED THIS CHAPTER!

PLEASE FAVORITE AND REVIEW and have a great day/night everyone!

Sayonara, peeps! :D
