⌠Tony? Hey Tony, wakey, wakey.■ came a harsh, grating voice. ⌠Hank and I still have to give you our present.■ A slightly evil grin filled Tony▓s vision. ⌠Urgh. Uh, what happened?■ Tony hazarded a glance at the others. You passed out, young one. came the deep reassuring tones of Thor. Thor was speaking Asgardian so Tony wouldn▓t get spooked. Thanks Thor. was his reply. Returning to English he asked ⌠So, what have you and Hank plotted?■
Stark and Hank nodded. Hank held up a large backpack with school stuff. ⌠It was Stark▓s idea.■ he muttered. ⌠Well, I had a hand in it. We got you enrolled in a school. After talking to Steve, of course.■ Tony was ecstatic. ⌠When do I start?!■ This was the best present by far today. ⌠Well today▓s Monday, and school starts on Friday.■ said Stark. ⌠For you at least.■ Tony didn▓t care. He was going to a real school!
The rest of the week passed quickly and Friday came. At 6am Tony ate breakfast at super speed and ran to get a ride to the main part of New York City. He arrived at Middle Town High just as the bell for homeroom sounded. Following his dad, he stepped into the principals office. ⌠Hi■ said a secretary. ⌠New student?■ she pointed at Tony. ⌠Yes ma▓am.■ he said. ⌠Name?■ ⌠Tony Rogers■ Steve said. ⌠I enrolled him last week.■ ⌠Ah, yes here he is. I▓ll have Chang show him around. They have the same schedule.■

⌠Heads up■ hissed a blond boy. ⌠Newbie coming in.■ ⌠Class, this is Anthony. He▓s a transfer student, so please be courteous.■ the teacher said. ⌠Could you tell us about yourself?■ ⌠I▓ve been attending a private school, until my dad got transferred here. My ▒uncles▓ got me enrolled here.■ Tony had heard the blond boy and hoped he wasn▓t Chang. ⌠I▓ve been hoping to meet other kids my age for awhile.■ ▓Okay, he thought ▒why don▓t I just say Kill Me, I▓m a loser?▓ He headed towards the back of the classroom, not noticing the foot stuck out to trip him. His reflexes kicked in and he continued to his desk. An Asian boy stuck his hand out and said ⌠Hi■ in a non-committal way. ⌠I▓m Chang. I▓m supposed to show you around. ⌠I▓m Tony.■ Tony smiled and looked away. ▓Damn▓ he thought ▓why do I feel this way about other guys? Chang is cute though.▓ He admitted to himself.
After first period he and Chang headed for the restrooms. The blond boy was there. ⌠H-hi Flash.■ Tony could tell Chang was scared of Flash by his stutter. One of Flash▓s friends grabbed Tony and pinned him to the wall by his throat and another one tried to give him a swirley. Tony lashed out wit his foot and kicked the guy holding him to the wall. Than he swan kicked Chang▓s assailant. He gave Flash a scowl to rival Hank▓s on a bad day. Flash got the hint and ran. Tony turned to Chang. ⌠Why▓d they try to shove your head in the toilet?■ was the first thing that came out of his mouth. Chang laughed. ⌠I▓m gay openly, and they feel their masculinity is threatened.■ Tony grinned. ⌠So it▓s okay for a guy to be attracted to another guy?■ he said casually. ⌠Well, sorta. Why?■ Chang replied. ⌠Um┘.. I think you▓re kinda cute.■ Tony thought Chang was going to laugh but he grinned and handed Tony a pink card. ⌠Come to a Rainbow meeting sometime. We better get to chem though.■
