Session 1: Trouble on the way to the mess hall
The dean's voice signaled the beginning of school, as everyone in the class got up and left the classroom. Cross sighed as he picked up his books.
"Way to start off your first day of school…Already I'm in trouble!" He muttered as he left the classroom. 'Where to next?' He thought to himself, standing in the bustling corridor. As if to answer his question, the dean's voice rang through the air once again.
"All pupils, please head to the mess hall. That is all."
"Mess hall…? Like the place we eat?" Cross asked himself, somewhat confused.
"Yes." A golden eyed, brown hair girl said, as she hurriedly passed Cross, by the looks of it, she carried many books in her bag, plus an extra three in her arms. Her dark purplish robes, as well as her expression, told Cross her element was obviously dark. But before he could utter out a single word of thanks, she passed him and did not turn back.
"Duh…." Was all Cross could muster out as she continued to walk, a mischievous smile came upon Cross's face, showing that he was not willing to give up on a conversation as he chased after the golden eyed girl.
"So…uh…what's your na-"
"Sephie." The girl replied, without so much a glimpse at Cross. Still not willing to give up, Cross tried to strike up another conversation, hopefully this one would last longer than one word replies.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A green-eyed, silver-haired teenager walked casually along the corridor with the other pupils. He wore a long blue cape, along with baggy jeans and a baggy green shirt. A smile came to his face as he eyed the female pupils that were also starting school.
"Aramin, we barely started and already you're asking for trouble, by wearing that cape. You DO know that fire mage's are supposed to wear red capes. Not blue ones, the frost mages wear those blue capes!" A blue eyed, blond haired boy stated, his white cloak fluttering behind him as he fastened his pace to reach Aramin.
"Yes, yes, mother. Whatever you say," Aramin sighed, taking notice of the blond boy's cloak. "What'd you do with your brown one, Jesh? Trade with an earth mage?" Aramin asked.
"Why, yes I di-"
"Do you see what I see, Jesh? Look over there! It's a damsel in distress! It has to be!" Aramin exclaimed as he caught site of Cross and Sephie.
"Don't be stupid, it just looks like they're talking. Jeez Aramin! You really have to stop watching and reading those romance stuff." Jesh said, but Aramin wasn't paying attention as he kept his eyes on Sephie. "Aramin. Aramin! Are you even listening to me? She's not a damsel in distress!" Jesh yelled.
"Oh yeah? Then why is my D.I.D. senses tingling?" Aramin questioned, as he turned to face Jesh.
"D.I.D.? What the hell are you talking about?" Jesh asked, baffled by Aramin.
"Damsel In Distress senses! Now watch this!" Aramin smiled as he rushed towards Sephie, leaving a dumbstruck Jesh standing there.
Jesh sighed, as another one of their group came up to him. He was a young spikey haired teenager. He wore a golden cloak, signifying his element was thunder.
"What's up Jesh? Aramin bout to get yelled at, or slapped, or beat up, or maybe something completely new?"
"I doubt it's something completely new Chris, I think it's the usual three again." Jesh stated as he and Chris made their way over to Aramin.
"Oh, ho, ho! I can't wait to see this!" Chris smiled mischievously as both ran after their hopeless romantic friend.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
'Sheesh…she rarely says more than one or two words whenever I ask something…Ahhh! Gotta think up something to talk about!' Cross thought as he shook his head, and took notice of the books she held. Through the corner of her eye, Sephie saw Cross looking at her books and hug them tighter to her chest.
"What?" Sephie asked Cross, as she turned to face him.
"Duh…N-Nothing! Nothing at all!" Cross uttered, with a nervous smile on his face, as they continued to walk. Not being able to bear the awkward silence, Cross spoke, "So…er…what kinda books you like to read?"
"Any." Sephie stated, as she continued to walk.
"Ah…then…what're your favorite types of book?" Cross asked, this time hoping for a reply that was longer than two words. Sephie blushed a bit at the question as she remembered all the romance novels she had read. But before she could have answered his question, Cross looked through his bag and continued speaking.
"Cause, if you want, you can read this book, only if you want, its…well, I won't ruin the story for you." He said with a grin as he handed her the book. Sephie hesitated, but took it from his hands, the expression on her face was one of surprise. Before she could thank him however….
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chris and Jesh finally caught up to Aramin, who was a few feet away from Sephie.
"Oh, good! Chris is here! You up for a bit of fun?" Aramin asked Chris, a mischievous grin creeping u0p to his face.
"Oh, you know me. Whatcha got in plan?" Chris asked, as Aramin whispered something in his ear, and soon he too was smiling.
Jesh sighed, "We're barely starting this year and here, you two are creating trouble already."
"Aww, be quiet mom! It's not like it'll hurt anyone!" Chris said playfully, as Aramin nodded eagerly.
Never taking his eyes off of Cross, Chris put on a pair of gloves, and began rubbing his gloved hands together at a fast pace.
After awhile of rubbing, Aramin asked, "Think you got enough?"
"Oh…yeah." Chris smiled, as he took off a glove, and modeled his hands into a gun-like fashion. Closing one eye as he got a clear view of Cross. "Bang." After saying the word, a small little bolt of lightning emitted from Chris' finger and was fired straight at Cross, giving him a shock form behind. Chris and Aramin burst out in laughter as Cross got shocked from their little prank.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Wha-What the hell was that?" Cross growled, as he turned around to see both Chris and Aramin laughing uncontrollably. "Heh, if you play with fire you're gonna get burned!" Cross smirked, as he concentrated a small fireball into the palm of his hands and threw it at Chris, upon reaching Chris, it quickly singed his shirt.
"Oh, ho, ho, so this dude wants to play eh," Chris grinned as he rubbed his hands together to get enough static to fire at Cross. "Go already! Less you wanna be fired too!" He told Aramin. Aramin took the hint as he ran around to reach Sephie.
"Sorry Sephie, I'll see ya around!" Cross said hastily as he ran after Chris.
"Oh, Than-"
"No need to thank me. I wanted to help out!" Aramin said as he appeared before Sephie, who thought completely surprised kept her composure.
"Not. You." Sephie stated, as she walked away from Aramin.
"See," Jesh sighed, "I told you she wasn't a damsel in distre-
"Be quiet, Jesh! My D.I.D. senses are tingling!" Aramin replied with a grin as he ran off once more.
"Ahh…Man…is there no stopping him?" Jesh sighed as he wearily followed Aramin.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile, in the back of the crowd of pupils…
"Hehehe, your pretty good kid." Chris said, his cloak and outfit singed in some parts.
"Likewise, and the name's not kid, it's Cross." Cross grinned, tossing a small fireball about in his hand, his outfit and cloak also somewhat singed by the little bolts.
"Heh. Well then…" Chris grinned, as he modeled his hand once again into a gun fashion and pointed it at Cross.
In an instant bolts and fireballs were flying around in the back of the crowd and no one seemed to notice. Until an unsuspecting teacher came out of her room to witness the event.
"WHAT IN THE WORLD!" She cried out angered, surprising both Chris and Cross, as they seized their attacks.
"He did it!" They both said in unison, pointing at each other.
"We mean, they did it!" Once again in unison, pointing at the crowd, just to realize, they weren't too far from it.
"Who are you two right now! I demand to know!" the teacher cried out angrily, as she made her way to the both of them.
Both looked at each other, as a grin came to their faces followed by a curt nod, and in an instant, they launched their attacks at the teacher, surprising her, but not hurting her, instead angering her even more, but it bought enough time for both Chris and Cross to make a speedy getaway and lose her in the crowd of pupils, so that they may continue their little duel somewhere else.
'This is some first day!' Cross thought as he ran through the crowd.
