Chapter One: Let the School Year Begin
Author's Notes: And here we go! Nothing much to say really. Shayla belongs to..well, Shayla. Daryl and Luke belong to me. Oh and, yes Daryl and Luke are japanese and were given japanese names by their parents; however, they decided to be different and gave themselves english names XD Such little rebels.
For a school that was neither good or bad, Konoha High had a nice campus and a large amount of students attending. The building itself had three floors, all of which were filled with classrooms. The first floor belonged to the freshmen and sophomores, the second went to the juniors, and the third was for the egotistical seniors. The school had its own track and field for the various sports it was able to serve; there was even an indoor pool, though it was a little small. In the eyes of the students, it was a nice public school that had never failed them before.
On the outside, the brick walls and clean glass shined in the sunlight along with its leaf logo painted on the front of the building. Students lingered in groups on the grass and close to the door, comparing schedules with friends and staying away from their classes for just a moment longer. Some of girls were complaining about their school uniform,while the boys just stared their bare legs. It was this scene that two transfer students from Kiri High School were staring mindlessly at.
"I bet we're the only new students this year," Daryl grumbled as she stared down at her new class schedule.
Her older brother, Luke, paid no attention to her concern. "Whatever. Hey, do my ears look okay?" Of course, the boy was not referring to his natural ears, which were hidden beneath thick locks of black hair. By "ears", he meant the fake brown cat ears that rest on the top of his head. They looked real, which was what scared most people. Before the little sister could even answer, someone else tugged on one of the boy's ears.
"Are these allowed in the school uniform?" A brown-skinned girl asked as she pushed a stray lock of purple hair behind her ears.
"No idea," Luke admitted before he began to sway his hips and rub his own sides. "But they make me look sexy! Don't you think?" he grinned at the purple-haired girl.
She stared at him blankly before mumbling, "Uh...yeah...sure." Without another word, she flicked her hair back and ran off to find her advisory, obviously freaked out by her new, furry, acquaintance.
Daryl punched her brother's arm before snapping at him, "Nice going dick! Scare off the first person who decided to talk to us!" Luke let out a pathetic "ow" before rubbing his arm. Not only did his little sister look like a boy, but she acted like one. The only thing that made her a woman was her vagina since her boobs were too small for anyone to think they even existed.
"Not my fault she can't handle my sexiness!" It was then that Luke caught sight of someone who perked his interest. The student had red hair that was pushed up into spikes and a lean body that the black uniform coat hid from view. The cat-eared boy patted his sister's shoulder and smirked, "I'll be back later." he stalked around the bodies of students, leaving his sister to fend for herself.
The girl rolled her eyes, knowing her brother would not come back for her. She glared at her schedule and mumbled to herself, "Might as well get to class."
After five minutes, the bell rang; warning all students to get to class before they got in trouble. Most of the students began running to their destinations, while a few decided to linger around. A blonde girl was whispering to a pink-haired girl by the lockers, both of them unaware that the warning bell had already gone off.
"Did you hear about the new girl?" Ino, the blonde, whispered to her on-and-off friend.
Sakura, the pink-haired girl, rolled her eyes at the gossip the girl was about to depart on. "No. I didn't even know there was a new kid here."
A wicked grin went across Ino's face as she spoke, "Don't worry. She's not hard to miss." Again, Sakura rolled her eyes before she noticed Naruto, the school's dumb ass, sleeping against his locker. The girl kicked his shin, immediately waking him from his slumber. The blonde boy grabbed shin and made pained hissing noises.
"What the hell Sakura-chan?" Naruto complained, finally putting his leg down gently.
The girl put her hands on her hips and began to scold him, "What do you think you're doing, sleeping like that? We have to get to class before-" It was then that the final bell went off, alerting all students who were not in classrooms that they were now tardy.
"That was the warning bell, right?" Ino asked nervously as the three began to race up the stairs nervously.
"Only one way to find out," Naruto giggled with a big grin on his face. His happy mood was rewarded with a punch to the head from Sakura.
"Don't laugh! If I'm late, it'll be your fault Naruto! I can't afford to ruin my perfect attendance!" She whined, feeling she may burst into tears if she were late on the first day of school. Her parents would kill her if they found out she were ever late! The three of them stopped in front of the room with numbers "109" painted on the window. It was Naruto who opened the door and strolled into class like he owned the place.
"Sorry we're late!" Naruto announced loudly, earning an aggravated glare from the teacher. The blonde went to his seat calmly as the two girls went to theirs with hurried and embarrasses steps.
The teacher sighed and scratched at his small beard. He would let the girl's tardiness slide, just this once; however, it was no surprise that Naruto was late. He would have to have a talk with the boy after class. "Alright," he started, standing up and going to the front of the class. "Welcome to History class 109! It's nice to see all of you again. This year we have three new students, so I want you all to give them a warm welcome."
A boy with spiked red hair and yellow eyes jumped out of his seat and asked loudly, "Any girls!"
"Sit your ass back down!" The teacher snapped. "But yes, two girls and one boy. Alright, those of you who are new, please come to the front of the class. And introduce yourselves." He took a few steps back as three students stood up.
The boy wore fake cat ears and kept his hands shoved in his coat pocket. Though Asuma was certain the boy was trying to go for a "bad-ass" look, the giant grin on his face ruined the whole thing. One girl looked more like a boy cross-dressing in the girl's school uniform. Her top looked one size too big and hid any traces of curves or breasts, assuming she had any; and the short brown hair was not helping her situation at all. The other girl was definitely different from the rest of...well, the entire school. The main difference about her was her brown skin, which signaled to everyone she was a foreigner. Her bright purple hair was tied back into a ponytail, revealing how calm she really was in this situation.
It was the cat-eared boy who spoke up first in a confident and energetic voice. "Takeo Luke!" His eyes drifted to the red-haired boy who had spoken during Asuma's announcement and added, "At your service." The red-haired boy cringed at the come-on and decided to keep his attention on the brown-skinned girl's body.
The brown-haired girl barely spoke loud enough for the class to hear. "...Takeo Daryl..."
"I'm Shayla Sumiori!" The other girl spoke almost with as much confidence as the boy.
Asuma sat down at his desk as the three students just stood there, waiting for him to tell them to sit down. He honestly did not want to start any kind of work on the first school day. So, he got out a pack of cigarettes and took on out. "Well...tell us a little bit about yourselves. Don't be shy." He lit the little white stick and shoved the lighter back into his pocket once one end was burning brightly.
"Um," Daryl, the girl with no chest, spoke up. "Isn't that illegal on school grounds?"
The teacher glared up at her and took a deep inhale from the cigarette before exhaling a large cloud of smoke. "You want an 'A' in my class?"
"Yes."
"Then you'll stay quiet miss." He gave her a warning smile before inhaling the sweet nicotine once more. The girl looked down at the floor before mumbling a "Yes sir...".
As if he had no idea what had just happened, Luke announced gleefully to the class, "I'm bi, so if anyone's interested, I'm available!" He gave everyone a playful wink, but an awkward silence was his only reply. Even the teacher knew that was a bit over-the-top.
"Alright," Asuma started nervously. Way to be...open? Heh..."
"Heh...heh," Shayla began, thinking of a way to try to break the awkward tension. "Um, I'm from across the seas, so-"
"So that means you sit on your toilets!" Naruto interrupted.
"Uh..." Shayla looked at him in confusion, wondering if that was how he always acted. "Yeah..."
The blonde boy stuck out his tongue, "Gross."
"Don't say that!" Sakura scolded him once again and and smacked him over the head. "Be nice!"
"Sakura, keep your hands to yourself," Asuma sighed in a bored tone, "And Naruto, just shut up. Anyway, you three have a seat."
Immediately, Luke took the first seat next to the red-haired boy. He stared at him like a drunk man stared at a prostitute and said, "You have a nice hair color...I like it."
The boy rolled his eyes. "Thanks..." he grumbled before scooting his desk away.
Shayla took a seat next to Naruto, who leaned over to her with a curious expression. "So...you don't take your shoes off when you're at home either, huh?"
She paused for a moment, unsure of whether he would burst out laughing or announce to the whole class her cultural lifestyle. "...No."
"Weird..."
Daryl decided to take a seat next to Shayla, figuring she could make a friend. "So...where are you from exactly? Europe? America?"
"I'm from France," Shayla responded with a smile before adding, "Yes. I sit on toilets."
"I don't mind," Daryl grinned, "Everyone has their different cultures and traditions. That just happens to be yours." She smiled at Shayla, "If you need help with anything, don't hesitate to ask me!"
Shayla sighed to herself in relief at meeting someone nice on the first day of school. "Thanks! I will!"
"Alright class," Asuma grumbled as he went to the chalkboard. "Open your books up to page fifty-six."
