Ok, yes, I know, it took me forever to update. So, just to tell you, you may see some characters that in their shows are dead or something or perhaps shouldn't be here... but oh well, they are alive again because i used my super awesome ninja author powers to bring them back! And, as for the Innocence group, I'm sure I already mentioned it, but it's my own story that has a character based off Near-- who is now going to be Near-- in it. I'm using a couple of my friend, Wolfy, and my stories for this. By the way, if you thought Marcia to be annoying in the last chapter, she's even more so in this one. And she's mean too.That bitch-- though she's based off me... Well, it is partly my fault she's so men to Near now. But I'll make it all better later. Once again, this couldn't have been done without her. So thanks Wolf Wolf!
Disclaimer- Obviously I don't own anything, except this fanfiction, Marcia, Jason, Derek, and Alex.
Chapter 2- Continuation of the first day
There was a silence. Marcia reverted to taking out a notebook and scribbling words and pictures all over it, while Near did... nothing really unusual to him. All he was doing was taking out some case files and looking over them.
"Perfect. So easy." The two commented simultaneously, though doing different things to pass time, Marcia finished her picture and Near already realized the answers to a case, easy one though(for him! Ah, how I love Near!)
"Hey, Marcia, you didn't say anything. Not even a 'hi'!" Derek complained. He's been sitting next to near on the side opposite from Marcia
"Umm, sorry, h-hi Derek," Marcia greeted.
"Marcia! Yes! Hello!" Who was that? It's a wonder...
"Hello, love." Came the reply.
"SHE CALLED ME LOVE!!!!" Jason cheered, he was sitting next to Derek, and Alex was next to Jason. The row was almost full except for the one at the very end on the left side by Marcia.
"Love, it's not meant as in... A romantic feeling of affection but rather as an indication of a close friendship." Near pointed out. Marcia smiled at Near.
"Thanks." He nodded.
"Hi, Marcia." Alex said.
"Hey, Lex, how ya doing?" Marcia asked her friend. Alex wasn't really that shy when around people she knew, or was friends with, save for sometimes around( most of the times) Derek. Hmm, still wonder why?
"Fine. So, guess better prepare for class. It starts soon. By the way, I heard you... got a little angry at Yagami- Kun, is it true?"
"Alexandria, I'm hurt. Really, I am in just about the most somber mood you could ever imagine. Do you not know me by now?"
Alex seemed to have a unsure expression on her face.
"LOL, jk." Marcia said.
"You spend way to much time on the phone now, you know that? You used to think too high of yourself to ever degrade yourself to using such... terrible vocabulary." Near pointed out.
"Right, sorry. Slap me next time I do that, Mr. Know- it- all. Oh wait, no your not, L is!" After seeing Near's face when she said that comment, the girl burst into laughter. Near ignored her, ugh, L again. He had nothing against L, after all, he used to look up to L. Like an idol. But... but, it was just... different. He didn't hate L, but right now, he didn't favor him either. Very complicated.
"HI CLASS!!!!"
"Will they stop with that!!" Mello complained.
Rosette, Chrono, Azmaria, Ed, Winry, and Alphonse all walked in and plopped themselves down into the second row, taking up the entire space. Winry sat to the far left end of the row, Ed sat next to her, Rosette sat next to him,(not a good idea) Chrono sat next to her, Az sat next to him, leaving Al at the other end.
"Hey, Ed, Rosette, why do you guys look so tired? Did you get into a tough Pokemon battle?!" Ash asked eagerly. Rosette rolled her eyes, but Ed spoke. "Ash, we don't Pokemon battle. I'm a alchemist, as you know, and Rosette's a... what... stripper maybe?"
"WHAT THE HELL DID YOU JUST SAY?!" Rosette leaped across her desk to punch Ed. He jumped out of the way by using his hand to push off the desk. When Rosette's fist collided with the desk, she cried out in pain. "ARGH, I AM GOING TO KILL YOU!!!!!"
"YEAH RIGHT!! COME TRY!!" Ed provoked her, and it was working. Everyone could feel a fight coming. Rosette raised another fist, Ed's metal arm was gleaming from the sun's ray shining through the classroom windows, and he was ready for a fight. Both rivals charged at each other. And their attacks would've hit too, had it not been for Sasuke. The ninja suddenly appeared in a puff of smoke.
Sasuke caught both fist before they managed to land a hit. "Sasuke! What?!" Rosette growled.
"Class is starting now. In the hallways I saw someone approaching, I only caught a glimpse of him. But I know he was a teacher," Sasuke pointed out.
This was enough to get Rosette to hurry back to her seat and the same for Ed. Naruto and Sakura appeared through puffs of smoke seconds later.
"Hey," May started. "Where is the rest of your crew, Naruto?"
Sakura spoke up for him. "They didn't come. On a mission, I think."
"WHOA, WHOA! HOLD THE PHONE! YOU MEAN... NEJI WON'T BE COMING?" Marcia yelled. Sakura shook her head sadly in reply and Marcia was about to have an emotional outburst.
"My Neji!" She cried. Near, who was next to her, was beginning to get very irritated.
"At least Ed, Chrono, L, Drew, and Sasuke are all here!" Marcia reasoned.
"What about Near?" Alex inquired.
"What about Near? He doesn't matter! L does!" Marcia replied, earning a glare from the small boy. She gave him a puzzled look as if to say, what?
Sakura, Naruto, and Sasuke sat down in the row after Ed and Rosette's groups. Sasuke was at the very left end, Sakura next to him, and Naruto sitting in the seat beside her.
And suddenly... suddenly everyone rushed to be in their seats, wanting to be prepared as the teacher was about to enter. Even Marcia and Near, and Ed and Rosette stopped their bickering. If a pencil was to drop, it would probably be the loudest sound in the room. The teacher entered...
"Hello, I'm going to be your home room teacher, I am Touta Matsuda!"
L's mouth was agape, Light banged his head on his desk, Misa, Takada, and Mikami gasped, Mello just looked like he wanted to kill someone, and Near's eyes widened in shock. But they weren't the only one's who were shocked. Everyone else in the room knew about Matsuda and everyone had agreed on one word that described him: idiot.
"Yo, daug, that is really messed up," Pikachu commented, though everyone was too shocked to notice.
"Um, well, I can tell that we'll have a great year together!" Matsuda said cheerfully.
Silence.
"You suck!" Someone shouted. Matsuda laughed nervously, he even knew this would not be an easy year, for him at least.
"What are we going to do?" Takada questioned.
"Well, usually you guys would do your homework or something in this class," Matsuda answered back.
"But we have no homework, Matsuda-san, it's the beginning of the year," L pointed out.
"Well, uh, talk or gossip or something... actually, I got a idea! I'll print out work to give you!"
"BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Rosette yelled as she threw paper balls and pencils at him. "NO WORK!" Rosette chanted.
"NO WORK! NO WORK! NO WORK!" The rest of the class cheered and cheered. Paper balls, pens, pencils, books, and even a shoe, was all thrown at Matsuda.
"Calm down! Calm down!" Matsuda tried but to no avail. "I'm going to call security!" That worked.
"Who would come then?" Al thought aloud. A image of Riza Hawkeye came to mind, and Ed and Winry must've been thinking the same thing because they both shuddered.
"Our main security guard this year is Yagami Soichiro, Light-kun's father."
Edward, Alphonse, and Winry all sighed in relief. Light's father wasn't much of a problem.
"Well... that's not much of a threat anymore... calling security, that is. Why not Riza, she was a much better security guard?" Drew, of the Pokemon group, inquired.
"Shut up, Drew!" Winry ordered the young coordinator. Drew shrugged in a nonchalant way.
"That wouldn't be a bad idea, but Ms. Hawkeye has other business to attend to," Matsuda told his students. Edward smirked. "Like baby-sitting the colonel or Mr. Mustang, right?" Ed and Mustang never got along very well, since they always pick fights with one another.
"I guess. Well class, I'll let you do whatever you want for now(excluding fighting, killing, destroying school property, battling, writing names in death notes, etc, etc.) And then I know you'll just love to have me as your home room teacher!" Matsuda declared.
BBBRRRRRRRIIIIIIIINNNNNNGGGG
Matsuda sighed. "I guess that's the bell, you may head to your next class."
Students jumped from off their seats and ran for the door as if their lives depended on it. They were like a whole stampede of Rhinos.
Seigaku High School was slightly different than others. And that's besides the different schedules and classes. It was for 'special' students. Ninjas, Alchemist, Trainers, Tamers, Detectives, Demons, Nuns, Mafia members, Demon hunters, Vampire hunters, Shinigami, Soul Reapers, Monsters, etc, all of those things went to this strange school. For the school to keep it's unusual students occupied, it added unusual classes. That's what the kids enjoyed so much about the school(except for the ones who still didn't want to come..cough, cough Rosette.) And, as mentioned before, the schedule was different too. Plus, the various grades interacted more with each other. It, all in all, was a satisfying high school to it's students.
"CRAP! What do they want from me?!?! I can't come back here! It's to much for my young, adolescent mind to bear! Oh, how they torture us. Most of us, our fellow students, are to incompetent and gullible to comprehend the lurid and macabre tales they tell us in our next class–SOCIAL STUDIES! How truly terrifying it is! And the pressure they put down on us– Horrifying! How tragic it must be– when a student fails one of those dreadful test given to us, it causes a severe blow to their self esteem. Does that mean they are condemned to a sequestered life of misfortune and failure?! That they think, their minds turn to the only escape out of their hell-hole is their doom?! Possibly suicide?! My deductions tell me this is 2 correct in some cases. Did anyone ever think about the people in that 2 category?!? Did they?! HUH?!?!?!" Marcia continued her rambling about all the bad things that could happen from going to school, shoot outs, killing, suicide, etc. And that was only the beginning. Of coarse, she did this all the time whenever she had to go back to school.
"Marcia, I will say this as kindly as possible, shut the hell up!" Near snapped. He usually suppressed his emotions, but he couldn't stand her complaining any longer.
L was originally eating a cupcake, but like everyone else, he was shocked to see Near even sound so angry, and the cupcake fell unnoticed from his hand. Realizing his mistake, L went to pick up the cupcake, and upon seeing it was squashed, a great feeling of sadness and loss struck him.
L sighed. "That was uncommon."
"What can I say, I bring out the worst of Near," Marcia pointed out while inching closer to Near. Now she spoke in a more gentle, lower tone. "Now do you do that with all girls, or am I just special?"
"You're nothing." Was her reply.
"Why can't you be nicer?"
"I will attempt being 'nicer' when you try acting smarter."
"I AM smart!"
"Right. Yes, of coarse you are."
"Was that sarcasm?!"
"No, why would that thought cross your mind."
"No seriously, because I couldn't tell." Marcia wasn't used to seeing Near express sarcasm, so she was slightly lost.
"Why don't you tell me, after all, you are a genius."
"Shut up!"
"I think I'm going to get a migraine," Light said. Misa ran to Light and hugged him for dear life.
"Light, I'll do anything to be useful for you. I could get some pain relief pills or those headache ones!"
"Misa talks about being 'useful' to Light again... 19 chance that Yagami Light is Kira and Amane Misa is the second Kira..." L thought aloud.
"Hey, guys, we're about to pass our Social Studies class..." Alex spoke softly. The Death Note and Innocence groups were walking together to their next class, seeing as they all had the same thing. While walking down the schools white halls, with the occasional posters and many classrooms, the groups were talking to each other. Alex, however, had been paying attention to where they should be going and knew they were passing the class, so she hoped to get the group's attention.
"Um, guys..." She tried again but to no avail.
"Kami- sama! I am pleased we all have the same class. Evil bullies all around the school shall be PUNISHED!" Mikami swore. Light gave him a strange look and then nodded slowly.
"Mikami-san, what have I told you about addressing me as 'God'?" Light asked, just to put up a little act in front of L.
"Yes, sorry Yagami, I didn't mean for it to seem as if I was addressing you that way, I didn't mean it like that... I... was..."
"Thanking God up above that we all have the same class," Takada cut in. "Right, Teru?"
"Yes."
"Percentage is raised to 21... Mikami Teru called Light- kun 'God'... and mentioned punishing people... but it seems almost too obvious... as if Light- kun didn't instruct Mikami about that...hmm.." L continued thinking while pressing his thumb to his lips.
"Marcia, I thought you told me to be nicer, did you not?" Near asked.
"Well, your not being nice! I can surely detect sarcasm in your voice!"
"Really, I am trying. Why can't you believe me?"
"Near! Then... then... fine! Your being nice! Whatever. But I haven't acted any differently, so I'm not 'acting smarter!'"
"Don't call yourself stupid, Marcia. It may seem true, but you must push on. Someday, you may persevere, no matter how stupid, incompetent, and annoying others say you are."
"Nobody has said that to me..."
"Hey, um, guys... we passed the class... only 30 more seconds until the bell rings..." Alex said.
The conversations continued.
"EVERYBODY! IF YOU DON'T FREAKING LISTEN TO ME RIGHT NOW, I'M GOING TO MAKE YOU SO SORRY FOR IT THAT YOU'D RATHER BE IN HELL!!! WE GOT TO GO TO OUR DAMN CLASS NOW! GET TO IT!"
Sure, everybody was shocked, but a little scared too, so nobody dared question Alex's new authority.
The group rushed to class...
The FullMetal Alchemist and Chrono Crusade groups were already seated, as well as the Naruto group. Everyone currently in that class was seniors. The two groups that were there were seated in the same way they were in the previous class except now the CC and FMA groups sat in the first row and the Naruto group in the second. However, there were 7 rows.
When the Death Note and Innocence groups came, they sat as they did before too. The DN group took up one row, and the Innocence took up another. In total, only 4 rows out of 7 were used.
The teacher, Remington, stood by his desk. "I'm sure most of you already know me, but I am—"
"REMINGTON!!!" Marcia squealed.
"Father Remington! Your going to teach us this year?!" Rosette asked eagerly.
"Yes, I expect you won't cause any trouble, right?"
Rosette started blushing. "Um.. N-no, father, of coarse not." Her eyes were bright with happiness at the thought of Remington teaching her.
"N-no, father, of coarse not." Ed repeated in a mocking tone. "Acting all sweet now, eh?"
"Oh, Edward, shut up!" Rosette tried saying as kindly as possible, though she would've liked to just punch his lights out more. "Please?"
"Oh, of coarse, dearest friend Rosette."
"Good, bean sprou– I mean, Edward."
Remington looked pleased that his students were going to at least attempt being good.
"OKAY! We will begin our class by--"
The door swung open. Everyone turned their heads to see who was there in curiosity. There Dante stood, the demon hunter himself. He sat in the very last row alone.
"Dante, correct? I heard from your home room teacher you were absent," Remington pointed out. Then his eyes narrowed. "Or did you skip that class?"
"I came late, I'm here now anyway. Let's get this class over with." Dante said cooly.
"Yes. Right. As I was saying, we will start our class by–"
Snoring, very loud too, could be heard from the last row. The only person there was Dante. He was leaning back, with his feet on the desk, and his eyes sealed shut. Obviously, he was sleeping. Amazing how it all happened so quickly, but what else would you expect from him?
"Dante! What are you doing?" Remington questioned angrily.
Dante's eyes opened and he yawned. "Tch, something wrong?"
"Stay awake during my class."
"I'll try.."
"Anyway," Remington started. "We will– "
The familiar snoring was heard yet again.
"DANTE!! GET THE HELL UP AND DON'T SLEEP DURING FATHER REMINGTON'S CLASS!" Rosette yelled. Remington looked over to Rosette.
"Rosette, please try to keep your voice down! And call me Mr. Remington, I'm a teacher now."
"Y-yes, fath– Mr. Remington."
"I will start this class by... no interruptions? Okay, I will start by– "
There was a crackling noise as L reached into a bag of potato chips he was holding. Remington glared at L and studied him, he also noticed his odd way of sitting, like that Near kid.
"Ryuzaki, right? You do know there is no eating in my class, don't you?"
"If I don't consume at least 5 lbs of sugar a day, I can't think properly."
"Ahh, yes. And your way of sitting?"
"My deductions will not be as accurate, the rates will fall by 40," L explained.
Remington sighed. "Yes, I believe I don't want to know..." Remington continued. "Well, ANY MORE interruptions?!?!"
Jason raised his hand. "Yes, Jackson?"
"It's Jason."
"Sorry. Yes, Jason?"
"I need to cough. Can I?"
"Permission granted."
"Cough, cough, cough, cough."
"Ok, anyway– "
"Cough, cough, cough, cough, cough. I think that's it."
"Thank you. So– "
"cough, cough, cough!! Wait..."
Remington sat down at his desk, becoming frustrated.
"COUGH, COUGH, COUGH, COUGH, COUGH!!! Ok, done"
"Yes, thank you for that. I will now begin attendance!" Remington spat out the words as quickly as possible and was surprised to see there were no more interruptions.
"Bleach group here? Nope. Guess they're absent. Chrono Crusade? Yes, Rosette, I see you and Chrono too, plus Azmaria. How about CardCaptors? No, okay. Death Note? Good, everyone is here. Devil May Cry? Hmm, Dante, how could I forget? FullMetal Alchemist? I swear that child(Ed) gets shorter and shorter... Innocence? Well, the students know you guys but I've never seen you. Marcia, Derek, Alex, and Jason, plus Near is part of this one too. In The Shadows? Haven't heard of them either. Oh, well. Is In The Shadows here? No. Moonlight Phantom? New one again. You guys here? Nope. Naruto? Yes, I see the three of you, but many are missing. Tsubasa Chronicle, are you guys here? I guess not. Alright. We may need more desk... Okay! It seems many of you are missing, probably skipping or 'sick' or they asked they're parents not to come. Hmm, that all seems like it's in the category of skipping. Then again, they could be off killing Hollows, doing discreet missions, traveling to different worlds, finding Clow Cards, killing monsters or demons, Fighting Evil, eh, whatever it is you kids do these days. So, time to start class!"
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, Rosette's mind screamed, but she didn't want to say it out loud in front of Remington.
SNNNNOOOOORRRRREEEE
Dante fell asleep, yet again.
"Some never change, eh Dante?" L inquired.
"Nope." And with that, Dante drifted off, to awake only when the bell rings.
Later on...
BRRRRIIIIIINNNNNNGGGGG
"We've been through 3 classes now, heading for our 4th! And this day just gets weirder!" Winry told Rosette.
"Yup, and first we had Matsuda in our home room, then Father Remington in Social Studies, Math with Lust, Etiquette with Patty Lowell– "
"Err, you had etiquette along with Dante, Mello, Misa, Mikami, Misty, Ash, Drew, Paul, and Naruto, I had woodshop with Alphonse, Edward, May, Max, Brock, Takada, and Near."
"Yeah, and I had cooking with Alex, Jason, Sasuke, Dawn, Azmaria, Ryuzaki, Sakura, and L. Even though he loves toys, I didn't suspect that.. Uhh... that person what was his name again? Well, that they would take woodshop. Hmm, who was it? Hold on.. I know this... Umm..." Marcia said.
Near approached her. "You mean me?"
"OH YEAH! NEARIE! IT WAS YOU!"
"... Can you just be quiet, Marcia? You annoy me. And to be blunt, I don't like you continuously hanging near me."
Marcia looked slightly taken aback. She blinked a couple of times in confusion before bursting into laughter. "You? You? Nearie- kun, you think I was hanging around you? Of coarse not! It was L! Why would I bother you if I could hang around him? Sorry, Nearie, but I have better things to do than follow some little probably Emo kid who needs a hug and someone to care for him so he can actually grow some feelings. Feelings. I bet that word sounds so foreign to you, doesn't it? The way you act, it seems as if you don't want anyone around you, so why should I bother? Oh, look, there's L! See ya later, Nearie!" And with that, the girl took off, heading in the direction she saw her idol.
"Aww, Near, she didn't have to be so harsh. Just try to understand, she thinks you really don't want her around. So, she sticks with Ryuzaki. Sometimes, she goes a little far, but she doesn't mean it," Alex told her friend. "I don't care. Why do you guys think I do? Marcia is weird and annoying and devious, she continuously bugs me to no end. Why would I care? Bye Winry, Rosette, Alex." Near headed towards his next class, journalism.
In Class
"I am Mr. Maes Hughes. I will be your journalism teacher. I would go over the rules, but I'm sure you all heard that like 20 times earlier today."
"YES!!" The class answered back to their teacher simultaneously.
"But, there's no harm in hearing them again."
"Awww..." Someone in the class groaned.
"... and those are all the rules.(A/N: Too lazy to do em all again) Now, I want you all to do a report on someone you find interesting and do at least 10 pages. Hand it in on Friday."
"THAT MANY? YOUR KIDDING, RIGHT?" Jason bellowed.
"No, I'm not. Perhaps you need some inspiration?"
Everyone in the lass excluding the Innocence group who didn't know much about Hughes shot Jason a warning look. However, he just became all the more curious.
"Maybe I do," Jason said with a vacillating tone. He still wasn't sure about the whole thing. He just knew he figured it would be best to find out why Hughes is considered weird and crazy for himself.
"Yes... WELL THEN JUST LOOK AT THESE ADORABLE PICTURES OF MY DAUGHTER ALICIA!!! ISN'T SHE JUST THE CUTEST LITTLE THING?!?!?"
Hughes stormed up to Jason's desk in the back and started shoving pictures of his four year old daughter Alicia in the poor soul's face.
"LOOK! THIS IS THE SPECIAL SWIM- SUIT ADDITION!! ISN'T SHE JUST SO CUTE?! AND RIGHT HERE— LOOK, SHE'S TRYING TO HELP MOMMY CLEAN THE HOUSE!! AND LOOK AT THIS ONE! SHE'S HOLDING HER GIANT TEDDY BEAR! AWW!! DON'T YOU JUST LOVE HER? SHE'S SO ADORABLE, RIGHT? RIGHT? RIIIIGGGGHHHTTT?!"
Jason sweatdropped. He was warned. He should have listened.
Man, this dude's crazy...
"Uhhhh... umm.. Yeah?"
"I KNOW! Now... is that enough inspiration for you or do you need more?"
"N-no sir, I'm fine."
Dismissal Time(A/N: Okay, there's more classes than 4, but I'm getting lazy)
"Hey! Light, are you going to work on the investigation today?" Misa asked her 'boyfriend.' L was next to her, eyeing Light. "Yes Light, shall we?"
"No, I need to study, plus I believe that you already are working on it by still coming to my school," Light pointed out. L nodded in reply.
"Yes. See you tomorrow, Misa- chan, Light-kun," L walked through the school doors and therefore exiting the school. The great detective headed towards a black limousine that was waiting for him with the driver as Watari.
"YAY!!! WE'RE OUT OF THAT PURGATORY PLACE!!" Rosette cheered.
"You do know we have to come back tomorrow.. Right?" Chrono reminded her.
"NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! DAMN IT!!!!! WHY?!?! WWWHHHHHHYYYY?!?!?!"
Ok, so sue me. This is a terrible chapter and very rushed. But I didn't want it to become too long, and I do that a lot. But, I'll try better on the next chapter; and hopefully, that one will actually be good! Bye!
