"Yo, name is Urameshi, Urameshi Yusuke" The strange newcomer announces to the class.
"Hope we can all get along." Everybody in class was now murmuring amongst each other. The transfer stands before his peers, anybody could tell, even a 5 year old kid, that he is being judged.
Mercilessly the class has decided he is a weirdo based upon his looks. He looks like an otaku and he is now labeled as one. The excitement of a new student quickly dies down.
"Hey teach" The teacher, who is now unpacking his bag to prepare for the lesson, looks back at Yusuke. "Where should I go sit down?"
The teacher looks out to the class, surveying the room to see where he can put new student.
"Hmm lets see, it seems like we don't really have anymore seats for you, but since Yuki is away today you can sit in her seat over there."
The teacher points to an empty seat near the windows, beside the seat to the right is a fairly normal looking female high school student. To its front another high school girl with her hair in twin tails, behind it a huge high school student who looks as if he has been playing sports his whole life. To its left however, is a beautiful young student. Her long, jet black hair hanging to the middle of her back. Yusuke feels lucky as he lets out a small grin.
Yusuke, after examining the location of his seat, finally starts walking towards it. Fidgeting with his glasses as he walks by the students, he could not really see the glares he was receiving. He finally reaches his desk. He looks at the beautiful girl, she is distracted, looking out the window.
"Hello there" Yusuke awkwardly calls out to the girl. "We're going to be neighbors, at least for today."
The girl looks at him and smiles, "Welcome, I hope we get along." Her smile could melt any man's heart. "My name is Shimohira Reika." She extends her hand to him.
He smiles back, reaches for her hand and shakes it. "Nice to meet you too Reika." He doesn't feel any spiritual energy from her, could he have been mistaken? Yusuke sits down, unaware of the glares of his male classmates as he got to touch Reika Shimohira.
The teacher finally starts class. "Alright everyone lets do some math." Everyone in unison let out a big, "Aww".
"Pssst" Yusuke looks around for the source of the noise.
"Psssst" Yusuke still cannot find where the noise is coming from.
"Hey newbie, behind you" Yusuke finally figures it out and looks back.
"You see that chick over there." The male classmates points over to Reika. "She is mine man, better keep your hands off her or else" He was careful not to let anybody know that he was threatening the new student already.
It was the first time Yusuke was threatened in a long time. He felt refreshed that someone was courageus enough to challenge him. "Oh I see, don't worry I don't plan to." He tries to calm his new found friend down. "By the way what was your name again?"
"It's Yamoto Shin." He glares at Yusuke. "You better remember it punk." Yusuke smiles at him as if to agree, but Shin knew better, Yusuke was mocking him.
The rest of the class were uneventful all the way through lunch. As the lunch bell rang, everybody in class breath a sigh of relief. 3 hours of class was just too much for anyone to handle.
Everybody crowds towards Reika, naturally as an idol she was one of the most popular kids in school.
"Hey Reika, what do you have for lunch today?"
"Hmm I think I'm gonna buy something from the cafeteria." Reika stands upand walk towards the door to go to the cafeteria. An entourage of 5 people follows her out.
"So Shin what do you think of the new student?" One of the male students asks Shin. Shin is a natural alpha dog. If Reika was admired by all the female students, Shin was the male counterpart. In short, they were the king and queen of the class.
"I don't like him. I wanna make him quit as soon as I can." Shin clenches his fist on the table.
"Hahaha." One Shin's lackey laughs. "You think you can beat your record with that other loser?" He asked his boss.
"You mean that taiwanese exchange student?"
"Yea, I think his name was Han Cheng" One of his three lapdogs answers him.
"What was it again? You made him quit in a week right?" Another barks as if to please their master.
"Yea, this time I'll make this pussy quit in 5 days." Shin lets out an evil grin. "Just look at him, I just have to tear his favourite manga in front of him and he'll cry like a baby." A shout interferes their meeting.
"Hey that sounded like Reika." Shin stands up and runs towards the scream. He runs through the door, as he exits he can already see the crowd forming in the stairs.
"Move away you stupid idiots!" The crowd clears a way for him. What he sees will forever be burned into his eyes.
It was Reika in the arms of the new transfer, Yusuke. He asks one of the students what happened.
"It was nothing, Reika just slipped and luckily the new transfer was there to catch her before anything bad happened to her." The student walks away. Shin's anger is now visible. The transfer is making moves on his girl. He waits until class is over before confronting the new transfer student.
Reika is now back on her own two feet.
"Thanks Yusuke"
"Naw, don't mention it. I wouldn't let anything happen to you like that"
The crowd dissipates and the bell signifying the end of lunch finally rings. The class resumes and ends without much incident. Finally the time to exact his revenge is here.
"Hey newbie come with me." He grabs Yusuke who was just packing his bag. "Follow me outside." He drags Yusuke by the collar out the door.
Reika just missed Shin and Yusuke as she comes into the classroom from a trip to the restroom.
"Don't you guys dare say anything to Reika." Shin's lackey tells the class in a soft voice. "Or else you'll experience the same thing." Shin's lackey follows their boss outside, smiling at Reika as they pass by her.
Reika blissfuly ignorant of what was happening to her saviour from earlier packs her bags and leaves class. She still had a couple of photoshoots to attend to today. That and you can never be to careful with Gantz around.
Shin's lackeys are ecstatic, they'll see someones face beaten to the ground again. They go down the stairs and go out the door towards the gym storage equipment. They know thats where Shin always goes to beat up would-be courters for Reika and Otaku's alike.
They finally see the outline of two humans, one of them was already on the ground unconcious.
"Hey, hey Shin! Don't tell us you already finished it" All three of them said laughingly.
Yusuke looks at them with glaring eyes, as their eyes met the three lackeys finally realized the gravity of the situation. The one on the ground knocked out was Shin and not the new transfer student. The transfer student didn't even look like he got hit, his clothes were still ironed flat and his glasses still unharmed on his face. The horrified looks on their faces just confirms with Yusuke that they were nothing but cowards who relied on the jock lieing down on the ground right now.
"What is this!?" They were confused, they didn't know what to do. "This can't be happening!" One of em turns around and runs and the other two followed shortly. As they turn around they see Yusuke is already blocking their way with a smirk on his face.
He walks towards the three horrified humans.
"Hahaha, where are you guys going?" Yusuke smiles at the terrified humans. "The fun is just beggining!" He disappears from their sight for a split second only to reappear right in front of their faces.
"If you guys want to live, you better not tell anyones about this little 'incident'" He takes off his glasses and puts it in his pocket. "You guys got that?"
"Y-y-yes" One of em said in a whimpering voice. Yusuke turns around and starts to walk away.
"Oh yeah!" he puts his hand up to the air like he remembered something. Yusuke turns around and looks at the three classmates of his.
"From this day onwards you guys are working for me now." The three could do nothing but nod in agreement.
"Hahahaha" Yusuke laughs playfully as he turns around. Yusuke walks away towards class to get his belongings as he puts on his glasses back on once again.
Yusuke mutters to himself, "Reika Shimohira, Target Found"
