This was what Hugh would like to call, a normal schooling day.
It all started with the very morning the two boys stood infront of their friend's desk in confusion.
Petashi scrunched his eyebrows up in confusion. Hugh frowned deeply at the smiling boy before him. Rakutsu hummed a happy tune. Hugh grumbled and kicked his chair. Rakutsu ignored him and took out his notebook as the teacher entered the class.
"Waaah Cheren san!" Petashi exclaimed at the teen before him. Cheren looked up and smiled at the boy. Hugh huffed in annoyance.
"Class, since your teacher might be running late this morning, as your trusty senior, I shall be the one taking your attendance okay?" Cheren yelled with authority. The class mumbled a few complaints but immediately shut up afterwards.
"Ah, it would seem that there is a new student coming to this class.." Cheren said holding out a notice from the school. Hugh narrowed his eyes at the notice, and at Rakutsu who seemed to be smirking at him. 'So that was what his happy mood was all about' he thought angrily. 'Must be a girl' was his final conclusion. He was then proven right when the door of the classroom opened up and a girl with long brown hair walked in nervously. she sucked in a breath and started to introduce herself and Rakutsu started scribling down unimportant things like her hobbies and favorite spots. He then promptly smirked when she mentioned her starsign and Hugh had to smack the boy on the head, earning a few protests from the girls sitting behind them.
Faitsu finished her introduction with a final sigh of relief and was then shown to her seat behind Rakutsu. The boy smiled and turned around to greet her but was soon returned with narrowed eyes of suspicion. She rolled her eyes and set her Foongus down which slapped Rakutsu's hand away from shaking hands with Faitsu.
Hugh watched the two converse with boredom, he for one was really not interested in new students or studying in general. What he wanted was to beat the daylights out of Team Plasma who stole his sister's Purrloin 10 years ago. But what pissed him off the most was the fact that they had suddenly dissappeared over a year ago, all the news and policemen could no find any trace of the missing organization at all.
"Hugh, are you going to greet her or what?" Rakutsu called from where he sat, gesturing to the new girl who nodded her head at him. Hugh temporarrily released his anger for a handshake, grumbling his name for her to hear. Rakutsu nodded in approval afterwards causing Hugh to kick his chair again.
Petashi came after the horde of girls who all ran to Faitsu to ask a few things subsided, he raised his hand as a greeting and Rakutsu could not force the poor boy to go on. Faitsu giggled at his actions, which made Petashi yelp and run back to his seat with a red face.
Cheren senpai gave the class their work to do so that he could go back to class and he left soon after. Rakutsu rested his head on his palm and scribbled a few words down on his workbook. Then smirked and turned back to look at Faitsu, scaring her in the process, her Foongus scolded him with a language he clearly could not understand so he pat the mushroom on the head to calm it down. Which only angered it further.
"So, Faitsu." He said "Where did you live before you came here again?" He asked slowly taking in her reaction. She only blinked "somewhere near Nuvema town if I remember correctly" she answered soon after. Rakutsu studied her eyes carefully waiting for some kind of reaction. But the action only seemed to make her red in the face. Rakutsu smiled afterwards and asked another question.
"Ahhh, that must have been nice." He said, and she nodded quietly. No good reactions coming from her it seemed.
"So did you have any cute friends who lived there? If so introduce me sometime hm?" He said. Faitsu bit her lower lip in thought then slowly laughed awkwardly." Ahh haha, I don't think they would want that" she said a little loudly. Rakutsu narrowed his eyes a smiled. "I see" he said and turned back to do his work. Hugh rolled his eyes at the boy and sighed in frustration. Math was haaaard.
Black stared at Cheren who stood infront of his table. "Whaaaa..." he mumbled with difficulty, his chin never leaving the top of the table. Cheren sighed and gave him a piece of paper. Black raised an eyebrow at him and took the paper from him.
"Student council president?" He said, voice filled with disinterest. White perked up immediately beside him. Bianca giggled infront of him.
"They nominated you" Cheren said simply. He walked back to his seat beside Bianca who only giggled at White's reaction. The girl grumbled at Black and snatched the paper from his hands. Studying the paper with a deadly glare.
Black frowned and slowly took the paper back, then proceeded to give it back to Cheren. "Don't want it" he said simply. Cheren smiled at his childhood friend with a smile. "Of course" he said. White , who was clearly not satisfied with his actions gave him a pout. Black blushed and looked away, which prompted Bianca to laugh louder. Cheren sighed and placed the paper back in his bag.
"Why didn't accept the offer!?" White said glaring at the boy, Black stuck is lower lip up in thought, then simply said "Wasn't interested." White sighed softly and punched him in the shoulder making him yelp in pain. "Boy genius" she muttered angrily at the boy. Cheren chuckled at them.
"Becoming a champion doesn't require a student council job" Black said to Cheren. "I know, I know" he said trying to stop his laughter, which was hard since Bianca was still giggling beside him.
"You're just laaaaaazy~" Bianca sang to him and Black shrugged. White rolled her eyes at him.
"Shuuuuut uppppppp" a boy beside White grumbled. Black leaned forward to look at the boy then snickered at him. "GOOD MORNING X" He yelled, startling the boy and those around him, White slapped him on the shoulder, "warning next time, please" she scolded.
X sighed and put on his headphones, then softly went back to sleep, beside him a blonde girl kicked his chair and told him to stay awake for the first day of school. Soon after, their teacher Miss Juniper entered the class to teach, earning a groan from the class?
Black yawned and leaned back on his seat, seemingly getting ready for a daydream. In his pocket, his munna tapped it's pokéball noisily. Today was going to be a slow day.
Faitsu Sneezed loudly and accepted the tissue her Foongus held out to her. Rakutsu's Dewott opened a careful eye at her and she apologized for waking him up. As the class continuedto chat, the door opened abruptly causing the whole class to stop their work and look up at the source. Rakutsu chocked on his water and glared at the person who walked through those doors.
Detective Looker stood tall and proud with his 'master' disguise on, he fumbled with his glasses and coughed into his fist to get attention.
"Class, as you know, your teacher is not in the condition to come to class today so I shall be taking over for a few months, is that clear?" He said.
" Hey, aren't you that detective?" A student from the back yelled. Looker stood even straighter and yelped. "Wha-what makes you say that!?"
"It is him! Detective Looker! Hey, I've seen you on tv before!" Another student yelled. Looker spluttered and reajusted his glasses again. "Child, I'm certain you have mistaken me with someone else?" He said, the pitch of his voice was getting higher by the minute. Rakutsu rolled his eyes, and behing him, Faitsu shifted nervously in her seat, infront of her, Hugh narrowed his eyes at the man. "Weirdo" he concluded.
Looker sighed and took of his disguise dramtically. "Yes! It is I, the great Looker! And uh, I'm actually here to look for someone.." He said walking over to Rakutsu's seat. Rakutsu sighed and let the man drag him out. The girls behind him yelling for the man to go easy on his delicate arms.
Once they were safely oustside the classroom, Rakutsu raised an eyebrow at the man. "Smart of you actually coming to my school just to look for me, Looker." he said to the man.
"I had no choice Rakutsu, the man who's teaching your class, he-" Looker explained but soon got cut off by a voice coming from behind him.
"Sorry to interrupt but is this class 3-2 ... oh!" The man said lifting his head up from the sheet of paper he held in his hands. Rakutsu nodded his head slowly, trying to take in every detail of the man before him. Although the only odd thing about him was his sense of style. ( i mean seriously, who wears their hairl like that?) Rakutsu seriously doubted the man with the blue curl was here just to look for a mere student, much less teach a class.
"Ah good, I was right then, quite sorry about the interruption earlier, you must be here for your son am I correct?" The man said turning to look at the detective. Looker glanced at the man and proceeded to smile. "Nah, I was planning on leaving soon anyway." He said, then nodded at Rakutsu who nodded back at him. "Well, I shall take my leave, take care... son" he ended dramatically, then stopping halfway to call his croagunk who was standing behing the man with the curl.
The man gave Rakutsu a questioning glance, who in return, the boy shrugged at him. The man then looked at Rakutsu as if he's noticed something, then quickly searched his bag for something. Pulling out a piece of paper soon after. "Rakutsu right? You're in my class?" He asked handing the boy a namelist with his name and a few others on it. Rakutsu smiled and nodded.
"Perfect! It would seem I'm starting to remember a few of you already after trying my best last night to study your information!" The man said, clapping his hands together in a happy gesture. "Come, we must return to class and I'll introduce myself there!"
Rakutsu nodded and followed the man into his classroom. The man shooed Rakutsu back go his seat, then quickly placed his things on the teacher's desk in front of the class. When Rakutsu took a seat, Hugh raised an eyebrow at the boy " what was up with that?" He asked. To which Rakutsu simply answered "Oh, dad problems" which only made Hugh even more confused.
The man at the front of the classroom dusted his coat carefully and smiled at the class. It would seem that he has already written his name on the blackboard behind him.
"Hello there class, my name is Colress, and from today onwards, I shall be your homeroom and Math teacher. Please to meet you"
Behind him, Rakutsu heard a soft gasp of horror. This man was not to be trusted.
So I heard Colress was the new king of team plasma. Fun.
