Chapter 8: The Second Half of the First day of School
Roxas stepped into the classroom and got his first good look at Mr. Schtauffen, what he saw made his jaw drop. The ancient history teacher was dressed head to toe in silver armor, he had blonde hair, and according to many girls in the class he was 'hot as hell'.
Roxas took his seat at a desk close to the front as Mr. Schtauffen began his lesson.
"Welcome to my classroom students, now you're probably wondering why I'm wearing this." He indicated his silver armor, "It's because for your first lesson we are all going to learn about ancient weapons."
At this a murmur of excitement went through the class, Roxas heard Riku behind him whisper, "Finally a course I can pass easily."
When everyone had quieted down Mr. Schtauffen opened a bag full of medieval weapons and instructed each student to pick one. Roxas looked through each one and couldn't find any that felt the same as a keyblade. He looked around and noticed everyone was distracted from him; they were all clumsily swinging their weapons. Roxas quietly turned away from everyone else and summoned a keyblade to his hand, he looked down and was startled to see Oathkeeper in his hand, he usually he got Oblivion or the Kingdom Key.
"Hey Riku!" Roxas called softly across the room to his friend. Riku turned around, a short gladius in his hands, when Riku saw the weapon Roxas was holding his eyes widened and he hurriedly ran across the room, dodging haphazard swings as he went.
"What do you think you're doing Roxas?" Riku demanded roughly.
"I 'found' this in the bag." Roxas grinned, "It's not like anyone will recognize it. I'll be fine." Roxas flashed one of Sora's famous puppy-dog looks at Riku.
Riku looked at him worriedly before giving in. "Alright, but don't summon it anywhere but this class. The silver-haired boy turned away to continue practicing, when Mr. Schtauffen's voice cut across the din of the students.
"Now I've filed down all the edges of these weapons so that no one will hurt themselves, so everyone find a partner and we'll begin some sparring."
Roxas went off to find Riku, but found out he already had a partner. Roxas turned his blue-eyed gaze all around the room, only to find that he was the odd person, without a partner.
"Need an extra?" A voice came from directly behind Roxas. He turned around to reveal Mr. Schtauffen. "Come on to the front of the class and I'll spar with you." Following him to the front of the class Roxas took a fighting stance as he watched Mr. Schtauffen take a huge sword that was propped on the wall and assumed a stance as well. Some of the students stopped their own battles to watch the teacher wield his zweihander against Roxas. Roxas heard a couple of people exclaim "Five bucks on Mr. Schtauffen."
"Nice weapon." He heard the teacher say quietly so only his opponent could hear him, "Oathkeeper? Am I right?"
Shocked momentarily Roxas widened his eyes "How did you know Mr. Schtauffen?" He whispered back.
"We'll talk later, and call me Siegfried"
Siegfried charged towards Roxas and swung his blade in a huge vertical strike, which Roxas dodge rolled out of the way of. Roxas counterattacked with a swipe at the man's feet, which Siegfried blocked. The fight went on for a while like this, attack, block attack, block, until Roxas leapt back and used strike raid on an unexpecting Siegfried. The attack caught him in the leg and caused blood to be shed.
Siegfried knelt on one knee as Roxas ran up to him worriedly, just as he reached him; Siegfried smacked him on the head with his sword hilt, knocking Roxas to the ground.
"Lesson one, never drop your guard." Siegfried exclaimed standing up, not even favoring his uninjured leg. "Class dismissed."
The class left the room reluctantly, all except Riku and Sora's nobody.
"How do you know?" Roxas blurted out after the last student left the room.
"Leon." Came the one word answer before more followed it. "I got sucked into some different world where Leon told me all about Sora and his accomplishments. I left in some ship and decided to earn some munny here, teaching."
"So let me get this straight." Riku said, "You know about everything." Siegfried nodded. "You know about everyone's memory loss." Another nod. "And you have no idea what caused it too." A third nod.
"Well, well, well. If it isn't Roxas!" a voice came from the doorway. A voice Roxas knew all too well. It was a fellow nobody, it was…
Namine.
Roxas turned around slowly. When he finished his spin his eyes widened. She really was there.
"Did you like that little taste of memories I gave you today?" Namine asked, a smile on her face.
"Namine, why are you here?" Roxas questioned back.
"I've been looking for you for a while and finally found you. Now we can be together!" She said, running up to him and stopped seeing the expression on his face.
"Namine, we aren't together!" Roxas practically shouted at her, "We went on one date and never even kissed!"
"Well, first time for everything." Namine whispered finishing the gap between them and pressing her pink lips to his.
Roxas froze as Namine kissed him, he grabbed her shoulders and tried to separate them, but found he couldn't. "What am I doing? I don't have feelings for her!" He thought to himself, as time seemed to slow down.
After what seemed like an eternity to Roxas Namine pulled away, stars in her eyes. Gazing at him adoringly. She was about to speak when she was interrupted be a strangled noise from the doorway. Roxas turned towards the hall and felt like he was abut to die. Standing there were Sora, Wakka, Selphie and of course… Yuffie.
Yuffie turned and ran away as soon as she tried to talk. Selphie whispered loudly, "Son of a bitch" and hurried after Yuffie. Sora appeared about as frozen as Roxas felt, and Wakka (Not knowing about what happened in Mexico, or anything about Roxas and Yuffie.) grinned and gave him thumbs up.
When Roxas regained his sense of motion he pushed Namine away from him and looked at Riku wide-eyed. Riku worked his mouth soundlessly for a bit before whispering hoarsely "I don't know which one of you to hit."
Namine looked down at Roxas' keyblade he was still holding, and looked worried, "There aren't heartless around are there Roxas?" She asked fearfully
"Heartless? What are heartless?" Wakka asked confusedly
"Nothing, nothing." Sora responded, finally regaining his locomotive skills. "Uh Namine, we need to talk to you privately okay?"
"That's fine with me." Namine said, "Anytime I can be with Roxas I'm happy." She looked up at him again and smiled sweetly.
"That's cool with me." Wakka said, still grinning "I'm gonna go, um study, ya study, um bye!" After that he hurried off.
Sora entered the room and closed the door; turning towards the other four people in the room he explained everything to Namine. Hoping she might know why everyone had forgotten them.
She smiled devilishly, "I may know why, I may not. Maybe I can be 'persuaded' to tell you everything I do know about this matter." She said looking slyly at Roxas.
"I've got you're 'persuasion' right here!" Riku responded angrily, summoning Oblivion to his hand and holding it to Namine's throat.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. Anger problems Riku." Namine responded coolly. Ignoring the weapon at her throat, "We both know that you won't hurt me while I hold information."
"I think I'm going to leave now." Siegfried exclaimed, hurrying out the door, "You were my last class anyway."
Riku lowered his keyblade and growled at her. Meanwhile Sora pulled Roxas off to the side and whispered to him "Now I know that she is a huge bitch Roxas, but if we are ever going to get everyone's memory back, you have to convince her to tell us how to do it. Don't worry it'll all be over soon."
Roxas sighed in resignation and lowered his head, "Alright." Turning swiftly to an unsuspecting Namine he closed his eyes and whispered to her.
"How's this for persuasion?"
Then he kissed her fiercely, he despised doing this because he knew it was going to make her think she was really his girlfriend, but she knew how to get everyone's memory back and this was the only way.
Roxas kept the kiss going for as long as he could go without air, and just before he parted from Namine he heard the door burst open and a voice go "Oh my god!"
Opening his eyes Roxas turned around, and broke his kiss with the girl in front of him in one motion. He saw yet more people standing in the door, and like before he knew them all. Kairi and Tidus, who were closely followed by a no longer grinning Wakka.
Kairi had a hand over her mouth in shock, Tidus was staring at Namine with wide eyes, and Wakka groaned and walked away. Muttering something about Roxas being a 'chick magnet'
"Ummm. Is that a blonde Kairi?" Tidus asked jokingly. No one responded.
"Must there always be an audience?" Namine asked to no one. "Hello I'm Namine, Riku's cousin. Nice to meet you." She was a good liar.
"I-I'm Tidus, this is Kairi. Uh, why were you making out with Roxas in a classroom with Sora and Riku with you?"
"Well he is my boyfriend." Namine said, "I mean before he moved here. I just moved myself."
Before anyone could say anything else the bell rang for the next class and Kairi and Tidus Disappeared into the hall. Sora headed out after them, while Riku stayed behind with the 'couple'.
"So what's the reason Namine?" Riku asked bluntly, as soon as he had closed the door.
"The reason for what?" Namine asked innocently.
Riku growled again, summoning Oblivion for a second time. "The reason why everyone happened to have memory-loss at the same time!" He barked at her.
"That wasn't part of the deal." She said grinning at the angry look on Riku's face. "I said I'd tell you everything I knew, the truth is I don't know anything about it." Namine giggled and ran out of the room.
"Damn it!" Riku cursed, punching the wall in frustration. "So close! That bitch used us so she could get to you!"
"What am I supposed to do about Yuffie know?" Roxas said "Wakka knows I kissed her twice, he'll tell Yuffie!"
"Right now Roxas." Riku said, calming down and putting his hand on the other boy's shoulder, "There's nothing you can do. Now let's get to class."
The two walked out the door and left for their next class. "Now I know why Sora hates school so much." Roxas thought to himself.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Namine is mean.
Mean mean mean!
But she's gonna get a lot meaner!
Mwahahahahaha!
