A/N: If I keep these chapters short and structed, I could dedicate a little time to work on Within the Geist, Maelstrom of Stardew, or Send in the Miis. Either way, on with the chapter.
Not Another High School Fanfiction!
Kenji Arc 4
Chapter 2: New Teens and Adults on the Blocks
Last time on Not Another High School Fanfiction, Old Kai was being an old douche and had the Outsiders go back to school…
Kenji grumbled as he got ready for school alongside his fiancée. This deal with Old Kai was annoying him, but Jerome added fire to the fuel by asking why hasn't he married Megan yet. Seeing they'd be around for three weeks, Kenji rented out several lavish condos on the outskirts of town. One of him and Meg, one for Jerome and Dana, one for Jillian, and one for Lana. Kenji was debating the fact of even letting Jillian go to school considering she was in her 20s, but dismissed it. He needed to influence her to prevent her eating disorder from coming back.
He and Megan were deciding on what to wear.
"I can't believe this. I already have a damn GED!" Kenji fumed.
"Well, it's only three weeks anyway. So, what's the cover story?" Megan asked.
"Transfer students." Kenji said bluntly. "I'm not giving up my sense of style to blend in. Screw that."
"I hear you. No way, am I wearing my old clothes." Megan said.
Kenji settled on wearing his favorite purple and black camo pants with a black belt with a sliver circular buckle, and a pair of dark purple sneakers with black linings with grey socks. He decided to wear a sleeveless v-neck black shirt. Meg got a pair of black shorts, a pale pink midriff shirt, chains on the right side of her shorts, a black hoodie tied around her waist, and white sneakers with black socks. Kenji got his BlackTab clipped to his right side and Meg had her device clipped to her left. Both had on a pair of black fingerless gloves. They got up their matching backpacks with the graphic of Goku and Vegeta in their Super Saiyan forms fighting Frieza and Cooler.
"I'm not surprised Molly and Evey D said no to going back to school. But why you, Dana?" Jerome said.
He knew Molly wouldn't want to be back in another "hell" and Evey D stated she was done with anything related to high school.
"With my new powers, I can own the school. Any little shit wants to talk smack to me can meet my fist." Dana said confidently.
Jerome had to admit that was pretty hot, her being all confident.
Jerome wore black hi-top sneakers (witch matching socks), black knee-length shorts with an eyelet-studded crimson belt. He also wore a short second belt with the insignia for the Kyubi on the silver buckle over his right hip, but left it unfastened and threaded the free end along the back of his shorts. He also sported black-sleeved and hooded crimson hoodie with the symbol for the Outsiders (the jolly roger version: a skull with Kenji's hairdo and googles on its face sport the Blackthorn kanji in the reflection of the lenses) on the front of his chest and the sleeves rolled up. His fox ears and tails were on full display as he was determined to no longer hide unless completely need.
Dana wore a punk styled black/purple plaid skirt up to her knees, a short belt with a silver skull buckle over her left hip, purple sneakers with white kneesocks, and a similar hoodie to her husband's except hers was patterned grey and black.
They both had a backpack with a graphic of the Nine Tailed Fox.
Jillian was last to get ready having a hard time picking an outfit. She settled for a low cut ocean blue top, low-set tan jeans that showed her crotch lines, grey wristbands, and matching sandals. She had a one strap blue backpack.
When the group all gathered on the roof of the condo, they rolled their eyes at Jillian's choice of wear.
"At least she shaves or we'd be seeing blonde pubes." Meg remarked.
Kenji spawned a plain ocean blue sash and lazily tied it around Jillian's waist as a cheap fix. Kenji got a text from Lana.
"She's going by car to the school now. We're flying." Kenji remarked.
"Shouldn't we be hiding our powers?" Jillian asked.
If this was any other team, Jillian would have asked a competent question. However, Kenji and Jerome were done hiding. Jerome was rather peeved at the question and answered by flying off with a blazing red trail. Dana took off flying after him with a purple/blackish trail, and followed by Meg who had a blue trail. Kenji took off having a clear trail. The teens (and adult) flew over the city intent on getting to school not that they cared they would be late. Meanwhile, Gohan had arrived for school. It had been his, ironically, third week in school and he was adjusting. Videl still hounded him like a dog in heat, Erasa was still bubbly, and Sharpener was still an asshole. In his baggy school clothes, Gohan was outside the school building arriving to see his "friends". Videl was glaring at him, Erasa was cheerfully glad to see him, and Sharpener was smirking like the smug man he was.
"Hey Brians, nice to see you early for once." Sharpener said earnestly for once.
"Well, I got a good night's sleep for once." Gohan said.
Gohan had to dump Goten at Roshi's for that. Then his good day went to the dogs, a student pointed to the sky saying he saw people floating in the air. Gohan sensed the ki signatures to see Kenji and his group floating in the sky without a care in the world. Gohan's eyes bulged out his skull along with Sharpener. Videl was wide-eyed as they floated down landing on the ground. Kenji, Meg, Dana, Jerome, and Jillian started on walk toward the school building as if it was normal for him. Jerome got stares headed his way. Videl, being the detective, wanted answers and got in their way.
"You all were flying just like that Golden Fighter and Saiyadork." Videl said crossing her arms.
"Sayia-who now?" Jillian asked dimly.
"And if you excuse, we have better things to do than waste time with you." Kenji said as they walked past them.
"Get back here!" Videl said crushing her foot down on two of Jerome's tails.
Now Videl had no idea those were real tails having no experience with anthromorphs (being that they lived in other cities). Thus, Videl was mortified to see Jerome scream out in agony as if she kicked in the manhood. Many other students winced especially Gohan who used to have a tail. Jerome was rubbing his tails and Dana looked furious. Videl took a nervous step back.
"Wait…I" Videl sputtered.
"You frigid bitch!" Dana shouted as Gohan could feel the rise in her ki.
"Videl's in trouble!" Gohan thought as he decided to get involved.
However, Kenji got Gohan's way.
"Don't even think about it." Kenji said showing a flash of turquoise in his irises.
Gohan's blood ran cold in shock at this and Kenji spoke to Gohan telepathically.
"Dana there, is not a Saiyan. Not like us." Kenji spoke to Gohan's mind. "But she is pretty strong."
Dana cracked her knuckles and Videl got in a fighting stance. Videl thought she had the advantage being three inches taller than Dana, but didn't know that like her Dana had fought bigger people.
"Look, you can't bea-" was all the worlds got out before Dana slugged her hard to knock Videl into the ground.
All the student's jaws on the ground and Meg was cheering "FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!" Videl staggered up returning a punch only to get an open palm strike to her nose spraining it. Videl gripped her hurting nose only for Dana to laugh.
"What was that, bitch? Couldn't hear you." Dana said before they traded blows.
Each punch made it mark and the class thought Videl had the upper hand against Dana. Gohan knew better.
"She's toying with Videl, isn't she?" Gohan said blankly to Erasa and Sharpener's shock.
"Damn right." Kenji said bluntly. "She's waiting for Videl to tire out so she's parrying and taking Videl's blows. Videl's fighting style is all about power and strength. Problem is that Satan Style is utter shit because you cut stamina in favor of strength."
That astute judgement had Sharpener do a double take.
"What good is strength if you can't use it for too long?" Jerome remarked rubbing his sore tails.
Sharpener had to admit Jerome asked a good question. Sharpener was for once rethinking several things. Dana had reduced her punches thrown letting Videl have more thrown. Dana could sense Videl was running low on steam and thus caught her next punch.
"You're pretty weak, you know? Your technique's only going to work on the unarmed thug." Dana said tightening her grip on Videl's fist.
"You mean like you!" Videl said using her other arm to nail Dana in the face.
Only this time, Dana didn't flinch at all to it. Videl was confused before it slowly dawned on her that Dana was holding back.
"No…I'm much worse." Dana said with a slasher smile.
Tightening her death grip on Videl's arm, Dana crouched before nailing a powerful punch to the Videl's solar plexus, which lifts her off their feet. Videl didn't get a chance to finish cough up what she had her breakfast before Dana's uppercut connected with her jaw blasting her into the air. Videl hit the ground completely unconscious. Gohan bolted to help Videl and Dana dusted herself off. She walked away joined by Kenji, Meg, Jillian, and Jerome.
"Was Videl just beaten?" Erasa said dumbly.
Students crowded Videl as Gohan got her up in his arms to carry her to the nurse's office. Videl was at that moment dethroned as the school's strongest. The lucky guy to record all this quickly posted it to every social media account he had. This was going to spread.
Videl Satan was pissed beyond reason. She sourly sat in her seat next to Gohan, Erasa, and Sharpner. She had some bandages on her stomach and around her face along with bruises. Gohan was glad she wasn't directing her anger on him. Ms. Hamilton, their English teacher, walked in with a big smile.
"Good morning, class. Today, we'll have introducing five new transfer students for about three weeks here at our humble high school." Ms. Hamilton said. "Please, make them feel welcome."
The five of the hour walked in and Videl looked like a deer in highlights. Gohan wasn't any better. Ms. Hamiltion asked them to introduce themselves. Their names, their likes, their dislikes, and their dreams for the future. Kenji went first.
"My name is Kenji Victoria Blackthorn. I like martial arts, fighting, my fiancée Megan-chan, video games, travel, and my freedom. I dislike frauds, pricks, anyone from the Uchiha/Haruno clans, racists, sexists, politicians, and lastly Hercule. My dream for the future is be renowned for forming the most badass crew."
Kenji got many snickers from his middle name and glares from his blatant glares over his dislike of Hercule. Meg was next.
"Name's Megan Griffin. I like pretty much the same things as my fiancé, Kenji. I dislike my former family. My dream for the future to help Kenji command that crew of his."
Meg was able to be vague enough to keep herself unknown. Dana went next.
"The name's Dana Angel-Jase, and don't you forget it. I prefer things of a punk-rock nature and my husband, Jerome. I dislike authority, "the man", drugs, and lastly frauds." Dana said confidently.
Last was Jerome.
"Jerome S. Jase. Yes, my ears and tails are real. I don't feel like telling anyone here my likes or dislikes." Jerome said as Miss Hamilton was feeling up his ears. "Miss, kindly remove your hands off my ears."
Somehow, Jillian was skipped. Miss Hamilton pulled away and give them seats next to Gohan and friends. Videl was wondering if she pissed off Miss Hamilton, and Gohan was wondering if Dende had his hand in this. They sat and the lesson went on. Kenji wasn't really paying attention as he already had read The Color Purple. Jillian was chatting about with Erasa while Dana and Jerome were eyeing each other.
"Mr. Blackthorn, I notice you aren't paying attention. Care to explain this book then?" Ms. Hamilton asked.
Kenji sighed.
"This book blows and I can tell you why. The theme of love especially. We're supposed to praise Celine for screwing with Shug, but I can't. Why? Celine's been a rape victim most of her teenage life…and really has skewed sexuality issues. How do we know this is "healthy" for her? Add to the fact that this book is depressing as hell for the most part. This book tries to play to the faith and Celine is portrayed to have a sense in God. This makes Celine's whole character a fallacy because she bones Shug which is against the religion she follows in the first place. The author essentially has a hypocrite writing letters to God asking for change." Kenji said in a calm and annoyed tone. "I've read the book, and I disliked it then and I'm only annoyed with it now."
Half the students were stunned and Miss Hamilton was a bit muted for a few moments. Class went on only with Kenji being allowed to sleep in English. Gohan had to give it to Kenji. He uttered tore up and spat out the book in a way Gohan couldn't. By the time that class ended, Kenji and his team were gone. Of course, they all had one class separate from each other.
-With Megan-
Megan was in the midst of Psychology class, and the teacher alone was having the field day trying to unravel the girl's issues. However, Megan whispered the Warper's secret to the teacher. Said teacher didn't take it well…
-With Jerome-
Jerome had to be examined by the Human Biology teacher for his multiple tails. Jerome found it humiliating, but the teacher did say she'd give him an A if she let her.
"I swear that bitch has been eyeing my ass for the past 10 minutes." Jerome thought.
-With Dana-
Dana was up on the roof napping not bothering to go to class.
-With Kenji-
Kenji was in art class sadly with Videl, Erasa, Gohan, and Sharpener. So, he had to make the most of it. How? He drew up Videl and Erasa in bikinis to the class's shock. The teacher gave him an A only because it was the best drawing done in class so far. Videl was livid, Erasa was impressed, Sharpener was laughing, and Gohan was agape. Didn't help that Kenji offered to take requests.
"I will also take NSFW requests." Kenji said merely to get under Videl's skin.
-With Jillian-
Jillian ended up in the boy's locker room in the midst of helping the football team "blow off steam" in hopes of upping her stamina. Those poor boys would be too drained to play…
When lunch came, Kenji took one look at the "food" the cafeteria served and shook his head.
"To hell with this." Kenji said getting up his BlackTab.
He called up the nearest pizza place to place an order as Videl, Gohan, Erasa, and Sharpener joined with Kenji and his team.
"I see you've tasted the OS food. It grows on you." Sharpener says.
"No. We're ordering out." Megan said as Kenji hung up.
Before Videl could ask, pizza was deliverable. There were much rejoicing as Videl could only dumbly stare at Kenji and Gohan wolfing down pizza by the dozen. By the end of the school day, Videl had so many questions. But one was on top? How did they know Gohan? Gohan went from being wary of them to being real friendly with them, especially Kenji. Gohan went home a bit pleased. He had….a friend who got him. However, he could only hope Dende don't ruin it. Too bad, Dende decided not to feed Gohan's hope.
(A/N: Sorry for the abrupt cut off, I finished writing this on limited charge and during Hurricane Maria. Irma already made getting this charged a trek. By the time, this is posted. Things would be back to normal somewhat. Yeah, St. Thomas was really battered…. L Yeah, no power at home yet, so this is on hiatus.)
