WEEAHOOO! Finally finished this! Yeah... sorry for the late update. Not that I have an actual schedule but... yeah. Wouldn't want to make you guys wait forever. So yeah, I'm not sure if this is any good or not but I liked it. But hey, read on and I'll see you at the end.

I walked alone to the cafeteria, slinging my bag over one shoulder. I contemplated sitting with Gren and Cress, but I felt like staying away from them for the time being. I didn't need their constant teasing. So I took to sitting at an isolated table in the corner. I had picked up a meal- pepperoni pizza. I slowly and silently ate the slice for the next half hour.

As soon as I finished it I stood up, bag still slung over one shoulder. I walked through the cafeteria towards the exit. Until I heard an unfamiliar voice, and then a familiar voice.

"C'mon, why dontcha want to?" The unfamiliar voice, I presumed male, jeered.

"Because I don't want to!" The familiar voice squeaked. I could pick up some annoyance in, what I think to be, her voice.

I turned to see a guy with two hands planted on a table, leaning in toward- Latias. I frowned and stayed just within ear shot, studying the guy. He seemed just my height and age. He wore a blood-red shirt, two black lines stretched from the shoulder, meeting in the middle and going down; forming a Y, which were coupled with black pants. His hair was black with red highlights and I could see a pendant dangling from his neck. His eyes were red, resembling that of a flickering fire, which matched his seemingly cocky grin. I continued listening in to the conversation. It sounded like the guy was 'asking' her out.

I decided to look at the friends Latias was sitting with. A guy and a girl. The guy, which I guessed to be half a head shorter than me, had long snow white hair that went to his neck and a long clump of it covered one of his eyes, revealing only a soft blue one. His skin was pale, and it seemed his whole body was fragile. He wore a blue vest over a white undershirt, I couldn't tell his pants from where I was. He was looking up at the guy that was bothering Latias, and I could tell that he wanted to do something, yet something was preventing him from doing so.

Latias's other companion, the girl, was a hand taller than the one with the white hair. She had long blonde hair with blue highlights. Her face held two purple eyes, and a scowl that seemed unfitting for her. From what I could see she was wearing a black undershirt and over it was a dark blue coat and what I think to be black pants over her legs. She was openly arguing alongside Latias, though in the manner she did made it seem like she knew the one bothering them.

The one with the white hair spoke quietly while sweat-dropping, "G-guys, I th-think we should j-just go."

The blonde one spoke, "No, we are not abandoning our spot to Yveltal out of all people Vanill."

The guy, now identified as Yveltal, chuckled. "Oh come on sis, all I'm doing is asking Latias out." his voice held cockiness as his flickering eyes moved back to Latias, "So how 'bout it?"

Latias seemed practically fuming at this point. She shook her head and shot a glare at Yveltal. "N-no!"

I frowned and strode over. I placed a hand on Yveltal's shoulder just before he placed a hand on Latias. He turned around, and I spoke. "I think it's clear they want you gone."

Yveltal turned around, frowning. His frown then turned into a smile of amusement. "Hey, aren't you the new kid? Dirkrei or something like that?"

I sighed and said through gritted teeth. "It's Darkrai."

Yveltal chuckled slightly, "Well Darkrai, I'm Yveltal. Yveltal Lazaro. Can't say it's a pleasure to meet you… yet." He patted my shoulder and started to walk off before stopping next to me. "Don't worry, I'm sure we'll get along fine in the future. I'll be going now, ta ta~." With that Yveltal walked off, exiting the cafeteria. For a moment, it seemed everyone in the room had their eyes on me. When I checked, turned out they had for a moment. Though they started to go back to their own business and the cafeteria filled up with noise again.

I mumble, just low enough for the people in front of him to hear. "He seems displeasurable already…"

I heard the blond girl giggle slightly. "You got that right! And trust me, he's a lot more annoying at home." She then broke into a laughing fit, though no one else really joined along. I heard the white haired guy, Vanil I think it was, attempt to calm her down.

Latias sighed and looked up at me with her sky blue eyes with a small smile. "Thanks Darkrai." She said, the gratitude true in her voice.

I nodded and said quickly. Maybe a bit too quick. "Yeah. Sure. Anytime." I felt color rising up to my cheeks, and in response I pulled my scarf up.

The redhead let out a small laugh, "I don't believe you met my friends yet." I shook my head. "Well, let me introduce them. The blondie in a laughing fit is-" She was cut off by the girl, who had stopped laughing.

"I'm Xerneas Fairae! Sister to the idiot known as Yveltal." She again giggled, though luckily she didn't do anymore than that.

The white haired guy spoke next. His voice was nervous, and he stuttered often. "W-well since e-everyone is i-introducing themse-selves…" He trailed off, then looked at me with his one eye that wasn't covered. "M-my name is V-vanillish C-Cyrn. E-everyone c-calls my V-Vanill." He then did something I didn't expect he would do. He bowed.

I raised my eyebrows. "Aren't you polite?" I asked with a curious tone.

Vanill stuttered out again, "S-sorry, I do that when around s-someone new…" He then muttered something that I couldn't pick up. Something to do with nervousness. I decided to dismiss it and turn my attention to Latias, who strangely had an apologetic look on her face.

"Sorry about any trouble we may have caused you, I don't mean to pull you into anything. Again, sorry." She bowed her head slightly.

I felt my whole body flush, but kept my composure. I shook my head and said, "No, it's fine."

Xerneas suddenly stood up with Vanillish locked in her arm. "Well! We'll be going now! We'll see you in the next class!" And before Vanillish could say anything, she darted off, with Vanillish in tow, out of the cafeteria.

I raised my eyebrows, my face a mixture of curiosity and confusion. "What are they? Dating or something?"

Latias giggled, covering her mouth with her hand. "Sometimes I ask that myself." She then looked down at the ground with a small smile on her face. I could detect a little sadness as well. "Sometimes it makes me a little jealous…" Before I could register what she said, she looked up and smiled as if everything was fine. Though I could tell it wasn't- I have been wearing masks for too long now. She stood up, still holding the smile. "Well, it's almost gym class. You wanna go together?" She asked, feigning happiness.

I nodded and replied. "Sure." So we walked side by side to the gym, which was in the back of the campus. The walk was awkwardly silent, though I enjoyed the company. I decided not to ask about earlier. I didn't want to bring up any personal. There are other times for that.

The gym was pretty basic. Large building, a multipurpose court with basketball posts on each side and bleachers. Just what you would expect from any school gym. We both saw 3 groups of students, probably our homerooms, in the middle of the gym with what I would think to be a teacher in front of them. It was a man, and quite stout. Probably a hand shorter than me, but he was all muscle. He wore a blue shirt and dark blue shorts. He held a megaphone in his right hand and his left hand was holding his hip, he was tapping his foot on the ground as if waiting for something.

Latias and I sat down in our homeroom group and the teacher yelled into the megaphone, filling the gym with his voice. "ALRIGHT KIDS! I AM YOUR GYM TEACHER, LOUDRED SOUNDLOCKE! YOU MAY CALL ME MR. SOUNDLOCKE! OR MR. LOCKE! OR IF YOU WANT TO BE ON MY GOOD SIDE! SERGEANT!" I saw everyone try some form of lowering the volume, whether it was covering their ears or burying into someone's shoulders. I myself slightly shivered at the sudden raise in sound, but did nothing more. "AS YOU CAN SEE, YOU ARE IN YOUR HOMEROOM CLASSES!" No shit Sherlock. "I DO NOT HAVE THE TIME TO TEACH ALL OF YOU! SO ALL OF YOU WILL HAVE DIFFERENT TEACHERS! I AM ONE OF THEM! YOU WILL EACH MEET YOUR OWN AT YOUR DESIGNATED LOCATIONS! YOU WILL SWITCH TEACHERS EACH TERM, AND EACH TEACHER WLL TEACH A DIFFERENT SPORT!"

I sighed and whispered to Latias."Is he always this loud?"

She sighed and whispered back, "Sadly…" We shared a small laugh, then the gym teacher started calling out classes.

"CLASS A!" I don't believe that was mine- I think mine was C. "YOU WILL BE WITH MS. WILDA!"

And as if on cue, a woman ran in from outside and skidded to a stop next to Loudred. When she stood up straight, she was about a head and a half taller, and looked in her earl 20's. She had long red hair with orange highlights that was messily tied into a ponytail, though some of her hair still covered her face. She wore a white training shirt and red running shorts. She smiled and waved before announcing, "Hey kids! Rapidash Wilda here! Not only am I a gym teacher, I'm also the head of the track team! So talk to me after school if you're interested! When you're with me, we'll be training your agility!"

Loudred nodded before going on. "ALRIGHT! CLASS B WILL BE WITH YOURS TRULY!"

I sighed and whispered. "Isn't that unfortunate?" And to my likeness, she let out a small laugh. I smiled then turned back to the 'sergeant'.

"AS LONG AS YOU ARE WITH ME, YOU WILL BE TRAINED IN STRENGTH AND SPORTS!" Mr. Soundlocke let out a small cough to clear his throat before barking out his (hopefully) last announcement. "CLASS C WILL BE TAUGHT BY MR. VOLT!"

And just like Ms. Wilda, a man walked in from outside. His black hair was spiky and stroked to the back, making him look like a lion of sorts. He stood to the right of Mr. Soundlocke and crossed his arms in front of his chest, grinning. He was just half a head taller than Ms. Wilda, and looked about the same age as her. He wore a black jacket over a blue shirt and wore black track pants, coupled with black running shoes. His eyes sparked a brilliant yellow, and his grin showed he was one to have fun. He then announced, "Name's Luxray Volt, I will be teaching you all sports when I'm with you. I'm also head of the soccer team, so sign up with me after school if interested."

"ALRIGHT! NOW THAT WE HAVE OURSELVES INTRODU-" he was then interrupted by his male colleague bopping his head. Loudred rubbed his head before barking out at Luxray, without the megaphone of course, "What did you do that for?!"

Luxray shook his head. "You really have to stop yelling into that thing, you're already loud enough."

Loudred grumbled something before yelling again, but without the megaphone this time. "As I was saying." He shot a short glare at Luxray before going on. They were probably good friends now that I think of it. "Since we have introduced ourselves, I propose a small 3-way dodgeball game!" I sighed, though it seems most people were in favor of this. He went on. "Your teams will be your homeroom classes! Your assigned teachers for the first term will be on your team! As you can see, the area is already divided into four sections! Meet with your teachers with in the spots in which we will go to!" With that all the gym teachers nodded and spread out in 3 different directions. Now that I saw it the floor was separated into 3 triangle shapes, the borders marked by white tape.

I turned my head to face Latias. "Well, let's go then?"

She only nodded, I could tell she still had some stuff on her mind but I decided to dismiss it. We both walked towards our section, where it seemed everyone was standing in a circle around Mr. Volt. He spoke with a smirk, showing his friendliness. Maybe this is a teacher I'll actually like. "Good to have you class! Now for this dodgeball game, there aren't many rules. You are allowed to use any special abilities you have- just not to harmful." I smirked at this, and so did a lot of other people. This was going to be fun. "And if you brought special clothing for gym, you may change into them now."

I whispered to Latias. "Did you bring any?" She promptly shook her head. And judging by the scene that no one was leaving, neither did anyone else. I was slightly relieved that I wasn't the only one.

Mr. Volt sighed, "Well, can't be helped can it?" He chuckled, "Well! Let's get this game started!" And to my surprise, everyone cheered. It seemed this was going to be fun.

Yussss, it's done. Finally. Done. This 3rd chapter caused my quite a bit of trouble but hey! It's here now! So follow/favorite if you liked it and please review for criticism and questions and such! Klockwerk, signing out.
