After finally finishing what was left of my lunch, Magenta and I had decided to inspect the school. Apparently we still had a bit of time left, and I wasn't eager on wasting them by sitting around in the cafeteria. Will, Layla and Zach had headed off a little earlier than us. And Ethan had too...but alone, I didn't exactly find his decision very smart. But if he wanted to go solo for his lunch, then who was I to question it?.
"So, what do you think sidekick classes are like?" Maj asked boredly as we strolled down the hall. I shrugged and crossed my arms.
"God knows, crap probably. I mean the heroes are the ones they wanna focus on, not us" I replied shaking my head. She nodded in agreement.
There's something that confuses me though. You've got this kick-ass power, why didn't you use it? It would definitely get you into Hero class" she said confusedly. I nodded.
"Yeah it would, but my power's dangerous and I only use it on those who deserve it. Yah know, bullies and what not" I shrugged. She nodded.
"Fair enough, I knew I would get stuck in sidekick class. I mean a guinea pig? All the powers in the world and I get the shit one!" she exclaimed. I laughed and shook my head.
"It's not shit, you can get into any small space. Plus the purple streaks make you look so adorable" I teased in a baby-voice. She narrowed her eyes at me.
"I will bite you" she threatened. I smiled in amusement and shook my head. As we turned the corner a small orange body crashed into us...Ethan "Dude! What the heck?!" Magenta exclaimed. He smiled nervously.
"Sorry Maj, just wanted to go for a run" he replied. She nodded rolling her eyes and I noticed small trails of water running down his face.
"Is there a pool in the school?" I asked curiously. He shook his head.
"No, just got a swirlie. But it's okay, maybe it was a one time thing. Later guys" He waved before running passed us and down the hall.
"So when you say bullies and what not. Can you please use your powers on his bullies?" she asked pointing to the way Ethan had run. I shook my head and we turned the corner.
"No. I hate my power, it's so evil!" I exclaimed shaking my head. She sighed.
"Well you do have a super-villain dad" she pointed out. Magenta was the only one who knew who my parents were...and my brother. I'd told her when we were younger not realising how much of an effect it could make, and how people's judgement of me would change. But thankfully hers had stayed the same, she didn't people because of their parents...and that's why she was one of my closest friends.
"Yeah I know, but I did not get my evil powers from him. He could cause Earthquakes, my power has absolutely nothing to do with the world shaking" I exclaimed as we walked down the hall.
"True, but still" she shrugged innocently. I nodded and my eyes widened slightly. Down the hall Lash and Speed were shoving a short sidekick into someone's locker...laughing while they did it might I add. I sighed as they successfully locked the kid inside before high-fiving each other.
"God, I wish they'd just get what they deserve" I said in thought. Maj nodded.
"Me too. You could do just that yah know" she pointed out. I rolled my eyes and we started walking again.
"I know, but I can't" I replied frustratedly. She rolled her eyes and I soon spotted my locker "Let's check out my locker" I muttered walking towards it. I opened it up and found the thing was completely empty and plain...something I hated greatly.
"Amazing locker" Maj said sarcastically. I narrowed my eyes at her.
"I'm making some changes, it is not staying like this no frickin' way!" I exclaimed shaking my head. In a gust of wind I found my locker had been slammed shut...and my top-hat was gone. I screamed frustratedly and spun around looking for the culprit, though I knew exactly who it was...Speed. I looked down the hall and spotted him stood with Lash, these guys must've been joined at the hip or something...and it was pretty annoying.
"Hey there Sidekick! You want your hat back?!" Lash asked taking the hat from his friend and placing it on his own head. I glared and crossed my arms.
"Just use your power Mel, it couldn't hurt" Maj muttered shaking her head. I sighed.
"That would just be giving in and dropping to their level. I am not using my power" I replied firmly. She rolled her eyes and held her hands up in an innocent manner.
"No beef" she said. I sighed and turned back to the boys, who were still watching me.
"I'll be right back, hopefully this will work" I said. She nodded and walked towards the boys, hoping to god I would get my hat back.
"I'm guessing you want this" Lash smirked while flicking the rim of the hat. I glared.
"Wow, observant. Did you figure that out by yourself?" I retorted tilting my head. He shrugged.
"Pretty much. So what's your power, hmm?" he asked handing Speed the hat and circling me. I didn't reply, I just stood staring straight ahead with my arms crossed.
"You don't wanna know" I replied finally turning my head to face him. To my surprise he had leaned down, so now his face was an inch away from mine.
"Try me" he smirked. I rolled my eyes and turned my head, staring ahead again.
"No. Now give me the hat back" I said irritatedly. He chuckled and stood in front of me, so that I was now staring at his chest...the dude was really tall.
"Tell you what sidekick" he started while holding his hand out to Speed, the boy shrugged and handed Lash my hat.
"How do you even know I'm a sidekick?" I asked curiously. He shrugged and placed the hat on his head.
"We always ditch class and stop by the gym to see who we can give swirlies to and who we cant" he replied crossing his arms. I rolled my eyes "And we know that you wouldn't show your power. But back to business" he said leaning down to my height.
"I'm not showing you my power" I smirked shaking my head. I may have loved that hat, but I would not give them the satisfaction of knowing what my power was.
"Now I didn't say that did I?" he asked innocently. I rolled my eyes...again.
"I don't believe you did" Speed added crossing his arms.
"Nope. I'll give you back your hat, if you kiss me" he smirked. The smirk fell from my face and I inwardly groaned...that was not what I was expecting.
"Fuck me" I sighed shaking my head, I bit down on my bottom lip in thought. Did I want the hat back? Definitely. Was kissing him worth it? Maybe. But this guy was hot, although I'd never admit that to his face.
"Dude" Speed laughed shaking his head. This was obviously very amusing for him, and Magenta would probably kill me for what I was about to do.
"Fine" I replied. Speed froze with wide eyes and so did Lash.
"What?" he asked surprised. I shrugged again.
"I said fine" I repeated tilting my head. The smirk suddenly returned to his face.
"Alright then" he exclaimed leaning down. I put a hand on his chest pushing him back slightly.
"Woah there, I want my hat first" I said pointing to my top hat that still rested on his head. He sighed and reluctantly handed me the hat, I smiled and put it on my own head...now I didn't feel so empty.
"Don't even try to run, if you do Speed here will just round you up every time you do" he warned. I rolled my eyes and gripped the front of his shirt in my small fist.
"Fine" I smirked tilting my head again. His eyes widened as I yanked his face down to my height, crushing my lips against his own as I did. He instantly responded, his arms wrapping around my waist and tongue sliding into my mouth. After a few seconds I pulled back with a smug look "Later" I waved before heading back down to Magenta.
"What the heck was that?!" she exclaimed gesturing to the boys. I shrugged.
"I got my hat back, the easy way. Now c'mon we have to get back to the gym" I said as the bell rang. She nodded with wide eyes and we headed back down the hall...me feeling very smug.
