(Author's Note: Hiya, guys. Thanks for sticking around with me through the first few chapters of Despicable Me. I've been working on a few other stories and found that with 5 study halls a week, I can get to about 3 or 4 more chapters so you guys won't be left with a cliffhanger. :3 And in case you haven't noticed or assumed, the italics are to 'recap' what happened last chapter. Also, I will be putting translations for the foreign words that you read. :3 Enjoy this next chapter!)

"...scheisse.."

Saoru groaned as she stalked the halls of Funizuki Academy. She had been put into class F, the lowest class.

"Where the hell is it?!" she mumbled. She passed the A classroom, and looked inside with a sense of longing. "Aw, man!" she again groaned. If I would have not 'cheated' I'd be in that damned classroom! If A looks that nice.. how.. wait.. no.. this isn't it!

Saoru stopped at the 'door' (which was really just a worn tablecloth being used as a makeshift door) of the classroom. She paled. "Oh no."

Pushing the tablecloth aside, she strode into the classroom with her eyes closed.. She twitched when she heard a voice from the back.

"Hey now, don't slam the door."

Saoru opened her eyes and looked upon the very smug face of Yuuji. "Why you… little..." she seethed, resisting the urge to strangle the red-head.

"Last time I checked, I was taller than you.." Yuuji mocked. There was a way about that tone of voice that made Saoru red with anger. "I'm only 5'4". Anything is taller than me." Saoru said sweetly, voice dripping with hate.

"Everyone, this is Saoru Matsukata. She cheated on the placement exam. Please treat her as you'd treat your friends. Saoru, if you would find a seat please."

Saoru had paled at the word 'cheat.' She nodded feebly, and walked over to the only open seat, which just so happened to be next to Yuuji's. "Can't stay away from me, huh?" he asked with a grin.

"These aren't even chairs," she mumbled.

Akihisa rose from his mat on the floor. "I say we fight our way back to A class this year."

"Wait, we can do that?" Saoru asked, perking up at the thought of being inside the beautiful classroom. With actual doors.

Akihisa nodded. "Yeah, we did it last year."

Saoru smiled. "When do we start?"

"Okay. Everyone listen up and shut your trap. We go in here, summon our avatars, and fight with our all. Yuuji, you go here as a blocker. Same with you, Akihisa. Get it?" Saoru explained.

"Got it." Yuuji said apathetically. Akihisa nodded.

"Good, let the games begin."
