Kaldur meets Conner
After Artemis had shown him how to properly use the bow, Kaldur waited for her outside the change room, just as he had promised her.
Artemis walked out, wearing the same uniform as Megan but with pants instead of a skirt (we all know how much she hates skirts), "Hey. Ready for lunch?"
He nodded and they walked to Artemis' locker, passing the football team and a younger student, and were surprised to see Wally leaning against Artemis' locker munching on a bag of chips. When Wally saw them he threw away the empty bag and ran to meet them. He was faster than Kaldur had imagined...
"Hey, Kaldur! Fancy meeting you here." Then he noticed Artemis. "What are you doing here?"
"It's my locker. What are you doing here Baywatch? Not waiting for me are you?"
Wallys face turned as red as his hair, "I so was not! I just happened to be waiting for my good friend Kaldur to get out of class."
"Yeah. Sure you were. Admit it Baywatch, you're stalking me."
"Would you stop with the name thing! AND I'M NOT STALKING YOU!" Wally yelled loud enough so that almost every head in the hallway was now looking at them.
"Whatever." Artemis scoffed and walked past Wally to her locker, leaving the two teens.
Kaldur decided that a change of subject was needed. "So you were waiting for me?"
Wally took his eyes off of Artemis, "Uh, yeah. I bumped into Conner earlier and since Megan wanted you to have lunch with her, we thought we could get the whole gang together. You know, so we can all hang out."
"We being who?"
"You, Megan, Conner, Artemis, and yours truly of course!" Kaldur did not miss the way he grumbled Artemis. Obviously Wally had some feelings for her, Artemis most likely returning the favour, and these were also not missed by the Atlantean teen. He smiled at the thought.
"We should wait for Artemis then, if she is also joining us."
"Fine but she should hurry up." Wally pouted causing Kaldurs smile to widen. Artemis soon appeared by Kaldur with a brown bag in her hand.
"Ready?" she asked. The boys nodded and they walked to the cafeteria, Kaldur walking inbetween the two, when a voice called out,
"Kaldur! Wally! Artemis! Over here!" yelled Megan from the farthest table. Beside her sat a boy, Kaldur's age, with short black hair, gray-blue eyes and wearing a football team jacket. He and Wally shared a high five.
"Good to see ya dude." Wally exclaimed. "This is Kaldur. He's cool in a silent, calm kind of way. Kaldur, this is Conner Kent. Football superstar and next in line for prom king!"
Kaldur could see Conner blushing from Wallys introduction. Kaldur held out his hand, "It is nice to meet you. Wally has spoken much about you."
Conner took his hand, "Nothing bad I hope."
"Nothing but praise." Kaldur glanced at Wally, who was giving him a look that said, Thank you for saving me from a life of pain.
Kaldur sat next to Conner, Wally next to Megan, until Artemis made Wally move over and they began bickering again.
"So Kaldur," Megan said. "How are you liking your first day? I heard you have classes with both Artemis and Wally."
"The day has been fine. Wally is in my science class and Artemis is in my PE class. It was very convenient."
"Well I think it's great. Now you have some friends to talk with."
"Kaldur." Conner said suddenly. "What's with the tattoos?"
The others were silent until Kaldur answered. "How did you know about-"
"I can see them on your hands under the sleeves."
"Oh. Well where I come from it is customary that when a boy turns 16 he is to take upon the tribal tattoos of his people. But it is something I do not like to boast about around others."
"I think it's wonderful." Megan said with a smile. "It's from your homeland and I think that it's great of you to carry on tradition."
"Plus it makes you look tough." Wally commented, earning a punch on the arm from Artemis.
Kaldur looked at Conner, who gave him an approving smile. At least Kaldur had met someone who talked just about as much as he did.
This was short... but Supey doesn't say much so it was kind of hard... but at least I got some SpiteFire in there! BTW! Bonus points for whoever can point out some serious foreshadowing! Hint- the next chapter is my final intro chapter before I start getting serious! And you only have one more to go soooooo... NO SPOILERS!
