Chapter 2: The New Teacher And Friends
*RING* *RING* *RING*
"*moan* Who is calling me?" I woke up to grab my phone to see who it was. I looked to see that it was my mom.
"Hello?"
"Hi Kaze? Are you ok?" My mom asked.
"Yeah, I just woke up. Did you need something?" I asked her.
"Well I just wanted to ask, are you ready?"
"Uh… for what?"
"You know. Your first day of School. Magic School."
"Oh yeah. That. Yeah I'm ready for the first day of school. I'm so ready for this moment."
"Haha! I know you will, sweetie. I can't wait to tell everyone about this. They will be shocked to see your magic, Kaze. I just… know it."
"Yeah. But I need to make an impression first before I can get the chance to use magic. I wonder what types of magic I use."
"Well you'll get the chance. Hopefully you understood the elements." Mom said.
"I know what I'm doing. I've been learning about magic for many years. And although anywhere in my DNA or around my body doesn't have anything to do with magic, I'm still gonna find a way."
"Ok well… just try your best to stay focused on school. At the Magic School I meant."
"I know, Mom."
"And try to be careful out there when you're using magic."
"Alright. I'm about to get ready, Mom."
"Ok. Kaze, Good luck. I'm counting on you."
"Thank you. Bye, now."
"Bye." I hung up the phone and started to get up.
So today is the day. My first day of Primp Town Magic School. Geez, am I ever excited to create my talents in Primp Town Magic School for the first time ever. Although I think there will not be a lot of students around that school because many of them do not know that school. And now, I will finally take a step to the building and put in all the effort I can take. Once I complete all of this, I'm pretty sure everyone, and I mean everyone will be surprised at what I just did to myself. I mean personally, that's what I would love to do best. I'm a special Kaze that everyone would wanna meet.
So I had to brush my teeth, eat a bit of breakfast (I made some grilled cheese), and finally put on a black t-shirt with vertical light purple stripes around the entire shirt, with these white jean shorts. I also had on some purple and white boots to go with it. And now… I'm ready. Really ready for my, how people say, "debut" of Primp Town Magic School. I feel like I'm gonna be special. But I might not know many people on the way there. And now I walked out the door and headed for the school.
It was actually a little warmer than it was yesterday and last night. I grabbed my phone from my pocket and checked the temperature from there. It was only 71 degrees outside, so I guess that should be fine at least. Now I don't have to suffer from being the coldest girl as usual. Sometimes I get the chills, but not all the time when I'm in a cold environment.
Geez, I need a sweater or something.
I have now approached the school and I was ready to make my first appearance ever. Today's the day. I now have confidence to make a name for myself here.
I opened the door to walk inside of the school. The building was kinda nice. I feel like I was the only person here…
"Kaze."
Until I heard a woman's voice. I looked on my right to see an adult with long purple curly hair and… a cat? I believe they were calling my name.
"Oh, hi there." I said to the two.
"Hello Kaze. I'm Professor Accord of Primp Town Magic School, but you can call me Ms. Accord."
"And I am Popoi."
"Oh, nice to meet you both, Ms. Accord and Popoi."
"It's nice to meet you too, Kaze. Welcome to Primp Town Magic School. I heard your mother wanted to come here to study magic right?"
"Yes. I've been waiting a long time for this. I may not know about this "playing Puyo" type of stuff, but I might be able to prove myself worthy as long as it has something to do with magic."
"Well you're in luck, my friend. We'll happily teach you everything you need to know." Popoi said.
"Wow. Thank you guys a bunch. I can happily trust you guys for this. By the way, are there a lot of students around here? Because I don't think I saw that many people around when I first got here."
"Oh. Well I have 6 kiddies inside my classroom. I can introduce them to you now that you're the new student here."
"Oh sure. I won't mind."
Seriously?! Only 6?
"Ok. Follow us. It's not that far from here." I soon followed them to their classroom. I really hope the students are really not weird. I have seen a lot of boys in school back in London that are really weird. They like to look on their phones watching these really dumb videos like "people pranking other people in public". Like, really? Who does that in public? I saw most of the kids got in trouble which resulted in phones being taken. I wasn't one of them. I'm more of an honest teenager. Seriously.
"So Kaze. You're from the United Kingdom. What's it like there, meow?" Popoi asked me.
"Well, everyone is just normal people speaking English, but we are actually British, so it's a different accent. Not to mention, there are towns, cities, even better schools, and all that stuff."
"Ahh… I see. Do you have any friends over there?"
"Um… to be honest, no I don't."
"Oh my. Really?" Ms. Accord asked.
"No, I'm usually quiet in most classes. I don't talk to that many students there. Well, only a few, but not that much."
"It's ok, Kaze. I believe my students will entertain you more once you get to know them." Ms. Accord said.
"Yeah. I suppose."
"And we're here. Now just stay put. I'll tell you when It's time to come in."
"Ok, Ms. Accord." As I did what I was told, Ms. Accord opened the door to enter the classroom as I was paying attention to her signal.
"Hello, Kiddies." Ms. Accord said.
"Good Morning, Ms. Accord." The Students said.
"Before we get started on our lesson, today is a special day." Ms. Accord said.
"Wow, is it today where we can have multiple assignments?" A boy said. Of course there's one boy.
"Really, Klug? Why would there be multiple assignments today? You know that it would be too much work." The second student sounded like a girl. So it's one boy and one girl out of six people. Now who's left?
"Well excuse me for having a foul mouth like yours."
"Foul Mouth?! Why I oughta…"
Wow. It's gonna get ugly.
"Guys! Enough! No more!" Popoi Yelled.
"So what's the special announcement? Is it exciting?" Another girl said. So it's three out of six students. Two girls. One boy.
"I think it's bug season, right?" Another boy said. Two girls, two boys.
Bug season? Are you for real?
"Sig, why? Please tell me why." The First girl asked.
"I don't know."
"What do you mean you don't know?!"
"Simmer down, Raffina. It's not just that either. It's something else." Ms. Accord said.
"Oh."
"Don't feel bad, Sig. At least we might be able to find some after school." There was the third girl. Now there are 3 Girls and 2 boys.
"Can we just get to the special announcement, teacher?"
"Yes we are. So as I was saying before, today we have a very special announcement. We have a new student today."
"Really? Another Student? Is it a girl?" The second girl asked.
"That's right, Amitie. She is very special once you get to know her." Ms. Accord said.
"I really hope it's not another foul mouth person like Raffina." The boy said.
Foul-mouthed?!
"KLUG, I WILL REALLY… *sigh* never mind."
"Klug, mind your language, please. And Raffina, Control your temper." Popoi said.
"Yes, Popoi." Both of them said calmly.
"Alrighty, I shall now introduce… the new girl. You can come in now." Ms. Accord said.
Alright, here we go, Kaze. Let's do this.
I rolled my neck for a few seconds and then opened the door without stopping and I came inside the classroom. I can see that there are three girls (I was right), and there were three boys. So there are not many boys around here. That's what I like to see.
"Now then. Please introduce yourself to the class." Ms. Accord said.
"Hi everyone. I am Kaze Matsuzaki. But you can call me Kaze. I just came from this country called the United Kingdom, Liverpool. And I hope we can have a good time together. And, yeah." Everyone clapped at me.
"That was excellent, Kaze. Now you can take your seat. There's an open seat next to Raffina. You can sit there." Ms. Accord said.
"O-oh… right here?" I asked as Ipointed at the empty desk.
"Yes."
"Ok." I went to my desk that was next to this Raffina girl.
"Now, kiddies. I gotta make just one more errand. Feel free to keep chatting if you like." Ms. Accord said as she exited, leaving me with the 6 students that are here.
"Another one?! I thought you were done!" The boy with glasses asked in shock.
"Yeah, but I almost forgot something. We'll be back though to start class. So again, please feel free to chat. Raffina. Klug. Please do not bicker at each other again once I step out of the classroom." Ms. Accord said as she left the classroom, which left the boy a huge sigh out of annoyance.
That was quite an introduction. Now that's just 7 students in this classroom. I wonder how me being in Primp Magic School will play out.
"Hey, new girl." The first girl was calling me. I looked to see that she has pink curly hair with a wing hairpin.
I can also see her orange and yellow outfit that looks like a school uniform…
…
I mean if it is.
"Kaze, I meant. Well… if it is your name. Sorry. I apologize if I was having a temper tantrum. The boy that was talking nonsense was Klug. He likes to be a y'know, stuck-up and rude bookworm. But other than that, he's nice to other people. Me, on the other hand, he's my worst nightmare. He always gives me problems. My name's Raffina by the way. The richest girl in Primp Town."
"It's nice to meet you, Raffina. I understand your anger. Boys can be annoying sometimes, especially with that "Stuck-up bookworm" you call him or whatever." We both giggled it off after what I just called the boy that was kinda rude.
…
Which was taken from Raffina.
"So who's the rest of the 4 people?" I asked Raffina.
"Oh yeah. Hello~. Anyone. Are you gonna introduce yourselves to Kaze or what?" Raffina said.
"Huh? Oh. Whoops. I dozed off. Looks like I was a little late on my introduction. *giggle* Hello there, Kaze! My name is Amitie! It's nice to meet you! My dream is to become a Fantastic Magician!"
Oh?
"I see. It's nice to meet you too, Amitie."
Fantastic Magician? That's more like becoming a magic user. Interesting.
"S-Same Here, Kaze. My name is Lidelle. It's nice seeing you here."
"Same here, Lidelle." I looked over to see the boy that was behind me. He looks like he's dozed off as well.
"Sig?" Lidelle asked.
Sig? Wait… that's his name?
"I got this." Raffina said.
*SLAM*
And slammed the boy's desk.
"Huh?"
"Wake up! You're not gonna introduce yourself to Kaze?!"
"Huh? Oh. Sig is my name. Do you have bugs on you?"
W-What?!
"Uh… no. But all I could say is nice to meet you Sig."
"Don't mind him. He's really into bugs. He knows all of them." Raffina said to me.
"Oh… Ok."
"Yeah. I know. Boys are weird these days."
"R-Raffina. They are still our friends. Even Sig." Amitie said.
"I know. But they still need to learn how to get along. Especially Mr. Stuck-Up Four eyes over there."
"Hey! Don't mention me! I do get along with people. And for proof, I have every ability to be nice to newcomers here in Primp! Watch… and learn." The other boy said as he was walking up to me with a serious face.
"Salutations, Kaze. I'm very sorry if I was rude to you earlier. I am Klug. The smartest student in Primp. Raffina can have a temper, But just know this. Raffina cannot work with magic since she's into this… beauty business or combat business. But that also means she's not even really smarter than me out of all the students. Kyahahahaha! But! I do hope you enjoy your time here." He started to walk away from me.
I looked at Raffina's face. Her face is really red. No really. Like extremely red. She really wants to kill this boy. But I didn't want to see her fight. Just not when I'm here on the first day.
"O-Okay. Raffina…"
"*sigh* You know what? I'm gonna let that slide. For now. I really do not want to embarrass you. And I could get in trouble if Ms. Accord finds out. So I should really control my temper."
"Yes. I think you really should. No offense Raffina." There was another male voice. He was big though. But I had one thought.
How tall is he?! No offense… But how OLD is he?!
"I don't need your help, TaruTaru. But you could at least introduce yourself to the new girl."
"Oh, right. Hello there, Kaze. I am TaruTaru. Nice to meet you too."
TaruTaru, huh? I might need to ask him for his height…
…
…
…
No! I'm really overthinking it! Get yourself together, Kaze!
"H-Hey Kaze?" Amitie asked.
"O-Oh. Sorry, I was just spacing out. It's nice seeing you too, TaruTaru. Speaking of which, are there any more people around this world?"
"Yes. Lots of people once you get to know them. But they are from different worlds."
"I see."
"What's it like from your home?" Amitie asked me.
"My home, the United Kingdom, has millions of people around the country before America was known as the most famous country in the world. Although I'm British of course. It has a lot of cities, stores, playgrounds, and all that good stuff. So maybe it has the stuff you guys might like."
"That's so cool, Kaze!" Amitie said.
"I agree, you must be very lucky for yourself." Lidelle said.
"What's a country?" Sig asked.
"Y-You don't know what a country is?" I asked him.
"I don't know what a country is either." Raffina said.
How odd. They must be in a different world.
"Well, Sig. A country is an area of land that has its own government."
…
…
…
…
…
…
It was one and a half minutes of silence until…
"You see what I mean by that, Kaze?" Klug asked.
"I'll… explain in more detail later." I said.
"Okay, then." Everyone said.
"But I have one question though. Are there any clothing stores in your home?" Raffina asked.
"Yeah. Lots of them."
"EUREKA! Now I can look more beautiful, no one can ever beat me for the best fashion I ever have, no matter which clothes I can buy that look so cute."
"But don't you have money?" I asked Raffina.
"Of course, girl. I'm the richest girl in Primp, remember? No one can ever have more money than me."
"Oh. Interesting."
Raffina then grew a quick smirk on her face looking at me knowing something else.
"Let me guess. You are rich too, huh?"
"W-What? No. I-I don't have that much money on me. I swear."
"You don't have to be nervous. I believe you."
"Oh. Ok."
"And besides, we got all six of us to help you out. Including the others I'll introduce to you later on, okay?"
"Ok."
"Alright, Class. I'm back. So let's begin with our lesson." Ms. Accord said. "But, before we do so, we need to warm ourselves up with a round of Puyo Puyo, so choose a partner."
"I'll deal with Mr. No- I mean Klug over there… for once." Raffina said.
"I'll play with Sig." Amitie said.
"Guess that means it's just me and you, TaruTaru." Lidelle said.
"I guess so." He said.
"Oh, Kaze. You don't have a partner. And you also don't know how to play Puyo as well. Ok, come with me and I'll explain everything you need to know."
"Ok." I walked with Ms. Accord out of the classroom.
So finally my time has come for me to use magic once and for all.
