Chapter 2 - The beginning of a new world

Monday

"Takeshi Ryuu! Get that behind of yours down here and in this seat before I have to come up and drag you down!" A young teenage boy, 19 years old, with medium long white hair walks down the stairs, pulling his sleeves down on his white jacket to hide the bandage wraps that covered from his wrists to his elbows.

"Sorry ma'am," Takeshi sighs.

"Now, it sure is nice to see those light blue eyes once in a while this early in the morning, ya know?" A woman with long white hair made up into a messy bun stood at the stove in the small kitchen.

"Arhiyan Ryui, just because your nephew has a different last name as you doesn't mean you have to make him call you 'ma'am'," a short black haired man sitting at the table sighs.

"You keep your mouth shut mister 'fore I kick you out of this here house! I let you stay overnight, the last thing you need to do is look a gift horse in the mouth!" The woman glares at the man as she speaks.

"I'm going to head off to school…." the boy sighs as he grabs a ham sandwich off of the table and a black book bag from the corner of the room.

"You gonna say bye to your aunt, Takeshi?" The woman lightly growls at the boy.

"Yes ma'am. My apologies. Have a good day. I will be heading off to school now," the boy gives the woman a smile before leaving the house.

"Class, welcome to a new year. We have a new student today, so let's show him our best," Mr.Himu stood at the front of the huge classroom, a toothpick hanging out his mouth as his dark green/grey hair covered half of his face, including one of his light orange eyes. Takeshi walks into the classroom with a slender but furry white wolf with light teal eyes trailing in after him.

"Everyone, this is Takeshi Ryuu. Please give him a welcoming hello," he says followed by the whole class saying hello "welcomingly". More like slightly annoyed.

"Takeshi…. There are no pets allowed on school grounds," the wolf catches his attention.

"She's not my pet, she's my wolf," Takeshi walks to an open seat and casually sits down as the wolf follows him.

"It's a pet," Mr.Himu watches it.

"First, she's not an 'it'. She's a wolf. Secondly, her name's Maiman. She stays with me. If you'll look at your files there, it clearly says 'Maiman may stay with Takeshi Ryuu no matter the circumstances.' So, I believe I can have her with me," Takeshi looks at the teacher's laptop then back at the teacher.

"No. It does not. It clearly states that…" the teacher snarls back then shuts up when he looks at his laptop.

"How did you do that?" He glares at Takeshi.

"What're you talking about? I just stated what my file says. Maiman is my helper," Takeshi pulls up his sleeves, revealing the bandages around his wrists and the class slightly gasps at the sight.

"Now, it seems that we've gotten off on the wrong foot, I believe we should try again. Hello, I'm Takeshi Ryuu. And you are?" He looks Mr.Himu right in the eyes.

"Hello Takeshi, my name is Mr.Himu. And yes, I believe we did start off on the wrong foot," Mr.Himu sits down in his chair. "Now let's begin class, shall we?"

"We'll start with training. You all can learn the textbook stuff later. Today, we learn the fun stuff. I will learn the stuff about you, like your statistics and rankings and if you should be in a beginner class or not. Run around the school three times then report back to me for your time," Mr.Himu smiles and the class takes off running around the school. As ten minutes pass, Takeshi and another classmate named Kinu finish their third lap. Kinu has fluffy white hair and very light blue eyes.

"Ten minutes exactly you two," Mr.Himu looks at them suspiciously.

"Next, we have the fighting. Each of you will fight the man standing in front of you. They have been told to go at you easy. Level one to be exact. If you beat them, then your ranking will be higher up on the class list. Begin." Mr.Himu speaks.

A few minutes pass and the Kinu and Takeshi finish battling their opponents.

"Well, looks like you two don't belong in this class. I'll have the dean move you two to a more advanced class," Mr.Himu walks over to the two boys with a sigh.
