A chance meeting at the Cafeteria

After both Cindy and Chris arrived at the teachers' office, they both introduced themselves and handed them their respective classroom numbers, something that made both of them very discouraged, since unfortunately they were in different classes.

"Well, it seems that we don't have the happiness of being partners, right?" Chris said, as he put a silly smile on his face and saw the number he had touched.

"Hehe ~ well, we can always meet at lunch or recess, by the way, you said you live in Gotham right? Will you move to this city from now on or will you still be there?" Cindy asked, since she remembered how dangerous the city was where Chris lived, after all, not just any city separates it from the rest just because, right.

"Well, I will still live in Gotham, after all, there is my parents' house, you could say that it is one of the last memories that they left me ..." said Chris, while lamenting his other self , which had lived several things since childhood just to be a little different from the others.

Sensing the sad atmosphere that was being created, Cindy can't help but put on an expression of guilt, which, upon being noticed by Chris, caused the latter to quickly revert to his previous state, surprising Cindy quite a bit, but still bearing some guilt, as she thought it had triggered a bad memory for him.

"S-So, how about we have lunch together, I mean, you don't have plans to eat with someone do you?"

"Mmm ... okay, but how will we find each other, do you want me to go to your class to go together?" Cindy said, as she thought about the different ways in which various rumors could be circulating and reaching the ears of her authoritarian parents.

"I don't think that's correct, what do you think if we are already in the cafeteria, the first one to arrive should save a seat for the other, what do you think?" Chris asked, as they both started up the stairs.

"Nod * Okay, you better not be late, or your seat will be taken by someone else" Cindy said, as she tapped Chris's shoulder and started to go the other way he was going.

Watching as the rather amusing girl starts to walk towards her living room, Chris simply shakes his head from side to side, wondering if he should be late on purpose, but leaving his doubt for later, he started walking towards where his classroom was supposed to be.

Once in front of his classroom, he greets the teacher who was beginning to enter. While he was at it, he explained her situation to the teacher, getting her to welcome him once he introduced her class first.

"Good morning everyone, maybe many of you already know me, but for those who are new, I am your science teacher, you can call me Miss Smith" said the teacher Smith, who began to write her name on the blackboard behind her desk.

Once he finished writing his name, he began to talk about the subjects he taught in his assignment and how it would serve them on a day-to-day basis. When she finished explaining each of the purposes of her subject and asked the people in the classroom, she made everyone shut up and began to say.

"Well, as you all know, the program created by Wayne Enterprise and its affiliates is based on the fact that several students can win scholarships in different schools and get different types of help that this same company provides them ..." looking at where I was Chris, she's talking again. "It is for this reason that I would like to introduce you to a new student who managed to pass this year's exam, with you, Christopher James Miller!"

Hearing her name, Chris takes a few breaths before finally deciding to enter the classroom, managing to gain the full attention of the entire room and several girly sighs. Looking at all the people in the classroom, he is too surprised, despite not showing it in his expression, but he never expected that he would be in the same class as Peter Parker, which, unlike the many comics he read, had an appearance very similar to Tom Holland, but with slight changes such as the use of glasses and somewhat old clothes for the current era ...

"Are you okay, Mr. Miller?" Mrs. Smith asked, since she noticed that the young man seemed somewhat confused when he saw his classmates.

"Y-Yeah, sorry about that ..." Shifting his attention back to where his new teammates were, Chris starts talking again and says. "Nice to meet you all, I hope we can get along all year long."

Ending their greeting, everyone was looking at him in different ways, but the girls had the biggest expressions, who, seeing the smile on Chris's face, seemed to have seen a rather beautiful light monopolize the entire room.

"Thank you for your greeting Mr. Miller, now do any of you have any questions for your new partner?" asked the teacher.

"Since when have you lived in Gotham City, Christopher?" asked a random colleague.

Shifting his attention to the person who had asked the question, Chris begins to say. "Don't worry, you can just tell me Chris, most of the people I know call me that .... Regarding your question, I recently moved back to live in Gotham City, most of my life I lived abroad."

"Why did you move to Gotham City if you lived abroad?" asked a red-haired girl, she had greenish eyes and quite striking clothes, which consisted of a leather jacket, a white shirt and blue pants along with white sneakers.

Seeing the redhead quite familiar, Chris simply puts on a smile and decides to respond, even though the answer was somewhat sad. "Well ... due to an accident my parents suffered, I had to leave my studies abroad and go back to America"

When Chris responded to his partner's question, everyone in the room was completely silent, including Peter, who despite doing what appeared to be a robotics project, managed to hear Chris's response.

After several minutes had passed, the silence just kept getting longer and longer, this only ended the moment the teacher started coughing and said. "Well, it seems that there are no more questions for you Mr. Miller, what do you think if he takes a seat, the one next to Mr. Parker"

Seeing where the teacher was pointing, Chris simply nodded and started walking over to where her seat was. Once he arrived at his place, the project that Peter was doing seemed quite interesting to him, but before he could speak to the young nerd, he heard a voice coming from the folder in front of him.

"I'm really sorry I asked that, I didn't really mean to ..." said the redhead who had asked Chris a question earlier.

"Okay, you don't need to feel bad about that, by the way, what's your name, beautiful lady?" Chris asked, who was very surprised to see the notification that appeared in front of him.

[+3 points of interest with Mary Jane]

"Jo ~, you seem to be very good at speaking huh .... by the way, my name is Mary Jane Watson, but you can just call me MJ" said Mary Jane, giving Chris a playful wink.

After that, both began a small conversation, until the time came when the teacher was going to start her class. In the middle of the teacher's class, Chris noticed that Peter was beginning to drop some pieces of his project, but due to a self-reflection, he reached to reach each of them before they even managed to touch the ground, surprising both Peter and the blonde who was behind him.

"This, I think you should be more careful ... Parker right?" Chris whispered, not wanting to make a big fuss, much less put all the attention on him again.

"Amazing, how were you able to do that? -... right, thank you very much" Peter whispered, since he had seen the silence that Chris could make him.

Spending a few seconds after that little incident, both Chris and Peter began to chat about what the latter was doing, the truth was that Peter was very impressed that the boy next to him knew a lot about robotics, since he simply thought that the boy next to him was a handsome and womanizing lout as a bully blond guy inside his living room, but once having exchanged several words with Chris, he realized that he was completely wrong about his earlier thinking.

Ring* Ring* Ring*

Hearing the bell that warned them that it was time for halftime, Chris quickly put away some of his things and got up from his seat, to go to the dining room at once and save a seat for Cindy, but he was stopped by Mary Jane, Peter and a blonde just as beautiful as the first mentioned, wore a white shirt, over this she had a sleeveless sweater and wore a black skirt, she had beautiful blue eyes like the ocean, her skin unlike MJ it was pale as snow, but it gave it a rather charming touch, almost like an immaculate marble that any artist would hope to paint on it.

Seeing the trio that appeared in front of him, Chris puts on a friendly smile, before starting to say. "Mmm ... is something wrong Pete, M.J?"

"Well, I was talking to our little Pete and his friend, and I was wondering if you would like to go eat with us, I mean, this way you won't feel isolated from the others because you are the new right?" MJ said, as she introduced Chris to the girl next to Peter.

"Hi, my name is Gwen Stacy, I thank you for helping Pete, it can be a bit distracted at times" Gwen said, putting a somewhat complicated smile on her face.

"No wonder, but do you think it would be okay if someone else joins us?" Chris asked, thinking it would be nice if he introduced Cindy to the 'spider gang'.

Looking at each other, both Peter and M.J and Gwen nod at Chris's question, getting the latter to put a contented smile on his face. After that, the four of them headed towards the dining room, but once he entered along with the others, he was quite surprised, to see Cindy eating together with a red-haired and quite beautiful girl.

Being dumbfounded once he managed to recognize the girl next to his friend, he had not realized that Cindy had already noticed him and was waving at him to come closer, he only managed to regain his consciousness after hearing Peter ask if the girl who was watching them and had been moving raising her arm was the friend he talked about so much.

Nodding at Peter's curious question, Chris begins to walk over to where Cindy and the red-haired girl were, once he was near the table they were at, he says. "Wow, looks like you beat me huh"

"Well, what can I tell you, I'm really fast, by the way, will you introduce me to your friends?" Cindy asked, as she too was surprised and slightly annoyed, that Chris had made more friends than her in just her first day at this school.

"Sure ..." shifting his attention to his companions, he starts speaking again and says. "Cindy, these are Peter, M.J and Gwen; guys, this is Cindy and well, her friend is ...."

Seeing Chris's somewhat confused look, Cindy lets out a rather charming little laugh at her friend's expression, so, without doing so much drama, she says. "Her name is Barbara, Barbara Gordon, I don't know if you know her father, I mean, she just started living in Gotham right?"

"I see ... So you are Uncle Gordon's daughter, wow, I didn't expect her exaggerations about your appearance to be true" said Chris, as he tried to be ignorant of the girl's identity.

"Uncle Gordon? Do you know my father?" Barbara asked since she couldn't remember who Cindy's friend was, even if she had flattered her and she herself could say that he was one of the most handsome boys she has ever met, of course, also counting a certain bat and his partner.

"Well ..." as he sat down and waved at his classmates to sit down as well, Chris began to recount his relationship with Commissioner Gordon and how he came to see him as a father figure to him.

"Well ..." as he sat down and waved at his teammates to sit down as well, Chris began to recount his relationship with Commissioner Gordon and how he came to see him as a father figure to him.

"I understand ..... sorry for being so disrespectful to ask" said Barbara, as she tried to think of some way to alleviate the rather tense atmosphere that had been created, but that was inefficient, since, after she said her comment, Chris started talking and said. "Okay, it's been several days and even weeks since that, besides, Uncle Gordon has helped me a lot since then, by the way, he always talks about you and how wonderful you are"

"Hey, you don't think you're flirting with Barbara a lot, it seems I got confused with you Chris" Cindy said, putting a pouty expression on her beautiful face and thinking of different ways to annoy her friend.

"Wow, I didn't think you were so gallant Chris, I think you should take care of me from now on" said MJ, as he moved away from Chris's side as he had joined the game that Cindy had created to ease the tense atmosphere that it had been created before.

Seeing the two girls quite playful but attractive, he just puts on a somewhat wry smile and starts to actively chat with each other, but while he was at it, he felt a strong tremor in his brain, almost like someone was trying to form a entrance into his mind, so, using his ability [Zero Mind] and asking Lía to activate the mental protection, Chris manages to deflect the strong pain he had and having recovered from it, although causing somewhat confused looks from his companions, Chris cautiously looks at a certain table that was being occupied by about 6 people and is very surprised to see a red-haired girl just like Barbara and MJ watching it ....

"(Wait, what are they doing in this place ?!)"
