13 CHAPTER 12:I LIKE MY STAND

JEAN POV

"Hey Jean, what is your relationship with Daniel over there?" Amy, my deskmate ask me as I glance at a sleeping student who just make me crack a grin knowing he help me a lot this morning.

"He is a good friend of mine," I reply to her question.

"Are you sure you two are not a couple? I mean you lock arm with him when you enter the class." Ask Dee, Amy's friend who sits in front of her to me.

"Y-yeah," I reply.

"And here I thought you and him are a couple. So anyway Jean, will you still come to the party at Duncan's house this Saturday?" Amy ask me as I shake my head.

"No, I" Taking a peek at Daniel for a second." have matters to do that day. It is a very important one." I tell her.

"Really? Then Duncan will be disappointed hearing that. " Dee says to Jean.

"Yeah, Jean, why you still did not get with Duncan, I mean he is a famous and rich guy.

" Amy ask me as I almost curse her knowing she is jealous of me since she tries to get into a relationship with Duncan but fails. Or more accurately he rejected her.

"Hush you. I am not interested in him." I reply.

"Then who are you interested in?" Dee replies making me smiles hearing that question.

"A person." Remembering Daniel's action this morning." who help me in a dire situation." I reply.

"I wonder who that person is?" Amy ask me as I decide to not reply to her question before Tim who enters the class with a new pant as it got wet by bottled water.

His angry expression can be seen on his face as he immediately sits on his chair while cursing of what happened to him before.

It is still weird about how a mineral bottle suddenly has a hole that makes the water fell to his pant.

"I wonder if it is your doing?" I ask Daniel telepathically but only hears the sound of snores making me feel stupified knowing Daniel is really sleeping right now.

It is time for the lunch break where the previous me will sit with some of the famous students but today, I decide not to because of a certain loner who is still sleeping on his desk peacefully.

"Jean, come on, hurry up, the others are probably waiting for us at the cafeteria," Amy says to me.

"Sorry but I decide to have lunch with someone else. You guys go on first." I tell them as I get up from my seat and walk toward Daniel's table to wake this sleepy head up.

"Wake up Daniel. It is now lunch break." I say to him but still, he did not get up even though with our mind being connected, I can sense he is waking up.

"No. I want to sleep. Go ahead have lunch with your friends." He replies as I smile wryly as I know if it had another boy, they will be super excited when I invite them for lunch.

"Bad luck to you since I am not like most of the boys." I hear his response making me sigh as my hand start to move toward his right ear.

"Get up before I pinch your right ear to wake you up," I say to her as I hear a snort coming from him.

"Who are you? My mother. " He replies with a dull tone as I pinch his right ear.

"Ouch. So painful," he replies with the same dull tone.

"Come on Daniel. Let's go to the cafeteria to have lunch." I tell him as I hear a sigh coming from him.

"Fine. Tsk. Troublesome woman." I hear him reply as he opens his eyes with his eyes look at me with an annoyed expression can be seen on his face.

He then gets up while yawning with him closing his mouth with his right hand.

"Are you happy now?" He asks me as I just smile making him feels more annoyed.

"Come on," I say with I grab his left arm and once again drag him outside of the classroom.

Walking in the school hallways without hearing my thoughts make me knows that I did not have to hear many people thought that some of them are good and bad. Or sometimes indecent.

Arriving at the cafeteria, we become the attention though both of us ignored their states and glares, mostly the glares directed to Daniel who did not give a damn about their glares.

"Wow! That is some good sarcasm you say about me." Daniel says to me making me chuckle as we proceed to fill in the tray with food.

Mostly, I fill mine with chicken nuggets, mash potatoes, and broccoli with mineral water.

Meanwhile, Daniel fills his tray with fried chicken, mash potato, sausages and broccoli with him picking soda for his drink.

We sit at the corner of the cafeteria where he eats his food while I eat mine.

Of course, we held conversation through our telepathic link.

"So how were you able to you know, able to completely somehow block your mind from being read?" I ask him as he looks at me with a blank face.

"I had a thick skull mind that even your power unable to penetrate through." He replied making me snort knowing that he did not give me the answer I want.

"Fine, then how were you able to make my powers to not go havoc?" I ask him as he seems to be in deep thought as this time he answers my question truthfully.

"I copy your power and then used the copied power to block your power from going havoc." He replied making me feels stupified as his method of containing down my power is simple like that.

"Just like that?" I ask him as he nods his head.

"Just like that." He says to me as I sigh knowing I will never get to know what his real power is.

All I know he is immune to telepathy, mind-reading ability and copies other superpowers useful to calm me from going berserk.

"You can just ask me what my powers are?" He says to me.

"Really?" I ask him.

"All you should know is I am a jack of all trades." He tells me making me stares at him.

"Do not tell me you have multiple powers?" I ask him but he just smiles which make me realise that my guess is correct.

"Are you serious?" I ask him and he nods his head with his serious face.

But then I notice an incoming apple pie toward his head.

"Daniel! Behind y--" The apple pie then gets bounce back as if something punches it as it flies back toward the one who throws it, Toad.

Daniel just smirks as if nothing almost hit his head as the others laugh seeing Toad has his face hit by the apple pie.

DANIEL POV

Hearing the laughter from the students, I smile knowing that damn frog mutant gets his face full of apple pie.

I keep munching my food while Star Platinum now has appeared behind me to guard me in case some mutant or pricks tried to do anything funny to me.

Sensing a movement behind me, Star Platinum delivers a really strong kick that almost break the arm of the Toad who decide to teach me a lesson as his left arm now has broken as he crouches down while gripping his right arm.

I then stand up while putting my tray on his head.

"Oh. To think a trash bin is behind me. " I say making Toad angry as I can sense Jean who is dissatisfied with me.

"Daniel. Stop making him piss with you." She says to me but I move my head to my right as Toad seems to be using his tongue to attack me.

Gross. That is one super gross attack.

"Huh? I didn't know that you have a long tongue." I said loudly as my words start to gain the attention of the other students making Toad stop what he is going to do to me as he glares hatefully at me.

"I am going to teach you a lesson." He mutters to me.

"Bring it on small fry," I said to him as he already walks away.

"Heh. He is an easy opponent for me to defeat."

"Daniel? You know you should not make him mad." Jean says to me using our telepathic link mind.

"Yeah yeah. I know but he is the one who starts it first. He is lucky that I did not beat him up."

"I need you to be careful okay? Toad there is with some mutants who are on bad terms with us, the X-Men." Jean says to me.

"So what? I can beat them all." I tell her as she glances at me.

"Okay. I know you are strong but doesn't mean you need to pick a fight with others."

"Fine," I replied as I indulge my fried chicken until I see Scott arrived at our table.

"Urgh. For one second, can other people not interrupt us when we are eating?!" I thought in my head.

"Jean. I see you did not sit with your usual friends." He says to her as he tried to sit beside Jean but Jean get up and grab my arm.

Wait. What?

"Come on. Let's get out of here quickly." She said to me as I regretfully leave my precious foods and drink on the table.

"Hey. What's wrong with you and that red glass guy?" I ask her but she did not answer my question as we enter our classroom with her sit at my neighbour chair, ironically as my neighbour is absent.

"So can you tell me why you are angry with that red glass boy?" I ask Jean once more.

"It's about my power. I-I lose control yesterday and make many students of me. I even hurt Professor X, he is like our warden at that place that I stays. It happens during the evening where I mediate and then suddenly what I see is fire then the next thing I know, the whole place is shaken making many other mutants who live there to be scared because of my action.

Even my friends too as they seem to be afraid of me. T-they even did not dare to talk with me even during dinner so that makes me sad and angry."

"That's why you come to school alone huh? You are angry that you are alone and your supposed friends are not there to support and comfort you." I said to her as she nods her head.

"Well, at least you have me you know. I mean, if you ever have any trouble, you can say it to me and I maybe can solve your problem." I said to her as she reveals a smile when hearing my words.

"Thank you so much, Daniel." She said to me.

"So Daniel, have you had thought to join my place?" She asks me.

"Xavier Insititute. Well, no. I rather live in my place, besides, I have to leave my precious comfortable bed, so no. I can survive alone without joining any group." I tell her.

"Oh. Okay." She says as she then goes back to sit at her chair.

The day passes by as me and Jean focus on our class despite my attempt to just sleep in the class but Jean's constant call toward me make me unable to do it.

Damn it. I am sleepy and all I want to do is to fell asleep on my bed.

*KRINGGG!!!!*

"Finally. The school ended." I thought in my mind as I pack my books as I plan to buy a headphone and maybe search for some sport earphones that can be heard when I train myself.

"So can I follow you?" Jean said to me from my behind, had my senses is not enhanced I will jump in surprised and scream due to her sudden appearance and interference during my monologue.

"Sure," I replied seeing no problem of her following me.

I mean, yeah absolutely no problem allowing Jean Grey, the most wanted girl by many males in my school who want to be her boyfriend due to her beauty and intelligence to follow me, a loner who everyone had a hard time to know I also study here.

Such low pressure I am. Damn, at least my hero moniker, League is pretty popular in this city.

"So where we will go to buy your headphone and sport earphone?" She asks me as we already walk out of the school with me getting glares from the boy seeing me walk beside Jean.

I just smirk smugly as I decide to spice things up and make them these mobs angry.

My right arm envelopes Jean's waist who then I pull toward me as I reply to her question by whispering to her ear.

"Best Buy. Unless you decide to go somewhere else." I said to her in a seductive tone as Jean blushes hearing that.

Hoho. Who knows that I, a loner will be like that loner from anime that get all the beautiful girls, yay me. Bye normies life, hello MC life.

"T-then can we go visit this cafe that I heard about? It is not that far from the school." Jean said to me with a bashful tone.

"Sure. Anything for you." I said to her as she did not even try to break away from me making me smile seeing this girl reluctantly let me have away with her.

But then again, some males or should I say mobs are angry with me, namely Duncan who now marches furiously at me due to me have gotten Jean Grey on my grasp.

"Hmmp." Star Platinum appears beside me as he then goes toward Duncan shoes.

"Tie both shoelaces, so that way he will fall embarrassingly to the floor," I command my Stand who nods his head.

Ahh. A stand is something that I like to have since no one in this world, I think can sense, see or smell of the incoming Stand since the only person who can see them are the person who wields another Stand.

I am starting to miss the light novel of Dio Brando, who like me in Marvel Universe with Jojo Bizarre System. Wonder if he had gotten 10 stands or more in his arsenal?

"Ack!" Duncan's face fell on the ground as his shout of surprise make nearby students look at him who has fallen on the ground.

"PUHAHAHAHAHAHA!" A student laugh followed by the others as Jean and I contain our laugh even though it is funny.

But deep inside my mind, I am laughing loudly seeing this.

"Wonder who makes him fall hmm?" Jean ask me as she looks at me.

"Who knows? I am just a normal human." I replied.

"Come on you dork. We all knew you can do many invisible things that no one can see it except for you." Jean pointed out.

"Oh." Forget about that again.

...

"So Toad, where are you going?" A really big and fat boy ask Toad.

"Teaches someone a lesson." Toad replies.

"You fool. Do not expose yourself in the public and get your ass kick. You know how angry Mystique is if she hears this." Lance said toward the frog mutant who already hop away, not hearing me give a damn about his warning.

"Hmp. That fool." Pyro snorted.

"Come on, let's go to the arcade already. I wanted to make some new records in shooting zombies today." Pietro said as the Brotherhood group walk toward the arcade.

Far behind them is X-Men, a group founded by Charles Xavier who lives in Xavier Institue where many mutants live there to control their mutant powers.

"Where is Jean?" Scott(Cyclops) ask his group consist of Evans, Kitty(Shadow Cat), Kurt, Laura and Anna.

"Like the heck, we knew Scott," Evan asks while he is on his skateboard.

"Yes, after all this morning, she goes to the school without us," Kitty said.

"Maybe she has gotten back to the institute without us?" Kurt said toward Scott who frowns hearing that.

"Well, the perfect girl must be having some issue that she decided to a distance herself from us," Anna said.

"Agree," Laura said as Scott sigh in frustration as he walks back with speeding up his pace of walking leaving the others behind.

"Someone,is,moody," Anna said as the others chuckle hearing that.
