First Day of Class

Zen's POV

Sei: Hey, wake up.

Zen: Five more minutes' Mom.

Sei: I am not your mother and you promised to teach me Zen.

I open my eyes "HOW THE HELL DID SEI GET INTO MY ROOM!" I know it's dark. But, I can tell it's her because I can see the panda barrettes in her hair.

Zen: Why are you here? How are you here? Go away. It's 2:30 in the morning. I want to go back to sleep. Not only that, you bullshitted me with those crocodile tears. I am not doing anything.

Sei: I will pay you fifteen bucks an hour.

Zen: Get out so your master can change. We got a lot of work to do my apprentice. I prefer cash. But, I will also take a check or credit card. I will give you my information.

I get up and take a shower then Sei and I jump out the window. It is only the third floor. I have jumped from higher places. We go to the spot where we were yesterday and we begin to train. I tell her that Zen is all about getting a mental image. The stronger your mental image; the better your Zen will be. After a couple of hours, we stop calling it quits for the day. After that, I head back to my room. I see Decklyn smiling at me.

Decklyn: With your girl again? Benny and I heard the noise in your room.

Zen: She is not my girlfriend.

Benny: I didn't know you were dating someone from the Yang Family. You're pretty brave. Most people don't have the balls to mess with the Yang family's young mistress.

Decklyn: Her Dad is an ex-triad boss; very strong and powerful; not to mention, he has his own private army of cold blooded killers on standby.

Zen: I thought this was a place for people who wanted to become super heroes?

Benny: It is. Sei's mom was the super hero, Vermillion Bird. She is really well-known in China. Sei's dad fell in love with her mom and gave up being a triad member for her. He was so powerful a third of the organization left with him. So, good luck with your father- in-law…. Ahahahah.

Zen: I hate the both of you.

They begin to laugh at my misfortune. Note to self: stay away from Sei after I finish teaching her Zen. It might get more complicated. After shooting the shit with Benny, I put on my uniform, a white-collar shirt, blue tie, red blazer and khaki pants. When I come out, Benny and Decklyn have put on matching uniforms and we head out. The first half of the day is regular academic classes like math, English and science. But after lunch, we start the super hero classes like the anti-terrorist class, the study of alien life, outdoor survival, computer hacking and other type of super hero stuff. The three of us head our separate ways to our classes. The first class on my schedule is history. I walk in and look who's there? It's Sei sitting in the back. But this time, she has a bow instead of a barrette in her hair with a panda on it. The only seat open is the one next to her. I can't escape this girl. You see, the whole class stays together throughout the day for the entire year. The teacher just changes each period. My home room teacher is Mr. Coulson also known as Phil Coulson, Agent of shield. He's been an agent, a director and writer. His book is titled "Phil Coulson, Agent of Shield". He is the history and tactical leadership instructor.

Mr. Coulson: Okay, today, class we have a new student. Why don't you stand up Zen? This is Zen Shade. He just transferred here from New York. Mr. Shade, why don't you say something about yourself?

Zen: I stand up. I guess I got to give the new kid speech. "I am Zen shade; my mom was an assassin; now, she is a top chef in a hotel; and I like money.

Sei: Hey, your mom was an assassin? What's her alias? My Dad knows a lot of assassins.

Clara: You would ask that Sei. You're a gangster's daughter after all.

I look up and see a girl with long brown hair and green eyes. She has pale white skin. I guess, her grandfather was the Avenger Clint Barton, also known as Hawkeye.

Sei: Shut up Barton. Just because grandpa is Hawkeye does not make you hot shit.

Clara: Still makes me better than you.

Mr. Coulson: Girls, that is enough. Do I have to send you both to detention?

Sei and Clara: No sir.

After My introduction, we begin class. We go through the history. It is a little different than my former world history class. Today, we talk about World War II and how Captain America led the Howling Commandos against the Germens and Hydra. After that, we go to math then science. I get partnered with Sei because she is my desk mate. During science, she adds to much of one chemical and almost causes an explosion. Clara laughs at us. Sei uses qui to ruin Clara and her partner's experiment. Those two hate each other. After we finish science lab, it's time for lunch. I sit with Sei, Decklyn and Benny. I'm eating when a man with blonde hair and blue eyes approaches me.

???: You Shade?

Zen: Yeah.

???: I believe you owe my big sister an apology.

Zen: Big sister?

??? I am Leo Clark. My sister is Leah Clark.

Zen: HOW THE HELL ARE YOU TWO RELATED? Wait, did you say big sister? what grade are you in?

Benny: Leo is in our class. He is freshmen.

Zen: You're lying. He has a beard; this guy is a grown-ass man.

Sei: His sister looks like she's 10 and she's 17.

Decklyn: The Clark family's genes are weird.

Leo: So, are you going to apologize or not?

Zen: No. It was your sister who attacked me. I have three policies; borrow money…but never lend money, always be compensated for your time, and never apologize when you're in the right.

Sei: You're a little money grubber aren't you?

Zen: And you're not…are you rich?

Sei: Yes.

Zen: You don't know the pain of being poor. So, you have no room to judge.

Leo: If you really aren't going to apologize, then I challenge you to a duel in the Danger Room. If I win, you have to apologize to my sister.

Zen: Since you are going to take up my time, I will expect for there to be compensation. So, when do you want this duel to go down?

Leo: Be there at 3 o'clock after school; don't be late to your beat-down.

Sei: Is money all you care about?

Zen: No. But, it is one of my top priorities.

Sei just shakes her head. What, you're rich. You don't know my pain. You know nothing about living in poverty. I think those barrettes you've been wearing are made of diamonds.

Decklyn; Benny, let's start a pool.

Benny: You read my mind.

Zen: You're betting?

Benny and Decklyn: Yeah!

Benny: All students bet on duels. It's one of the few forms of entertainment you can get on the island. I remember the last duel; I made a killing.

Zen: Oh, one more thing.

Benny: What?

Zen: What's is this duel Benny,......Decklyn,…...Sei?

Sei: YOU MORON! YOU ACCEPTED IT WITHOUT KNOWING WHAT IT WAS IN THE FIRST PLACE!

Benny: He is screwed.

Decklyn: Yep.
