Going to eat

"Do you realise how out of place that question is?!" Ray asked, his eyes open wide, both from a mixture of shock and trying to forget the stuff he had seen. "You just fucking traumatised me with those images, and then ask us if we want to go out to eat food?! At least give me a little bit to forget some of those images!"

"Is that a yes or a no?" Aaron questioned, playing the fool. He wanted to see what would happen.

"No, not for the moment. I'll need a few hours before I feel like I could eat food with puking." Ray replied, as he began to get up, but while he was standing up, he put his hand to his mouth, as his cheeks ballooned outwards. He ran towards the bathroom built into the dorm, and locked the door. Aaron and Crystet then heard the sounds of Ray vomiting, which definitely wasn't a nice sound.

"We should probably leave, and let him just be. I wouldn't want to be here if he accidentally puked all over the room, should he decide to leave the bathroom." Crystet commented, as he got up, and walked to the door. Aaron jumped from the bed, as he stretched his arms out infront of him, looking at them, as they were coated in he grey substance, which he found quite interesting. It just coloured his skin differently, which meant that his fingers were still clawed, but hey, he could come up with an explanation for that should he need to.

Crystet opened the door and walked out, leaving the door open for Aaron, who walked out behind him, and closed the door. He didn't lock it because Ray was in there. The handle was at just above waist height for normal people, so Aaron would have to jump up slightly and outstretch his arm fully to open it, which would look hilarious to anyone who would be watching him at that time, which Crystet was. He snickered slightly, but stopped when he looked at Aaron's hands and feet. Both appeared to be clawed, which confused him.

"Hey, Aaron, would you mind explaining to me why your hands and feet have claws instead of fingers?" Crystet asked Aaron. "Is it really important right now, Crystet?" Aaron replied, trying to see if he didn't need to come up with an answer.

"Well, it's something I'm curious about. You don't want to reveal your face, or any part of your body in general, and then your hands and feet have claws. Almost like you are an alien and are pretending to be a human." Crystet questioned, tilting his head to the side, as he tried to find out what was going on with Aaron, but to no avail.

"Fine. If you must know. It's a little device that I had made which is made with a strong material, and is in the shape of claws, which give me a slight physical advantage over other people, so I can inflict piercing wounds with my body. Nothing to do with my abilities." Aaron said, making something up on the spot. He just hoped that it would throw Crystet off any form of trying to find out what he looked like.

"Well, if you say so. Although, I do have to say, it must be quite the silent machine, because I've never heard any metal noises from your body." Crystet replied, still skeptical about what Aaron was saying, but he had no way of getting other information about him, so he just dropped it.

"So, do you know any places where we could get some good food? I'm curious about what places you've been to." Aaron asked Crystet, as, since he was in the body of a child, he hadn't explored the city he lived in much.

"Well, there is a nice place down the road from the school, called Gustavo's Italian Pizzeria. We could go there for a bite to eat." Crystet suggested, as he and Aaron began walking down through the common room, which was still filled with people, but, luckily, they didn't notice Aaron and Crystet walk through the common room. They then realised the one problem. The gate outside of the school was closed.

"God dammit. The gate is closed." Crystet cursed. Aaron just snapped his fingers and they appeared outside. Crystet looked around him, and was simply confused as all hell.

"What the hell just happened?" He asked to nobody in particular. "I teleported us outside of the gate. What does it look like, Crystet?" Aaron replied, sighing. Crystet looked down at the robed child with a small amount of fear. That child could kill everyone in this school in under an hour, and that scared him. All he needed to do was teleport and stab over and over again.

"...right. Anyways, I'll lead the way to the pizzeria. Just don't do anything strange, alright?" Crystet replied, trying to make sure that nobody exploded while he was out and about, because who knew what that child could do. Well, Aaron knew, he just wasn't going to tell anyone about his abilities.

[You know, it really doesn't make any sense for you to go out and get food. Your body is completely self-sufficient, meaning that you don't need any food at all.]

'System, it's the novelty of it all. It's just for fun. Plus, I want to see what happens when I eat.' Aaron thought to his system, trying to give it a reason as to why he still felt the want to consume food.

[Well, I have no reason to stop you. Nothing bad will happen. The food will just be absorbed into atoms.]

"Sure, I won't do anything strange. Just lead the way, Crystet. I have no idea how to get around this town anyways. I only know a few places, such as the SLAVAL, and the Rangerwear shop. So, I will learn the map of this city, for future use." Aaron replied, giving his confirmation of him not doing anything.

And then a building exploded about fifty metres away from them.
