Class E

The morning of Izzy's 'new' school day, she got up early putting on her orange uniform. It was a white shirt, with a blazer and a skirt that made her feel very exposed.

" Some pants would be great," she said pulling the skirt down.

" Oh stop complaining," Theonymphi said, he found this whole process to be tedious and to Izzy, he resembled a lazy cat.

She looked at the schedule and sighed, " System I don't suppose you can help me find my class?"

Izzy had no hope that someone would show her around.

Although Dem had given her a brief introduction, she got the feeling that Dem was just doing it to get it done.

She had no actual intention of helping Izzy and sometimes Izzy felt the woman's eyes glaze over her in a judgemental manner.

[ Yes. The system has marked the academy as a discovered location and has mapped out the school layout].

Izzy grabbed her phone and kissed it.

" System, did I mention you are the best".

[....Indeed]

Izzy laughed at the mechanical reply and walked out of her room. She had nothing but her phone and Theonymphi lying invisibly on her head.

' You should really wash your hair' he said and Izzy ignored him.

She walked up the hall that looked unkept and poorly maintained as the rest of the dorms. The walls had an off colour white with what looked like coffee stains splattered on it.

Izzy walked through the door separating her hall and the rest of the dorms. Her appearance caused all the girl walking to their classes to look at her.

A pretty girl accompanied by another girl said: " Who is she?"

' Maybe I should say hi' Izzy considered that it would be a great idea to make friends in the academy.

Since she was a naturally friendly person Izzy approached the girls who whispered to each other.

" Hi, I'm Izzy," she said with a smile.

The girls both in green uniforms gave her a sidelong glance and then laughed.

" Wow, Izzy was it."

Already from that response, Izzy could feel a budding cliche' waiting to happen. A faint headache began to form in her mind as she considered maybe she should've just gone straight to class.

" You're a mere orange ranked student. Why are you talking to us?" The two girls folded their arms in unison and Izzy's eyes almost rolled back into her head.

She put on a fake smiled and said: " Well Ashley and Britney" she nodded in each girl's direction, "it was nice talking to you. Bye".

The two girls frowned at being called Ashley and Britney.

Izzy walked away and heard them say " That's not our names!".

Izzy waved " Yeah, I suddenly don't care" and walked off.

' Wow somebody's in a bad mood' Theonymphi said slightly entertained.

Izzy just followed the system's direction and found herself standing in front of a door with a giant red symbol on it.

" What does this mean?"

" It means what the **** are you doing here?"

The words the person spoke automatically translated as curse words in Izzy's mind. She turned around to see a young man looking down at her. He had a very apathetic face with sleek yellow- hair and sharp eyes.

He had the typical delinquent feel to him and Izzy had met her second cliche' for the day.

Not up for dealing with the rude boy Izzy turned around opened the door and walked in. The boy stood still for a moment and then walked in after her.

" Hey I was talking to you," he said.

The classroom had a total of six desks and chairs, it looked odd in the open space and Izzy noticed how unkept the room looked. It didn't seem fitting for such a prestigious academy to look beautiful on the outside but so trashy on the inside.

There were four people in the class all sitting separate from one another. They wore orange uniforms and Izzy felt a sense of estrangement in the air.

A boy with large eyes and a skinny body looked up at Izzy then at the boy behind her. He instantly looked down attempting not to make eye contact.

" So this is the new person!" , a pink haired girl jumped out of her seat and ran to Izzy clasping their hands together.

Izzy could not help but looked into the girl's face and accept that she was undeniably cute.

" Hello, my name is Weigela Ibot".

Weigela's eyes were a vibrant green that Izzy stared at and then coughed. The girl had been the first friendly person to approach her and Izzy was very pleased.

" I'm Izzy," she said, " It's nice to meet you Weigela".

" Hehe" Weigela laughed excitedly " Everyone, we finally have another girl. Yay, I'm not alone anymore."

The only other students besides Izzy and Weigela were all male. Izzy looked at Weigela thinking she must have had it hard. Since all the guys seemed very unfriendly.

They looked up at Izzy and then the rude guy from before pushed Weigela away by her forehead.

Izzy frowned at his actions.

" That's rude," she said.

The entire class went silent and Weigela quickly grabbed Izzy's arm.

" Ah haha don't worry Izzy Ummm...Vicar was just playing". Izzy could feel Weigela tug at her arm as if to hint that she should not provoke this Vicar guy.

" Hey Ibot, move".

Weigela looked at Izzy with pity and everyone looked away. Izzy could kind of get a sense that there was a hierarchy in this small class and she, was now facing the ' Alpha'.

" I asked you what are you doing here?"

His belligerent tone made Izzy feel intimidated and irked. She had no idea what she had done to warrant such behaviour.

" In case you're blind" she gestured to her uniform " I'm part of this class so it would seem".

Vicar glared at her " No, you're not. So get out!"

" Vicar please"... Weigela's tiny voice pleaded.

He disregarded her plea and stared Izzy down.
