Psycho's game (As the Gods will)

"I doubt that anyone would dare to go after you..."

Both Reika and Amaya arrive at school, wondering what the other one is doing right now.

Two girls come running down the hallway, 'Omg, we missed you so much, next time you're coming with us to the beachhouse, no excuses.' 'Hey! Don't command her like that! But we'd really love it if you happen to be free next holiday, and give us a call sometimes.' 'Yoshikawa, Natsumi, totally missed you. It's always so quiet when the two of you aren't around.' The girls both grab an arm and take Reika to their classroom.

'Hello there, are you looking for something?' 'Not really, I know where to be, I just don't need to be there for the next fifteen minutes.' 'You're new here, right? I mean, I haven't seen you here before, and you certainly don't seem like a first-grader. What are you, third class?' 'Completely wrong, I'm in the second.' 'And what brings you to this school, mysterious second-grader?' Amaya looks at his watch, waiting for this conversation to end. 'I have no reason to tell that to a girl I've just met, nothing personal.' 'I see, you think I'm flirting with you, but I can assure you that's not the case. I already have a girlfriend, so no flirting here...' 'I didn't think you were flirting, I just don't feel like sharing personal stuff with strangers.' 'That's understandable... Well! If you need anything, just shout.' 'What is your name?' 'Uhmm, it's Tamura.' 'And do you have a first name?' 'Y-yori..' 'Tamura Yori. I'll remember that name.'
He walks away to find his classroom, seeing it almost half-full, the teacher sitting at his desk. 'Hello sir, I'm new in this class, and I was wondering where my seat is.' 'Ah, you must be Amaya Takeru. You can sit over there by the window, next to Miura.' The boy waves at him, and Amaya sits down on the empty seat. 'Hello, I am Koda Miura, nice to meet you.' 'Amaya Takeru. Tell me, how strict are the teachers here if someone broke the rules?' 'What? What kind of rules do you plan on breaking?' 'Not really planning, I'm just thinking ahead in case anything were to happen. Things like that always happen.' 'Well, if you destroy school property, you'd have to clean, the number of days depends on what you destroyed. That would mean pick up trash and stuff. But if you were to cheat on a big test or do any sexual activity, like kissing or more, it could lead to suspension.' 'And what are the concequences of beating up other students? You didn't mention thatone...' 'Not a lot of punishment when that happens, as long as there are no angry parents complaining with the school board.' 'So when other kids come after me, all I need to do is ask my parents to call, and the kids could be suspended?' 'Yeah, but I doubt that anyone would dare to go after you...' The bell rings, all of the other students have taken their seats, and Amaya is asked to stand in front of the class. 'Goodmorning everyone,' 'goodmorning sir!', all of the kids respond at the same time. 'A new year of school offers so many opportunities, a chance to make new friends, learn a new skill, maybe even fall in love for the first time. Unfortunately, by going a year up, we have had to leave people behind. All of our hope goes out to Hasegawa and Aoki, let's pray that they will make it next year. But let's not be sad, there is also good news, because since the leave of the students I just mentioned, there was a big hole left in our classroom and our hearts. To fill one hole, and hopefully the other one in the near future, we have a new student. Amaya, if you would introduce yourself to the class.' 'Uhm, okay. Where do I start? My name is Amaya Takeru, and I like to run, and I sometimes fight other people. That is what I do in my free time...' 'Does anyone have a question for Amaya?' A boy with glasses raises his hand, 'You fight other people, but more like karate or boxing?' 'Well, it's not specifically a fighting style. More like a mix of several styles.' 'Ohh, so you do MMA?' A girl behind the boy with glasses taps on his shoulder, 'what is MMA exactly?' 'Mixed Martial Arts, a combination of different fighting techniques, for the real badasses, there are actual competitions and stuff.' 'Ohhh, I understand. I do have a question for Amaya-san, please answer honestly. Do you have a girlfriend?' Some boys and girls whisper, others wait in curiosity. 'Yes, I do, but not exactly. Wait, I wasn't allowed to say that...' The teacher claps his hands a couple times to get the attention back, 'Okay, enough questioning for today, you can continue at lunch. You can go back to your seat, Amaya. Okay, everyone open your history book on page five.'
