Amenza

Chapter 27

  Soon enough, Monday rolls around.

   Amenza is, surprisingly, the last one awake. He gets dressed in his uniform, and Pers lands on his shoulder. "How do I look?" He asks his bird. 'You look amazing, Master Amenza. Much better than the uniform you were wearing when I met you.'

   He teleports to the front of the school, and there are already people there. He walks up to the people giving them out, the Royal Aristocrats. "Ah, Amenza!" Lewilas greets him. "Didn't they have teachers doing this last year?" He asks. "Yeah, but this year they want us doing it so that the first years get familiar with our faces."

   Lew looks through the papers before handing a paper to his friend. "Here you go." Amenza takes his paper and is about to walk away when Collin stops him. "First, companions aren't allowed at GSMG." The redhead sighs in response and looks at Pers. The bird glows and transforms into a Robin. It flies into a nearby tree. "Did it just..." Collin sighs. "You suck. Second of all, let's look at each other's schedules."

   The five get into a cluster and look at their schedules. "It seems we all have a class together." Ruenmi notices. "Alright!" Staciap yells, happily. Amenza chuckles as he walks away. 'Pers. Tell me if King Cas comes by.' The bird chirps in confirmation.

   Amenza sits with the Royal Aristocrats. "Should you be here?" Collin asks. "Why shouldn't I be? I'm the strongest one in the school." Amenza casually comments. "You are not," Staciap says, handing a student their schedule. "Wanna test that theory?"

   "What do you mean?" Ruenmi queries. "I can summon a machine that measures how strong you can punch. Collin, I bet ten gold pieces that I can beat you." Some students around get intrigued. "Yeah sure. Know what, if you can beat me, I'll give you twenty gold pieces. If you can't, then you cough up ten." They shake hands.

   Amenza makes a machine appear, with a red bob. There's a screen that says zero. "See that zero? It'll change when you punch it." Amenza points out. Collin gets in front of it, and his arm starts glowing. He winds up his arm and strikes it. The number skyrockets to a solid 222,567,946.

   "Pretty good." Collin steps back, and his arm stops glowing. Amenza steps up to bat. His eyes and arms glow. He doesn't even wind up, he just punches. The number skyrockets to 713,572,849.

   Collin just stands there in shock. "How did you?" Amenza makes the machine disappear, then sits back down. "Awesome!" The Royal Aristocrats all high-five him. as Collin gets over it surprisingly quickly and gets into his money pouch. "Stop."

   Collin sees Amenza standing up. The redhead gives him ten coins. "Why are you doing this?" Collin asks. "I don't want you to act like a little piss-baby." He sits back down.

   Soon, Alexandria, Beau, Jason, and Elise come up. "Their names are Jason, Beau, Elise, and Alexandria. They're the only ones with their names."

   The four get their schedule and walk to Amenza. "I didn't notice it before, but this place is massive," Beau informs him. "Yeah, it's giant. Go to the year one area over there." Amenza points. Everyone but Elise goes. Beau comes back and crouches in front of her. He gives her a piggyback there. 

   "You know those guys?" Staciap asks. "Huh? Yeah. They're friends from a little while away." They keep handing out schedules. Soon, the Aumna sisters come up. Ancat still looks the same, but Poinya's hair is short, with pink streaks. "Hey guys, is that Amenza?" 

   Lew and Amenza are playing blackjack when they look up at the duo. "Good to see you two." Amenza then shows his cards. "Blackjack, again?!" Lew picks him up by his collar and starts shaking him. "HOW ARE YOU CHEATING?!" Someone clears their throat. They turn and see Ophelia.

   Her hair is cut shorter than last time, at shoulder length, and she's standing there awkwardly. Her elf ears poke out. Amenza falls back. 'Cuteness Overload!' Lew picks him back up. "DON'T GO FAINTING ON ME! Hello princess, it's nice to see you. If you'll excuse me, these three will get your schedule. NOW HOW DID YOU CHEAT?!" He starts shaking the redhead again.

   Collin looks at Amenza as Lew shakes him. His hair starts bobbing. "Amenza.. why do you have some blonde hair?" Lew looks at Collin. "What do you mean?" Collin lifts the red head's hair and exposes some blonde hair. "Holy crap, when did this get here?" Staciap wonders.

   Ruenmi sighs. "You look good with your hair shorter. Here's your schedule." Ophelia giggles, and takes her schedule. Ruenmi turns and watches as the three start to compare Staciap's hair to Amenza's. "Excuse me, may I please get a schedule?"

   After about an hour, all of the schedules are gone, and they just sit there, relaxing. "Which of you guys are the hottest? I'd have to say, Lew." Staciap answers the strange question. "Oh yeah, sure," Collin says, not buying it. "Amenza has a good facial structure, but the scars just aren't it. And Collin is just too pretty."  Soon, Helgardner comes up to them. "I see you few are all having fun. Come with me, you all." 

   The group follows her, as she goes up to the four from the other dimension. "You four, come." They join the group. 'I have a bad feeling about this. Pers, go to the tree next to Waywrighth's window.'

   Soon, they get to Waywrighth's office. "Royal Aristocrats, and Amenza. I want you to meet Jason, Alexandria, Beau, and Elise. They are from a different dimension." The Royal Aristocrats gasp and Waaywrighth hits Amenza's head. 'Oh right.' He gasps as well, but he does it much more dramatically. "How did you guys get here?" Collin asks.  "A giant portal. It was green and swirly. Monsters were guarding it too!" Alexandria tells them. She then explains in vivid detail how she cut them open and skinned them for leather that they had to leave behind.

   "Alrighty then," Waywrighth says, mortified. "I want one of you guys to talk about it on stage. By the way, I'm adding a special position for Amenza on the Royal Aristocrats; Jack." He shrugs. "Alright. Is it a play on the phrase 'Jack of all traits'?" He queries. "Correct. Know what? Amenza, I want you to tell the crowd about them. Is that OK Collin?"

   Collin shrugs. "Sure. I was going to make him do it anyway. I know he hates speaking in public." He snickers. "Can I--" He's cut off by Waywrighth. "No mask." Amenza scoffs. "Alright everyone, to the stage!" She leads them to the stage.

   After the school song plays, Waywrighth gets onto the stage. "Hello, I am Headmaster Waywrighth. Before I speak, I have one of our Royal Aristocrats here to speak to you all."

   The crowd claps, as the lights are all turned off, and a spotlight shines on Amenza. "Hello, kiddies. I'm Amenza Windsor."
