Storm Clouds

Robbie woke up before the alarm, something that he hadn't done in a long while. Laying on his bed, he stared at the ceiling. As he sat on his bed, he thought of how he was going to actually steal a file from Superion, all because some Mafia Archer told him to do it. Looking back at it, this made no sense. He was going to throw away his friendship with Superion, all because of a criminal.

Getting off the bed, Robbie picked up the metal square that Jason had left with him. Flipping it around, he tried to turn it on. The design was complex, unlike anything he had seen before. Probably it was made so only Jason could open it. Tossing it back on to the table, Robbie opened his window. This was a lot to think about. On one hand, he could find out the truth about his father, at the risk of it being false information. On the other hand, he could just snitch on Jason, or send him to the Airlock, with the chance that his family and friends could die. Inhaling deeply, Robbie took a whiff of the slightly polluted city air, wondering when his life would ever return to normal. Ever since his powers had properly manifested, he lost the chance of having a normal life. This could be his chance to just stop and finally be regular. Robbie shook his head, realizing that he couldn't stop now. He had to finish this. He had to find out what the file held.

As Robbie hopped off the school bus, slinging his bag over his back. Hurrying through the hallway he bobbed and wheeled avoiding the many people bustling in the hallway. Finally reaching the stairs, Robbie ran up, trying to get to class. Running to his locker, he opened it, putting his stuff inside. Suddenly, he heard Justin's voice yelling and his gang laughing wickedly. Closing his locker, Robbie walked towards the noise, seeing Justin bullying Ned and Geoffrey. Justin had Ned's glasses and he kept tossing it around, which resulted in Geoffrey trying to grab it back. Robbie grimaced. "Hey Justin! Quit picking on them. Why don't you find something better to do?" Justin looked at Robbie with pure hatred in his eyes. "Buzz off Malcolm! This doesn't concern you!" Robbie smirked. "What's wrong? Still mad about the basketball game?" Justin's face cracked into an evil grin. "Joke's on you Malcom. We actually won the basketball match!" Robbie looked over at Ned and Geoffrey, who both stared at the ground in shame. Robbie walked over to Justin, plucking the glasses from his hands. "That's only cuz I asked them to go easy on you." Justin seethed in rage. "C'mon guys. He ain't worth it."

As Justin and his gang walked off, Robbie turned to Ned, giving him his glasses. "Hey guys, you don't have to go through this, you know that, right?" Ned snorted. "As if we could do something about it. The teachers don't care, and we can't fight him ourselves." Robbie gritted his teeth. "Classic Justin. Beating up the weak and boasting about it. If he ever troubles you guys again, just call for me." Ned and Geoffrey both nodded, smiling. Pulling Ned into a bro hug, and then Geoffrey, Robbie left the two and hurried to class. Opening the door, he saw that he was early for class. Another thing he also realized, was that the class had been rearranged, and that his seat was no longer in the back. Now, it was infront Jessica and Jasper, seating him in the middle of the class. Hesitantly sitting down, he waved to Jasper and Jessica. Jessica and Jasper both waved back, with Jessica looking back at Robbie, mildly upset. Robbie mouthed a quick sorry before turning back around as the teacher entered the class carrying a file. "Hello class! We have a new student here with us. Please make him feel welcome." Robbie raised an eyebrow. He didn't have a good feeling about this. A wheelchair  rolled into the class. The boy in the wheelchair took off his dark glasses and scanned the room. But more importantly, this was not just some boy. It was Jason!

Robbie knew that he couldn't react rashly and blow his cover as Fortitude, but he wanted now more than ever to hit him so hard that he would've needed a wheelchair. Jason flashed a glance in his direction before breaking into a grin. He grimaced, immediately tensing up. He subconsciously gripped the table so hard that the metal underneath started to bend. Letting go off the bench, he quickly tried to calm down. Smiling, the teacher looked at Jason. "So, tell us you're name, where you're from, and some basic stuff like that. Jason smiled at the teacher before turning to the class. Talking in a French accent, Jason proceeded to tell the class how his name was Franklin and how he was from France and that his father died due to a work accident causing his mother to move there, to Emmersville. The whole class excluding Robbie felt sorry for him and began to offer to show him around. The teacher looked at 'Franklin' sympathetically putting a hand on his shoulder. To avoid crying, the teacher quickly scanned over the class before pointing at Robbie's old seat. "You can sit there." She said tearfully. 'Franklin' wiped his 'tears' and proceeded to roll over to Robbie's seat, but not before 'accidentally' running over Robbie's foot and immediately begun apologizing profusely in a rapid burst of French. Robbie had just about had enough. His eye twitched angrily, the viens in his head clearly visible. He was only seconds close from actually throwing Jason through the window when his teacher came over, helping 'Franklin' through the rows, while making a pointed comment about how 'they all needed to be kind and helpful to each other'. Robbie gritted his teeth so hard that he felt they were going to break. Now more than ever, he realized the need to finish the quest and be rid of Jason.
