Neko.

Chapter 3: Jinx.

"While on my way to school, let me give you a short tour." This is Neko City. It's a nice place if you like cities. I was born and raised here for half of my life.

While there are other places that I wish that we could have lived in, this place isn't that bad. It's not as bad as "Gotham City" bad, where Batman lives in the comics.

If I had to compare it to any of the cities from the "DC Comics." It would be kind of like Central City where a walking McDonald's sign lives. But anywho.

Most of the time I usually take my skateboard to get me to school. And when I miss breakfast, I stop here At the Cafe Bean. It's owned by Ashen Price. The son of our city's mayor.

I usually stop here to grab breakfast when I have to be on the go. But at least I get a chance to talk to the only two guys who I like to talk to in this town.

Welcome to The Cafe. How can I help you? Hey, Luke. Oh, hey Willow. This guy is Luke O'Darly. He's half Irish and half Caucasian. He's kind of like a stronger man but with a heart of gold.

I mean he is strong. But he's not tall like the ones that you see in the circuses. But the big thing that we have in common is that we're both redheads.

Only mine is red, red. His is more orange. But he is a good guy. What brings you in? I'm running late and it's the first day at school. So I had to skip breakfast.

I see. We'll get you your usual. And just then entering the places shouting. Break, yourself, fool!

(Luke) Well, look who finally had decided to show up. Chris, why are you late? Late? Yes. Late? Man, I am right on time. Actually, Chris. I said to him while pointing to the clock.

You are early. Like before you need to be here. See that? That is called looking out for a brother. And I'm your brother Luke. "And you know this man."

Just don't forget to clock in. Yeah, yeah. Hey, thanks for that Willow. Anytime Chris. This brother from another mother is Chris. He is the second person that I like to talk to.

Both he and Luke have known each other since they were in elementary school and I had met them when I had gone to middle school.

Now the best way for me to describe Christ. He is a mix of two of Chris Tucker's two famous characters. James Carder from rush hour. Mainly the talking part.

He likes to talk. Manly talk big and will have no problem to box someone if they try to mess with him. And Like smokey. Well, Luke tells me that he smokes that stuff.

But he had told me that he had never run down the street in his underwear. But he ran down the street while Luke was chasing him after he gave him a buzz cut for a laugh.

But either way, it goes. He is a good friend. So are you out for a run? On my way to school. First day back you know.

Well, Like and I will be starting tomorrow so maybe we'll see you then. I hope so. Here you go, Willow. Thanks, Luke. I'll see you guys later. Later. Hey, let us know if someone messes with you. I'll send them your way. Thanks, Chris.

I had waves bye and I had for a school and just in time. I wasn't late but the first days are always crazy. Manly trying to find out where your classes are. It was sure a good thing that I had printed out my schedule last night.

I had the same locker but just different teachers. And my homeroom teacher was Ms. Felder. I was just about to take my seat when all of a sudden.

I had fallen on the floor because someone had pulled my seat out from under me. Oops. That is some bad luck. And here is another. I had mumbled to myself.
