*Sigh* "There really is no getting out of this is there..." "Ay atleast the boy's uniform looks good! The girl's uniforms are just so fugly!" Jett yells getting closer to the camera.

I was showcasing the uniform with Jett on facetime and it seems we both have strong feelings against the new dress code at this school.

Although Valorant is a prestigious and well known high school, most of society tend to stir away from the students here since the only students allowed to enroll are radiants.

Radiants. That what they call Jett and I. For all these years, it's only been the two of us. The only radiants who knew of eachother; but here, we won't need to hide.

"Do you think they allow these sneakers?" I ask, putting my leg on the table to show Jett.

"Gosh, I can just smell the foot fungus from here! But also I don't think they'll mind. I'm wearing mine too sooo."

"Yeah yeah, anyways I gotta get going, haven't even made breakfast yet!" I yell and immediately pressed the hang up button.

Grabbing my phone and bag, I rush to the kitchen for a quick bite. I put my bag down on the floor and take out some waffles from the freezer. While waiting for it to thaw, I turn on the TV.

"BREAKING NEWS: A protest has been causing traffic near *****, reason for the protest? To stop the new Valorant High School to be in the public's eye. Many believe radiants don't belong in society and many are treated like animals-"
I turn the TV off.
Of course, what a way to begin my morning.
I proceed to put Nutella and stuff my mouth. Sitting down while tying my shoes.

Time for school!

-------------------------------------------------------

"Dangg I realllyy hope that the protest has ended already! I cannot be dealing with this first thing in the morning!" Jett holds onto her backpack straps.

"Right! You couldn't believe just how bad it made my morning."
Walking in the nice breezy weather was always the best memory at school. Especially with Jett.

"Sooo any new goals for this year? Y'know, for getting into the new school?"

"Hmm.. I mean I was quite popular at our old school so why not just go in the same route? Become the most well known student in Valorant! That's my goal!"

"Oh.. that's... Do you not wanna improve your grades or something..?"

"Oh shut it fam, you legit got lower then me in chem so I don't know what you're on about."

"That's probably because you cheated!"
"As if!"

While we're busy bickering we didn't even notice the large crowd surrounding the entrance of the school, making it difficult for any of the students trying to enter.

"What the hell..!"
"Gosh, they really are desperate.. I wonder what the teachers are doing..."

We make our way into the crowd, trying our best to not get pulled or crushed. It was pushy and crowded so I somehow got a bit heated up.

"Ow! Something just burned me!" A random protestor exclaimed.
"Oh shit! AHAHHHAJA JETT RUN!"
"WHAT THE HELL!" Jett yells as she runs as fast as the wind

"AHAHAHAHAHH!!"
We sprint for the the school doors with an angry horde of people behind struggling to get past security. Jett trips and hits her forehead. Making the most goofy ass sound.

'boink!'
...
"What the hell was that."
"How the hell am I supposed to know."

We open the door, out of breath and sweaty; but our breath gets taken from both our throat and lungs when we see the lobby of the High School.

High ceiling with two collumn stairs in the middle. A glass chandelier, holding candles and giving a nice warm aroma. Pillars that look like they were stolen from a Greek site. And the most interesting sight? The rows and rows of radiants. Obviously from all around the world.

Some were hanging around the stairs and vending machines, while others were hanging out on the couches that were given. Huge grins can be seen on each and every one of them.
Jett and I look at eachother. We're so gonna be the most popular people here.

------------------------------------------------------

After finding out where our classes are located, we head our way (ps, we're in the same class). Somehow the campus is so gigantic there are elevators scattered around. Our class was on the 3rd floor. And god knows I'm not walking that much on the first day.

We open the door and am immediately hit with the variety of people. To students with black and brown hair to a pop of blue and purple. We could tell the cliques have already been established.

The "cool" and "popular" kids, and the loners who were in the back. Unfortunately for us, since we're late the only seats available were the back ones. I scan the room and find a free seat in the middle of the back.

I put my bag down and look to see who my seatmate is. A blue haired guy who has earphones in. Ballsy for the first day at such a school but what can I do.

"Hey bruv! What'cha listening to?"

"..Huh?" He says in the most **condescending** tone you could think of.
I point to my ears, signaling about his earphones. He groans and takes them out.

"It's a song called.." he takes out his phone. "One way, by Daichi"
"Ohhh, never heard it. What's the genre?"
"Why don't you leave me alone and figure it out yourself?"

"Dang my bad man."

How the hell am I supposed to befriend this guy!
