I sigh, hiking my book bag higher up on my bag. Uncomfortable piece of shit. I look over at Sub, who was messing around with some random kid's lockers and scaring the hell out of janitors.
I had gotten into the school early; due to recent events I've needed time to think.
I lean my head against the wall of lockers, finally turning around and putting in the code.
7-0-0-4-2-1
The locker pops open, and I root through it absentmindedly as I dropped off my stuff and picked up my math stuff. After double checking everything, I close the locker and slide my headphones up over my ears.
Sub sits next to me, putting his ghostly ear next to my headphone so he could hear. I smile, putting my hand through his knee and sending energy into him; making him physical enough to properly hear the music, but still invisible to the normal human eye.
More kids were starting to arrive, and I boredly look around to see who all had arrived.
Bajan and Jerome had both been here when I arrived, Jason and Sky were walking through the doors now. It looked like Seto and Ian were right behind them.
Everyone's here, eh? I chuckle, shaking my head as I think back to the news this morning.
HOTEL BURNS DOWN. MEANWHILE, POLICE INVESTIGATES MASS MURDER AT LOCAL BEACH
How funny; were there truly more monstrous people out there than me? Sometimes I forgot that; while I was murderous, I wasn't crazy.
I don't think I really had it in me to kill a group of people that big.
Sub taps my leg, shooting me a small glare. With a glowing finger, he writes out a message in the air.
Did you already forget how you killed me?
I smile, shaking my head. Sub leans his head on my shoulder, and I smile.
"No buddy, I wouldn't forget that anytime soon."
"Who're you talking to?"
I look up, seeing a familiar orange visor. Jason.
"No one; just talking to myself. Didn't get much sleep last night." I reply nonchantly, standing up and leaning back against the lockers once again.
"Yeah, I know. The hotel and beach, right?" he asks, and I nod.
"I lived right across the street from the hotel; the beach was about a 2o minute walk away."
"Damn dude; do you need to stay at one of our places for a while?" Jason asks, true sincerity in his voice. It surprised me, I haven't had someone caring about me, besides Sub, since... since she died.
"Nah, I'm good. The fire department had the entire block evacuate, so I got to have some fun last night." Jason laughs, and I could tell he had a raised eyebrow under his helmet.
"How many?" he asks.
"What?"
"How many hookers did you buy?" any attempt at keeping a straight face dissipated the second he completed his sentence; making nearly everybody (including Seto) look over at us.
"Dude, no. I ran into an old friend and we just hanged out." I reply, and Jason chuckles.
"Alright man, whatever you say."

Powers (Team Crafted)
FanficIt’s been years after WW6, and humanity has evolved again after 100 billion years. They now had super powers. Too bad they were actually pretty crappy powers; the ability to eat anything, the ability to go unnoticed, the ability to turn ugly. Honest...
