The Chronicles of Nathaniel Jacobson

update #2

Chapter Three: Part Two

Walking down the street, slowly getting dry and thinking to myself.....i looked down the road, then walked across the street towards the Quickie-Mart. as i walked in, the bell above the door rang, i looked around while the man behind the counter said "welcome young man, here to by snacks before going to school?". Im not even sure if i acknowledged i was listening to him. I walked down the racks, eyeing different things, pringles, skittles, jack links: beef jerky, grape soda. looking ahead at the frozen section, i walked up and down, i opened the door and grabbed a six pack of bud light. And i walked back up to the counter, and put it up there so he could ring it up. he looked at me, then at the beer, he looked again over his glasses and said. "son, are you old enough to buy this?"...Ah shit...i thought. I keep forgetting that i may be four-thosand years old, but by humans standards I look to be about fourteen, maybe fifteen. I age one-four-hundreth the time of humans....so i said..."sorry sir, i must have grabbed the wrong thing, i will just go on to school now". the sarcasm evident in my voice im sure. he looked on as i walked out the door with another ring of the bell. I began walking again, in no evident direction this time, still wrapped in my thoughts, all of the sudden i bumped into something...hard. It happend to be someone. it was a lady, whom i knocked to the ground, i helped her up and she said thank you. Then actually getting a good look at me she said "young man shouldnt you be in school?" She began asking me questions like where were my parents were, what school i attended, why i wasnt there and other things. i quickly and effortlessly lied. coming up with something the moment she asked each question. Before i knew it, we had walked to the front doors of a social services building,  "maam, i believe your mistaken, i have parents." I said. "o yes i know, this is just to get you registered for school, it will only take a few moments" she said. seeing no way out of this, i reluctantly entered behind her. another interrogation ensued upon entering. A few "short" hours later i left with a note saying where i had to report the following morning.

Chapter Four: Part One

Sitting in my chair, staring at the note in my hand. This is ridiculous, i Nathaniel Jacobson, slayer of monsters, defender of night has to go to highschool? What kind of sick joke was this? i had so many more things i could do with my time then sit inside a stupid mortal, learning facility, as if they could teach someone who has seen the rise of empires anything. But as of right now i couldnt think of a way out of this situation, i might learn something about the where abouts of the facility where the Frenibes Wolinivus were created. who am i kidding, this is going to be a disaster....

Waking up promptly at five o'clock the following morning, i got up and got dressed, walking into my kitchen, i grabbed a beer out of the fridge, popped the cap, and raised it in mock salute and said "heres to you clerk at Quickie-Mart"....Later i strapped my knife to my leg and slung a bag full of bombs and paper over my shoulder, stuck a pen in my back pocket and with one last look at my coat i left.

Walking up the hill, seeing the first glimps of the hell hole, brown and white exterior, flag pole standing to the right and shrubs and trees with white blossoms dotted the sides of the building; above on the top of the entrance read "East Harcen High School"...O boy...well here we go. And i walked into the front doors...

The first thing i noticed was in the middle of the room was a big bronze statue of a wolf like creature on its hind legs, engarbed in football gear sneering at me, baring its fangs. Looked like a damn were-wolf, o the dark humor. looking around some more i saw a stair case going around either side of the statue and to the left of the stair case ,on the left were the beginnings of lockers and a black sign with various arrows saying: band room, sophomore hall, and to the right of the staircase on the right it also had a black sign and lockers but the sign this way said; right: front office, guidance office, and junior hall....The stair case on the right led to the senior hall and the cafeteria, the one on the left led to freshmen hall and the gymnasium....I walked towards the right, to the front office, that was where i was supposed to go after all, to get my schedule and a map of the school. I walked up to the door and opened it. The lady told me to be seated and that someone would be with me in a few minutes.....It only took a few minutes when a big burly man came to me "stand up son" he said. i did. "you must be Nathan Jacobs, the boy Ms. Anders told me would be starting at my school today". I saw the way his eyes lit up when he said her name. "I am Coach Matthews, im the principal here at East Harcen High, im also the head football coach and i teach weightlifting". I just nodded at him, silently thinking to myself, the prinicpal is the football coach? o joy. "your a freshmen, here is your schedule, you can walk around and find your classes before school starts, it doesnt start for another fourty-five minutes". i stood up to leave and he touched by shoulder, i turned and he said "and nathan, you should try out for football, tryouts begin tomorrow". i just nodded and left, closing the door behind me.

Chapter Four: Part Two

I sat in my home room, in the the only seat taken, a bell rang and kids started to file into the classroom, i looked over my schedule again it read as follows: Home room, room 118 Mr. Simon, First period, honors Global History with Mr. Harringtonin room 309, Second period Weightlifting with Coach Matthews in the Gym, Third period Probability and Statistics with Mrs. Gardner in portable 11. then lunch, Fourth period Anatomy, in the junior science lab with Dr. Hoffman, Last was Creative Writing with Ms. Perry in room 206. looked alright, nothing i couldnt handle, even though i was self educated, i know quite a bit, being alive for four thousand years and all. I watched as various kinds of people filed into the room. The nerds, the preps, the punks, the skaters, the cheerleaders, the jocks, and a normal person here and there, but there seemed to be a class for pretty much everyone, no one was out, everybody was labeled. I had a feeling i would soon be no different....I sunk in my chair at the thought.

After what seemed like hours, the bell signaling the end of home room sounded. This is gonna be the longest day of my immortal life... When everyone had left, me being in the back of the classroom so that i could see everyone, i gathered my things and hurriedly left, i stood in the door of the classroom as i watched the humans scurrying about going to class...i was watching nothing in particular when out of the coner of my eye i saw the back of jacket, which was school colors, and had the name "wolves" on the back. It was on an exceptionally large student, who seemed to be holding another student againsnt a locker, the kid wasnt very small but compared to the other one, he was dwarphed in proportion. with out hesitation i approached the scene....Upon closing in on the situation, i started to make out what was being said, "I told you fucker, if you ever looked at her again i would end you. didn't I!?" "Y..yes..Yo..you did". "then whats the problem faggot?". "I cant help it, she sits right in front of me in home room! please just dont hurt me".....i came up beside the two, "dont worry, he isnt gonna hurt you, he was just leaving." he looked at me and said "get lost bitch". once he realized i wasnt going anywhere he turned back to the other boy. "who is this? your boyfriend?" and without warning a punch crushed the side of his face. he dropped the boy as he staggered to the left. "your fuckin dead!" he yelled at me through a busted face. as an unknown force slammed into my back and knocked me to the floor....hard. on the moment of impact i turned, kicked off of a locker and sent my knee into the nose of the unknown assaliant. the first boy came at me then. stupid mortal. with surprising speed he swung massive fists towards my face. he obviously had no training but the raw power he possesed was astonishing, he couldnt be fully human i thought as his fist slammed into a locker, denting the shit outta it. he kept coming after me as more and more people started crowding around yelling and pumping fist, when two more boys entered the fight, also wearing the same jacket as the first. i was surrounded, no matter, they are just humans. one swung wide towards my face, i smirked as i jutted my fingers into the veins of his four arm, stopping the blood flow. grabbed the outside of his elbow and pulled roughly bringing him closer, sending my other fist into the middle of his chest, with the sound of bones crunching. he collapsed. the other one was just as stupid, he actually tried kicking my head, i ducked and grabbed the heel of his other foot and brought it upright, tripping him when i stood back up. on his back trying to get his barings back, i looked back at him and quickly kicked him in the side of the head, knocking him out. before i could look back and the first guy, something slammed into my head, everything going black, i staggered and fell to my knees, coughed up blood and he was on me, hammering on the back of my head and bringing knees into my ribs, feeling them crack, i winced and turned in the other direction facing him from the ground. i brought my foot up and kicked his mouth. he staggered back as i stood. i rubbed my head, and he charged into me, tackling me into a wall of lockers, i yelled at him and started elbowing the back of his head and neck, he grabbed the inside of both of my thighs, lifted compelety up and slammed into the locker once again then the ground, once,twice, three times. he let go off me, staring down, he spit on my face and smirked, turning and raising his arms in triumph........"im not done yet.....bitch" i smiled through the blood covered face. he reached down to swing at my face again, my smile faded as i grabbed the back of his head with both hands and drove the both of my feet into his chest and used his momentum to throw him over me into the dented wall of lockers. i turned and mounted him, punching every part of him i could reach, feeling his jaw, cheek bone and nose, the bone and cartilige caving under the impact of my fists. blood spattering even more across my face, when in the background i heard people screaming "stop...your gonna kill him...and woah!" when someone grabbed me from behind and brought me off of him. letting them take me, i know i would have killed him otherwise...i walked, reached down and grabbed my bag, towards the principal's office.
