Karma

Encounter

Dr. Cory let us go for the day.

I wanted to sleep. There was so much that happened in the last few hours that I started getting dizzy. A dude's gotta get some beauty sleep too okay?

But nooooooo, James and Gary forced me to leave the academy building for some "fresh air".
I didn't even realize I was that tired until I stepped out of the building and yawned for a good 10 seconds straight.

They slapped my face to get me to not fall asleep.
The disrespect. What did I do to deserve this kind of treatment?

"Can I just go back? I think I might collapse on the street." I murmured.
They glared at me.

"No. Let's have some fun. You'd be awake by then."
I sighed.
Even though they were older than me, they act like spoiled little brats.

I sighed again for the 500th time, and bent my head towards the sky.
The sun was still up, although I could tell it was starting to set.
There was an ombre of colors in the horizon—a mixture of pink, violet, and gold.

Under the light, Gary's and Jame's skin seemed to glow a light shade of pink.
I followed them in the street, all the while infatuated by the clouds.

They were talking about random things, and I snapped out my zone to join in on the conversation.

"Bruhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh." James looked at Gary in disbelief. His mouth formed an 'O' shape.

What were they talking about?

"No, seriously. I speak a bit French." Gary placed a thumbs up in the air.

I arched an eyebrow and James snickered. "I don't believe you."

Gary puffed up his chest. "IS THAT CAUSE I'M ASIAN?"

James puffed his chest up too.
"YEAH. SO WHAT? WANNA COME AT ME? I'M AT RANK 8 NOW YOU MOTHERFAAAACKAA."

Gary walked towards him and they engaged in a feminine pushing contest.
I stood there watching with a look of boredom and rolling my eyes.
This isn't the first time.

"WHO DO YOU THINK YOU IS? MY RANK IS AT A SOLID 7." Gary continued, exclaiming proudly. "RESPECT YOUR ELDERS."

Damn...they're childish but I can't believe they improved their stats in such little time.
Already rank 7 and 8? They're right next to each other...

Tck tck

Why does that sound familiar...? I heard wheels turning and my face grew pale.

"Oh hell naw." I mumbled, standing right in between the two immature kids and pushing them away.

Sure enough, the sound of wheels I heard was Gary's mechanic ability.
If I didn't stop them, Gary might've blown Jame's head off and James might've impaled Gary.

Either way they're fucked.
They stopped fighting immediately because what could they do? They can't go against me.

There was an awkward silence for 10 seconds, until Gary spoke again.
"Hey do you like celery?"

James frowned.
"EW CELERY? ARE YOU CRAZY?"

I facepalmed.
