Another World's Saviour (discontinued)

Why?!?

Chapter 3

I was pinned to the desk, and my wrists were gripped tightly. He just continued to stare at me, breathing heavily. This was just too awkward. "You were rather rude earlier, Athena" Lecter sneered. Well, shit. Now that I think about it I was. And it then finally hit me: not only had I been unintentionally been rude, but to Hannibal Lecter. I was such an idiot. "Sorry, I really didn't mean to!" I apologised nervously. This reminded me of when I watched the movie, and he had bit of a woman's face and ate her tongue. Well, that thought made me feel a heck of a lot worse. "Fascinating. Why do your eyes change colour?" he inquired. "They change depending on my emotions" I replied, anxiety in my tone. "Also, if I may inquire, what are you? You do not have the ordinary scent of a human, and there is the fact of your changing eye colours."

"Well, that is both an astute observation, and a very personal question. Not to be rude, but I do not necessarily feel comfortable in telling you. Besides, I really need to be getting to class now." 

"Of course." He stated, and let go of me. I quickly ran to my bag, and ran out of the class, quickly saying goodbye on my way out. Well, not only did I have a run in with the Hannibal Lecter, but I am now late for Tech Design. Bleedin' marvelous.  I will have to work out how he got into this universe. After all, it was my job to govern travel between time and dimensions. I was not happy. Someone had clearly not followed the laws I had in place (laws I might add I only had to set due to many almost being destroyed due to carelessness). I ran through the eerily quiet corridors ( I was running at normal human speed, just in case someone noticed that something was off). I had then arrived. I burst in, hair in my face. I tried blowing the strands out, but it didn't work. 

"Sorry I'm late." I huffed. Everyone turned to me, utterly shocked. It was then that I noticed everyone had been put into groups. Great. The teacher was sat on a swivel chair in a darkened corner. No, you have got to be kidding me. Yet another, it seemed, had travelled. And not a very safe person at that. It was non other than Gabriel Grey, also known as, Sylar. When I find out who allowed them travel without convening me, they're due a serious ass-whoop-in. "It's quite alright. We have just begun our new project. It seems that there is no one else you can team up with, so you'll have to work with me" he stated evilly. His tone had sent shivers down my spine (now all I could think of was Queen). "Please, sit." He motioned to another swivel chair next to him. I obeyed, and sat down next to him. "So...What we doin' teach?"

"You need to fix this watch." He said. I looked around, and noticed that no one had even taken it apart yet. He handed me some glasses, and I swiftly thanked him. I put on the glasses, and grabbed the equipment that was already on his desk. I then started to take it apart. It didn't take me long to pick it apart. "Good. Now, what stopped it working?"

"The lever pivot needed re-adjusting, and the escape wheel pivot needed replacing" I answered matter-of-factly.  He raised his eyebrows in surprise, and I just shrugged my shoulders nonchalantly. I then put all the pieces back together, and the a ticking sound could be heard. I took a quick glance at him, and I saw that a smile was spread across his face. He looked like a maniac, his calm facade slipping slightly. He then became calm again. He abruptly stood up, surprising me. He walked to the middle of the class and asked sardonically, "Has anyone actually finished their work?" No one replied. I then noticed Reiji and Shu, who also hadn't finished it. Despite his tone, I could see multiple girls fawning over him, and I could hear whispers like: "He's hot when he's sassy.."

Frowning, I looked at him. He then beckoned me forward. I obediently came, reluctantly, looking at the ground in embarrassment. I stood beside him, as he admonished, "Athena has done it. You all could learn a thing or two from her instead of mocking her intelligence. After all, it's not like any of you could even take apart a watch." Well, I didn't know that I was already a topic to speak about, and apparently in a negative light. That was just great. A girl then raised her hand. She had pale blue eyes,and bleach blonde hair. The first two top buttons of her shirt was undone. I could tell she was trying to gain Sylar's attention, in a non-platonic way (I can read other people's emotions, and I can even devour them, much like how I can devour souls (due to both the demon and the edacem affectum(Latin for emotion eater) part of me).

I usually make it so that I don't know what people are feeling (and thinking) as not only do I feel like it's a breach of their privacy, but it also makes life so much more fun and unpredictable. But with her, her emotions were coming off in waves. She really had the hots for this guy, even more than the obsessive/stalker type. "Yes, Fifi." Wait, Fifi? As in Fifi and the bleedin' flower tops? I stifled a laugh. "You know, Mr Grey, I really don't think she deserves such praise. I mean, you guys all saw what happened in psychology, she's a complete weirdo." She said mockingly. Her voice was shrill, and incredibly irritating. Picture this: a really annoying teenage girl from a cheaply made American chick-flick. Yes, she was that girl. Sylar both looked enraged and curious. Suppressing his anger, he asked "What happened?" My head shot up, I looked towards the door in complete panic. Sylar noticed this, and raised an eyebrow, amused. Fifi, tilted her head sadistically. "Her phone went off sir, and a very rude song came up. The person on the phone was called, what, chow mein?"

"Noodle" I corrected, both embarrassed and irritated. "And what song was her ring tone?"  

"I do believe the song started, oh what was it again? "Hey how you doin' little momma let me whisper in your ear." I glared at her, but she was sadistically amused. I heard a low, deep chuckle come from Sylar. "At least I don't live in the bleedin' flower tops." I quipped. A rumbling laugh then came forth, whilst the girl looked both astonished and enraged. "Well, I wonder what genius came up with the nickname Noodle."

"Well, I wonder how someone could be so uncultured in comedic horror films. Four words: Shaun. Of. The. Dead"

"Sounds like a lame movie."

"Sounds like someone walked out of a cheap-budgeted American chick-flick, but who am I to judge? " I gybed. Her mouth then opened, and closed. Just like a goldfish. She lowered her head in submissive defeat. "Now, bitch fight over, I'm goin' for a walk." I then got my bag, and walked out, slamming the door in the process. Sylar didn't try to stop me, which I was surprised at. It was break next, so I just went to Yui's class, to check up on her. She was in biology, and so I walked into the science department. I came to her door, and peered through the small window. I saw Yui mixing some chemicals, with a blue-haired, amber-eyed girl. I was happy that she's made some friends. I craned my neck to look at the teachers desk. OK, this was taking the mickey. There stood none other than the Undertaker. He was sat at his desk, eating his famous bone cookies, observing the students. I groaned. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Queenie organised this. It must be a prank.

I started to walk away, mumbling incoherently. I then heard the door open and close.Shit. I turned around slowly, nervously smiling. The Undertaker was stood before me, eyeing me up and down. "Hello dearie, did you need something~?"

"No, thank you. Sorry for disturbing you, I'll just go now."

"Shouldn't you be in class~?" Well, he caught me there. He was doing one of his signature smirks, hands interlaced below his chin. He then started to giggle. "Actually, I do have one tiny question"

"Go on~"

"Are you worth it?(L'Oréal Paris)" He stood there, staring quizically. I then burst out laughing, eyes tearing. It was a very hearty laugh even for me. "See you later, Undertaker." I bid him farewell and walked away. But, there was more to come.Give me strength.
