Nocens High

H.E.L.P meeting

Max strode down the hall and stood in front of the classroom. Aurelia had told him to meet up here for a gang meeting. Although he didn't like the prospect of seeing Jason on a Friday afternoon, he had to come, knowing that if he didn't, there would be no future for him. He opened the door and was met with a pointy tip of a too close umbrella. Holding it was...

"Ivy Kawaguchi! what are you doing here?" questioned Max, eyes still locked onto the umbrella in case of any sudden movements.

"That's the question I would like to ask you, Max Chase," she said, prodding the umbrella closer to his face. Max put his arms in defence. "Hey, I'm just here for a team meeting," said Max in his defence. Ivy's grip on her umbrella tightened. "I wasn't informed by Aurelia that you would be coming," she said, eyes glaring into Max, "or are you here for a hidden motive." Max smiled uneasily at the poison filled weapon that was getting ever so closer to his face. He saw Jason laying comfortably on the desks.

"Oi, Jason! Help me over here!" yelled Max.

"Do you know him Jason?" asked Ivy, eyes still on Max. Max nodded fervently.

"No I don't know him at all," answered Jason,"feel free to make him your pin cushion."

"What! You basta-" Max was cut off, the umbrella only millimetres away from his nose. Just as Ivy was about to fan out her umbrella...

"That's enough Ivy," said Aurelia. Ivy slowly put down her umbrella. "Yes Aurelia," she said opening her umbrella and swinging it back onto her shoulder. Ivy walked back to the desk she was previously sitting on. Jason got up from his resting position and Aurelia came out from her hiding position. Max let out a breath he didn't know he had been holding. "Why didn't you stop little miss protective earlier?" whined Max, finally walking into the classroom.

"Ivy, put the needle away," said Aurelia. True to her words, in between Ivy's fingers was a long thin needle ready to be thrown at Max. Max gulped. Aurelia turned back to Max. "What would be the fun in that," answered Aurelia. Max swore that was what she said to everything. Max then turned his attention to Jason. He marched over to him.

"And you!" yelled Max. Jason faced him. "When I'm done with you, your face will be so disfigured, all your Fangirls will run just from the sight of you," he threatened. Jason stood up, face to face with Max.

"Let's see you try," said Jason taunting Max, "twit." That's it! That was the breaking point for Max. Max raised his fists.

Aurelia stared at the scene. "Ivy," she said.

"Yes Aurelia," Ivy nodded. She magically whipped out two needles in her hands and flung them at Jason and Max. They stopped moving.

"Don't worry, the paralysis will wear off in 5 minutes," she informed them.

5 minutes later~

Max and Jason we're finally free and able to move. They both pulled out their respective needles, still glaring at each other, but didn't dare to say another word. Aurelia smirked. She gave Ivy an appreciative thanks. Ivy blushed at the praise. "You're so cute!" said Aurelia squeezing Ivy half to death.

"Anyways, now that I have your full attention. This is the first time the whole gang has been together so I think an introduction should be in order," said Aurelia, "I'll start. I'm Aurelia Bennet. I'm 16 and I was known as the Queen in my previous school, East Brooke High, no current alias at Nocens High."

"Yo, I'm Max Chase, also 16, known as the rampaging beast of Nocens High."

"Jason Walker, 16, the Disguised Demon."

"My name is Ivy Kawaguchi. I am 15 years old and I am known for using poisonous needles and so got the name, the Poisonous Ningyō, more commonly known as Poison Ivy."

"Good good. Now that that's done, I'm going to brief you about something," said Aurelia. She jumped off from the desk. She stood in front of the gang.

"We are the H.E.L.P Gang, we will make our victims scream help just from the sight of us, we have one goal and one goal only, "said Aurelia, she stretched out her arm into a fist, "to defeat S.C.A.R and become the greatest gang in Nocens High!" She stared at her team. Ivy bowed her head, Max grinned in excitement and Jason, although still the same impassive face, sat straighter, eyes serious. Aurelia smiled.

"But first need to make our gang well known through out school," said Aurelia, "and there is only one way to do that!"

"Beat up the delinquents of Nocens High!"

***

And so for the next week, each member spent their time decapitating everyone they saw, leaving a single note, H.E.L.P.
