3- Toast is better than being King

"Us Kings in waiting got to stick close together."

Hearing this guy Kai smiled. Kai knew that if this guy knew who he was he must also know he is currently in last place. Despite that, this guy was encouraging him to become King.

Seeing Kai respond positively to him , he laughed, " So tell me do you know what the best thing in the world is?"

Because they were just talking about becoming King, Kai replied quickly and confidently, "Being King."

The boy shook his head slowly, "No, no, no, no, no. The best thing in life is toast."

Kai looked quizzically at the boy. Toast was the last thing he expected to hear, ' How is toast better than being King.'

Looking at Kai's confused face, "Ah I see you haven't had the pleasure of perfect toast. Just think of it. Fresh white-bread that has just been toasted to perfection. Crispy, yet still has the right amount of chewiness. It just came fresh out of the toaster. You spread some of my mom's home-made butter on to the toast. You watch the butter melt into the toast then spread whatever smear you want onto it. Or you can eat it with just the butter, that's amazing too. Once you have done that you bite into the toast. You hear it crunch in your mouth. You feel the texture in your mouth go from coarse to soft. You feel your taste buds implode as you wrap you tongue around the food. Then you swallow the goodness and prepare for another hit with your mouth salivating in anticipation." He said this looking longingly into space.

Hearing this guy go on about the greatness of toast, ' Great, there is definitely something wrong with this guy. But then again isn't there something wrong with all of us. Plus this could be my first friend since primary school. You know what they say, beggars can't be choosers.'

Smiling at his new friend, "Well I still don't see how toast can be better than being King. Nonetheless I respect your opinion."

Not giving up, the boy said, " How about this. After I make you toast you can decide whether it's better or not."

Nodding his head, " Sure but when will that be?"

The boy fiddled in his bag then took out a silver rectangular contraption out of his bag, "I will make you toast in break. I always bring my beautiful toast maker with me to school. How else can I have the perfect toast?"

Kai shook his head, 'Of course you did', "You know what. I am looking forward to it but I got to go to class so I guess I'll see you at break. Oh, but before I go. What is your name?"

"My name is Quinton Electra nice to meet you." Then he ran off.

After talking to Quinton Electra, Kai went to class. Oddly enough they never shared a class together. After three classes the bell for break rang. When the bell rang Kia went to the school's cafeteria because that is where he was supposed to meet up with Quinton. Once Kai got there, he was already waiting for him.

Quinton Electra was waving at him energetically from afar. Once Kai reached him he said, "Come with me." Then he led him into the school's kitchen.

"Are you sure we are allowed to be here?"

"Of course, I did this in primary school all the time. So they must already know about me."

Oddly enough Kai believed him. He was sure that the school knew about his quirk.

Quinton Electra fiddled in his bag again and took out the toaster. Then he plugged it in. Afterwards, he took a loaf of white bread out of his bag. Despite being in his bag the bread was in perfect condition. It did not get squished at all. Then he took a plastic container out of his bag. Inside was his mother's home-made butter. He put these two items onto the silver counter. Then he walked to a cupboard above and took two plates out.
