The Failed Experiments

Chapter 10- Smith High

~Mitch's PoV~

Calm down Mitch, calm down... Rubbing the temples of my forehead, I stepped into the cafeteria.

Since the incident, I've been quiet and tried to regain my sanity. When Jason took my question too personal, I immediately got offended once Seto joined his side. That's when I lost it and released all my anger out, more than I usually did. When Jerome reminded me of the 'accident' nine years ago, it added more fuel to the flames and made me lose it completely. I'm not so sure what happened after Seto yelled, but I do recall Adam saying the school knew where Jerome and I were even if we were away from home. Creepy. I'm not even sure how I got home, it's like I was drunk the entire time with blindness.

I flopped down at a table and tried to run away from the insanity, before my friends showed up. I was one of the first of the 3rd generation to be labeled, as a failure. It's a miracle that the scientists sent me to a mental hospital instead of disposing me, since the experiment was on my mind. Apparently, you don't have mess around with the brain to get a metamorphosis ability.

I laid my head on the table and groaned, I don't see why school forces kids to wake up at six am and expect them to learn for eight hours strait. I'd rather go back to the mental hospital, well maybe not...I'm not sure which is better.

"Mitch, you okay?" A familiar voice asked.

I lifted my head and rested my chin on the table and saw the source of the voice. Jason.

"Look.....about yesterday-"

"Forget about it. I'm sorry you keep on having bad first impressions, but you get use to it when you hang out with everybody for a day or two." I said.

He simply smiled then sat across from me at the table. "You were alone and Jerome's still trying to get through the hall, so I decided to sit with you..that and I don't know where the others are."

I straitened my back and grinned. "Well Ty and Sky are seniors, so they show up a little late to lunch and everyone else is a junior, except for Seto who's a sophomore."

"Want to go get lunch?"

"Sure, I think I saw Jerome get in line."

~~~~~~~~~

"So wait, you haven't been to school since you were in fifth grade, how'd you get to be a junior then?" Jerome asked, stuffing slightly uncooked fish into his mouth.

"I have no idea to be honest, but I think Sky had his friend Sub hack into my files or whatever, and make it seem like I had a prefect attendance since fifth grade. That's what he's told me at least." Jason explained.

"Oh you mean him?" I asked. I pointed to a senior sitting next to Sky and Ty, who wore a green jacket with the sleeves rolled up and grey pants with black shoes.

Jason nodded. "Sky said he doesn't like to talk or something like that."

"He's a mute, actually a normal teen who stopped talking for some reason." I explained.

"Alright, can you explain to me why Jerome keeps on stuffing raw fish, into the black hole that is his mouth?" Jason asked, motioning towards Jerome who had half a fish in his mouth.

Jerome and I laughed while Jason still held a perplexed expression. We stopped laughing our heads after what seemed like an hour then finally managed to calm down.

"That's another story, but to sum it up: he's a bacca!" I exclaimed.

"A bacca, isn't that like from Star Wars or somethin-"

"Sshhhhh!!" Jerome shushed Jason. He held his hand up, singling us to stay quiet then rested it back onto the table. He kept his voice low as he explained to Jason. "If you mention other wordly movies, the author might hear you and kill you off!"

"Anyways....." Jason said, careful to avoid breaking the fourth wall. "care to explain what a bacca is then?"

Jerome and I explained how in the facility he was apart of the 4th generation, where they mixed mobs with Minecraftians. Instead of combing Jerome with a normal Minecraft mob, the scientists went one step further and created a mob of their own. They called it a Bear then came along the bacca, Jerome, after crossing his DNA with the bear's. Unfortunately, the experimenters weren't searching for a bac, they wanted a bear and deemed his as a failed experiment. Luckily, the facility is really bad at keeping their experiments contained, so Jerome escaped and found me.

I smiled at the memory, while Jerome continued on the conversation with Jason, that was the best day of my life.

~Seto's PoV~

Gah, I hate how every class teaches you something new everyday that you'll never use once in your life! Seriously, when am I ever going to use y=7x+14 and -3+6y=24? Although it's easy Algebra, my point is that it will never help me in life!

I flop my head down onto my text book and sigh, I always get done in five minutes then have nothing to do, whatsoever. The class rambled on, encouraging the teacher to solve number one for them, since it's so hard.

"All of you be quiet! We have a new student and I want you to stay silent while I show her what to do." Mr. Brooke ordered. "Now, I want you all to welcome, Britney."

My head shot up in disbelief, it's not possible. My eyes land on a girl with golden hair tied back into a pony tail, she wore a black t-shirt with a gold ingot and plain black pants. I clench my fist and tried to hid the few tears that escaped, it can't be her...that is not the Britney I once knew.

"Seto." The teacher spat.

I whip my tears quickly and regained my normal self. "Yes, Mr. Brooke?"

"Can you escort Britney to her locker and next class, five minutes before the bell rings?" He asked.

I nodded then pretended to go back to my work. Mr. Brooke lead Britney to his desk then explained to her, his classroom.

'Hey Seto, it's been a while.' Britney cooed.

'You should've stayed dead while you had the chance.' I growled.

'Oh Seto, how could I abandon my dear friend....when I need his assistance?'

'If you think I'm falling again for that, you're wrong.'

Britney laughed in my head. 'I wasn't talking about you silly, I'm speaking about the Hero hybrid.'
