Work Text:
Kidd was walking to school. He probably had to move schools again, with his luck this school's teacher would also be a maniac. Why couldn’t it go normal? By now he had gone to 3 different schools already. That is already more than most people go to in their entire life. His mom kept him home on the other two days. He sighs, knowing that all he could do was move on to the next school. And this time none of his old friends would be here. It was perhaps that what bothered him the most about this. Not being in the same building as the friends he made last week. Well whatever, with his luck he is gone in a day anyway, maybe he would end up with them then. He walks up to the gates seeing multiple kids running around. The whole playground was way more noisy then the last 5. With way more children running around too.
He walked over to the door and proceeded to stand there standing just waiting for the bell to go or a teacher to tell them to come inside, weird that there wasn’t one to keep an eye on the kids already there. A few minutes later 2 kids walked up to him. “Hi, I am Connor and this is my friend Amaya.” He waits for a second just blinking since nobody came up to him for nothing. Most of the time they always needed him for something. He then proceeds to tell him his name, well fake name. Although was it really fake if his mom changed it last weekend because of his reputation, apparently being in the middle of the deaths of principals was not a good thing. “My name is Greg.” The kids' eyes light up“ Cool name, what is your age? Cause you joined a week late.” Kidd never really thought of that. “Well I turned 5 last week.” “Only last week, me and Amaya turned 5 weeks ago.” The girl, Amaya, turned to speak to Connor. “Calm down a bit otherwise you will scare him.” “Sorry Amaya, let's just wait for our teacher.”
Kidd looked at them and just decided to ask. “Who is our teacher?” “Oh it is Mr. ¤¤¤” A man huh. Kidd never had a male teacher before. He only ever had Miss Applegate and Miss Lovelett. And considering what happened to Miss Lovelett he was surprised that Miss Applegate hadn't quit yet, or she was just to dumb to quit because it did pay her. The kid then starts talking about someone named master Fang. A comic book hero that is very popular apparently. “Have you guys ever played with monstermon cards?” He decides to ask. He had all of them in his backpack just in case, including the extra rare ones he got from Billy and Lily. “What is monstermon?” Is the first thing they ask, he is a bit disappointed but he thinks that maybe a different school district also has different interests. “Nothing, it's nothing.” They move on from the topic and the kid starts rambling about master Fang again. Kidd decides to check it out when he gets home. That's when the teacher calls them inside.
He already seems a lot more sane then his previous teachers. Maybe because one was a drug addict and the other an insane theater freak(he still remembered the trap door in front of the podium and where it leads.). Also the classroom looked so much nicer than the last few. Not that the previous ones were that bad. But this one seemed like it had a lot more funding. The rest of the day is spent being pulled around by Amaya and Connor through the school and playground. Of course sometimes he had to just take a break from the 2 and just sit down somewhere quiet, he wasn’t that used to people actually seeking him out for something other than getting help with their plans. So it was tiring for him to play the entire day, especially since it was the first time he hadn’t found something weird or illegal with any of them. Of course he also held an eye out for anything weird, but somehow it did not happen, which he found weird. Normally he would get a task like the first day, but not now.
At the end of the day nothing happened and he was absolutely flabbergasted by it. When exiting the building Amaya and Connor came up to him asking if he wanted to go play at one of their houses, especially after finding out he lived next to them. When he said no they didn’t push it and just walked with him. He walked home with them before saying his goodbyes and went inside to his room where he sat for a while before being called for dinner. For the first time he went to a school and he wasn’t in danger. Which while weird was certainly something he could get used to eventually.
