Chapter Text
“Okay, are you ready?” Lookout asks, getting Freakity's lunch from the fridge.
“Yep!” Freakity smiled as he put his schoolbag on his back.
“Are you sure you have everything?” Verity asks, his tone showing his worries as he tied Freakity's Uniform. “You have to be sure you have everything, you can't just teleport things to yourself. You can't turn into our monster form, you can't eat anybody. If you have this craving coming to you, I give you human meat on the side but you are not obligated to eat it. Only in emergency”
“You give him what..?” Lookout turns to Verity like he just heard a murder happen. “You give him WHAT!”
Verity just shrugs. “We have to be sure he doesn't try to kill a kid, right?”
“Try to explain to teacher why the fuck our child have a human meat in his damn lunchbox!”
“I make it to be like a porc steak… nobody gonna notice. I even cook it to make it more normal”
“You better not be the reason there's gonna be cops at our house!” Lookout pointed to Verity with a fake whining face like that meme with the crying lady and the cat in a restaurant. Verity just blinks and teleports away. “Bitch… anyway, Freakity we have to go, worse things to do is being late at your first day of school”
****
They have arrived at the school, looking at how big it is. “Woaw… I'm not surprised that this school has slots to take you…” Lookout looks at the school. “Of course there would be uniforms as well.. nobody gonna look at the clothes of millions of kids…”
Freakity just looks around them to find his friend until a pression arrives behind him, he turns. “Michael!”
“Frederick!” The other child hugs him “How do you find the school? It is pretty, right!”
Freakity nods and gets pulled by Micheal because he wanted to show him the playing ground.
Eric gets closer to Lookout. “I hope getting everything was not too hard”
Lookout turns to Eric. “No, actually. I found old school things in my storage that was mine when I was a teenager. Some notebooks were empty so I took away my name and put his. Even have some good Pencil cases. Totally free”
“Lucky. The stores are so expensive these days. So annoying. Anyway, since you left the job, is your channel back to normal?”
Lookout nods. “Yep! I guess I just needed a break from all the stress of having a child… And I need to find a school for him so I guess it was just showing in my videos.”
“I see. You have to give me your channel name, I would love to know it” Eric smiled, Innocent to what horror his channel actually is.
“Uhm… Better not” Lookout rubs the back of his neck.
“Why not?” Eric asks, confused on why he is not allowed to have his friend's YouTube channel?
“Probably because it is trash” Somebody walked to them, putting his arm around Lookout's shoulder. “How are you, crybaby?”
Lookout flinches away from the man. “Why are you here, Gabriel?”
The bitch man, now known as Gabriel, points to a blond kid with green eyes talking with his gang of friends. “My kid is in this school. I guess you are here for a kid as well? Actually surprised a girl wanted you”
“So what? It is not your fucking business” Lookout rhetorc back, greetings his teeth from pushing that guy face.
“Oooh~ The crybaby is actually biting back now? I guess you did grow up a bit from when we were in school” Gabriel laughs, putting his hand in his pocket.
“Dad!” Freakity runs to Lookout's side. “There is a wall in the back where you can do graffiti and there were some spray bottles on the ground and I did a drawing! Wanna see it??”
Gabriel looked down at the kid and saw the colors of his hair. “You know dye is not accepted here, right?”
Lookout looks at Gabriel with a bothered face. “Yes I know.”
“Then why does your son have dyed hair? Yellow none the less. That is like the ugliest color ever with brown.” Gabriel rolls his eyes.
“What did you say about my son..? It is his real hair color. He was born with it.” Lookout keeps Freakity near his side.
Micheal who was behind Freakity, move to be behind his dad. “Can we not fight in here? It scare the kids and it is a really bad view for the teachers.”
Lookout sighs and calms down. Turning to Freakity. “Show me where is that drawing, we have some time before they start the talking for hours”
Freakity smiles and pulls Lookout, Micheal pulls Eric with him to the behind of the school to show the graffiti wall. Freakity pointed a drawing of a Minecraft tree. “Look! Doesn't it look so real!”
“That is so pretty” Lookout pats Freakity's hair. “You really are a good artist.”
“Got that from you!” Freakity hugs Lookout before the bells ring to warn people it's gonna start.
The two families walk back to where everyone is. The director is in front of everyone, a mic in his hand. “Oye, Oye! Welcome to Bealevier primary school! I hope all the new little ones have fully their uniform on, nobody holding their vest please. I know it is really hot today but we need them to be used to having it on their back when we go inside the school. It is often cold inside and then they can take it off during the playground time. Anyway we're gonna start by showing the teachers for each grade.” Four teachers walk to the stage with the director. “For Grade 1, there is, Miss. Fiona Garden, Sir. James Carton, Miss. Kaylee Hilton and Miss. Joanna Zallend”
Each teacher waves as their name is given then they walk down the stairs, four other teachers get up the stage.
“Now for Grade 2!”
****
The director said the names of every teacher of this year. Each kid has to go to the director for a colored band and then go to the teacher with the same colored band.
Freakity take a colored band, it is blue. He walked around until he found his teacher. Lookout, catch and hug him. “I will go home now, hope you have a good day, okay?”
“Okay! Bye, dad!” Freakity waves to his dad and walks to the teacher with the same colored band as his. It is Miss. Joanne! He gave his band to the madam.
“Thank you” She looks at her attendance sheet. “Okay, your name please”
“Frederick”
“Frederick, Frederick… found you! Frederick Marel, Right?”
“Yep!” He remembered seeing that as the last name on Lookout’s legal documents when Verity was looking.
“Super, go to the other kids to make some friends and when everyone is here I will all show you the rest of the school!”
Freakity nods and walks to the other kids who seem to already be making friends. “Hello!”
A girl with brown hair tied in two ponytails. moves to him and looks at his hair. “This is really yellow, it looks like gold! Can I touch it?”
“Uhm… sure? It is normal hair tho” Freakity looks confused but let the girl touche his hair.
“My mommy told me if somebody has a weird texture in their hair, it probably means they put dye. You don't have that feeling. Is it really natural?” The little girl asks, her head titled to the side.
“Yes it is! I was born with it. I like my hair very much” Freakity smiles and a boy gets closer to look closer.
“Can I touch it too?” A black boy asks as well. “Is it gonna stain my hand if I touch it?”
“Uhm.. no? It does not dye” Freakity gets a bit annoyed.
“My parents say pure yellow is not possible. The most yellow-ish your hair can be is like Oliver!” The little boy pointed to another kid in the group who has blond hair.
“I was born with this hair color. My papa have the same hair color as me” Freakity holds himself from punching anybody. They are kids… They don't understand”
The teacher walked to the kids with a sweet child. “Kids, please. Frederick’s dads already proved to the director that his hair color really is natural. It just means Frederic has a really low Eumelanin and Pheomelanin that make this really yellow color like gold. It is really rare but it is possible. Like for people with Virgilio or heterochromia.”
The little boy looks at Freakity. “Sorry”
“It is okay..” Freakity calms his anger and smile
“Good. Everyone is here so I will show you around and follow me!” The teacher smiles and has every kid following her like baby ducks. The school seemed bigger inside. They walk in multiple corridors and rooms, showing everything. The bathrooms, the multiple floors, multiple classrooms, the dinner room, the gymnasium, the lockers, which they get to have their own lock on them. Finally, when they arrive at their classroom, the teacher lets everyone sit down. “You can choose your desk. Please don't talk until I finish talking. There are no specific seats.” Every kid sits at desks and puts their bags down. “Thank you, everyone. I’m Joanna Zallend. I will be your teacher for this year. I have a little one myself. He is 10 years old. Actually in this school as well. Can you please present yourself and tell a fun fact about yourself?”
A little girl, it was the girl who was talking to Freakity. “I'm Serina Dayn! I have the biggest princess wardrobe!” She gently sit down
“That is super, Serina! Next?”
The little boy who was also talking to Freakity gets up. “I’m Samuel Farden.. Uhm… I have a Malinois!”
“That is very cute, Samuel, next?”
Every kid has introduced themselves, some saying things about their family, things they love, things they have. Even hobbies. At the end Freakity was the last one. He doesn't know what type of fun fact he can give of himself to seem interesting. The teacher turned to him. “What about your Frederic?”
Freakity gets up and toys with the side of his uniform. “I’m Frederick Marel and uhm… My dad has a YouTube channel..”
All the kids turn to him. “Woaw really!” Serina squeal. “Is your dad like Mr.Beast!?”
“Uhm no?” Freakity shakes his head. What he knows about that Mr.Beast guy is just that he is rich. “But he do Minecraft video”
“That's so cool! What is his Channel name!?” A boy shouted from the back.
“I don't think he will be happy if I give young kids the name of his channel. It is mostly for teenagers.” Freakity rubs the back of his neck.
“Were you in one of his videos?” The little girl next to him asked, her eyes shining.
“I was… it was a… r-roleplay?” It was not but better to lie right now, Freakity thought.
“Yes, this is the good word to play a role in a game!” The teacher says, thinking his incertitude was from not being sure of the word. “But it can also be voice acting since you give your voice to a character in Minecraft.”
“Y-yes” Freakity nods, unsure of what to say.
“That is super everyone!” Joanne says to the student. “We have some minutes to talk more before the recess. Do people have more questions to ask?”
A boy raised his hand. “If Frederic is on a YouTube channel, does that make him famous?”
The teacher blinks. “Uhm not really. It depends on how famous his dad’s channel is.”
The boy nods.

Recess was calm for Freakity, he gets to play with Michael now. “How is your class?”
Micheal sit down in a bench, his vest now on his laps. “Uhm… I don't know. Boring… Harry was laughing at me again…”
“Who is that Harry..?”
“The kid of the man who was bothering your dad. Like father like son I guess”
Freakity think a moment. “We can make him regret laughing at you!”
“No no! No need. I just didn't have a fun fact to tell everyone… he was not lying. I have a boring life.
“No! You are so cool! You make the best build ever!” Freakity tries to make him happy.
Micheal smiles.
****
The rest of the class were pretty much the same. Now it is time to eat. Lunchtime. Freakity has a seat away from everyone. He doesn't want people to notice the oblivious weird steak in his lunch. He can see his papa has tried to make it look like a porc steak but… it just looks wrong. While he tries to find a way to mix the steak with the original lunch which is a simple sandwich.. he sees a person sitting in front of him. He looks up to see Micheal.
“Why are you sitting alone?” Michael asks as he unzips his lunch and gets his lunch out. “You have a steak too?” He shows his lunch, looking like some chicken in a sea of potatoes. “My dad made the chicken look like fish swimming in the potato!
“Cool! Mine is a simple sandwich and some steak.” Showing his lunch, still keeping the steak away to make it hard to see, so look normal. “It is porc.”
“You can taste my food if you let me taste your porc!” Micheal showing his food to Freakity.
“Uhm… you can't” Freakity pushes his food to himself. “It is… the only meat I can digest correctly”
“Really? That must be boring!”
“Yeah it is” Freakity is freaking out in his mind, he is not gonna give human meat to a kid!
