Alfred F. Jones:
Is there going to be a grudge match in the future :3

I am pleasantly surprised at the speed of your updates, Hele.

Dizzy H. "Muffin" Muffin:

Uh-oh! Looks like shit's about to get real now! :3

Chapter IV - Rivals

Melisa pointed at a random male student and asked if he was ?The Butler?, but he shook his head. All the other classmates remained silent and didn?t said a thing. Neither they looked at each other, trying to avoid suspicious acts. 'Why is she seeking for him?' Was probably the question that went through everyone?s minds.

The teacher tried to change the tense mood by coughing and requesting the girls to finish up their introduction and pick a seat at the four new spots at the front. However, Avelia moved towards the window row together with Amy and Shimuka.
?You, you and you, move.? Avelia commanded, pointing at the three students in the back near the window.

Teresa was about explode from her anger but noticed John was looking at her and slowly shaking his head. Probably telling her to leave it and calm down. She nodded back, acknowledging but also gesturing back a sign of, it is in your hands. The teacher shrugged the back of his head and apologised to the students. The three silently stood up and took their seats at the, originally reserved for the Venus High girls, front tables.

?Now then, you there. You also move so Melisa can sit there.? Avelia commanded again. But this time she was pointing at John. He wasn?t responding as he closed his eyes and folded his arms.

?What?s with gesture?? Avelia demanded with an irritated voice. 'Ya looking for trouble? Huh??
?Calm down Avelia.? Amy said while patting her shoulder: ?He must shocked by our appearance and is thinking of a way to apologise. Isn?t that right boy??
?Oh my, you think he is about to cry?? Shimuka asked giggling.

John shifted his eyes towards Amy who was looking down on him. He actually enjoyed the angle because she seemed pretty stacked. Avelia on the other hand seemed more modest and Shimuka wasn't that bad either.

Avelia leant over and looked directly into his face: ?Well??
?Robbert.? John suddenly responded.
?Y-yes??
?My apologies, could you please make that seat free for the fourth lady??
?Eh- o-okay.?
Robbert, who was sitting next to the window seat in the back, quickly picked up his bag and moved to the front of the room and took the final seat.
Shimuka waved her index finger and shook her head: 'My my, that is not correct my dear. Avelia clearly asked you to move now didn't she?'

Teresa couldn?t any longer endure this nonsense and interfered: ?What do you think you?re doing!? she shouted. The Venus High girls turned around towards her in surprise.
?Who are you missy?? Melisa asked raising an eye brow.
?I am Teresa Adams, chief of the Jupiter High Society. I won't allow this disrespect towards our school members. You cannot just barge in and think you can do as you please.?
?Is that so?? Melisa asked while slowly walking over to Teresa: ?Come to think of it, you look pretty cute my dear.?

Teresa was left speechless. Her face flushed red in embarrassment. Her confidence and bravery disappeared within seconds. She started fidgeting her own skirt and didn?t dare to look into her eyes.

?Ha ha ha, this kitten was acting all tough a few seconds ago but now seems to have lost her nails.?

Amy , Avelia and Shimuka were laughing along as well, when suddenly a loud smack on the table was heard. The girls quickly turned around and noticed John standing glaring towards them.

?J-John man.? Leo slowly spoke.
?Listen up you four. You may insult or make fun of me, but don?t you dare to make fun of Teresa. I won?t forgive that.?
?Oh? Look, the knight has arrived girls to rescue this kitten princess

?All right that is enough!? a voice shouted from the doorway. It was the principal Mr. Highway. Melisa and the rest were surprised and slowly backed off from Teresa.

?And I thought the transfer and placement of these students was going to be an easy job. But it seems it is going to be pretty troublesome.? The principal looked around and noticed John? angry face. ?John, come with me for a second.?
'He didn't call him by his surname,' Leo softly spoke to himself: 'Could it be he knows they are looking for him?'

John followed the principal out of the class, but before he left the room he turned around towards the Venus High girls and said: ?Don?t you dare to do anything to Teresa or take my seat.? His glare pierced through Shimuka, Melisa, Amy and Avelia who kind of got intimidated by him. When John left the room, the teacher demanded silence and asked everyone to take their seats.

On the roof of the school, the principal turned to John. He didn?t spoke but stared at the sky for a moment. John remained still and silence as the principal sighed for a moment.

?Mr. Butler, it seems these four students in your class are extraordinary.?
?I noticed.? John answered calmly.
?How much do you know??
?Enough to say they are going to be a problem. But on the other hand, exciting for our group.?
?Mr. Butler, do you remember the rules about gangs being illegal in this school??
?Yes, I do principal Highway.?
?They are a gang, Mr. Butler. Those four girls and probably others from Venus High.? The principal said with a chilly tone.
John closed his eyes and smirked: ?So I was right after all. It?s her.?
?Oh? You know them Mr. Butler??
?I do sir, but I rather keep this information classified among my own members.?
?That is not how things work here, Mr. Butler. If there is important information to be told then it must be revealed right now. Such is my responsibility and right to know the details.?
?I am sorry sir, I cannot do that. Forgive my rudeness.?
The principal stared for a moment at John. ?You are behaving different than normal John. You don?t apologise quickly to me.?

John remained silent and looked away. The principal shrugged and sighed once more: ?Well then Mr. Butler. As we agreed in my room, please don?t disappoint me. And make sure you don?t get yourself in trouble, or us. I don?t want the Principal from Venus High, Miss Courtney, to come and complain in my office. Just got an e-mail from her saying she will be frequently checking on her students.?

John looked at the principal again and smiled: ?Isn?t that nice, that means I get to measure her as well. She must have nice measures.?
?Ok I think that is enough Mr. Butler.?
?He he he, don?t worry sir, it was a joke. I?ll discuss this matter with my members. I?ll let you know the details when it is the time. Right now I have to return to class. I don?t want to miss today?s maths lesson.?
?Very well, Mr. Butler. You may be dismissed.?

John entered the class room again. Leo was relieved to see him return quickly. Even Teresa was happy to see him back quickly. He noticed that the girls took their seats as well. Shimuka and Avelia in the back, Amy in front of Avelia near the window and Melisa in front of her. Her seat was right behind John which didn?t please him.

?My apologies teacher for being late.?
?It is all right John, please take your seat. I was in the middle of explaining this formula.?

He walked to his seat and noticed everyone staring at him. Too much focus of attention which he didn?t really like. Leo leaned towards him and started whispering: ?Psst, what happened man.?
?Nothing.? he whispered back: ?Call Mack and Rico during the break to meet up in the park.?
?Got it.?

Not really, I am spending 40-60 minutes in the bus on my way to school or home. So accompanied with some soothing lounge music, I get to write quite easy. Which is why the updates are frequent. It is also easier to draw inspiration when you know what the ending is going to be (which is not a surprise if you read the note :V)
