Allen carefully applied waterproof concealer over his scar, triple checking that it was almost impossible to tell that he was wearing makeup. Once he was certain, he left his bathroom and got dressed. The school he was attending was full of rich kids, hence the school had a uniform. A white short sleeved button up, a black jacket to go over it, black dress pants, and a tie. Allen hurried down the stairs, his pitbull Tim at his heels as he walked into the kitchen where Mana was cooking something. Allen smiled tightly. "Dad, you burned it again," he told him gently. Mana groaned loudly.

"Don't worry everyone, I bought cereal," Neah mumbled from his spot on the couch. Allen looked over his shoulder and snickered, the dark-haired man was curled up in a massive amount of blankets, watching tv with a bowl of cereal. Mana frowned, looking down at the burned mess lying on the pan.

"It was a good try dad," Allen told him, "Maybe you can ask Cross to teach you how to cook,"

"Oh, and you can learn how to gamble and cheat at poker!" Neah added with sarcastic enthusiasm.

Allen rolled his eyes, before waving as he made his way to the door. "Gotta go, see you after school," He silently slipped on a pair of white gloves, an extra precaution, even though he already wrapped bandages around his left arm.

"Have fun on your first day honey!" Mana shouted as he left.

Allen winced, he had a feeling today was probably going to be a disaster waiting to happen. He gripped his backpack strap tightly as he walked to his new highschool, which wasn't too far from his house. He could feel anxiety begin to curl in his chest, he worried his lower lip as he walked. He wasn't here to make friends, nor was he here to make enemies. Allen was here to stay undetected, and nothing more. He steeled his resolve as he walked, he would be kind, caring, but distant. After a few minutes of walking in silence and nervousness, he noticed others walking too, some looking wide awake, while others yawned and stared blankly ahead.

A very lively group caught his attention. "Yuu-chan! Good morning!" An energetic redhead shouted, sprinting past Allen, almost knocking him over to tackle the man in front of him. A girl followed casually, and sent an apologetic smile his way.

"Sorry about him, he's a little energetic," The girl told him, "You look new,"

"I am," Allen told her, a soft smile played on his lips, "I just moved here,"

"Well, I hope you like it here, i'm Lenalee, part of Kanda Yuu's pack,"

"Nice to meet you, the names Allen," He replied. Lenalee smiled, waved goodbye and then joined who Allen assumed was Kanda. The girl was nice, and Allen strongly resisted the urge to befriend her. Being an outcast wasn't in Allen's nature, but it was his only option. It was too dangerous to get attached to anyone, he'd probably move again. Up ahead he could see the school, bigger than any school he'd ever been to. Allen bit his lip, hopefully he wouldn't get lost. He had a good sense of direction but with a school this big navigating it would probably be a difficult task at first.

Luckily, as he entered the building, he realized all the hallways were numbered, which made his job a thousand times easier. As he walked he searched for his first hour, which was homeroom. Allen found it easily, and the teacher kindly directed him to an empty seat. A few minutes later, class began. "Okay class, before we begin, I want our new student to introduce themselves." Allen almost groaned out loud.

He stood, and offered his classmates a kind smile, "Uh, my name is Allen Walker, i'm an omega, and I transferred here from Japan," Allen stated simply.

"Why do you have a british accent then?" someone asked.

"I was born in London," he told them vaguely, before sitting down. The teacher, Klaud Nine nodded before beginning her class.

"Alright everyone, today i'm going to talk about the upcoming tournament for all packs. Your Alpha will register your pack for the tournament, if he or she chooses to." Allen raised an eyebrow as she continued. Apparently, every year in April they held a tournament to see who had the strongest and most diverse pack. It sounded like fun, and loners like Allen could partake in some of the events if they wanted to. Allen immediately rejected the idea, he definitely didn't want to participate and end up getting noticed. Undetectable. He needed to stay unnoticed.

Allen breezed through his day, only encountering minor hiccups, until lunch finally arrived. He was sitting alone, eating his lunch in silence with a book open at his side. The book was relatively boring, but it kept his mind occupied and he didn't look pathetic. He was nearly done eating when a raven-haired teen, Kanda, shoved a small boy out of his way. The poor guy fell flat on his face, and Kanda gave a cold, unamused laugh.

Allen knew he would regret this later, but her got up, sent a fiery glare Kanda's way and helped the fallen teen up. "Jeez, you fell pretty hard, are you okay?" He asked.

"Y-yes thank you," the boy mumbled. Allen smiled before raising an eyebrow at Kanda.

"Are you blind?" Allen asked, crossing his arms.

"What? No, you idiot,"

"Then why'd you shove him?" He asked calmly.

"I did it on purpose you fucking beansprout,"

"You're an asshole," He muttered, just as the bell signaling lunch was over rang. He made his quick escape out with the crowd, seething with anger. Who just shoves people like that? Kanda Yuu apparently. Allen spent most of the rest of his day ignoring Kanda, who now seemed intent on being an asshole to him. As he was leaving the school, a tall teen tapped him on the shoulder. "Thank you for standing up for Johnny," the guy said with a smile.

"No problem," He replied.

The next day, Allen realized he already fucked up everything. Calling Kanda Yuu an asshole was a mistake. A huge one. Everyone was staring, and whispering incoherently. He'd been noticed, the exact opposite of what he was aiming for. His day was relatively the same, despite the newly achieved attention. During gym was when things took a noticeable change as they were running. The red-head from his first day kept giving him curious looks, and the rest of his class seemed to be holding its breath. Daisya keep looking back and forth between them, before finally saying, "Are you going to fight him or something Lavi?" Allen pretended he didn't hear him, and waited for Lavi's response.

"Yuu needs to lighten up," Lavi said with a playful snicker. "It was hilarious to watch,"

"I still can't believe Kanda hasn't fought him," Daisya muttered, "That wouldn't be funny to watch," Allen picked up his speed and ran even faster, passing everyone with ease. He should've seen this coming, he'd challenged him in a sense by calling him an asshole. Fuck. Kanda was probably the strongest Alpha in the entire school. Allen cursed himself for his stupidity, he should've kept his mouth shut. It was a relief when the coach told them to get changed and leave for lunch, but then he remembered her had the same lunch as Kanda himself.

Allen groaned and rubbed his temple. "What's wrong?" someone asked. Allen turned to find that Lavi was the one who asked.

"Nothing, nothing's wrong." He lied with a forced smile. Lavi smirked and patted him on the back.

"If you say so little buddy,"

Kanda was genuinely curious about this new student at his school, Allen Walker. He was bold, really bold. He was the only one actively challenging him, and Kanda felt strangely excited. So, during lunch he watched the boy like a hawk, taking note of his near ethereal appearance. Silver eyes, white hair, pale pink lips, a lean muscular build, pale skin. He was truly an oddity, with his gold earring dangling from one of his ears, and his white gloves. Kanda finally got up from his seat and approached the kid, Allen didn't seem to notice until Kanda growled, "Oi shortstack,"

Allen looked up at him and glared, "What could you possibly want?"

"Why are you so fucking ugly?" Kanda snapped.

"Um, excuse me?" Allen replied, "Have you ever looked in the mirror ponytail?"

"Says the fucking beansprout with strange hair and silver eyes," Kanda grumbled, "No wonder no one in this school wants to be friends with you. You look like a monster."

"At least if I did get friends they'd be real ones." Allen shot back, "Anyone who's friends with you is probably scared of you."

"Allen! Kanda! My office, now!~" Komui, the principle shouted, walking over to them hastily. Komui grabbed both of them by the wrist and dragged them to his office. Allen glared hotly at Kanda as they walked.

Once inside the office, Komui took a seat. "Well, you two don't seem to be getting along very well,"

"Hmph, obviously," Kanda grumbled, "He's insanely annoying."

"Right back at you, Bakanda,"

"Look, I understand this transition can be difficult. You probably miss your old friends Allen but this is probably not the best way to get new ones,"

"I don't need friends, Komui."

Kanda clicked his tongue, and Komui sighed.

"You do need friends, Allen. You might never join another pack at this rate."

"Who'd want you in their pack?" Kanda growled.

"Shut the hell up, fucking ponytail. Anyway, why I am the only one getting lectured here?"

Komi gave him an overly energetic smile, "Well I don't have much authority over the strongest Alpha in America,"

"Are you joking? This is ridiculous! Why are you even bothering with lecturing me if your not gonna do the same to him?!"

"Kanda could you please step out for a moment?" Kanda rolled his eyes and happily complied, but he stayed close enough to the door to hear their conversation. This kid was much more hotheaded than he gave him credit for.

"Allen, Mana and Neah have informed me about your situation." Kanda heard a loud, pissed off sigh.

"Can we talk about this after school or something? I've got chemistry and the bell is about to ring,"

"I can just write you a pass, Allen. Now is as good as anytime to talk about it."

"I don't ever want to talk about it,"

"Look, I know your time with-" But Komi never finished his sentence, Allen stormed out, looking not furious, but scared.

"Oi fucking beansprout-" Allen completely ignored him, not so much as a glance as he stomped past with a dull look in his eyes. Kanda scowled and walked back into the office.

"You handled that well," he muttered sarcastically. "What's that beansprouts deal?"

"That's confidential," Komui told him vaguely, "I don't think it'd be a good idea to tell you anything unless you needed to know,"

"Che," Kanda grumbled before turning on his heel and leaving. Allen Walker was just a bunch of secrets waiting to be uncovered, and he was determined to find out the truth. Kanda scanned the halls as he walked to his next class, hoping to get a glimpse of the shorter male. Unfortunately he didn't see him, and Kanda spent the last hours of his day being bored, trying his best to ignore Lavi. "Yuu," the energetic boy mumbled, "Hey Yuu!"

"WHAT?"

"Jeez what's wrong?" Lavi mumbled, putting his forehead on his desk. "Is it about the new kid Allen? He's cool, please don't kill him!"

"Che. I'm not gonna kill the beansprout." Kanda snapped, "I just want to know what his fucking problem is,"

"...And you want me to find out?" Lavi guessed, "I can do that Yuu-chan! No problem, I've been a little curious about him myself. Who even wears gloves anymore? He must be hiding something."

"You two are so nosy!" Lenalee whined from behind them, "Can't you just leave him alone?"

"Never!" Lavi told her with a giant smile, "I have a thirst for knowledge, and I must discover his secrets!"
