Chapter 3:Waterloo

Waterloo belongs to ABBA.

A girl with bright red hair moved into my field of vision as I tried taking notes in debate. "Dude, move it! I am trying to copy down the resolutions for the tournament!" I nearly yelled.

"I give the sincerest of apologies! I would only like to make a quick request." She spoke brightly.

"What, paint your cheeks with rainbows and unicorns?" said I, sarcastically, of course.

"No, yet that would be the most WONDERFUL! I would only like you to answer a quick question. Are you in knowledge of who the crowd parted for this morning?"

I turned bright red, and turned to look and see if our teacher had overheard. Fortunately, Mr. Wilson was passed out cold, and our peers just prodded at him and drew faces on his mask. I slowly nodded.

"That is the most excellent! You shall be my rival for Richard Grayson!" giggled she. I snorted with contempt.

"Me? A rival for a girl like you? First, I don't want to compete. Have him. Second, if I were to compete with YOU, I think we BOTH know who would win. Obviously, you!" I replied, trying to hold back my laughter.

"Even so, my name is Kori Anders. I am a student of the exchange, coming from Tameran. Goodbye, Raven. Best of fortune to you, and may the best one bathe in victory!" Kori chirped, then floated out of the class. I just shook my head and finished copying down my notes.

Richard Grayson, eh? Looks more like a Robin to me. I shook my head to clear my thoughts. The bell rang and Mr. Wilson awoke with a start. I sprinted out of the classroom after shoving my things into a backpack, so I would not be caught in the aftermath.

"Hey, Raven. Um... Raven? Is...Is it that time of month again?" Cyborg grimaced.

I turned my head to look at the seat of my pants, and I saw a red splotch which looked suspiciously like blood.

"Nope! Meh, I really don't care. I mean, it's freaking high school. If you don't have your period yet, there is something seriously messed up with your body." I used my demon powers to clean off the splotch. Cyborg just shrugged and we kept on walking until we got to our small group of misfits. I saw Kori grinning evilly and maliciously out of the corner of my eyes. I just blinked and talked on.

Two could play at this game.
