"Draven, let me handle the snacks, you go and save us a spot" Natalia said, lining behind a snack bar.
"Baby, remember I like my popcorn with butter" Draven said and headed to a wide door, blocked by huge robots in the center.
Natalia froze, blinking at his departing figure. "Did he just say what I thought he just said?"
"Next please!"
"Baby?" Springing forth a ditzy feeling throughout her being.
*Beep Beep*
The robotic server, slammed its metal fist on the counter "Next, please"
Jolting her head from her mini-celebration.
From behind, an average Joe tapped her shoulder "Hey, are you going to move? Or what?"
Sending him a sorry smile, she stepped to the counter.
*Beep* *Beep*
Its digital eyes flickered, scanning his new customer. "Hello, Ma'am"
"What would you like to have?"
Her eyes strained to the popcorn machines behind, then to the drinks and snacks below the glass count
Half way through the sixth period, Mr. Longford discussed quantum theories, his T-marker scribbled mind-blowing equations onto his holographic board.With a jittery foot, Draven nibbed his pen and shifted his gaze to the clock above. Draven thought 'Come on! Just a little more. Just two minutes more'He turned his head to the side and took a glance at his teammate. Unlike him, Blake continued copying down the equations on his tablet.His face contoured in anger; he released a helpless sigh. 'I guess, that's why he is just an extra. Zero ambition'Resting his face within his palm, he tapped the tiled floor. His bench partner hissed "Hey, can you keep it down? I can't afford to miss his explanation. It's worth half our grade"Disinterested eyes, he replied "Sure"Draven continued a minute later. Steam rose from his head but said nothing.His tapping soon grew louder, few students whispered "Yo, what's that noise?""It's him&helli
Strolling past the school gates, a massive hover bus descended before Coach Fredrickson, he solemnly stood with folded arms, sharp breeze fluttering the ends of his jacket.Turning around, surprise held his chubby face. "Thomas Longford. What's got ya coming to my yard?Mr. Longford took a brief glance at Draven, warning him to stay clear of their conversation.Mr. Longford crossed the distance between, and shook his hand. "Hello, Freddy. It isn't much I was wondering whether, he" he pointed his finger to Draven."Yes? Don't tell me he has gotten himself into more trouble?" Coach Fredrickson, clenched his teeth with a subtle shake of his head.Coach Fredrickson crumbled a mud-brown bus cap above his balding head. "Kids these days are always up to mischief"Mr. Longford gave an acute nod, said "Uh, well. I just wanted to check whether he is part of the school team"Coach Fredrickson exclaimed "Wait, he isn't in trouble?"<
The bus descended; skirting above the city, students gasped at the sights and clamored among themselves as they got closer to their destination. The bus announced "We will be reaching Squidid Highschool in two minutes"Coach Fredrickson's eyes flickered to the autonomous voice, waking from his nap. He stretched his arms and took a glance at his com."Ah, just on time" he muttered under his breath, his large hands clutched the bench rest and pulled himself to his feet.He walked to the front and cleared his throat, grasping his student's attention. Coach said "Listen up, guys! Before we get down, I need you, guys to make a promise"Few of them, blurted "Promise?" "Sir, what kind of promise?"His eyebrows waggled on his stern expression, Coach said "Yes, I want you guys to try to be on your best behavior"A boy exclaimed "That's it?"Coach said "Yes, that's it""What? Sir, that is too easy!""Yes, I know Brent but for some
While the team warmed up, spectators slowly filled the stadium full. Dressed in the jerseys of school team, the local spectators coloured the once white stands into purple and green. On enemy's ground, the team faced nothing but their undiluted discrimination.While they jogged around the field. Few of the radical fans started throwing trash and made sadical comments, raging the youngblood of Vernon High School's Hellhounds.Annoyed by their banter, Draven and Osborne shared a look and high-fived; mutually agreeing for the first time. Osborne soon scoffed and quickened his jog.Suddenly the crowd roared, frevently screaming waving their sign boards, as their opposition stepped outside and waved to the crowd before beginning their routine stretches and warm-ups.
Electric horn sounded off, marking the start of the match. The arena flickered, shunning their view of the spectators; almost like in another world. The teams clicked their badges and soon a blue light converged around their body and clothed them with a shiny light armour, styled in the school emblems. Draven admired his red glass armour with white highlights and two headed hellhounds on the right breast and no.17 on his back. Taking a glance at his teammates, he realized only he had a white stripe on his chest and on his right arm. Squidid Team attacked, firing water bullets from their fingers. Draven commanded, flaring a hand out. "Earth wall" An earth manipulator, stamped his feet, the Martian ground trembled, giving way to the growing wall, about two meters wide. "Blake ice mist" Draven commanded. The Blake ran, a ramp made of shadows appeared; he jumped off it and landed on the wall. Icicles froze his face wh
Under the crowds unceasing chants, hockey jocks skated through the ice, shoving their arms in a fierce struggle, as their stick tapped for the puck forward. No.13 of the Gridlions skated himself to the wall and swiftly pulled backs. Unable to stop the momentum, No.24 of the Hellhounds crashed into the wall. No.13 snickered and tapped the puck forward. Suddenly, a red flash bumped into his side and threw him down. "How does karma taste?" he stole his puck and skirted himself forward. Draven grinned and punched the air in approval. "Way to go! Anton" Sensing the presence of Gridlions's defenders in front. He slanted his back and tightly gripped his stick and dashed shuffling the puck. His eyes narrowed, as he dodged them with a feint to the left and continued to the right. Dribbling past them, one by one. He raised his head from his puck, and pushed himself further into the offensive side. He taped the puck forward, arching his stick up, h
Among the existing crowd, Draven whistled as he walked the streets by his in-tuned instincts. He dodged the after-match greasy fingers and corn breath. While he was occupied, pair of lens buzzed above and clicked his photo. He took a glimpse of the sky.Quickly, the drone ducked into the crowd. Seeing the sky empty, hsi muscles stiffened 'That's strange! Why do I feel someone watching me...'Draven whistled, he swiped a cap from an enthusiastic fan and framed in on his crown and purposely side bumped into a man and stole the letterman jacket hung on his forearm "Hey! Watch where you are going, buddy?""Sorry" Draven said, hiding his contempt behind an apologetic smile.Reckoning Draven was chicken, he grunted and turned around "You better be"In that moment, his quirky fingers pulled the jacket from his grip; unnoticed. Draven snickered and flipped the jacket over his shoulders and continued walking."Vernon, can you
“Are you trying hypnotise me? You viper!!!” Draven snickered and suddenly grasped her neck. “Aghh… Ah I don’t have… powers?” “Yeah, like as if I would believe that shit” Draven barked, tightening his grip. Her body heaved in a struggle; her hands threw punches. Draven sneered “Hehe how weak! What are you trying to pull?” “Please… please… let me go! I can’t…” “Can’t what?” “I can’t …. Breathe… I can’t breathe” "Like as if I am going to fall for that" In his head, Vernon shouted “Idiot what are you doing? Stop it” “Who are you calling an idiot?” “You!!!” “She can’t breathe you dummy! Let her go!” “Believe me, she doesn’t have powers” Draven narrowed his eyes and lifted her in the air “Tell me truth, do you have powers?” “Agh…Ah” “Fine, nod for a yes” She shook her head, Draven dropped her to the floor. “Ouch” Staring at him
