43 Boys (2/2)

”Why are you so calm?”

Axel was quickly taken out of his thoughts as Morgana asked him a question. He seriously mulled over it for a second before saying, ”I don't know. I guess after everything I've been through, something like this is just… meh.”

Axel was obviously only talking about the sudden change in hiw everyday life. From a loving home and family to surviving in a monster infested forest, not many things could surprise him anymore.

Morgana saw the melancholy on Axel's face and became quiet, thinking he brought something up that Axel didn't like talking about.

Luckily, Axel reassured him everything was alright as he smiled and said, ”But, not all things were bad. I may have lost the only home I knew but I gained a very lovable girlfriend and a great comrade.”

Both Axel and Morgana were brought out of their conversation with a loud bang, accompanied by Ryuji's voice as he cheered, ”Hell yeah! We can finally leave!”

In a couple minutes, everyone was outside. Ryuji, being who he is, cheered with a huge smile on his face like a man who just escaped prison. Akira was relatively calm with a relieved smile plastered to his face.

Morgana began talking about going back in before waving goodbye to Axel and the boys, much to Axel's confusion. In the game, Morgana was supposed to ask them for there help only to be rejected by Ryuji and Akira before they left for school.

However, Axel didn't really mind as he will definitely be back for the experi- *cough* I mean, to help Akira and Ryuji.

Putting all here thoughts to the back of his head, Axel decided to tackle the current problem that they faced.

”Akira, Ryuji. We need to talk.”

Seeing Axel's serious look, the boys silently waited for Axel to continue.

”We're late for school.”

Just as the boys were about to berate him for bringing up such a topic now, Axel frowned as he said, ”Remember, Akira is on house-arrest. What do you think the court will think with him missing the first period?”

Akira suddenly paled as he muttered, ”Oh no…”

Ryuji finally realised how serious of an issue this is and panicked. Lucky for them, Axel had a plan.

With a mischievous look on his face, Axel slowly explained his plan while suppressing his laughter. At the end, both Akira and Ryuji also adapted mischievous looks as they praised Axel for his genius.

Now, all thay had to do was implement the plan…

Outside the gate stood an irritated Kamoshida and a yawning Kawakami. He guessed that Kamoshida was most likely the teacher on duty while Kawakami was waiting for the new student, Akira.

Looking back, he recieved a nod from Akira and Ryuji as they supported themselves on Akira's shoulder.

Walking towards the gate with heavy steps, the first person to notice them was Kamoshida. Before he could even get a word out, he choked as he looked at the mess before him.

The boys were covered in dust and dirt while small traces of blood could be seen. After they got to the gate, Axel explained that some idiot pushed them down a flight of stairs.

Kamoshida suppressed the smile threating to burst on his face while Kawakami actually lost her usual laziness. With worry present in her eyes she actually excused the boys from the next period of class and forced them to rest in the infirmary.

When they passed the teachers, Axel, Akira and Ryuji all had victorious smiles on their faces.
