Because someone got into my profile thingamabob, my chapter 1 was deleted. And is (or was) currently not on my site. So here it is again:
“Sodium carbonide… That is such an odd choice. I wonder if that is a bold compound.”
Ryu was always sort of a geek. He was totally in to science and math. Had the trademark glasses and everything. He was even reading science books of his own free will in the mall. Nothing like his father Goku Jr., much less his legendary great great grandfather Goku. Now that was a name to live up to. Fortunetly he didn’t have to. Times had changed. There was no more need to save the world. Sure, being part saiyan meant he had some power, but it was essiantly useless to Ryu. And plus it was dormant. He couldn’t even use it if he wanted to, not that he knew.
He liked to wear red and white. Those were his two favorite colors. And he kept his hair sort of long too. Not like a girls hair, but like a long boy’s hair.
Suddenly, two French fries covered in ketchup flew past Ryu’s face. He looked towards where they were thrown from.
“Give it to me two times! Ha ha!”
“You crazy!”
Fred Thalamus, and Charles Breedy. The two sophomore bullies. Fred was a blond and blue eyed, but not Arian, jockey. He was like the star of the school football team. Very cocky, and arrogant, always thinking he’s better than other people. Charles Breedy was a chubby fellow. The typical white boy. Fat, buzz cut, freckles, striped shirt and jeans. He’s Fred’s “lackey” so to speak.
“So I said: ‘What did he say?’ She said he said his cell phone was broken. What a dog, right?”
“Uh-huh.”
Lizzie Larramie, and Brieanna Jordan. Probably the two hottest girls in Ryu’s grade. Lizzie had bleach blonde hair, and always loved to talk. She hung out with people like Fred Thalamus, or some other high school jerk. Brieanna Jordan, was kind of quiet. She always kept her grades up. Not a straight A student or anything like that. Just As and Bs and the occasional C. Ryu liked her a lot but he never said anything to her about her. He always thought she deserved better.
“So I told her to tell him drop dead! Right?” Lizzie said.
Meanwhile, Brieanna and Ryu were locked. They both liked each other, but neither of them knew that. They were locked into each others eyes. Ryu smiled nervously.
This time 4 french fries hit him in the face. But at least they weren’t covered in ketchup.
“That’s a five pointer!” Fred said.
“Nuh-uh! I’d give it a four.” Charles replied.
Ryu quietly collected himself. He fixed his glasses which had slid down his nose a little ways, and closed his book. He was so embarresed.
“I’m going to try on tops. Coming?” Lizzie asked.
“What? Uh… No. No, I gotta…” Brieanna started to say.
“Study. Yeah, duh. What else is new in the world of Brainy Brie? I’m gone.” Lizzie said.
Brieanna stared at Ryu looking down at the ground. She saw how he just held his book in his hands, and stared blankly at his lap. Brieanna drooped her head a little wishing she could do something. Ryu was so alone, and there was nothing she could think to of to cheer him up.
A beef bean burrito came flying out of nowhere. It hit Ryu like a bomb. It almost literally exploded. Fred and Charles stared at Ryu with hopeful glee. Ryu looked up at them with great sadness in his eyes.
“Slam it home, Charles!” Fred exclaimed.
“GOOOAAL!” Charles shouted.
“You guys are such idiots. Really!” one girl commented.
Someone put a hand on Ryu’s shoulder.
“Hey, Ryu…”
It was Ryu’s grandfather Gohan. He was about the age of 67 now, retired. He commonly wore glasses these days. It was prescribed by his doctor.
“Grandpa? What… What are you doing here? I thought you were just dropping me off.” Ryu said.
“Isn’t that Brieanna over there? I needed some pants so I bought some pants. Why isn’t Brieanna sitting over here?” Gohan asked.
“Brie… Brieanna?” Ryu asked nervously.
“Get over her, girl! Don’t you look like a million dollars.” Gohan said as Brieanna started to get up.
Brieanna smiled and walked over to Gohan and Ryu.
“Doesn’t she look fab, Ryu?” Gohan asked.
“Yeah, sure. Of… of course.” Ryu replied kind of happily embarrassed.
Gohan turned towards Fred and Charles. He gave them a mean stare. Fred brushed him off with a flick of his hand, and Charles looked away.
“Hey, Brieanna, how’d that science whatchamazoot doohickey project you and Ryu were working on go?” Gohan asked.
“Ryu didn’t tell you?” Brieanna asked.
“Oh… I didn’t want to bore him with…?”
“I think we did good.” Brieanna said interrupting Ryu.
“You did great. You always do.”
Thanx for reading
