Fate Online: Shadow

The woman called Emma immediately pulled Athena to the side and whispered to her ear, "Who's that hottie with you?"

"Hottie? Him?" Tina giggled like she just heard the biggest joke of the year when she heard that her friend actually thinks that Michael is hot.

"Yes, him, are you blind or what?" Emma said while raising an eyebrow.

Tina scoffed at her and turned towards her other friend and said, "Do you agree with her Casey?"

The dirty blonde haired woman, wearing glasses called Casey put her phone in her bag then looked at Michael who's busy looking around, then back at her friends, "Well...he's somewhat kind of hot if you ask me, so yeah"

"Tsk! Let's just go!" Tina clicked her tongue in annoyance as she can't really understand why they think Michae is hot...even though he's not?

"Michael! Let's go!" Tina called out to him.

Michael just sighed and followed behind the three girls, 'My teachers here probably won't notice me from how much I've changed right? It's been six years though. I wonder if my old teachers are still teaching here?'

The group then passed through multiple stalls in the front entrance of the school, some groups of students are selling beverages, crafted items and even cakes are sold at the stalls, some are even offering photo booths for people to take a picture of themselves.

'Its so weird looking at these students doing this kind of things' Michael chuckled as he kept looking around him.

'I'm amazed though, at the principal's ability to make the students do these things. I wonder if she threatened the students that they will receive a failing mark if they don't participate? Kekeke, she's really devious if she really did that'

Michael have devious grin on his face, as someone who studied in this school before, he knows how troublesome the kids here are, because almost all of them are troublesome kids who always gets into trouble and even Michael wasn't an exception before, and they did a lot of stupid things!

"Eh?"

Michael suddenly noticed something wrong, "Where the heck are they?"

'Damn, it seems my skills are getting rusty that I didn't even notice that the three girls are already gone' Michael sighed to himself, and at the same time, frustrated with his current ability.

'Ahh, this is the reason why I didn't want to come with her' Michael just sighed to himself helplessly, so he just went around the school and tried to enjoy the festivities by himself.

Michael started to slowly enjoy the festivities, he ate and drank anything that looks good.

Bang!

"You can do it babe!"

"Faster James! Just a little bit more and you'll get pass him!"

The cheering amongst the crowd almost annoyed Michael to death, as people kept screaming their lungs out, especially the girls cheering for their boyfriends.

"Ohh, that guy sure ran fast" Michael said while drinking a milk tea on his hand while watching the four hundred meter track and field race in front of him, as he tried to ignore the noisy people around him.

'This is slowly getting boring, I should find Tina now and see what she's up to right now' Michael thought as he stood up and left the stands of the football stadium, and started to look around the school for Tina and the other girls.

"Where the heck is she anyway?" Michael grumbled as he arrived inside the basketball gym, where an ongoing match is currently going on between two different teams.

And just as he stepped inside, he immediately spotted two male students bothering Tina and her friends, Michael narrowed his eyes and quickly walked over to them.

'Is it just me or trouble just loves me?' Michael grumbled.

"Hey, come on. It's gonna be fun" said the guy wearing a black cap to Tina and tried to hold her hand but Tina immediately moved her hand away and continued to just ignored him and instead focus her attention at the ongoing basketball match in front of her.

"Emma, tell Tina that the place is gonna be fun" seeing that Tina is practically ignoring him, he instead turned towards the blonde haired beauty, Emma.

Emma glared at him, said with annoyance in her voice, "Just stop it Mark, if she doesn't want to go with you, then don't force her and I also never agreed that I'm coming with you guys, so stop bothering us!"

"Calm down, men are like that, they're like leeches to beauties like us" Casey said while glaring at the two guys.

"Ohhh, come on, that place is gonna be fun" the brown haired guy, sporting a crew cut hair said, and then he and Mark threw a quick glance with each other with a knowing glint in their eyes, but the malicious glint in their eyes didn't escape Michael's notice.

"How old are you?"

Suddenly, the cold voice of a man sounded beside the blonde haired man.

Marc was suddenly startled that he immediately turned towards the person beside him, and saw a good looking man wearing an almost black colored clothes, smiling while looking at him.

"18, what's it got to do with you?" Marc snorted in annoyance.

Michael's grinned became so wide that it almost reached his ears.

"Good!"

Marc's eyes suddenly widened in shock at the incoming fist that's coming straight towards his face!

BAM!

"Ahh!" Marc immediately screamed in pain, as he held his bleeding mouth and nose!

"Michael!"

Tina and the others quickly moved out of there, and looked at the scene in shock that even the players playing in the court immediately stopped what they're doing and looked at the scene unfolding before their eyes.

And the teachers and the parents that suppose to be enjoying the match in the gym are all still in a state of shock that they forgot to immediately step in and stop the fight.

"Motherf*cker!" the brown haired guy quickly came to his senses and immediately lunged towards him, and executed a flying kick that's heading towards Michael's face.

"Hmmp!"

Michael just snorted and just when the kick was about to land on his face, he quickly took a step back and slapped the guy's foot downwards, causing the guy to immediately fall hard on the cold hard floor.

"Stop this madness right now!"

Suddenly, an angry voice resounded within the gym, and when the people looked towards where the voice came from, they saw well built bald headed black man, sporting a red tracksuit while angrily walking towards Michael and the rest.

"Shit!"

Michael clicked his tongue the moment his eyes laid on the man.

"Can somebody tell me what happened here!?" the man stood before Michael and yelled in front of his face, then turned his gaze towards the people around them.

Some people back away while shaking their heads, while some had faces that doesn't really care at what's happening and there are also others with their phones out and filming what's currently happening in front of them.

"And you! I haven't seen you before, are you a student here?"

"I was..six years ago?"

"Hmmp! You think that's funny huh?"

"Mr. Jackson, he's with me!" Tina immediately stepped in and started explaining what happened.

Michael just ignored them and looked towards Marc and his companion, he grinned coldly at them.

"Hey, did you even know who you had beaten up?" Emma walked over beside Michael and said.

"No, and I don't care"

"Hmmp! The one you punched in the face is the son of the PTA president and the other guy is the son of one of the city councilors"

"So?" Michael wasn't even bothered by her revelation.

Emma was annoyed by his attitude, and immediately ignored him and quickly went over to Mr. Jackson and explained how the event happened.

"You were awesome" Casey said, and sent him a flirtatious look as she followed behind Emma.

Michael just smiled at her, and wasn't even a bit bothered that Tina's friend is hitting on him.

A few moments later.

"Marc and Greg, you two are getting detention for a whole week after this!" Mr. Jackson turned towards the two and made a shocking decision that even baffled those people around them, especially those people who were near them and saw that Michael was the one who attacked them first.

"What!? But he's the one who suddenly attacked us first!"

"Shut up! Don't think I don't know what you two are up to!" Mr. Jackson glared at them, which made the two students boiled with anger, some of the parents and especially the teachers around them didn't dare to interfere in Jackson's decision as they know how fiery his temper is, and that even the old school principal can't control him.

"This is not over yet, you hear me!?" Marc instead turned his anger and yelled towards Michael, as he and his companion along with their friends that just recently arrived, left the gym while threatening Michael.

"You're always welcome to try punk"

Michael grinned, as a flash of cold glint appeared in his eyes, and he made sure to engraved their appearances in his mind.
