章節 49: Target on the back
Wheeling out of his class, Hunter attracted quite a lot of stares and attention, but nothing he wasn't used to.
Some of the students were in uniform, notably black and a dark shade of red. The Third years in the former and the second years in the latter. The first years who were just admitted were given the color blue as some students could be seen wearing the uniform proudly.
At the top of the breast pocket was an emblem with their class letter. Most of the first years had theirs, the shiny tag gleaming under the sun.
"Hmm, the discrimination starts as soon as you get admitted". Hunter murmured as he saw the golden, silver and bronze. Without a need for divination, he knew what it all stood for. Which also meant that the bottom feeders had nothing.

"Hello Hayden ".
"Mhmm, okay, will be right there".
Quickly he tucked his phone into his pocket after ending the call and tapped the movement button on his machine. Navigating the school wasn't easy, especially when doing so in a wheel chair, but he was able to get there on time.
Outside was Hayden, standing beside the fountain that was situated outside the premises of the dormitories.
The fountain with a golden peacock statue, had four roads outstretched from it.
At the beginning of each road had a sign post that ranked from golden, silver, bronze and wood. A little ahead and one could see the beautiful well structured buildings. They were identical in all aspects, with difference in the interior. With class A been the best and also made bigger for each students than the others. Class D had it worse and none could either compare nor complain. But even with Class D supposed pathetic condition, the dormitories weren't bad, upon been compared to other schools. It was just that Class D had the standard furnishing and finishing, while others up above were more luxurious and extravagant.
"Hunter, been to your hostel yet" Hayden asked him as soon as he saw him.
"Not yet. How about you ?"
"Same. Let's go see mine first, then yours ".
With excitement on his face, he lead the way down the walkway leading to the Silver dormitory.
"Nice brother, congrats" Hunter said sincerely with a smile on his face.
he figured Hayden would be in bronze, due to him passing out before reaching the finishing line. But seeing him in Silver was a pleasant surprise and one he was glad for.
Upon getting into the hall, they took an elevator alongside other students. Some stared too long, both at his chair and at the twins face. The murmur of how they looked alike and hardly differentiable except from two things. Hairstyle and the other; legs.
Quickly, he pressed his index finger on the small screen attached to the door knob. He entered and was welcomed by the chilled air. The place was cool, clean and sparkling. They both checked everywhere and Hayden was once again impressed by what he saw. The room was like a pent house style, spacious enough for a sitting room, kitchen dining and a bedroom in it. While still having a stand in shower and bathtub in the toilet section.
This was luxury for a student, but then coming from an influential home, this wasn't anything new.
Hunter too was impressed. He was but a student, and people always say that in every world, students have it the hardest. Well if life is going to be tough at school, he had better have something to relax as the night loses its youth. But this was his brothers zone of comfort and space. This was not his, he hoped his wasn't as bad as it was been classified. I mean comparing wood to metals makes no logical sense.
It was okay. Basically furnished, with no extravagant niceties here and there. Nothing much to be asked for considering it was the bottom classification, and if one wasn't satisfied, everyone knew the rule. Get stronger and rise up above the ranking; it was that simple but never easy.
"Hunter I have got to tell you something ".
Seeing that Hayden had a serious look on his face, Hunter knew something bad had either happened or was about to happen.
"We need to go home Hunter, tomorrow or next. I spoke to Ophelia... "
"and ..."
"She sounded trobuled, but she did say if we were free we could come back. She didn't say why but I have got a terrible hunch man".
"Did you speak to Amelia?" Hunter asked.
"No, wasn't able to, but she said she was fine."
Hunter breathed in a sigh of relief. Yes, he knew he had a soft spot for her, was it because she reminded him of Annie ? but all he wanted to do was to protect her, at all cost.
"I thought she was Sarah?"
"Sorry?" Hayden looked at him.
"Oh sorry, I got carried away there . Let's leave tomorrow."
"Alright then" Hayden acknowledged, and with a nod walked out of the room.

"Knock knock" Some shouted out loud as he banged Hunter's room door twice.
"Who's there ?" Hunter called out.
"Santa boy, Santa's here with gifts, for been a good boy today ". A voice that sounded familiar.
'Wasn't that the guy who mocked my classmates for the paper in their mouth, shit' Hunter thought to himself. He knew it was time to pay his dues, yes he knew it was coming. Definitely there ought to be backlash for that humiliation, what he didn't expect was that it would be sooner if not, he would have prepared.
'Anyways it is what it is' he thought to himself as he replied them.
"Oh Santa, that's pretty fast. I mean the year just started !"
"Ha ha ha , funny kid, you are right"
Immediately his door was pushed open violently, the lock of the door broken by the force applied on the door.
"Ho! ho! ho! get him!"
Immediately, the boys rushed towards him.
Whipping out two pencils and holding it in his hands like short daggers he muttered under his breathe.
"Not going down without a fight".
Somewhere dark, cold and quiet was a young boy sitting with his knees folded up and his chest pressed against it, with hands crossed over the knee top and head resting on top of his arms.
He looked up at the scene before him and couldn't help but laugh out loud as he commented.
"What the fuck is he thinking fighting with pencils, motherfucker thinks he's John Wick ?"
"They are lucky its not me, they are lucky I'm not out yet" He pause as he broke into a huge fit of laughter that one would think it was caused by a joke and not just his crazy thoughts.
"But soon, soon, they will fear us" He said with a evil smirk as he bowed his head once again like it was time for prayers.
