I ran as fast as I could, the bus was about to leave. I used every ounce of strength I had left. Thankfully, lady luck felt pity on my poor soul and allowed me to make the bus. I was a mess, like literally a bloody mess I ran so fast that my already messy hair became more visible causing the people of the bus to look at me like I was some trash that wondered into planet Earth by mistake.
Well I don't blame them, I was already ugly and with all the sweat coming down my face, I was definitely sure-no most definitely sure that I looked like a… I don't know, i will find another metaphor later.
I walked to the empty seat at the back of the bus, I heard whispers on the bus from everyone but specifically these two girls who talked trash about me in my damn face.
"gosh doesn't he know that some of us I trying to breathe" the girl with pink ponytail hair said.
She wore the exact same uniform I was wearing, I guess we where going to the same school. And I just got on THE WRONG FOOT!!!! ah please lady luck spare me from this horrible-luck that has followed me since birth. Okay not all hope is lost if I can just introduce myself then I am sure that every misunderstanding will be eradicated.
"um he-hello my name is-"
"stop I don't want to have the liberty of knowing your name" the other girl with short black hair said with a snort.
"o-okay" I said meekly
The bus soon came to a halt and I got off. Here I am at Charleston Academy. The savior school, most would call it. The school was created for the sole purpose of rescuing humans from the constant evolution of robots{AI}.YEAH YOU HEARD ME I AM LITERALLY STUCK IN SOME TERMINATOR SHIT!!!
The school was created to help humans fight against the rapid expansion of AI. It started fifty years ago, The World Government{Hun-dun} created a manhwa like system to help humans develop their abilities 20% more faster than normal.

Oh come on I thought that with nine years of slacking of my abilities will reduce more. Gosh is it hard to live a normal life,I was about to start monolouging about my miserable life when a got a hot smack in the back of my head.
"will you excuse me my good man?" a boy with brown hair that was twice my size who was looking at me with disgust, honestly I'm not even surprised, I get that look all the time from people. What I am most concerned was how to go about with this conversation. Should I go with a usual meek attitude? Or should I just feign innocence and make him pity me, well on second-on first thought I think the latter will be a horrible attempt, like who will ever feel pity a useless, good-for-nothing, negligible, worthless piece of turd.
"come on get the f*ck of the road" he yelled
Oh shit I thought time would slow down like how, it does with MC in manhwa and web novels. Well I can't blame him, I must have just stared at him for like forty seconds.
I quickly made short dash not before hearing some nasty comment that LADY LUCK JUST HAD TO MAKE ME HEAR!!!
"gosh bro he stared at you for like a minute, I think he's into you" one guy that has probably never ever met him said with a smirk, well congratulations my dude you just became a secondary lackey.
"gay boy on the first day?! well that's something"
"wasn't that the same guy that came to the bus late with that awful smell"
"that was a man! Heavens I thought that was some huge lost dog"
"he's even more ugly up close"
"and more disgusting"
"plus he f*cking gay"
" I knew it, I even saw him looking intently at my lower part"
"your what?"
"my lower part as in my d-"
"bro I know what you're talking about, but I not sure anyone has any interest in that"
" HEY WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN? HUH?"
"bro it's simple you have nothing under the-
Okay I think that enough, I continued running until I was lost. Wow what other tricks I you going to pull huh? Just F8CKING KILL ME ALREADY.
I was walking when I stumbled on a mask shop. I checked my wallet and you all can guess, I am broke. So I decide to do the only reasonable thing and that is to steal a mask.
There is no way I am going to class looking like this, like why can't I just replace my SSS+ skills with my charm.
Okay let's get back to topic, I am going to go in there just as someone opens the door slip in get the mask then come out before the door closes. Easy right? Yeah most definitely! I have a total of 0.00234 seconds to do that before being noticed, okay 3…2…1… and GO!
I arrived at class twelve minutes late.
"you're late" the teacher said, he was tall and have a handsome face that will make you hate him for absolutely no reason at all that is if you are a ugly loser like me.
" I apologize"
Wait did I not stammer? Wow what is happening? Did the mask give confidence?
"why are you wearing such a mask?" he asked with a stern look on his face
" is not allowed?"
" answer my question first young man"
" I like the mask" I said with a shrug
" I don't have time for this" he said while massaging the bridge of his nose.
" class! This is the new student, I know 90% of you went to Charleston's Junior High so you probably know about each other, please take good care of him and try not to kill him" the students giggled wickedly like a predator staring into the soul of his prey.
