Tyler looked down at his paper, biting his lip a little as he did so, “Uh… D06? I’ve got someone called Mr Johnson…”

"Oh, he's just down here, come on," Bryan said softly, beckoning the other and walking towards a set of steps.

“Thanks!” Tyler smiled, falling into step beside him, “I-I’m Tyler.” He said after a moment.

Bryan nodded to his thanks and looked up. "I'm Bryan. It's nice to meet you. Are you new here?"

Tyler nodded and rebbes at the back of his neck, chuckling nervously, “Yeah, I am. Is it obvious?”

Bryan smiled faintly. "Yeah, kinda. Everyone kinda knows their way around, so… It's not your fault you're clueless, though. This place is huge."

“Agreed. This place is a lot bigger then my last school so I’m not used to it,” He sighed, shaking his head a little, “I’ll find my way around eventually.”

"That's what everyone says," Bryan said with a faint smile. "You'll learn the map, the teachers, the students…"

"Are the students nice? Anybody I need to look out for?" He asked, glancing at Bryan for a moment.

Bryan sighed and looked down at the steps as they cleared them. "Everyone. For me, at least." He stuck his hands in his pockets. "If you asked someone else, they'd say my name."

Tyler frowned a little, “What? Why? You don’t seem like a bad person…”

"I don't have magic," The boy said dully, pausing near a room and pointing. "The room's up there. I guess I'll see you around."

“Woah woah woah, wait,” Tyler stopped him, a look of disbelief on his face, “Magic? Magic doesn’t exist.”

"Yes it does," Bryan said with a small blink. "Everyone has Magic. Even little Mary E. who can attract animals from wherever she is." He pointed to a rather small girl whose shoulders were covered in birds.

Tyler looked over to the girl he pointed too, though he still believed it was some kind of joke, “You’re joking, right? This is just some prank the whole school is in on.”

Bryan shook his head. "I wish. Then I wouldn't be an outcast, but that's not how it is, huh? Well, have a good class." He slouched away along the hall.

Tyler wanted to continue asking questions, but Bryan was gone before he had a chance. Plus, he was going to be late to class. Sighing, he reluctantly went into the room.

(Skip to lunch?)

Lunch came around too quickly. Hormonal teenagers bursting through the doors to get the best food there was, which wasn’t much. A group of boys, one twiddling a flame round his fingers, spotted Bryan in the crowd immedietly, “Hey loser! Found ya powers yet or has your mind decided to give up on you entirely?” The guy, Jason, walked up to him with a shit eating grin.

Bryan had his nose inquisitively stuck in a book, trying to hide himself more than usual as he walked with the crowd. Unfortunately, he had been pushed to the edge. He tried not to freeze in place and hastily walked faster.
Ignore him, ignore him…

Jason roiled his eyes and walked over, being bigger and slightly taller then Bryan, it was easy to catch up, “Oi, answer me when I’m speaking to you dumbass.”
