YM778.TV Chapter 47 - Damsel
It was as if he sensed Charlus\' gaze on him. Brody looked up to meet Charlus\' gaze. Charlus nodded and Brody nodded back. Charlus looked away. He smiled, thinking that life would be interesting. The students here were very high levelled compared to at Lewisville. Even more levelled than the gang members. Charlus found this amusing.
The bell rang. Charlus looked down at his schedule and saw the room number for his next class. He stood up and went to his next class. He was able to find his class easily.
Time passed quickly and it was already lunchtime. Charlus went to the cafeteria to look for Eva. He was interested in exploring the school that he was forcibly transferred into.
On the way, he bumped into Lucie.
"Nice to see you here, Lucie. How was class?" Charlus smiled at Lucie.
"You need to stick with me. That guy you pissed off has a lot of friends." Lucie grabbed Charlus\' hand and tried to pull him with her but he didn\'t budge. He pulled his hand back and Lucie came crashing into Charlus. But Charlus\' body stood till and he just helped Lucie stand.
"I am pretty sure I will be fine. If you will excuse me, I have a date." Charlus walked past Lucie into the cafeteria. He was able to find Eva very quickly. He went to her and sat beside her.
"Charlus! I didn\'t notice you." Eva was sitting alone so no one warned her that Charlus was coming from behind her.
"Are you done with lunch?" Charlus asked her.
"Just give me a few minutes. You should eat too."
"Oh, I\'m done. I\'m waiting on you, but no hurry." Charlus just sat there watching Eva eat. He checked his phone from time to time. After 10 minutes, Eva was done with her lunch.
"Are you sure you want to do this? There\'s not a lot to see in this school. I\'m pretty sure you saw most of it by now." Eva didn\'t want to take Charlus around the school but Charlus insisted.
"Come on. A promise is a promise." Charlus took Eva\'s hand and lifted her from the chair she was sitting on. He pushed her forward out of the cafeteria and forcibly started the tour.
Eva reluctantly started giving the tour.
"The hallway is pretty standard. You probably didn\'t get your locker yet but you will get it by the end of the week. We have a few spare lockers. We had a couple of students... leave our school."
Charlus looked around and saw the passerby\'s giving him very strange looks. He looked around and figured out that they weren\'t giving strange looks at him. They were looking at Eva.
Charlus looked at Eva who was slightly trembling while talking.
"So where\'s the gym? You guys have a court right?" Charlus asked Eva.
"We do. But I think it\'s closed right now."
Charlus shook his head.
"Lunch is till 1:30 PM. That gives us... 30 minutes more. They probably keep the gym open for students to play during this time."
Eva shook her head. "It\'s closed. I don\'t like our gym anyways."
"Your call. What else is there to see? You have labs right?"
Eva\'s faced relaxed. "We do. I will take you to them right now."
Charlus asked some questions to make the walk less boring.
"So what year are you in?" Charlus asked her.
"I\'m a junior. I\'m taking Math, Physics and Language Honors. I\'m taking PE and History as well."
Charlus chuckled at the reply. "That\'s a lot of honor classes. I will depend on you for study tips. I\'m a senior by the way."
They arrived at the lab. It was very neat, but also occupied. There were 7 boys playing with the flasks there. Eva, who had relaxed from her tensed state in the hallway became tense again. She grabbed Charlus\' hand and started running in the opposite direction.
Charlus just followed Eva and ran along with her. It only took her 2 minutes to get exhausted. She had dragged Charlus to an alley outside the school.
"Could you bother to answer a few questions?" Charlus asked with a loud voice. His voice sounded very threatening and Eva was scared.
"I\'m sorry about that-"
"He wasn\'t talking to you, bitch. It\'s strange to see someone strangely interesting in this school."
The 7 boys that Charlus had seen in the labs surrounded Eva and Charlus from both sides in the alley. The one leading them was a tall Mexican boy with a sleeveless shirt and shorts.
"Didn\'t I tell you to stop hanging around with people that will degrade you my love."
The boy stepped forward towards Eva. He continued speaking. "Then why are you talking with this boy you slut!"
The boy roared and swung his palm at Eva\'s face.
SMACK!
Before the boy could hit Eva, Charlus\' hand swung out, hitting the boy with such force that he was shot away like a cannon ball.
Every body watched with awe as the boy crashed into the wall behind him. The wall collapsed to the sheer strength of Charlus\' blow. Charlus clapped his hands together, as if he was trying to get rid of the dust on it.
"That was pretty strong boy. I find you more interesting. But it was uncalled for. I am disciplining my lass here. It\'s not your problem." The boy stood up from the rubble of the wall, seemingly untouched from the entire incident. He talked to Charlus with a cold, threatening tone.
Charlus chuckled. "This lady, Ms Eva, is my date for the afternoon. I am required to keep her safe, as does any gentleman who take a lady out. You should up your game if you want more call backs."
Eva was just watching this all with a surprised expression plastered all over her face. The boy however was unimpressed.
"Tell me, this isn\'t about her at all right? Who wanted you to get to me?"
Charlus smiled. "Perhaps god himself."

"Just give me a few minutes. You should eat too."
Charlus was just waiting casually when he heard a notification. He was familiar with this notification and checked it immediately.
